Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of Agaricus sample display technology, specifically a multifunctional large-scale dynamic observation device for Agaricus. Background Technology

[0002] Macrofungi are diverse in species and vary greatly in morphology. The display of fungi requires extremely stringent preservation conditions. It is necessary to fully preserve the original shape and color of macroscopic structures such as fruiting bodies and stipes, and to clearly present the details of microscopic structures such as sporophytes and mycelia. It is essential to ensure that the macroscopic structure is complete and clear and to solve the problem that the microscopic structure is difficult to observe in order to meet the needs of related displays.

[0003] Currently, there are two main types of large fungal specimen display: drying and immersion. These methods have the following serious drawbacks: (1) Fragile structure and poor clarity: Dried specimens are easily damaged due to moisture loss, and their texture and structure may change due to dampness and mold, interfering with observation; (2) Severe discoloration and high maintenance costs: Immersion specimens are prone to discoloration or discoloration due to prolonged immersion in solution, and maintenance costs are high in practical applications; (3) High risk and high cost: Traditional display methods require difficult specimen transportation. On the one hand, dried specimens are fragile and easily broken, requiring extremely high standards for transportation methods. On the other hand, soaked specimens are heavy and occupy a large area, resulting in high transportation costs. (4) Incomplete display: Traditional methods can only present the macroscopic morphology, and key microscopic information such as the morphological characteristics of spores, the branching structure of hyphae, and the arrangement of the hymenium in the gills is completely missing. Visitors cannot understand the relationship between the cap morphology and spore dispersal, or how hyphae absorb nutrients, resulting in a serious cognitive gap. (5) Lack of interactivity: Dried specimens are fixed in display cases, and soaked specimens are sealed in containers, so visitors can only view them from a distance and cannot explore them independently. Therefore, existing display devices are not suitable for macroscopically fragile and microscopically difficult-to-observe samples such as large fungi. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional large-scale fungal dynamic observation device to solve the problems of existing display devices, such as the fragility of fungal structures, severe discoloration, and the inability to simultaneously observe macroscopic and microscopic structures.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: a multifunctional large-scale agaric dynamic observation device, comprising a base, a main cylinder, a storage chamber, and a spore chamber arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The main cylinder is transparent and detachably connected to the base. An LED strip is provided on the inner side of the upper end of the main cylinder. The main cylinder contains upper and lower baffles and a sample tray. The bottom of the sample tray has a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the base. The base contains a driving mechanism to rotate the rotating shaft. The upper surface of the sample tray has grooves evenly arranged circumferentially for placing samples. The baffles have observation ports, and above the baffles… The main cylinder has a partition that divides its internal cavity into a macroscopic cavity and a microscopic cavity. A guide rail is provided between the partition and the inner wall of the main cylinder in the microscopic cavity. A microscope is slidably mounted on the guide rail and is located directly above the observation port. When the sample in the groove moves to the observation port, the microscope acquires an image of the sample and uploads it to an imaging display screen located on the baffle. A storage chamber is detachably mounted on the top of the main cylinder and is used to store samples. A spore chamber is detachably mounted on the top of the storage chamber and is transparent. Spores are placed in the spore chamber. A top cover with magnification function is detachably mounted on the top of the spore chamber.

[0006] Furthermore, the base contains a fan, which is used to blow air into the main cylinder to regulate the temperature and humidity inside the main cylinder.

[0007] Furthermore, the light strip includes LED lights and ultraviolet lights.

[0008] Furthermore, the base is equipped with an infrared sensor, which powers on the entire device when it detects that the distance between a person and the device reaches a set value.

[0009] Furthermore, the macroscopic cavity contains an optical sensor, which, upon detecting light, drives a mechanism to rotate the sample disk.

[0010] Furthermore, the main cylinder contains a temperature and humidity sensor and a drying mechanism. When the temperature and humidity sensor detects that the humidity inside the main cylinder exceeds a threshold, the drying mechanism is activated to dry the main cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer wall of the main cylinder has a temperature and humidity display screen.

[0012] Furthermore, of the two guide rails, the first guide rail is a light rod, and the microscope is slidably connected to the first guide rail; the second guide rail is a threaded rod, and the microscope has a nut that mates with the second guide rail; the inner wall or partition of the main cylinder has a motor that drives the second guide rail to rotate.

