Description

Automatic measuring device for airborne bacteria and its measuring method

[0001] The present invention relates to an automatic airborne bacteria measuring device and a measuring method thereof, and more particularly, to an automatic airborne bacteria measuring device and a measuring method thereof, which can automatically measure airborne bacteria according to bioluminescence by a floating bacteria measuring unit, and further, can measure dust, including fine dust, in real time by size by a dust measuring unit, and can then convert the data and display it on a screen, thereby ensuring accuracy and efficiency in measuring airborne bacteria and dust.

[0002]

[0003] A common method for measuring microorganisms floating in the air is the airborne bacteria measurement method. This method involves forcibly inhaling a certain amount of air, passing it through a medium, and culturing the microorganisms adsorbed to the medium to measure them.

[0004] Therefore, it has the advantage of being able to obtain results that are quite close to the number of floating microorganisms, but it has the limitation that the results may vary depending on the culture conditions or measurement location, and it also takes a long time to obtain the results.

[0005] Meanwhile, another conventional technique for measuring airborne bacteria has been disclosed, which involves spraying air onto a rotating collecting plate via a nozzle to easily capture microorganisms within airborne particles through inertial collisions. However, this conventional technique required capturing microorganisms on the collecting plate and transferring them to a culture device. Furthermore, because it required a drive device to rotate the collecting plate, the device became bulky, making it difficult to carry and move.

[0006] In addition, in the case of conventional floating bacteria measurement technology, although it was possible to measure floating bacteria in the air, a separate dust measurement device was required to measure dust such as fine dust, so there was a limitation that the cost of building the device was bound to be high.

[0007] Therefore, there is a need for a new automatic measuring device and measuring method that can accurately and quickly measure airborne bacteria as well as accurately measure dust in the air by size.

[0008]

[0009] An embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic airborne bacteria measuring device and a measuring method thereof, which can automatically measure airborne bacteria based on bioluminescence by a floating bacteria measuring unit, and can also measure dust including fine dust in real time by size by a dust measuring unit, and can then convert the data and display it on a screen, thereby ensuring accuracy and efficiency in measuring airborne bacteria and dust.

[0047] As shown in these drawings, an automatic airborne bacteria measuring device (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a device housing (110) forming a frame, an air intake unit (120) provided in the device housing (110) for sucking in external air, a collection unit (130) for collecting floating matter in the air sucked in through the air intake unit (120), a reaction unit (140) for reacting the floating matter collected by the collection unit (130) with a reagent to cause a bioluminescence reaction, a floating bacteria measuring unit (150) for measuring airborne bacteria in a floating mold through the bioluminescence reaction that occurs in the reaction unit (140), and a dust measuring unit (170) for sucking in air and measuring dust contained in the air in real time by size.

[0049] In addition, it may further include an air outlet (190) through which air is discharged, an air pump (191) connected to the air outlet (190), a battery (193) that provides power to the components of the device of the present embodiment, and a dehumidifying unit (195) for removing moisture.

[0050] With this configuration, not only can airborne bacteria be measured accurately and quickly, but also fine dust, ultrafine dust, and ultrafine dust can be measured in real time by size, thereby achieving efficiency and accuracy of simultaneous measurement.

[0051] When explaining each configuration, first, the device housing (110) of the present embodiment, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, forms the exterior of the device and a mounting frame for various configurations, and is provided in an overall rectangular parallelepiped shape so that each configuration can be mounted on the exterior and interior. The mounting structure of the configuration of the device (100) will be described later.

[0052] The device (100) of the present embodiment can be easily moved to a desired location by the moving structure of the device housing (110). Accordingly, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, a moving wheel (111) for movement can be mounted on the four corner areas of the bottom surface of the device housing (110).

[0053] In addition, a handle portion (115) for pulling the device housing (110) may be provided on the side of the device housing (110). The handle portion (115) of the present embodiment has a structure in which the upper portion is pulled in and pulled out relative to the lower portion, so that, as shown in FIG. 1, when the device housing (110) of the present embodiment is fixed in one place, the handle portion (115) can be maintained in a state in which it is pulled into the interior of the device housing (110), and as shown in FIG. 2, when the device housing (110) of the present embodiment is moved, the handle portion (115) can be maintained in a pulled-out state so that the user can hold it and pull it to a desired location.

[0054] In addition, referring to FIG. 1, an upper cover (117) may be provided on the upper portion of the device housing (110). The upper cover (117) is hingedly connected to one side of the upper portion of the device housing (110) and can open or close the upper portion of the device housing (110) by rotation, thereby stably protecting the configuration within the device housing (110).

[0055] Meanwhile, the air intake unit (120) of the present embodiment may include, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, an intake port (121) for intake of external air, an air pump (not illustrated) for providing suction power to the intake port (121), and a dissolution space forming member (160) in which a dissolution space (160S) is formed to accommodate a dissolution solution that dissolves the cell walls or cell membranes of microorganisms in the air introduced through the intake port (121).

[0056] By the structure of this air intake part (120), after external air is sucked into the intake port (121) by the suction force provided from the air pump (191), the sucked air can be dissolved in the solution in the dissolution space forming member (160).

