Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of insect separation methods, specifically relating to a highly efficient method and equipment for separating bat moth larvae. Background Technology
[0002] The larvae of the ghost moth (Hepialus chinensis) are a carrier of the Cordyceps fungus, therefore, ghost moth larvae are mainly used to cultivate Cordyceps sinensis, and the artificial breeding of ghost moth larvae is gradually emerging. In existing technologies, the traditional method of artificially breeding ghost moth larvae usually involves setting up multiple breeding ponds in a cultivation platform, placing groups of ghost moth larvae in the ponds for breeding. However, the large breeding space in the farm inevitably leads to temperature imbalances and uneven feed distribution, resulting in reduced survival rates.
[0003] Therefore, the breeding method is usually changed to dividing the insects into smaller cups to reduce the space. In this cup-shaped small space, the environmental temperature and feed distribution are relatively uniform, which is conducive to improving the survival rate. However, in the process of artificially dividing the insects into cups, in addition to dividing the larvae equally, feed and substrate need to be added to each cup to improve the breeding environment. However, this will increase the cost of artificial breeding or cultivation and reduce efficiency. There is currently no equipment or method that can replace the manual division of insects for breeding, so there is still room for improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method and equipment for efficiently separating bat moth larvae, which can replace manual labor in separating and raising larvae in cups, thereby reducing labor costs and improving efficiency.
[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A highly efficient method for separating ghost moth larvae includes the following steps:
[0007] Preparation for sorting: The automatic sorting machine places the breeding boxes one by one on the first conveyor and transports them to the automatic loading machine, which then places the breeding boxes into the corresponding loading stations.
[0008] Quantitative feeding: The automatic palletizer rotates each palletizing station to face the feed hopper in turn. The feeding mechanism delivers a quantitative amount of feed into the breeding box. The automatic palletizer further rotates each palletizing station to face the second conveyor and lowers the corresponding breeding box onto the second conveyor for transport. The feeding box is then connected to the screw feeder via the second conveyor, and the screw feeder fills the breeding box with a quantitative amount of substrate.
[0009] Insect release and capping: As the breeding box continues to move forward via the second conveyor, a fixed amount of bat moth larvae are manually placed into the breeding box; the breeding box containing larvae is then conveyed via the second conveyor to the capping machine, which places a sealing cap on the opening of the breeding box and fastens it.
[0010] Furthermore, after the quantitative feeding, the process also includes compaction inside the breeding box: when the breeding box is transported to the compaction mechanism by the second conveyor, the compaction mechanism compacts the raw materials and substrate inside the breeding box.
[0011] Furthermore, in the preparation of the tray distribution, the automatic tray distribution machine places the breeding boxes one by one on the first conveyor in the following manner: after the reciprocating telescopic component of the automatic tray distribution machine retracts, the tray distribution suction cup moves down to fit against the breeding box at the top, and uses the tray distribution suction cup to pick up a single breeding box. Then, after the tray distribution suction cup resets and extends the reciprocating telescopic component, the picked-up breeding box is placed on the first conveyor.
[0012] Furthermore, in the preparation of the tray distribution, the automatic tray loading machine places the breeding boxes on the corresponding tray loading stations in the following way: the automatic tray loading machine drives multiple tray loading stations to rotate intermittently through its own rotating mechanism. When the box inlet opening on the side of the tray loading station is opposite to the conveying direction of the first conveyor, the rotating mechanism pauses, and the first conveyor continues to convey the breeding boxes forward until the breeding boxes enter the box inlet opening of the tray loading station. Then the rotating mechanism continues to work and repeats the operation.
[0013] Furthermore, in the quantitative feeding process, the feeding mechanism delivers the quantitative feed into the breeding box using the following method: the automatic loading machine drives multiple loading stations to rotate intermittently through its own rotating mechanism. When the opening of the breeding box at the loading station is directly opposite the downward-sloping discharge port of the feeding mechanism, the feeding mechanism is activated to open the discharge port. The feed falls from the discharge port into the breeding box by gravity. During the feeding process, the head scale at the loading station simultaneously weighs the breeding box until the total weight of the breeding box and the feed inside reaches the standard. Then, the feeding mechanism is paused to close the discharge port.
[0014] Furthermore, in the quantitative feeding process, the corresponding breeding boxes are placed onto the second conveyor for transmission using the following method: the automatic loading machine drives multiple loading stations to rotate through its own rotating mechanism until the breeding boxes on the loading station are facing the second conveyor. Then, the extension at the rear of the loading station is activated to push the breeding boxes onto the second conveyor.
[0015] Furthermore, in the insect release and capping process, the cap feeding and capping machine places and fastens the sealing cap onto the opening of the breeding box using the following method: the cap feeding and capping machine's cap-removing suction cup picks up the sealing cap and places it on the opening of the breeding box, and the cap feeding and capping machine's pressing mechanism presses down on the sealing cap to fasten the sealing cap onto the breeding box.
