Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control box, specifically a low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control box. Background Technology

[0002] The main function of a low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control chamber is to provide suitable environmental conditions for microbial fermentation, promote the growth of strains and the accumulation of metabolites. Temperature is a key factor affecting the growth of biological samples. Therefore, optimizing the accuracy of temperature control is the most important step in improving the incubator. Real-time monitoring and rapid adjustment of temperature can ensure the accuracy of temperature control. There are various low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control chambers on the market.

[0003] However, conventional low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control chambers are not convenient for rapid cooling inside the chamber. As a result, when fermentation is required, there may be a long fermentation waiting time. It is also not convenient to uniformly adjust the humidity of the fermenting material, which can easily lead to uneven humidity during the cultivation of fermentation strains. Furthermore, it is not convenient to fully stir the fermenting material, which may not be able to increase the contact area between gas and liquid inside the fermentation chamber when there is a large amount of fermenting material. Therefore, we propose a low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control chamber to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0028] 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.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: a low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control box, comprising a control box body 1, a first motor 2, a threaded rod 3, a fan 4, a corrugated plate 5, a first pulley 6, a belt body 7, a second pulley 8, a slider 9, a fixed trough frame 10, a spray head 11, a water pipe 12, a moving disc 13, a toothed block 14, a connecting gear 15, a stirring rod 16, a drive gear 17, and a second motor 18;

[0030] Existing low-temperature fermentation strain culture environment control chambers are not conducive to rapid cooling inside the chamber, which may result in long fermentation waiting times when the chamber is needed for fermentation. They are also not conducive to uniformly adjusting the humidity of the fermentation material, which may lead to uneven humidity during the cultivation of fermentation strains. Furthermore, they are not conducive to fully stirring the fermentation material, which may prevent the increase of the contact area between gas and liquid inside the fermentation chamber when there is a large amount of fermentation material.

[0031] The control box body 1 has a first motor 2 fixedly connected to its upper interior, and a threaded rod 3 fixedly connected to its lower interior. A fan 4 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 3. The outer left end of the fan 4 is slidably connected to the left side of the control box body 1. The fan 4 is symmetrically arranged on the outer sides of the upper and lower ends of the threaded rod 3. The outer sides of the upper ends of the threaded rod 3 are rotatably connected to the inner interiors of the upper and lower ends of the control box body 1. Corrugated plates 5 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the control box body 1.

[0032] When it is necessary to quickly reduce the temperature inside the control box 1, the first motor 2 is started, which drives the threaded rod 3 to rotate inside the control box 1. The threads on the outside of the threaded rod 3 are arranged in opposite directions. When the threaded rod 3 rotates, it drives the two fans 4 connected to the threads on the outside of the threaded rod 3 to move up or down simultaneously. At this time, the left side of the fan 4 slides up or down on the left side inside the control box 1. When the fan 4 is started, the generated air passes through the corrugated plate 5, which disrupts the path of the flowing air, which can quickly reduce the culture temperature of the fermentation strain and has strong practicality.

[0033] The control box body 1 has a first pulley 6 rotatably connected to the upper left side of the control box body 1, and a belt body 7 is tightly attached to the outer side of the first pulley 6. A second pulley 8 is tightly attached to the inner side of the right end of the belt body 7. A slider 9 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the front end of the belt body 7. The outer side of the upper end of the slider 9 is slidably connected to the inner side of the front end of the fixed slot frame 10. A spray head 11 is installed at the lower end of the slider 9. A water pipe 12 is installed on the outer side of the front end of the spray head 11. The upper end of the water pipe 12 is slotted and connected to the inner side of the upper end of the control box body 1.

[0034] When uniform humidification of the fermentation chamber is required, the electric motor fixedly connected to the upper end of the first pulley 6 is started. The transmission between the first pulley 6 and the belt body 7 drives the second pulley 8, which is tightly attached to the inner side of the right end of the belt body 7, to rotate simultaneously. When the belt body 7 moves to the left, it drives the slider 9 fixedly connected to the inner side of the front end of the belt body 7 to move to the left. At this time, the moving disk 13 fixedly connected to the inner side of the rear end of the belt body 7 moves to the right. When the belt body 7 moves to the right, it drives the slider 9 fixedly connected to the inner side of the front end of the belt body 7 to move to the right. At this time, the moving disk 13 fixedly connected to the inner side of the rear end of the belt body 7 moves to the left. The upper end of the water pipe 12 is connected to the water pump to deliver water to the inside of the spray head 11. Through the movement of the belt body 7, different positions inside the control chamber body 1 are sprayed, which can uniformly humidify the fermentation strain culture environment and accurately control the humidity environment required by the fermentation strain.

[0035] The moving disc 13 has a belt body 7 fixedly connected to the upper left and right sides. The upper end of the moving disc 13 is slidably connected to the inner rear end of the fixed slot frame 10. The lower end of the moving disc 13 is fixedly connected to a second motor 18. The lower end of the second motor 18 is fixedly connected to a drive gear 17. The outer side of the drive gear 17 is meshed with a connecting gear 15. The outer side of the connecting gear 15 is meshed with a tooth block 14. The outer side of the tooth block 14 is fixedly connected to the moving disc 13. The lower ends of both the connecting gear 15 and the drive gear 17 are fixedly connected to a stirring rod 16.

[0036] When it is necessary to thoroughly stir the materials required for fermentation, the second motor 18 is started, which drives the drive gear 17 fixedly connected to the lower end of the second motor 18 to rotate inside the upper end of the moving disk 13. At this time, the connecting gear 15 meshing with the outer side of the drive gear 17 rotates around the outer side of the drive gear 17. At the same time, the tooth blocks 14 meshing with the outer side of the upper end of the two connecting gears 15 slide continuously inside the upper end of the moving disk 13. At this time, the stirring rod 16 fixedly connected to the lower end of the connecting gear 15 and the drive gear 17 rotates simultaneously, which thoroughly stirs the materials required for fermentation. Through continuous stirring, it can ensure that the bacteria are evenly distributed and help dissipate heat to prevent the local temperature of the fermentation liquid from becoming too high.
