Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of feeding containers, and more particularly to a miniature isolation device for obtaining offspring populations with a clear genetic background of piercing-sucking insects. Background Technology

[0002] Insects with piercing-sucking mouthparts, including aphids, leafhoppers, planthoppers, and thrips, primarily damage plants by sucking their sap and are also major vectors for spreading plant diseases. Rearing piercing-sucking insects is beneficial for studying their growth and development characteristics and their relationship with plants and pathogens, serving as a prerequisite for plant protection and biological control research. To study insect feeding behavior and habits, as well as their disease transmission characteristics, it is necessary to conduct fixed-point feeding and observation of insects to recreate their natural feeding behavior as closely as possible.

[0003] The existing isolation device uses a clip-on design, which has the following shortcomings: 1) It cannot control the clamping force on the leaves and is easy to damage the leaves; 2) The metal clips cause local heating to accelerate, which can easily affect the growth and observation status of piercing-sucking insects; 3) It occupies a lot of space; 4) It is inconvenient to clamp.

[0004] Designing a miniature isolation device to obtain a clear genetic background of offspring populations of piercing-sucking insects, avoiding leaf damage during insect culture and observation, preventing environmental changes from affecting observation, and facilitating clamping and minimizing space occupation, has become a technical challenge that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a miniature isolation device for obtaining offspring populations with a clear genetic background of piercing-sucking insects, and to solve the problems listed in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] This invention provides a miniature isolation device for obtaining offspring populations with a clear genetic background of piercing-sucking insects. The device includes an isolation cylinder, one end of which is fixedly connected to the upper end of a receiving groove, and the other end of which is sealed with a dense mesh net.

[0008] A flexible contact component is placed inside the receiving groove;

[0009] It also includes an abutment component, which is magnetically connected to the receiving groove.

[0010] Preferably, the flexible contact assembly includes an annular airbag, an air tube is connected to the outer wall of the annular airbag, and a plug is installed at the opening of the air tube.

[0011] After being inflated, the annular airbag abuts against the inner wall of the receiving groove.

[0012] A groove is provided on the side wall of the lower opening of the receiving groove, and the groove matches the external dimensions of the air tube.

[0013] Preferably, the abutting component includes an abutting plate, and a pull ring is hinged to the lower surface of the abutting plate.

[0014] Preferably, the upper surface of the receiving groove is provided with an upper magnetic mounting groove in an annular shape.

[0015] Preferably, the lower surface of the abutment plate is provided with a lower magnetic mounting groove in an annular shape, and the pull ring is located at the center of the lower magnetic mounting groove.

[0016] Preferably, the upper magnetic mounting groove corresponds to the lower magnetic mounting groove;

[0017] Magnets are embedded in the upper magnetic mounting groove and the lower magnetic mounting groove.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0019] This invention provides a miniature isolation device for obtaining offspring populations with a clear genetic background of piercing-sucking insects. Researchers can rationally place magnets in the upper and lower magnetic mounting slots according to the thickness of the leaf and the sealing requirements of the isolation cylinder and the receiving groove with the leaf. This allows for control of the clamping force on the leaf. Simultaneously, the annular airbag is inflated and contacts the shaded side of the leaf, while the contact plate contacts the light-facing side of the leaf, effectively preventing leaf damage. The device is fixed to the leaf by magnets, making it convenient and quick to install. It also reduces the footprint and the number of metal parts, avoiding localized temperature changes that could affect the rearing and observation of piercing-sucking insects.

[0027] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a miniature isolation device for obtaining offspring populations with a clear genetic background of piercing-sucking insects includes an isolation cylinder 1. One end of the isolation cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the receiving groove 3, and the other end of the isolation cylinder 1 is sealed with a dense mesh net 10.

[0029] A flexible contact component is placed inside the receiving groove 3;

[0030] It also includes an abutment component, which is magnetically connected to the receiving groove 3.

[0031] Specifically, the flexible contact assembly includes an annular airbag 4, an air tube 8 is connected to the outer wall of the annular airbag 4, and a plug 7 is installed at the opening of the air tube 8.

[0032] After being inflated, the annular airbag 4 abuts against the inner wall of the accommodating groove 3.

[0033] A groove is provided on the side wall of the lower opening of the receiving groove 3, and the groove matches the external dimensions of the air pipe 8;

[0034] When in use, inflate the annular airbag so that the outer wall of the annular airbag abuts against the inner wall of the groove, and the annular airbag abuts against the back surface of the blade. This will not cause damage to the blade and will ensure the sealing performance between the annular airbag and the blade.

[0035] Specifically, the abutting component includes an abutting plate 5, and a pull ring 6 is hinged to the lower surface of the abutting plate 5. The abutting plate abuts against the smooth light-facing surface of the blade, which can disperse the pressure and further avoid damage to the blade.

[0036] The pull ring is hinged to the abutment plate, which on the one hand makes it easier to overcome the magnetic force to separate the abutment plate from the blade, and on the other hand allows the pull ring to contact the abutment plate, reducing the footprint.

[0037] Specifically, the upper surface of the receiving groove 3 is provided with an upper magnetic mounting groove 9 in a ring shape.

[0038] Specifically, the lower surface of the abutment plate 5 is provided with a lower magnetic mounting groove 11 in an annular shape, and the pull ring 6 is located at the center of the lower magnetic mounting groove 11.

[0039] Specifically, the upper magnetic mounting groove 9 corresponds to the lower magnetic mounting groove 11;

[0040] Magnets 2 are embedded in the upper magnetic mounting groove 9 and the lower magnetic mounting groove 11. The magnets are installed in the upper and lower magnetic mounting grooves by snap-fit, so that the magnets can be kept fixed in the upper and lower magnetic mounting grooves.

[0041] At the same time, the number of metal fasteners was reduced to avoid localized temperature increases under sunlight, which could affect the rearing and observation of piercing-sucking insects.

[0042] In use, researchers can place magnets in the upper and lower magnetic mounting slots according to the thickness of the blade and the sealing requirements of the isolation cylinder and the receiving groove with the blade. The annular airbag is then inflated and brought into contact with the back side of the blade, and the contact plate is brought into contact with the front side of the blade. The magnets are used to fix the blade in place, which is convenient and quick.

[0043] It should be noted that the terms “comprising,” “including,” or any other variations thereof used herein are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0044] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