[0016] An efficient device for separating ghost moth larvae, applicable to the aforementioned efficient method for separating ghost moth larvae, includes an automatic sorting tray machine, a first conveyor, an automatic tray loading machine, a feeding mechanism, a second conveyor, a screw feeder, a compaction mechanism, and a cap feeding and capping machine; the automatic sorting tray machine is connected to the automatic tray loading machine via the first conveyor; the automatic tray loading machine has a rotating mechanism, and the outer circumferential surface of the rotating end of the rotating mechanism is provided with several tray loading stations; the side of each tray loading station has an inlet opening, and the back of each tray loading station has an extension member; the extension member extends... The direction is towards the box opening; the feeding mechanism is set on the automatic tray loading machine, the discharge port of the feeding mechanism is directly opposite to the rotation trajectory of the several tray loading stations about the rotating mechanism, the automatic tray loading machine is connected to the lid feeding and closing machine through the second conveyor, the screw feeder is set between the automatic tray loading machine and the lid feeding and closing machine, the feeding port of the screw feeder is directly opposite to the second conveyor, the compaction mechanism is set between the screw feeder and the lid feeding and closing machine, and the compaction end of the compaction mechanism is directly opposite to the second conveyor.
[0017] Furthermore, the automatic tray separating machine has a reciprocating telescopic component, and the telescopic end of the reciprocating telescopic component has a tray separating suction cup, with the suction end of the tray separating suction cup facing downwards.
[0018] Furthermore, the cap feeding and cap fastening machine has a movable component, the movable end of which has a cap-removing suction cup, and the cap feeding and cap fastening machine also has a pressing mechanism, the pressing end of which faces the second conveyor.
[0019] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. The high-efficiency equipment for separating ghost moth larvae of the present invention comprises an automatic separating tray machine, a first conveyor, an automatic loading tray machine, a feeding mechanism, a second conveyor, a screw feeder, a compaction mechanism, and a lid feeding and closing machine. The first and second conveyors transport the breeding boxes along the processing flow to the corresponding equipment, where the breeding boxes are separated and fed, the breeding boxes are automatically loaded, the feed and substrate are quantitatively fed, the feed and substrate are compacted, the larvae are manually released, and the lids are closed. This replaces manual quantitative dispensing of feed and substrate, thereby reducing labor costs and improving the efficiency of separating larvae, while also increasing the survival rate of ghost moth larvae during the breeding process.
[0021] 2. The efficient method for separating ghost moth larvae of the present invention mainly includes three steps: tray preparation, quantitative feeding, and larvae placement and sealing. In the tray preparation step, the rearing boxes are individually fed and transported forward using a specific structure and method. In the quantitative feeding step, feed and substrate are placed into the rearing boxes using a specific structure and method. In the larvae placement and sealing step, ghost moth larvae are manually placed into the rearing boxes containing feed and substrate. Finally, a sealing lid is installed at the opening of the rearing box to create a relatively constant temperature environment with suitable space and nutrients, thereby improving the survival rate of ghost moth larvae in a single rearing box. Furthermore, the above method is largely based on equipment structure and can effectively replace manual larvae separation and rearing, reducing labor costs, improving larvae separation and rearing efficiency, and increasing the survival rate of ghost moth larvae.

[0024] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Terms such as “upper,” “inner,” “middle,” “left,” “right,” and “one” used in this specification are merely for clarity of description and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered within the scope of the invention.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] A highly efficient device for separating ghost moth larvae, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method for efficiently separating bat moth larvae can automatically transfer the rearing box (not shown, which is used to hold the feed, substrate and larvae required for rearing) according to the required workflow, while replacing manual operation of separating bat moth larvae, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0027] The equipment of the present invention includes an automatic tray separating machine 1, a first conveyor 2 (which may be a conveyor belt structure), an automatic tray loading machine 3, a feeding mechanism 4, a second conveyor 5 (which may be a conveyor belt structure), a screw feeder 6, a compaction mechanism 7, and a cover feeding and closing machine 8.
[0028] The automatic tray sorting machine 1 is used to place breeding boxes one by one onto the first conveyor 2. The automatic tray sorting machine 1 has a reciprocating telescopic component (not shown), which can be a robotic arm, a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric cylinder. The telescopic end of the reciprocating telescopic component has a lifting component (not shown), which can also be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or electric cylinder. The extended end of the lifting component faces downwards, and the extended end of the lifting component is equipped with a tray-sorting suction cup (not shown). The tray-sorting suction cup is a pneumatic suction cup, with its suction end facing downwards. Therefore, the tray-sorting suction cup can be used to pick up the breeding boxes one by one, and then the reciprocating telescopic component can be used to place the breeding boxes onto the first conveyor 2. The automatic tray sorting machine 1 is connected to the automatic tray loading machine 3 via the first conveyor 2. The first conveyor is used to transfer the breeding boxes to the automatic tray loading machine 3.
