微生物是包括细菌、真菌、病毒、立克次氏体、支原体、衣原体、螺旋体原生生物以及单细胞藻类在内的一大类微生物群体,虽然大部分微生物人类难以用肉眼分辨,但是它们种类繁多、数量庞大,与人类的关系十分密切。科学家们对微生物的研究涉及了人类生活生产的方方面面,取得许多有益的成果,例如利用产电微生物研发出生物燃料电池、改造益生菌帮助人体对抗致病菌和治疗肿瘤、运用微生物发酵技术高效生产大麻素用于癫痫、免疫性肝炎等疾病的治疗。在进行微生物研究的过程中,科研人员经常需要对微生物的生长情况进行实时的监测记录,这一过程往往耗时长、操作繁琐,而且人工操作不可避免地会增加实验结果的误差,因此需要更自动化和智能化的机械设备辅助科学研究。将机体一体化系统应用于生物学实验中一些简单重复的操作过程,不仅大大提高实验的可重复性和精确性,而且能降低研究的时间成本和经济成本,推动生物学研究向工程化、自动化的方向发展。Microorganisms are a large group of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, viruses, rickettsiae, mycoplasma, chlamydia, spirochetes, protists, and single-celled algae. Although most microorganisms are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, there are many kinds of microorganisms. The number is huge, and the relationship with humans is very close. Scientists' research on microorganisms involves all aspects of human life and production, and has achieved many beneficial results, such as the use of electricity-producing microorganisms to develop biofuel cells, the transformation of probiotics to help the human body fight pathogenic bacteria and treat tumors, and the use of microbial fermentation technology for efficient production Cannabinoids are used in the treatment of diseases such as epilepsy and immune hepatitis. In the process of conducting microbial research, researchers often need to monitor and record the growth of microorganisms in real time. This process is often time-consuming and cumbersome to operate. Manual operation will inevitably increase the error of experimental results, so it needs to be more automated And intelligent mechanical equipment to assist scientific research. Applying the integrated system of the organism to some simple and repetitive operation processes in biological experiments not only greatly improves the repeatability and accuracy of the experiment, but also reduces the time and economic costs of research, and promotes biological research to engineering and automation The direction of development.
现有技术中,有人采用传感器检测运动的细菌载台的位置,并利用相机在检测位置对细菌进行拍照。当检测到细菌载台在相机的拍摄视野中时,控制细菌载台暂停运动并拍照,拍照完成后,控制细菌载台继续运动。然而,理论上,微生物培养需要恒温恒湿的环境,该装置需要处在专门设计的温室中才能实现其功能,然而,温室温度容易受到实验人员进出的影响,并且,温室内湿度环境会严重影响计算机以及仪器的正常运行,导致微生物培养所需的环境难以真正实现,无法精确监测微生物的生长情况。In the prior art, some people use sensors to detect the position of the moving bacteria carrier, and use a camera to take pictures of the bacteria at the detection position. When it is detected that the bacteria carrier is in the shooting field of view of the camera, the bacteria carrier is controlled to suspend the movement and take pictures. After the picture is taken, the bacteria carrier is controlled to continue to move. However, in theory, the cultivation of microorganisms requires a constant temperature and humidity environment, and the device needs to be in a specially designed greenhouse to achieve its function. However, the temperature of the greenhouse is easily affected by the entry and exit of the experimenter, and the humidity environment in the greenhouse will be seriously affected The normal operation of computers and instruments makes it difficult to truly realize the environment required for microbial cultivation, and it is impossible to accurately monitor the growth of microorganisms.

The incubator 20 includes an air inlet 201 and an air outlet 202. , The heating device 23 and the humidifying device 24 are connected to the air inlet 201 and the air outlet 202 through the hot air pipe 25 at the same time, and a non-return fan is provided inside each of the air inlet 201 and the air outlet 202 of the incubator 20 26. The non-return fan 26 on the side of the air inlet 201 is used to draw air into the incubator 20, and the non-return fan 26 on the side of the air outlet 202 is used to draw air to the outside of the incubator 20, and the airflow can enter from the air inlet 201.

结合图4所示,本发明相应地也提供了一种微生物培养及运动自动追踪方法:As shown in Figure 4, the present invention also provides a method for microbial cultivation and automatic movement tracking:
当系统工作时,温湿检测器21实时检测培养箱20内的温度和湿度;When the system is working, the temperature and humidity detector 21 detects the temperature and humidity in the incubator 20 in real time;
当温湿检测器21检测到培养箱20内的温度和/或湿度条件不符合实验要求时,温湿控制器22则控制加热装置23和/或加湿装置24运行;此时,加热装置23和/或加湿装置24则通过通入热风管25的空气来对应调节培养箱20内的温度和/或湿度环境,以符合实验要求;When the temperature and humidity detector 21 detects that the temperature and/or humidity conditions in the incubator 20 do not meet the experimental requirements, the temperature and humidity controller 22 controls the heating device 23 and/or the humidifying device 24 to operate; at this time, the heating device 23 and /Or the humidifying device 24 correspondingly adjusts the temperature and/or humidity environment in the incubator 20 through the air introduced into the hot air pipe 25 to meet the experimental requirements;
当培养箱20内的温度和湿度符合要求时,加热装置23、加湿装置24停止工作,则主控中心发出控制指令,指示监测子系统1可以开始工作,图像采集元件12可以进行下一步的获取载物盘11上的培养皿内微生物的图像的动作。When the temperature and humidity in the incubator 20 meet the requirements, and the heating device 23 and the humidifying device 24 stop working, the main control center issues a control instruction to instruct the monitoring subsystem 1 to start working, and the image acquisition component 12 to perform the next step of acquisition The action of the image of microorganisms in the petri dish on the tray 11.
