Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mosquito egg incubation technology, and specifically relates to an automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation. Background Technology
[0002] According to WHO data, mosquito-borne diseases cause hundreds of thousands of laboratory-confirmed deaths every year. This is mainly because mosquitoes carry a variety of viruses that are invisible to the naked eye and can cause diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and Zika virus, leading to high fever, headaches, and even death.

This makes it difficult to guarantee stable and suitable temperature and humidity conditions, limiting the hatching rate. Furthermore, the incubation process, including egg transfer, packaging, and subsequent management, suffers from low automation, demanding significant manual intervention and further increasing labor costs and operational errors. Therefore, designing an automated quantitative mosquito egg incubation workstation to address these issues is essential. Utility Model Content

[0060] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.
[0061] like Figure 3As shown, an automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation according to an embodiment of this utility model includes a workbench 1, a feeding component 2, a conveying component 3, a dispensing component 4, a transport component 5, a shaking component 6, an environmental incubation chamber 7, a lifting component 8, and a pushing component 9. The feeding component 2 is located on the front left side of the workbench 1. The conveying component 3 is located on the left side of the workbench 1 and behind the feeding component 2; the feeding component 2 is used to transfer test tubes to the conveying component 3. The dispensing component 4 is located on the workbench 1 and is used to quantitatively place mosquito eggs into the test tubes. The transport component 5 is located on the workbench 1 and is used to stack the test tubes onto a tray; the conveying component 3 is used to drive the test tubes closer to the transport component 5. The shaking component 6 is located on the workbench 1 and to the right of the dispensing component 4; it is used to place the tray and shake the test tubes. The environmental incubation chamber 7 is located at the lower right side of the workbench 1 and is used to store the tray and the test tubes. The lifting assembly 8 is connected to the workbench 1 and is used to drive the tray and the test tube into the environmental incubation chamber 7. The pushing assembly 9 is located at the right end of the workbench 1 and is used to drive the tray to move between the lifting assembly 8 and the rocking assembly 6.
[0062] Specifically, the feeding component 2 conveys the test tubes to the conveying component 3, which in turn moves the test tubes closer to the handling component 5. The dispensing component 4 then places mosquito eggs into the test tubes. The handling component 5 then places multiple test tubes sequentially onto a tray. Once the tray is full, the shaking component 6, which holds the tray, shakes the test tubes to mix them evenly.
[0063] The pusher assembly 9 is then used to drive the tray full of test tubes onto the lifting assembly 8. The lifting assembly 8 carries the tray full of test tubes into the environmental incubation chamber 7 and carries the empty tray into the pusher assembly 9. The pusher assembly 9 then drives the empty tray onto the shaking assembly 6.
[0064] Therefore, by using the feeding component 2, conveying component 3, and handling component 5 to transport test tubes, and the dispensing component 4 to place mosquito eggs, and then using the pushing component 9 and lifting component 8 to transport the tray back and forth between the shaking component 6 and the environmental incubation chamber 7, the quantitative placement and incubation of mosquito eggs can be automated, reducing labor costs and operational errors. Secondly, by setting up the shaking component 6 to shake the test tubes evenly, mosquito eggs can be prevented from settling at the bottom.
[0065] In this embodiment, the conveying assembly 3 includes a mounting plate, conveying synchronous pulleys, a conveying synchronous belt, partitions, and a conveying motor. The lower end of the mounting plate is connected to the workbench 1 via four columns. Conveying synchronous pulleys are rotatably connected to both sides of the mounting plate, with their axial direction facing up and down. A conveying synchronous belt is fitted onto each of the two conveying synchronous pulleys, and multiple evenly distributed partitions are spaced along the conveying synchronous belt. Test tubes are placed between adjacent partitions. The conveying motor is connected to the lower left side of the mounting plate and is drive-connected to the left conveying synchronous pulley.
[0066] The dispensing assembly 4 includes a dispensing bracket, a storage funnel, a metering adjustment rod, a stepper motor, and a DC brushless vibration motor. The dispensing bracket is located behind the mounting plate, and its lower end is connected to the worktable 1. The storage funnel is connected to the upper end of the dispensing bracket and is used to hold mosquito eggs. The metering adjustment rod is connected to the lower end of the storage funnel and is used to control the dispensing amount. The stepper motor is connected to the dispensing bracket and is also connected to the metering adjustment rod. The DC brushless vibration motor is connected to the upper end of the dispensing bracket to prevent material from accumulating and jamming.
[0067] To facilitate sealing of the test tubes. For example... Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the feeding assembly 2 includes a test tube feeding mechanism 10 and a test tube cap feeding mechanism 11. The test tube feeding mechanism 10 is connected to the workbench 1 and is used to shape and sort the test tubes and convey them to the conveying assembly 3. The test tube cap feeding mechanism 11 is connected to the workbench 1 and is located to the right of the test tube feeding mechanism 10. The test tube cap feeding mechanism 11 is used to shape and sort the test tube caps and convey them to the test tube openings aligned with the test tubes.
