Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to black soldier fly farming equipment, specifically to an integrated black soldier fly farming device. Background Technology
[0002] Black soldier flies (Hermetia illucens) belong to the family Hermetidae in the order Diptera. Also known as the bright-spotted flat-horned soldier fly, they have a wide distribution, primarily covering tropical, temperate, and mid-latitude regions of the Americas. Black soldier fly larvae have a broad diet, mainly feeding on decaying organic matter, livestock excrement, and kitchen waste. They efficiently decompose and transform these organic materials, converting them into the proteins they need, thus achieving effective resource utilization. Notably, the excrement (fly droppings) processed by black soldier fly larvae is rich in nutrients and can serve as a high-quality organic fertilizer with broad application prospects in agriculture and other fields.
[0003] The black soldier fly larvae go through four stages of growth: egg, larva, pupa, and adult, each with a different living environment. Therefore, different spaces are needed to meet their growth requirements, resulting in a large area required for cultivation and increased costs. If each growth stage is cultivated independently using different devices, it not only occupies a lot of space but also requires transportation, severely impacting cultivation efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems and provide an integrated black soldier fly farming equipment. This integrated farming equipment combines all the growth stages of black soldier flies together, which not only reduces the space occupied by the device, but also eliminates the need for intermediate transportation, thus improving farming efficiency.
[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A black soldier fly integrated breeding equipment includes an integrated breeding box and larval chamber, pupa chamber and adult chamber set in the integrated breeding box;
[0007] The larval chamber, pupa chamber, and adult chamber are connected by transfer channels in pairs, and each transfer channel is equipped with a switch structure;
[0008] The larval chamber is equipped with a cyclic breeding mechanism for cyclic breeding of larvae. The cyclic breeding mechanism includes multiple cyclic breeding boxes, a cyclic drive mechanism for driving the cyclic breeding boxes to move cyclically in a vertical plane, and an insect repelling mechanism for causing the larvae to automatically transfer from the cyclic breeding boxes to the pupal chamber.
[0009] The adult chamber is equipped with an egg-collecting mechanism for adults to lay eggs, and an egg-laying mechanism for transferring the eggs from the egg-collecting mechanism to the rearing box in the larval chamber below.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the side wall of the larval chamber is provided with an entrance and exit to facilitate the placement and removal of the recirculating breeding box, the feeding of feed, or the removal of residual materials from the recirculating breeding box, which are then collected and sent to subsequent deep processing.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the pupal chamber surrounds the three sides of the larval chamber, and the adult chamber is located above both the larval chamber and the pupal chamber.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the side walls of the larval chamber, pupal chamber, and adult chamber are provided with ventilation holes or ventilation windows; the integrated breeding box is provided with a temperature control system for regulating the temperature in the larval chamber, pupal chamber, and adult chamber, and a humidity control system for regulating the humidity in the larval chamber, pupal chamber, and adult chamber, so as to maintain the indoor temperature and humidity within a suitable range for larval growth.
[0013] Furthermore, the integrated breeding box is equipped with a ventilation system to accelerate airflow in the larval chamber, pupa chamber, and adult chamber.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cyclic drive mechanism includes a cyclic drive motor and a cyclic transmission assembly, wherein the cyclic drive motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate of the larval chamber;
[0015] The circulating transmission assembly includes a circulating transmission chain and circulating transmission sprockets, with two circulating transmission sprockets arranged vertically; the circulating transmission chain is disposed between the two circulating transmission sprockets.
[0016] Multiple recirculating aquaculture boxes are evenly connected to the recirculating transmission chain via mounting frames.
[0017] With the above structure, driven by the circulating drive motor, multiple circulating breeding boxes move up and down in a vertical plane along the circulating transmission chain, so as to move the circulating breeding boxes to different transfer channels and complete the entire breeding operation in a cyclical and orderly manner.
[0018] Furthermore, the mounting frame includes a first mounting frame and a second mounting frame. The first mounting frame is fixedly connected to the circulating transmission chain, one end of the second mounting frame is rotatably connected to the first mounting frame, and the other end of the second mounting frame is connected to the circulating aquaculture box.
