Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of microbial experimental equipment technology, specifically a microbial experimental workbench that facilitates the storage of tools. Background Technology

[0002] Microbiological experiments require various experimental tools such as inoculation loops, pipettes, and petri dishes, as well as various experimental consumables such as test tubes and reagent bottles. Existing microbiological lab benches typically only have basic operational functions and lack dedicated storage structures for tools and consumables. This leads to tools being placed haphazardly and consumables being piled up haphazardly. This not only occupies a significant amount of operating space and affects the smoothness of experimental operations but also easily causes tool collisions and damage, consumable mix-ups and misuse, and may even lead to tool contamination due to exposure, affecting the accuracy of experimental results. Furthermore, if waste generated during experiments (such as discarded culture media and contaminated swabs) is not collected promptly, it can easily come into contact with experimental tools and consumables, increasing the risk of cross-contamination. Post-experiment cleaning also requires additional external water supply, resulting in insufficient convenience. While some existing lab benches have added simple drawers, they lack dedicated internal partitioning, failing to achieve categorized and orderly storage of tools and consumables, and thus failing to meet the requirements of cleanliness, sterility, and efficiency in microbiological experiments. Therefore, we propose a microbiological lab bench with convenient tool storage to address the problems mentioned in the background. Utility Model Content
