Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of aquaculture, specifically to a multi-silkworm tray rotating silkworm rearing device. Background Technology

[0002] Silkworms are holometabolous insects, undergoing four developmental stages in one generation: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Silkworm larvae (also known as ant-like silkworms) go through five instars and four molts from hatching to cocooning. Based on the growth and development characteristics of silkworms, their rearing period can be divided into two phases: the first phase involves raising young silkworms together (1st-2nd instars), with a rearing cycle of 7-8 days; the second phase involves raising older silkworms (3rd-5th instars), with a rearing cycle of 15-19 days. Towards the end of the 5th instar, the silkworm's appetite gradually decreases, its thorax becomes transparent, its head and thorax sway from side to side, and it begins spinning silk. This is the optimal time for cocooning, and the cocooning process can begin. The cocooning cycle takes 4-7 days.

[0003] Traditional silkworm rearing involves setting up multiple silkworm trays on a silkworm rack with fixed positions. However, as the silkworms grow, it is necessary to regularly place mulberry leaves on the trays, clean and disinfect them, and replace the trays. If all these operations are done manually, the staff needs to move to the corresponding trays to perform the operations, which is inefficient and troublesome.

[0004] Therefore, a multi-silkworm tray rotating silkworm rearing device is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] One objective of this invention is to provide a multi-tray rotating silkworm rearing device, which, through the coordinated use of a moving auxiliary mechanism and silkworm trays on a placement rack, quickly moves the silkworm trays or the silkworms on the gauze, making it easier to operate and use.

[0006] This objective is achieved using the following technical solution:

[0007] A multi-tray rotating silkworm rearing device includes a placement frame and a moving auxiliary mechanism. A conveyor chain is installed on the placement frame, and several placement plates for placing silkworm trays are mounted on the conveyor chain. A horizontal component connects the placement frame and the conveyor chain, ensuring that the placement plates remain horizontal as the chain moves. The conveyor chain moves the placement plates from top to bottom, maintaining a horizontal position throughout the movement. Therefore, during use, the position of the silkworm trays can be adjusted while keeping them horizontal, allowing operators to manage multiple trays on the placement frame from the same location, thus improving efficiency.

[0008] Generally, when cleaning silkworm trays or moving silkworms to another tray for expansion, two partially overlapping movable gauze sheets are placed on the tray, and mulberry leaves are laid on the gauze sheets. The silkworms in the tray will pass through the partially overlapping area of ​​the two movable gauze sheets and be positioned on top of them. In the current operation, the operator needs to move the two movable gauze sheets and the silkworms on them to the required positions, which is cumbersome and inefficient.

[0009] To address this, the inventors have improved the structure of the movable gauze, combining it with the silkworm tray and the moving auxiliary mechanism, enabling the moving auxiliary mechanism to automatically move the movable gauze to the required position, thus achieving rapid cleaning or rapid expansion of the silkworm tray.

[0010] Specifically, the silkworm tray includes two partially overlapping movable gauze sheets, each with a movable component on both sides. The moving auxiliary mechanism includes a first main body and movable components. The first main body has two conveyor plates. When it is necessary to move the silkworms in the tray, the two movable gauze sheets are first placed on the tray with partial overlap, and mulberry leaves are laid on top of the gauze sheets. After laying the leaves, wait for the silkworms to be positioned on top of the gauze sheets. Once this is complete, adjust the moving auxiliary mechanism so that the two conveyor plates are positioned on either side of the tray. The moving auxiliary mechanism also includes an adjustment component that acts on the movable components, causing the two movable components to move the two movable gauze sheets onto the two conveyor plates.

[0011] Meanwhile, for the multiple silkworm trays on the placement rack, since the placement plate can move up and down under the action of the conveyor chain, when the placement plate is at the top or bottom, it can be directly located between two conveyor plates, which is convenient for operation and use.

[0012] Specifically, the moving and adjusting components can have various structures. In this device, a preferred structure is provided, wherein the moving component includes connecting plates located on both sides of the moving gauze, with several connecting posts arranged side by side on the connecting plates. Placement slots are provided on both sides of the silkworm tray, and the connecting plates on both sides of the moving gauze are respectively located in two placement slots. The adjusting component includes four gear discs, each corresponding to a moving component on both sides of the two moving gauzes. The four gear discs mesh with the connecting posts of their respective moving components, and the rotation of the gear discs drives the moving gauze to move into two conveying plates. Preferably, the distance between the two conveying plates on the first main body is the same as the length of the silkworm tray, and the length of the conveying plate is the same as the length of the silkworm tray.

[0013] Therefore, during use, when the placement plate rotates between the two conveyor plates, the placement plate is positioned between the two conveyor plates and in contact with each other. At this time, the gear disk rotates, and the gears of the gear disk act between the adjacent connecting posts on the connecting plate, causing the connecting plate and the connecting posts to move together in the placement slot toward the corresponding conveyor plate until the two moving gauze pieces are respectively on the two conveyor plates.