[0019] Furthermore, the other end of the second mounting frame is connected to the recirculating aquaculture box via a longitudinal sliding structure. This longitudinal sliding structure includes a sliding groove and a sliding part. The sliding groove is disposed on the second mounting frame, and the sliding part is disposed on the top of the recirculating aquaculture box. In this way, the recirculating aquaculture box can be removed from the recirculating transmission chain by an automated mechanism (e.g., a robotic arm) to allow for the addition of feed or the removal of residual materials from the recirculating aquaculture box, which are then collected and sent for further processing.
[0020] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top of the adult insect chamber is equipped with an intelligent supplemental light and an iodine-tungsten lamp; the intelligent supplemental light can control the lighting time according to the light sensor, and can also automatically adjust the brightness as needed; the iodine-tungsten lamp can improve the mating rate and egg-laying rate of black soldier fly adults.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the adult insect chamber is further provided with a water tray; the water tray is connected to a water conduit and a liquid level controller, and the water level in the tray is controlled by the liquid level controller to realize automatic water supply and meet the water needs of the adult insects.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the larval chamber is located to the side of the pupal chamber, and the switching structure of the transfer channel between the larval chamber and the pupal chamber includes a lifting gate and a gate driving mechanism.
[0023] Furthermore, the side wall between the larval chamber and the pupal chamber is provided with a suction cup electromagnet and a positioning component. The positioning component includes two positioning wedges arranged vertically opposite each other. The end of the circulating breeding box near the channel is provided with a positioning part that cooperates with the positioning wedges. The circulating breeding box is made of magnetic material or has a structure with magnetic material.
[0024] Furthermore, the gate drive mechanism includes a gate drive motor and a gate transmission assembly. The gate drive motor is fixedly installed on the side wall between the larva chamber and the pupa chamber. The gate transmission assembly includes a gate transmission rack and a gate transmission gear. The gate transmission rack is fixedly connected to the lifting gate, and the gate transmission gear is fixedly connected to the gate drive motor.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the two opposite side walls of the recirculating breeding box are provided with larvae outlets and outlet switch mechanisms. The outlet switch mechanism includes an outlet switch plate and an outlet switch drive mechanism. The outlet switch drive mechanism includes an outlet switch drive motor and an outlet switch transmission assembly. The outlet switch drive motor is composed of a gate drive motor. The outlet switch transmission assembly includes an outlet switch transmission gear set, which includes a driving gear and a driven gear. The driving gear is composed of the gate drive gear.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper part of the recirculating breeding box is provided with a cover plate for covering the material in the recirculating breeding box during transfer. The cover plate is automatically closed by a drive mechanism. With the above structure, when it is necessary to separate young black soldier fly larvae for commercial use, the drive mechanism drives the cover plate to move down and cover the material in the recirculating breeding box, while simultaneously opening the larval outlet of the recirculating breeding box aligned with the transfer channel. This causes the black soldier fly larvae to automatically crawl towards one side of the transfer channel due to lack of oxygen and fall into the pupal chamber below the transfer channel.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the top of the recirculating aquaculture box is provided with a window and a window switch mechanism, the window switch mechanism constituting the insect repellent mechanism, the window switch mechanism including a window switch plate and a window switch drive mechanism;

There are two skylight transmission pulleys; one is coaxially connected to the driven gear, and the other is coaxially connected to the skylight transmission gear. The skylight transmission belt connects the two skylight transmission pulleys. The skylight transmission rack is fixedly connected to the window switch plate. Furthermore, since a window switch plate is installed inside the breeding box to reduce oxygen, the window switch plate must be tightly fitted to the material with good sealing to prevent oxygen from entering the breeding box, so that the insects can automatically move out when oxygen is insufficient.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the egg-collecting mechanism includes a plurality of parallel egg-collecting plates; the egg-discharging mechanism includes a vibrator for causing the egg-collecting plates to vibrate and / or a blower for blowing the eggs down.

[0042] To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0043] See Figures 1-3 The integrated black soldier fly breeding equipment of this embodiment includes an integrated breeding box 1 and larval chamber 2, pupal chamber 3, and adult chamber 4 arranged in the integrated breeding box 1; the pupal chamber 3 surrounds the three sides of the larval chamber 2, and the adult chamber 4 is located above both the larval chamber 2 and the pupal chamber 3; transfer channels are provided between each pair of the larval chamber 2, the pupal chamber 3, and the adult chamber 4, and each transfer channel is equipped with a switch structure.