[0029] The automatic loading machine 3 is used to place the breeding boxes one by one on it. The automatic loading machine 3 has a rotating mechanism 31, which can be a motor and turntable structure. The outer circumferential surface of the rotating end of the rotating mechanism 31 is provided with several loading stations 32. The side of the loading station 32 is provided with a box inlet opening 33. Therefore, when the box inlet opening 33 is directly opposite the first conveyor, the breeding box can be placed into the box inlet opening 33. The back of the loading station 32 is provided with a protruding part (not shown in the figure). The protruding part can be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or electric cylinder. The protruding direction of the protruding part is towards the box inlet opening 33, so that the breeding box can be pushed onto the second conveyor 5 after the subsequent feed is fed.
[0030] The feeding mechanism 4 is installed on the automatic loading machine 3. The feeding mechanism 4 can adopt a structure such as a hopper and an electrically controlled feeding valve or a hopper and an electrically controlled flip cover. The discharge port 41 of the feeding mechanism 4 is directly opposite to the rotation trajectory of several loading stations 32 about the rotation mechanism 31. When the opening of the breeding box on the loading station is directly opposite to the discharge port 41 of the feeding mechanism 4, the feeding mechanism 4 puts a certain amount of feed into the breeding box.
[0031] The automatic feeding machine 3 is connected to the cover-feeding and covering machine 8 via the second conveyor 5. The screw feeder 6 is located between the automatic feeding machine 3 and the cover-feeding and covering machine 8. The feeding port of the screw feeder 6 is directly opposite the second conveyor 5. The screw feeder 6 is used to feed the substrate into the breeding box containing feed. The compaction mechanism 7 is located between the screw feeder 6 and the cover-feeding and covering machine 8. The compaction end of the compaction mechanism 7 is directly opposite the second conveyor 5. The compaction mechanism 7 controls the compaction end to compact the feed and substrate in the breeding box, thereby increasing the space in the breeding box for placing larvae.
[0032] The cap feeding and cap fastening machine 8 is used to place the sealing cap inside the breeding box and fasten it. The cap feeding and cap fastening machine 8 has a moving part (not shown in the figure), which can be a robotic arm, cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or electric cylinder. The moving end of the moving part has a cap-removing suction cup (not shown in the figure), which is a pneumatic suction cup. The cap feeding and cap fastening machine 8 also has a pressing mechanism (not shown in the figure), which can be a structure with lifting function such as a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, electric cylinder, screw module, etc. The pressing end of the pressing mechanism faces the second conveyor 5. After the sealing cap is placed on the breeding box, the sealing cap can be fastened to the opening of the breeding box by the pressing mechanism.
[0033] In summary, the high-efficiency equipment for separating Hepialus larvae of the present invention, by setting up an automatic tray separating machine 1, a first conveyor 2, an automatic tray loading machine 3, a feeding mechanism 4, a second conveyor 5, a screw feeder 6, a compaction mechanism 7, and a lid feeding and closing machine 8, transports the breeding boxes along the processing flow to the corresponding equipment via the first conveyor 2 and the second conveyor 5, respectively performing the following processes: tray separating and feeding of breeding boxes, automatic tray loading of breeding boxes, quantitative feeding of feed and substrate, compaction of feed and substrate, manual release of larvae, and lid closing. This achieves the replacement of manual quantitative dispensing of feed and substrate, thereby improving the efficiency of separating larvae and increasing the survival rate of Hepialus larvae during the cultivation process.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] A method for efficiently separating ghost moth larvae, using the equipment for efficiently separating ghost moth larvae described in Example 1, includes the following steps:
[0036] Preparation for sorting: Automatic sorting machine 1 places the breeding boxes one by one on the first conveyor 2. The first conveyor 2 transports the breeding boxes to the automatic loading machine 3. The automatic loading machine 3 places the breeding boxes on their respective loading stations 32.
[0037] The automatic tray sorting machine 1 places the breeding boxes one by one on the first conveyor 2 using the following method: after the reciprocating telescopic component of the automatic tray sorting machine 1 retracts, the tray sorting suction cup moves down to fit against the breeding box at the top, and uses the tray sorting suction cup to pick up a single breeding box. Then, after the tray sorting suction cup resets and extends the reciprocating telescopic component, the picked-up breeding box is placed on the first conveyor 2, thereby realizing the function of placing the breeding boxes one by one.