[0014] Based on this, preferably, the conveyor plate is provided with several rotating rods, all of which are capable of circumferential rotation. When the moving gauze is located on the conveyor plate, the rotating rods on the conveyor plate rotate circumferentially, further causing the moving gauze to move on the rotating rods and position it in the middle, thus preventing it from falling off when the moving auxiliary mechanism moves the silkworm.

[0015] Furthermore, a second body is disposed within the first body, and an adjustment component is connected to the second body. The first body wraps around the second body, and the first and second bodies can rotate relative to each other. The first body drives the conveyor plate to rotate, and the second body drives the adjustment component to rotate. During use, it can be adjusted as needed. When the placement plate rotates between the two conveyor plates, the second body is rotated to align the adjustment component with the placement plate.

[0016] Meanwhile, a telescopic rod is connected to the second main body, and a mulberry leaf inlet tube is connected to the telescopic rod. When it is necessary to insert mulberry leaves, the second main body is rotated so that the mulberry leaf inlet tube aligns with the placement plate, and then the mulberry leaves are inserted.

[0017] Compared with existing devices, this device can be used quickly and efficiently by moving the silkworm trays or moving the silkworms to expand the rearing area, thanks to the auxiliary mechanism and the silkworm trays on the placement frame. This improves operational efficiency.

[0018] Furthermore, both the first and second main bodies are capable of vertical extension and retraction. The first main body is connected to the two conveyor plates via two first adjusting rods. These first adjusting rods can rotate on the first main body, causing the conveyor plates to change from a horizontal to an inclined state. When it is necessary to place silkworms from one conveyor plate onto another silkworm tray, the first adjusting rods can be rotated to tilt the conveyor plate, thus placing the silkworms onto the other tray.

[0019] Preferably, it includes multiple placement racks and moving auxiliary mechanisms, with silkworms on silkworm trays or moving gauze being cross-transferred between adjacent moving auxiliary mechanisms via rotating rods on a conveyor plate.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0021] This invention relates to a multi-tray rotating silkworm rearing device. The moving auxiliary mechanism of this device can directly move silkworms from one tray to another, resulting in high operating efficiency and making it more suitable for multi-tray rotating silkworm rearing devices.

[0022] When moving silkworms, the mobile auxiliary mechanism can directly expand the seating area through two conveyor plates and move the silkworms to the next silkworm rack without the need for manual expansion, making it easier to operate and use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of the present invention are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0035] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up", "down", "vertical", "horizontal", "high", "low", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this invention.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] A multi-tray rotating silkworm rearing device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a placement rack 1, a conveyor chain 3 is provided on the placement rack 1, and a plurality of placement plates 2 for placing silkworm trays 16 are provided on the conveyor chain 3. A horizontal component is connected between the placement rack 1 and the conveyor chain 3. The horizontal component keeps the placement plates 2 in a horizontal state as they move with the chain. The horizontal component is an existing structure, as long as it can keep the placement plates horizontal.

[0038] In some embodiments, the horizontal component is a positioning plate with a groove and a positioning rod connected to the positioning plate. The positioning rod is connected to the placement plate. During the process of the conveyor chain moving the placement plate, the groove and the positioning rod keep the placement plate in a horizontal state.

[0039] In some embodiments, the horizontal component is a triangular structure that is hinged to each other. The triangular structure includes a first hinge, a second hinge, and a third hinge that are connected in sequence. The placement plate is hinged to both ends of the first hinge, and the upper ends of the second and third hinges are hinged to the conveyor chain. The gravity of the placement plate and the triangular structure ensure that the conveyor chain remains horizontal during the conveying process. The conveyor chain is a closed chain structure.

[0040] This device also includes a movement auxiliary mechanism and a movable gauze 13, the movement auxiliary mechanism being as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the moving auxiliary mechanism includes a first main body 4, an adjustment component, and a moving part 5. The moving part is located at the lower end of the first main body 4 and is used to move the first main body, allowing the device to be moved to the position where the silkworms or silkworm rack on the silkworm tray need to be moved. Two conveyor plates 7 are provided on the first main body 4. Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes four gear disks 10, which correspond to the moving components on both sides of the two moving gauze 13 respectively. The four gear disks 10 are engaged with the connecting posts 15 of the corresponding moving components. The rotation of the gear disks 10 drives the moving gauze 13 to move into the two conveyor plates 7.

