Description

Cell sample centrifuge container

This creation belongs to the field of medical bioassay technology, especially about a centrifugal container for cell specimens for laboratory analysis.

In medical biological research, centrifugal technology is often used to collect cell samples in order to efficiently make cell smears. During centrifugation, centrifugal force is used to separate the cells from the sediment and throw them onto the glass slide. The centrifugal force will flatten the cell structure so that the nucleus and nucleoli can be observed more clearly, and the slides that need to be observed can also be removed. , Use the corresponding dye for dyeing.

The conventional centrifugal smearing device is equipped with a centrifugal smearing specimen container holder, which is used to hold the container, the sealing member, and the glass slide containing the liquid specimen. Chinese Patent No. 110799825 discloses a specimen container holder that is convenient to operate and easy to assemble. It has a base for accommodating specimen containers, seals, and glass slides in a stacked state, and uses a holder with a handle , It can be rotated and clamped on the base in a rotating manner, which can prevent a gap between the specimen container, the sealing member, and the glass slide, which may cause the liquid specimen to leak to the outside. However, in order to achieve a tight fixation of the specimen container and the seal, the structure of the specimen container holder is easily broken under long-term clamping.

Therefore, there is still room for improvement and development in the above-mentioned prior art.

In view of this, the main purpose of this creation is to provide a centrifugal container for cell samples, which uses a buckle structure to combine the cup holder and the bottom plate, and the base surface of the cup holder is provided with an elastically bendable pressing sheet , The duct of the collecting part is connected to the pressed sheet, which can be closely attached to the bottom plate due to the protruding force during the fastening process, which greatly improves the tightness of the cup holder and the bottom plate.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a centrifugal container for cell samples, which includes a cup holder and a bottom plate. Wherein, the cup holder includes a base and a collecting part. The base has a downwardly curved bearing surface. The center of the bearing surface is provided with a pressing piece. A plurality of cut grooves are provided along the circumference of the pressing piece to make the pressing piece elastically bend. The bottom end of the collecting part There is a conduit connected to the opening of the pressing sheet, and a buckle part is respectively provided on both sides of the base. Both sides of the bottom plate are respectively provided with a buckle, the buckle is used to press force to buckle with the buckle part to connect the cup holder to the bottom plate, and the pipe orifice of the collecting part will be subjected to force Protruding from the opening and tightly attached to the bottom plate.

In this embodiment, a filter paper 40 may be further disposed above the glass slide 30 for solid-liquid separation.

Among them, the cup holder 10 is mainly composed of a base 11 and a collecting portion 12. The base 11 has a carrying surface 111 that is slightly bent downwards. The center of the carrying surface 111 is provided with a pressing sheet 112 corresponding to the position of the glass sheet 30 There is an opening 113 (see Fig. 4). Along the periphery of the pressed sheet 112, there are multiple cut grooves 114 that can bend the pressed sheet 112 elastically, and a card is provided on both sides of the base 11 (the long side in the picture). For the buckle 115, a buckle block 116 is provided on the other side of the base 11 (the short side in the figure). The collection part 12 has a conical cavity 121, the top end of the conical cavity 121 can be used for dripping the sample solution, the bottom end of the conical cavity 121 is connected with a conduit 122, and the conduit 122 is connected with the opening 113 of the pressing sheet 112 .
