Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of intestinal flora culture devices, in particular to an intestinal flora culture device. Background Art

[0002] The intestinal flora responds to the nutrients consumed by the host through various hormones, as well as to the host's condition. They can also produce compounds that send signals to the human body's systems. The cultivation and research of the intestinal flora are of great significance to the development of some drugs.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent document that discloses an intestinal flora culture device [Application No.: CN202322773456.9]. This intestinal flora culture device includes a culture box body, a cover provided on the top of the culture box body, three sets of lock buckles equidistantly arranged in an annular pattern between the culture box cover and the culture box body, a humidifier installed on the culture box cover, a thermometer and a hygrometer provided on the top of the culture box cover, three sets of support rods equidistantly connected to the top of the chassis, the tops of the three sets of support rods connected to the bottom of the culture box body, three sets of clamping rods equidistantly slidably mounted on the culture box body, each set of clamping rods connected to an upper hinge joint, three sets of lower hinge joints equidistantly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate, each set of upper hinge joints and lower hinge joints hingedly connected to a hinged strip, the inner sides of the three sets of clamping rods connected to an arc-shaped splint, the inner walls of the three sets of arc-shaped splints tightly attached to the outer wall of the culture dish.

[0004] The device disclosed in this patent can facilitate staff to observe the temperature and humidity of the culture environment, and can clamp and limit the culture dishes. However, when the device is in use, the electric push rod drives the lifting and lowering of the top rod to automatically adjust the position of the clamping rod and the arc-shaped clamping plate. However, this process has certain limitations. For culture dishes with larger diameters, when the arc-shaped clamping plate clamps such culture dishes, the height of such culture dishes placed inside the incubator is difficult to adjust, which can easily affect the sealing of the incubator lid. Therefore, the flexibility of the device when in use is relatively poor. In addition, during the process of lifting the culture dish, the stability of the tray alone is relatively poor, and the culture dish is prone to tilting or even falling during movement.
