[0008] Preferably, the dispersion mechanism includes a plate, a guide tube, a connecting tube, and a dispersion component. The four corners of the top of the plate are bolted to the inner wall of the top of the incubator, and a damper is bolted to the outer wall of the damper. A spring is fitted onto the outer wall of the damper. The two sides of the bottom of the plate are bolted to the brackets. The two brackets are fixedly connected to the guide tube. An exhaust port is provided at the bottom of the guide tube. The connecting tube is fixedly connected to the exhaust port. Multiple exhaust holes are provided on the outer circumference of the connecting tube near the bottom. The exhaust holes are inclined downwards. A portion of the upper end of the dispersion component is located inside the connecting tube.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the air intake pipe is fixed with an air nozzle, and the air nozzle is conical in shape. One end of the air nozzle is provided with a through pipe, and one end of the through pipe is connected to a flexible hose through a flange. One side of the pipe is provided with an air intake end, and the air intake end and the flexible hose are connected through a flange.

[0010] Preferably, the dispersing assembly consists of an impeller, a rotating rod, a rotating disk, and multiple dispersing blades. The rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe via a bearing. The top of the rotating rod is bolted to the bottom of the impeller, and the bottom of the rotating rod is bolted to the top of the rotating disk. The multiple dispersing blades are fixed at equal intervals on the outer circumference of the rotating disk.

[0011] Preferably, the incubator is provided with a pressing mechanism inside, and the pressing mechanism and the dispersing mechanism cooperate with each other.

[0012] Preferably, the pressing mechanism consists of a transmission assembly and a nozzle, with the transmission assembly fixed to one side of the plate, an exhaust end provided on one side of the top of the pipe, the bottom of the nozzle connected to the exhaust end via a flange, and the top of the nozzle being inclined.

[0013] Preferably, the transmission assembly consists of a shaft, two half gears, two racks, a connecting sleeve, and multiple rotating blades. The two ends of the shaft are rotatably connected to the two sides of the incubation box via bearings. The connecting sleeve is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the shaft. The multiple rotating blades are fixed at equal intervals on the circumferential outer wall of the connecting sleeve. The two half gears are fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the shaft. One side of the two racks is connected to the plate body via bolts, and the racks mesh with the half gears.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. This invention, through its dispersing mechanism, involves placing corn germ on a cultivation rack during the cultivation process. After placement, the lid is closed, and the heater is activated to heat the interior of the heating chamber. A temperature controller regulates the temperature within the heating chamber. The pump is then activated to extract hot air from the heating chamber and deliver it into the cultivation chamber. A temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the cultivation chamber. During this process, hot air is delivered through an inlet pipe to an air nozzle, which then propels the hot air into a duct. The hot air contacts the impeller during delivery. Because the air nozzle is conical, the hot air travels through the hose and... The flow rate through the pipe increases, which in turn increases the impact of the hot air on the impeller. The impeller then drives the rotating rod to rotate under the impact of the hot air, and the turntable rotates synchronously with the rotating rod. As the turntable rotates, it also drives the dispersing blades to rotate. The hot air inside the connecting pipe is discharged downward through the exhaust port, and the discharged hot air comes into contact with the rotating dispersing blades. Therefore, the hot air is diffused under the action of the dispersing blades, thus widening the distribution range of the hot air. This helps to reduce the temperature difference inside the incubator, thereby improving the cultivation effect of corn germ and preventing the temperature difference caused by the wide distribution range of corn germ during cultivation, which would otherwise affect the cultivation of corn germ. 2. This invention, through its dispersion and pressing mechanisms, disperses the hot air inside the incubator. A portion of the hot air is ejected obliquely through a nozzle, contacting the inner wall of the incubator. This oblique contact causes reflection, further increasing the distribution range of the hot air. Simultaneously, the ejected hot air contacts the rotating blades, which, under the impact of the hot air, drive the shaft to rotate. The half-gear rotates synchronously with the shaft. When the half-gear meshes with the rack, the rack, under the action of the half-gear, moves the plate downwards, compressing the hot air inside the incubator. This increases the molecular motion within the hot air, improving its flow velocity and allowing for rapid distribution within the incubator, thus enhancing the cultivation effect of corn germ.

