Cocoon picking machine and cocoon picking method for factory farming

Abstract

The invention discloses a cocoon harvesting machine and cocoon harvesting method for industrial farming, comprising a swing mechanism, a brush mechanism and a conveyor belt. , the conveyor belt carries out concentrated conveyance to the silkworm cocoons dropped by the brush. The method includes: a. fixing the cocoon cage on the swinging mechanism; b. adjusting the installation position of the swinging mechanism; The conveyor belt carries out horizontal conveying movement, the brush mechanism brushes off the cocoons on the cocoon cage, and the conveyor belt conveys the cocoons in a concentrated manner; d, scrapes the cocoons on the swing mechanism to the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt continuously conveys the cocoons; e. Remove the cocoon cage from the swing mechanism. The invention enables the cocoon cage to perform reciprocating swinging motion along with the swing mechanism, and the brush mechanism performs reciprocating cocoon picking work on the reciprocating swinging cocoon cage, so that less silkworm cocoons remain in the cocoon cage and the effect of silkworm cocoons is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of industrial sericulture, and in particular relates to a cocoon picking machine and a cocoon picking method for industrial farming. Background technique [0002] Silkworm is commonly known as silkworm baby, also known as silkworm, one of the economic insects that spin silk and cocoon with mulberry leaves as food. Belongs to Lepidoptera, Silk Mothidae. Mulberry silkworm originated in China, its growth temperature is 7-40°C, and the optimum temperature for feeding is 20-30°C, mainly distributed in temperate, subtropical and tropical regions. [0003] The whole life of silkworms goes through silkworm eggs, ant silkworms, silkworm babies, silkworm cocoons and silkworm moths, a total of more than forty days. The baby silkworms that have just hatched from the eggs are dark in color and are called "ant silkworms". They are covered with fine hairs, and the fine hairs will not be obvious after about two days. Aft...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Silkworm breeding is generally raised in small bamboo frames, which are simple in structure, easy to manufacture, can be hand-woven, and low in cost; silkworm breeding is a completely artificial breeding method, from the adult silkworm eggs to the cocoon picking are all realized through human operations; The scale of this method is small, the output of silkworm cocoons is low, time-consuming and laborious, and with the development of society, only relying on silkworm breeding cannot meet the demand for silk, so industrial sericulture came into being. The existing industrial sericulture has a small scale. Especially experience the cocoon picking process; the existing cocoon picking methods are manual cocoon picking or semi-automatic cocoon picking, the speed of manual cocoon picking is extremely slow, and the cocoon picking efficiency is low

The operation of semi-automatic cocoon picking is more difficult, the probability of failure is higher, and the efficiency of cocoon picking is low

[0005] Therefore, automated cocoon-picking equipment came into being. These automated cocoon-picking equipment are equipped with cocoon-picking structures directly on cocoon cages and tufts. The cocoon-picking structure is the core component of the cocoon-picking equipment, which directly affects the cocoon-picking efficiency.

Existing cocoon-picking structures include squeeze-type, ejector-type, and tooth-shaped structures. In actual cocoon-picking, it is found that these cocoon-picking structures have low efficiency, and there are more residual cocoons in cocoon cages and clusters, and the cocoon-picking effect is poor.
