Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food detection equipment, and more specifically, relates to an incubator for food detection. Background Art

[0002] Among many food safety related projects, the pollution caused by microorganisms and the various toxins they produce has received much attention. The hazards of foodborne microorganisms have always been one of the focuses of food safety. Therefore, incubators are usually used to detect microorganisms in food. Some food is placed in a culture dish, and then culture medium is added. The culture dish is then placed in an incubator for culture. A constant culture temperature is maintained, and the growth of microorganisms is observed regularly.

[0003] When using the current incubators for food testing, staff often find that many foods need to be shaken during testing so that the different types and quantities of microorganisms contained in the food are evenly distributed in the culture medium to ensure the accuracy and representativeness of the test results. Multiple culture media are usually placed in an incubator, so staff are required to shake them one by one, which makes the operation cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide an incubator for food testing.

[0005] According to the first aspect of the utility model, there is provided an incubator for food testing, comprising a box body, a cover body being rotatably connected to the box body, a heating rod being arranged in the box body, a placement plate being arranged in the box body, a shaking structure being arranged on the box body, the shaking structure mainly consisting of a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft being rotatably inserted in the box body, the rotating shaft being fixedly connected to the placement plate, a connecting rod being fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, a sliding groove being provided on the connecting rod, a sliding rod being slidably connected in the sliding groove, a turntable being fixedly connected to the slide rod, a first motor being fixedly connected to the box body, and an output shaft of the first motor being fixedly connected to the turntable.

[0006] A number of culture dishes are limited on the placement plate, the heating rod is started to heat them, and then the first motor is started. The output shaft of the first motor drives the turntable to rotate, the turntable drives the sliding rod to make a circular motion, and then drives the connecting rod to swing left and right, so that the placement plate shakes back and forth, and the test objects in the culture dishes are shaken evenly, thereby avoiding the cumbersome operation caused by the need for staff to shake the culture dishes one by one.

[0007] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, a rod is slidably connected to the box body, a slot is provided on the connecting rod, and the rod is adapted to the slot in size. When shaking is no longer needed, the rod can be slid into the slot to limit the placement plate.

[0008] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, two arc-shaped grooves are respectively provided on the inner walls of both sides of the box body, and a sliding rod is slidably connected in the arc-shaped groove, and the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the placement plate. The sliding rod slides in the arc-shaped groove in a limited position, so that the shaking process of the placement plate can be more stable.

[0009] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, a limiting structure is provided on the placement plate, and the limiting structure is mainly composed of a plurality of placement slots, and the plurality of placement slots are all arranged on the placement plate. The culture dish can be clamped in the placement slot to limit the position of the culture dish.

[0010] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, the placement plate is provided with a plurality of sliding grooves, a sliding block is slidably connected in the sliding groove, a clamping block is fixedly connected to the sliding block, and a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the clamping block. Sliding the two sliding blocks can drive the clamping block to clamp the culture dish, thereby improving the limiting effect of the culture dish.

[0011] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, a spring is fixedly connected to the sliding block, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove. When the clamping block clamps the culture dish, the spring is in a contracted state, so the rebound elastic force of the spring acts on the clamping block, making the limit more stable.

[0012] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, a cylinder is fixedly connected to the placement plate, and a pressure block is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the cylinder. After the culture dish is limited, the cylinder is started, and the piston rod of the cylinder drives the pressure block to descend, which can limit the upper part of the culture dish, so that the position of the culture dish is more stable and the culture solution is prevented from spilling out during shaking.

[0013] According to the incubator for food testing of the first embodiment of the utility model, two round rods are fixedly connected to the placement plate, and the round rods are slidably connected to the pressing block. The two round rods limit the pressing block, making the movement of the round rods more stable.

[0014] One of the above technical solutions of the utility model has at least one of the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0015] In this incubator for food testing, a shaking structure is provided to limit a number of culture dishes on a placement plate, a heating rod is started to heat them, and then a first motor is started, the output shaft of the first motor drives the turntable to rotate, the turntable drives the sliding rod to make a circular motion, and then drives the connecting rod to swing left and right, so that the placement plate shakes back and forth, and the objects to be tested in the culture dishes are shaken evenly. When shaking is no longer needed, the insertion rod can be slid into the slot to limit the placement plate, and the sliding rod can slide in the arc groove to make the shaking process of the placement plate more stable, thereby avoiding the cumbersome operation caused by the need for staff to shake the culture dishes one by one.
