Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of algae cultivation facilities, specifically to a microalgae propagation device. Background Technology

[0002] Microalgae refer to tiny communities of algae whose morphology can only be discerned under a microscope. Microalgae generally refer to the collective term for microorganisms containing chlorophyll a and capable of photosynthesis, belonging to a type of protist organism. Microalgae are rich in nutrients such as protein, polysaccharides, and unsaturated fatty acids (e.g., spirulina), and can be used in the food and pharmaceutical industries, possessing enormous market development potential. Microalgae have high requirements for growth conditions, such as light and temperature. Suitable cultivation conditions are crucial for improving the yield and quality of microalgae. When propagating microalgae, it is usually necessary to manually adjust and control the temperature within the cultivation device to ensure that the microalgae are always in a temperature environment conducive to growth. However, it is difficult to achieve uniform temperature within the propagation device during batch cultivation. Therefore, we propose a microalgae propagation device to solve the above problems.

[0015] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely one embodiment of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on this embodiment, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Specific embodiments are as follows: A microalgae propagation device, such as Figures 1-5 The incubator includes an incubator body 1 and an incubator cover 2 located on the top surface of the incubator body 1. The inner wall of the incubator body 1 is provided with a spiral heating wire 3. Four sets of fixing seats 4 are provided in the middle of the incubator body 1, and the four sets of fixing seats 4 are arranged in a rectangular manner. Each set of fixing seats 4 is provided with a set of incubator tanks 5. A stirring module 6 is provided in the middle of the incubator cover 2. Heating wire 3 heats the water in the culture chamber 1, and stirring module 6 stirs the water in the culture chamber 1 to make the water in the culture chamber 1 heated more evenly.

[0016] The stirring module 6 includes a stirring motor 61, an active stirring rod 62, a connecting rod 63, and a driven stirring rod 64. The stirring motor 61 is located in the center of the surface of the incubator cover 2. The active stirring rod 62 is located at the output end of the stirring motor 61. One end of the connecting rod 63 is connected to the surface of the active stirring rod 62, and the other end of the connecting rod 63 is connected to the driven stirring rod 64. When the stirring motor 61 is started, the stirring motor 61 rotates, causing the active stirring rod 62 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of the active stirring rod 62, the connecting rod 63 rotates, and the connecting rod 63 drives the driven stirring rod 64 to rotate around the active stirring rod 62. During the rotation of the active stirring rod 62, the active stirring rod 62 stirs the cold water in the middle of the culture tank 1. Under the action of centrifugal force, the active stirring rod 62 pushes the cold water in the middle of the culture tank 1 to the inner edge of the culture tank 1. During the rotation of the driven stirring rod 64, the hot water in the inner edge of the culture tank 1 flows, thereby mixing the hot water and cold water in the culture tank 1. This makes the temperature in the culture tank 1 more uniform when heating the water in the culture tank 1, ensuring that the microalgae in the culture tank 1 are in a suitable temperature for growth, and improving the efficiency of microalgae propagation.

[0017] Both the active stirring rod 62 and the driven stirring rod 64 have several sets of crossbars symmetrically arranged on their surfaces, with the crossbars evenly spaced at equal intervals. The coordination between these crossbars improves the stirring effect of the active stirring rod 62 and the driven stirring rod 64, thereby increasing the efficiency of water mixing in the culture tank 1.

[0018] A rubber wheel 7 is provided on the surface of the driven stirring rod 64, and the surface of the rubber wheel 7 is roughened. A limiting groove 8 is opened on the inner wall of the culture tank 1. The inner wall of the limiting groove 8 is in close contact with the surface of the rubber wheel 7, and the rubber wheel 7 rolls along the surface of the limiting groove 8 by the driven stirring rod 64. During the rotation of the driven stirring rod 64 around the active stirring rod 62, the driven stirring rod 64 drives the rubber wheel 7 to rotate synchronously. Due to the friction between the surface of the rubber wheel 7 and the inner wall of the limiting groove 8, the rubber wheel 7 rolls along the limiting groove 8 during rotation. The driven stirring rod 64 rotates synchronously under the drive of the rubber wheel 7, thereby increasing the stirring efficiency of the driven stirring rod 64 and accelerating the speed of uniform mixing of water temperature in the culture tank 1. The limiting groove 8 plays a guiding and supporting role for the rubber wheel 7, reducing the pressure of direct contact between the rubber wheel 7 and the inner wall of the culture tank 1, and making the rotation of the rubber wheel 7 more stable.

[0019] A support module 9 is provided between the incubator cover 2 and the stirring module 6. The support module 9 includes a support column 91 and a guide groove 92. The support column 91 is located on the surface of the connecting rod 63, and the guide groove 92 is located on the surface of the incubator cover 2. The end of the support column 91 is formed with a spherical protrusion, and the guide groove 92 is formed as an arc-shaped sliding groove adapted to the surface of the support column 91. The width of the opening of the guide groove 92 is smaller than the diameter of the spherical part at the end of the support column 91, and the surface of the spherical part at the end of the support column 91 is in close contact with the inner wall of the guide groove 92. When the connecting rod 63 rotates, the support column 91 rotates synchronously along the guide groove 92 under the drive of the connecting rod 63. The support column 91 and the guide groove 92 cooperate to support the connecting rod 63, reduce the pressure on the end of the connecting rod 63, and make the device more stable. The spherical end of the support column 91 is adapted to the arc-shaped inner wall of the guide groove 92, making the support column 91 slide more smoothly inside the guide groove 92.

[0020] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
