Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of biochemical incubators, and particularly relates to a sealing structure for biochemical incubators. Background Technology
[0002] Biochemical incubators are instruments used for plant cultivation, microbial, bacterial, and fungal cultivation, breeding experiments, etc. They are widely used in scientific research institutions in the fields of medicine, health, drug testing, biological genetic engineering, agriculture, animal husbandry and fisheries. Biochemical incubators need to be kept in a relatively closed environment and maintain constant temperature and humidity.
[0003] Because biochemical incubators require periodic sampling to check the growth status of the cultures, the incubator door needs to be opened. This breaks the sealed environment inside the incubator, which can easily cause temperature and humidity imbalances and affect the subsequent growth of the cultures.
[0004] Therefore, a sealed structure for a biochemical incubator is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention provides a sealing structure for a biochemical incubator, aiming to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows: a sealing structure for a biochemical incubator includes: a biochemical incubator body; a door hinged to one outer wall of the biochemical incubator body; a glass window fixed through and to one outer wall of the door; a through hole on one outer wall of the door near the bottom of the glass window; a rubber elastic sleeve fixed to the other outer wall of the door near the through hole by adhesive; a rubber glove integrally formed on one end of the rubber elastic sleeve; an outer sealing cover fixed to one outer wall of the biochemical incubator body near the bottom of the through hole by bolts; an inner sealing cover fixed to the other outer wall of the biochemical incubator body near the outer sealing cover by bolts; a valve plate seat fixed to the outer walls of the outer and inner sealing covers respectively by bolts; an electric push rod fixed to the outer wall of the valve plate seat; a valve plate fixed to the output end of the electric push rod; an outer switch embedded and fixed to the top of the outer sealing cover; and an inner switch embedded and fixed to the outer wall of the inner sealing cover away from the door.
[0007] Preferably, there are two through holes, which are symmetrically opened on the outer side wall of the box door, and the box door and the rubber glove are both connected to the rubber elastic sleeve.
[0008] Preferably, a through groove is provided on one side of the outer wall of the biochemical incubator body near the position between the outer sealing cover and the inner sealing cover.
[0009] Preferably, a through cavity that precisely matches the valve plate is provided on one side of the inner wall of the outer sealing cover and the inner sealing cover near the valve plate seat.
[0010] Preferably, both the outer sealing cover and the inner sealing cover have a rectangular frame structure in cross-section.
[0011] Preferably, the valve plate seat has a recessed cavity inside for receiving the valve plate.
[0012] Preferably, the outer switch is electrically connected to the electric push rod outside the outer sealing cover, and the inner switch is electrically connected to the electric push rod outside the inner sealing cover.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this application have the following main advantages:
[0014] By opening and closing the outer and inner sealing covers in stages, the internal space of the biochemical incubator can be kept relatively sealed when sampling the culture inside the incubator. This prevents large-scale changes in temperature and humidity of the culture in a short period of time, ensuring the growth of the culture. Furthermore, the use of rubber gloves not only allows sampling to be performed while the biochemical incubator is in a sealed state, but also allows sampling tools to enter and exit the biochemical incubator, facilitating the sampling operation.

The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.
[0021] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0022] This utility model embodiment provides a sealing structure for a biochemical incubator, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the incubator includes a biochemical incubator body 1. A door 2 is hinged to one outer wall of the biochemical incubator body 1. A glass window 3 is embedded and fixed on the outer wall of the door 2 away from the biochemical incubator body 1. A through hole 4 is provided on the outer wall of the door 2 near the bottom of the glass window 3. A rubber elastic sleeve 5 is glued and fixed to the other outer wall of the door 2 near the horizontal side of the through hole 4. A rubber glove 6 is integrally formed on the end of the rubber elastic sleeve 5 away from the door 2. There are two through holes 4, which are symmetrically provided on the outer wall of the door 2. The door 2 and the rubber glove 6 are connected to the rubber elastic sleeve 5. An outer sealing cover 7 is fixed to the outer wall of the door 2 near the bottom of the through hole 4 by bolts. Furthermore, an inner sealing cover 8 is bolted to the outer wall of the other side of the box door 2, near the horizontal position of the outer sealing cover 7. A valve plate seat 9 is bolted to the outer wall of both the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 adjacent to the box door 2. An electric push rod 10 is bolted to the outer wall of one side of the valve plate seat 9. A valve plate 11 is fixedly connected to the electric push rod 10 through its output end. A cavity for receiving the valve plate 11 is provided inside the valve plate seat 9. An outer switch 12 is embedded and fixed to the top of the outer sealing cover 7. An inner switch 13 is embedded and fixed to the outer wall of the inner sealing cover 8 away from the box door 2. The outer switch 12 is electrically connected to the electric push rod 10 on the outside of the outer sealing cover 7, and the inner switch 13 is electrically connected to the electric push rod 10 on the outside of the inner sealing cover 8.
[0023] It should be noted that since the biochemical incubator requires periodic sampling to check the growth status of the culture, the incubator door needs to be opened. This breaks the sealed environment inside the biochemical incubator, which can easily cause temperature and humidity imbalances and affect the subsequent growth of the culture. In this embodiment, the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 are opened or closed in stages to ensure that the internal space of the biochemical incubator body 1 is in a relatively sealed state when performing culture sampling operations. This avoids large-scale changes in temperature and humidity of the culture in a short period of time, ensuring the growth of the culture. Furthermore, the use of rubber gloves 6 not only allows the biochemical incubator body 1 to be sampled in a sealed state, but also allows the sampling tools to enter and exit the biochemical incubator body 1, facilitating the sampling operation.
[0024] Specifically, in this embodiment, the solution mainly includes an outer sealing cover 7 and an inner sealing cover 8. When it is necessary to sample the culture inside the biochemical incubator body 1, the outer switch 12 is used to control the electric push rod 10 on the outside of the outer sealing cover 7 to move the valve plate 11 through its output end. The valve plate 11 is stored in the valve plate seat 9, and the outer sealing cover 7 is in the open state (the inner sealing cover 8 is in the closed state). Then, the sampling tool is placed in the space between the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8, and then the valve plate 11 on the outer sealing cover 7 is closed to achieve the sealing of the outer sealing cover 7. The sampling personnel put their palm through the through hole 4, and their palm is worn inside the rubber gloves 6 on their body. The arm is inserted into the rubber elastic sleeve 5. The electric push rod 10 on the outside of the inner sealing cover 8 is controlled by the inner switch 13 to drive the valve plate 11 to move through its output end. The valve plate 11 is retracted into the valve plate seat 9, and the inner sealing cover 8 is in the open state (the outer sealing cover 7 is in the closed state). After taking out the sampling tool, the culture in the biochemical incubator body 1 can be sampled. The sampled tool is then placed back in the space between the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8. After closing the inner sealing cover 8, the palm is pulled out of the rubber glove 6. The outer sealing cover 7 is then opened to take out the sampled tool. Finally, the outer sealing cover 7 is closed again.
[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, a through groove is provided on one side of the outer wall of the biochemical incubator body 1, near the position between the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8.
[0026] In this embodiment, the through groove allows the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 to communicate, thereby facilitating the entry and exit of the sampling tool from the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8.
[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-2As shown, a through cavity that precisely matches the valve plate 11 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 near the valve plate seat 9. The cross-section of the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 is a rectangular frame structure.
[0028] In this embodiment, the valve plate 11 can enter and exit the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 through the cavity, thereby realizing that the outer sealing cover 7 and the inner sealing cover 8 are in an open or closed state.
