Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mushroom inoculation technology, and in particular to a sterile mushroom inoculation box. Background Technology
[0002] The aseptic inoculation box is a device used for inoculating bacteria, edible fungi, and other microorganisms under aseptic conditions. It mainly adopts an all-steel structure with a powder-coated exterior. The tabletop is made of melamine board or phenolic resin board. The front observation window opens at an angle of 70 degrees and has two 15 cm operating ports. It is equipped with an ultraviolet lamp.
[0003] Patent document (CN207369766U) discloses a sterile inoculation box for edible fungi. The box features a sterile fresh air system on its top, with a static pressure chamber and a Class 100 high-efficiency filter arranged below it. One side of the box has an inlet for the inoculated mushroom bags, and the other side has an outlet pipe. Inside the box, corresponding to the inlet, is a perforator with multiple pointed perforating rods at its lower end. The perforator is controlled by a foot switch. An operating hole is also provided on the side of the box. This invention provides a sterile environment for inoculating large mushroom bags such as shiitake and black fungus, flexibly addressing any problems that may arise, ensuring a high success rate, and reducing the sterilization time required for replacing mushroom bags in conventional inoculation boxes. This saves labor and time, significantly improving work efficiency.
[0004] When using the above-mentioned technology, the following technical problems were found in the existing technology: Because the opening for inserting sterile gloves into the box is relatively fixed, the range of hand operation inside the box is limited; for example, the hands must move relatively close or far apart within the box to change the position of the mushroom stick. Furthermore, after inoculating the mushroom sticks inside the sterile box, the box door needs to be opened and the mushroom sticks to be inoculated need to be reinserted. During this process, a large number of bacteria are introduced into the sterile box. Therefore, a sterile mushroom stick inoculation box is designed to provide an alternative technical solution to the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a sterile inoculation box for mushroom sticks to address the above-mentioned technical problems, in order to solve the technical problems that restrict the operation of hands inside the box due to the relatively fixed opening, and that bacteria are introduced into the box when mushroom sticks are placed inside.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A sterile inoculation box for mushroom spawn includes a base and a box body disposed on the base, and further includes:
[0008] The operating mechanism comprises an outer frame fixed to the housing and a set of movable parts located on the outer frame. The movable parts have through holes that allow movement on the outer frame, and these through holes allow the connection of sterile gloves for insertion into the housing.
[0009] The feeding mechanism includes a set of connected material-carrying parts, each of which is used to place the mushroom sticks and can be partially located inside or outside the box, and partially located inside the box at the same time.

[0011] The box body has a first opening for rotating connection of the box door, a second opening for fixing to the outer frame, and a third opening for accommodating the material loading section.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the aseptic inoculation box for mushroom sticks provided by this utility model, a second sterilization component is fixed on both sides of the third opening and connected by a support member. The support member can close the material loading part so that the second sterilization component is perpendicular to the material loading part.
[0013] Each set of the support members consists of a first substrate and a cover fixedly connected to the first substrate and capable of accommodating the second sterilization member.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the aseptic inoculation box for mushroom sticks provided by this utility model, each of the material-carrying parts consists of a sliding member, a first groove connected to the sliding member, and a pushing member disposed in the first groove and capable of being pressed down by the gravity of the mushroom sticks to form a space for accommodating multiple mushroom sticks.
[0015] The feeding mechanism also includes a limiting plate that passes through the base and is connected to a set of material-carrying sliding parts. The limiting plate is used to orient the sliding parts and the first groove to the third opening.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the aseptic inoculation box for mushroom sticks provided by this utility model, the sliding member is a second groove, and one end of the limiting plate protruding from the base is fixed to the second groove.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the aseptic inoculation box for mushroom sticks provided by this utility model, the pusher includes a pusher plate adapted to the first trough and a plurality of springs connected between the pusher plate and the first trough, the springs being used to extend and retract the pusher plate within the first trough.
[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the aseptic inoculation box for mushroom sticks provided by this utility model, a set of sliding grooves is provided on the outer frame, and a baffle is fixed between the set of sliding grooves, and a set of moving parts is located between the set of sliding grooves on both sides of the baffle.
[0019] Each of the moving parts includes a second base plate and two telescopic bodies connected between the second base plate and the baffle and the outer frame. The telescopic bodies can retract or extend along their own width direction to change the position of the second base plate between a set of slides.
