Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cage weaving, and in particular relates to a katydid cage weaving method. Background Art
[0002] The rectangular katydid cage made of sorghum stalks and sorghum millet is easy to carry, beautiful and elegant, and easy to observe the appearance and living habits of katydids. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the invention is to solve the problems that the existing katydid cages are difficult to carry and have outdated styles, and to provide a katydid cage weaving method.
[0004] A katydid cage weaving method comprises the following steps: 1) Take 12 25 cm long first sorghum stalks, 22 15 cm long second sorghum stalks, several 10 cm long third sorghum stalks, four 6 cm long fourth sorghum stalks, and several sorghum strips; 2) Use a knife to carve three first grooves on the same side of all first sorghum stalks, 2 cm from both ends and in the middle. The length of the grooves is twice the diameter of the first sorghum stalk and the depth is half the diameter of the first sorghum stalk. Use a knife to carve two second grooves on the same side of all second sorghum stalks, 2 cm from both ends. The length of the grooves is twice the diameter of the second sorghum stalk and the depth is half the diameter of the second sorghum stalk. 3) Take two first sorghum stalks and place their first grooves opposite each other to form a first rectangular hole. Then take two second sorghum stalks and place their second grooves opposite each other to form a second rectangular hole. 4) inserting two second sorghum stalks into the first rectangular holes formed by the first grooves of the two first sorghum stalks, so that the first rectangular holes and the second rectangular holes of the second sorghum stalks form a cross; 5) Take two more second sorghum stalks and insert one of them into the inner side of the two second sorghum stalks at the intersection formed in step 3), so that the second groove is stuck in the first groove of the first sorghum stalk; insert the other second sorghum stalk into the gap between the outer ends of the two second sorghum stalks at the second groove, and flip it over so that the second groove is stuck in the first groove of the first sorghum stalk. At this time, the two first sorghum stalks and the four second sorghum stalks are stuck together at the first groove 6 and the second groove, forming a three-column structure perpendicular to each other; 6) Secure the remaining first and second sorghum stalks according to steps 3), 4), and 5) to form a rectangular cage frame with a carrying frame; four 6 cm long fourth sorghum stalks are threaded through the handles of the carrying frame; 7) Cut the two ends of the third sorghum stalk into two back-to-back 45° slopes, and remove the inner core of the third sorghum stalk at the slopes to form a fork-shaped opening; 8) The third sorghum stalks with forked ends prepared in step 7) are placed in the square holes on the bottom surface of the rectangular cage frame to form the bottom plate of the rectangular cage frame. The forked ends of the third sorghum stalks are inserted into the first sorghum stalks on both sides to secure them. The number of third sorghum stalks is determined by the amount of the third sorghum stalks needed to cover the square holes on the bottom surface of the rectangular cage frame.
[0005] 9) Use the tip of a knife to carve slits along the sorghum stalks on the inside of the outer frame of the rectangular cage. Then cut the pointed corners of the sorghum strips at both ends and insert them into the slits to weave a grille window, completing the weaving of the katydid cage.
[0006] The grille windows in step 9) are radial or parallel grid grille windows.
[0007] The sorghum strips in step 9) are soaked in water at 25-50° C. for 20 minutes before weaving to soften them and facilitate weaving.
[0008] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The weaving method of the present invention is simple and easy to implement; the katydid cage woven out of the invention has a novel style and is easy to carry; and the material used is sorghum straw, which is easily available and environmentally friendly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0010] A katydid cage weaving method comprises the following steps: 1) Take 12 25 cm long first sorghum stalks 1, 22 15 cm long second sorghum stalks 2, several 10 cm long third sorghum stalks 3, four 6 cm long fourth sorghum stalks 4, and several sorghum strips 5; 2) If Figure 1 As shown, three first grooves 6 with a length of twice the diameter of the first sorghum stalk and a depth of half the diameter of the first sorghum stalk are carved on the same side of all first sorghum stalks 1 at 2 cm from both ends and in the middle. Two second grooves 7 with a length of twice the diameter of the second sorghum stalk and a depth of half the diameter of the second sorghum stalk are carved on the same side of all second sorghum stalks at 2 cm from both ends. 3) If Figure 2 As shown, two first sorghum stalks 1 are taken, and their first grooves 6 are opposite to each other to form a first rectangular hole 8. Then, two second sorghum stalks 2 are taken, and their second grooves 7 are also opposite to each other to form a second rectangular hole 9. 4) If Figure 3 As shown, two second sorghum stalks 2 are inserted into the first rectangular holes 8 formed by the first grooves 6 of the two first sorghum stalks 1, so that the first rectangular holes 8 and the second rectangular holes 9 of the second sorghum stalks 2 form a cross shape; 5) If Figure 4 As shown, take two second sorghum stalks 2, and insert one of the second sorghum stalks 2 from the inner side of the two second sorghum stalks 2 at the cross intersection formed in step 3), and make the second groove 7 stuck in the first groove 6 of the first sorghum stalk 1; insert another second sorghum stalk 2 into the gap between the outer ends of the two second sorghum stalks 2 at the second groove 7 with a side elevation, and flip it over, so that the second groove 7 is stuck in the first groove 6 of the first sorghum stalk 1. At this time, the above-mentioned two first sorghum stalks 1 and the four second sorghum stalks 2 will be stuck with each other at the first groove 6 and the second groove 7 and be fixed, forming a three-column mutually perpendicular shape, as shown Figure 5 As shown; 6) Fix the remaining first sorghum stalks 1 and second sorghum stalks 2 according to steps 3), 4), and 5) to form a rectangular cage frame with a lifting frame; four fourth sorghum stalks 4, each 6 cm long, are inserted into the handles of the lifting frame, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown; 7) Cut the two ends of the third sorghum stalk 3 into two 45° inclined surfaces back to back, and remove the inner core of the third sorghum stalk 3 at the inclined surfaces to form a fork-shaped opening 31, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown; 8) The third sorghum stalks 3 with forked openings 31 at both ends prepared in step 7) are placed in the square holes on the bottom surface of the rectangular cage frame to form the bottom plate of the rectangular cage frame. The forked openings 31 at both ends of the third sorghum stalks 3 are inserted into the first sorghum stalks 1 on both sides to fix them. The number of third sorghum stalks 3 is based on the number of square holes on the bottom surface of the rectangular cage frame. Figure 8 As shown; 9) Use the tip of a knife to carve a slit along the sorghum stalks on the inner side of the rectangular cage frame, then cut the sharp corners of the sorghum strips 5 at both ends and insert them into the slits to weave a grille window to complete the weaving of the katydid cage. Figure 9 shown.
[0011] The grille windows in step 9) are radial or parallel grid grille windows.
[0012] The sorghum strips 5 in step 9) are soaked in water at 25-50° C. for 20 minutes before weaving to soften them and facilitate weaving.
[0013] The katydid cage woven using the method of the present invention is as follows: Figure 10 shown.
