In other words, the exhaust fan blade may circulate the air flow in the incubator through the connecting pipe to the flow pipe in the heat preservation pipe, and the temperature and humidity thereof may be detected by the air exhaust detection assembly on the flow pipe, so that the temperature and humidity monitoring in the air flow circulation may be realized, and the monitoring accuracy may be improved. Compared with the fixed-point monitoring in the prior art, the monitoring range of the device covers a wide range and is not affected by external factors, wherein the flow pipe is further provided with a control valve, which may effectively realize the closed-pipe adjustment of the corresponding flow pipe, so that the temperature and humidity monitoring work may be performed independently or simultaneously by the two air exhaust detection assemblies.
In the embodiment, an air intake end of the ventilation box 11 on the right is fixed with a drainage disc 14, a plurality of airflow holes are distributed on the drainage disc 14, and one side in the ventilation box 11 located at the drainage disc 14 is rotatably provided with an interception disc 15, the interception disc 15 being provided with a plurality of inner holes, so that the inner holes are communicated with the airflow holes one by one under the continuous rotation of the interception disc, thereby transporting and introducing the airflow in all directions in the incubator to ensure the comprehensiveness of monitoring.
As a preferred embodiment, the air exhaust detection assembly 3 includes: a sealed pipe mount 31 with an inner portion symmetrically embedded and fixed with a delivery pipe bracket 32, the delivery pipe bracket 32 being provided with two discharge cavities; an adapter sleeve 33, which is rotatably arranged at both ends of the sealed pipe mount 31, each of the adapter sleeves 33 being provided with a bypass channel corresponding to the discharge cavity; an outer ring bracket 35, which is fixed on the adapter sleeve 33, a strut 36 being fixed horizontally between the outer ring brackets 35; an inner connecting pipe 34, which is connected to one of the bypass channels of the adapter sleeve 33, one end of the inner connecting pipe 34 being communicated with the flow pipe 21; an intermediate chamber, which is arranged up and down between the delivery pipe bracket 32 and communicated with the discharge cavity on the delivery pipe bracket 32; a first temperature and humidity sensor 37 and a second temperature and humidity sensor 38, which are respectively arranged in each of the intermediate chambers; and an external connecting pipe 39, which is connected to the other bypass channel of the adapter sleeve 33. In other words, the airflow inside the incubator in the flow pipe may be transported to any discharge cavity in the delivery pipe bracket through the bypass channel of the adapter sleeve for then being transported to the intermediate chamber through the corresponding discharge chamber and being monitored in the temperature and humidity by the first temperature and humidity sensor or the second temperature and humidity sensor, thereby improving the monitoring accuracy.
In the embodiment, the heat preservation pipe 2 is provided inside with a drive motor (not shown), an output end of the drive motor is connected with the outer ring bracket 35 for 5 transmission through gear engagement, and a deflection angle of the outer ring bracket 35 is in the range of 0° to 180°. In other words, the adapter sleeve may make each bypass channel communicate with the discharge cavity under the forward and reverse adjustment.
In the embodiment, an airflow pipe 13 is arranged parallel on one side of the incubator 1 located at the heat preservation pipe 2, the airflow pipe 13 is fixed to the heat preservation pipe 2 through a joint pipe, and one end of each of the external connecting pipes 39 passes through the joint pipe and is communicated with the airflow pipe 13, both the external connecting pipe 39 and the inner connecting pipe 34 being made of deformable rubber hoses. In other words, when the first temperature and humidity sensor detects the temperature and humidity of the airflow in the incubator, the second temperature and humidity sensor may simultaneously detect the temperature and humidity of the ambient airflow outside the incubator so as to predict changes in the temperature and humidity in the incubator by monitoring the ambient temperature and humidity while realizing the work switching between the first temperature and humidity sensor and the second temperature and humidity sensor under the steering adjustment of the adapter sleeve, thereby avoiding the reduction of the accuracy of the temperature and humidity sensor under long-term monitoring work and improving the monitoring effect; in order to avoid the influence of ambient airflow on the airflow in the incubator during later use, the external connecting pipe may be sealed through the valve.

In the embodiment, a supplementary airflow is conveyed in the air delivery pipe 45, especially when the temperature and humidity of the airflow in the incubator is not up to standard. In order to further improve the monitoring accuracy, then the airflow in the incubator is preferentially pressurized by the pneumatic cylinder, and then the supplementary airflow is mixed in through the air delivery pipe (temperature is 35°C to 37°C, humidity is 80% to 85%), so as to realize the adjustment of the temperature and humidity in the incubator; an expected monitoring value of the air exhaust detection assembly is pre-set preferentially, and the supplementary airflow is fed by the air delivery pipe and merged with the airflow in the incubator, so as to detect whether the mixed airflow reaches the expected monitoring value through the air exhaust detection assembly, thereby improving the monitoring accuracy.
Specifically, the airflow in the incubator is circulated through two ventilation boxes, and the temperature and humidity may be directly monitored by the air exhaust detection assembly in the airflow cycle. When the first temperature and humidity sensor detects the temperature and humidity of the airflow in the incubator, the second temperature and humidity sensor may simultaneously detect the temperature and humidity of the ambient airflow outside the incubator, and then a switch is performed between the first temperature and humidity sensor and the second temperature and humidity sensor to improve the monitoring accuracy; when the temperature and humidity of the airflow in the incubator is not up to standard, in order to avoid the humidity or temperature of the mixed airflow being too high, the expected monitoring value of the air exhaust detection assembly is pre-set preferentially, and the accuracy in the adjustment for the temperature and humidity is improved by controlling the delivery volume of the supplementary airflow in the air delivery pipe.
What has been described above is only a preferred embodiment of the invention, but the protection scope of the invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent replacements or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the invention according to the technical solution of the invention and the inventive concepts shall fall within the protection scope of the invention.
