Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bee breeding, and in particular to an indoor pet bee breeding device. Background Art

[0002] Honey bees are semi-domesticated, social beneficial insects that provide bee products for humans and maintain ecological balance. They are animals loved by people all over the world. Usually, honey bees are raised in the wild. Currently, there are few cases of bees being raised indoors as pets. Generally, honey bees are raised outdoors, which has certain requirements for the site. If there are no cages specifically for bee raising, it is impossible to meet people's demand for diversified pets and people who like to raise pet bees cannot raise bees.

[0003] Since bees have a short lifespan of 1-2 months, they are constantly dying. The biological characteristics of bees determine that their corpses generally stay on the floor of the cage rather than in their nests. When raising pet bees, if the bee corpses are not cleaned for a long time, it will affect people's visual experience. Moreover, if the bee corpses stay in the cages for too long, they will rot and bacteria will breed, affecting people's health. Existing cages cannot quickly and regularly remind people to clean the bee corpses. When people occasionally remember to clean the bee corpses, they usually need to change the pet bees to a new cage, or use a small brush to sweep the pet bee corpses out of the cage little by little. This is inefficient and cannot be cleaned regularly and in time. If the cage door is opened during cleaning, the bees will escape. Moreover, the bees often defecate on the cage net that is perpendicular to the ground. The existing cage net is generally fixed, which is not easy to clean.

[0004] Therefore, it is a problem worth studying to provide an indoor pet bee breeding device that can regularly and quickly clean up bee corpses and bee excrement. Summary of the invention

A door panel is provided on the top plate to facilitate opening and closing the space for breeding bees. Honey and water are placed in the feeding mechanism 6 to provide food and water for pet bees. The cleaning mechanism facilitates regular cleaning of bee corpses to prevent the bee corpses from staying on the bottom plate 2 for too long and rotting and breeding bacteria.

[0018] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, the cleaning mechanism 5 includes a collecting assembly 51 for collecting bee corpses, a blowing assembly 52 located at the rear side of the bottom plate 2 and used to blow the bee corpses into the collecting assembly 51, the collecting assembly 51 includes a mounting cavity 514 opening forward and located at the bottom of the support frame 1, a collecting slot 511 passing through the mounting cavity 514 and moving in the front-to-back direction, and a push rod motor 513 located at the rear side of the mounting cavity 514 and used to push the collecting slot 511 forward. A collecting plate is provided in the collecting slot 511, and a gravity sensor is provided on the lower surface of the collecting plate. The gravity sensor and the push rod motor 513 are both connected to the controller. A handle 512 is provided on the front side of the collecting slot 511, and the cleaning mechanism also includes an alarm, which is connected to the controller. The controller is pre-set with a set value for the weight of the bee corpse, and the gravity sensor transmits the detected data to the controller. When the weight of the bee corpse reaches the set value, that is, when the detection data received by the controller reaches the set value, the controller controls the alarm to send an alarm signal to remind people to take out the collection tank 511. When people need to take out the collection tank 511, by operating the switch button on the controller, the controller controls the telescopic end of the push rod motor 513 to move forward, and push the collection tank 511 out of the installation cavity 514, so that people can take away and dump the bee corpse. After the bee corpse is dumped, the telescopic end of the push rod motor 513 is reset through the control of the controller, and then the collection tank 511 is manually pushed backward and enters the installation cavity 514. The setting of the cleaning mechanism is convenient for regular cleaning of the bee corpses, the setting of the gravity sensor is convenient for people to clean the bee corpses in time, and the setting of the purge component is convenient for gathering the bee corpses in the collection tank to achieve the purpose of quick cleaning.

[0019] A door panel 515 is provided on the front side of the installation cavity 514, and the top of the door panel 515 is movably connected to the front side of the support frame 1 by a hinge, that is, when the collecting groove 511 is separated from the installation cavity 514, the door panel 515 blocks the front side of the installation cavity 514 to prevent the bees from escaping, and when the collection groove 511 is located inside the installation cavity 514, the door panel 515 is located on the front side of the collection groove 511.

[0020] The controller model is Siemens s7-200PLC controller, and the weight sensor model is NF302L.

[0021] The bottom plate 2 includes a second plate body 22 located below the collecting groove 511 and a first plate body 21 located on the rear side of the collecting groove 511. A roller is provided at the bottom of the collecting groove 511, and the roller contacts the upper surface of the second plate body 22, thereby reducing the friction between the collecting groove 511 and the second bottom plate 22 and extending the service life. The height of the frame around the collecting groove 511 is less than the height of the upper surface of the first plate body 21, thereby facilitating the entry of the dead bees into the collecting groove 511.

The container 64 is open upward and has a colorful flower shape, which is convenient for attracting bees to eat. The liquid storage tank 61 is located above the top plate, and the liquid level value of the liquid level sensor is preset in the controller. When the data detected by the liquid level sensor is transmitted to the controller, the controller analyzes and compares the received data with the preset value. When the received data is less than the preset value of the controller, the controller controls the electric switch to open, and honey and water enter the container 64 through the drip nozzle. When the data detected by the liquid level sensor reaches the set value, the electric switch is closed, and the degree of automation is high, avoiding the manual addition of water and honey. The model of the liquid level sensor is DS-P2F.
