Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of constant temperature shaker technology, specifically to an adjustable bottle rack and a water bath constant temperature shaker containing the bottle rack. Background Technology

[0002] A water bath constant temperature shaker is a widely used experimental device in fields such as biology, chemistry, and medicine. It provides a stable temperature environment and a hybrid power for sample reactions through constant temperature control and shaking. In experiments such as cell culture, enzyme reactions, dissolution, or extraction, it is often necessary to process a large number of sample vials simultaneously in batches.

[0003] However, current water bath constant temperature shaking incubators have the following problems: When it is necessary to change the test bottle rack of different widths to meet experimental needs, multiple bolts must be disassembled and installed with the help of tools. This process involves a lot of operations and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. When processing large batches of test bottles in groups, after each group of test bottles is shaken, the test bottles on the rack must be removed one by one before the next batch of test bottles is placed on top. During this period, the entire shaker equipment must be stopped and the replacement operation must be completed, resulting in low equipment utilization and dragging down the overall experimental efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable bottle rack and a water bath constant temperature shaker containing the bottle rack, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: An adjustable bottle rack and a water bath constant temperature shaker containing the bottle rack are disclosed, comprising a shaker body and side arms on both sides, wherein the shaker further comprises: an adjustable clamping mechanism for adjustablely clamping bottle racks of different widths; and a self-locking mechanism for automatically locking the adjustable clamping mechanism in its adjustable state by its own weight when the adjustable clamping mechanism is placed on the side arms; the adjustable clamping mechanism includes a shaking plate for carrying the bottle racks and a clamping tooth for clamping the shaking plate.

[0006] Preferably, the adjusting clamping mechanism further includes a vertical arm, a movable block, a lead screw, and a guide frame. The vertical arm is connected between the clamping teeth and the movable block. The movable block is connected to the lead screw via a nut assembly and is slidably mounted on the guide frame.

[0007] Preferably, a gear is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw, and a knob for driving its rotation is fixedly connected to one side of the gear.

[0008] Preferably, the self-locking mechanism includes a short vertical rod fixedly connected to the side arm and a toothed plate that meshes with the gear component.

[0009] Preferably, the guide frame has a hole through which a short vertical rod passes, and the short vertical rod passes through the hole and contacts the toothed plate.

[0010] Preferably, a spring is fitted onto the short vertical rod, and the spring is connected between the toothed plate and the guide frame.

[0011] Preferably, there are four clamping teeth, and the four clamping teeth are distributed at the four corners of the rocker plate.

[0012] Preferably, the rocker plate and the clamping teeth are in contact via a slot.

[0013] Preferably, the adjusting clamping mechanism has two sets of clamping teeth, vertical arms, moving blocks, and lead screws, which are symmetrically arranged on the guide frame. The two sets of lead screws are fixedly connected by shafts to achieve synchronous rotation.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: With an adjustable clamping and self-locking mechanism, the traditional bolt fixing method is replaced. Operators can quickly complete the installation and disassembly of the test bottle rack without the use of tools, which simplifies the operation steps and reduces the operation intensity and time cost. The test bottles to be processed can be preloaded onto multiple spare test bottle racks. When a set of experiments is completed, there is no need to pick up and put down the test bottles one by one during the equipment operation interval. The entire rack of the completed batch of test bottles can be taken out as a whole and quickly replaced with a spare rack loaded with the next batch of test bottles. This minimizes the equipment downtime and achieves near-continuous batch processing, improving equipment utilization and overall experimental efficiency. By utilizing its own working state, the adjustment mechanism automatically enters the locking state. This design effectively prevents the clamping from loosening due to vibration in a continuous oscillating environment, avoids the risk of the test bottle rack coming loose, and ensures the stability of operation and experimental safety. The adjustment mechanism can easily adapt to test bottle racks of different widths, enabling one device to meet the needs of various experimental vessels and sample capacities, thus expanding the application range of the device.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] One embodiment of this utility model is provided: An adjustable bottle rack and a water bath constant temperature shaker containing the bottle rack, comprising a shaker body 11, wherein side arms 12 are provided on both sides of the shaker body 11, and further comprising: Adjusting the clamping mechanism 2 and the self-locking mechanism 3, the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 and the self-locking mechanism 3 are used for; The adjusting clamping mechanism 2 includes a rocking plate 21 for clamping test bottles. The rocking plate 21 is provided with a toothed clamping member 22. A vertical arm 23 is fixedly connected to the toothed clamping member 22. A moving block 24 is fixedly connected to one end of the vertical arm 23 away from the toothed clamping member 22. A lead screw 25 is connected to the moving block 24 through a nut pair. A guide frame 26 is slidably contacted on the outside of the moving block 24. Gears 27 are fixedly connected to both ends of the lead screw 25. A knob 28 is fixedly connected to one side of the gear 27.