[0013] Furthermore, the groove includes a micro sample groove and a macro sample groove, wherein a permanent sealing slide is placed in the micro sample groove and a specimen made of AB glue is placed in the macro sample groove.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting up a partition, the inner cavity of the main cylinder is divided into a macroscopic cavity and a microscopic cavity. The macroscopic cavity is used for macroscopic observation of the sample, and the microscopic cavity is used for microscopic observation of the sample. The spore chamber facilitates clear observation of spore morphology through the top cover. The microscope can move within the microscopic cavity, which facilitates the acquisition of the sample images to be observed. Attached Figure Description

[0016] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present invention includes a base 1, a main cylinder 2, a temperature and humidity display screen 3, a storage chamber 4, a spore chamber 5, a top cover 6, a baffle 7, a sample tray 8, a microscope 9, and a light strip 10. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the multifunctional large-scale agaric dynamic observation device includes, from bottom to top, a base 1, a main cylinder 2, a storage chamber 4, and a spore chamber 5, as shown. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, base 1 is the basic component of this invention. The bottom of base 1 is flat, used to stand on the ground. Base 1 has a conical structure that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, and base 1 is an opaque component. Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the bottom of the main cylinder 2 is detachably connected to the base 1. The main cylinder 2 is a transparent part, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the inner side of the upper end of the main cylinder 2 has a light strip 10, which has a double-layer structure including LED lights and ultraviolet lights. The light strip 10 provides illumination on the one hand, and disinfection and sterilization on the other. The main cylinder 2 has upper and lower baffles 7 and sample trays 8, as shown. Figure 8 As shown, the sample tray 8 has a rotating shaft 83 at its bottom, and the rotating shaft 83 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The base 1 has a drive mechanism that drives the rotating shaft 83 to rotate. After the drive mechanism is activated, it drives the rotating shaft 83 to rotate in the horizontal plane, thereby driving the sample tray 8 to rotate in the horizontal plane.

[0018] like Figure 8 As shown, the sample tray 8 has a frustum-shaped structure. The bottom surface of the sample tray 8 is flat, and the upper surface is conical. The upper surface of the sample tray 8 has grooves 81 evenly distributed circumferentially. These grooves 81 are used to hold sample boxes 82, which contain samples. The grooves 81 are of two types: microscopic sample grooves and macroscopic sample grooves. The microscopic sample grooves are rectangular, while the macroscopic sample grooves are isosceles trapezoids, making them easy to distinguish. Permanent mounting slides made of circular glass slides are placed in the microscopic sample grooves, while specimens made of AB glue are placed in the macroscopic sample grooves. The grooves 81 can also be other shapes, such as circular, as long as they are easy to distinguish.

[0019] like Figure 7 As shown, the baffle 7 has a conical structure with a hollow bottom. It has two symmetrically arranged observation ports 72, which expose the sample container 82 when it moves below the observation ports 72, allowing for observation of the exposed sample. An imaging display screen 71 is located on the upper surface of the baffle 7, displaying the sample in the permanently sealed slide within the acquired microscopic sample slot. A certain distance exists between the lower surface of the baffle 7 and the upper surface of the sample tray 8 to prevent friction between the rotating sample tray 8 and the baffle 7.

