Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of crop tissue culture technology, and in particular to a crop tissue culture sterilization device. Background Technology
[0002] Sterilization is a crucial step in crop tissue culture. Traditional sterilization methods typically use autoclaves, which, while effective for sterilizing culture media, have several drawbacks in practice. Traditional sterilization devices are integrated units, consisting of a container into which the culture media to be sterilized is placed. Steam is then introduced to sterilize the media. While this method can sterilize the media, it requires personnel to remove the sterilized media after initial sterilization and then place the new media in for sterilization, resulting in a long waiting period, making continuous operation impossible, and leading to low sterilization efficiency. Furthermore, the integrated structure of this device makes subsequent maintenance and repair relatively inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention proposes a sterilization device for crop tissue culture to solve the problem that existing devices cannot operate continuously.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a crop tissue culture sterilization device, including a support component and a sterilization component. The support component includes a horizontally placed base plate, and a rotating plate that rotates along an axis perpendicular to the horizontal plane is provided above the base plate. Both ends of the rotating plate are fixedly connected to support rings. A placement groove is provided on the support rings. A detachable storage component is placed inside the placement groove. The storage component forms a placement cavity for placing culture medium, and the top of the storage component is open to form a through hole that communicates with the placement cavity.
[0005] The sterilization component is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate and is located above the storage component. A gas guide channel for conveying water vapor along a preset path is formed on the sterilization component. An air outlet hood is fixedly connected to the outlet end of the gas guide channel. The air outlet hood matches the through hole. By rotating the rotating plate, any one of the air outlet hoods can be connected to the through hole.
[0006] Preferably, the storage component includes a storage bucket, the top of which is fixedly connected to a limiting ring. The outer diameter of the limiting ring is larger than the outer diameter of the placement groove. A detachable cover is screwed onto the limiting ring, and a through hole is formed on the cover.
[0007] Preferably, the outer periphery of the storage hopper symmetrically protrudes to form two limiting protrusions, and the limiting protrusions are located below the limiting ring. The inner wall of the placement groove symmetrically forms two limiting grooves, and the limiting grooves match the limiting protrusions.
[0008] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate, and the output end of the motor is connected to a rotating shaft, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate.
[0009] Preferably, an ultraviolet lamp is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage tank.
[0010] Preferably, the sterilization component includes a water storage tank and an air guide fan. A detachable cover is screwed onto the top of the water storage tank, and a water storage cavity is formed inside the water storage tank. A heating block is fixedly connected inside the water storage cavity. A delivery pipe is fixedly connected between the air inlet end of the air guide fan and the water storage tank. An air outlet hood is fixedly connected to the air guide fan and communicates with the air outlet end of the air guide fan. A handle is fixedly connected to the top of the cover.
[0011] Preferably, a support frame is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate, the water storage tank is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, and the air guide fan is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame.
[0012] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:
[0013] (1) By setting a rotatable rotating plate and a support ring, the support ring supports the storage unit. When the personnel need to sterilize the culture medium, the rotating plate drives the support ring and the storage unit to rotate, so that the through hole on one of the storage units is connected to the air hood. When the device sterilizes the culture medium, the personnel can simultaneously place the culture medium into another storage unit, so that feeding and sterilization can be carried out simultaneously. Therefore, there will be no long waiting time, allowing the device to work continuously and improving the sterilization efficiency of the device.
[0014] (2) By setting up a support ring, a placement trough and a storage component, when the storage component is placed on the support ring, the support ring supports the storage component, and the through hole on the cover cooperates with the vent hood, so that the part of the device that places the culture medium and the part that discharges water vapor are designed separately, making the device easier to maintain in the later stage, reducing the difficulty of the device maintenance in the later stage, and improving the efficiency of the device maintenance in the later stage.

[0025] 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.
[0026] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-8 The crop tissue culture sterilization device shown includes a support 1 and a sterilization component 2. The support 1 includes a horizontally placed base plate 11. A rotating plate 13 is provided above the base plate 11 and rotates along an axis perpendicular to the horizontal plane. Support rings 15 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating plate 13. A placement groove 16 is provided on the support ring 15. A detachable storage component 3 is placed inside the placement groove 16. The storage component 3 forms a placement cavity for placing culture medium. The top of the storage component 3 is open to form a through hole 36, which communicates with the placement cavity.
[0027] The sterilization component 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate 11 and is located above the storage component 3. A gas guide channel for conveying water vapor along a preset path is formed on the sterilization component 2. An air outlet hood 27 is fixedly connected to the outlet end of the gas guide channel. The air outlet hood 27 matches the through hole 36. By rotating the rotating plate 13, any one of the air outlet hoods 27 can be connected to the through hole 36.