[0057] A humidifying unit (125) that supplies a dissolution solution containing a cell dissolving agent into the dissolution space (160S) may be mounted on one side of the dissolution space forming member (160).

[0058] Meanwhile, the collection unit (130) of the present embodiment, as well illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5, and particularly FIGS. 3 and 4, captures a floating substance dissolved in a solution in a dissolution space forming member (160) and transfers it to a reaction unit (140), and may include a movable member (131) that can move along a path formed in the device housing (110), an elevating member (132) that can be raised and lowered along the height direction of the movable member (131), and a cotton swab member (138) that is mounted on the elevating member (132) and raised and lowered relative to the elevating member (132).

[0059] More specifically, as illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 4, the movable member (131) can move linearly along the penetration guide (118) of the device housing (110) connecting the area where the dissolution space forming member (160) is mounted and the area where the reaction unit (140) is mounted, thereby enabling the capturing unit (130) to capture floating matter within the dissolution space (160S) and provide the captured floating matter to the reaction unit (140). In addition, the movable member (131) can be raised and lowered in the height direction of the device housing (110).

[0060] An elevating member (132) is mounted on the upper part of the movable member (131), and a cotton swab member (138) is mounted to be able to be lifted relative to the elevating member (132), through which the lower part of the cotton swab member (138) can enter the dissolution space (160S) to capture floating matter of the dissolved solution, and then the cotton swab member (138) is raised relative to the elevating member (132), and then the elevating member (132) is raised together with the movable member (131), and then the movable member (131) is moved toward the reaction unit (140), thereby performing a reaction process in the reaction unit (140).

[0061] As described above, the elevating member (132) has a structure that allows the cotton swab member (138) to be precisely elevated. To this end, the elevating member (132) may include, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, an elevation body (133) coupled to the upper end of the moving member (131), a gripper hand (134) provided inside the elevation body (133) to hold a portion of the cotton swab member (138), and a gripper motor (135) that operates the gripper hand (134) to elevate the cotton swab member (138) relative to the elevation body (133).

[0062] Due to the configuration of the elevating member (132), referring to FIG. 3, after the lower end of the swab member (138) is precisely lowered to the desired position of the dissolution space forming member (160), the floating matter dissolved in the solution can be captured at the lower end of the swab member (138), and then by driving the elevating member (132) to raise the swab member (138) and then raising the moving member (131) as a whole, the lower end of the swab member (138) can come out from the dissolution space forming member (160).

[0063] Meanwhile, the reaction unit (140) of the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, reacts the floating matter and the reagent provided by the collecting unit (130) by a vibration action, and may include a reaction hole (141) provided in the device housing (110) and forming a path through which the swab member (138) of the collecting unit (130) passes, and a reaction space forming member (145) provided at an end of the reaction hole (141) and forming a reaction space (145S) in which a bioluminescence reaction between the floating matter of the collecting unit (130) provided by the swab member (138) and the reagent occurs.

[0064] Here, the reaction space forming member (145) has a shape that is an inverted bowl as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and is vibrated at a frequency set by a timer (197) to enable a reaction between the floating material and the reagent. For example, a PLC timer can be applied as the timer (197), and the frequency of vibration can be varied through this.

[0065] In this reaction space forming member (145), a reaction occurs between the floating matter provided by the collecting unit (130) and the reagent. As the reagent, for example, luciferin and luciferase reagents can be used. In other words, a bioluminescence reaction can occur between the ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) of the airborne bacteria in the floating matter and the luciferin and luciferase reagents.

[0066] In detail, the present device (100) can measure bacterial concentration by converting bioluminescence into data. Bioluminescence is a biochemical reaction in which energy released when organic compounds in a biological element are oxidized by the action of an enzyme is released as light energy.

[0067] In the reaction space of the reaction unit (140), when ATP is decomposed into AMP (adenosine monophosphate) by the catalytic action of the enzyme luciferase, it can emit fluorescence when it meets the luminescent substance luciferin, which can be measured by the floating bacteria measurement unit (150).

[0068] In other words, the floating bacteria measuring unit (150) of the present embodiment can measure the ATP of floating bacteria in the floating matter generated through a bioluminescence reaction in the reaction unit (140).

[0069] Meanwhile, as described above, while airborne bacteria can be accurately and quickly measured by the device (100) of the present embodiment, dust contained in the air can be measured in real time by size by the dust measuring unit (170) provided in the device (100) of the present embodiment.

[0070] Although not illustrated in detail, the dust measurement unit (170) may be equipped with an inlet for air intake and an air module for generating suction force to draw in external air. Alternatively, the air intake unit (120) and the dust measurement unit (170) may be connected so that air is supplied to the dust measurement unit (170) through the inlet (121).

[0071] This dust measuring unit (170), as described above, can measure fine dust by size. To this end, the dust measuring unit (170) can be equipped with two dust measuring members (171, 175), as illustrated in Fig. 1. The upper dust measuring member (171) can measure ultrafine dust of PM 1.0, and the lower dust measuring member (175) can measure ultrafine dust of PM 2.5.

