Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of constant temperature incubators for food processing, and in particular to a constant temperature incubator that is easy to store. Background Technology

[0002] A constant temperature incubator is a device used to cultivate biological samples or conduct biochemical reactions under specific temperature conditions. Food production companies need to conduct microbial testing on raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished products to ensure food safety. The constant temperature incubator provides a suitable growth temperature and environment for bacteria. For example, to detect Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in food, food samples are typically inoculated onto a culture medium and placed in a constant temperature incubator at approximately 37°C for a certain period. The growth of bacteria is then observed to determine whether the food is contaminated and the degree of contamination.

[0003] In existing technologies, constant temperature incubators typically include a chamber, a temperature control module, and a heating component. For example, patent document CN105123876A discloses a constant temperature incubator that achieves uniform temperature distribution within the chamber through heating wires and fan circulation. However, this design has the following shortcomings: First, the storage and management of the shelves are inconvenient, and excess shelves are usually placed haphazardly, resulting in wasted space and cluttered equipment; second, the air pressure regulation mechanism within the chamber is imperfect, and prolonged operation may lead to excessively high air pressure, affecting the stability and safety of the equipment. Therefore, we propose a constant temperature incubator that is easy to store. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention is a constant temperature incubator that is easy to store, designed to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies.

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

Several one-way breathable membranes are provided on one side of the installation plate.

[0009] Preferably, the power control module includes a power supply control integrator and a temperature sensor. The power supply control integrator is located on the lower side of the enclosure, and the temperature sensor is located on the inner side wall of the enclosure. A temperature controller and an LCD control panel are respectively located on the front side of the power supply control integrator.

[0010] Preferably, the warm air supply component includes a warm air blower, which is disposed on the upper side of the housing. The output end of the warm air blower is provided with a flow equalization plate, and one side of the flow equalization plate is configured to communicate with one side of the housing.

[0011] Preferably, one side of the housing is provided with a cavity structure, and a vortex heating wire plate is provided in the cavity. A disassembly plate is detachably connected to one side of the housing and the position opposite to the cavity.

[0012] Preferably, a slide rail is fitted on the front side of the housing, a sealing door is slidably connected to one side of the slide rail, and an observation window is fitted on one side of the sealing door.

[0013] In summary, this utility model offers high space utilization and convenient storage: by setting storage board components on both sides of the box, users can neatly store unused shelves inside, avoiding space waste and clutter caused by random placement of shelves. The internal partition frame effectively separates the shelves, preventing them from colliding or being damaged, thus improving storage convenience and safety.

[0016] This invention provides safe pressure relief and a long equipment lifespan: the one-way breathable membrane in the pressure relief and air guiding assembly effectively regulates the air pressure inside the chamber, preventing equipment damage or safety hazards caused by excessive air pressure. The filter plate also prevents dust or impurities from entering the air guiding channel, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0017] This utility model features a compact structure and convenient maintenance: a vortex-shaped heating wire plate is installed within the cavity structure on one side of the housing, enabling rapid heating and maintaining a stable temperature inside the housing. The design of the detachable plate makes maintenance and replacement of the heating wire plate more convenient, reducing equipment maintenance costs.

[0018] This invention features excellent sealing and facilitates observation: the sealing door is slidably connected to the chamber via a sliding rail, ensuring the chamber's airtightness and preventing heat loss. The observation window design allows users to observe the culture process inside the chamber in real time without opening the sealing door, reducing the impact of temperature fluctuations on the culture.

[0028] The warm air supply assembly 3 is located on the upper side of the chamber 1, and includes a warm air blower 31 and a flow equalization plate 32. The warm air blower 31 is controlled by the electronic control module 2, and its output end is connected to the flow equalization plate 32. One side of the flow equalization plate 32 is connected to one side of the chamber 1, which can evenly distribute the warm air generated by the warm air blower 31 into the chamber 1, ensuring that the temperature in each area of ​​the chamber is consistent and avoiding the problem of uneven temperature distribution in traditional incubators.

[0029] The inner wall of the housing 1 is provided with several insertion sockets 5, and a shelf 6 is inserted into the inner side of the insertion socket 5. The shelf 6 is used to place culture, and its number and position can be adjusted according to actual needs.
