It also solves the problem of frequently requiring repeated disinfection of the inoculation box during the inoculation process, which results in a small amount of residual bacteria and a low inoculation success rate due to the need to open the box to place the mushroom sticks and strains.

[0046] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0047] The present invention provides a fully automatic edible fungus detoxification device, comprising a housing (10). The interior of the housing is divided into three sections. A turntable for sample tubes of edible fungus strains to be detoxified is located at the lower left side of the housing. Detoxified edible fungus strain sample tubes are placed on the turntable. A horizontal beam is located on the left and right sides of the front of the housing. A movable robotic arm is mounted on the beam. The robotic arm inoculates the edible fungus samples to be detoxified onto the detoxification tray culture medium, detoxifies the culture medium on the detoxification tray, and then inoculates the detoxified test tubes from the detoxification tray. A detoxification tray support assembly is located in the middle of the housing. The detoxification tray support assembly consists of a turntable support on both sides and multiple horizontal flat supports connected to the turntable support assembly. The detoxification tray contains a zigzag-shaped detoxification culture medium. A culture medium test tube turntable is located at the lower right side of the housing to receive detoxified strains removed from the detoxification tray by the detoxification robotic arm. A mycelium detoxification status signal collection device, including a camera and a microcomputer controller, is located at the upper right side of the housing. When the detoxification is completed and the mycelium enters the last specific area of ​​the detoxification box, the camera collects the image status of the mycelium growth on the right side of the detoxification disk, transmits the image to the processor, and the microcomputer controller issues an instruction. The robotic arm inoculates the mycelium that has completed the detoxification procedure into the pre-sterilized culture medium tube on the culture medium tube turntable in the lower right corner, thereby completing the automatic detoxification operation of the device.

[0048] Working process:

[0049] 1) Place the test tubes containing the bacteria to be detoxified: Open the door and place the test tubes containing the bacteria to be detoxified on the turntable.

[0050] 2) Internal Environment Disinfection: Turn on the power and start the device. The ozone generator will start to disinfect the entire device for 30 minutes. Simultaneously, the heater above the inoculation needle will heat the robotic arm inoculation needle to 150-250°C for 3-10 minutes. After 3-10 minutes, the inoculation needle will fully cool.

[0051] 3) The robotic arm inoculates to the detoxification tray: The inoculation device of the robotic arm moves to the top of the test tube to be detoxified, the inoculation needle is inserted into the test tube, and the mycelium of the bacteria to be detoxified is taken out. The robotic arm then moves to the top of the detoxification tray bracket, and the inoculation part is aligned with the first growth grid of the detoxification tray (the detoxification tray with an elastic rubber film covering the detoxification culture medium), and the bacteria are inoculated onto the detoxification tray culture medium. The robotic arm then resets and heats to 150-250°C for disinfection for 3-10 minutes; the detoxification tray bracket rotates, and after the next detoxification tray stops at the inoculation position, the robotic arm inoculates the next bacteria to be detoxified and transfers it to the corresponding detoxification tray, completing the second bacteria inoculation operation. Similarly, each bacteria to be detoxified is inoculated into the detoxification tray by the inoculation needle until all inoculations are completed.

[0052] 4) Temperature control inside the box: The temperature inside the box is controlled at 10℃-40℃ to maintain the growth conditions of the fungus and mycelium.

[0053] 5) Detoxification completion: When the mycelium grows to the last growth grid, the camera captures the characteristic image of the mycelium and transmits it to the microcomputer controller, which activates the robotic arm to transfer to the last growth grid. The heater above the inoculation needle heats the robotic arm inoculation needle to 150-250℃ for 3-10 minutes for disinfection. After the inoculation needle has fully cooled after 10 minutes, the mycelium in the inoculation plate is removed and the detoxified bacteria are transferred to the culture medium test tube on the right. The test tube indicator light turns on, completing one round of detoxification. The robotic arm inoculation needle repeats the above steps and can operate on the next strain of bacteria that has been detoxified until all inoculations are completed.

[0054] 6) After multiple rounds of detoxification operations, the strains can be detoxified efficiently and cleanly.

[0055] In summary, the present invention is mainly aimed at a set of fully automatic equipment for detoxification of edible fungi strains, maintaining and restoring the original excellent biological characteristics and production traits of the strains. It is widely used in the detoxification improvement of all edible fungi strains. The detoxification work of edible fungi strains is transformed from being operated by professional technicians to being operated by fully automatic equipment, which not only greatly saves manpower, but also simplifies the operation process, improves work efficiency, and reduces the risk of infection by miscellaneous bacteria. The basic scheme adopted is to design an automated detoxification device, configure relevant functional components to achieve automated detoxification, efficient detoxification operation, including automatic internal sterilization, inoculation, temperature and light culture control, etc. The equipment does not need to transfer strains multiple times, which greatly improves the detoxification efficiency; for those who need to detoxify edible fungi and other fungi, it is easy and efficient to use.

[0056] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.

[0057] The above description of the disclosed embodiments is intended to enable one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown herein but is intended to conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