[0044] See Figures 1-3The larval chamber 2 has an entrance / exit 5 on its side wall for taking in and putting out the recirculating breeding box 6, adding feed, or removing residual materials from the recirculating breeding box 6, which are then collected and sent for further processing. Alternatively, the bottom of the recirculating breeding box 6 is equipped with wheels, allowing it to be pushed out of the larval chamber 2 when feeding or discharging is required, and feeding or discharging can be done manually or automatically.
[0045] Specifically, the side walls of the larval chamber 2, pupal chamber 3, and adult chamber 4 are all provided with ventilation holes or ventilation windows; the integrated breeding box 1 is equipped with a temperature control system for regulating the temperature in the larval chamber 2, pupal chamber 3, and adult chamber 4, and a humidity control system for regulating the humidity in the larval chamber 2, pupal chamber 3, and adult chamber 4, so as to maintain the indoor temperature and humidity within a suitable range for larval growth.
[0046] Furthermore, the integrated breeding box 1 is equipped with a ventilation system for accelerating the airflow in the larval chamber 2, the pupa chamber 3, and the adult chamber 4.
[0047] Furthermore, the top of the adult chamber 4 is equipped with an intelligent supplemental light and an iodine-tungsten lamp; the intelligent supplemental light can control the lighting time according to the light sensor, and can also automatically adjust the brightness as needed; the iodine-tungsten lamp can improve the mating rate and egg-laying rate of black soldier fly adults.
[0048] Furthermore, the adult insect chamber is also equipped with a water tray; the water tray is connected to a water pipe and a liquid level controller, and the water level in the tray is controlled by the liquid level controller to achieve automatic water supply and meet the water needs of the adult insects.
[0049] See Figures 2-4 The larval chamber 2 is equipped with a cyclic breeding mechanism for cyclic breeding of larvae. This cyclic breeding mechanism includes multiple cyclic breeding boxes 6, a cyclic drive mechanism for driving the cyclic breeding boxes 6 to move cyclically in a vertical plane, and an insect-repelling mechanism for automatically transferring larvae from the cyclic breeding boxes 6 to the pupal chamber 3. The cyclic drive mechanism includes a cyclic drive motor 7 and a cyclic transmission assembly. The cyclic drive motor 7 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate of the larval chamber 2. The cyclic transmission assembly includes a cyclic transmission chain 8, a cyclic transmission sprocket 9, and a synchronous shaft. There are two sets of cyclic transmission chains 8 and cyclic transmission sprockets 9, with two cyclic transmission sprockets 9 in each set, arranged vertically. The cyclic transmission chain 8 is positioned between the two cyclic transmission sprockets 9 in the same set. There are two synchronous shafts, each connected between the two sets of cyclic transmission sprockets 9. The multiple cyclic breeding boxes 6 are evenly connected to the two sets of cyclic transmission chains 8 via mounting frames.
[0050] With the above structure, driven by the circulating drive motor 7, multiple circulating breeding boxes 6 move up and down in a vertical plane along the circulating transmission chain 8, so as to move the circulating breeding boxes 6 to different transfer channels and complete the entire breeding operation in a cyclical and orderly manner.
[0051] See Figures 5-7 The mounting frame includes a first mounting frame 10 and a second mounting frame 11. The first mounting frame 10 is fixedly connected to the circulating transmission chain 8. One end of the second mounting frame 11 is rotatably connected to the first mounting frame 10, and the other end of the second mounting frame 11 is connected to the circulating aquaculture box 6.
[0052] See Figures 4-6 The larval chamber 2 is located to the side of the pupal chamber 3. The side wall between the larval chamber 2 and the pupal chamber 3 is provided with multiple vertically arranged transfer ports, and each transfer port is provided with a lifting gate 12 and a gate driving mechanism.
[0053] See Figures 5-7 The side wall between the larval chamber 2 and the pupa chamber 3 is provided with multiple sets of vertically arranged suction cup electromagnets 13 and multiple sets of vertically arranged positioning components. Each positioning component includes two positioning wedges 14 arranged vertically opposite each other. The end of the circulating breeding box 6 near the channel is provided with a positioning part 6-1 that cooperates with the positioning wedges 14. The circulating breeding box 6 is made of magnetic material or has a structure with magnetic material.