[0041] Moving gauze, such as Figure 4As shown, movable components are provided on both sides of the movable gauze 13; the movable components include connecting plates 14 located on both sides of the movable gauze 13, and several connecting posts 15 arranged side by side are provided on the connecting plates 14. Preferably, the distance between the two conveying plates 7 on the first main body 4 is the same as the length of the silkworm tray 16, and the length of the conveying plate 7 is the same as the length of the silkworm tray 16.

[0042] When expanding the tray, first, place the two movable gauze sheets 13 overlapping on the silkworm tray, and then lay mulberry leaves on the two movable gauze sheets. After all the silkworms are on the movable gauze sheets, move the moving auxiliary mechanism below the placement frame 1. Under the action of the conveyor chain, the placement plate moves. When the placement plate moves between the two conveyor plates 7, the silkworm tray is located between the two conveyor plates, so that the four gear discs 10 of the adjusting component are located at the four corners of the silkworm tray. Figure 5 As shown, four gear discs correspond to the four connecting plates of the two movable gauze sheets, and the gears of the gear discs mesh with the area between two adjacent connecting posts. When the gear discs rotate, they act on the connecting posts, causing the two movable gauze sheets to move towards the two conveyor plates, respectively. Figure 6 As shown, the movement continues until the moving gauze is completely moved onto the conveyor plate, completing the movement. The moving auxiliary mechanism then moves the silkworms on the moving gauze to the other two silkworm trays, and moves the two moving gauzes on the two conveyor plates to the two silkworm trays respectively, completing the expansion of the seating area.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the silkworm tray 16 has placement grooves 161 on both sides, and the connecting plates 14 on both sides of the movable gauze 13 are respectively located in the two placement grooves 161. In use, first place the connecting plates on both sides of the movable gauze into the two placement grooves. After placement, the upper ends of the connecting posts 15 on the placement plates are outside the placement grooves. This facilitates the movement of the movable gauze by the gear disc and also facilitates the engagement of the gear disc with the connecting posts.

[0045] The silkworm rearing room includes multiple placement racks 1 and multiple moving auxiliary mechanisms. Silkworms on silkworm trays 16 or moving gauze 13 are cross-transferred between adjacent moving auxiliary mechanisms via rotating rods 71 ​​on conveyor plates 7. When it is necessary to move silkworms or silkworm trays from one moving auxiliary mechanism to another, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the conveyor plate 7 on the other moving auxiliary mechanism is located below the conveyor plate of the first moving auxiliary mechanism, and the conveyor plate of the first moving auxiliary mechanism crosses the gap between the rotating rods of the conveyor plate of the other moving auxiliary mechanism from bottom to top. During the upward movement, the silkworm tray or silkworm on the first moving auxiliary mechanism is moved to the conveyor plate on the other moving auxiliary mechanism, thus completing the transfer.

[0046] Example 3

[0047] Based on the above embodiment, the conveyor plate 7 is provided with a plurality of rotating rods 71, all of which are capable of circumferential rotation. When the rotating rods 71 ​​rotate, the silkworm disc or movable gauze on them can move on the rotating rods.

[0048] In some embodiments, a second body 8 is disposed within the first body 4, and an adjustment component is connected to the second body 8. The first body 4 wraps around the second body 8, and the first body 4 and the second body 8 are capable of relative rotation. Both the first body 4 and the second body 8 are capable of vertical extension and retraction. This facilitates adjustment and use.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first main body 4 is connected to the two conveyor plates 7 by two first adjusting rods 6. The first adjusting rods 6 can rotate on the first main body 4, causing the conveyor plates 7 to change from a horizontal state to an inclined state. When it is necessary to place the silkworms on the moving gauze into another silkworm tray, when the moving auxiliary mechanism moves to the silkworm tray, the first adjusting rods are rotated to change the conveyor plates 7 from a horizontal state to an inclined state, thereby placing the silkworms on the conveyor plates into another silkworm tray.

[0050] Example 4

[0051] Based on the above embodiment, the second main body 8 is connected to the gear disk 10 through the second adjusting rod 9. When the second main body 8 rotates, it drives the second adjusting rod 9 and the gear disk to rotate. A telescopic rod 11 is connected to the second main body 8, and a mulberry leaf inlet tube 12 is connected to the telescopic rod 11.

[0052] When mulberry leaves need to be added to the silkworm tray, move the auxiliary mechanism to the corresponding silkworm tray and rotate the second main body so that the mulberry leaf inlet tube 12 is directly above the silkworm tray.

[0053] In some embodiments, the placement plate for placing the silkworm tray includes a central rod, with several small rotating rods on both sides of the central rod. The distance between two adjacent small rotating rods is the same as the distance between two adjacent rotating rods 71 ​​on the conveyor plate 7. When it is necessary to move the silkworm tray, the tray can be moved directly by the rotating rods crossing through the gaps between the small rotating rods.

Furthermore, the term "connection" used in this document, unless otherwise specified, can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection via other components.
