Although the blood plate incubation mechanism can not only provide blood plate incubation for the fully automatic microbial post-processing system, it can also be used alone. Providing blood plate rotation and detecting the presence of blood plates can achieve accurate positioning accuracy. At the same time, the plates in the incubator can be photographed at regular intervals, and the blood plate growth process can be observed without taking out the plates, thereby reducing the risk of bacterial transmission; but during the culture process, the nutrients in the culture medium are not fully mixed with the microorganisms, resulting in low utilization of the nutrients. In addition, the colonies tend to excessively adhere to the surface of the blood plate, affecting the observation and analysis of the colonies, thereby reducing the accuracy and reliability of the experiment;
[0004] In addition, existing culture devices usually lack an effective light regulation mechanism, resulting in uneven light exposure in different directions of the blood plate. This uneven light exposure can cause microorganisms to grow too fast or too slow in a local area, resulting in uneven growth of microorganisms on the entire blood plate, affecting the accuracy and consistency of experimental results.

[0016] Preferably, the method steps are as follows:
[0017] S01. Open the door of the incubation device, place the blood plates containing the target microorganisms in the grooves of the plates in turn, and ensure that the blood plates are stably fixed; then close the door, start the heating chamber, and maintain a constant temperature inside the device through a precise temperature control system to provide suitable environmental conditions for the growth of microorganisms;
[0018] S02. The driving mechanism is started, and the second motor drives the transmission wheel to rotate. The transmission wheel pulls the vertical plate to move in the horizontal direction through the transmission belt to achieve the lateral horizontal displacement of the support plate; at the same time, the third motor drives the third threaded rod to rotate, and the lifting block moves up and down in the vertical direction through the thread transmission to complete the height adjustment of the support plate; in addition, the first motor drives the first threaded rod to rotate, and the thread transmission causes the base to move forward and backward along the moving direction of the support plate, and finally the support plate is accurately positioned above the blood plate;
[0019] S03. The telescopic end of the cylinder extends downward, and the bottom of the cylinder pushes the support plate downward to fit closely to the raised edge of the top of the blood plate; at this time, the spring and the telescopic rod at the bottom of the positioning block are compressed under the pressure; when the telescopic end of the cylinder contracts upward rapidly, the spring rebounds quickly, pushing the top cover of the blood plate and the blood plate as a whole to quickly reset upward, and with the help of the reciprocating rapid telescopic movement of the telescopic end of the cylinder, the blood plate is efficiently vibrated; this vibration process helps to break the static interface between the culture medium and the microorganisms, promote the full mixing of nutrients in the culture medium and microorganisms, improve the absorption efficiency of nutrients, and accelerate the metabolic activities and growth and reproduction of microorganisms; at the same time, slight vibration can also effectively prevent excessive adhesion and aggregation of bacteria on the surface of the blood plate, making the distribution of bacteria more uniform, facilitating subsequent observation and analysis, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of experimental results;
[0020] S04. After the driving mechanism drives the support plate to reset, the fifth motor starts and drives the second worm to rotate; the second worm and the second worm gear are meshed and driven to rotate the second worm gear; the second worm gear is connected to the positioning block through the telescopic rod, driving the positioning block to rotate synchronously; the rotation of the positioning block then drives the blood plate carried on the top of it to rotate in all directions; the rotation of the blood plate ensures that the microorganisms receive light evenly in different directions, avoiding local growth that is too fast or too slow due to differences in light intensity or angle, so that the growth of microorganisms on the entire blood plate is more balanced; for the blood plate in the liquid culture medium, the rotation can also promote the full mixing of the culture medium and the microorganisms, so that the nutrients are more evenly distributed on the blood plate, which helps the microorganisms obtain the required nutrients more efficiently, further improves the utilization rate of nutrients, and accelerates the growth rate of microorganisms;
[0021] S05. When the positioning block stops rotating, the grooves on its surface are precisely aligned with the grooves on the surface of the placement plate; the fourth motor starts to drive the first worm to rotate; the first worm is meshed with the four first worm gears to make the four first worm gears rotate synchronously; the first worm gear is connected to the placement plate to drive the placement plate to adjust the angle and achieve tilting; the tilting of the placement plate is conducive to the experimenter to directly observe the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the blood plate through the door, avoiding frequent opening of the door for observation, thereby effectively preventing pollutants in the external air from entering the main body of the device, ensuring the sterile environment of the blood plate, and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the experiment;
[0022] S06. When the placement plate is reset to a horizontal angle, the drive mechanism starts again to drive the support plate to move; one end of the support plate is accurately inserted into the groove on the surface of the placement plate and tightly combined with the groove on the surface of the positioning block; then, the drive mechanism continues to work, driving the support plate to lift up, holding the bottom of the blood plate for movement; by adjusting the position of the blood plate inside the main body of the device, the blood plate is prevented from being in the same position for a long time, reducing the uneven growth of microorganisms caused by slight differences in local environmental conditions (such as temperature and humidity); constantly adjusting the position of the blood plate so that the microorganisms grow alternately under the environmental conditions of different positions, which helps to improve the uniformity of microbial growth on the entire blood plate and ensure the stability and consistency of the experimental results.
[0023] The present invention provides a fully automatic microbial post-processing blood plate incubation device and method. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] (1) The fully automatic microbial post-processing blood plate incubation device and method, through the coordinated cooperation of multiple mechanisms, achieves an efficient vibration effect on the blood plate. This vibration can promote the mixing of nutrients in the culture medium and microorganisms, improve the utilization rate of nutrients, and accelerate the growth of microorganisms. At the same time, slight vibration can also prevent excessive adhesion of colonies on the surface of the blood plate, making the colonies easier to observe and analyze, thereby improving the accuracy of the experiment. At the same time, it can also reduce the phenomenon of excessive local nutrient concentration on the surface of the blood plate, thereby avoiding excessive growth of microorganisms in local areas, resulting in uneven growth. This uniform growth environment helps to obtain more consistent experimental results.
[0025] (2) The fully automatic microbial post-processing blood plate incubation device and method drives the second worm and the second worm gear to rotate through the fifth motor, thereby enabling the blood plate to rotate. The rotation of the blood plate allows the microorganisms to receive light evenly in different directions, avoiding local growth that is too fast or too slow due to uneven light, and making the growth of microorganisms on the entire blood plate more uniform. In addition, in the liquid culture medium, the rotation of the blood plate can also promote the mixing of the culture medium and the microorganisms, making the nutrients more evenly distributed, helping the microorganisms to obtain the required nutrients more quickly, improving the utilization rate of nutrients, and thus accelerating the growth rate of the microorganisms.
[0026] (3) The fully automatic microbial post-processing blood plate incubation device and method starts the fourth motor to drive the first worm to rotate; the first worm is meshed with the four first worm wheels to make the four first worm wheels rotate synchronously; the first worm wheel is connected to the placement plate to drive the placement plate to adjust the angle and achieve tilting; the tilting of the placement plate is conducive to the experimenter to directly observe the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the blood plate through the chamber door, avoiding frequent opening of the chamber door for observation, thereby effectively preventing pollutants in the external air from entering the interior of the device body, ensuring the sterile environment of the blood plate, and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the experiment.
[0027] Thereby, the problems of insufficient culture medium mixing and uneven illumination in the prior art are solved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0051] S05. When the positioning block 805 stops rotating, the groove on the surface of the positioning block 805 will be aligned with the groove on the surface of the placement plate 804, and then the first worm 802 will be driven to rotate by the fourth motor 803. The first worm 802 can drive the four first worm wheels 801 to rotate at the same time, so that the four first worm wheels 801 can drive the four placement plates 804 to rotate, so that the placement plates 804 can be adjusted in angle, so as to be tilted, which is conducive to observing the internal blood plate surface through the chamber door 2, thereby avoiding opening the chamber door 2 for observation, and preventing external air from entering the device body 1 to contaminate the blood plate;
[0052] S06. When the placement plate 804 is reset to a horizontal angle, the support plate 716 is driven to move by the driving mechanism 7, so that one end of the support plate 716 can be inserted into the groove on the surface of the positioning block 805 through the groove on the surface of the placement plate 804, and then the support plate 716 is lifted up by the driving mechanism 7, so that the support plate 716 can support the bottom of the blood plate for movement, thereby adjusting the position of the blood plate inside the device body 1, avoiding the blood plate from being in the same position for a long time, resulting in uneven growth of microorganisms due to slight differences in local environmental conditions. By continuously adjusting the position of the blood plate, the microorganisms can be alternately grown under the environmental conditions of different positions, reducing the phenomenon of local uneven growth, and improving the uniformity of microbial growth on the entire blood plate.

