[0002] In biological experiments, an operator often uses a biomass culture container to culture biomass, and the culture container includes a container bottle and a container cover. After the culture container completes the culture of the biomass in a culture box, it still needs to be frequently opened, closed, liquid added, liquid transferred, shaken, centrifuged, and the like outside the culture box. Since some culture containers are large in size, such as culture bottles and culture dishes, only one can be operated at a time, and it is difficult to operate in batches.

[0003] A more common scheme in the current market is to mount an intelligent liquid transfer module on a gantry moving frame. The intelligent liquid transfer module can accurately add or discard liquid in a centrifuge tube. However, the container consumables used by such equipment are mainly centrifuge tubes or multi-well plates, and culture dishes and culture bottles are not suitable for such equipment. The culture dishes and culture bottles need to be opened before use and shaken during use, and these requirements are not functions possessed by the existing equipment. SUMMARY

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a batch processing equipment for biomass culture containers, which realizes the batch and automation of opening and closing the container cover of the culture container, shaking the culture container, adding liquid, discarding liquid, and centrifugal processing in biological experiments, and effectively improves the processing efficiency.

[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the present application to solve the above technical problem is that a batch processing equipment for biomass culture containers is provided, which comprises a fixing frame.

[0006] A plurality of clamping mechanisms are arranged on the fixing frame through a first transverse moving assembly. The clamping mechanisms can slide transversely along the first transverse moving assembly. The clamping mechanisms are used to place and clamp a plurality of culture containers.

[0007] A plurality of cover taking mechanisms are arranged above the activity space of the clamping mechanisms through a plurality of first vertical moving assemblies. The cover taking mechanisms can slide vertically along the first vertical moving assemblies. The cover taking mechanisms are used to grab the culture container covers from the culture containers of the clamping mechanisms and cover the removed culture container covers on the corresponding culture container bottles.

[0008] A plurality of liquid adding mechanisms are arranged above the activity space of the clamping mechanisms through a plurality of second vertical moving assemblies. The liquid adding mechanisms can slide vertically along the second vertical moving assemblies. The liquid adding mechanisms are used to add liquid to the biomass culture containers.

[0009] a plurality of pipetting mechanisms arranged on the fixed frame, the pipetting mechanisms being used for pipetting the biomass culture container;

[0010] a scraping mechanism arranged above the movable space of the clamping mechanism through a third vertical moving assembly, the scraping mechanism being vertically slidable along the third vertical moving assembly, a plurality of scrapers being arranged on the scraping mechanism, the scrapers being used for scraping the working surface of the culture container;

[0011] a centrifuging mechanism arranged on the fixed frame, the centrifuging mechanism being used for centrifuging the biomass in the biomass culture container.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present application are that: when in use, the culture container taken out from the incubator is placed on the clamping mechanism of the fixing frame, the culture container is clamped by the clamping mechanism, then the clamping mechanism and the cover taking mechanism are relatively moved by the first horizontal moving assembly and the first vertical moving assembly, so that the clamping mechanism is located directly below the cover taking mechanism, the cover taking mechanism is used to complete the cover opening process of the culture container on the clamping mechanism, the container cover on the culture container is removed, then the cover taking mechanism is moved away from the clamping mechanism by the first vertical moving assembly. Then the clamping mechanism after the cover opening is located directly below the liquid adding mechanism by the first horizontal moving assembly and the second vertical moving assembly, the liquid adding mechanism is used to complete the liquid adding process of the biomass in the culture bottle, such as PBS solution, culture solution, digestive enzyme solution, etc., then the liquid adding mechanism is moved away from the clamping mechanism by the second vertical moving assembly. Then the liquid adding, liquid adding, liquid discarding and other operations are completed on the container bottle by the pipetting mechanism. If scraping operation is needed, the scraping mechanism is used to scrape the working surface of the container bottle, so that the biomass in the container bottle is collected to one side of the bottom of the container bottle, which is convenient for collection. Finally, if the biomass in the container bottle needs to be centrifuged, the biomass in the container bottle is moved to the centrifugal mechanism by the pipetting mechanism, and the centrifugal process of the biomass is completed by the centrifugal mechanism. If the liquid added to the biomass in the container bottle needs to be centrifuged first during use, the liquid can also be centrifuged first by the centrifugal mechanism, and then added to the biomass in the container bottle by the pipetting mechanism. Therefore, the batch processing equipment for biomass culture of the present application can batchly complete the cover opening, cover closing, liquid adding, liquid moving, scraping, and centrifugation of the biomass culture container, which reduces the labor cost, avoids the error operation, improves the operation consistency of different containers of the same model, improves the consistency of experimental results of different batches, and avoids the pollution caused by the contact between the biomass and the human body due to the opening of the container cover by the operator.