[0020] The through-hole is formed on the second substrate.
[0021] It is clear without a doubt that the technical solution described above in this application can solve the technical problem that this application aims to address.
[0022] At the same time, through the above technical solutions, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0023] The present invention provides a sterile inoculation box for mushroom sticks. Through the operating mechanism, the range of operation of the hand inside the box can be further expanded by moving the hand through the through hole, so as to change the part of the mushroom stick to be controlled.

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0034] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0036] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the sterile inoculation box for mushroom sticks includes a base 1, a box body 2, an operating mechanism 3, and a feeding mechanism 4; wherein the box body 2 is fixed on the top of the base 1 and is used to create a sterile environment inside it; the operating mechanism 3 is located on the box body 2 and is used to extend into the box body 2 to make sterile contact with the mushroom sticks, so that the inoculation of the mushroom sticks can be completed in a sterile environment inside the box body 2.
[0038] The feeding mechanism 4 is installed between the base 1 and the box 2 and can move back and forth along the through direction so that part of the feeding mechanism 4 can enter or exit the box 2 as it moves. When part of the feeding mechanism 4 is outside the box 2, the mushroom sticks are placed in this part. After part of the feeding mechanism 4 is inside the box 2, the mushroom sticks are sent into the box 2. This allows for continuous inoculation of the mushroom sticks without having to frequently open the box 2, thereby improving the efficiency of batch inoculation of mushroom sticks.
[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, and for reference Figure 1 The top of the box 2 is fixed with a first sterilization element 5. The first sterilization element 5 is used to kill bacteria in the box 2 when not inoculated, so that the box 2 is in a sterile state. The first sterilization element 5 is preferably an ultraviolet germicidal lamp.
[0040] A first opening 21 is provided on the front and inclined surface of the box body 2. The first opening 21 is used to rotate and connect to the box door 6, so that the box door 6 can close the box body 2 and keep the box body 2 in a closed state to prevent external bacteria from entering. The first opening 21 can also be opened by rotating the box door 6, so as to facilitate the cleaning of impurities generated inside the box body 2 after inoculation. Furthermore, a transparent window is fixed on the box door 6, through which the inside of the box body 2 can be seen from the outside of the box body 2, so as to correctly perform the inoculation operation inside the box body 2.
[0041] A second opening 22 is provided on the front and vertical surface of the housing 2. The first opening 22 is used to connect the entire operating mechanism 3, so the second opening 21 is closed by the operating mechanism 3, and thus the hand can only be inserted into the housing 2 through the operating mechanism 3.
[0042] A third opening 23 of a certain depth (i.e., the height from bottom to top) is provided at the bottom of the box 2. Since the base 1 is shaped like a concave side, a channel is formed between the third opening 23 and the base 1. The feeding mechanism 4 is located in this channel and can move along its length in the channel to change the position of the feeding mechanism 4 inside the box 2 through the third opening 23.
[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, and for reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The feeding mechanism 4 consists of a set of connected material-carrying parts 41. The material-carrying parts 41 are used to carry uninoculated mushroom sticks, or to carry inoculated mushroom sticks when inside the box 2. As the material-carrying parts 41 move in the channel, the uninoculated mushroom sticks can be sent into the box 2 for inoculation, while the inoculated mushroom sticks move out of the box 2. The material-carrying parts 41 can carry a large number of mushroom sticks at a time, so that the box door 6 does not need to be opened frequently to put in and take out the mushroom sticks.
[0044] Each set of material-carrying parts 41 is further composed of a sliding member, a first groove 42 and a pushing member 43. Specifically, the sliding member is connected to one side of the first groove 42, allowing the sliding member to move together with the first groove 42 in the channel. As the sliding member moves a certain length in the channel, the first groove 42 is located inside the box 2 or pulled out and located outside the box 2.
[0045] The pusher 43 is located inside the first tank 42 and can form a space in the first tank 42 that can accommodate multiple mushroom sticks under the downward pressure generated by the insertion of multiple mushroom sticks. Thus, the pusher 43 can push the mushroom sticks below upward when the downward pressure is reduced after the mushroom sticks are taken out, so that there are always mushroom sticks above the first tank 42, so as to facilitate the removal of mushroom sticks in the first tank 42 from the box 2.
