Description

本発明の培養装置の第１の特徴は、内部で培養を行う培養器手段と、前記培養器手段を内部に有し、前記培養器手段を培養に適した状態に設定する保温箱と、前記保温箱内の前記培養器手段に前記保温箱の外部から薬品を供給する薬品供給手段と、前記保温箱内の前記培養器手段から不要な廃液を前記保温箱の外側に排出する廃液排出手段と、を備えた培養装置であって、ガスボンベから前記保温箱内にガスを供給し、前記保温箱内のガス濃度を調整するガス濃度調整手段と、前記ガスボンベのガスにより前記薬品供給手段による供給経路及び廃液排出手段の排出経路のうち少なくとも一つの開路および閉路を行う開閉手段を有することにある。
本発明の培養装置の第２の特徴は、前記経路がチューブであり、前記開閉手段がピンチ弁であることにある。
培養器手段の配置された外箱手段内は、ガス濃度調整手段によって二酸化炭素ボンベなどのガスボンベから供給されるガス濃度が調整されている。このように培養においては、二酸化炭素ガスなどの使用は必須である。そこで、このガスボンベのガス圧を動力源として利用して、薬品供給手段や廃液排出手段に用いられているエアシリンダなどの稼働部を駆動するようにしたものである。
The first feature of the culture device of the present invention, the incubator unit is cultured in internal, has the incubator means in the interior, the thermal insulation box for setting the incubator means in a state suitable for culture, discharging the chemical supply means for supplying externally et drug products of the thermal insulation box in the incubator means in the heat insulation box, unwanted waste liquid from the incubator means in the heat insulation box outside the thermal insulation box A waste liquid discharging means, and a gas concentration adjusting means for supplying a gas from a gas cylinder into the heat insulating box and adjusting a gas concentration in the heat insulating box; and the chemical supply by the gas in the gas cylinder And opening / closing means for opening and closing at least one of the supply path by the means and the discharge path of the waste liquid discharge means .
The second feature of the culture apparatus of the present invention is that the path is a tube and the opening / closing means is a pinch valve.
In the outer box means in which the incubator means is arranged, the gas concentration supplied from a gas cylinder such as a carbon dioxide cylinder is adjusted by the gas concentration adjusting means. Thus, in the culture, use of carbon dioxide gas or the like is essential. In view of this, the gas cylinder gas pressure is used as a power source to drive an operating portion such as an air cylinder used in the chemical supply means and the waste liquid discharge means.

Claims

Incubator means for culturing inside;
A heat-retaining box having the incubator means therein and setting the incubator means in a state suitable for culture;
A drug delivery means for supplying the thermal insulation box of externally et drug products in the incubator means in the heat insulation box,
A culture apparatus, comprising: a waste liquid discharge means, a discharging the unnecessary waste liquid to the outside of the thermal insulation box from the incubator means in the heat insulation box, to supply gas into the thermal insulation box from the gas cylinder, the a gas concentration adjusting means for adjusting the gas concentration in the thermal insulation box, that it has a switching means for performing at least one of the open circuit and closed circuit of the discharge path of the supply path and the waste liquid discharge means by the medicine supply means by the gas in the gas cylinder Characteristic culture device.

Said path is a tube, said closing means culture apparatus according to claim 1, characterized in that it is a pinch valve.
