Insect larva separation equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses insect larva separation equipment, which comprises a separation cabin and a mechanical vibration device, wherein the mechanical vibration device comprises a wave sieve and a support frame, wherein the two ends of the wave sieve are connected with the support frame through a spring vibrator, the right side of the wave sieve is higher, the left side of the wave sieve is lower, a separation funnel is arranged under the wave sieve, a separation fan is arranged at the left side of the separation funnel, the separation cabin is positioned at the right lower part of the wave sieve, and a plurality of movable collecting funnels are arranged at the bottom of the separation cabin. The insect larva separation equipment has the advantages that the wave sieve is firstly utilized for separation, then, the separation is carried out through wind powder, the separation of the insect larva from rest culture media can be fast and effectively realized through secondary separation, the mechanical separation of the insect larva is realized, and the conditions are provided for the scaled culture of the insect culture.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of insect breeding, and in particular relates to an insect larva separation device. Background technique: [0002] Among the existing natural resources, the ones with large quantity, wide distribution and rich sources but lack of development should be insect resources first. According to statistics, there are more than 1 million species of insects known on the earth, accounting for about 60% of the entire animal kingdom (Guan Yuguang et al., 2002). For human beings, insects are a huge resource bank, regardless of their benefits or harms, they are a huge wealth of human beings, and they will play an unprecedented role in the fields of biomedicine, food, health products, feed industry and fine chemicals. Therefore, insects are known as the world's largest unutilized biological resources in the 21st century. [0003] At present, insects that are researched and developed more at home and abroad include Tenebrio molitor ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

At present, there are many ways to separate the larvae from the remaining medium. One is to use the characteristics of the larvae to separate. The separation efficiency of this method is low and the time is too long; one is to artificially create conditions in the culture medium that are not conducive to the survival of the larvae to force them to climb out, such as creating a closed environment to make the culture medium hypoxic , or adding repellents to the culture medium to force the larvae to crawl out. This type of method has good application prospects, but the cost of adding repellents is too high, and the anoxic method can only separate larvae from shallow culture medium. It is difficult to separate the larvae in the depth; there is also a common mechanical sieve on the market for separation. This kind of general mechanical sieve can achieve rapid separation, but the separation rate is low and the loss of larvae is large
