At this time, under the pulling force of the spring 18, the plug 16 will block the water inlet of the water outlet pipe 19 again, so that the water in the water tank 2 will no longer flow into the water storage tank 21, thereby stopping the water replenishment. When the water storage tank 21 needs to be cleaned, the handle 28 is manually turned, and the handle 28 drives the threaded rod 2 The threaded rod 22 rotates on the water storage tank 21, and the scraper 24 is driven by the threaded rod 22 to move along the sliding rod 23. The scraper 24 is used to clean the scale. After the cleaning is completed, the water outlet 29 is opened, and the scale is discharged from the water outlet 29 along with the water in the water storage tank 21. The water in the water storage tank 21 flows to the nozzle 26 through the connecting pipe 25. The nozzle 26 is used to spray, so that the soil in the breeding box 30 is kept moist. The excess water is collected by the collecting box 31 and discharged through the drain port 32. The breeding box 30 is ventilated through the air vent 33, thereby providing a suitable living environment for the earthworms.