[0068] Specifically, both the test tube feeding mechanism 10 and the test tube cap feeding mechanism 11 include a vibrating plate, with the output component directly below the output end of the vibrating plate. The test tube feeding mechanism 10 conveys the test tubes from the output end to the conveying component 3. The conveying component 3 moves the test tubes forward to directly below the output end of the test tube cap feeding mechanism 11. The test tube cap feeding mechanism 11 shapes and sorts the test tube caps and conveys them above the conveying component 3, aligning them with the test tube openings. As the test tubes move over, the caps loosely cover them, facilitating a tight seal.
[0069] To tighten the test tube cap. For example... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, optionally, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation further includes a capping assembly 12, which is located on the right side of the test tube cap feeding mechanism 11 and is used to tighten the test tube cap.
[0070] Specifically, the capping assembly 12 includes a capping bracket, a rotating module, and grippers. The lower end of the capping bracket is connected to the worktable 1, and the rotating module is connected to the upper end of the capping bracket. The rotating module is also connected to the grippers via a transmission mechanism. The rotating module can be a motorized device. The grippers can be electrically or pneumatically operated. The grippers hold the test tube caps, and the rotating module drives the grippers to rotate, thereby tightening the test tube caps.
[0071] Therefore, by tightening the test tube cap using the capping assembly 12, the stability of the connection between the test tube cap and the test tube can be ensured, thus facilitating the sealing of the test tube.
[0072] To ensure the mosquito eggs hatch properly. For example... Figure 4 As shown, optionally, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation further includes a spray needle 13, which is connected to the capping assembly 12 and is used to inject nutrient solution into the test tube.
[0073] Specifically, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative hatching workstation also includes a spraying support, a hose, and a nutrient solution storage tank 36. One end of the spraying support is connected to a capping support, and the other end extends above the test tube on the synchronous belt. A spraying needle 13 is connected to the other end of the spraying support. Furthermore, the spraying needle 13 is connected to the nutrient solution storage tank 36 via a hose. The nutrient solution in the storage tank 36 can be transported to the spraying needle 13 through the hose, and the spraying needle 13 is used to inject the nutrient solution into the test tube.
[0074] Therefore, by setting the spray needle 13, the nutrient solution can be automatically controlled to be introduced into the test tube, which is conducive to further realizing the automatic hatching of mosquito eggs.
[0075] To facilitate handling the test tubes, shake them thoroughly. For example... Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the transport assembly 5 includes a transport bracket 14, a horizontal drive mechanism 15, an up-down drive mechanism 16, and a suction cup 17. The lower end of the transport bracket 14 is connected to the worktable 1. The horizontal drive mechanism 15 is connected to the transport bracket 14 and is driven by the up-down drive mechanism 16 to drive the up-down drive mechanism 16 to move horizontally. The up-down drive mechanism 16 is driven by the suction cup 17 to drive the suction cup 17 to move up and down. The suction cup 17 is used to adsorb the test tube cap.
[0076] Specifically, the horizontal drive mechanism 15 includes a transport ball screw motor, a first ball nut, and a transport slider. The transport ball screw motor is connected to the upper right side of the transport bracket 14, the first ball nut is sleeved on the shaft of the transport ball screw motor, and the transport slider is connected to the first ball nut.
[0077] The up-and-down drive mechanism 16 includes a connecting bracket, a transport timing pulley, a transport timing belt, and a mounting plate. The connecting bracket is connected to the transport slider, and both ends of the connecting bracket are rotatably connected to the transport timing pulleys. The transport timing belt is fitted onto the two transport timing pulleys. A transport motor is connected to the upper end of the connecting bracket, and the transport motor is driven by the transport timing pulleys. The mounting plate is connected to the transport timing belt, and a suction cup 17 is connected to the mounting plate. A vacuum pump is connected to the connecting bracket, and the vacuum pump is connected to the suction cup 17 through an air pipe.
[0078] Therefore, the horizontal drive mechanism 15 and the vertical drive mechanism 16 are used to drive the suction cup 17 to move left and right and up and down, so as to transfer the test tube from the conveyor belt on the left to the tray on the right. Secondly, when the suction cup 17 is used to pick up the test tube cap, the vertical drive mechanism 16 can be used to drive the test tube to move up and down, so as to shake the test tube up and down and prevent mosquito eggs inside the test tube from accumulating at the bottom.
[0079] To cause the test tube to be shaken horizontally. For example... Figure 6 As shown, optionally, the rocking assembly 6 includes a linear module 18 and a rocking tray 19. The linear module 18 is connected to the worktable 1. The lower end of the rocking tray 19 is connected to the linear module 18 for transmission. The linear module 18 is used to drive the rocking tray 19 to move in the back-and-forth direction. The rocking tray 19 is used to place the tray.