[0028] With the above technical solution, when personnel need to disinfect the culture medium, the culture medium to be disinfected is placed inside the storage unit 3. After the culture medium is placed, the rotating plate 13 rotates, which in turn drives the support ring 15 to rotate. The support ring 15 drives the storage unit 3 to rotate, so that one of the storage units 3 is below the vent 27, allowing the through hole 36 to communicate with the vent 27. Then, water is added to the sterilization unit 2. When the sterilization unit 2 works, the water is heated to generate steam, and the steam is transported through the air guide channel to the vent 27, and then to the storage unit. Inside storage unit 3, the culture medium inside is sterilized by steam. While the culture medium inside storage unit 3 is being sterilized, personnel place other culture media that need to be sterilized inside storage unit 3 that has not been sterilized. After the culture media is placed and the culture media inside storage unit 3 is sterilized, the rotating plate 13 rotates, which in turn drives the support ring 15 to rotate. The support ring 15 drives storage unit 3 to rotate, moving storage unit 3 away from the exhaust hood 27, causing another storage unit 3 to rotate, and connecting the through hole 36 on the storage unit 3 to the exhaust hood 27, so that the sterilization of the culture medium can continue.
[0029] Specifically, in one embodiment, regarding the aforementioned storage component 3, as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figures 7-8 As shown, the storage component 3 includes a storage bucket 31. A limiting ring 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage bucket 31. The outer diameter of the limiting ring 32 is larger than the outer diameter of the placement groove 16. A detachable cover 35 is screwed onto the limiting ring 32. A through hole 36 is formed on the cover 35.
[0030] In this embodiment, when personnel need to place the culture medium, they rotate the cover 35 to separate the cover 35 from the storage tank 31, and then place the culture medium to be sterilized inside the storage tank 31. After the culture medium is placed, the cover 35 is screwed onto the storage tank 31 to fix the cover 35 onto the storage tank 31. Then, the storage tank 31 is placed in the placement groove 16 on the support ring 15, and the storage tank 31 is supported by the limiting ring 32.
[0031] After the storage bin 31 is placed inside the placement slot 16, in order to position the storage bin 31, such as... Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the outer periphery of the storage barrel 31 symmetrically protrudes to form two limiting protrusions 33, and the limiting protrusions 33 are located below the limiting ring 32. The inner wall of the placement groove 16 symmetrically forms two limiting grooves 17, and the limiting grooves 17 match the limiting protrusions 33.
[0032] In this embodiment, when the personnel place the storage bucket 31 inside the placement groove 16, the limiting protrusion 33 and the limiting groove 17 cooperate to make the storage bucket 31 more stable after placement.
[0033] In addition, regarding how the rotating plate 13 rotates in this utility model, as follows: Figures 1-3 As shown, a motor 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate 11, and a rotating shaft 14 is connected to the output end of the motor 12. The top of the rotating shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate 13.
[0034] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to drive the rotating plate 13 to rotate, the motor 12 works to drive the rotating shaft 14 to rotate, the rotating shaft 14 drives the rotating plate 13 to rotate, and the rotating plate 13 drives the support ring 15 to rotate.
[0035] To sterilize the culture medium with ultraviolet light, such as Figure 6 As shown, an ultraviolet lamp 34 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage tank 31.
[0036] In this embodiment, the culture medium is irradiated with ultraviolet lamp 34 to sterilize it with ultraviolet light.
[0037] Specifically, in one embodiment, regarding the sterilization component 2 described above, as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 4-6 As shown, the sterilization component 2 includes a water storage tank 22 and an air guide fan 28. A detachable cover plate 24 is screwed onto the top of the water storage tank 22, and a water storage cavity 23 is formed inside the water storage tank 22. A heating block 29 is fixedly connected inside the water storage cavity 23. A delivery pipe 26 is fixedly connected between the air inlet end of the air guide fan 28 and the water storage tank 22. An air outlet hood 27 is fixedly connected to the air guide fan 28, and the air outlet hood 27 communicates with the air outlet end of the air guide fan 28. A handle 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate 24.
[0038] In this embodiment, before sterilizing the culture medium by the device, the cover plate 24 is rotated by the handle 25 to separate the cover plate 24 from the water storage tank 22. Then, water is added to the water storage cavity 23 inside the water storage tank 22. The cover plate 24 is then screwed onto the water storage tank 22 to fix the cover plate 24. The heating block 29 is activated to make the water boil and generate water vapor. The air guide fan 28 is activated to guide the water vapor through the conveying pipe 26 and discharge the water vapor through the air outlet hood 27. The water vapor is then transported to the inside of the storage tank 31 through the through hole 36 to sterilize the culture medium.
[0039] Furthermore, in this utility model, in order to support the water storage tank 22 and the air guide fan 28, such as...
