DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] See also Figure 1 A microcosm test device for simulating a genetically engineered cyanobacteria restoration system comprises: a test box 1 and a box cover 2, a simulation lamp 7 (LED lamp) is provided on the bottom wall of the box cover 2, a controller 5 is provided on the test box 1 (the controller 5 can be a central control device, such as a computer, and a temperature controller, a humidity controller and other devices are installed inside the test box 1. The device is controlled by a computer to simulate the temperature and humidity of the required environment inside the test box 1. Corresponding control devices can also be installed inside the test box 1 according to the requirements of the simulated environment. These processes and the equipment used belong to the prior art and are not described in detail here), an inner seal 3 and an outer seal 4 (both are made of rubber) are provided at the bottom of the box cover 2, the inner seal 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the test box 1, and the outer seal 4 is in contact with the outer wall of the test box 1, so as to increase the sealing between the box cover 2 and the test box 1.

[0026] It should be noted that the test box body 1 and the box cover 2 can be connected and fixed by bolts.

[0027] See also Figure 1 The test box 1 includes an outer box 101, an inner box 102 and a support block 103 arranged between the outer box 101 and the inner box 102. The space between the outer box 101 and the inner box 102 is filled with a filling liquid (such as water); the box cover 2 includes a cover plate 21 and an elastic wrapping layer 22 (made of rubber material). The elastic wrapping layer 22 wraps the cover plate 21 except the bottom. The space between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22 is filled with gas (the gas may be air. After the space between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22 is filled with gas, the elastic wrapping layer 22 will expand, and the cover plate 21 is provided with an inflation port for inflating air between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22); a groove 10 is provided at the bottom of the cover plate 21, and a pressing block 11 is slidably provided in the inner cavity of the groove 10. The pressing block 11 is in contact with the top wall of the test box 1, and the shape of the groove 10 is the same as the shape of the top wall of the test box 1.

[0028] It should be noted that during the test, if the box cover 2 is damaged (such as the cover plate 21 or the elastic wrapping layer 22 is broken), the gas between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22 will leak, causing the elastic wrapping layer 22 to deform; if the test box 1 is damaged (such as the outer box 101 and the inner box 102 are broken), the liquid between the outer box 101 and the inner box 102 will leak out; if there is a gap between the test box 1 and the box cover 2, gas will pass through the gap between the two and move the pressure block 11 upward. The above three methods are used to detect the sealing of the test box 1, the box cover 2, and the sealing between the test box 1 and the box cover 2 to ensure that leakage in the test device can be discovered in time, which is used to eliminate external interference during the test and ensure the accuracy of the cyanobacteria assessment.

[0029] In this implementation, as a further optimization solution, please refer to Figure 2 Two sealing grooves 211 are provided at the bottom of the cover plate 21. The shapes of the two sealing grooves 211 are the same as those of the slots 10 (the cross sections of the two sealing grooves 211 extend along the top wall of the test box 1. If the test box is rectangular, the two sealing grooves 211 are both in the shape of a square). The two sealing grooves 211 are located directly above the test box 1, and the two sealing grooves 211 are respectively located on the inner and outer sides of the slots 10. A moving block 212 is slidably provided in the inner cavity of the sealing groove 211. A supporting spring 213 is installed between the sealing groove 211 and the moving block 212. The moving block 212 divides the sealing groove 211 into two upper and lower cavities isolated from each other. The two upper cavities are connected to the outside through through holes 215, and the two lower cavities are connected with exhaust holes 214. A connecting piece is provided between the moving block 212 and the pressing block 11 (The connecting piece refers to the connecting rod); after the box cover 2 is connected to the test box body 1, it is connected to the exhaust hole 214 through an exhaust device (air pump) to extract the gas in the lower cavity of the sealing grooves 211 on both sides, so that a negative pressure environment is formed inside, and the external air pressure applies a downward force to the top of the moving block 212 through the through hole 215, so that the moving block 212 moves downward with the pressure block 11 until the pressure block 11 fits with the top wall of the test box body 1; when a gap is generated between the box cover 2 and the test box body 1, the negative pressure environment of the cavity under the sealing groove 211 is destroyed, so that the air pressure of the upper and lower cavities is balanced, so that the moving block 212 is subjected to reduced air pressure, and under the action of the supporting spring 213, the moving block 212 moves upward with the pressure block 11, and whether there is a leak between the box cover 2 and the test box body 1 is determined by observing whether the pressure block 11 moves.

[0030] It should be noted that in order to make the movement of the pressing block 11 more obvious, a touch switch is installed in the inner cavity of the slot 10. The touch switch is located above the pressing block 11. The touch switch is connected in series with the power supply and the LED lamp. When the moving block 212 moves the pressing block 11 upward, the pressing block 11 presses the touch switch to make the LED lamp light up.