[0080] Specifically, the linear module 18 is connected to the middle of the right end of the worktable 1. Two pusher components 9 are provided, located on the front and rear sides of the worktable 1 respectively, with the linear module 18 positioned between the two pusher components 9. Furthermore, the pusher component 9 includes a pusher bracket, a pusher ball screw motor, a second ball nut, a pusher slider, and a pusher plate. The lower end of the pusher bracket is connected to the worktable 1, the pusher ball screw motor is connected to the left end of the pusher bracket, and the second ball nut is sleeved on the shaft of the pusher ball screw motor. The pusher slider is connected to the second ball nut, and the pusher plate is connected to the pusher slider.
[0081] Therefore, the linear module 18 drives the rocking tray 19 to move in the front-to-back direction, thereby moving a row of empty spaces on the tray to correspond to the suction cups 17. After one row is filled, the linear module 18 drives the tray to move back and forth again, so that another row of empty spaces can be filled to correspond to the suction cups 17.
[0082] After the tray is filled with test tubes, the linear module 18 drives the rocking tray 19 to move back and forth, causing the test tubes on the tray to shake horizontally, which can prevent mosquito eggs inside the test tubes from accumulating at the bottom. Then, the push plate on the back of the workbench 1 is used to push the tray full of test tubes to the lifting assembly 8.
[0083] Correspondingly, the lifting assembly 8 pushes out the tray, and the linear module 18 moves the rocking support plate 19 forward to correspond with the tray. The push plate on the front side of the worktable 1 pushes the tray to the left onto the rocking support plate 19. Then, the linear module 18 moves the rocking support plate 19 backward to near the suction cup 17.
[0084] To automatically control the temperature and humidity of the environmental incubation chamber 7. For example... Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation further includes a temperature and humidity probe 20, a humidification mechanism 21, and a heating mechanism 22. The temperature and humidity probe 20 is connected to the front side of the environmental incubation chamber 7 and is used to detect the temperature and humidity of the environmental incubation chamber 7. The humidification mechanism 21 is connected to the front side of the environmental incubation chamber 7 and is used to adjust the humidity of the environmental incubation chamber 7. The heating mechanism 22 is connected to the front side of the environmental incubation chamber 7 and is used to adjust the temperature of the environmental incubation chamber 7.
[0085] Specifically, the temperature and humidity inside the environmental incubation chamber 7 are detected by the temperature and humidity probe 20, and the temperature and humidity inside the environmental incubation chamber 7 are controlled by the humidification mechanism 21 and the heating mechanism 22, so as to realize feedback temperature and humidity and frequency-controlled temperature and humidity.
[0086] To facilitate the movement and placement of the automated mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, optionally, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation also includes a housing 23, casters 24, and foot cups 25. The workbench 1 is disposed inside the housing 23. The casters 24 are connected to the lower end of the housing 23. The foot cups 25 are connected to the lower end of the housing 23.
[0087] Specifically, by connecting casters 24 and foot cups 25 to the lower end of the housing 23, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation can be easily moved and placed at a fixed location. Preferably, four casters 24 are provided, and the four casters 24 are connected to the four corners of the lower end of the housing 23. Four foot cups 25 are provided, and the four foot cups 25 are connected to the four corners of the lower end of the housing 23.
[0088] To facilitate human-computer interaction and centralized management and control. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, optionally, the automatic mosquito egg quantitative incubation workstation further includes a touch screen 26, a power button 27, and a start button 28. The touch screen 26 is connected to the rear side of the housing 23. The power button 27 is connected to the rear side of the housing 23. The start button 28 is connected to the rear side of the housing 23.
[0089] Specifically, the touchscreen 26 allows for receiving operator input and enabling human-machine interaction control. The power button 27 and start button 28 provide better control. Furthermore, the internal casing 23 houses an IoT module that automatically reports the current real-time status to the administrator, meeting the needs of centralized management and timely response.
[0090] In this embodiment, the environmental incubation chamber 7 is configured as a plate-like structure, which together with the inner wall of the casing 23 forms a rectangular space for placing the lifting assembly 8, the tray, and the test tubes.
[0091] To ensure the effective functioning of the lifting component 8, such as... Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, optionally, the lifting assembly 8 includes a lifting mounting plate 29, a lifting mechanism 30, a transport mounting plate 31, a clamping mechanism 34, an ejection mechanism 35, a top door assembly 32, and a side door assembly 33. The lifting mounting plate 29 is connected to the lower end of the workbench 1. Two lifting mechanisms 30 are provided, and both lifting mechanisms 30 are connected to the lifting mounting plate 29. Two transport mounting plates 31 are provided, and the two transport mounting plates 31 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the right end of the lifting mounting plate 29. Multiple trays are stacked on the front transport mounting plate 31, and multiple trays filled with test tubes are stacked on the rear transport mounting plate 31. The two lifting mechanisms 30 are connected to the two transport mounting plates 31 in a one-to-one transmission connection and are used to drive the transport mounting plates 31 to move up and down.