[0020] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a partition 21 is located above the baffle 7. The partition 21 is fixedly connected to the main cylinder 2, and the partition 21 divides the inner cavity of the main cylinder 2 into a macroscopic cavity and a microscopic cavity, which are independently set. Figure 3 As shown, a guide rail 22 is provided between the partition 21 inside the microcavity and the inner wall of the main cylinder 2. A microscope 9 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 22, and the microscope 9 is located directly above the observation port 72. When the sample in the groove 81 moves to the observation port 72, the microscope 9 acquires an image of the sample and uploads it to the imaging display screen 71 located on the baffle 7. At this time, the microscopic image of the sample in the groove 81, which has moved into the microcavity and is located below the observation port 72, can be clearly observed through the imaging display screen 71, thereby understanding the microstructure of the sample.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the storage chamber 4 is detachably mounted on top of the main cylinder 2. The connection between the storage chamber 4 and the main cylinder 2 can be a threaded connection, and the storage chamber 4 is used to store samples. The spore chamber 5 is detachably mounted on top of the storage chamber 4. The connection between the spore chamber 5 and the storage chamber 4 can be a threaded connection, and the spore chamber 5 is a transparent component. Spores for observation are placed inside the spore chamber 5. The spore chamber 5 has a conical structure that is smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. A top cover 6 with magnification function is detachably mounted on the top of the spore chamber 5. The top cover 6 is a transparent component, through which the microscopic characteristics of the spores inside the spore chamber 5 can be observed. The connection between the spore chamber 5 and the top cover 6 can be a threaded connection. After removing the top cover 6, it is convenient to add spores into the spore chamber 5.

[0022] To facilitate the monitoring of temperature and humidity inside the main cylinder 2, a temperature and humidity sensor and a drying mechanism are installed inside the main cylinder 2. When the temperature and humidity sensor detects that the humidity inside the main cylinder 2 exceeds a threshold, the drying mechanism is activated to dry the main cylinder 2. A fan is also installed inside the base 1 to blow air into the main cylinder 2, thereby further regulating the temperature and humidity inside the main cylinder 2. Figure 1 As shown, the outer wall of the main cylinder 2 has a temperature and humidity display screen 3. The temperature and humidity display screen 3 is connected to the temperature and humidity sensor signal. The temperature and humidity display screen 3 is used to display the temperature and humidity inside the main cylinder 2 so as to intuitively understand the temperature and humidity inside the main cylinder 2.

[0023] When someone wants to observe the sample, an infrared sensor is installed on the base 1 to ensure the entire observation device is operational. The device is powered on when the infrared sensor detects that the distance between the person and the device reaches a set value. An optical sensor is located within the macroscopic cavity. Upon detecting light, the optical sensor activates the drive mechanism, causing the sample tray 8 to rotate. During the rotation of the sample tray 8, the sample in the groove 81 within the macroscopic cavity is exposed to the observation port 72, allowing observation of the sample. Within the microscopic cavity, to facilitate sample observation, the sample tray 8 should rotate intermittently. Each rotation of the sample tray 8 moves one groove 81 below the observation port 72. To achieve intermittent rotation of the sample tray 8, a button is provided on the side wall of the main cylinder 2 or the side wall of the base 1. Pressing the button activates the drive mechanism once, causing the sample tray 8 to rotate once. The rotation angle of the sample tray 8 each time is the quotient of 360 degrees and the number of grooves 81.

[0024] To facilitate the movement of the microscope 9, the first guide rail 22 is a light rod, and the microscope 9 is slidably connected to the first guide rail 22. The second guide rail 22 is a threaded rod, and the microscope 9 has a nut that mates with the second guide rail 22. A motor that drives the second guide rail 22 to rotate is located on the inner wall of the main cylinder 2 or on the partition plate 21. When the second guide rail 22 rotates, it moves the microscope 9, while the first guide rail 22 guides the movement of the microscope 9.

[0025] To achieve energy conservation, a photovoltaic panel can be installed at the bottom of the base 1. The photovoltaic panel serves two purposes: firstly, it converts sunlight into electrical energy for storage, thereby powering the entire observation device; secondly, it provides auxiliary fixation, as the photovoltaic panel is fixedly connected to the ground via a bracket, allowing the base 1 to be mounted on the bracket.

[0026] This invention divides the inner cavity of the main cylinder 2 into a macroscopic cavity and a microscopic cavity through the partition 21. The macroscopic cavity is used for macroscopic observation of the sample, while the microscopic cavity is used for microscopic observation. The spore chamber 5 stores spores, and the spore morphology can be clearly observed through the top cover 6. The microscope 9 can move within the microscopic cavity, facilitating the acquisition of images of the samples to be observed. The samples observed by this invention are diverse, including both spores and slides. The lower base of this invention is conical, the middle main cylinder 2 is cylindrical, and the upper spore chamber 5 is conical, making the entire observation device resemble a mushroom egg in shape, which is quite interesting.
