[0002] The pH test of microbial culture medium refers to the process of measuring the acidity and alkalinity of the culture medium used to cultivate microorganisms. Since different microorganisms have specific requirements for the pH value of the growth environment, the appropriate pH range can ensure the normal growth, reproduction and physiological functions of microorganisms. Usually, pH meters or pH test paper are used for testing. The pH meter measures the hydrogen ion concentration through electrodes to obtain an accurate value, while the pH test paper relies on color changes to determine the approximate pH range against the colorimetric card. By testing the pH of the microbial culture medium, the pH value of the culture medium can be adjusted in time to provide a suitable growth environment for microorganisms, thereby improving the success rate of microbial culture and the accuracy of the experiment.

[0020] See also Figure 1-4 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0021] A quick-access device for testing the pH of a microbial culture medium comprises a base 1, a mounting frame 2 being fixedly mounted on the base 1, a vertical plate 3 being slidingly arranged on one side of the mounting frame 2, the top of the vertical plate 3 being provided with evenly distributed test tube ports 4, the top of the vertical plate 3 being provided with a liquid injection port 5 between adjacent test tube ports 4, a through port 6 being provided on the top of the mounting frame 2, a liquid collection tube 7 being provided above the mounting frame 2, a pump body 8 being provided on the liquid collection tube 7, a collecting box 9 being provided on the top of the mounting frame 2, the two ends of the liquid collection tube 7 being respectively opposite to the through port 6 and the collecting box 9, a lifting member 10 for driving the liquid collection tube 7 to rise and fall vertically is provided on the mounting frame 2, and a driving member for driving the vertical plate 3 to move horizontally is provided on the mounting frame 2. 13. The lifting member 10 includes an electric push rod 101 fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting frame 2, and a connecting rod 102 fixedly mounted on the end of the output shaft of the electric push rod 101. The connecting rod 102 is fixedly mounted on the liquid collection tube 7 at one end close to the liquid collection tube 7. A slide 11 is vertically provided on the top of the mounting frame 2. A limit block 12 is slidably provided on the slide 11. The side of the limit block 12 is fixedly mounted on the liquid collection tube 7. The driving member 13 includes a motor 131 fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting frame 2, a movable bar 132 provided at the bottom inner of the mounting frame 2, and a screw rod 133 rotatably provided at the bottom inner of the mounting frame 2. The screw rod 133 is threadedly connected to the movable bar 132, and the vertical plate 3 is provided on the movable bar 132.

[0022] In the rapid access device for testing the pH of microbial culture medium, the base 1 is used to support the entire device. When quickly accessing the microbial culture medium in multiple groups of test tubes, the multiple groups of test tubes are respectively inserted into the test tube openings 4 of the vertical plate 3, and clean water is injected into the liquid injection port 5;

[0023] After that, the motor 131 is started, the output shaft of the motor 131 rotates to drive the screw rod 133 to rotate, and the screw rod 133 rotates to drive the movable bar 132 to move horizontally on the installation frame 2, thereby driving the vertical plate 3 to move horizontally, so that the test tube port 4 and the test tube are directly opposite to the through port 6 and the liquid collection tube 7, and the liquid collection tube 7 is sucked and discharged through the pump body 8. The lifting member 10 is composed of an electric push rod 101 and a connecting rod 102. The electric push rod 101 is fixed to one side of the installation frame 2, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the liquid collection tube 7 through the connecting rod 102.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] In the rapid access device for testing the pH of microbial culture medium, the base 1 is used to support the entire device. When quickly accessing the microbial culture medium in multiple groups of test tubes, the multiple groups of test tubes are respectively inserted into the test tube openings 4 of the vertical plate 3, and clean water is injected into the liquid injection port 5;

[0034] After that, the motor 131 is started, the output shaft of the motor 131 rotates to drive the screw rod 133 to rotate, and the screw rod 133 rotates to drive the movable bar 132 to move horizontally on the installation frame 2, thereby driving the vertical plate 3 to move horizontally, so that the test tube port 4 and the test tube are directly opposite to the through port 6 and the liquid collection tube 7, and the liquid collection tube 7 is sucked and discharged through the pump body 8. The lifting member 10 is composed of an electric push rod 101 and a connecting rod 102. The electric push rod 101 is fixed to one side of the installation frame 2, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the liquid collection tube 7 through the connecting rod 102. When sampling is needed, the electric push rod 101 is started, pulling the connecting rod 102 and the liquid collection tube 7 vertically down along the slide 11, so that the bottom of the liquid collection tube 7 is inserted into the culture medium in the test tube in the test tube port 4. After the pump body 8 is started, the culture medium is sucked into the liquid collection tube 7 by the negative pressure, and the culture medium is discharged into the collection box 9. During this process, the limit block 12 slides on the slide 11 to ensure that the liquid collection tube 7 is lifted and lowered smoothly, thereby avoiding sampling errors caused by shaking;

[0035] After the above operations, the vertical plate 3 is moved so that the liquid injection port 5 is aligned with the through hole and the liquid collection tube 7. The liquid collection tube 7 extracts clean water to flush the culture medium remaining in the liquid collection tube 7.

[0036] By repeating the above process, the microbial culture media in multiple groups of test tubes can be quickly taken out, which not only effectively improves the sampling efficiency, but also effectively avoids the risk of liquid cross-contamination that may occur during the sampling process, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results.