[0092] The workbench 1 is provided with a first inlet and outlet, which is used for transporting the tray out and the tray full of test tubes into the environmental incubation chamber 7. A top door assembly 32 is provided at the first inlet and outlet. A second inlet and outlet is provided on the housing 23 opposite to the environmental incubation chamber 7. The second inlet and outlet is used for transporting the tray full of test tubes out of the environmental incubation chamber 7. A side door assembly 33 is provided at the second inlet and outlet.
[0093] A clamping mechanism 34 is connected to the left end of the lifting mechanism 30 and is used to clamp the tray.
[0094] The ejection mechanism 35 is located below the clamping mechanism 34 and is connected to the left end of the lifting mechanism 30. It is used to eject the tray filled with test tubes from the second inlet and outlet.
[0095] Specifically, when transporting the trays filled with test tubes into the environmental incubation chamber 7, the top door assembly 32 is first opened. Two sets of lifting mechanisms 30 are provided, located on the front and rear sides of the lifting mounting plate 29, respectively. The rear lifting mechanism 30 drives the rear transport mounting plate 31 and the stacked full trays upwards, passing through the first inlet / outlet. The pushing assembly 9 pushes the trays filled with test tubes onto multiple trays filled with test tubes. Then, the rear lifting mechanism 30 drives the newly stacked trays filled with test tubes into the environmental incubation chamber 7.
[0096] Subsequently, two sets of clamping mechanisms 34 are provided, located on the front and rear sides of the lifting mounting plate 29, respectively. The rear clamping mechanism 34 is used to clamp the second tray filled with test tubes from the bottom up, while the rear lifting mechanism 30 continues to move the bottommost tray filled with test tubes downwards until it corresponds to the ejection mechanism 35. The side door assembly 33 is opened, and the ejection mechanism 35 pushes the bottommost tray filled with test tubes out through the second inlet / outlet.
[0097] When replenishing the pallet into the environmental incubation chamber 7, the side door assembly 33 is opened, and the front clamping mechanism 34 is used to clamp the bottom pallet. The front lifting mechanism 30 continues to drive the front transport mounting plate 31 to the second inlet / outlet, and the pallet is placed on the front transport mounting plate 31 through the side door. Then, the front lifting mechanism 30 drives the front transport mounting plate 31 and the pallet to move upward until the bottom pallet is stacked at the bottom of multiple pallets.
[0098] When the pallet is moved out of the environmental incubation chamber 7, the top door is opened first, and the stacked pallets are moved upward by the front lifting mechanism 30 until the top pallet moves from the top door to the workbench 1. Then the top pallet is pushed onto the rocking pallet 19 by the pushing component 9.
[0099] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 30 includes a lifting motor, lifting synchronous pulleys, and lifting synchronous belt. The lifting motor is connected to the lifting mounting plate 29. The two lifting synchronous pulleys are rotatably connected to the upper and lower ends of the right side of the lifting mounting plate 29, respectively. The lifting synchronous belt is sleeved on the two lifting synchronous pulleys. The transport mounting plate 31 is connected to the lifting synchronous belt.
[0100] Preferably, two vertically arranged guide rails are installed on the right side of the lifting mounting plate 29, with the two guide rails located on the front and rear sides respectively. A first slider is connected to the front transport mounting plate 31, and the first slider is slidably connected to the front guide rail. A second slider is connected to the rear transport mounting plate 31, and the second slider is slidably connected to the rear guide rail.
[0101] The clamping mechanism 34 includes a clamping plate, a clamping ball screw motor, a clamping ball screw nut for clamping a slider seat and a gripper. The push plate is connected to the left side of the lifting mounting plate 29. The clamping ball screw motor is connected to the clamping plate. The clamping ball screw nut is sleeved on the shaft of the clamping ball screw motor. The clamping slider seat is connected to the clamping ball screw nut. The gripper is connected to the clamping slider seat. The gripper is used to pass through the lifting mounting plate 29 to clamp the pallet.
[0102] The ejection mechanism 35 includes a pusher plate, a pusher ball screw motor, a pusher ball screw nut, a pusher slider seat, a mounting plate, and a pusher rod. The pusher plate is connected to the left side of the lifting mounting plate 29. The pusher ball screw motor is connected to the pusher plate. The pusher ball screw nut is sleeved on the shaft of the pusher ball screw motor. The pusher slider seat is connected to the pusher ball screw nut.
