Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a portable liquid nitrogen fumigation programmed freezer, belonging to the technical field of animal semen freezing technology. Background Art

[0002] Research has proven that cryopreserving semen is the most effective and inexpensive method for restoring the genetic resources of extinct animal breeds. Semen freezing technology plays a crucial role in the fields of animal genetic resource diversity protection, introduction of breeding stock, and variety cultivation. Cryopreservation of semen in straws is currently the best solution.

[0003] Currently, there are generally two methods for the freezing device of cryopreserved semen in straws. One is a commercial programmed freezer, which is complex and expensive, not convenient to carry and use under the relatively poor conditions of breeding farms. The other method is a simple liquid nitrogen fumigation method, usually using a thermos box filled with liquid nitrogen to freeze the straw semen in the nitrogen vapor phase. At different heights from the liquid nitrogen surface, the concentration of nitrogen vapor is different. The closer to the liquid nitrogen surface, the higher the gas concentration and the lower the temperature. By selecting the appropriate combination of height and residence time for the straw semen to park, the effect of freezing at any freezing rate can be obtained.

[0004] However, in the existing simple device technology, generally a lifting system for placing straw semen (including a series of structures such as linkage, transmission, and gears) is used to bring the straw closer to the liquid nitrogen surface. These transmission structures and materials are placed above the nitrogen vapor or even in contact with the nitrogen vapor. When receiving ultra-low temperature thermal fusion, they are prone to frosting, requiring high material and technical requirements, being difficult to implement, and easily damaged. When using a lightweight material such as a foam box for freezing, there are also problems such as easy slipping of the straws, and difficulties in laying and transferring the straws. In addition, the liquid nitrogen fumigation method lacks a simple and feasible fully automatic programmed freezing scheme for any freezing rate. Summary of the Invention

The width of the "┌┐"-shaped support plates 1075 is equal to the distance value between the opposite surfaces of the two protective vertical plates 1072. There are convex blocks 1076 on both sides of the "┌┐"-shaped support plates 1075. When the first capillary tube racks 107 are arranged in multiple layers, the convex blocks 1076 are movably lapped on the top of the protective vertical plates 1072 of the first capillary tube rack 107 on the next lower layer. At both ends of the rectangular ring plate 1071, there are handle plates 1077. The length of the handle plates 1077 is less than the distance value between the opposite inner walls of the "┌┐"-shaped support plates 1075. There are two symmetrically arranged weight reduction holes on the handle plates 1077.

[0055] The usage process of the present invention is as follows: First, place the equipment box 2 and the storage box 3 side by side in the groove opened on the base 4. Then, snap the second buckle 301 hinged on the side of the storage box 3 into the second slot 207 opened on the side of the equipment box 2 to fix the storage box 3 on the front side of the equipment box 2. Then, place the freezer 1 on the tops of the equipment box 2 and the storage box 3. Then, snap the first buckle 206 on the tops of the equipment box 2 and the storage box 3 with the first slots 113 opened at the bottoms of the front and rear sides of the freezer 1 to fix the freezer 1 on the tops of the equipment box 2 and the storage box 3. Connect the first plug 120 on the first wire 119 to the first interface on the side of the controller box 5, and connect the second plug 209 on the second wire 208 to the second interface 504 on the side of the controller box 5, so that the first servo motor 110, the second servo motor 204 and the displacement sensor are connected to the single-chip microcomputer controller 501 and receive control instructions. Move the support rod 201 upward so that the top end of the support rod 201 extends into the freezer 1 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tray 104. Open the top cover 101, take out the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105 in the freezer 1 and inject liquid nitrogen into it. Then, put the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105 back on the tray 104 in the freezer 1. (It is also possible not to take out the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105 and directly inject liquid nitrogen into the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105. When injecting liquid nitrogen, set a foam buoy in the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105, set a scale on the top of the foam buoy, and the foam buoy will float up after pouring in liquid nitrogen and stop injecting liquid nitrogen when it floats to the specified mark). Place the first capillary tube rack 107 neatly placed with capillary tubes 133 on the L-shaped bracket 106. Then, snap the "┌"-shaped clamping plate 117 at the top of the L-shaped bracket 106 into the rectangular limit slot 116 at the top of the inner wall of the freezer 1, so as to fix the L-shaped bracket 106 above the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105 in the freezer 1. Place the first capillary tube rack 107 with capillary tube semen on the L-shaped bracket 106. Then, start the second servo motor 204 to drive the first threaded rod 203 to rotate forward, thereby driving the first slide 205 to move upward. The first slide 205 drives the support rod to move upward, thereby driving the rectangular liquid nitrogen freezing barrel 105 to move upward to an appropriate position, and then the capillary tube semen can be frozen. This portable liquid nitrogen fumigation program freezer can set the freezing program through the temperature sensor, or can also set the freezing program according to the speed and time. Taking the freezing of chicken glycerol capillary tube semen as an example, usually first cool the capillary tube semen to 5 °C, then drop from 5 °C to -35 °C at a rate of -7 °C / min, then drop from -35 °C to -140 °C at a rate of -60 °C / min, and then immediately immerse the capillary tube in liquid nitrogen and stay for at least 15 minutes or more to complete the freezing of the capillary tube semen;The portable liquid nitrogen fumigation program freezer of the present invention sets up an independent freezer and an equipment box, and sets the controller box outside the freezer, isolating the freezer compartment from the electronic control system and the mechanical transmission device, which is convenient for reducing the technical difficulty of equipment development and extending the service life of the equipment. By setting the freezer, equipment box, storage box and base as independent components, it is convenient to disassemble, pack and transport when not in use, and to assemble and combine when needed, and it is convenient to transport to different animal resource farms for on-site freezing of straw semen. By controlling the opening degree of the top cover, a high temperature of about 4°C can be obtained, avoiding difficulties in obtaining high temperature caused entirely by the increase in the distance from the liquid nitrogen surface. By designing a drawer-type storage box to store various straw semen freezing utensils in categories, it avoids difficulties such as spending a long time cleaning and packing when mailing experimental utensils. By setting a detachable L-shaped bracket to support the first straw rack, it is convenient to put in and remove the straw rack, realizing convenient immersion of the straw into liquid nitrogen, and conveniently transferring the container containing the straw and liquid nitrogen, and realizing functions such as operating the straw in liquid nitrogen for quality detection and storing it in a bag after the detection. By installing a cryogenic temperature monitoring device that is easy to disassemble on the straw rack support, or connecting an electric device controlled according to the real-time temperature, it is convenient to monitor the freezing program and realize freezing at any freezing rate. At the same time, the straw placed in the freezer remains stationary. By setting a lifting device on the bottom plate of the liquid nitrogen container to control the lifting of the liquid nitrogen container, and then controlling the distance between the liquid nitrogen surface and the straw, the freezing of straw semen is realized, avoiding the risk of the straw semen slipping caused by lifting the straw semen. By setting the first and second straw racks, it is convenient to select a matching freezing device and freezing rack according to the freezing program required by a specific freezing example, simplifying the freezing system. By setting an L-shaped bracket, it is convenient to support the straw rack above the liquid nitrogen container.;

