Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bacterial strain culture devices, in particular to a tube rack for mother strain mycelium culture. Background Art

[0002] In the cultivation of edible fungi, the mother strain mycelium can be expanded and reproduced through test tube cultivation. The cultivation process of the mother strain mycelium is as follows: select a suitable culture medium to make a mixed liquid, take a clean test tube and use a dropper to absorb the mixed liquid and drop it into the test tube and plug it tightly with a cotton ball, then put the test tube filled with the liquid into the sterilization box for high-temperature sterilization, tilt the tube to make the liquid in the test tube into an inclined surface, take out the strain stored in the bottle, use a sterile pipette to take a small amount of the culture medium in the test tube and then fill the sealing plug back, and after completion, place the test tube in the incubator with a pad or test tube rack tilted for cultivation. Tilt cultivation is conducive to expanding the liquid surface and facilitating the evaporation of water vapor.

[0003] At present, there are the following problems when placing test tubes in an incubator by tilting them through pads or test tube racks: first, the test tubes are not stable when placed through pads, and they are easy to accidentally touch other test tubes when taken, causing the test tubes to rotate, so that the condensed water vapor on the tube wall floods the mycelium and affects the mycelium growth; second, the traditional test tube racks place the test tubes vertically, and cannot be tilted for cultivation, and the tilt angle of the test tubes cannot be adjusted. In addition, the support parts of the traditional test tube racks are easy to form obstructions, resulting in uneven temperature and humidity of the test tubes, which affects the mycelium growth. Therefore, the present application proposes a tube rack for mother stock mycelium culture. Utility Model Content

[0005] A tube rack for mother seed mycelium culture, comprising a base, a support rod, a test tube clamp and a test tube support plate, wherein the base comprises a group of side rods and a reinforcing rod connected between the side rods, the support rod is vertically arranged at one end of the side rod, the test tube clamp comprises a transverse connecting rod and a U-shaped clamp strip, both ends of the connecting rod are connected to the support rod, the U-shaped clamp strip is uniformly arranged on the connecting rod at an inclined angle, the test tube support plate is arranged at the other end of the support rod facing the U-shaped clamp strip, and a limiting hole for limiting the bottom of the test tube is provided on the support plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the two ends of the connecting rod are rotatably connected to the supporting rod, a group of side rods are provided with movable grooves, a group of adjustment plates are movably installed in the movable grooves, the tops of the adjustment plates have slopes, and the two ends of the test tube holder are placed on the adjustment plates.

[0007] Furthermore, a rubber layer is provided on the surface of the U-shaped clamping strip, and a rubber ring is provided in the limiting hole.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0009] The U-shaped clamp and the test tube support provided in the present application can tilt and clamp the test tube to keep it stable, thus solving the problem that the test tube is unstable when currently placed at an angle for cultivation on a pad or a test tube rack, and it is easy to accidentally touch other test tubes when taking them out, causing the test tube to rotate. The two ends of the connecting rod of the present application are rotatably connected to the support rod, and a group of adjustment plates are movably installed in the movable groove to support the test tube support, so that the test tube can be placed at an angle and the tilt angle of the test tube can be adjusted. The test tube can be placed at the optimal mycelium culture slope according to the cultivation requirements. At the same time, the base structure will not prevent the test tube from evenly receiving the culture conditions in the incubator, thereby ensuring the uniform growth of the mycelium.
