Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of biosafety cabinets, and in particular to an airflow velocity measuring tool for a biosafety cabinet. Background Art

[0002] Biosafety cabinets are also called negative pressure filtration exhaust cabinets, which are mainly used to prevent operators and the environment from being exposed to bioaerosols generated during the experiment. This equipment needs to detect its airflow velocity during use. At present, when the airflow into the biosafety cabinet is detected, the test personnel use a steel tape measure to locate the horizontal coordinate at the front window operation port of the biosafety cabinet, and use the scale of the handheld anemometer probe to locate the vertical coordinate. The approximate position of each detection point is located in the air, and then the handheld anemometer is used for detection. After each point is detected, the next point needs to be manually repeated to repeat the previous positioning action and then detect again.

[0003] The inspection is time-consuming because the inspectors need to hold the anemometer at the front window operating port for a long time. The inspectors have to use a steel tape measure to locate the horizontal coordinate each time, and the scale on the handheld anemometer probe locates the vertical coordinate, which takes a very long time, has a very low positioning accuracy, and is completely non-reproducible.

[0030] An angle adjustment assembly 6 is provided on the fixing device 5 and is used to drive the anemometer probe 7 to rotate, mainly to keep the front end opening of the anemometer probe 7 in a vertical state;

[0031] The positioning component 8 is set on the movable platform 3 through the connecting plate 80. Initially, it is used to align the anemometer probe 7 with the measuring hole 21, and the movable end of the positioning component 8 is inserted into the measuring hole 21. Later, when the measuring hole 21 is replaced, the positioning component 8 can be inserted into the next measuring hole 21.

[0032] In one embodiment, the fixing device 5 includes a movable sleeve 51 sleeved on the vertical pole 4, a fixing ring 52 is provided on one side of the movable sleeve 51, the angle adjustment assembly 6 is provided on the fixing ring 52, a rotating disk 53 is provided on one end of the fixing ring 52, a driven gear 54 is provided on the other end of the fixing ring 52, vertical grooves are provided on the rotating disk 53 and the driven gear 54, a clamping assembly 55 for clamping the anemometer probe 7 is provided in the vertical groove, and a locking rod 56 for pressing against the vertical pole 4 is also provided on the movable sleeve 51;

[0033] First, insert the anemometer probe 7 into the turntable 53 and the driven gear 54, and fix it by the clamping assembly 55. Then, the anemometer probe 7 can be rotated by the angle adjustment assembly 6 so that the front end opening of the anemometer probe 7 is vertically downward, and the positioning assembly 8 is used to align the opening with the measuring hole 21.

[0034] In one embodiment, the clamping assembly 55 includes two movable blocks 551 sliding in the vertical slots, a clamping plate 552 is provided on the movable blocks 551, two vertical plates 554 are provided on one side of the vertical slots, a bidirectional threaded rod 555 is rotatably provided between the two vertical plates 554, and a limiting slider 553 sleeved on the bidirectional threaded rod 555 is provided on one side of the movable block 551;

[0035] After the anemometer probe 7 is inserted into the rotating disk 53 and the driven gear 54 , the two-way threaded rod 555 can be rotated to move the clamping plates 552 on both sides inward at the same time, thereby fixing the anemometer probe 7 .

[0036] In one embodiment, a roller 556 is disposed at one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 555 , and the two rollers 556 are connected to each other through a transmission belt 557 , and a knob 558 is disposed on the roller 556 ;

[0037] The two bidirectional threaded rods 555 can be rotated synchronously via a conveyor belt 557 , so that the two clamping assemblies 55 can fix and clamp the anemometer probe 7 at the same time.

[0038] In one embodiment, the angle adjustment assembly 6 includes a fixing plate 61 fixed on the fixing ring 52, a driving gear 62 is rotatably provided on the fixing plate 61, and the driving gear 62 is meshed with the driven gear 54;

[0039] After the anemometer probe 7 is fixed and clamped, the driving gear 62 can be rotated, and the driving gear 62 can drive the driven gear 54 to rotate, so as to fine-tune the anemometer probe 7.

[0040] In one embodiment, the positioning assembly 8 includes a fixed sleeve 81 fixed on the connecting plate 80, a telescopic rod 82 is slidably arranged in the fixed sleeve 81, a positioning rod 83 is arranged at the bottom end of the telescopic rod 82, a guide rod 84 is arranged at the top end of the telescopic rod 82, a baffle 85 is arranged on the telescopic rod 82, and a return spring 86 is arranged between the baffle 85 and the inner top end of the fixed sleeve 81 and sleeved on the telescopic rod 82;

[0041] Initially, the positioning rod 83 is inserted into the first measuring hole 21. At this time, the guide rod 84 on the top is aligned with the measuring hole 21. Since the anemometer probe 7 has a certain elasticity, the anemometer probe 7 is moved down and the probe is pulled so that the opening of the probe is sleeved on the guide rod 84. This completes the alignment of the anemometer probe 7 with the measuring hole 21. Then, the movable sleeve 51 is moved up to a suitable height and fixed by the locking rod 56.

[0042] The connecting plate 80 is also provided with a lifting assembly 87 for driving the telescopic rod 82 to move upward. After measuring a measuring hole 21, the telescopic rod 82 can be driven to move upward by the lifting assembly 87, so that the positioning rod 83 is separated from the measuring hole 21, and then the movable platform 3 is moved to the next measuring hole 21. After the positioning rod 83 is inserted into the next measuring hole 21, the detection begins.

[0043] In one embodiment, the lifting assembly 87 includes a mounting plate 871 fixed on the connecting plate 80, a cam 872 is rotatably provided on the mounting plate 871, a driving motor 873 is provided on one side of the cam 872, a sliding groove is provided on the side wall of the fixed sleeve 81, a convex plate 851 fixed on the baffle 85 is slidably provided in the sliding groove, and the cam 872 is located at the bottom of the convex plate 851;

[0044] After measuring this measuring hole 21, the cam 872 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 873, and the protruding end of the cam 872 moves to the upper part, which pushes the convex plate 851 to move upward, thereby driving the telescopic rod 82 to move upward, allowing the positioning rod 83 to disengage from the measuring hole 21, and then the movable platform 3 moves to the next measuring hole 21. While it moves, the cam 872 continues to rotate so that the protruding end is located at the lower part, so that after moving to the next measuring hole 21, the positioning rod 83 will be directly inserted into the measuring hole 21.

[0045] In one embodiment, a lead screw 22 is rotatably disposed in the base plate 2 , and a movable slider 30 is disposed at the bottom of the movable platform 3 , and the movable slider 30 is sleeved on the lead screw 22 .

[0046] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-restrictive in all respects, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
