Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental monitoring technology, specifically to a pollen counter. Background Technology

[0002] Pollen count is a seasonal component of air quality monitoring, typically conducted in spring. Traditional pollen counting methods primarily employ gravity sedimentation to collect pollen. Glass slides coated with adhesive substances such as petroleum jelly or paraffin are exposed to the air. Over time, pollen settles and adheres to the slide surface. After a certain period, the slide is retrieved, stained with a solvent-based dye, and then baked to fix the pollen. Then, pollen is classified and counted manually under a microscope. Experienced observers carefully examine each row of the magnified pollen sample under a biological optical microscope, manually identifying pollen particle types and counting the number of different pollen types and the total pollen count.

[0003] Although this detection method can meet basic detection needs, its detection efficiency is extremely low, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention proposes a pollen counter that can automatically detect and count pollen, thus replacing manual labor.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the pollen counter of the present invention includes a housing, an air inlet on the housing, an air outlet on the housing, an electrical interface on the housing, and a counting mechanism for detecting and counting pollen inside the housing.

[0006] Furthermore, a PCB board is provided inside the housing, and the counting mechanism includes a laser counter for detecting pollen, which is mounted on the PCB board.

[0007] Furthermore, a vortex fan is provided on the PCB board, and an airflow channel is formed on the inner side of the casing.

[0008] Furthermore, a pollen collector is provided on the PCB board, located at the end of the airflow channel.

[0009] Furthermore, the pollen collector is equipped with a sticky trap.

[0010] Furthermore, a flow meter is installed inside the casing.

[0011] The pollen counter of the present invention can automatically detect and count pollen, thus replacing manual labor. Attached Figure Description