培养箱20设计为大致呈长方体结构,其至少一个侧面还设有用于打开和关闭的门204,可以通过该门204将培养皿放入载物盘11或从载物盘11取出,培养箱20的侧壁还开设有出线孔203,出线孔203可用于供各种走线穿出。The incubator 20 is designed to have a substantially rectangular parallelepiped structure. At least one side of the incubator 20 is also provided with a door 204 for opening and closing. The door 204 can put the culture dish into the carrier tray 11 or take it out from the carrier tray 11. The incubator 20 The sidewalls of the S2 are also provided with outlet holes 203, and the outlet holes 203 can be used for various wires to pass through.
如图2所示,培养箱20为俯视状态,进风孔201远离培养箱20的门204而更靠近培养箱20的背面,且出风孔202相对于进风孔201更靠近培养箱20的底面,使得自顶部通入的热空气自上而下依次充满培养箱20后从下方的出风孔202排出,实现培养箱20内的温度均一的空气环境。As shown in Figure 2, the incubator 20 is in a top view state, the air inlet 201 is far from the door 204 of the incubator 20 and is closer to the back of the incubator 20, and the air outlet 202 is closer to the incubator 20 than the air inlet 201 The bottom surface makes the hot air introduced from the top fill the incubator 20 sequentially from top to bottom and then is discharged from the air outlet 202 below, so as to achieve a uniform temperature air environment in the incubator 20.
更进一步地,本实施例的培养子系统2包括设于培养箱20内的多孔的进风板27,进风板27正对并靠近进风孔201,阻挡在进风孔201与载物盘11之间。优选该进风板27的四周都与培养箱20的内壁接触,将培养箱20分隔为左右两个腔体部分。多孔的进风板27中,气孔阵列地布置在进风板27上。自进风孔201进入培养箱20的空气,通过进风板27后气流更加均匀平稳,从而可以保证培养箱20内的空气环境充盈且气流平缓,最大限度地降低对于微生物的影响。Furthermore, the culture subsystem 2 of this embodiment includes a porous air inlet plate 27 arranged in the incubator 20. The air inlet plate 27 is opposite to and close to the air inlet 201, and is blocked between the air inlet 201 and the carrier plate. Between 11. Preferably, the four sides of the air inlet plate 27 are in contact with the inner wall of the incubator 20, and the incubator 20 is divided into two left and right cavity parts. In the porous air inlet plate 27, air holes are arranged on the air inlet plate 27 in an array. The air entering the incubator 20 from the air inlet 201 passes through the air inlet plate 27 and the air flow is more uniform and stable, thereby ensuring that the air environment in the incubator 20 is full and the air flow is gentle, and the impact on microorganisms is minimized.
如图3所示,监测子系统1除了包括载物盘11和图像采集元件12外,还包括底座13、相连的闭环步进电机14和旋转台15、灯带16。底座13固定在培养箱20的底面上,也可以与培养箱20的底面一体成型,图像采集元件12通过支架固定在底座13上,载物盘11呈圆盘状,载物盘11上沿其周向间隔地开设有多个(本实施例以6个为例)用于放置培养皿的放置槽110,这些放置槽110的中心布置在与载物盘11同心的圆上,载物盘11绕其中心可转动地设于培养箱20的底面,且在载物盘11转动的过程中,各放置槽110轮流地与上方的图像采集元件12正对,也就是说,图像采集元件12的视区中心在载物盘11上的正投影位于各放置槽110的中心所在的圆上。结合图5所示,载物盘11旋转的过程中,当其中一个培养皿转动至图像采集元件12正下方的位置时,载物盘11停止转动,图像采集元件12对培养皿内的微生物拍照,拍照完成,载物盘11继续转动,直至下一个培养皿转动至图像采集元件12正下方的位置,载物盘11停止转动,图像采集元件12再次拍照......,如此往复。上一次拍照完成后,培养皿会停留在培养箱内继续培养一段时间,然后再次进行拍照记录,以对生长状况进行对比检测。As shown in FIG. 3, the monitoring subsystem 1 includes a base 13, a connected closed-loop stepper motor 14 and a rotating table 15, and a light strip 16 in addition to a carrier plate 11 and an image acquisition component 12. The base 13 is fixed on the bottom surface of the incubator 20, and can also be integrally formed with the bottom surface of the incubator 20. The image acquisition element 12 is fixed on the base 13 through a bracket. The carrier plate 11 is in the shape of a disc. A plurality of placement grooves 110 (6 in this embodiment are taken as an example) for placing petri dishes are provided circumferentially at intervals. The centers of these placement grooves 110 are arranged on a circle concentric with the carrier plate 11, and the carrier plate 11 It is rotatably arranged on the bottom surface of the incubator 20 around its center, and during the rotation of the carrier plate 11, the placement grooves 110 alternately face the upper image acquisition element 12, that is, the image acquisition element 12 The orthographic projection of the center of the viewing zone on the tray 11 is located on the circle where the center of each placement slot 110 is located. As shown in FIG. 5, during the rotation of the tray 11, when one of the petri dishes rotates to a position directly below the image acquisition element 12, the tray 11 stops rotating, and the image acquisition element 12 takes pictures of the microorganisms in the petri dish After the photo is taken, the tray 11 continues to rotate until the next petri dish rotates to a position directly below the image capture element 12, the tray 11 stops rotating, and the image capture element 12 takes pictures again..., and so on. After the last photo is taken, the petri dish will stay in the incubator for a period of time, and then take photos and record again to compare the growth status.