[0054] See Figures 5-7 The gate drive mechanism includes a gate drive motor 15 and a gate transmission assembly. The gate drive motor 15 is fixedly installed on the side wall between the larva chamber 2 and the pupa chamber 3. The gate transmission assembly includes a gate transmission rack 16 and a gate transmission gear 17. The gate transmission rack 16 is fixedly connected to the lifting gate 12, and the gate transmission gear 17 is fixedly connected to the gate drive motor 15.
[0055] See Figures 5-7 The side wall of the circulating breeding box 6 is provided with a larvae outlet and an outlet switch mechanism. The outlet switch mechanism includes an outlet switch plate 18 and an outlet switch drive mechanism. The outlet switch drive mechanism includes an outlet switch drive motor and an outlet switch transmission assembly. The outlet switch drive motor is composed of a gate drive motor 15. The outlet switch transmission assembly includes an outlet switch transmission gear set, which includes a driving gear and a driven gear 19. The driving gear is composed of the gate transmission gear 17. The driven gear 19 is fixedly connected to the outlet switch plate 18 through a rotating shaft.
[0056] Furthermore, the recirculating breeding box is equipped with a cover plate on top for covering the material in the recirculating breeding box during transfer. This cover plate is automatically closed by a drive mechanism. With the above structure, when it is necessary to separate young black soldier fly larvae for commercial use, the drive mechanism drives the cover plate to move down and cover the material in the recirculating breeding box, while simultaneously opening the larval outlet of the recirculating breeding box. This causes the black soldier fly larvae to automatically crawl towards one side of the transfer channel due to lack of oxygen and fall into the pupal chamber below the transfer channel.
[0057] See Figures 5-7 Alternatively, the top of the circulating aquaculture box 6 may be provided with a window and a window switch mechanism. The window switch mechanism constitutes the insect repellent mechanism. The window switch mechanism includes a window switch plate 20 and a window switch drive mechanism. The window switch drive mechanism includes a window switch drive motor and a window switch transmission assembly. The window switch drive motor is composed of a gate drive motor 15. The window switch transmission assembly includes a skylight transmission rack 21, a skylight transmission gear 22, a skylight transmission belt 23, and a skylight transmission pulley 24. There are two skylight transmission pulleys 24. One skylight transmission pulley 24 is coaxially connected to the driven gear 19, and the other skylight transmission pulley 24 is coaxially connected to the skylight transmission gear 22. The skylight transmission belt 23 is connected between the two skylight transmission pulleys 24. The skylight transmission rack 21 is fixedly connected to the window switch plate 20. Furthermore, since a skylight is installed inside the breeding box to reduce oxygen, the skylight in this embodiment must be installed close to the material and have good sealing to prevent oxygen from entering the breeding box, so that the insects can automatically move to the pupal chamber 3 when they are lacking oxygen.
[0058] With the above structure, when it is necessary to transfer larvae to the pupal chamber 3, the circulating drive mechanism moves all the circulating breeding boxes 6 to the transfer port between the larva chamber 2 and the pupal chamber 3. At this time, the outlet switch plate 18 of the circulating breeding box 6 is opposite to the lifting gate 12 of the channel between the larva chamber 2 and the pupal chamber 3. Then, the suction electromagnet 13 is energized to generate magnetic force, attracting the circulating breeding box 6, so that all the circulating breeding boxes 6 are close to the corresponding transfer port. At the same time, the positioning part 6-1 is guided by two positioning wedges 14 arranged vertically opposite each other, so that the circulating breeding box 6 stops at the designated position, achieving a relatively precise docking, so that the larvae can be smoothly transferred to the pupal chamber 3. At this time, the driven gear 19 on the circulating breeding box 6 is close to and aligns with the gate drive gear 17. The gate motor 15 engages to establish a power connection with the recirculating breeding box 6. The gate motor 15 drives the lifting gate 12 to rise, exposing the transfer opening between the larval chamber 2 and the channel. Simultaneously, the window switch drive assembly drives the window switch plate 20 to cover the window, and the outlet switch drive assembly drives the outlet switch plate 18 to flip outwards, using it as a transfer bridge for the larvae to move from the transfer bridge to the pupal chamber 3. Because the window is covered, the oxygen in the recirculating breeding box 6 gradually decreases, causing the black soldier fly larvae to automatically crawl towards the transfer opening due to oxygen deprivation, thus entering the pupal chamber 3. Alternatively, the light in the adult chamber 4 can be turned on, illuminating the channel and attracting phototactic black soldier fly larvae from the recirculating breeding box 6 to the channel, where they fall into the pupal chamber 3. In this process, three different operations are simultaneously achieved through a single gate motor 15, simplifying the structure and reducing costs. Furthermore, the use of a suction cup electromagnet 13 and positioning components allows for a power connection with the recirculating breeding box 6 when needed, which is quite ingenious.
