Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of edible fungi production technology, specifically to an edible fungi incubator. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, the edible fungi industry has experienced rapid development. With increasing public awareness of healthy eating, the market demand for edible fungi is growing due to their rich nutritional value and unique flavor. Edible fungi are not only delicious dishes but also widely used in medicine, health products, and other fields. For example, shiitake mushrooms are rich in various vitamins and minerals and have immune-boosting effects; Ganoderma lucidum (reishi mushroom) is renowned in traditional Chinese medicine and is considered to have various health and medicinal values. This expanding market demand has led to a continuous increase in the scale of edible fungi production. Traditional cultivation methods are gradually becoming insufficient to meet the requirements of large-scale, standardized production, thus creating an urgent need for specialized equipment such as edible fungi incubators.
[0003] Edible fungi to be cultivated are usually placed in an incubator. However, existing incubators require manual placement and removal of the fungal bags, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. This invention solves the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention aims to solve the technical problem of existing incubators requiring manual placement and removal of mushroom bags, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and provides an edible mushroom incubator.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an edible fungus cultivation box, comprising: a box body, the box body being equipped with an environmental regulation mechanism capable of regulating air and temperature and humidity, a fungus bag inlet being opened at one end of the top wall of the box body, multiple bearing seats 1 and bearing seats 2 being staggered and connected to opposite side walls inside the box body, the vertical distance between adjacent bearing seats 1 being greater than the diameter of the fungus bag, a rotating shaft being rotatably connected inside the bearing seat, the rotating shaft being connected to one end of a support plate, a gap being left between the other end of the support plate and the inner wall of the box body, the gap width being greater than the diameter of the fungus bag, bearing seats 2 being hinged to one end of a hydraulic cylinder, and the other end of the hydraulic cylinder being hinged to the side of the support plate.
[0006] Preferably, the upper surface of the support plate is evenly connected with multiple spacers along the rolling direction of the mushroom bag, and the distance between adjacent spacers is greater than the length of the mushroom bag.
[0007] Preferably, the gap between the bottommost support plate and the inner wall of the box is smaller than the diameter of the mushroom bag. The side wall of the box at the gap has a mushroom bag outlet. The box at both the mushroom bag inlet and outlet is connected to a slide rail, and a sealing door is slidably connected in the slide rail.
[0008] Preferably, the removable door on one side wall of the enclosure can be removed.
[0009] The hinge point of the hydraulic cylinder on the support plate is close to the bearing housing.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0011] When placing the spawn bags, the support plate is tilted by the hydraulic cylinder, and the spawn bags roll down the tilted support plate until they reach the bottom. After placing them layer by layer, the support plate is straightened and returned to its original position. Sufficient air flow space is left between each layer of spawn bags, resulting in a very good cultivation effect.
[0012] When discharging the mushroom bags, open the mushroom bag outlet and control the tilt of the support plate so that the mushroom bags slide out one by one without manual intervention. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] The rotary connection described in this device refers to the axial fixation of the bearing by mounting the bearing on the shaft, with a spring retaining ring groove provided on the shaft or shaft hole, and the rotation achieved by locking the elastic retaining ring in the retaining ring groove; the hinge connection refers to the connection method that allows movement through connecting parts such as hinges, pins, and short shafts.
[0018] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2This embodiment describes an edible fungus cultivation box, comprising: a box body 1, the box body 1 having an environmental regulation mechanism capable of adjusting air and temperature and humidity, a fungus bag inlet 2 being opened at one end of the top wall of the box body 1, multiple bearing seats 1 3 and bearing seats 2 7 being staggered and connected to opposite side walls inside the box body 1, the vertical distance between adjacent bearing seats 1 3 being greater than the diameter of the fungus bag, a rotating shaft 4 being rotatably connected inside the bearing seat 3, the rotating shaft 4 being connected to one end of a support plate 5, the other end of the support plate 5 having a gap with the inner wall of the box body 1, the gap width being greater than the diameter of the fungus bag, bearing seat 2 7 being hinged to one end of a hydraulic cylinder 6, the other end of the hydraulic cylinder 6 being hinged to the side of the support plate 5.
[0020] When placing the spawn bags, control all hydraulic cylinders 6 to retract. The hydraulic cylinders 6 drive the hinged support plates 5 to rotate the shaft 4. All support plates 5 tilt downwards, placing the spawn bags through the spawn bag inlet 2 onto the support plates 5. The spawn bags roll down the tilted support plates 5 until they reach the bottom. After placing them layer by layer, control the support plates 5 to return to their original position by the hydraulic cylinders 6. Sufficient airflow space is left between each layer of spawn bags, resulting in excellent cultivation effect. No manual intervention is required for placement. After sealing the spawn bag inlet 2, cultivation begins.
[0021] Multiple spacers 8 are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the support plate 5 along the rolling direction of the mushroom bag, with the spacing between adjacent spacers 8 being greater than the length of the mushroom bag. When placing the mushroom bag, it is placed in the space between adjacent spacers 8. The spacers 8 guide the direction of the mushroom bag's rolling, and the mushroom bags rolling along the spacers 8 are neatly arranged without wasting space.
[0022] The gap between the bottommost support plate 5 and the inner wall of the box 1 is smaller than the diameter of the mushroom bag. The side wall of the box 1 at the gap has a mushroom bag outlet 9. The box 1 at both the mushroom bag inlet 2 and the mushroom bag outlet 9 is connected to a slide rail 10. A sealing door 11 is slidably connected inside the slide rail 10.
[0023] When discharging the mushroom bags, the control sealing door 11 slides out through the slide rail 10, and the control support plate 5 tilts, so that the mushroom bags roll down one by one and are discharged through the mushroom bag outlet 9. The mushroom bag removal can be completed without manual intervention.
[0024] The removable door 12 on one side wall of the housing 1 can be removed. When the hydraulic cylinder 6 malfunctions, removing the removable door 12 facilitates maintenance and removal of the sterilization pack.
