Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell culture, specifically to a cell culture fluid replenishment device. Background Technology

[0002] Cell culture refers to a method of enabling organisms to survive, grow, reproduce, and maintain their main structures and functions by simulating the in vivo environment (sterile, suitable temperature, pH, and certain nutritional conditions, etc.) outside the body. Cell culture is also called cell cloning technology, and the formal term in biology is cell culture technique. Whether for bioengineering as a whole or for biological cloning technology, cell culture is an indispensable process; cell culture itself is the large-scale cloning of cells.

[0003] Therefore, in order to maintain the normal functioning of cells, it is necessary to replenish the cells with fluid regularly. However, in actual use, the main technical problem is that traditional fluid replenishment devices often require manual replenishment at regular intervals. This often cannot effectively control the amount and time of replenishment, and also wastes a lot of manpower and reduces the efficiency of replenishment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cell culture fluid replenishment device to address the aforementioned shortcomings in the technology.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a cell culture fluid replenishment device, comprising a main body, wherein an upper isolation plate, a middle isolation plate and a lower isolation plate are fixed inside the main body from top to bottom, a stirring assembly is installed at the top of the middle isolation plate, and an intermittent fluid replenishment assembly is provided inside the main body and below the lower isolation plate;

[0006] The secondary housing is fixed to the bottom of the lower partition plate, and a limit block is provided inside the secondary housing.

[0007] Preferably, the intermittent fluid replenishment assembly includes a secondary shaft motor, which is fixed inside the main housing and located below the lower isolation plate. A secondary rotating shaft is located inside the main housing and below the lower isolation plate. The output shaft of the secondary shaft motor is connected to the secondary rotating shaft. A drive wheel is fixed to the other end of the secondary rotating shaft. A rotating rod is mounted inside the main housing and below the lower isolation plate via a bearing. A driven wheel is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating rod at its middle section. A synchronous belt is mounted on the surfaces of the drive wheel and the driven wheel. A rotating block is fixed to the surface of the rotating rod in front of the driven wheel. A support rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting block. The bottom end of the support rod extends to the lower part of the secondary housing and is fixed with a support plate. The bottom of the support plate contacts the rotating block. A spring is installed outside the support rod and below the secondary housing.

[0008] Preferably, the stirring assembly includes a main shaft motor, which is fixed to the top of the middle partition plate. A main rotating shaft is provided inside the main housing. The output shaft of the main shaft motor is connected to the main rotating shaft. The other end of the main rotating shaft extends to the top of the upper partition plate and is fixed with stirring blades.

[0009] Preferably, a funnel is fixed to the top of the main housing, an inlet valve is installed on the outside of the funnel, and the bottom end of the funnel extends into the interior of the main housing.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting pipe is fixed to the top of the middle isolation plate, a solenoid valve is installed on the outside of the connecting pipe, and both ends of the connecting pipe extend to the top of the upper isolation plate and the bottom of the middle isolation plate. A drain pipe is fixed to the outside of the main housing, and one end of the drain pipe extends into the interior of the main housing.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:

[0012] 1. When liquid needs to be added, the speed of the secondary shaft motor is adjusted according to the required amount. The secondary shaft motor is started, and the secondary shaft motor drives the secondary rotating shaft, which in turn drives the driving wheel to rotate. The driving wheel drives the synchronous belt, which in turn drives the driven wheel to rotate. The driven wheel drives the rotating rod, which in turn drives the rotating block to rotate. The rotating block causes the support plate to move up and down. The support plate drives the support rod, which in turn causes the limit block to move up and down. The limit block moves up and down at a frequency, allowing the mixed liquid to be replenished through the drain pipe. This automated replenishment improves replenishment efficiency and reduces manpower waste.

[0013] 2. By pouring the prepared replenishing material into the funnel and starting the main shaft motor, the main shaft motor drives the stirring blades to rotate, thus mixing the material. The ratio of the replenishing material can be controlled automatically, making it convenient to adjust the material ratio according to different situations. Attached Figure Description