[0059] Furthermore, the switching structure of the transfer channel located between the adult chamber 4 and the larval chamber 2 includes a larval-adult separation door and a larval-adult separation drive motor.
[0060] Furthermore, the switching structure of the transfer channel located between the adult chamber 4 and the pupa chamber 3 includes a pupa separation door and a pupa separation drive motor.
[0061] Furthermore, the adult chamber 4 is equipped with an egg-collecting mechanism for adults to lay eggs and an egg-laying mechanism for transferring the eggs on the egg-collecting mechanism to the rearing box in the larval chamber 2 below. The egg-collecting mechanism is located directly above the transfer channel between the adult chamber 4 and the larval chamber 2.
[0062] See Figure 2-4 The egg-collecting mechanism includes a plurality of parallel egg-collecting plates 25; the egg-dropping mechanism includes a vibrator for causing the egg-collecting plates 25 to vibrate and / or a blower for blowing the eggs off.
[0063] Furthermore, a lower egg chamber 26 is provided at the transfer channel between the adult chamber 4 and the larval chamber 2. The inner cavity of the lower egg chamber 26 is provided with a switch structure for connecting or separating the adult chamber 4 and the larval chamber 2.
[0064] See Figure 1-4 The working principle of the above-mentioned integrated black soldier fly farming equipment is as follows:
[0065] During operation, the first batch of insect eggs and feed are placed into the recirculating breeding box 6 by manual or automatic feeding mechanism. The eggs hatch and grow in the recirculating breeding box 6. When it is necessary to transfer the larvae to the pupal chamber 3, the larvae have reached the designated stage. Before the corresponding recirculating breeding box 6 is moved to the transfer channel between the larva chamber 2 and the pupal chamber 3 by the recirculating drive mechanism, the switch structure of the transfer channel turns open. The insect-driving mechanism drives the larvae from the recirculating breeding box 6 through the channel to the pupal chamber 3. After this process, the switch structure of the transfer channel turns closed. By following the above operation, commercial larvae or pre-pupae larvae can be obtained. Then, the waste material in the recirculating breeding box 6 with transferred larvae is removed by manual or automatic feeding mechanism to start a new breeding cycle. Specifically, the above-mentioned automatic feeding mechanism and automatic feeding mechanism can refer to existing technology, and their purpose is to automatically feed materials into the designated containers and automatically remove materials from the designated containers. Furthermore, the automatic feeding mechanism in this embodiment includes a feeding gate plate, a feeding switch drive mechanism, and a feeding conveyor belt mechanism. The feeding gate plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of the recirculating aquaculture box 6 and forms the bottom surface of the recirculating aquaculture box 6. During feeding, the feeding switch drive mechanism drives the feeding gate plate to flip down, opening the bottom of the recirculating aquaculture box 6, so that the waste in the recirculating aquaculture box 6 automatically falls to the feeding conveyor belt mechanism below, and then the feeding conveyor belt mechanism transports the waste out for unified collection, thereby realizing automatic feeding.
[0066] After the pupae emerge from their cocoons as adults, the switch structure of the transfer channel between the adult chamber 4 and the pupal chamber 3 is opened, and the light in the adult chamber 4 is turned on. The adults, attracted by light, fly into the adult chamber 4, mate there, and lay eggs in the egg collection mechanism. After a certain period of time, the switch structure of the transfer channel between the adult chamber 4 and the larval chamber 2 is opened again. The empty circulating breeding box 6 is moved below the transfer channel by the circulating drive mechanism, and the eggs from the egg collection mechanism are transferred to the empty circulating breeding box 6 below by the egg-laying mechanism. The eggs hatch and grow in the circulating breeding box 6, and are then transferred to the pupal chamber 3. By repeating the above operation, larvae can be continuously obtained.
[0067] The above are preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the above content. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
