Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of probiotic cultivation technology, and in particular to a biological incubator with adjustable humidity. Background Technology

[0002] Probiotics are a class of live microorganisms that are beneficial to the health of a host (usually humans or animals), mainly bacteria and yeasts. They can promote overall health by regulating the gut microbiota, enhancing immune function, and improving the digestive system. Probiotic cultivation generally uses a biological incubator, which employs specific temperature, humidity, and oxygen concentration conditions suitable for the growth and reproduction of probiotics. However, most existing biological incubators still have problems that need to be solved.

[0003] Most existing biological incubators regulate humidity by spraying water mist. However, the nozzles in most existing biological incubators have fixed positions and orientations, resulting in a limited spray range. This can lead to some areas having excessively high humidity while others have insufficient humidity, affecting the stability of the entire incubation environment. Due to the uneven humidity, probiotics cannot obtain ideal growth conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to design a biological incubator with adjustable humidity to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an adjustable humidity biological incubator.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An adjustable humidity biological incubator includes an incubator with a first mounting groove containing two bearing seats. The bearing seats are fixedly connected to the incubator. The inner walls of the inner rings of the bearings on both bearing seats are fixedly connected to the same threaded rod. A threaded sleeve is fitted onto the threaded rod, and the threaded rod and threaded sleeve are adapted to each other. An mounting plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded sleeve. A first U-shaped seat is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate. A first fixing plate is rotatably connected to the first U-shaped seat. Two circular holes are formed on one side of the first fixing plate, and a circular rod is installed in each of the two holes. The circular rod is slidably connected to the first fixing plate. The two circular rods are fixedly connected to the same second U-shaped seat, which is rotatably connected to a second fixing plate. A roller is fitted onto a fixed shaft at the top of the second fixing plate. The roller is rotatably connected to a fixed shaft at the top of the second fixing plate. Two guide plates are provided in the first mounting groove. A guide plate is fixedly connected to the incubation box, and a guide groove is formed between the two guide plates. The roller is set in the guide groove. An atomizing nozzle is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first fixed plate. Due to the use of a movable atomizing nozzle that can swing back and forth during movement, the spraying range can be increased by moving and swinging the nozzle back and forth during movement, so that all areas in the incubation chamber can be covered by water mist. This effectively solves the problem mentioned in the background art that in most existing biological incubation boxes, the nozzle position and orientation are fixed, the spraying range is limited, and some areas may have excessively high humidity while other areas have insufficient humidity. This will affect the stability of the entire incubation environment. Due to the uneven humidity, probiotics cannot obtain ideal growth conditions. Thus, this technology effectively improves the humidity uniformity, allowing probiotics to reproduce under conditions closer to their ideal growth conditions, thereby improving the success rate of cultivation.

[0007] Preferably, a first bevel gear is fixedly connected to one side of the threaded rod, the first bevel gear is meshed with a second bevel gear, a fixed frame is provided on the top of the second bevel gear, the fixed frame is fixedly connected to the incubation box, a servo motor is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame, and the output end of the servo motor is connected to the second bevel gear through a coupling.

[0008] Preferably, both ends of the mounting plate are provided with circular grooves, and guide rods are provided in both circular grooves. The mounting plate is slidably connected to the guide rods, and the guide rods are fixedly connected to the incubation box.

[0009] Preferably, a heat dissipation hole is provided on one side of the incubator, and the heat dissipation hole is located at the position of the servo motor.

[0010] Preferably, the incubator has a first sliding groove and a second sliding groove. The first sliding groove is adapted to a first U-shaped seat, which is disposed in the first sliding groove. The second sliding groove is adapted to a second fixing plate, which is disposed in the second sliding groove. Both the first U-shaped seat and the second fixing plate are slidably connected to the incubator.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the incubator is provided with a second mounting slot, and a water tank is provided in the second mounting slot.

[0012] Preferably, a first water pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the water tank, a water pump is fixedly connected to one side of the water tank, the first water pipe is connected to the input end of the water pump, a second water pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the water pump, the second water pipe is connected to the input end of the atomizing nozzle, and a water injection pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank, the water injection pipe passing through the top of the incubator.

[0013] Preferably, the inner walls of both sides of the incubation chamber of the incubator are fixedly connected to slide rails, and the same shelf is slidably connected to the two slide rails.

[0014] Preferably, a PLC programmable controller is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the incubator, and the PLC programmable controller is electrically connected to a servo motor, a water pump and a humidity sensor via wires.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] By employing a movable atomizing nozzle that oscillates back and forth during movement, the spraying range is increased, ensuring that all areas within the cultivation chamber are covered by water mist. This effectively solves the problem presented in the background section where most existing biological cultivation chambers have fixed nozzle positions and orientations, resulting in limited spraying ranges and potentially causing some areas to have excessively high humidity while others have insufficient humidity. This affects the stability of the entire cultivation environment, and the uneven humidity prevents probiotics from obtaining ideal growth conditions. Therefore, this technology effectively improves humidity uniformity, allowing probiotics to reproduce under conditions closer to their ideal growth, thus increasing the cultivation success rate.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-7An adjustable humidity biological incubator includes an incubator 1. The incubator 1 has a first mounting groove 2, within which two bearing seats 3 are installed. The bearing seats 3 are fixedly connected to the incubator 1. The inner walls of the bearing rings on the two bearing seats 3 are fixedly connected to the same threaded rod 4. A threaded sleeve 5 is fitted onto the threaded rod 4, and the threaded rod 4 and threaded sleeve 5 are adapted to each other. An mounting plate 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded sleeve 5. A first U-shaped seat 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 6.

