Automatic device for insect breeding and insect breeding system

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic device for insect breeding, which comprises a rack, and a pick-and-place conveying device, an automatic screening device and an automatic feeding device which arematched with one another are arranged on the rack; the pick-and-place conveying device comprises a tray taking mechanism capable of ascending and descending in the rack, and the device is used for ascending and descending to the position near any layer of breeding trays on the breeding frame so as to pull the breeding trays to the tray taking mechanism; the automatic screening device comprises a conveying belt mechanism, and the conveying belt mechanism is used for bearing the breeding trays conveyed by the tray taking mechanism and driving the breeding trays to horizontally move to the material receiving hopper to be overturned and unloaded through an overturning mechanism; the automatic feeding device comprises a forward and reverse conveying mechanism, and the forward and reverse conveying mechanism is used for bearing the culture trays conveyed by the tray taking mechanism and driving the culture trays to horizontally move to the position below the uniform feeding mechanism for uniform feeding. The invention further discloses an insect breeding system. The system has the advantages of being convenient and fast to operate, high in intelligent automation degree, high in culture area utilization rate, good in culture effect and capable of greatly reducing the labor intensity of workers.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention mainly relates to the field of insect breeding equipment, in particular to an automatic device for insect breeding, and also to an insect breeding system. Background technique [0002] In the current society, insect breeding has certain industrial economic value. For example, Tenebrio molitor is the most ideal feed insect for artificial breeding. It has high nutritional value and can be directly used as food for raising frogs, turtles, scorpions, centipedes, ants, high-quality fish, ornamental birds, medicinal animals, precious fur animals and rare livestock and poultry. Live animal protein feed, and can be used in food, health care products, cosmetics and other industries after processing, because its protein nutrition ranks first among all kinds of live animal protein feed, it is known as "treasure house of protein feed". [0003] Taking Tenebrio molitor as an example, its life cycle is divided into four parts: eggs, larvae, pu...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. There are the following problems in manual dish picking and delivery: First, the labor intensity is very high, and breeding is very hard

Because the breeding rack is very high, it is necessary to manually build stairs or shelves to carry out the operation of picking and delivering multi-level breeding plates. The breeding plate itself is not easy to carry. In addition, the operation of climbing up and down the ladder makes the labor intensity very high. The efficiency of picking and sending plates Very low, farming is very hard

The second is that it is easy to step on air when taking and delivering the tray manually, resulting in the risk of people falling

Or it is easy to tilt the culture plate, resulting in the risk of insects falling

The third is that the breeding trays on the breeding rack need to be manually changed after a period of time (the insects need to be changed when they grow up), manual feeding, and manual screening of worms, insects, and insect skins, and the multi-layer stacking method is not conducive to the above-mentioned The operation of the three operations not only leads to low work efficiency, but also high labor intensity, and may even cause many problems such as uneven feeding and insufficient screening

At the same time, this manual farming method of picking up and sending dishes also makes the degree of automation and intelligence very low, and cannot form an automated assembly line farming, and the efficiency of insect production is low, which cannot meet commercial needs.

[0005] 2. There are the following problems in manual screening and removal of insect bodies, insect excrement, and insect skin in the breeding tray by using a sieve tray: First, because of the large number of breeding, this kind of manual feeding of the breeding trays one by one, and then manual screening and removal The method results in a lot of manual labor intensity, and it is very hard to screen and eliminate, and it is impossible to quickly separate and pack the insects, insect droppings, and insect skins at one time.

The second is that when removing, it is necessary to screen the mixed insects, insect droppings, and insect skins separately. However, the existing methods lead to unclean and incomplete screening, and insect droppings, insect skins, and insects are often mixed together, which seriously affects yellow powder. Worm growth

The third is that the manual screening and removal method is rough, which will cause damage to the screened Tenebrio molitor, and even the phenomenon of dead insects, which seriously affects subsequent commercial use.

Fourth, the artificial manual screening and elimination method has a low degree of intelligence and cannot adapt to automated breeding equipment

If you want to design an automated breeding system for the existing farming methods to improve the efficiency of farming, then as an indispensable part of the screening in farming operations, the existing manual screening methods are bound to be unable to meet the needs of automated farming operations.

[0006] 3. There are the following problems in artificial feeding: First, because of the large number of breeding pots or breeding boxes, this artificial feeding method leads to a lot of manual labor and feeding is very hard.

The second is that the work efficiency of artificial feeding is extremely low, and due to the large number, errors may occur, and a certain breeding pot or breeding box is omitted, resulting in the death of the cultivated Tenebrio molitor

The third is that the habits of each feeding worker are inconsistent, and the feeding feel of the same worker is also inconsistent, resulting in extremely poor feeding uniformity

Some areas feed too much, causing the food to stay for a long time and spoiling waste; some areas feed too little, resulting in uneven growth of the same batch of Tenebrio molitor; even dead insects appear, which seriously affects subsequent commercial use

Fourth, artificial feeding has a low degree of intelligence and cannot adapt to automated farming equipment

If we want to design an automated breeding system for the existing artificial breeding method to improve the efficiency of breeding, then as an indispensable part of feeding in the farming operation, the existing artificial feeding method is bound to be unable to meet the needs of automated farming operations. carried out
