Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fungal inoculation devices, and in particular to a fungal inoculation device for wild fungi. Background Technology

[0002] Wild mushrooms, also known as edible mushrooms that grow in the natural environment, such as shiitake and oyster mushrooms, require careful inoculation during their cultivation. Wild mushroom inoculation involves transferring the mycelium or sclerotia of wild mushrooms onto a culture medium or substrate to promote their reproduction. To ensure the healthy growth of these fungi, purified strains are usually transferred to a specially prepared culture medium. In this process, specialized inoculation equipment is an indispensable tool, helping to ensure the accuracy of the inoculation operation and the quality of the strain growth.

[0003] In most inoculation processes, operators first punch holes in the substrate bag, then scoop out the spawn from the spawn bottle, push the spawn into the holes in the substrate bag, and finally seal the holes with a breathable tape to complete the inoculation of one substrate bag. However, this means that operators must repeat the above steps to continue inoculating the next substrate bag. The whole process is particularly inconvenient and inefficient, which not only increases the labor intensity but also affects the efficiency and quality of inoculation.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a wild fungus inoculation device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a wild mushroom inoculation device. This device achieves automatic feeding through a feeding mechanism and is easy to operate.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A wild mushroom inoculation device includes a main body. Four rotating shafts are rotatably arranged inside the main body. Gears are fixedly arranged inside each of the four rotating shafts. Points are fixedly arranged on one side of the outside of each of the four rotating shafts. Four second compression springs are fixedly arranged inside the main body. Racks are fixedly arranged on one side of each of the four second compression springs. The racks slide on one side of the inside of the main body. The racks are meshed with the four gears on opposite sides of each pair. Connecting blocks are fixedly arranged on opposite sides of each pair of racks.

[0008] The device body has a feeding mechanism located at the upper part of its interior. The feeding mechanism includes a fixed frame, and a feeding hopper is slidably arranged at the upper part of the fixed frame. A pusher block is slidably arranged inside the device body, and a connecting rope is fixedly arranged at the rear end of the pusher block.

[0009] Furthermore, the lower part of the fixed frame is fixedly installed inside the upper part of the device body, and two first springs are fixedly installed inside the feed hopper on one side, and one end of the connecting rope is fixedly installed on the other side of the first spring near the front end.

[0010] Furthermore, a first baffle is fixedly disposed between the other sides of the two first springs, and the first baffle is externally slidably disposed inside the lower end of the feed hopper.

[0011] Furthermore, two second springs are fixedly installed on one side inside the fixed frame, and a second baffle is fixedly installed between the two second springs on the other side.

[0012] Furthermore, the second baffle is externally slidably disposed inside the lower end of the fixed frame, and a fixing block is fixedly disposed at the lower end of the second baffle.

[0013] Furthermore, a first compression spring is fixedly provided on one side of the push block, and the first compression spring is fixedly provided on one side inside the main body of the device.

[0014] Furthermore, a push rod is fixedly provided on one side of the push block, a second screw is internally threaded to the push rod, a handle is fixedly provided on one side of the second screw, and the push rod is externally sleeved inside the first compression spring.

[0015] Furthermore, the upper end of the feed hopper is hinged with a hinged cover, a first screw is rotatably provided on one side of the fixed frame, the first screw is externally threaded to the inside of the feed hopper on one side, and a scale line is fixedly provided at the front end of the main body of the device.

[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This utility model proposes a wild mushroom inoculation device. When the push block slides towards the pointed end inside the device, it drives the connecting rope to move synchronously and gradually releases the pressure on the fixed block, causing the second baffle to gradually reset. The connecting rope causes the first baffle to slide inside the feed hopper, allowing the mushroom spawn inside the feed hopper to enter the fixed frame. When the inoculation is completed, the second compression spring rebounds, causing the push block to reset and the pointed end to close. At the same time, the first baffle resets. When the push block moves to the set position, it drives the second baffle to slide inside the fixed frame through the fixed block. The sliding of the second baffle compresses the second spring connected to it, causing it to contract inside the fixed frame, thereby allowing the mushroom spawn inside the fixed frame to fall into the main body of the device, preparing for the next inoculation. This not only simplifies the operation steps but also improves the inoculation efficiency.