[0017] Example 1, referring to Figures 1-6 A temperature control device for corn germ cultivation includes a cultivation box 1. Both sides of the cultivation box 1 are hinged to lids 7. Each lid 7 has a handle bolted to one side. A monitoring hole is formed through one side of one lid 7, and a temperature sensor 8 is inserted into the inner wall of the monitoring hole. A base 2 is bolted to the bottom of the cultivation box 1, and a heating chamber 3 is formed inside the base 2. A panel 4 is bolted to one side of the heating chamber 3, and a temperature controller 5 is bolted to one side of the panel 4. Multiple... Through hole 6, a pump body 11 is bolted to one side of the outer wall of the cultivation box 1, and an air outlet pipe 10 is provided between one end of the pump body 11 and the heating chamber 3, and an air inlet pipe 12 is provided between the other end of the pump body 11 and the inner wall of the cultivation box 1. A dispersion mechanism 13 is provided inside the cultivation box 1 to make the hot air distribution range wide, so as to reduce the temperature difference inside the cultivation box 1, thereby improving the cultivation effect of corn germ, and preventing the temperature difference caused by the wide distribution range of corn germ during cultivation, which would affect the cultivation of corn germ.

[0018] Based on the above, guide rails 15 are bolted to the inner walls of both sides of the incubator 1, and guide plates 16 are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two guide rails 15. An incubator rack 17 is bolted between the two guide plates 16.

[0019] Based on the above, guide holes are provided on both sides of the incubator 1 and both sides of the heating chamber 3. An exhaust pipe 9 is fixed between two adjacent guide holes. A one-way exhaust valve 14 is fixed at one end of the exhaust pipe 9. The one-way exhaust valve 14 is located inside the incubator 1.

[0020] Based on the above, the dispersion mechanism 13 includes a plate 18, a conduit 22, a connecting pipe 27, and a dispersion component 29. The four corners of the top of the plate 18 are connected to the inner top wall of the incubator 1 by bolts, and a damper 20 is fitted on the outer wall of the damper 20. A spring 19 is fitted on the outer wall of the damper 20. The two sides of the bottom of the plate 18 are connected to the brackets 21 by bolts. The two brackets 21 are fixedly connected to the conduit 22. An exhaust port is opened at the bottom of the conduit 22. The connecting pipe 27 is fixedly connected to the exhaust port. A plurality of exhaust holes 28 are opened on the outer circumference of the connecting pipe 27 near the bottom. The exhaust holes 28 are inclined downward. A part of the upper end of the dispersion component 29 is located inside the connecting pipe 27.

[0021] Based on the above, an air nozzle 24 is fixed at one end of the air intake pipe 12, and the air nozzle 24 is conical in shape. A through pipe 25 is provided at one end of the air nozzle 24, and a hose 26 is connected to one end of the through pipe 25 through a flange. An air intake end is provided on one side of the conduit 22, and the air intake end is connected to the hose 26 through a flange.

[0022] Based on the above, the dispersion assembly 29 consists of an impeller 31, a rotating rod 30, a rotating disk 32, and multiple dispersion blades 33. The rotating rod 30 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 27 through a bearing. The top of the rotating rod 30 is bolted to the bottom of the impeller 31, and the bottom of the rotating rod 30 is bolted to the top of the rotating disk 32. Multiple dispersion blades 33 are fixed at equal intervals on the outer circumference of the rotating disk 32.

[0023] Example 2, refer to Figures 1-8 A temperature control device for corn germ cultivation, compared with Example 1, has a pressing mechanism 23 installed inside the cultivation box 1, and the pressing mechanism 23 cooperates with the dispersing mechanism 13.

