This does not use the result but rather reevaluates the 
"my_result" code block.

You could try adapting the examples for using :post at the end of: 
https://orgmode.org/manual/Results-of-Evaluation.html

But in my (limited) experience it is difficult to get the output

Another suggestion is to use a templating system for generating 
the src block and include the #+name: part in the template. I use 
yasnippet for this.
