[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides an electric thermostatic chamber for quality inspection of traditional Chinese medicine, including a chamber body 1, a door 11 hinged to the chamber body 1, a thermostatic chamber 12 disposed within the chamber body 1, a humidity sensor 13 disposed within the thermostatic chamber 12, a dehumidification component 2 disposed within the chamber body 1, a humidification component 3 disposed within the chamber body 1, and a controller 4 for controlling the dehumidification component 2 and the humidification component 3. The humidity sensor 13 is electrically connected to the controller 4. The dehumidification component 2 includes a dehumidification chamber 21, a cooling pipe 22, a heating pipe 23, a cooling device 24, a heating resistance wire 25, and a fan 26. The dehumidification chamber 21 is disposed at the bottom of the chamber body 1. The cooling pipe 22 and the heating pipe 23 are both disposed within the dehumidification chamber 21. The air inlet of the cooling pipe 22 is connected to the thermostatic chamber 12, and the air outlet of the cooling pipe 22 is connected to the heating pipe 23. Cooling device 24 is located at the top of cooling pipe 22, fan 26 is located outside the chamber 1, the air inlet of fan 26 is connected to the air outlet of heating pipe 23, and the air outlet of fan 26 is connected to the outside. Heating resistance wire 25 is located outside heating pipe 23. Through the coordinated work of dehumidification component 2 and humidification component 3, in conjunction with humidity sensor 13 and controller 4, dynamic and precise adjustment of humidity in constant temperature chamber 12 is achieved. Cooling pipe 22 draws in humid air from constant temperature chamber 12 through fan 26, and the cooling device 24 condenses and precipitates moisture to achieve active dehumidification. The dehumidified air passes through heating pipe 23, and heating resistance wire 25 can reheat the cold air to avoid direct backflow of low-temperature dry air, which would cause temperature fluctuations in constant temperature chamber, maintain temperature stability, ensure normal humidity and temperature in constant temperature chamber, and improve the stability of constant temperature chamber operation.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the heating pipe 23 and the cooling pipe 22 can be isolated from each other by a heat insulation plate to prevent their temperatures from affecting each other. In some embodiments, the controller 4 can be configured as a conventional microcontroller, which senses the air humidity inside the constant temperature cavity 12 through the humidity sensor 13. When the humidity inside the constant temperature cavity 12 is detected to be greater than or lower than a preset threshold, the controller 4 controls the dehumidification component 2 or the humidification component 3 to process the air inside the constant temperature cavity 12. The cooling device 24 can be configured as a semiconductor cooler. All of the above are conventional technical means, and will not be described in detail here.

[0022] The bottom of the cooling pipe 22 of this utility model is also connected to a drain pipe 27. The outlet of the drain pipe 27 is set outside the box body 1. The condensate generated by the cooling pipe 22 is directly discharged outside the box through the drain pipe 27 to avoid water backflow into the constant temperature chamber 12 or the growth of microorganisms, thus eliminating the risk of secondary pollution. The drain pipe 27 is set in a U shape. The U-shaped drain pipe 27 forms a liquid seal structure, which allows the condensate to be discharged smoothly and blocks the backflow of external air, maintaining a clean environment inside the box.

[0023] The dehumidification chamber 21 of this utility model is also provided with a sealed filter chamber 28. A UV lamp 29 is provided at the top of the filter chamber 28, and a photocatalyst 210 is provided at the bottom of the filter chamber 28. The air outlet of the heating pipe 23 extends into the filter chamber 28, and the air inlet of the fan 26 extends into the filter chamber 28. The UV lamp 29 sterilizes the dehumidified air with ultraviolet light, inactivating bacteria and viruses. The photocatalyst 210 can decompose organic pollutants under the irradiation of the UV lamp 29, eliminating odors and toxic substances.

[0024] An air filter assembly 5 is also provided at the air inlet of the cooling pipe 22 of this utility model. The air filter assembly 5 includes an installation sleeve 51, an electrostatic filter 52, and an activated carbon filter 53. The installation sleeve 51 is fitted onto the air inlet, and a filter installation channel 54 is provided inside the installation sleeve 51. The electrostatic filter 52 and the activated carbon filter 53 are detachably installed in the filter installation channel 54. The electrostatic filter 52 adsorbs particulate matter in the air, and the activated carbon filter 53 adsorbs chemical gases and odors. The detachable design facilitates regular cleaning or replacement of the filter, ensuring the long-term filtration efficiency.

[0025] The humidification component 3 of this utility model includes a water tank 31, an atomizing channel 32, an atomizer 33, and a solenoid valve 34. The water tank 31 is located on the top of the chamber 1, and a water inlet 36 is provided on the top of the water tank 31. The water inlet of the water inlet 36 extends through the outside of the chamber 1. The atomizing channel 32 is located on the water tank 31, and the atomizer 33 is located inside the atomizing channel 32. The solenoid valve 34 is located at the water inlet of the atomizing channel 32. Water is added to the water tank 31 through the water inlet 36, and the atomizer 33 disperses the water into tiny droplets, which can quickly improve the humidity uniformity inside the constant temperature chamber. The solenoid valve 34 is connected to the controller 4 and can adjust the water volume to avoid over-humidification.

[0026] The humidification component 3 of this utility model also includes a mist dispersion sleeve 35, which is provided with a plurality of mist dispersion ports 351. The mist dispersion sleeve 35 is detachably connected to the water outlet of the atomization channel 32. The mist dispersion sleeve 35 disperses the moisture evenly into the constant temperature chamber 12 through the multiple mist dispersion ports 351, solving the problems of local over-humidity and condensation, and improving the consistency of humidity control.

[0027] Activated carbon columns 311 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the water tank 31 of this utility model. The activated carbon columns 311 inside the water tank 31 adsorb impurities, ions and microorganisms in the water, ensuring that the atomized water source is clean and avoiding the introduction of pollutants during the humidification process.

[0028] The outer side of the housing 1 of this utility model is provided with a display panel 6 for displaying humidity data in the constant temperature chamber 12. The display panel 6 is electrically connected to the humidity sensor 13, which facilitates user monitoring and parameter adjustment, and improves the ease of operation and experimental reliability.

[0029] The outer side of the housing 1 of this utility model is provided with a control button 7, which is electrically connected to the controller 4. The control button 7 supports manual intervention and automatic control, such as forced dehumidification or humidification, which can adapt to special working conditions and enhance the practicality of the equipment.

[0030] Of course, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