[0018] 2. The present invention proposes a wild mushroom spawn inoculation device. When using the device, the pointed end is first inserted into the mushroom bag. Then, the pusher moves the push block inside the main body of the device via a push rod. When the push block moves to a certain position, it pushes the connecting block to slide inside the main body of the device. The sliding of the connecting block moves the rack connected to it, causing the gear meshing with it to rotate. This causes the rotating shaft to drive the pointed end to rotate, gradually opening it inside the mushroom bag, providing convenient space for spawn inoculation, improving inoculation efficiency. Moreover, the entire operation process is simple and quick, the structure is simple, and the overall cost is low. Attached Figure Description

[0025] 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.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-4 One embodiment provided by this utility model:

[0027] A wild fungus inoculation device includes a main body 3. Four rotating shafts 15 are rotatably arranged inside the main body 3. Gears 2 are fixedly arranged inside each of the four rotating shafts 15. Points 1 are fixedly arranged on one side of the exterior of each of the four rotating shafts 15. Four second compression springs 17 are fixedly arranged inside the main body 3. Racks 16 are fixedly arranged on one side of each of the four second compression springs 17. The exterior of each rack 16 slides inside the main body 3 on one side. The four racks 16 are meshed and connected to the exterior of the four gears 2 on opposite sides of each pair. Connecting blocks 14 are fixedly arranged on opposite sides of each pair of racks 16.

[0028] Specifically, when using the inoculation device, the operator first penetrates the mushroom bag with the pointed end 1 on one side of the main body 3. Then, the push rod 9 is activated, driving the push block 12 to move steadily forward inside the main body 3. During this process, the first compression spring 13 connected to the push block 12 is stretched and deformed. When the push block 12 reaches the predetermined position, it begins to contact the connecting block 14 and pushes it to slide smoothly inside the main body 3. This sliding action of the connecting block 14 drives the movement of the rack 16, which in turn stretches the second compression spring 17 and causes it to deform. At the same time, the gear 2, which is tightly meshed with the rack 16, rotates accordingly, transmitting power through the rotating shaft 15, causing the pointed end 1 to slowly unfold inside the mushroom bag, creating a spacious and ideal operating space for inoculation, ensuring a smooth and unobstructed inoculation process. The entire operation is simple and quick, without complicated operating steps, reducing the difficulty of operation and the error rate.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-3The device body 3 has a feeding mechanism 7 located at its upper end. The feeding mechanism 7 includes a fixed frame 701. A feeding hopper 4 is slidably mounted inside the fixed frame 701 at its upper end. A pusher block 12 is slidably mounted inside the device body 3. A connecting rope 702 is fixedly mounted at the rear end of the pusher block 12. The fixed frame 701 is fixedly mounted at its lower end inside the upper end of the device body 3. Two first springs 705 are fixedly mounted inside the feeding hopper 4 on one side. One end of the connecting rope 702 is fixedly mounted on the other side of the first springs 705 near the front. A first baffle 703 is fixedly mounted between the other sides of the two first springs 705. The first baffle 703 is slidably mounted outside the feeding hopper 4 at its lower end. Two second springs 706 are fixedly mounted inside the fixed frame 701 on one side. A second baffle 704 is fixedly installed on the other side of 706. The second baffle 704 is externally slidably installed inside the lower end of the fixed frame 701. A fixed block 707 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the second baffle 704. A first compression spring 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the push block 12. The first compression spring 13 is fixedly installed on one side of the device body 3. A push rod 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the push block 12. A second screw 10 is internally threaded to the push rod 9. A handle 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the second screw 10. The push rod 9 is externally sleeved inside the first compression spring 13. A hinge cover 5 is hinged to the upper end of the feed hopper 4. A first screw 6 is rotatably installed on one side of the fixed frame 701. The first screw 6 is externally threaded to the inside of the feed hopper 4. A scale line 8 is fixedly installed at the front end of the device body 3.