This will affect the stability of the entire incubation environment. Due to the uneven humidity, probiotics cannot obtain ideal growth conditions.

[0028] In this utility model, both ends of the mounting plate 6 are provided with circular grooves 21, and guide rods 22 are provided in both circular grooves 21. The mounting plate 6 is slidably connected to the guide rods 22, and the guide rods 22 are fixedly connected to the incubation box 1.

[0029] With the above structure, the mounting plate 6 will move along the guide rod 22 when it moves, ensuring the stability of the mounting plate 6 when it moves.

[0030] In this invention, a heat dissipation hole 23 is provided on one side of the incubator 1, and the heat dissipation hole 23 is located at the position of the servo motor 20.

[0031] With the above structure, the heat generated by the servo motor 20 during operation can be dissipated by setting heat dissipation holes 23.

[0032] In this invention, the incubator 1 is provided with a first sliding groove 24 and a second sliding groove 25. The first sliding groove 24 is adapted to the first U-shaped seat 7 and the first U-shaped seat 7 is disposed in the first sliding groove 24.

The first U-shaped seat 7 and the second fixing plate 12 are both slidably connected to the incubator 1.

[0033] With the above structure, the second fixed plate 12 will move along the second slide groove 25 when it moves, ensuring the stability of the second fixed plate 12 when it moves.

[0034] In this invention, the top of the incubator 1 is provided with a second mounting groove 26, and a water tank 27 is provided in the second mounting groove 26.

[0035] In this utility model, the output end of the water tank 27 is fixedly connected to a first water pipe 28, a water pump 29 is fixedly connected to one side of the water tank 27, the first water pipe 28 is connected to the input end of the water pump 29, the output end of the water pump 29 is fixedly connected to a second water pipe 30, the second water pipe 30 is connected to the input end of the atomizing nozzle 16, and a water injection pipe 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 27, the water injection pipe 31 passes through the top of the incubator 1.

[0036] In this invention, slide rails 33 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the incubation chamber of the incubator 1, and the same shelf 34 is slidably connected to the two slide rails 33. Humidity sensors 35 are provided at the top and bottom of the incubation chamber of the incubator 1, and the humidity sensors 35 are fixedly connected to the incubator 1.

[0037] In this invention, a PLC programmable controller 32 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the incubator 1. The PLC programmable controller 32 is electrically connected to the servo motor 20, the water pump 29 and the humidity sensor 35 through wires.

[0038] Working Principle: In use, place the culture dish containing probiotics on the shelf 34, close the door of the incubator 1, and connect to an external power supply. The servo motor 20 is started via the PLC programmable controller 32. The output of the servo motor 20 drives the coupling to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 18. The second bevel gear 18 drives the first bevel gear 17, which in turn drives the threaded rod 4. The threaded rod 4 then moves the threaded sleeve 5, which in turn moves the mounting plate 6 along the guide rod 22. The movement of the mounting plate 6 moves the first U-shaped seat 7, which in turn moves the first fixed plate 8. The first fixed plate 8 then moves the atomizing nozzle 16. Simultaneously, the movement of the first fixed plate 8 also moves the round rod 10, which in turn moves the second U-shaped seat 11. The second U-shaped seat 11 then moves the second fixed plate 12, which in turn moves the roller 13 within the guide groove 15. During this movement, the roller 13 continuously rises and falls. This allows the second fixed plate 12 to rise and fall. The second fixed plate 12 then drives the second U-shaped seat 11 to swing back and forth around the intersection of the first fixed plate 8 and the first U-shaped seat 7. The second U-shaped seat 11 drives the round rod 10 to swing, which in turn drives the first fixed plate 8 to swing. The reciprocating swing of the first fixed plate 8 drives the atomizing nozzle 16 to swing back and forth. At the same time, the water pump 29 is activated, which draws water from the water tank 27 and delivers it to the atomizing nozzle 16 through the first water pipe 28 and the second water pipe 30. The mist is sprayed through the atomizing nozzle 16. The atomizing nozzle 16 swings back and forth during movement, which can increase the spraying range and fill the cultivation chamber of the cultivation box 1 with mist, thereby increasing the humidity. The output end of the servo motor 20 rotates in the opposite direction, which can return the atomizing nozzle 16 to the initial position. This process is repeated to adjust the humidity. The humidity is detected by two humidity sensors 35 and the data is fed back to the PLC programmable controller 32 and displayed on the display screen of the PLC programmable controller 32. The amount of water mist sprayed is adjusted according to the humidity.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