[0031] In this embodiment, as a further optimized solution, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 A telescopic connector 23 is provided between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22; the telescopic connector 23 includes a plurality of sets 232 that are slidably connected in sequence, an elastic member (spring) is provided between two adjacent sets 232, a slide groove 231 is provided on the inner side wall of the set 232, a slider 233 is provided on the set 232, the slider 233 on one set 232 is slidably inserted into the slide groove 231 of another set 232, and a conductive sheet 234 is provided on the slider 233 and in the slide groove 231, The cover plate 21 is provided with an indicator light 6 (LED light), and the indicator light 6 and the conductive sheet 234 are connected in series with an external power source; when air is inflated between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22 to expand the elastic wrapping layer 22, the telescopic connector 23 will extend, and the slider 233 will slide in the slide groove 231 at this time. When the conductive sheet 234 on the slider 233 contacts the conductive sheet 234 in the slide groove 231, the indicator light 6 is powered on and lights up, and the inflation is stopped at this time; two bumps 235 are provided in the slide groove 231, The two protrusions 235 are respectively located at the front and rear sides of the moving direction of the slider 233, and are used to limit the movement of the slider 233 so that the slider 233 will not move easily and cause the two conductive sheets 234 to be misaligned; when the cover plate 21 or the elastic wrapping layer 22 is broken, causing the gas between the two to leak, the air pressure between the two is reduced, and under the action of the elastic member, the telescopic connector 23 contracts to separate the two conductive sheets 234 in contact, and at this time the indicator light 6 is powered off and stops emitting light. The staff can judge the sealing of the box cover 2 itself by judging whether the indicator light 6 is emitting light, making the detection process more convenient; when the cover plate 21 is broken and the air pressure inside the test box 1 is greater than the air pressure between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22, the gas inside the test box 1 will enter between the cover plate 21 and the elastic wrapping layer 22, increasing the expansion amplitude of the elastic wrapping layer 22. At this time, the telescopic connector 23 is extended more, which will also cause the two conductive sheets 234 to be out of contact, causing the indicator light 6 to stop emitting light, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the detection.

[0032] In this embodiment, as a further optimized solution, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , a plurality of sliders 233 and a plurality of slide grooves 231 are provided with conductive sheets 234, the conductive sheets 234 on the sliders 233 and the conductive sheets 234 in the slide grooves 231 form a conductive assembly, and the indicator light 6 is controlled by a plurality of groups of conductive assemblies to be energized; when the conductive sheets 234 on all sliders 233 are in contact with the conductive sheets 234 in the slide grooves 231, the indicator light 6 will light up, so that the telescopic connecting member 23 is not shortened or extended much, but when one group of conductive sheets 234 is not in contact, the indicator light 6 will stop lighting up, so that the detection accuracy is higher.

[0033] In this embodiment, as a further optimized solution, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An indicator plate 12 (the indicator plate 12 refers to a plate member) is slidably provided between the outer box body 101 and the inner box body 102. The indicator plate 12 is located above the filling liquid between the outer box body 101 and the inner box body 102. The indicator plate 12 can block the gap between the outer box body 101 and the inner box body 102 to prevent the filling liquid from leaking from the top of the test box body 1. When the outer box body 101 and the inner box body 102 are broken and the filling liquid leaks, the indicator plate 12 will move downward under the action of gravity. By observing whether the indicator plate 12 moves, it can be judged whether the test box body 1 itself is leaking, which makes it more convenient for the staff to judge whether the test box body 1 is leaking.

[0034] In this embodiment, as a further optimized solution, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a winding assembly 8 (motor) is provided on the outer box body 101, a pull rope 9 is provided on the output shaft of the motor, and the end of the pull rope 9 away from the motor is connected to the indicator plate 12; a mounting groove 13 is provided on the top wall of the indicator plate 12, and a sensor 14 (pressure sensor) is provided in the mounting groove 13, the sensor 14 is in contact with the bottom wall of the cover plate 21, and the sensor 14 is connected to the central control device installed on the test box body 1 (the sensor 14 continuously transmits information to the central control device); when the liquid between the outer box body 101 and the inner box body 102 begins to leak, causing the indicator plate 12 to move downward by a small amplitude, a gap is generated between the indicator plate 12 and the pressure block 11 at this time, so that the sensor 14 is not in contact with the pressure block 11, and the central control device detects that the sensor 14 is not in contact with the pressure block 11 by receiving the information, and then controls the motor to be powered on and started, and winds the pull rope 9 around the output shaft of the motor to pull the indicator plate 12 downward, increase the movement amplitude of the indicator plate 12, and make the leakage of the test box body 1 detected as soon as possible.

[0035] In this embodiment, as a further optimized solution, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3, a mounting hole is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 13, a limiting rod 16 is slidably provided in the inner cavity of the mounting hole, a spring member 17 is installed between the mounting hole and the limiting rod 16, a mounting seat is slidably provided in the inner cavity of the mounting groove 13, a push spring is installed between the mounting seat and the mounting groove 13, the sensor 14 is installed above the mounting seat, a limiting groove 15 is provided on one side wall of the mounting seat facing the limiting rod 16, a guide groove 18 is provided on the inner side wall of the outer box body 101, and one end of the limiting rod 16 away from the mounting seat is inserted into the guide groove 18; when the test box body 1 itself does not leak, and there is a gap between the test box body 1 and the box cover 2, this When the pressure block 11 moves upward, the pressure on the sensor 14 disappears. Under the action of the push spring, the mounting seat moves up with the sensor 14 and continues to contact the bottom of the pressure block 11, so that the movement of the pressure block 11 will not cause the winding assembly 8 to be powered on; when the indicator plate 12 moves downward, the limit rod 16 will move downward until the limit rod 16 moves out of the inner cavity of the guide groove 18 (the distance between the left and right sides of the guide groove 18 gradually decreases from top to bottom). At this time, the limit rod 16 will be inserted into the limit groove to fix the mounting seat and the sensor 14, ensuring that when the indicator plate 12 moves downward actively, the winding assembly 8 will be powered on.

[0036] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