The driving mechanism (7) is started, and the second motor (706) is operated to drive the transmission wheel (707) to rotate. The transmission wheel (707) pulls the vertical plate (710) to move in the horizontal direction through the transmission belt (708), thereby realizing the lateral horizontal displacement of the support plate (716); at the same time, the third motor (711) drives the third threaded rod (713) to rotate, and the lifting block (714) is moved up and down in the vertical direction through the threaded transmission, thereby completing the height adjustment of the support plate (716); in addition, the first motor (703) drives the first threaded rod (704) to rotate, and the threaded transmission causes the base (701) to move forward and backward along the moving direction of the support plate (716), and finally the support plate (716) is accurately positioned just above the blood plate; S03.

When the positioning block (805) stops rotating, the grooves on its surface are precisely aligned with the grooves on the surface of the placement plate (804); the fourth motor (803) is started to drive the first worm (802) to rotate; the first worm (802) is meshed with the four first worm wheels (801) to drive the four first worm wheels (801) to rotate synchronously; the first worm wheel (801) is connected to the placement plate (804) to drive the placement plate (804) to adjust the angle and achieve tilting; the tilting of the placement plate (804) is conducive to the experimenter to visually observe the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the blood plate through the chamber door (2), avoiding frequent opening of the chamber door (2) for observation, thereby effectively preventing pollutants in the external air from entering the interior of the device body (1), ensuring the sterile environment of the blood plate, and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the experiment; S06. When the placement plate (804) is reset to a horizontal angle, the drive mechanism (7) is started again to drive the support plate (716) to move; one end of the support plate (716) is precisely inserted into the groove on the surface of the placement plate (804) and tightly combined with the groove on the surface of the positioning block (805); then, the drive mechanism (7) continues to work, driving the support plate (716) to lift up, holding the bottom of the blood plate for movement; by adjusting the position of the blood plate inside the device body (1), the blood plate is prevented from being in the same position for a long time, and the uneven growth of microorganisms caused by slight differences in local environmental conditions (such as temperature and humidity) is reduced; the position of the blood plate is continuously adjusted so that the microorganisms grow alternately under the environmental conditions of different positions, which helps to improve the uniformity of microbial growth on the entire blood plate and ensure the stability and consistency of the experimental results.
