Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of silver ear fungus production technology, and in particular to a silver ear fungus liquid spawn inoculation tank forming device. Background Technology
[0002] Compared to solid spores, liquid spores for Tremella fuciformis have advantages such as good fluidity, easy dispersion, rapid germination, and numerous mycelial growth points. This effectively solves the problems of slow germination and easy contamination during inoculation, shortening the cultivation time and facilitating industrial production. Furthermore, liquid spores are not graded and can be used as mother cultures for primary culture production or directly as cultivation stock for production.
[0003] Before inoculating liquid cultures, inoculation grooves need to be formed on the surface of the culture medium in the culture bottle to promote mycelial growth and development. However, the formation of inoculation grooves still requires manual intervention, which is costly, labor-intensive, and inefficient. The more people involved, the greater the chance of contamination, which is not conducive to complete sterility in the production process. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a convenient and practical tremella liquid spawn inoculation tank forming device with good forming effect and improved production efficiency.
[0005] This utility model is achieved by the following scheme: a silver ear liquid spawn inoculation tank forming device, including a conveying device for conveying a tray containing culture bottles and an inoculation tank forming mechanism located above the conveying device. The inoculation tank forming mechanism includes a forming frame fixed on the conveying device. The forming frame is provided with a liftable forming plate frame. Rotatable forming rods corresponding one-to-one with the culture bottles on the tray and extending downward are arranged in an array on the forming plate frame. A forming punch is fixedly connected to the lower end of the forming rod.
[0006] Furthermore, the forming punch has a rotating body structure, with a cylindrical middle part and an inverted cone shape at the bottom, which is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. The lower end of the inverted cone part has an arc-shaped blunt head structure.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper diameter of the inverted conical part of the forming punch is smaller than the lower diameter of the cylindrical part, and the upper end of the inverted conical part and the lower end of the cylindrical part are connected by a conical surface.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper diameter of the inverted conical part of the forming punch is 20~25mm, and the diameter of the cylindrical part of the forming punch is 26~32mm.
[0009] Furthermore, the upper end of the forming punch is provided with a connecting hole for inserting the forming rod, and the cylindrical part of the forming punch is provided with a threaded hole that extends to the connecting hole, and a locking screw is provided in the threaded hole.
[0010] Furthermore, the upper side of the forming plate frame is arrayed with gear disks corresponding to forming rods. The gear disks are rotatably connected to the forming plate frame. The upper end of the forming rod passes through the forming plate frame and is connected to the center of the corresponding gear disk. Adjacent gear disks mesh with each other. The forming plate frame is equipped with a drive motor, and the main shaft of the drive motor is connected to one of the gear disks.
[0011] Furthermore, the molding frame is provided with a stabilizing shelf located below the molding plate frame and capable of being raised and lowered. The molding rod passes through the stabilizing shelf and slides and rotates with the stabilizing shelf. A pair of first lifting cylinders for driving the molding plate frame to rise and fall are provided on both sides above the molding frame. Several connecting rods connect the molding plate frame and the stabilizing shelf.