[0030] Specifically, during inoculation, as the pusher block 12 slides towards the tip 1, the pressure on the fixed block 707 is gradually released through the linkage of the connecting rope 702. This allows the second spring 706 to rebound and push the second baffle 704 back to its original position. The connecting rope 702 slides inside the feed hopper 4 and the fixed frame 701, and its elasticity causes the first baffle 703, connected to one end of it, to slide within the feed hopper 4. During this sliding process, the first baffle 703 compresses and presses the first spring 705 connected to it, gradually opening the channel of the feed hopper 4 and allowing the inoculum to smoothly enter the fixed frame 701. After inoculation, the second compression spring 17 rebounds, causing the pusher block 12 to return to its original position, and the tip 1 closes. Simultaneously, the first baffle 703 also gradually returns to its original position under the action of the first spring 705. When the pusher block 12 moves to a specific position, it will engage with the fixed block 707. Upon re-contact, the second baffle 704 slides within the fixed frame 701. During this process, the second spring 706 is compressed, and the inoculum within the fixed frame 701 is thus released in an orderly manner into the main body 3 of the device, fully preparing for the next inoculation task. During use, the first screw 6 can be rotated to drive the feed hopper 4 to slide upward within the fixed frame 701, thereby adjusting the distance between the feed hopper 4 and the fixed frame 701 and achieving precise control of the inoculation amount. Simultaneously, the handle 11 can be rotated to drive the second screw 10 to rotate, causing it to slide on one side inside the push rod 9, thereby adjusting the feeding distance. This increases the applicability of the device and simplifies the operation process. The scale line 8 provides a visual reference to help users more accurately control the insertion distance of the main body 3 of the device. The hinged cover 5 allows the operator to easily open and close the feed hopper 4 for adding and cleaning inoculum.

[0031] Working principle: When inoculating the fungus, the pointed part 1 on one side of the main body 3 of the device is gently inserted into the fungus bag. Then, the push rod 9 drives the push block 12 to move inside the main body 3 of the device, so that the first compression spring 13 connected to the push block 12 is stretched and deformed. When the push block 12 reaches a specific position, it will start to contact and push the connecting block 14, so that it slides inside the main body 3 of the device. The sliding of the connecting block 14 will drive the rack 16 to move, so that the second compression spring 17 is stretched and deformed, and causes the gear 2 meshing with the rack 16 to drive the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, which in turn causes the rotating shaft 15 to drive the pointed part 1 to rotate. The rotation of the pointed part 1 causes it to gradually open inside the fungus bag, ensuring the smooth progress of the inoculation process.

[0032] Secondly, when the pusher block 12 slides towards the tip 1 inside the device, it will drive the connecting rope 702 to move synchronously and gradually release the pressure on the fixed block 707, causing the second spring 706 to rebound and push the second baffle 704 to gradually reset. The connecting rope 702 will slide inside the feed hopper 4 and inside the fixed frame 701, thereby causing the first baffle 703 connected to one end of it to slide inside the feed hopper 4. The sliding of the first baffle 703 will compress the first spring 705 connected to it, causing it to gradually contract inside the feed hopper 4, causing the first baffle 703 inside the feed hopper 4 to gradually open, resulting in the feed hopper 4... The bacteria gradually enter the fixed frame 701. When the inoculation is completed, the second spring 17 rebounds, causing the push block 12 to reset and the tip 1 to close. At the same time, the first baffle 703 gradually resets. When the push block 12 moves to a certain position, it will contact the fixed block 707, and then drive the second baffle 704 to slide inside the fixed frame 701. The sliding of the second baffle 704 will squeeze the second spring 706 connected to it, causing it to contract inside the fixed frame 701. This allows the bacteria inside the fixed frame 701 to gradually fall into the device body 3, preparing for the next inoculation.
