TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to biological experiment instrument technical field, concretely is a material delivery window. BACKGROUND

[0002] The delivery window is an auxiliary equipment for delivering materials in a clean room, and is mainly used for delivering small articles between clean areas, between a clean area and a non-clean area, so as to reduce the number of opening doors of the clean room, avoid impurities in external air from entering the clean room, and cause pollution to the clean room, and reduce the pollution of the clean room to the minimum.

[0003] In the prior art, the delivery window is made of a stainless steel plate into a square section cylinder, and the cavity of the cylinder forms a channel communicating inside and outside, which is used for delivering articles, and ultraviolet sterilization lamps and other sterilization facilities are arranged in the channel to disinfect and kill the delivered articles. Cabinet doors are arranged at both ends of the channel, and a mechanical interlocking device is arranged on the two cabinet doors, so that the two cabinet doors cannot be opened at the same time, thereby effectively preventing cross contamination.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned delivery window can realize clean delivery of materials between clean areas and non-clean areas, the ultraviolet sterilization lamps and other measures such as alcohol spraying for disinfecting and killing articles need to be manually controlled, and there is a phenomenon that the operator misoperates, does not disinfect and kill the delivered articles, and takes the articles into the clean area, and the delivery window of the prior art does not have intelligent hardware conditions. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0005] The utility model aims at providing a material delivery window, which solves the technical problems that the delivery window of the prior art needs to be manually controlled, misoperation exists, and intelligent hardware conditions are not provided, and intelligent modification cannot be carried out.

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a material delivery window comprises a window body, the window body comprises a cavity channel, the window body is further provided with a first cabinet door and a second cabinet door which can close the channel, a disinfecting and killing device and a negative pressure device are arranged in the cavity channel, a pressure sensor for monitoring the closing of the first cabinet door and the second cabinet door is arranged on the window body, and the pressure sensor is electrically connected with a PLC controller for controlling the opening and closing of the disinfecting and killing device and the negative pressure device.

[0007] The utility model has the advantages that:

[0008] 1. In existing technologies, the transfer window requires manual control of its disinfection device, which can lead to misoperation, such as items being taken into the clean area without being disinfected, resulting in contamination of the clean area. This application, however, incorporates a pressure sensor to detect whether the first and second cabinet doors are closed. By detecting the closed state of the cabinet doors, the PLC controller automatically controls the activation of the disinfection and negative pressure devices. Therefore, it provides the hardware foundation for the intelligentization of the transfer window. Compared with existing technologies, the PLC controller can be directly programmed to achieve automation and reduce the possibility of human error.

[0009] Furthermore, the disinfection device includes an alcohol spray nozzle and an ultraviolet germicidal lamp; the negative pressure device includes an air duct that blows air to the non-clean side; and an installation cavity is provided on the side of the cabinet body. The installation cavity houses an alcohol chamber that supplies alcohol to the alcohol spray nozzle and a fan that provides air pressure to the air duct. The installation cavity provides a sealed space for the alcohol chamber, fan, and other equipment, protecting these devices from external damage while preventing them from disturbing the air and contaminating the clean area.

[0010] Furthermore, the installation cavity is equipped with a cabinet door on the non-clean area side. This cabinet door facilitates the maintenance and material replenishment of equipment such as the alcohol storage tank and blower, and its location on the non-clean area side prevents air from flowing into the non-clean area during maintenance and material replenishment.

[0011] Furthermore, the PLC controller is also installed inside the mounting cavity, and an alcohol pump is provided inside the alcohol chamber. The PLC controller is electrically connected to the alcohol pump and the blower.

[0012] Furthermore, the air inlet of the blower is connected to a filter, which contains a filter nozzle. An alcohol pipeline connects the alcohol tank and the alcohol nozzle, and the alcohol pipeline has a bypass pipe connected to the filter nozzle. The bypass pipe is equipped with a filter solenoid valve, which is electrically connected to the PLC controller. Spraying a small amount of alcohol onto the filter can prevent the excessive growth of bacteria in the filter, which could then enter the transfer window.

[0013] Furthermore, the filter is positioned above the fan, and the filter nozzle is positioned above the filter layer. With the filter nozzle on the filter layer, alcohol is sprayed onto the upper part of the filter layer. Therefore, the filtered air is disinfected with alcohol each time, and under the influence of gravity and wind pressure, the alcohol flows downwards, resulting in better bacterial control of the filter.

[0014] Further, the window body is provided with a delivery window, the delivery window is provided with a closed groove consistent with the size of the cabinet door, and the pressure sensor is installed in the closed groove. The closed groove is provided to ensure that the cabinet door is tightly closed and no air flows when the cabinet door is closed, and the tightly closed cabinet door can ensure that the pressure sensor is more accurate.
