Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of spore collection, in particular to a cordyceps sinensis spore collection device. Background Art

[0002] Cordyceps sinensis is a precious tonic herb. Due to over-harvesting, the number of wild Cordyceps sinensis has dropped sharply, and the natural ecological environment of the Cordyceps sinensis production area has been irreversibly damaged. Artificial cultivation of Cordyceps sinensis has not yet overcome the problems of low yield and low content of effective ingredients.

[0003] A single Cordyceps sinensis is small, and the amount of spores ejected is small, making it difficult to collect. Usually, the spores of Cordyceps sinensis are collected by bagging. When the ascus of Cordyceps sinensis begins to eject spores, the bagging needs to be completed in time, so the time is very tight. If the bagging is not timely, the spores will be ejected to the outside of the collection bag, which will cause great losses.

[0004] In the prior art, Cordyceps sinensis is fixed, and then the fruiting body of the Cordyceps is inverted downward, and then flowing sterile water is provided below the Cordyceps to make the spores sprayed from the fruiting body into the water, and then the spores are filtered and collected. Since a large number of Cordyceps are inverted with the fruiting body facing downward, after the natural spraying of the fruiting body, some of the spores will fall back onto the remaining Cordyceps, or float in the space above the sterile water, and the spores cannot be completely recovered, resulting in some spores being unable to be recovered, and the Cordyceps needs to be manually processed for a second time in the later stage.

[0005] Therefore, how to design a spore collection device that can completely recover spores on the fruiting body has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0026] The present embodiment provides a Cordyceps sinensis spore collection device, which is mainly used to improve the collection efficiency of Cordyceps sinensis spores and solve the problem of secondary recovery of Cordyceps sinensis spores.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, it includes a box structure formed by a lower box body 11 and an upper box body 12, wherein a support plate 13 is fixedly arranged inside the box body, and a water inlet pipe 15 and a water outlet pipe 16 are arranged on the side wall of the lower box body 11, wherein the inner cavity of the lower box body 11 is filled with sterile water, and a plurality of cordyceps positioners 2 for fixing cordyceps and vertically pointing the fruiting body part 32 of the cordyceps downward are arranged on the support plate 13, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, an air cavity 26 is provided in the Cordyceps locator 2, and a drainage portion is provided on the Cordyceps locator 2 to drain the gas inside the air cavity 26 to the Cordyceps fruiting body 32; a matrix carrying groove 14 for providing nutrition for the Cordyceps is also provided in the upper box body 12, and the matrix carrying groove 14 is filled with a matrix.

[0028] Through the above arrangement, when the spores of Cordyceps need to be collected, the Cordyceps is placed inside the box in a sterile environment, and the fruiting body 32 of the Cordyceps is vertically downward, such as Figure 3As shown, sterile water is then pumped into the inner cavity of the lower box body 11 through the water inlet pipe 15, so that the sterile water flows out through the water outlet pipe 16. When the fruiting body 32 naturally sprays spores, the spores move vertically downward and spray onto the water surface, wherein some spores will float in the air or adhere to adjacent Cordyceps. In order to solve the problem of recovering floating spores, as shown in Figure 3, at this time, gas is filled into the air cavity 26 in the Cordyceps locator 2. At this time, the gas flows to the fruiting body 32 of the Cordyceps under the action of the drainage part. At this time, the gas is sprayed onto the fruiting body 32 at a high speed and the mature spores are vertically drooped downward onto the water surface, thereby solving the problem of spores floating in the air and improving the recovery efficiency of spores.

[0029] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the support plate 13 is installed between the upper box body 12 and the lower box body 11, and the cordyceps locator 2 is fixed by the support plate 13. At this time, the support plate 13 also seals the opening at the upper end of the lower box body 11. At this time, the gas ejected by the cordyceps locator 2 will remain in the inner cavity of the lower box body 11. In order to lead the gas outward, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the side wall of the lower box body 11 is also provided with an exhaust hole 18.

[0030] Through the above arrangement, the gas ejected from the Cordyceps locator 2 is first ejected onto the fruiting body 32 of the Cordyceps, and then the gas impacts the sterile water surface, sending the spores into the sterile water, and then the gas rises upward and flows out through the exhaust holes 18 on the lower box body 11, thereby realizing gas discharge and preventing the pressure in the inner cavity of the lower box body 11 from increasing.

[0031] In order to accelerate the ripening of the spores on the fruiting body 32 and increase the yield of Cordyceps spores, in this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a light source 17 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the lower box body 11 to enhance the illumination of the fruiting body 32, increase the yield of spores, and accelerate the maturation of spores.