[0024] Based on the above, the pressing mechanism 23 consists of a transmission assembly 35 and a nozzle 34. The transmission assembly 35 is fixed to one side of the plate 18. An exhaust end is provided on one side of the top of the pipe 25. The bottom of the nozzle 34 is connected to the exhaust end through a flange. The top of the nozzle 34 is inclined, and some hot air will be ejected at an angle through the nozzle 34. The hot air ejected at an angle will contact the inner wall of the cultivation box 1. At this time, since the hot air is in inclined contact with the inner wall of the cultivation box 1, the hot air will be reflected when it touches the inner wall of the cultivation box 1. Thus, the distribution range of the hot air can be further improved through the reflection of the hot air. When the half gear 39 meshes with the rack 40 when it rotates, the rack 40 will drive the plate 18 to move downward under the action of the half gear 39. Thus, the plate 18 compresses the hot air inside the cultivation box 1, thereby improving the molecular motion inside the hot air, so as to improve the flow speed of the hot air, so that the hot air is quickly distributed inside the cultivation box 1, improving the cultivation effect of corn germ.

[0025] Based on the above, the transmission assembly 35 consists of a shaft 36, two half gears 39, two racks 40, a connecting sleeve 37, and multiple rotating blades 38. The two ends of the shaft 36 are rotatably connected to the two sides of the incubator 1 through bearings. The connecting sleeve 37 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the shaft 36. The multiple rotating blades 38 are fixed at equal intervals on the circumferential outer wall of the connecting sleeve 37. The two half gears 39 are fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the shaft 36. One side of the two racks 40 is connected to the plate 18 by bolts. The racks 40 and the half gears 39 mesh with each other.

[0026] In summary, using the above-mentioned technical solution of the present invention: when cultivating corn germ, the corn germ is placed on the cultivation rack 17. After placement, the box cover 7 is closed, the heater is started, and the interior of the heating chamber 3 is heated by the heater. The temperature inside the heating chamber 3 is controlled by the temperature controller 5. The pump body 11 is started, and the pump body 11 extracts the hot air inside the heating chamber 3 and delivers it to the interior of the cultivation box 1. The temperature inside the cultivation box 1 is monitored by the temperature sensor 8. During this process, the hot air is delivered to the interior of the air nozzle 24 through the air inlet pipe 12, and then delivered to the guide tube through the air nozzle 24. Inside pipe 22, the hot air comes into contact with impeller 31 during transport. Because nozzle 24 is conical, the flow velocity of the hot air through hose 26 and pipe 25 increases, increasing the impact force of the hot air on impeller 31. Impeller 31, under the impact of the hot air, drives rotor 30 to rotate. Rotary disc 32 rotates synchronously with rotor 30, and simultaneously drives dispersing vanes 33 to rotate. The hot air inside connecting pipe 27 is discharged downwards through exhaust port 28, and the discharged hot air comes into contact with the rotating dispersing vanes 33. Therefore, the hot air is further agitated by the action of the dispersing vanes 33. The heat diffuses, thus widening the distribution range of the hot air, which helps reduce the temperature difference inside the incubator 1, thereby improving the cultivation effect of corn germ. This prevents the wide distribution of corn germ during cultivation from causing temperature differences that could negatively impact its development. During the heat dispersion process inside the incubator 1, some of the hot air is ejected at an angle through nozzle 34. This angled ejection of hot air contacts the inner wall of the incubator 1. Because of this angled contact, the hot air is reflected upon contact with the inner wall, further enhancing its heat dissipation. During the distribution of the hot air, the ejected hot air will come into contact with the rotating blade 38, and the rotating blade 38 will drive the shaft 36 to rotate under the impact of the hot air. At this time, the half gear 39 will rotate synchronously with the rotation of the shaft 36. When the half gear 39 meshes with the rack 40 during rotation, the rack 40 will drive the plate 18 to move downward under the action of the half gear 39, thereby compressing the hot air inside the cultivation box 1 through the plate 18, thereby increasing the molecular motion inside the hot air, so as to increase the flow speed of the hot air, so that the hot air is quickly distributed inside the cultivation box 1, improving the cultivation effect of corn germ.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
