[0003] When cultivating Tremella fuciformis, it is necessary to inoculate the culture medium in a culture bottle with bacterial strains to facilitate the subsequent growth of Tremella fuciformis. Tremella fuciformis bacterial strain inoculation is divided into solid inoculation and liquid inoculation. When using a culture bottle for Tremella fuciformis cultivation, an inner cover with a through hole in the middle is usually installed in the bottle mouth of the culture bottle. After the inner cover is installed, the upper surface of the culture medium is usually flush with the top surface of the inner cover or slightly lower than the inner cover. When inoculating existing liquid bacterial strains, the liquid bacterial strains are usually inoculated directly on the surface of the culture medium. This inoculation method is not conducive to the rapid entry of liquid into the culture medium and is likely to cause the liquid bacterial strains to overflow onto the inner cover, which is not conducive to the subsequent growth of the bacterial strains.

[0023] refer to Figures 1 to 6

[0024] A device for inoculating Tremella liquid spawn, comprising a frame 10, on which is provided a conveying roller mechanism 20 for horizontally conveying a culture bottle 2 and a tray 1, wherein the culture bottle is loaded with culture medium; the conveying roller mechanism is sequentially provided with a first station 11 and a second station 12 along the conveying direction, a first gear mechanism for blocking the tray is provided at the first station, a drilling mechanism 50 is provided above the first station and can be raised and lowered to form a concave hole for the culture medium in the culture bottle, a second gear mechanism is provided at the second station and can be raised and lowered to block the tray, and a bacteria injection mechanism 60 is provided above the second station and can be raised and lowered to inject liquid spawn into the concave hole of the culture medium.

[0025] In this embodiment, to better facilitate lateral transport of pallets, the transport roller mechanism includes longitudinal rollers 21 installed at intervals along the transverse direction. Each longitudinal roller is provided with a sprocket at one end, and adjacent sprockets are connected by a chain 22. A horizontal motor 24 is mounted on the frame, driving one of the sprockets via a transmission chain 23. The motor is a synchronous motor, thereby driving the longitudinal rollers to rotate synchronously.

[0026] In this embodiment, to block the pallet at the first and second stations and allow for subsequent drilling and injection, the first and second stop mechanisms each include vertically mounted cylinders 31 and 41. The upper ends of the telescopic rods of these cylinders are fixed with baffles 32 and 42 positioned between two adjacent longitudinal rollers. The baffles are driven upward by the cylinders and extend into the longitudinal rollers, blocking the pallet. When the baffles are raised, the conveyor roller mechanism stops rotating; when they are lowered, the conveyor roller mechanism resumes operation.

[0027] In this embodiment, to drill a concave hole in the culture medium, the drilling mechanism includes a base plate 51 driven by a first lifting mechanism. Sixteen intermeshing gears 52 are arranged in an array on the base plate. Each of these gears is secured with a shaft 53 that passes vertically through the base plate and is rotatably connected to it. Each shaft has a rotating head 54 fixed to its lower end. A bracket 55 is mounted on the upper side of the base plate, on which a vertical motor 56 is mounted, the output end of which is connected to the upper end of one of the shafts. Thus, the first lifting mechanism drives the base plate downward, and the rotating head rotates, forming a concave hole on the upper surface of the culture medium.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to drive the seat plate to rise and fall, the first lifting mechanism includes two pairs of guide rods 57 arranged on both sides of the seat plate and respectively passing through the seat plate vertically and slidingly cooperating with the seat plate. The lower ends of the guide rods are fixedly connected to the frame, and the upper ends of the pair of guide rods located on the same side are equipped with a fixed plate 58, and the fixed plate is equipped with a first lifting cylinder 59, and the telescopic rod of the first lifting cylinder is connected to the seat plate.

[0029] In this embodiment, in order to inject liquid bacteria into the concave holes on the culture medium in the corresponding culture bottles, the injection mechanism includes a lifting frame 61 driven by a second lifting mechanism. The upper side of the lifting frame is installed with a fixed frame 62. The upper end of the fixed frame is equipped with two distribution tanks 63, each connected to a feed tank. The liquid bacteria supplied by the feed tank has a certain hydraulic pressure. The bottom of the distribution tank is connected to 8 discharge pipes 64, and the fixed frame is equipped with an opening and closing mechanism 65 for opening and closing the discharge pipes. The lower side of the lifting frame is arranged in an array with 16 injection tubes 66 connected to the lower ends of the corresponding discharge pipes. The injection tubes vertically pass through the lifting frame and the lower ends protrude from the lifting frame.

[0030] In this embodiment, in order to drive the lifting frame to lift and lower components such as the fixed frame, the second lifting mechanism includes a second lifting cylinder 67 vertically installed on both sides of the frame. The telescopic rod of the second lifting cylinder is connected to the side of the lifting frame through a fixed block, thereby driving the lifting frame to lift and lower.

[0031] In this embodiment, in order to fix the discharge pipe and prevent the discharge pipe from shifting, the upper and lower parts of the fixing frame are respectively provided with limiting plates 68, and both sides of the fixing frame are longitudinally provided with connecting bolts 69 that pass through the limiting plates and are screwed with hand-tightening nuts. A limiting ring 70 is sleeved on the connecting bolt and is located between the fixing frame and the limiting plate. The limiting ring forms a gap 71 between the fixing frame and the limiting plate to accommodate the discharge pipe.

[0032] In this embodiment, the discharge pipe can be a flexible pipe, and the opening and closing mechanism can be a metering valve installed on the discharge pipe and fixed on the fixing frame. The rotating end is a circular end protruding from the lower end, and the structure is as follows Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the rotation of the rotating end helps to make the concave hole more complete and helps to prevent the rotating end from being contaminated with too much culture matrix. In addition, the concave hole formed on the matrix can also allow the injection tube to extend into the concave hole, avoiding the injection tube from being directly inserted into the culture medium and causing blockage.

[0033] During operation, the tray carrying the culture bottles is blocked by the first gear mechanism, the conveying roller mechanism stops running, the drilling mechanism descends and drills a concave hole on the upper surface of the culture medium, the drilling mechanism rises, and the conveying roller mechanism continues to run; the second gear mechanism rises and blocks the tray after the culture medium is drilled, the conveying roller mechanism stops running, the bacteria injection mechanism descends, the opening and closing mechanism opens, and the bacteria injection tube injects liquid bacteria into the concave hole; the second gear mechanism descends, and the conveying roller mechanism drives the tray to be output for subsequent capping.
