Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of incubator technology, specifically to a water-jacketed constant temperature incubator. Background Technology

[0002] Water-jacketed incubators are mainly used for bacterial culture, breeding, fermentation, and other constant-temperature experiments. They ensure temperature uniformity and stability through water-jacketed heating, making them suitable for various constant-temperature experimental needs.

[0003] For example, a water-jacketed constant temperature incubator disclosed in patent CN218202838U, although the incubator is installed through the cooperation between the inner fixed frame and the outer frame, which can ensure water-proof performance and improve heat preservation performance, so that the internal temperature will not dissipate quickly; however, in actual use, the spacing between adjacent placement plates in the incubator is fixed. This means that when the culture dishes are stacked on the placement plates, the spacing between adjacent placement plates cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the stacking height of the culture dishes, which is not conducive to the stacking of culture dishes on the placement plates, and therefore needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a water-jacketed constant temperature incubator to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

A culture chamber with an opening facing the outer box is formed within the inner box. A door for sealing the culture chamber is hinged to one side of the outer box. Mounting beams are mounted opposite each other within the culture chamber via mounting components, with the mounting beams positioned along the height of the culture chamber. Multiple placement plates for placing culture dishes are vertically and vertically mounted between the opposing mounting beams. Fixing components for securing the placement plates are provided on the mounting beams. Multiple partitions are slidably mounted on the placement plates to separate the multiple culture dishes. Positioning components for positioning the partitions are provided on the partitions.

[0007] Furthermore, the mounting beam is provided with a T-shaped lifting groove with an upper opening along its height direction. The two sides of the placement plate are provided with lifting blocks that can enter the corresponding lifting groove for lifting. The lifting blocks are T-shaped. One side of the lifting groove is open. The side wall of the lifting groove is provided with multiple positioning holes along its height direction. The fixing component includes fixing bolts threaded on the corresponding lifting blocks. The threads of the fixing bolts extend into the corresponding positioning holes to fix the placement plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the mounting assembly includes a mounting block disposed on a side wall opposite to the culture chamber, and a mounting groove is provided on one side wall of the mounting beam for the mounting block to extend into; the mounting block is provided with a mounting hole, and a locking member is provided in the mounting beam corresponding to the mounting block, the locking member extending into the corresponding mounting hole to achieve fixed installation of the mounting beam on the mounting block.

[0009] Furthermore, the mounting beam has a cavity that connects to the mounting groove. The locking element includes a locking pin located in the cavity. An abutment plate is fitted on the locking pin located in the cavity. A spring is also provided in the cavity. The spring is used to push the abutment plate to drive the locking pin into the corresponding mounting hole. One end of the locking pin extends through the cavity and is provided with a positioning element on its extended end for keeping the locking element released from locking the mounting block.

[0010] Furthermore, the positioning component includes a drive plate located at the protruding end of the locking pin, and a positioning bolt is threaded on the drive plate. Rotating the bolt is used to disengage the locking pin from the mounting hole.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This utility model, through the adjustable height of the placement plate, allows the spacing between adjacent placement plates to be adjusted, thereby enabling the spacing between adjacent placement plates to be adjusted by the height of the culture dish stack, so as to facilitate the stacking of culture dishes on the placement plate.

[0015] This invention, through the setting of partitions, allows the placement plates to be divided into areas, thereby enabling culture dishes culturing the same type of bacteria to be placed in the same area, thus effectively avoiding contact between culture dishes culturing different types of bacteria and preventing contamination of the culture dishes.

[0030] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-8 This embodiment will be described in further detail.

[0032] Combination Figures 1-8As shown, a water-jacketed constant temperature incubator in this embodiment includes an outer box 100 and an inner box 201, with a water injection cavity 200 formed between the outer box 100 and the inner box 201; a culture chamber 400 with an opening facing the outer box 100 is formed inside the inner box 201; a door 102 for sealing the culture chamber 400 is hinged to one side of the outer box 100; mounting beams 202 are mounted opposite each other inside the culture chamber 400 via mounting components, and the mounting beams 202 are arranged along the height direction of the culture chamber 400; multiple placement plates 203 for placing culture dishes are vertically and vertically arranged between the opposing mounting beams 202; fixing components for fixing the placement plates 203 are provided on the mounting beams 202; multiple partitions 204 are slidably arranged on the placement plates 203, and the partitions 204 are used to separate the multiple culture dishes; positioning components for positioning the partitions 204 are provided on the partitions 204.

[0033] In practical use, the water-jacketed incubator in this embodiment has the same structure as the water-jacketed incubator disclosed in patent CN218202838U. Specifically, the outer casing 100 has an inlet pipe 101 and an outlet pipe 208 on opposite side walls. The water injection chamber 200 is equipped with a constant temperature heater. Water is added to the water injection chamber 200 through the inlet pipe 101 and heated by the constant temperature heater so that the water in the water injection chamber 200 can reach a certain temperature. This allows the heat from the heated water to be transferred to the inner casing 201, thereby achieving a constant temperature in the incubation chamber 400 for bacterial culture.

