Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fungus cultivation, in particular to a fungus cultivation device. Background Art

[0002] At present, fungus culture devices are widely used in cultivation institutions and farm bases, especially in the cultivation of edible fungi. Compared with general vegetables, edible fungi contain higher protein, multiple amino acids and vitamins, and have high nutritional and economic values. They have developed rapidly in recent years. The current fungus culture devices basically use fungus culture media during use, and then adjust the appropriate temperature and humidity to wait for the fungi to mature.

[0003] However, some problems are still exposed in the use of the current culture device. It is not easy for workers to operate the culture device, and it is not convenient to provide different culture environments for each culture medium. When adding nutrient solution to the culture medium, the sealing cover needs to be opened, which is easy to cause contamination to the culture medium.

[0004] Furthermore, the multi-layer stacked culture device requires the staff to bend over frequently to operate, and the current culture device is not easy to adjust the different culture environments for each culture medium, resulting in relatively low culture efficiency. In view of the problems exposed during the current use, it is necessary to structurally improve and optimize a fungus culture device. Utility Model Content

The culture brick 1 used in the technical solution adopts a porous high-density fired ceramic material, which is more convenient for subsequent disinfection and sterilization.

[0028] The interior of the culture box 4 is a hollow structure, and a sealing cover 7 is provided on the top of the culture box 4. The sealing cover 7 is connected to the culture box 4 by a locking assembly. A water guide hole 10 is provided on the upper surface of the sealing cover 7, and the catheter 3 passes through the water guide hole 10. A ventilation hole 9 for ventilation is also provided on the upper surface of the sealing cover 7.

[0029] The two side surfaces of the culture box 4 are narrowed and converged inwardly to form a contraction portion 5, which is used to limit and clamp the culture bricks 1 inside the culture box 4. The bottom end of the culture box 4 is integrally formed with an extension portion 6, which is used to store excess culture fluid.

[0030] A knob 8 is also provided on the upper surface of the sealing cover 7, and a locking tongue 11 is provided at the outer edge of the bottom surface of the sealing cover 7. The locking tongue 11 is an L-shaped sheet component, and there are multiple locking tongues 11. The locking tongue 11 can be engaged with the outer edge of the top end of the culture box 4, so that the sealing cover 7 and the culture box 4 remain sealed.

[0031] The culture support assembly includes a base 16 and two groups of upright frames 18 vertically arranged on the base 16. Each group of upright frames 18 is provided with driving wheels 19 at both ends. The two driving wheels 19 are provided with second transmission belts 21. The two groups of second transmission belts 21 are connected by a connecting and lifting assembly, and the culture brick 1 is placed on the connecting and lifting assembly.

[0032] The connecting and lifting assembly includes connecting rods 12 evenly arranged on the side surface of the second transmission belt 21, the other end of the connecting rod 12 is sleeved with a bearing ring 13, the other end of the bearing ring 13 is connected with a lifting frame 14, and the culture box 4 is placed on the lifting frame 14. In this embodiment, the bearing ring 13 allows the components at both ends to maintain independent movement, so that the connecting rod 12 and the lifting frame 14 will not interfere with each other.

[0033] The culture support assembly also includes a synchronization rod 17 that passes through the two upright frames 18. The synchronization rod 17 can be driven to rotate by a driving motor. Both ends of the synchronization rod 17 are sleeved with a first transmission belt 20. The other end of each first transmission belt 20 is connected to the driving shaft of the driving wheel 19, which is used to drive the driving wheel 19 to rotate, and then synchronously drive the second transmission belt 21 to transmit. In this embodiment, the synchronization rod 17 is arranged parallel to the base 16, and both ends of the synchronization rod 17 can be sleeved with gears. The first transmission belt 20 can use a chain meshing with the gears to maintain the same transmission angular velocity.

[0034] The lifting frame 14 is a plurality of rod-shaped components arranged in parallel. A protruding limit block is also provided on the lifting frame 14. The protruding limit block cooperates with the contraction portion 5 to clamp the culture box 4. Counterweight blocks 15 are fixedly provided at both ends of the lifting frame 14. The counterweight blocks 15 are used to lower the center of gravity of the connecting lifting assembly to avoid deflection of the connecting lifting assembly. The counterweight blocks 15 adopt a triangular structure, so that the connecting lifting assembly can avoid deflection under the traction of the second transmission belt 21, thereby maintaining the stability of the connecting lifting assembly.

[0035] The working principle and use process of the utility model: when the culture device of the utility model is used, the staff can put the fungi they want to culture inside the culture medium 2, and then place the culture box 4 on the lifting frame 14. The staff injects an appropriate amount of nutrient liquid into the catheter 3 according to their own needs. The nutrient liquid seeps into the interior of the culture brick 1 and is then absorbed by the bacteria inside the culture medium 2 to complete the cultivation of the bacteria.

[0036] The culture box 4 in the present technical solution can remain sealed when combined with the sealing cover 7, so that the culture brick 1 maintains an independent culture environment in a sealed state, which is convenient for the growth of the bacteria inside it. The staff can inject liquid into the culture box 4 without opening the sealing cover 7, effectively avoiding the external environment from interfering with the culture environment inside the culture box 4.

[0037] When debugging the strains, the staff can start the drive motor, which drives the synchronization rod 17 to rotate, and then drives the first transmission belt 20 to rotate through the synchronization rod 17. When the first transmission belt 20 rotates, it drives the drive wheel 19 to rotate, and then drives the second transmission belt 21 to transmit displacement through the drive wheel 19. When the second transmission belt 21 is displaced, the height of the connecting rod 12 and the lifting frame 14 is adjusted, and then the height of the culture box 4 is synchronously adjusted. In this way, the space occupied by the fungus culture device can be effectively reduced. At the same time, there is no need for the staff to bend over to operate, which is convenient for the staff to improve work efficiency.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to be a further limitation of the present invention. All equivalent changes made using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