[0072] However, the measurement size of the dust measurement unit (170) is not limited to this, and it is obvious that real-time measurement is possible by size from fine dust to ultra-fine dust.

[0073] In this way, the measurement data for airborne bacteria measured by the floating bacteria measurement unit (150) and the measurement data for dust measured by the dust measurement unit (170) are converted into data by the conversion unit and can be displayed by the display unit (180).

[0074] In detail, the display unit (180) may display the number of floating bacteria measured by the floating bacteria measuring unit (150) and then converted by the conversion unit, or the amount of fine dust, ultrafine dust, or total fine dust measured by the dust measuring unit (170) and then converted by the conversion unit.

[0075] In addition, by simultaneously providing a floating bacteria measuring unit (150) and a dust measuring unit (170), it is possible to simultaneously measure microorganisms and fine dust, thereby quantifying the biological substrate of microorganisms and their biological concentration according to the size and amount of fine dust.

[0076] In addition, the display unit (180) may be equipped with an ATP value input unit to measure the floating bacteria luminescence measurement amount (RLU).

[0077] In this way, in this embodiment, not only can the suspended bacteria luminescence measurement amount (RLU) according to bioluminescence be automatically measured by the suspended bacteria measurement unit (150), but also the bacterial colony count (CFU) can be automatically measured, and furthermore, dusts including fine dust can be measured in real time by size by the dust measurement unit (170), and the data can be converted and displayed on the screen, thereby ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of measurement of suspended bacteria and dust.

[0078] This measurement process can be completed within, for example, 10 minutes, making it significantly faster than conventional bacterial culture measurement methods.

[0079] In addition, it is possible to extract floating bacteria by inhaling a low volume of sampling air through the air intake unit (120), and it is easy to understand measured data through IoT platform linkage, and since it has a structure in which floating bacteria are directly deposited, particle interference can be minimized.

[0080]

[0081] Meanwhile, below, a measurement method of an automatic airborne bacteria measuring device (100) having the aforementioned configuration will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0082] Fig. 7 is a drawing for explaining the operation of the capturing unit from the capturing step to the reaction step among the various steps of the measuring method of the automatic measuring device of Fig. 1.

[0083] The measuring method of the airborne bacteria automatic measuring device (100) of the present embodiment may include an air intake step, a dissolution step, a capture step, a reaction step, a floating bacteria measuring step, a dust measuring step, a conversion step, and a display step.

[0084] First, in the air intake step of this embodiment, external air can be intaked by the air intake unit (120).

[0085] In the dissolution step of this embodiment, the cell walls or cell membranes of microorganisms in the air sucked in through the suction port (121) of the air suction unit (120) in the dissolution space (160S) containing the dissolution solution can be dissolved, thereby generating a floating substance containing airborne bacteria.

[0086] In the capturing step of the present embodiment, floating matter within the dissolution space (160S) can be captured by the capturing unit (130). That is, as shown in the leftmost drawing of Fig. 7, the cotton swab member (138) of the capturing unit (130) can be inserted deep enough to touch the floating matter within the dissolution space (160S) so that the floating matter can be captured at the lower end of the cotton swab member (138).

[0087] Afterwards, as shown in the central drawing of Fig. 7, the capturing part (130) in the melting space forming member (160) can be moved along the penetration guide (118) to the area where the reaction part (140) is mounted, and then the reaction step can be executed.

[0088] In the reaction step of this embodiment, the floating matter captured by the capture unit (130) is reacted with luciferin and luciferase reagents by the reaction unit (140) to cause a bioluminescence reaction, thereby generating ATP.

[0089] That is, during the reaction step, as shown in the right drawing of FIG. 7, the cotton swab member (138) is brought into the reaction space forming member (145) provided in the reaction section (140), and the luciferin and luciferase reagents provided by the cotton swab member (138) are reacted with the ATP of the airborne bacteria contained in the floating matter in the reaction space forming member (145), thereby causing a bioluminescence reaction.

[0090] In the reaction step of this embodiment, the floating bacteria in the floating material can be measured through the bioluminescence reaction that occurred in the reaction unit (140) by the floating bacteria measuring unit (150). The floating bacteria measuring unit (150) is compatible with a conventional ATP measuring device that measures bioluminescence by measuring the ATP of the floating bacteria.

[0091] That is, during the floating bacteria measurement step, the floating bacteria measurement unit (150) can measure ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), which is a floating bacteria in the floating matter generated through a bioluminescence reaction in the reaction unit (140).

[0092] The dust measurement step of this embodiment can be executed in parallel with the floating bacteria measurement step described above, and dust in the external air can be measured in real time by size by the dust measurement unit (170).

[0093] Thereafter, in the conversion step of the present embodiment, data measured by the floating bacteria measuring unit (150) or data measured by the dust measuring unit (170) can be converted into data by the conversion unit, and in the display step, the value converted by the conversion unit can be displayed through the display unit (180).

[0094] This series of steps, i.e., the steps from the air intake step to the display step, can be accomplished in a time period of, for example, about 10 minutes, thereby improving the efficiency of simultaneous measurement operations.