[0038] The automatic loading machine 3 places the breeding boxes on the corresponding loading stations 32 using the following method: The automatic loading machine 3 drives multiple loading stations 32 to rotate intermittently through its own rotating mechanism 31. This intermittent rotation is a periodic rotation of the automatic loading machine 3 according to the number of loading stations 32, so that the position of the loading station 32 coincides with the position of the loading station 32 in the previous cycle with each unit angle rotation. After each unit angle rotation, when the box inlet opening 33 on the side of the loading station 32 is opposite to the conveying direction of the first conveyor 2, the rotating mechanism 31 pauses, and the first conveyor 2 continues to convey the breeding boxes forward. Under the conveying inertia of the first conveyor 2, the foremost breeding box enters the box inlet opening 33 of the loading station 32. The rotating mechanism 31 continues to work and repeats this operation so that all the loading stations 32 on the automatic loading machine 3 can be loaded with breeding boxes.
[0039] Quantitative feeding: The automatic palletizer 3 rotates each palletizing station 32 through the rotating mechanism 31 to face the feed hopper in turn. The feeding mechanism 4 delivers the feed quantitatively into the breeding box. The automatic palletizer 3 further rotates each palletizing station 32 to face the second conveyor 5 and lowers the corresponding breeding box onto the second conveyor 5 for transmission. The breeding box containing feed faces the screw feeder 6 through the second conveyor 5 and the screw feeder 6 fills the breeding box with a quantitative amount of substrate.
[0040] The feeding mechanism 4 delivers a fixed amount of feed into the breeding box using the following method: The automatic loading machine 3 drives multiple loading stations 32 to rotate intermittently via its own rotating mechanism 31. When the opening of the breeding box at the loading station is aligned with the downward-sloping discharge port 41 of the feeding mechanism 4, the feeding mechanism 4 is activated to open the discharge port 41. The feed falls into the breeding box from the discharge port 41 by gravity. During the feeding process, the head scale on the loading station 32 simultaneously weighs the breeding box until the total weight of the breeding box and the feed inside reaches the target. Then, the feeding mechanism 4 is paused to close the discharge port 41. Thus, by setting up a head scale, the function of weighing and verifying the amount of feed added to the breeding box is achieved.
[0041] The corresponding breeding boxes are placed onto the second conveyor 5 for transmission using the following method: The automatic loading machine 3 drives multiple loading stations 32 to rotate through its own rotating mechanism 31 until the breeding boxes on the loading station 32 are facing the second conveyor 5. Then, the extension at the rear of the loading station 32 is activated, and the extended end of the extension pushes the breeding box onto the second conveyor 5.
[0042] Compaction inside the breeding box: When the breeding box is transported to the compaction mechanism 7 by the second conveyor 5, the opening of the breeding box is aligned with the compaction end of the compaction mechanism 7. The compaction end of the compaction mechanism 7 is then used to compact the raw materials and substrate inside the breeding box, thereby expanding the usable space for the subsequent addition of larvae into the breeding box.
[0043] Insect release and capping: As the breeding box continues to be transported forward by the second conveyor 5, a certain amount of bat moth larvae are manually put into the breeding box; the breeding box containing larvae is transported by the second conveyor 5 to the cap feeding and capping machine 8, which places a sealing cap on the opening of the breeding box and tightens it, thereby realizing the function of dispensing and cultivating bat moth larvae.
[0044] The cap-feeding and cap-closing machine 8 places and fastens the sealing cap to the opening of the breeding box using the following method: the cap-feeding and cap-closing machine 8 uses a cap-removing suction cup to pick up the sealing cap and place it on the opening of the breeding box. The cap-feeding and cap-closing machine 8 then uses a pressing mechanism to press the sealing cap down onto the breeding box. In this way, the sealing cap is installed at the opening of the breeding box by the cap-feeding and cap-closing machine 8, so that the temperature inside the breeding box is constant, and it is also convenient to carry out small-batch culture to improve the survival rate.
[0045] In summary, the efficient method for separating ghost moth larvae of the present invention mainly includes three steps: tray preparation, quantitative feeding, and larvae placement and sealing. In the tray preparation step, the rearing boxes are individually fed and transported forward using a specific structure and method. Quantitative feeding involves filling the rearing boxes with feed and substrate using a specific structure and method. In the larvae placement and sealing step, ghost moth larvae are manually placed into the rearing boxes containing feed and substrate. Finally, a sealing lid is installed at the opening of the rearing box to create a relatively constant temperature environment with suitable space and nutrients, thereby improving the survival rate of ghost moth larvae in a single rearing box. Furthermore, the above method is largely based on equipment structure and can effectively replace manual larvae separation and rearing, thus improving the efficiency of larvae separation and rearing and increasing the survival rate of ghost moth larvae.
[0046] The embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Based on the above description of the present invention, and using common technical knowledge and conventional means in the field, the present invention can be modified, replaced or combined in various other forms without departing from the basic technical idea of the present invention, and all such modifications, replacements or combinations fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