[0032] In order to achieve the fixation of Cordyceps, in this embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the Cordyceps locator 2 includes a first cover body 21 with an opening upward and a second cover body 22 with an opening downward, wherein the insect body part 31 of the Cordyceps is installed in the inner cavity formed by the first cover body 21 and the second cover body 22 to fix the insect body part 31. At this time, the connecting end 221 of the second cover body 22 is inserted into the inner cavity of the first cover body 21, and the connecting end 221 is threadedly connected to the side wall of the inner cavity of the first cover body 21, thereby fixing the insect body part 31.

[0033] In order to extend the fruiting body 32 of the Cordyceps vertically downward, in this embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the bottom wall of the first cover body 21 is provided with an outlet 214 opening downward, wherein the fruiting body part 32 of the Cordyceps extends vertically downward through the outlet 214 .

[0034] Since the body parts 31 of the Cordyceps sinensis are of different sizes, in order to solve the problem of the body parts 31 shaking in the inner cavity formed by the first cover 21 and the second cover 22, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the outer side of the insect body part 31 is wrapped with a wrapping cloth 23, and the wrapping cloth 23 wrapped on the outer side of the insect body part 31 is placed in the inner cavity formed by the first cover body 21 and the second cover body 22, and the wrapping cloth 23 abuts against the inner wall of the inner cavity, thereby being able to solve the problem of shaking of the insect body part 31.

[0035] In order to provide a substrate for Cordyceps, in this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a lead-in port 223 is provided on the top of the second cover body 22 , and a cotton strip 24 extending outward through the lead-in port 223 is provided on the wrapping cloth 23 , wherein the cotton strip 24 extends into the matrix bearing groove 14 and contacts the matrix.

[0036] Through the above arrangement, the cotton strip 24 is used to drain the matrix in the matrix bearing groove 14 to the wrapping cloth 23, so that the wrapping cloth 23 remains moist, and the matrix is ​​continuously supplied to the insect body part 31 for the growth of the fruiting body part 32.

[0037] In order to form the air cavity 26 on the Cordyceps locator 2, in this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the Cordyceps locator 2 also includes an air hood 25. When the first cover body 21 and the second cover body 22 are connected as a whole and the insect body part 31 is fixed, the air hood 25 is sleeved on the outside of the first cover body 21, and the inner wall of the air hood 25, the outer wall of the first cover body 21, and the outer wall of the second cover body 22 are used to form an air cavity 26 to store external gas.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the outer wall of the first cover body 21 is provided with an external thread 212, wherein the inner wall of the air hood 25 is provided with an internal thread threadedly connected to the external thread 212, so as to fix the air hood 25 to the first cover body 21. In order to prevent the air hood 25 from being excessively sleeved on the outer side of the first cover body 21, in this embodiment, the peripheral wall of the second cover body 22 is provided with a limiting rib 222 extending radially outward. When the air hood 25 moves downward, the top wall of the air hood 25 abuts against the top wall of the limiting rib 222, thereby limiting the movement of the air hood 25 and realizing the positioning of the air hood 25.

[0039] In order to guide the gas in the air cavity 26 to the fruiting body 32 of the Cordyceps sinensis, in this embodiment, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drainage portion includes an air duct 211 and an air guide duct 213, wherein a plurality of air ducts 211 are provided and are evenly distributed along the circumference of the first cover body 21, the air duct 211 is arranged on the peripheral wall of the first cover body 21 and along the axial direction of the first cover body 21, the end of the first cover body 21 is tapered, the air guide duct 213 is arranged on the conical surface of the first cover body 21 and is connected to the air duct 211, each air guide duct 213 corresponds to an air duct 211, the gas flowing out of the air duct 211 is guided to the ascus of the fruiting body part 32, and the gas is transported vertically downward to accelerate the ejected spores to contact with the sterile water surface.

[0040] In order to guide the gas flowing through the air duct 211 to the air guide duct 213, as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, after the air hood 25 is installed, a guide portion with an inverted trapezoidal longitudinal section is installed at the bottom of the air hood 25, wherein the bottom side of the trapezoid is smaller than the top side of the trapezoid, and the guide portion is used to guide the airflow to the air guide duct 213, thereby achieving a change in direction of the airflow.

[0041] It is worth noting here that the guide portion is detachably connected to the air hood 25 .

[0042] In order to transport gas into the gas cavity 26, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, an outer wall of the air hood 25 is provided with an air inlet pipe 251 arranged along a tangent line of the air hood 25 , wherein the air inlet pipe 251 is communicated with the air cavity 26 .

[0043] Through the above arrangement, when the gas enters the air cavity 26 through the air inlet pipe 251, the gas flows downward in a spiral around the peripheral wall of the air cavity 26, and the gas flows out of the air cavity 26 through multiple air ducts 211, and the gas is evenly discharged from the air cavity 26, so that the asci on the fruiting body 32 can be blown by the gas from multiple angles, thereby solving the problem of the ejected spores being ejected obliquely downward, reducing the risk of spores adhering to adjacent Cordyceps, and improving the spore collection efficiency.

[0044] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the present invention. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are included in the present invention.