[0034] In actual use, through the installation components, the two installation beams 202 can be disassembled and assembled within the culture chamber 400, thereby allowing the placement plate 203 to be installed in a height-adjustable manner. This allows the spacing between adjacent placement plates 203 to be adjusted. When the placement plate 203 is adjusted to a suitable position, the fixing components can then fix the placement plate 203 in place, preventing it from being raised or lowered. This allows the culture dishes to be stacked on the placement plate 203. At the same time, the detachable installation beams 202 and the placement plate 203 can be disassembled and removed from the culture chamber 400 for cleaning, as well as for cleaning the culture chamber 400.

[0035] In actual use, when different types of bacteria are cultured in the culture chamber 400, the partition 204 can divide the placement plate 203 into areas, so that culture dishes culturing the same type of bacteria can be placed in the same area, thereby better avoiding contact between culture dishes culturing different types of bacteria and causing contamination of the culture dishes.

[0036] The partition 204 is slidable, allowing it to slide on the placement plate 203. This enables the partition 204 to adjust the size of the division area on the placement plate 203 according to the size of the culture dish, allowing culture dishes of different sizes to be placed on the same placement plate 203. Specifically, when the partition 204 slides to the appropriate position, the positioning component positions the partition 204, preventing it from moving. This avoids accidental contact with the partition 204 during culture dish placement, which could cause it to slide and change the size of the division area on the placement plate 203, thus hindering the placement of culture dishes of different sizes.

[0037] Combination Figures 2-7 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting beam 202 is provided with a T-shaped lifting groove 700 with an upper opening along its height direction. The two sides of the placement plate 203 are provided with lifting blocks 701 that can enter the corresponding lifting groove 700 for lifting. The lifting blocks 701 are T-shaped. The lifting groove 700 has an opening on one side. The side wall of the lifting groove 700 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 206 along its height direction. The fixing component includes a fixing bolt 702 threaded on the corresponding lifting block 701. The fixing bolt 702 is threaded into the corresponding positioning hole 206 to fix the placement plate 203.

[0038] In practice, when it is necessary to adjust the height of adjacent placement plates 203, the operator first holds the placement plate 203 with one hand, and then loosens the two fixing bolts 702 with the other hand to release the fixing of the lifting block 701 on the mounting beam 202, that is, to release the fixing of the placement plate 203 on the mounting beam 202. At this time, the placement plate 203 is lifted and lowered. When the placement plate 203 is raised and lowered to the appropriate position, the operator tightens the two fixing bolts 702 with the other hand so that the two fixing bolts 702 can enter the corresponding positioning holes 206 to fix the placement plate 203, thereby completing the adjustment of the distance between adjacent placement plates 203.

[0039] In actual use, the opening on one side of the lifting groove 700 allows the fixing bolt 702 to rise and fall synchronously with the lifting block 701. Specifically, the opening on one side of the lifting groove 700 faces the same direction as the opening of the inner box 201, which makes it easier for the operator to tighten the fixing bolt 702.

[0040] The upper end of the lifting groove 700 is open and there is a gap between the top of the mounting beam 202 and the top of the culture chamber 400; thus, the lifting blocks 701 on both sides of the placement plate 203 can slide into the lifting groove 700 through the upper end opening of the lifting groove 700, thereby realizing the sliding installation of the placement plate 203 between the mounting beams 202.

[0041] Specifically, the lifting groove 700 is adapted to the lifting block 701, so that the side wall of the lifting block 701 can slide against the corresponding side wall of the lifting groove 700. The lifting block 701 will not shake in the lifting groove 700, thereby preventing the placement plate 203 from shaking, and thus enabling the placement plate 203 to be raised and lowered horizontally.

[0042] Combination Figures 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the mounting assembly includes a mounting block 401 disposed on a side wall opposite to the culture chamber 400. A mounting groove 600 for the mounting block 401 to extend into is provided on one side wall of the mounting beam 202. The mounting block 401 is provided with a mounting hole 402. A locking member is provided in the mounting beam 202 corresponding to the mounting block 401. The locking member extends into the corresponding mounting hole 402 to achieve the fixed installation of the mounting beam 202 on the mounting block 401.

[0043] In actual use, the mounting groove 600 on the mounting beam 202 is aligned with the mounting block 401, and the mounting block 401 is inserted into the mounting groove 600. At this time, the locking member can be inserted into the mounting hole 402 by setting the locking member, thereby fixing the mounting block 401 and fixing the mounting beam 202 on the mounting block 401, so that the mounting beam 202 can be installed in the culture chamber 400.

[0044] In actual use, the mounting block 401 is adapted to the mounting groove 600, so that the side wall of the mounting block 401 can slide against the corresponding side wall of the mounting groove 600, thereby preventing the mounting block 401 from shaking in the mounting groove 600, preventing the mounting beam 202 from shaking on the mounting block 401, thus allowing the mounting beam 202 to be better fixed, and allowing the placement plate 203 to be better installed.

