Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of incubator technology, and in particular to a microbial community incubator. Background Technology

[0002] In fields such as microbiology, molecular biology, and biochemistry, it is often necessary to isolate, purify, identify, and study microorganisms, as well as their metabolism and physiology. In order to provide a suitable growth environment for microorganisms, microbial culture chambers are commonly used to cultivate various microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes.

[0003] The glass cover of a typical incubator is a single piece. When one of the culture dishes needs to be removed from the incubator, the glass cover is fully open, allowing air to enter the incubator and come into contact with other culture dishes, posing a risk of contaminating the microbial community. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a microbial community incubator to solve the problems raised in related technologies.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, a microbial community incubator is provided, comprising an incubator body and a door rotatably disposed on the incubator body, and further comprising: a support portion, wherein there are a plurality of support portions and all are disposed inside the incubator body, the support portions dividing the incubator body into a plurality of areas, and the support portions being used to hold culture dishes; The sealing caps are multiple in number and are rotatably mounted inside the incubator. When the sealing caps are fastened to the incubator, they seal the area. When the sealing caps are opened, the corresponding culture dishes can be removed.

[0006] Furthermore, the side wall of the incubator is provided with several receiving slots.

[0007] Furthermore, the supporting part includes a supporting plate. The front side of the supporting plate is provided with two grooves.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the grooves is provided with an arc-shaped groove inside.

[0009] Furthermore, the sealing cap includes a cap body.

[0010] Furthermore, a protruding strip is fixedly provided on the inner surface of the cover, and a ring is fixedly provided on the outer end of the protruding strip.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention divides the culture chamber into multiple independent areas by setting multiple support plates. Each area has a sealed cover on the outside. When taking out the culture dish, only the corresponding cover needs to be opened, while the other covers remain closed, sealing the corresponding culture dish and preventing air from entering.

[0014] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0015] like Figure 1 Only Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a microbial community incubator, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a culture chamber 1 and a door 2 that is rotatably mounted on the culture chamber 1. A groove 6 is provided on the surface of the culture chamber 1. It also includes a support part 4. There are several support parts 4, all of which are located inside the culture chamber 1. The support parts 4 divide the culture chamber 1 into several areas. The support parts 4 are used to hold culture dishes. There are several sealing caps 3, all of which are rotatably mounted on the side wall of the sedimentation tank 6. When the sealing caps 3 are fastened to the incubator body 1, the area is sealed. When the sealing caps 3 are opened, the corresponding culture dishes can be taken out.

[0016] like Figure 3 As shown, a number of receiving troughs 5 are provided on one side of the settling tank 6 and communicate with it. The cover 31 is made of transparent glass and is rotatably connected to the side wall of the settling tank 6, so that the cover 31 can rotate at the opening of the incubator 1.

[0017] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the support part 4 includes a support plate 41. The front side of the support plate 41 is provided with two grooves 44, and each groove 44 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 45.

[0018] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the sealing cover 3 includes a cover body 31. The orthographic projection of the cover body 31 completely covers the area of ​​each region into which the incubator 1 is divided by the support plate 41, ensuring that the cover body 31 can seal the outside of the region.

[0019] A protruding strip 32 is fixedly provided on the inner surface of the cover 31, and a ring 33 is fixedly provided on the outer end of the protruding strip 32.

[0020] The cover 31 is located inside the door 2. The door 2 needs to be opened first before the cover 31 can be opened. The two are independent of each other.

[0021] The ring 33 is made of highly elastic rubber; the diameter of the arc groove 45 is greater than the height of the groove 44, and the diameter of the ring 33 is greater than the thickness of the ridge 32; the diameter of the ring 33 is slightly larger than the diameter of the arc groove 45. When the cover 31 is closed, the ridge 32 and the horizontal section of the ring 33 will align with the groove 44 and engage. The ring 33 is deformed by the groove 44 and then engages in the arc groove 45, fixing the cover 31 to the incubator 1; the thickness of the ridge 32 is slightly less than the height of the groove 44, allowing it to be inserted into the groove 44; the two grooves 44 are used to accommodate two adjacent ridges 32 respectively. The receiving groove 5 is connected to the groove 44. When the cover 31 is closed, the vertical section of the ring 33 can be inserted into the receiving groove 5. The engagement between the protrusion 32 and the horizontal section of the ring 33 with the groove 44 and the arc groove 45 respectively can increase the sealing performance of the cover 31 when it is closed. Place the culture dish containing the microbial community on the support plate 41, rotate the cover 31 so that the protrusions 32 and rings 33 on it are inserted into the corresponding grooves 44, arc grooves 45 and receiving grooves 5 respectively. The cover 31 seals all areas inside the culture box 1, and then close the box door 2.

[0022] By opening the door 2, the growth of microbial flora in the culture dish can be observed through the cover 31.

[0023] When it is necessary to remove some of the petri dishes, open the corresponding cover 31. Other petri dishes that do not need to be removed are still sealed by the outer cover 31 to prevent air from entering and avoid contamination of the microbial community in the petri dishes by bacteria in the air.

[0024] The culture chamber 1 is divided into multiple independent areas by setting multiple support plates 41. Each area is equipped with a sealed cover 31 on the outside. When taking out the culture dish, only the corresponding cover 31 needs to be opened, while the other covers 31 remain closed, sealing the corresponding culture dish and preventing air from entering.

[0025] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
