[0026] In this embodiment, when in use, when the personnel disassembles, cleans and replaces the culture layer plate 6, the personnel presses the square plates 12 on both sides, and the springs 14 are elastically acted upon. At this time, the springs 14 are deformed, so that the two square plates 12 are close to each other, driving the mounting block 13 to move out of the inner cavity of the mounting slot 17. When the mounting block 13 is completely moved out of the mounting slot 17, the personnel can pull the culture layer plate 6. At this time, the slider 7 will slide out of the inner cavity of the slide groove 8, so that the culture layer plate 6 can be smoothly pulled out from the inside of the incubator 1. After the culture layer plate 6 is disassembled, , personnel can clean or replace it. Through the structural design, the culture layer plate 6 can be removed to conveniently clean and disinfect the inside of the incubator thoroughly, ensuring the sterility of the culture environment, which is very important for the cultivation of microorganisms such as fungi, and can effectively avoid cross contamination and experimental errors. The cleaning and disinfection process can ensure the cleanliness of the internal environment of the incubator and improve the accuracy of the experimental results. The electronic components inside the incubator can be easily inspected and repaired, which helps to timely discover potential problems and deal with them, ensuring the stability and reliability of the incubator.
[0027] Embodiment 2, as Figure 1 - Figure 6As shown, the top of the culture layer plate 6 is respectively provided with an installation groove 19 and a structural groove 20, the inner cavity of the structural groove 20 is provided with a bidirectional screw rod 22, and both sides of the outer circle of the bidirectional screw rod 22 are provided with screw sleeves 25, and the top of the outer surface of the screw sleeve 25 is fixedly connected to the fixed splint 10 through a connecting block.
[0028] The outer surface of the sliding block 7 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the corresponding sliding groove 8 , and the outer surface of the mounting block 13 is snap-fitted to the inner cavity of the corresponding mounting groove 17 .
[0029] A non-slip pad 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed clamping plate 10 , and one side of the non-slip pad 18 is in contact with one side of the corresponding culture box 9 .
[0030] One end of the bidirectional screw rod 22 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the adjacent structural groove 20 through a rotating shaft, and the other end of the bidirectional screw rod 22 passes through the inner wall of the adjacent structural groove 20 through a shaft sleeve and extends to the inner cavity of the corresponding installation groove 19.
[0031] The inner cavity of the mounting groove 19 is provided with an anti-slip handle 21 , and one end of the anti-slip handle 21 is fixedly connected to the extended end of the corresponding bidirectional screw rod 22 .
[0032] The outer surface bottom of the screw sleeve 25 is fixedly connected to the limit block 24 , the inner cavity bottom of the structural groove 20 is provided with a limit groove 23 adapted to the limit block 24 , and the outer surface of the limit block 24 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the corresponding limit groove 23 .

[0034] In the present embodiment, when in use, a person holds the anti-skid handle 21 and rotates it to drive the bidirectional screw 22 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional screw 22 drives the two fixed splints 10 to approach each other through the two screw sleeves 25. As the fixed splints 10 approach each other, the inner anti-skid pads 18 will gradually approach and finally fit tightly against the two sides of the culture box 9. The culture box 9 can be stably clamped between the two fixed splints 10. Through the structural design, the culture layer plate 6 is clamped and fixed, so that the culture box 9 can be stably placed on the culture layer plate 6, avoiding movement or tipping due to vibration, collision or other external factors, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the culture process. This stability is crucial for microbial culture, thereby reducing the negative impact of physical disturbance on the growth and reproduction of microorganisms.
[0035] In summary
[0036] During use, when personnel disassemble and clean the culture layer plate 6, they press the square plates 12 on both sides, and under the elastic effect of the spring 14, the spring 14 is deformed, so that the two square plates 12 are close to each other, driving the installation block 13 to move out of the inner cavity of the installation slot 17. When the installation block 13 is completely removed from the installation slot 17, the personnel can pull the culture layer plate 6. At this time, the slider 7 will slide out of the inner cavity of the slide groove 8, so that the culture layer plate 6 can be smoothly pulled out from the inside of the culture box body 1. After the culture layer plate 6 is disassembled, the personnel can clean or replace it. Through the structural design, the removal of the culture layer plate 6 can conveniently clean and disinfect the inside of the incubator thoroughly to ensure the sterility of the culture environment, which is very important for the cultivation of microorganisms such as fungi, and can effectively avoid cross contamination and experimental errors. The cleaning and disinfection process can ensure the cleanliness of the internal environment of the incubator, improve the accuracy of the experimental results, and can conveniently inspect and repair the electronic components inside the incubator, which helps to timely discover potential problems and deal with them, ensuring the stability and reliability of the incubator. The culture box 9 that is not clamped and fixed may move or tip over due to vibration, collision or external factors during the culture process, which may affect the stability of the culture. This instability may interfere with the normal growth and reproduction of microorganisms and even lead to culture failure. A person holds the anti-slip handle 21 and rotates it to drive the bidirectional screw 22 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional screw 22 drives the two fixed splints 10 to approach each other through the two screw sleeves 25. As the fixed splints 10 approach each other, the anti-slip pads 18 on the inside will gradually approach and eventually fit tightly against the two sides of the culture box 9. The culture box 9 can be stably clamped between the two fixed splints 10. Through the structural design, the culture layer plate 6 is clamped and fixed, so that the culture box 9 can be stably placed on the culture layer plate 6, avoiding movement or tipping caused by vibration, collision or other external factors, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the culture process. This stability is crucial for microbial culture, thereby reducing the negative impact of physical disturbance on the growth and reproduction of microorganisms.
