[0002] Ensuring the stability and safety of test samples during storage is crucial. Traditional storage cabinets typically provide only basic physical isolation, lacking precise control over the storage environment and real-time monitoring of sample status. For example, they cannot effectively monitor for accidents such as fires, breakage or tipping of containers, and it is difficult to precisely control environmental parameters such as temperature according to the needs of different samples. This can lead to problems such as sample damage, unreliable experimental data, and safety hazards.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an intelligent storage cabinet for experimental samples to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

The partitions are evenly distributed and adjacent partitions form storage compartments. A heat-insulating buffer pad is set in a groove on the upper surface of the partition to place bottles and jars for test samples. The heat-insulating buffer pad is made of aluminum silicate fiber material. A temperature sensor, installed at the top of the storage compartment, is used to monitor the temperature inside the storage compartment; An integrated camera is installed on the top of the storage compartment to monitor the environment within the storage compartment; The working chamber, located on one side of the storage chamber, is equipped with a suction pump, a fire extinguishing box, and an electric refrigeration unit.

[0021] This invention provides, for example Figures 1-4 The intelligent storage cabinet for test samples shown can precisely control the temperature inside the cabinet according to different test sample retention requirements, ensuring the stability and safety of the samples during storage.
[0022] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the intelligent storage cabinet for test samples includes a storage cabinet 1. The storage cabinet 1 has internal partitions 2, with multiple partitions 2 arranged along the height of the storage cabinet 1. These partitions 2 are evenly distributed, forming storage chambers 3 between adjacent partitions 2. The upper surface of each partition 2 has a groove 4, in which a heat-insulating buffer pad 5 is fitted. Test sample bottles and jars are placed on the heat-insulating buffer pad 5. The heat-insulating buffer pad 5 is made of aluminum silicate fiber material, possessing properties such as high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, thermal shock resistance, low thermal conductivity, high electrical insulation strength, and high elastic modulus. It is used to create a placement pad for bottles and jars, providing heat insulation, fireproofing, and cushioning. It is also resistant to chemical corrosion, making it particularly suitable for test sample retention, preventing accidental spillage and corrosion of the storage cabinet 1.
[0023] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a plurality of circular holes 9 are provided on the top of the storage chamber 3, and the plurality of circular holes 9 are arranged in a matrix. The circular holes 9 are used to allow cold air to enter the storage chamber 3 to achieve the purpose of cooling the storage chamber 3. A temperature sensor 10 is installed on the top of the storage chamber 3 to monitor the temperature inside the storage chamber 3, so as to determine whether cooling is needed in the storage chamber 3 based on the temperature inside the storage chamber 3. This is suitable for test samples with different storage conditions.
[0024] It should be noted that the front of the storage cabinet 1 is equipped with a door, which is not shown in the figure. This is a common technology and will not be described in detail here. When the door closes the storage cabinet 1, it can isolate multiple storage chambers 3, making each storage chamber 3 an independent chamber. The cooling capacity in each storage chamber 3 can be controlled individually, so that a storage cabinet 1 can simultaneously hold multiple bottles and jars with different storage temperature conditions.
[0025] An integrated camera 8 is also installed on the top of storage compartment 3. This integrated camera 8 monitors the environment within storage compartment 3. It integrates cameras such as the DS-2CD2T26GWD-LU and WV-SFV488. The DS-2CD2T26GWD-LU camera uses dual-spectrum technology, fusing visible light and infrared thermal imaging. The visible light portion captures visual images of flames, smoke, etc., using a high-resolution image sensor. Image processing algorithms analyze the color, shape, and dynamic changes to determine if a fire has occurred. The infrared thermal imaging portion detects the temperature distribution on object surfaces. When abnormally high-temperature areas are detected, a comprehensive judgment is made by combining the visible light images, improving the accuracy of fire detection.
[0026] Working process: Visible light camera and infrared thermal imaging camera simultaneously acquire image information in storage room 3; the acquired images are preprocessed, such as noise reduction and contrast enhancement, and then features related to flames, smoke or high temperature are extracted; the extracted features are compared with preset fire feature templates, and if the matching degree reaches the set threshold, it is determined that a fire has occurred; once a fire is confirmed, the alarm system is immediately triggered, and an audible and visual alarm signal is issued. The alarm information can be transmitted to the monitoring center or the mobile devices of relevant personnel through the network. It can also be linked with the fire protection system, such as activating fire extinguishing equipment.
[0027] The WV-SFV488 camera utilizes a high-resolution image sensor and advanced image analysis technology to accurately identify and track objects within the monitored area. By setting specific monitoring areas and object feature templates, when abnormal situations such as bottles or jars breaking or tipping over occur, their shape, position, and other features will change significantly. The camera can capture these changes in a timely manner and compare them with the preset normal state to determine whether an abnormal event has occurred.
[0028] Working process: In the camera's monitoring software, the area to be monitored for bottles and jars is set, and a template of the object's features under normal conditions is created, including information such as shape, size, and position. The camera continuously collects images of the monitored area and analyzes the objects in the images in real time to extract their feature information. The extracted object features are compared with the preset template. If a large deviation is found, such as an incomplete object shape (broken) or a shift in position (tilted), it is judged as an abnormal event. Once an abnormal event is detected, an alarm signal is immediately issued, and the image or video of the abnormal event is stored and recorded for later viewing and analysis.
