Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of mold detection equipment, specifically a detection device for detecting mold in food. Background Technology
[0002] Molds are a type of fungus, characterized by their well-developed mycelium and lack of large fruiting bodies. Like other fungi, they also have cell walls and survive through parasitic or saprophytic means. Some molds can transform food into toxic substances, while others may produce toxins in food, namely mycotoxins. Since the discovery of aflatoxin, the contamination of food by molds and mycotoxins has attracted increasing attention, posing a significant threat to human health. This is mainly manifested in chronic poisoning, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and mutagenicity. Therefore, food testing is a crucial step in ensuring food safety.
[0003] In the process of food testing, food samples are usually taken and then tested for various substances in the samples. However, common testing equipment cannot perform testing at the same time as sampling, which can lead to secondary contamination of the sample after sampling, resulting in inaccurate test data.
[0004] Existing solutions involve directly mounting the detection probe of the testing device inside the sampling tube. When the sampling tube is inserted into the food to be tested, the probe is simultaneously inserted into the food for detection. However, this structure is cumbersome to clean the probe and sampling tube later. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a detection device for detecting mold in food to solve the problems mentioned in the background section. Utility Model Content
[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a detection device for detecting mold in food, which solves the problem that after the sampling tube is directly inserted into the food to be tested, the probe is simultaneously inserted into the food to be tested along with the sampling tube for detection. However, this structure is cumbersome to clean the probe and sampling tube later.
[0007] (II) Technical Solution
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a detection device for detecting mold in food, comprising a first half-cylinder and a second half-cylinder. A screw is installed at the upper end of the first half-cylinder, and a lifting unit is threaded onto the screw. The lifting unit drives the sampling cylinder to move up and down to insert the sample. A through groove is opened at the upper end of the first half-cylinder, and a slot is opened on the side of the second half-cylinder facing the first half-cylinder. A first positioning groove is opened on the side of the first half-cylinder facing the second half-cylinder, and a second positioning groove is opened on the side of the second half-cylinder facing the first positioning groove. A probe is arranged between the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder, and a positioning ball is installed at the upper end of the probe. A limit bolt is installed on the side of the first half-cylinder away from the second half-cylinder, and an insertion block is provided on the limit bolt. A spring is installed at one end of the insertion block.
[0009] Preferably, the spring is sleeved with the limiting bolt, one end of the spring abuts against the insert block, and the other end of the spring is connected to the end of the limiting bolt. The insert block passes through the through groove and is inserted into the slot. Under the action of the spring, the insert block passes through the slot of the first half-cylinder and is inserted into the slot in the second half-cylinder, thereby fixing the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder and preventing the sampling tube composed of the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder from separating when the sample is inserted.
[0010] Preferably, the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder are rotatably hinged, one side of the positioning ball is fitted with the first positioning groove, and the other side of the positioning ball is fitted with the second positioning groove. When it is necessary to clean the first half-cylinder, the second half-cylinder and the probe, the insert block can be pulled out. At this time, the second half-cylinder can be flipped over and the probe can be removed. The first half-cylinder and the second plate are in an open state, which is convenient for cleaning.
[0011] Preferably, the probe protrudes from the first and second half-tubes, so that it can be handled without touching the detection part.
[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a detection device for detecting mold in food, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] By design, a probe is set between the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder. A positioning ball is installed at the upper end of the probe, and the positioning ball is clamped and limited between the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder by the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove. When the first half-cylinder and the second half-cylinder are closed, the probe is positioned. When it is necessary to clean the first half-cylinder, the second half-cylinder and the probe, the insert block can be pulled out. At this time, the second half-cylinder is flipped over and the probe can be removed. The first half-cylinder and the second plate are in an open state, which is convenient for cleaning.