为实现载物盘11的精确旋转和定位,以便精确地保证图像采集元件12与载物盘11的工作协调性(载物盘11转动停止则拍照,拍照完成则载物盘11继续转动),又考虑到如果采用两相步进电机,需要霍尔传感器对旋转转台的位置进行矫正,灵敏度不高。本实施例的监测子系统1还具有相连的闭环步进电机14和旋转台15,主控中心连接闭环步进电机14以控制闭环步进电机14工作,载物盘11固定地承载在旋转台15上,闭环步进电机14通过驱动旋转台15而带动载物盘11旋转和暂停。In order to realize the precise rotation and positioning of the carrier plate 11, so as to accurately ensure the work coordination between the image acquisition element 12 and the carrier plate 11 (the carrier plate 11 will take pictures when the rotation stops, and the carrier plate 11 will continue to rotate when the picture is completed), It is also considered that if a two-phase stepping motor is used, a Hall sensor is required to correct the position of the rotating turntable, and the sensitivity is not high. The monitoring subsystem 1 of this embodiment also has a closed-loop stepper motor 14 and a rotating table 15 connected to each other. The main control center is connected to the closed-loop stepper motor 14 to control the closed-loop stepper motor 14 to work. The carrier plate 11 is fixedly carried on the rotating table. At 15, the closed-loop stepping motor 14 drives the rotating table 15 to drive the carrier plate 11 to rotate and suspend.
在微生物培养及运动自动追踪方法中,当监测子系统1工作时,闭环步进电机14接收来自主控中心的计算机程序的命令驱动旋转台15工作,实现载物盘11按照固定的速度和时间间隔进行旋转,由于闭环步进电机14自带用于对输出进行修正的反馈电路,载物盘11每转动360°,主控中心根据载物盘11的定位位置确定与转子位置相适应的相位转换,从而对闭环步进电机14的转动进行校正。例如,闭环步进电机14按照程序设定的步数转动后停止,其间,载物盘11带动其中一个培养皿转动至图像采集元件12正下方,主控中心控制图像采集元件12拍照,拍照完毕后,闭环步进电机14再次转动,如此反复,完成载物盘11上六个培养皿内的实验对象的记录后,主控中心根据闭环步进电机14的位置反馈信息确定与转子位置相适应的相位转换,并根据反馈信息对闭环步进电机14的下一步动作进行校正,以使载物盘11的下一圈转动定位不会出现偏差,保证闭环步进电机14的转动和定位精度。In the method of microbial cultivation and automatic movement tracking, when the monitoring subsystem 1 is working, the closed-loop stepping motor 14 receives the command from the computer program of the main control center to drive the rotating table 15 to work, so that the carrier plate 11 is at a fixed speed and time. Rotate at intervals. Since the closed-loop stepper motor 14 has a feedback circuit for correcting the output, every time the carrier plate 11 rotates 360°, the main control center determines the phase corresponding to the rotor position according to the positioning position of the carrier plate 11 Conversion, thereby correcting the rotation of the closed-loop stepping motor 14. For example, the closed-loop stepper motor 14 rotates according to the number of steps set by the program and then stops. During this time, the carrier plate 11 drives one of the petri dishes to rotate to just below the image acquisition element 12, and the main control center controls the image acquisition element 12 to take pictures, and the picture is taken. After that, the closed-loop stepper motor 14 rotates again, and repeats this process. After completing the recording of the experimental objects in the six petri dishes on the carrier plate 11, the main control center determines that it is compatible with the rotor position according to the position feedback information of the closed-loop stepper motor 14. According to the feedback information, the next action of the closed-loop stepper motor 14 is corrected, so that there will be no deviation in the next rotation and positioning of the carrier plate 11, and the rotation and positioning accuracy of the closed-loop stepper motor 14 can be ensured.