[0019] The rocker plate 21 and the clamping teeth 22 are in contact through a slot. There are four clamping teeth 22, and the four clamping teeth 22 are distributed at the four corners of the rocker plate 21. The vertical arm 23 is connected between the moving block 24 and the clamping teeth 22. The two ends of the lead screw 25 are connected by bearings and guide frame 26.

[0020] The self-locking mechanism 3 includes a short vertical rod 31, one end of which contacts a toothed plate 32, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a side arm 12. A spring is sleeved on the short vertical rod 31, and the spring is connected between the toothed plate 32 and the guide frame 26. The toothed plate 32 meshes with a gear component 27.

[0021] The guide frame 26 has a hole corresponding to the short vertical rod 31, and the short vertical rod 31 passes through the hole of the guide frame 26 and contacts the toothed plate 32.

[0022] Working principle: Depending on different usage requirements, the swivel plate 21 of different widths can be replaced. When facing the swivel plate 21 of different widths, the knob 28 can be rotated. The rotation of the knob 28 drives the gear component 27 and the lead screw component 25 to rotate together. In turn, the nut pair drives the moving block 24 to move along the axis of the lead screw component 25, thereby adapting to the swivel plate 21 of different widths. The vertical arm 23 and the clamping tooth component 22 are used to install the swivel plate 21 by clamping. The four clamping teeth component 22 can clamp the four corners of the swivel plate 21 through the slots. With the position adjustment of the moving block 24, the swivel plate 21 can be stably clamped to achieve the purpose of installation.

[0023] Furthermore, the vertical arm 23, the moving block 24, the lead screw 25, the gear 27, the knob 28, and the self-locking mechanism 3 are provided in two sets and are symmetrically arranged on the guide frame 26. The two sets of lead screw 25 are fixedly connected by shafts. Therefore, when one set of lead screw 25 rotates, it will drive the other set of lead screw 25 to rotate together. Since the two sets of lead screw 25 are symmetrically arranged, when the two sets of lead screw 25 rotate in the same direction, the two sets of moving blocks 24 and the vertical arm 23 will move relative to each other or towards each other, thereby clamping the rocker plate 21.

[0024] After the rocker plate 21 is installed in place, the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 is placed directly on the side arm 12 and the self-locking mechanism 3. The short vertical rod 31 needs to pass through the hole on the guide frame 26. The end of the short vertical rod 31 away from the side arm 12 will contact the toothed plate 32. Then, the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 is released. Under its own weight, the short vertical rod 31 will rise against the toothed plate 32, thereby allowing the gear 27 to mesh with the toothed plate 32. When the gear 27 and the toothed plate 32 are meshed, the side arm 12, the adjusting clamping mechanism 2, and the self-locking mechanism 3 will all shake when the whole device is working. The meshing of the toothed plate 32 and the gear 27 can lock the lead screw 25, thereby preventing the clamping of the rocker plate 21 from loosening during operation.

[0025] Meanwhile, when it is necessary to remove the adjusting clamping mechanism 2, the self-locking mechanism 3, and the test bottle, the device can be lifted directly to remove the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 and the test bottle. Subsequently, the test bottle can be removed or a different shaking plate 21 can be replaced. In the prior art, when the shaker is performing batch processing on a large number of test bottles, multiple shaking plates 21 can be used to place the test bottles in the shaking plates 21. After each shaking plate 21 has finished shaking, the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 is lifted out, and the clamping on the shaking plate 21 is directly released before clamping the next shaking plate 21. Then, the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 is placed on the side arm 12 and the self-locking mechanism 3. During the placement process, the position of the vertical arm 23 and the moving block 24 in the adjusting clamping mechanism 2 is automatically locked. After being lifted out, it can be automatically released, which facilitates the release of the clamping on the shaking plate 21 and makes it easy to replace the shaking plate 21.

[0026] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