[0058] Embodiment 3:

[0059] As Figure 16-20As shown in the figure, a portable liquid nitrogen fumigation program freezer includes a device box 2 and a storage box 3 connected to the bottom of a freezing box 1. The device box 2 and the storage box 3 are connected in parallel to the bottom of the freezing box 1, and the bottoms of the device box 2 and the storage box 3 are connected in parallel to the grooves opened on a base 4. The top of the side wall of the freezing box 1 is connected with an L-shaped bracket 106, and a second thin tube rack 125 is supported on the horizontal rack at the lower end of the L-shaped bracket 106. In this embodiment, the second thin tube rack 125 is made of foam material. The second thin tube rack 125 includes a rectangular ring block 126 and an annular boss 127 arranged on the top of the rectangular ring block 126. At the top of the inner walls on both sides of the annular boss 127, thin tube placement grooves 128 adapted to thin tubes 133 are opened. In this embodiment, the thin tube placement grooves 128 are narrow grooves for placing a single thin tube. The lower surface of the rectangular ring block 126 is provided with a storage groove 129 adapted to the annular boss 127. When multiple layers of the second thin tube racks 125 are arranged, the annular boss 127 of the lower-layer second thin tube rack 125 is snapped into the storage groove 129 at the bottom of the upper-layer second thin tube rack 125. A limit card slot 130 is opened on the side of the second thin tube rack 125 close to the L-shaped bracket 106, and the vertical plate of the L-shaped bracket 106 is slidably snapped into the limit card slot 130 to enhance the stability of the second thin tube rack 125 on the L-shaped bracket 106. The second thin tube rack 125 further includes a thin tube rubbing plate 130. The upper surface of the thin tube rubbing plate 130 is evenly provided with rubbing plate arc grooves 132 adapted to the thin tubes 133. The height of the rubbing plate arc grooves 132 is higher than that of the second thin tube rack 125, and the distance between the rubbing plate arc grooves 132 is equal to the distance between the thin tube placement grooves 128. When in use, first place the thin tube rubbing plate 130 in the second thin tube rack 125, then place a plurality of thin tubes 133 containing animal semen at one end of the thin tube rubbing plate 130, with the thin tubes 133 parallel to the rubbing plate arc grooves 132, and then rub the thin tubes 133 towards the other end of the thin tube rubbing plate 130 to unfold the thin tubes 133 and evenly snap them into the rubbing plate arc grooves 132, so that the thin tubes 133 containing animal semen are neatly arranged. Then lift the second thin tube rack 125 upwards, and both ends of the neatly arranged thin tubes 133 respectively fall into the thin tube placement grooves 128 on the inner walls on both sides of the second thin tube rack 125, and the neatly arranged thin tubes 133 can be batch-transferred to the second thin tube rack 125 and then placed in the freezing box 1 for freezing. The second thin tube rack 125 can either replace the first thin tube rack 107 or be used independently. Since the second thin tube rack 125 is made of foam, it has a small density and a light weight and directly floats on the liquid nitrogen. By stacking the second thin tube racks 125, the distance (height) of the thin tubes 133 relative to the liquid nitrogen liquid surface can be selected to implement thin tube freezing. The second thin tube rack 125 can also be detached from this system and used in a foam box filled with liquid nitrogen. The other structures of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1 or 2.