[0046] On both sides of the third opening 23, there are fixed second sterilization components 8 (preferably ultraviolet germicidal lamps) connected by support components 7. So when multiple mushroom sticks are placed in the first tank 42 outside the box 2 and move to the support component 7, the second sterilization components 8 on the support component 7 sterilize the mushroom sticks in the first tank 42. Finally, the sterilized mushroom sticks in the first tank 42 enter the box 2, thereby preventing the mushroom sticks from entering the box 2 from outside and bringing bacteria into the box 2.
[0047] Furthermore, the sliding component can keep the box 2 closed when the first groove 42 is inside the box 2, so as to prevent bacteria from entering the box 2;
[0048] The sliding member is further a second groove 45, and the feeding mechanism 4 also includes a limiting plate 44 that passes through both ends of the base 1 and is connected to the second groove 45 of a set of material-carrying parts 41 respectively. When the second groove 45 moves in the channel formed between the base 1 and the box 2, the second groove 45 drives the limiting plate 44 to move on the base 1, and under the limitation of the length of the limiting plate 44, it prevents the material-carrying part 41 from being completely separated from the channel.
[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, and for reference Figure 3 Each set of support members 7 is further composed of a first base plate 71 and a baffle 72. Specifically, the first base plate 71 is fixed to the side of the box 2 above the third opening 23, and a through groove adapted to the baffle 72 is opened through the middle of the first base plate 71. The second sterilization member 8 is fixed inside the baffle 72, so that when the first groove 42 is located under the first base plate 71, the second sterilization member 8 sterilizes the mushroom sticks in the first groove 42 through the through groove.
[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, and for reference Figure 3The pusher 43 further includes a pusher plate 431 and multiple springs 432. Specifically, the pusher plate 431 is used to support the mushroom sticks and is adapted to the first trough 42. The multiple springs 432 are connected between the pusher plate 431 and the first trough 42. When the number of mushroom sticks on the pusher plate 431 in the first trough 42 gradually increases, the multiple springs 432 will lower the height of the pusher plate 431 in the first trough 42 under the increase of downward pressure to accommodate multiple mushroom sticks in the first trough 42. When the number of mushroom sticks decreases, the height of the pusher plate 431 in the first trough 42 will increase to keep the mushroom sticks at the top of the first trough 42.
[0051] Based on the above, when the first tank 42 of one of the material-carrying parts 41 is filled with uninoculated mushroom sticks, and the first tank 42 is sterilized by the second sterilization element 8 and enters the box 2 together with the first tank 42 of the other material-carrying part 41, the mushroom sticks can be taken out from the first tank 42 containing the mushroom sticks in the box 2 by the operating mechanism 3 for inoculation. After inoculation, the mushroom sticks are placed into another empty first tank 42. After one batch is completed, the first tank 42 containing the inoculated mushroom sticks is pulled out of the box 2, thereby improving the efficiency of mushroom stick inoculation.
[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, Figures 1-3 The operating mechanism 3 is further composed of an outer frame 31 and a set of moving parts 32. Specifically, the outer frame 31 is fixed on the second opening 22, and the set of moving parts 32 is arranged laterally on the outer frame 31. The moving parts 32 can move back and forth along the width direction of the outer frame 31. Since the moving parts 32 allow the hand to be inserted into the box 2, the hand can move back and forth in the box 2, thereby increasing the range of hand movement in the box 2.
[0053] Furthermore, a set of sliding grooves 34 are provided on the outer frame 31, and a baffle 35 is fixed between the set of sliding grooves 34. A set of moving parts 32 are located between the set of sliding grooves 34 on both sides of the baffle 35. Each set of moving parts 32 further includes a second base plate 321 and two telescopic bodies 322 connected between the second base plate 321, the baffle 35, and the outer frame 31. The telescopic bodies 322 (such as a folding fan structure as shown in the partial enlargement in the figure) can contract or extend along their own width direction to change the position of the second base plate 321 between the set of sliding grooves 34. That is, when the second base plate 321 moves, the distance between the multiple bends of the telescopic bodies 322 decreases or increases. Based on this, the length of the telescopic bodies 322 is shortened or increased. A through hole 33 is provided on the second base plate 321 to connect sterile gloves so that the hand can be inserted into the box 2.
[0054] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the present utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. The present utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
