Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mosquito larvae collection, and in particular to a device for collecting, storing and eclosion-promoting mosquito larvae in the wild. Background Art

[0002] The collection of mosquito larvae in the wild is an important part of the mosquito background survey. During the field mosquito background survey, if larvae are found in the water, they are usually scooped out with a water scoop and placed in a wide-mouth bottle or a bucket with a lid, and then brought into the laboratory for breeding. When the mosquito larvae pupate, they need to be picked up and placed in a mosquito cage. They can only be identified after they emerge from the pupae. If they are not brought back to the laboratory in time, the pupae may die after emerging into mosquitoes or the mosquito larvae may die, which will affect the species identification.

[0003] At present, there is a lack of equipment for collecting, storing and eclosing mosquito larvae on site. Due to the cumbersome process of collecting and identifying mosquito larvae, it may lead to the death of mosquito larvae and the low survival rate of adult mosquitoes. In view of the above, this application proposes a device for collecting, storing and eclosing mosquito larvae in the wild to solve the problem; to achieve the effect of collecting, storing and eclosing mosquito larvae, the device is not only used for collecting mosquito larvae, but also for short-term feeding of mosquito larvae until eclosion; at the same time, mosquito larvae and adult mosquitoes can be separated for species identification.

[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the utility model easier to understand, the utility model is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0024] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "lateral", "longitudinal", "end", "edge", "sidewall", "up", "down", "upper part", "lower part", "directly above", "surface", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", "end", "head" and "tail" etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the technical solution of the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0025] In order to reduce the cumbersome process of mosquito larvae collection and identification, which may lead to the death of mosquito larvae or the inability of adult mosquitoes to survive normally, thereby affecting species identification; in view of the above, the present application proposes a device for collecting, storing and eclosing mosquito larvae in the wild, which is as follows;

[0026] For reference Figure 1-4 The present application is mainly composed of a cylinder 1, a collecting member 2 located on the upper side of the cylinder 1 and connected to the cylinder 1, and a top cover 4 connected to the top of the collecting member 2. It is not only used for collecting mosquito larvae, but also for short-term feeding of mosquito larvae until they emerge; at the same time, it can also separate mosquito larvae from adult mosquitoes, and it is convenient and practical to use an electric mosquito suction device to suck emerging adult mosquitoes for species identification.

[0027] It should be noted that the devices are all made of transparent plexiglass, which makes it easy to observe the changes in mosquito larvae during the process of breeding, emergence and collection.

[0028] For reference Figure 1-4 The cylinder 1 is used for collecting and raising mosquito larvae, and a fixing ring 7 is threadedly connected on the surface. Through the connection combination of the fixing ring 7 and the cylinder 1, a telescopic rod 8 arranged on the surface of the fixing ring 7 can adjust the distance between the human body and the fixing ring 7 by adjusting; when the cylinder 1 is used for collecting, the telescopic rod 8 can be extended to the collection position, so that the cylinder 1 can be extended to the collection position to collect the mosquito larvae.

[0029] Among them, a handle 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod 8 away from the fixing ring 7, and an anti-skid pad is bonded to the surface of the handle 9, which can reduce the serious problem of sliding during collection and ensure stability during the collection process.

[0030] For reference Figure 1-4 In order to facilitate the collection of mosquito larvae after they emerge as adults in the cylinder 1, a collecting piece 2 is connected to the upper side of the cylinder 1 to carry the emerging adult mosquitoes; a trumpet tube 3 is arranged inside the collecting piece 2, and the trumpet tubes 3 are arranged from large to small, with the larger end fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the collecting piece 2, and the end with a smaller diameter facing upwards, and the trumpet tube 3 is arranged inside the collecting piece 2 in an inverted trumpet shape; so that when the mosquito larvae emerge as adults, they can fly along the trumpet mouth to the adult mosquito collecting piece 2.

[0031] For reference Figure 4 The design of the trumpet tube 3 can encourage the adult mosquitoes after emergence to enter the collecting member 2. However, in order to prevent the adult mosquitoes from running out after entering the collecting member 2, a top cover 4 for shielding is provided on the top of the collecting member 2, so that a certain amount of adult mosquitoes can be collected in the collecting member 2 within a period of time.

[0032] For reference Figure 3In order to maintain the internal air circulation when the interior is blocked, an iron mesh 5 is arranged on the top cover 4; the iron mesh 5 is arranged to be a detachable structure, which is more convenient for subsequent cleaning; at the same time, the external electric mosquito suction device can collect the adult mosquitoes that fly into the collection member 2 through the iron mesh 5.

[0033] In the utility model, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0034] 1. First, a fixing ring 7 is connected and installed on the surface of the cylinder 1, and the telescopic rod 8 connected to the fixing ring 7 is adjusted to a suitable length to collect mosquito larvae;

[0035] 2. Secondly, the top of the cylinder 1 containing the collected mosquito larvae is connected to the collecting member 2, and the top cover 4 is connected to the top of the collecting member 2;

[0036] 3. Then, when the larvae in the cylinder 1 emerge, they fly along the trumpet tube 3 in the collecting part 2 to the collecting part 2;

[0037] 4. Finally, the iron mesh 5 can be connected to an external electric mosquito suction device, and the adult mosquitoes that fly into the collecting member 2 can be collected by the mosquito suction device for subsequent species identification.

[0038] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of protection claimed by the utility model. The scope of protection claimed by the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
