Description

Deep sea multicellular organism pressure maintaining capture and long-term culture device
Technical Field
The invention relates to a deep sea organism capturing and culturing technology, in particular to a device for pressure-maintaining capturing and long-term culturing of deep sea multicellular organisms.
Background
The deep-sea biosphere is one of the largest but the least developed biological habitats on the earth, which is mainly limited by the lack of sampling and culturing means. Biological pressure-holding sampling under deep sea conditions, pressure-holding transfer after recovery, and long-term culture are important technical means for studying deep sea organisms.
In terms of the technical means of pressure-maintaining sampling of deep-sea multicellular organisms (relative to microorganisms), the deep-sea multicellular organisms are mainly divided into two types according to the distribution mode. One is the lander-based sampling technique by laying the equipment on the lander with buoyant material and laying the weights on the lander. And after the sampling device reaches the seabed, the driving device of the sampling device is started to finish the sampling action. After sampling is finished, the lander is unloaded, and the sampling equipment returns to the sea surface along with the lander. The second is to complete the sampling with the help of an ROV. The manipulator of the ROV helps the sampler to complete the sampling action. This approach does not require the sampling device to have its own power source. In terms of sealing, there are basic classifications of hard seals and packing seals. Hard sealing is primarily meant to be accomplished by extrusion of metal surfaces using ball valves and the like. The packing seal mainly refers to a seal formed by utilizing extrusion force of a rubber sealing ring and a sealing interface. Generally, metal-to-metal seals have high reliability, but are heavy, which causes great inconvenience for deployment in deep sea.
In addition, in order to observe and test a biological sample obtained by deep sea pressure-holding sampling for a long period of time, it is necessary to transfer the biological sample from the pressure-holding sampling apparatus to a maintenance culture apparatus. In the process, problems of equipment pressure loss, organism mechanical damage, long transfer time and the like are often caused by switching operation, and research workers are troubled for a long time.
Therefore, it is an urgent need for researchers to provide a device capable of sampling deep sea and long-term preservation and culture, and there is no published report on such a technique.

FIG. 3 shows the external culture system of the multi-cell biological capture device, which includes a fresh seawater delivery system and a food feeding system. The fresh seawater conveying system comprises a one-way valve 28, a booster pump 27, a water source 26 and an overflow valve 25, wherein the one-way valve 28 is connected with the pressure-resistant cylinder body 1 through an adapter before the device is launched, and the other end of the one-way valve is connected with an outlet of the booster pump 27 after the device is recovered; the inlet of the booster pump 27 is connected with a water source 26; the overflow valve 25 is hermetically connected with the pressure-resistant cylinder 1 through an adapter before the device is used for draining water.
The food feeding system comprises a food feeding inlet 19, a food feeding ball valve 20, a food feeding cabin 29, a water inlet ball valve 21, a food feeding booster pump 22, a food feeding ball valve 24 and a water source 23, wherein the food feeding ball valve 24 is hermetically connected with the pressure-resistant cylinder body 1 through a joint before the device is used for draining water, and the other end of the food feeding ball valve is connected with the food feeding cabin 29; the food mixing cabin 29 is connected with the food throwing inlet 19 through a food throwing ball valve 20; the food mixing cabin 29 is connected with the outlet of the booster pump 22 through a water inlet ball valve 21; the inlet of the booster pump 22 is connected with a water source 23.
The working process of the invention is as follows:
before the catching device is launched into water, the damping connecting rods 5 on the left side and the right side are pushed simultaneously to drive the movable end covers 6 to move closely, so that the movable end covers 6 (the observation windows 8) on the left end and the right end drive the outer sleeve 9 and the inner sleeve 11 to move closely and extrude the spring 10. When the ends of the left and right damping connecting rods 5 move to proper positions, the bolt 4 is inserted into the damping bracket 3 to limit the damping connecting rods 5, and the open holes of the fixed end covers 2 at the left and right ends are in an open state. The gas chamber on the right side of the accumulator piston 16 is pre-charged with nitrogen at pressure so that the piston 16 is pushed to the leftmost side of the accumulator chamber. The check valve 28, the feed ball valve 24, and the overflow valve 25 are connected to the pressure-resistant cylinder 1.
