Abstract

[0002] Culture media typically contain abundant nutrients, such as carbon sources, nitrogen sources, inorganic salts, and vitamins, which provide favorable conditions for microbial growth. If the culture medium is not sterilized, bacteria, fungi, yeasts, and other microorganisms that may be present will rapidly multiply, consuming the nutrients in the medium and thus interfering with the growth of the target microorganism or the experimental results.
[0003] Existing sterilization equipment typically employs high-temperature sterilization. After the culture medium is sealed, it is placed in a high-temperature sterilization tank for sterilization. Then, wearing heat-resistant gloves, the culture medium is removed from the high-temperature sterilization tank. However, this operation method is risky. Although personnel wear heat-resistant gloves, there is still a risk of burns. At the same time, this type of sterilization equipment consumes a lot of energy for heating, and the cooling process requires manual operation, which is cumbersome and usually slow.

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0030] This application provides a culture medium preparation sterilization device, which solves the problems of existing sterilization equipment, such as the risk of burns even when personnel wear heat-resistant gloves, high energy consumption for heating, cumbersome operation of the cooling process, and slow cooling process.
[0031] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Example 1
[0032] This utility model discloses a culture medium preparation and sterilization device, according to the attached... Figure 1-5 As shown, it includes a device platform 1, an electromagnetic heater 2, a water-cooled box 3, a rotating shaft 4 and a support frame 41, a rotating drive unit 5, an electric push rod 6, a lifting frame 61, a limit seat 62, a sterilization seat 7 and a jacket 72.
[0033] Equipment platform 1 serves as the supporting foundation for the entire device, bearing all other components and ensuring the stability and integrity of the device.
[0034] The electromagnetic heater 2 generates heat using the principle of electromagnetic induction. When the sterilization seat 7 moves above it, it can quickly and evenly heat and sterilize the culture medium solution. Compared with traditional heating methods, electromagnetic heating has advantages such as uniform heat distribution, fast heating speed, and energy saving.
[0035] The water-cooled box 3 contains coolant. When it is necessary to cool the sterilized culture medium, it provides space for the coolant to carry away the heat from the sterilization seat 7 and the jacket 72, thus achieving rapid cooling.
[0036] The rotating shaft 4 and the support frame 41 form an integral unit, and this integral unit is rotatably connected to the equipment platform 1. By rotating the rotating shaft 4, the components on the support frame 41 are driven to rotate together, realizing the switching of the sterilization seat 7 between different positions, such as rotating from the initial position to above the electromagnetic heater 2 for heating, and then rotating to the inside of the water-cooled box 3 for cooling.
[0037] The rotary drive unit 5 includes a motor 51, a worm gear body 52, and a worm wheel body 53. The motor 51 serves as a power source, and the worm gear body 52 at its output end meshes with the worm wheel body 53 on the rotary shaft 4. When the motor 51 is working, the worm gear body 52 rotates, driving the worm wheel body 53 and the rotary shaft 4 to rotate, thereby achieving precise drive of the rotary shaft 4 and ensuring that the sterilization seat 7 can be accurately moved to the designated position.
[0038] An electric push rod 6 is mounted on a support frame 41, with its output end connected to a lifting frame 61. A limiting seat 62 is fixed to the lifting frame 61. The extension and retraction of the electric push rod 6 causes the lifting frame 61 and the limiting seat 62 to move up and down, thereby allowing the sterilization seat 7, which is engaged with the limiting seat 62, to tightly engage or disengage from the electromagnetic heater 2. For example, during heat sterilization, the electric push rod 6 pushes the lifting frame 61 and the sterilization seat 7 downwards, ensuring full contact between the sterilization seat 7 and the electromagnetic heater 2, thus ensuring effective heat transfer. When it is necessary to move the sterilization seat 7 to the water-cooled box 3 for cooling, the electric push rod 6 causes the sterilization seat 7 to rise. When the sterilization seat 7 moves above the water-cooled box 3, it then causes the sterilization seat 7 to descend, immersing it in the coolant for cooling.
[0039] The lifting frame 61 is provided with a lateral support rod 611, which is slidably connected to the support frame 41. When the lifting frame 61 moves up and down, it synchronously drives the lateral support rod 611 to move along the support frame 41, thereby providing lateral support to the lifting frame 61 and ensuring the stability of the lifting frame 61 under stress.
[0040] The inner cavity of the sterilization seat 7 is used to contain the culture medium solution. Its bottom retainer 71 engages with the retaining groove 621 on the limiting seat 62 to achieve a quick and stable connection. A jacket 72 is located on the outside of the sterilization seat 7, forming a water-cooling chamber 8 between them. When cooling is required, coolant enters the water-cooling chamber 8 from the slot 81, carrying away heat from the sterilization seat 7 and the jacket 72, achieving rapid cooling. Simultaneously, the handles 721 on both sides of the jacket 72 facilitate the operator's removal of the sterilization seat 7 after cooling, avoiding the risk of burns due to excessive temperature.
[0041] During use, the culture medium is first added to the inner cavity of the sterilization seat 7 and water is added and stirred evenly. Then, the sterilization seat 7 and the jacket 72 are lifted as a whole and aligned with the limiting seat 62. After the clamping, the rotary drive unit 5 drives the rotary shaft 4, the support frame 41, the electric push rod 6, the lifting frame 61, the limiting seat 62 and the sterilization seat 7 to rotate, so that the sterilization seat 7 moves above the electromagnetic heater 2 for heating and sterilization. The electric push rod 6 drives the lifting frame 61, the limiting seat 62 and the sterilization seat 7 to rise and fall and fit into the electromagnetic heater 2.
[0042] After the culture medium solution is heated to boiling, the sterilization seat 7 is moved into the water-cooled box 3 by the rotary drive unit 5 and the electric push rod 6. The coolant enters the water-cooled chamber 8 from the slot 81, which quickly cools the sterilization seat 7, the jacket 72 and the handle 721. This makes it easy for the operator to move the device quickly through the handle 721 without burning their hands. At the same time, it makes the sterilization seat 7 cool down quickly and easy to pick up.
