[0021] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0022] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0023] The utility model provides an outdoor spore collecting box, comprising: a collecting mechanism 101, a supporting mechanism and an air intake mechanism;

[0024] The collecting mechanism 101 and the air intake mechanism are connected via an air intake pipe 203, and the air intake mechanism is above the collecting mechanism 101;

[0025] One side of the collecting mechanism 101 is fixedly connected to the supporting mechanism, and the supporting mechanism is fixed on a horizontal ground.

[0026] In this preferred embodiment, the air intake mechanism includes an air intake chamber and a filter chamber 204. The filter chamber 204 is arranged directly above the air intake mechanism, and the filter chamber 204 is fixedly connected to the air intake chamber. The lower part of the air intake chamber is connected to one end of the air intake pipe 203, and the other end of the air intake pipe 203 is connected to the collection mechanism 101.

[0027] It is understandable that by providing the filter chamber 204, dust and other particulate matter in the air can be effectively filtered out to avoid contamination of the spores by these impurities, thereby ensuring the purity of the collected samples.

[0028] In this preferred embodiment, the air intake chamber includes an air intake bin 201 and an air intake pump 202 . The air intake pump 202 is disposed below the air intake bin 201 , and the lower end of the air intake pump 202 is connected to one end of the air intake pipe 203 .

[0029] In this preferred embodiment, the collection mechanism 101 includes a collection bin and a control component. The collection bin is a shell with one side open. The open side of the collection bin is connected to a side panel via a rotating shaft. The side panel is detachably connected to the other side of the shell via a buckle 104. The control component is disposed inside the collection bin.

[0030] It can be understood that the side plate of the collection bin is detachably connected to the other side of the shell through the buckle 104 structure, which is convenient for collecting and replacing the collection medium. At the same time, the design of the hard pipe ensures the stability of gas circulation.

[0031] In this preferred embodiment, the collection bin includes a sampler 106 and a collection medium. The sampler 106 includes a plurality of horizontal sieve plates, each of which has holes of different sizes, and each of which is provided with a collection medium.

[0032] It is understood that the design of the air intake mechanism enables the spores in the air to be effectively sucked into the collection chamber, and the spore collection efficiency is improved by setting the sampler 106 with sieve plates of different sizes. When the air passes through these holes, larger particles will hit the plate due to inertia and be collected, while smaller particles may pass through the sieve holes to the next layer. The collection medium will be placed on these plates to capture and cultivate the impacted spores.

[0033] The collection medium is usually a thin, sticky layer that can be coated on a plate, slide or other suitable carrier. This sticky material can be liquid, semi-solid or gel-like so that spores in the air can adhere to it. The chemical composition of the collection medium can be varied, and common ones include agar, silica gel, petroleum jelly, polyvinyl alcohol or other synthetic adhesives. These substances can provide a surface suitable for spore attachment and may contain nutrients to promote the survival and growth of spores. In order to improve the capture efficiency of spores, the surface of the collection medium may be designed with specific textures or microstructures, such as grooves, grids or other patterns. These designs help increase the surface area, thereby providing more attachment points. In addition, the collection medium should have good biocompatibility and will not cause damage to the captured spores or microorganisms, nor should it promote the growth of harmful microorganisms.

[0034] In summary, the present application provides an outdoor spore collection box, including a collection mechanism 101, a support mechanism and an air intake mechanism, which is simple in design and easy to manufacture and operate. The design of the air intake mechanism enables spores in the air to be effectively sucked into the collection bin, and the spore collection efficiency is improved by setting a sampler 106 with sieve plates of different sizes. The side plate of the collection bin is detachably connected to the other side of the shell through a buckle 104 structure, which is convenient for collecting and replacing the collection medium. At the same time, the design of the hard pipe ensures the stability of gas circulation.

[0035] In another embodiment of the present application, a control component and a supporting mechanism may be added to further optimize the above-mentioned collection box, wherein the control component includes a temperature and humidity sensor 102, a timer 105 and a data recorder 103, the temperature and humidity sensor 102 is electrically connected to the data recorder 103, and the timer 105 is electrically connected to the data recorder 103.

[0036] It is understandable that the setting of control components such as the temperature and humidity sensor 102, the timer 105 and the data logger 103 can monitor the environmental conditions in real time and adjust the collection parameters as needed to ensure the accuracy of the collection process.

[0037] In this preferred embodiment, the support mechanism includes a support member 301 and a rainproof member 300. One end of the support member 301 is connected to the ground, and the other end is connected to the rainproof member 300. The rainproof member 300 is arranged above the collecting mechanism 101 and the air intake mechanism, and one side of the collecting mechanism 101 is connected to the support member 301.

[0038] It can be understood that, by providing the rainproof member 300, the collection box of the present invention can work stably under various weather conditions, thereby ensuring the continuity of spore collection.

[0039] In this preferred embodiment, the air inlet pipe 203 is a hard pipe, and the lower end of the air inlet pipe 203 is connected to the top of the collecting mechanism 101.

[0040] A collection box for capturing spores outdoors in the above-mentioned embodiments is concise in design, and includes a collection mechanism, a support mechanism, and an air intake mechanism, and is easy to manufacture and operate. By providing a rainproof member, the collection box can work stably under various weather conditions, thereby ensuring the continuity of spore collection. The design of the air intake mechanism enables spores in the air to be effectively sucked into the collection bin, and by providing samplers with sieve plates of different sizes, the efficiency of spore collection is improved. The provision of control components such as temperature and humidity sensors, timers, and data recorders can monitor environmental conditions in real time, and adjust collection parameters as needed to ensure the accuracy of the collection process. The side panel of the collection bin is detachably connected to the other side of the shell through a snap-fit ​​structure, which is convenient for collecting and replacing the collection medium, and the design of the hard pipe ensures the stability of gas circulation.

[0041] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