In the launching process, the depth of the device is increased continuously, and the pressure of seawater borne by the device is increased continuously. Seawater in the pressure maintaining cavity enters the liquid chamber on the left side of the energy accumulator piston 16 through the pressure-resistant stainless steel pipe under the action of pressure, and pushes the piston 16 to move so as to realize the balance of the pressure of the gas-liquid chamber.
After the device reaches the designated water depth, the state of the device and whether the deep sea multicellular organisms (relative to the microorganisms) enter the cabin body are observed by a camera on the ROV which is simultaneously launching. When deep sea multicellular organisms enter the pressure maintaining cavity, the bolt 4 is pulled out of the damping support 3 and released through a mechanical arm on the ROV, and at the moment, the spring sleeve mechanism loses the motion constraint in the axial direction. Under the action of the energy accumulated by the spring 10, the observation windows 8 at the left and right ends drive the sleeve and the damping connecting rod 5 to move away towards the two ends. The movable end covers 6 at the left end and the right end and the fixed end cover 2 are axially sealed through O-shaped sealing rings, and the friction force between the damping connecting rod 5 and the damping support 3 can prevent the observation window 8 from generating instant acceleration under the action of the spring 10 and causing sudden movement to impact the fixed end cover 2.
In the process of recovering the device, the outer pressure is continuously reduced along with the rise of the device because the cabin body is in a sealing state. In the process, the internal pressure of the cabin body is greater than the external pressure, so the movable end cover 6 is tightly and hermetically connected with the fixed end cover 2 under the action of differential pressure. Because the pressure deformation and weak insufficient sealing of the pressure-resistant metal cabin body in the recovery process can cause small reduction of the internal pressure of the cabin body, the energy accumulator piston 16 moves rightwards under the action of the pressure of the gas cavity to compensate the pressure reduction of the internal pressure of the cabin body of the capturing device.
After the unit is recovered, the booster pump 27 and water supply 26 are connected to the one-way valve 28 and the food feeding system is connected to the feeding ball valve 24. The booster pump 27 is turned on and when the pressure is greater than the pressure inside the chamber, external fresh seawater is pumped from the water supply 26 into the chamber and the pressure inside the chamber is now increased. When the pressure in the chamber of the capture device is larger than the set threshold value of the overflow valve 25, the seawater in the chamber flows out of the overflow valve 25. The outlet of the overflow valve 25 is connected to a water source 26, so that a dynamic balance circulating water system can be formed. For a food feeding system, the feeding ball valve 24 is kept closed before feeding, the feeding ball valve 20 is opened, food is fed into the food mixing chamber 29 through the feeding inlet 19, and the feeding ball valve 20 is closed. The water inlet ball valve 21 and the booster pump 22 are opened, and fresh seawater is introduced from the water source 23 to pressurize the food mixing chamber 29. When the pressure of the food mixing chamber 29 is equal to the pressure inside the device, the feed booster pump 22 and the water inlet ball valve 21 are closed. The feeding ball valve 24 is opened, and the food in the food mixing chamber 29 enters the inner part of the chamber of the capturing device through the feeding ball valve 24 under the action of the self-weight in an environment without pressure difference. So far, with the support of a fresh seawater conveying system and a food feeding system, the long-term culture research of the benthos in a laboratory can be directly carried out.
Finally, it should be noted that the above-mentioned list is only a specific embodiment of the present invention. It is obvious that the invention is not limited to the above embodiments, but that many variations are possible. All modifications which can be derived or suggested by a person skilled in the art from the disclosure of the present invention are to be considered within the scope of the invention.