[0029] Alternatively, you can directly use the DS-2CD2327-I smart surveillance camera. This camera is based on deep learning intelligent analysis technology and can identify and analyze objects and events in the monitored area in real time. For fire monitoring, it can identify features such as flames and smoke; for monitoring bottles and cans, it can identify abnormal situations such as changes in the shape of objects and movement of their positions.
[0030] Working process: The camera collects images in storage room 3 in real time, and uses deep learning algorithms to analyze the images to identify features such as flames, smoke, changes in object shape, and positional movement. When fire features or abnormal conditions of bottles and cans are detected, it is determined that the corresponding event has occurred, triggering the alarm system to issue an alarm signal. The alarm information can also be sent to relevant personnel or systems via the network. At the same time, it can be linked to other devices, such as activating fire extinguishing equipment and issuing voice prompts.
[0031] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a working chamber 11 is provided inside the storage cabinet 1. The working chamber 11 is located on one side of the storage chamber 3. A suction pump 12, a fire extinguishing box 18 and an electric refrigeration unit 19 are provided in the working chamber 11. The suction pump 12 is provided with three pipes: a second pipe 20, a third pipe 21 and a first pipe 7. The first pipe 7 connects to the outside of the storage cabinet 1. The upper end of the third pipe 21 is provided with a main pipe 13, and multiple auxiliary pipes 14 are provided on the main pipe 13. The top of the storage chamber 3 is also provided with a transfer chamber 17. Multiple round holes 9 are all connected to the inside of the transfer chamber 17. The side of the transfer chamber 17 is provided with a conveying channel 16, which is connected to the corresponding auxiliary pipe 14. When the suction pump 12 is started, the outside air can be conveyed to the corresponding storage chamber 3 through the first pipe 7, the main pipe 13, the auxiliary pipe 14, the conveying channel 16, the transfer chamber 17 and the round holes 9 in sequence. When the door is opened, the debris, dust and other debris inside the storage chamber 3 can be blown out at once, making cleaning convenient. The second pipe 20 is connected to the electric chiller 19. The electric chiller 19 is powered on for cooling. The cold air can be transported to the storage chamber 3 through the third pipe 21 via the second pipe 20, the main pipe 13, the auxiliary pipe 14, the conveying channel 16, the transfer chamber 17 and the round hole 9, creating good storage conditions. The third pipe 21 is connected to the fire extinguishing box 18, which stores fire extinguishing dry powder. When the suction pump 12 is started, the fire extinguishing dry powder can be transported to the storage chamber 3 through the third pipe 21, the main pipe 13, the auxiliary pipe 14, the conveying channel 16, the transfer chamber 17 and the round hole 9 in sequence, so as to realize the function of extinguishing fire inside the storage chamber 3 and avoid the phenomenon of spontaneous combustion when storing chemical reagents in the storage chamber 3, which is safe and reliable.
[0032] Furthermore, in this invention, solenoid valves 15 are provided in the auxiliary pipe 14, the third pipe 21, the second pipe 20, and the first pipe 7. The solenoid valves 15 are used to control the opening and closing of the pipes. The solenoid valves 15, the suction pump 12, the integrated camera 8, and the temperature sensor 10 are connected through a hollow chip. The input end of the solenoid valve 15 is connected to the output end of the control chip, the input ends of the suction pump 12 and the temperature sensor 10 are connected to the output end of the control chip, and the output end of the integrated camera 8 is connected to the input end of the control chip. When storage cabinet 1 is used, integrated camera 8 monitors whether the test samples in storage chamber 3 are spontaneously combusted, tipped over, or broken, and feeds this information back to the control chip. If a fire occurs, the control chip controls the solenoid valve 15 in the third pipe 21 to open, and the solenoid valve 15 in the suction pump 12 and the corresponding auxiliary pipe 14 to open, so as to transport the fire extinguishing dry powder stored in the fire extinguishing box 18 to the corresponding storage chamber 3 for fire extinguishing.
[0033] If the test sample is tipped over or broken, the control chip will send this information to the terminal: tablet computer, mobile phone, etc., so that the staff can know the situation in storage room 3 in a timely manner.
[0034] If the temperature sensor 10 detects that the temperature around the test sample is too high, the temperature sensor 10 will feed this information back to the control chip. The control chip will then control the suction pump 12, the electric chiller 19, the solenoid valve 15 in the corresponding auxiliary pipe 14 and the solenoid valve 15 in the second pipe 20 to open, so as to deliver the cold energy to the corresponding storage chamber 3, cool down the test sample and ensure that the storage conditions are suitable.
[0035] It should be noted that the control chip can be a commercially available 8-bit AVR microcontroller, model ATmega328P, which has rich peripheral interfaces and large storage capacity and is widely used in various embedded control systems. The bottom of the storage cabinet 1 is also equipped with a vacuum chamber 6 to reduce the heat transfer from the bottom to the storage chamber 3, making the storage cabinet 1 more energy-efficient when storing test samples.
