Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of Cordyceps militaris cultivation equipment, specifically to a mobile biological culture device for cultivating Cordyceps militaris with controlled water, temperature, and light. Background Technology

[0002] Cordyceps militaris belongs to the Ascomycota phylum and Cordyceps family. As a fungus used for both food and medicine, it has good edible and medicinal value. Throughout its growth process, Cordyceps militaris has strict requirements for temperature, humidity, air, and light. Under natural conditions, the yield is low and the quality is poor, which cannot meet people's daily needs. Currently, most of the cultivation is carried out in a simple production room, where temperature, humidity, air, and light cannot be precisely controlled, thus affecting its yield and quality. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing a mobile biological culture device for cultivating Cordyceps militaris with controlled water, temperature, and light.

[0004] This utility model includes a movable box with openings on both the front and rear sides.

Furthermore, if terms such as "first" or "second" appear in the description of this utility model, they are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0023] As shown in the attached figure, the present invention includes a movable box 1, which has openings on both the front and rear sides. A front door 2 is provided on the front side of the movable box 1, and a rear cover 3 is provided on the rear side of the movable box 1. A set of temperature-regulating shelves 5 is provided inside the movable box 1 from top to bottom. A lighting lamp 6 is provided at the bottom of the temperature-regulating shelves 5. A set of spray pipes 7 extending into the upper part of the corresponding temperature-regulating shelves 5 is provided on the rear cover 3.

[0024] The Cordyceps militaris cultivation tray is placed on the temperature-regulating shelf 5 for cultivation. Cordyceps militaris has different optimal growth temperatures at different growth and development stages. For example, the growth temperature of mycelium and fruiting body is 18℃-23℃. A larger temperature difference is required for primordia differentiation. Generally, the temperature difference should be maintained at 5℃-10℃. The temperature-regulating shelf 5 is used to regulate the temperature inside the entire mobile box 1. No light is required during the spore germination and mycelial growth stages. The entire mobile box 1 is kept in a dark environment. After the front door 2 is closed, the entire mobile box 1 is in a closed and dark state. The lighting lamp 6 is used to provide illumination during the reproductive growth stage, so that it receives diffused light to promote its growth. The spray pipe 7 sprays according to the required growth humidity to ensure that the humidity inside the mobile box 1 is suitable for the growth of Cordyceps militaris.

[0025] Furthermore, the bottom of the mobile box 1 is equipped with a set of wheels. The mobile box 1, the front door 2 and the rear cover 3 are all double-layer hollow structures, and the hollow structure is filled with a layer of heat-insulating material.

[0026] The mobile box 1 is equipped with wheels for easy and quick movement and handling. The double-layer hollow structure, combined with the insulation material layer, can effectively maintain the temperature stability inside the mobile box 1 and reduce the impact of ambient temperature changes caused by the temperature difference between day and night on the inside of the mobile box 1. The insulation material is aluminum silicate insulation material.

[0027] Preferably, the rear cover 3 is hinged to the mobile housing 1 and locked in place by a latch. The rear cover 3 can be opened to facilitate maintenance of the equipment on the rear cover 3 and the equipment inside the mobile housing 1.

[0028] Preferably, the temperature-regulating shelf 5 has a hollow structure, and two adjacent temperature-regulating shelves 5 are connected to each other by a connecting pipe 9 to form a whole. The top and bottom temperature-regulating shelves 5 are respectively provided with a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe.

[0029] Each temperature-regulating shelf 5 is connected from top to bottom and front to back, forming a single unit. The temperature-regulating medium can flow within the temperature-regulating shelf 5 to control the temperature inside the mobile box 1. Commonly used media are water and air. The medium is formed by heating or cooling water or air, and then controlled by heat exchange through the temperature-regulating shelf 5.

[0030] Furthermore, reflective films 10 are provided on the inner sides of the movable box 1, the front door 2, the rear cover 3, and the connecting pipe 9, as well as the bottom of the temperature regulating shelf 5.

[0031] During the growth stage that requires light, the reflective film 10 can further reflect the light, making the Cordyceps militaris in the moving box 1 receive light more evenly.

[0032] Furthermore, a humidifier 12 is provided on the rear cover 3, and the spray pipes 7 are respectively connected to the air outlet of the humidifier 12. A set of air holes 13 is provided on the rear cover 3, and a breathable membrane is provided in the air holes 13.

[0033] When the humidifier 12 is turned on according to the required growth humidity, its water mist is sprayed out from each spray pipe 7 to humidify the cultivation space in each layer of temperature-regulating shelf 5. The vents 13 are used to ventilate the mobile box 1. The breathable membrane can both allow air to pass through and isolate the mobile box 1 from the outside world, preventing the external environment from affecting the production of Cordyceps militaris in the mobile box 1. In this case, the breathable membrane is black to block light. There are two vents 13 on each layer of temperature-regulating shelf 5, located at both ends of the temperature-regulating shelf 5.

[0034] Furthermore, a temperature and humidity sensor 15 is installed inside the front door 2, and a solenoid valve 16 is installed on the water inlet pipe of the temperature-regulating shelf 5. A control panel 17 is installed on the front door 2, electrically connected to the temperature and humidity sensor 15, and controls the opening and closing of the lighting lamp 6, humidifier 12, and solenoid valve 16. The temperature and humidity sensor 15 monitors the temperature and humidity inside the mobile enclosure 1, transmitting the data in real time to the chip on the control panel 17 and displaying it on the screen of the control panel 17. Based on the detected data, the operator controls the opening and closing of the humidifier 12 and the solenoid valve 16 to regulate the temperature and humidity inside the mobile enclosure 1. The lighting lamp 6 is electrically connected to the control panel 17, allowing for manual or automatic control of its operation via the control panel 17.

[0035] Preferably, the lighting lamp 6 is a flat panel lamp, and a frosted film layer is adhered to the bottom of the flat panel lamp.

[0036] The frosted film layer can further disperse light, forming scattered light, which is conducive to mycelial growth.