[0045] In this embodiment, the mounting beam 202 has a cavity that communicates with the mounting groove 600. The locking member includes a locking pin 601 located in the cavity. An abutment plate 602 is sleeved on the locking pin 601 located in the cavity. A spring 603 is also provided in the cavity. The spring 603 is used to push the abutment plate to drive the locking pin 601 to extend into the corresponding mounting hole 402. One end of the locking pin 601 extends through the cavity and is provided with a positioning member on its extended end for keeping the locking member released from locking the mounting block 401.

[0046] In actual use, the mounting block 401 is inserted into the mounting groove 600. At this time, the mounting hole 402 is aligned with the opening of the cavity. Under the action of the spring 603, the spring 603 can push the abutment plate 602 to move the locking pin 601, so that the locking pin 601 can extend into the mounting hole 402 to lock the mounting block 401. When it is necessary to release the locking of the mounting block 401, the locking pin 601 is pulled outward, so that the locking pin 601 can move the abutment plate 602 to compress the spring 603, so that the locking pin 601 can disengage from the mounting hole 402 and retract into the cavity. At this time, the positioning member can keep the locking member in the state of releasing the locking of the mounting block 401, so that the operator can take out the mounting beam 202 from the culture chamber 400.

[0047] The locking pin 601 is adapted to the mounting hole 402, so that the locking pin 601 can slide and fit against the side wall corresponding to the mounting hole 402, so that the locking pin 601 will not shake in the mounting hole 402, and thus the mounting beam 202 will not shake.

[0048] Combination Figures 5-7 As shown, in this embodiment, the positioning component includes a drive plate 207 located at the protruding end of the locking pin 601. The drive plate 207 is threaded with a positioning bolt 604. Rotating the bolt is used to disengage the locking pin 601 from the mounting hole 402.

[0049] In actual use, the drive plate 207 is pulled outward, causing it to drive the locking pin 601 to disengage from the mounting hole 402 and retract into the cavity. At this time, the positioning bolt 604 is tightened, allowing it to move towards the mounting beam 202. When one end of the positioning bolt 604 abuts against the corresponding side wall of the mounting beam 202, it maintains the locking pin 601 in the state of disengaging from the mounting hole 402 and retracting into the cavity. Tightening the positioning bolt 604 resets it, and under the action of the spring 603, the locking pin 601 resets, locking the mounting block 401.

[0050] Combination Figures 7-8 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper side of the placement plate 203 is provided with a sliding groove 703 along its length, and the lower side of the partition plate 204 is provided with a slider 704 that slides into the corresponding sliding groove 703; both sides of the placement plate 203 are provided with slots 300 that communicate with the corresponding sliding grooves 703; the opposing sliding grooves 703 are connected by a connecting groove 205; the positioning component includes a positioning screw 301, which passes through the slider 704, and both ends of the positioning screw 301 extend out of the corresponding slots 300, with a locking nut 302 threaded on its extended end.

[0051] In actual use, the slider 704 is able to slide within the groove 703 by setting the groove 703 and the slider 704. Specifically, the slider 704 and the groove 703 are adapted to each other so that the side wall of the slider 704 can slide against the corresponding side wall of the groove 703, so that the slider 704 will not wobble within the groove 703, thus making the sliding of the partition 204 relatively smooth.

[0052] In actual use, when adjusting the size of the area divided on the placement plate 203, one of the locking nuts 302 is loosened to release the fixation of the partition 204, allowing the partition 204 to slide on the placement plate 203. When the partition 204 slides to the appropriate position, one of the locking nuts 302 is tightened, so that the locking nut 302 can press against the corresponding side wall of the placement plate 203, thus fixing the partition 204.

[0053] The positioning screw 301 can pass through the placement plate 203 through the connecting groove 205 and the slot 300. Since the connecting groove 205 and the slot 300 are parallel to the sliding groove 703, the positioning screw 301 can slide with the partition 204.

[0054] In practical use, when installing the mounting beam 202 and the placement plate 203, the mounting block 401 is inserted into the mounting groove 600. At this time, the spring 603 can push the abutment plate 602 to move the locking pin 601, allowing the locking pin 601 to extend into the mounting hole 402 to lock the mounting block 401. Then, the lifting blocks 701 on both sides of the placement plate 203 can slide into the lifting groove 700 through the upper opening of the lifting groove 700, realizing the sliding installation of the placement plate 203 between the mounting beams 202. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between adjacent placement plates 203, the operator needs to first support the placement plate 203 with one hand, and then loosen the two fixing bolts 702 with the other hand, so that the two fixing bolts 702 are disengaged from the corresponding positioning holes 206. At this time, by lifting the placement plate 203... The system is raised and lowered. When the placement plate 203 is raised to a suitable position, the operator tightens two fixing bolts 702 with one hand, allowing them to enter the corresponding positioning holes 206 and thus fixing the placement plate 203, thereby adjusting the spacing between adjacent placement plates 203. When it is necessary to adjust the size of the partition 204's division area on the placement plate 203, one of the locking nuts 302 is loosened to release the fixation of the partition 204, allowing it to slide on the placement plate 203. When the partition 204 slides to a suitable position, one of the locking nuts 302 is tightened, causing it to press against the corresponding side wall of the placement plate 203, thus fixing the partition 204 and adjusting the size of the partition 204's division area on the placement plate 203.

[0055] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the patent of the present utility model.
