[0008] Furthermore, a transparent observation window is provided on one side of the box.

[0009] Furthermore, a top cover is hinged on the upper surface of the box body, and a vent is provided on the upper surface of the top cover.

[0010] Furthermore, a thermostat is provided at the bottom of the top cover.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0012] The utility model provides a leech cocoon incubation box. In the prior art, the survival rate of larvae in the leech cocoon incubation box is not high. However, the utility model uses a baffle, a through groove, a water-absorbing cotton cloth and a hatching plate. Since leeches usually actively look for a water source after hatching, the water-absorbing cotton cloth in the baffle is contacted with the water surface in the box by contraction of an electric push rod, so that the water-absorbing cotton cloth can attract the larvae after being fully absorbed. The larvae then pass through the through groove and fall out of the hatching plate. If the larvae are blocked in the through groove, the vibration generated by moving the hatching plate up and down can make them fall. In addition, after hatching is completed, the hatching plate can be raised by extending the electric push rod, so that the staff can check and replace the hatching plate for the next round of hatching, or directly remove it to collect and transfer the leech larvae in the box.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0019] In order to further understand the content of the utility model, the utility model is described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0020] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 A leech cocoon hatching box comprises a box body 1, wherein a hatching assembly 2 for hatching leech cocoons is arranged inside the box body 1.

[0021] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with embodiments.

[0022] Embodiment 1:

[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The hatching assembly 2 includes an electric push rod 21 arranged on one side of the box body 1, a slider 22 fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 21, a connecting rod 23 fixedly installed on one side of the slider 22, and a hatching plate 24 connected to the upper surface of the connecting rod 23. The upper surface of the hatching plate 24 is provided with a baffle 25, the interior of the baffle 25 is provided with a through groove 26, the inner wall of the through groove 26 is provided with a hanging rod 27, and the outer surface of the hanging rod 27 is provided with a water-absorbing cotton cloth. The upper surface of the hatching plate 24 is paved with soil, and leech cocoons are placed inside the soil. Clean water is injected into the box body 1. Since leeches usually actively hatch after hatching, Find a water source, so the electric push rod 21 is contracted to make the absorbent cotton cloth in the baffle 25 contact with the water surface in the box body 1, so that it can absorb water and attract larvae. The larvae then pass through the through groove 26 and fall out of the hatching plate 24. If the larvae are blocked in the through groove 26, they can be made to fall out by the vibration generated by moving the hatching plate 24 up and down. In addition, after the hatching is completed, the hatching plate 24 can be raised by extending the electric push rod 21, so that the staff can check and replace the hatching plate 24 for the next round of hatching, or directly remove it to collect and transfer the leech larvae in the box body 1.

[0024] A shell 3 is provided at the bottom of the box body 1, and a water pump is provided inside the shell 3. A connecting pipe 31 is provided at one end of the water pump, and a nozzle 32 is provided at one end of the connecting pipe 31. One end of the nozzle 32 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 1. The shell 3 can protect the water pump and reduce erosion, thereby facilitating maintenance. The water pump draws part of the water from the box body 1 into the nozzle 32, so that the nozzle 32 can spray water to the larvae being hatched in the hatching plate 24, so as to prevent the larvae from lack of water and improve the survival rate.

[0025] A filter screen 4 is arranged inside the box body 1, and the filter screen 4 can prevent soil from falling into the box body 1, and the filter screen 4 can not hinder the leech larvae from crawling in.

[0026] A transparent observation window 5 is provided on one side of the box body 1 to facilitate the control of the lifting and lowering of the hatching assembly 2 so as to better observe the hatching situation inside the box body 1.

[0027] A top cover 6 is hinged on the upper surface of the box body 1 , and a vent 61 is provided on the upper surface of the top cover 6 , which can both provide ventilation and heat dissipation and prevent larvae from crawling out of the vent 61 .

[0028] A thermostat 7 is provided at the bottom of the top cover 6 to keep the temperature inside the box 1 at a suitable temperature for hatching.

[0029] Specifically, the hatching plate 24 and the baffle plate 25 are assembled and then connected to the inside of the box 1. Then, soil is laid on the upper surface of the hatching plate 24, and multiple groups of leech cocoons are placed inside the soil. Then, water is injected into the box 1. Since the hatching plate 24 is connected to the electric push rod 21 and the slider 22 on one side of the box 1 through the connecting rod 23, the absorbent cotton cloth in the baffle plate 25 can be brought into contact with the water surface in the box 1 by the contraction of the electric push rod 21. There is a through groove 26, the inner wall of the through groove 26 is provided with a hanging rod 27, and the outer surface of the hanging rod 27 is provided with a water-absorbing cotton cloth, so that the water-absorbing cotton cloth is saturated with water. Since leeches usually actively look for water sources after hatching, the larvae are attracted to the vicinity of the through groove 26, pass through the through groove 26, and fall out of the hatching plate 24. If the larvae are blocked in the through groove 26, the vibration generated by moving the hatching plate 24 up and down can make them fall. In addition, after hatching is completed, the hatching plate 24 can be raised by extending the electric push rod 21. , so that it is convenient for the staff to check and replace the hatching plate 24, which is convenient for the next round of hatching, or directly remove it to collect and transfer the leech larvae in the box body 1. In order to prevent the larvae from lacking water during the crawling process, a nozzle 32 is also provided. The water pump draws part of the water from the box body 1 into the nozzle 32, so that the nozzle 32 can spray water on the larvae being hatched in the hatching plate 24, thereby further improving the survival rate. Because the box body 1 is provided with a filter screen 4 inside, the filter screen 4 can prevent soil from falling into the box body 1, and the filter screen 4 can not hinder the leech larvae from crawling in. In addition, a top cover 6 is hinged on the upper surface of the box body 1, and a vent 61 is opened on the upper surface of the top cover 6, which can be ventilated and heat dissipated, and can prevent the larvae from crawling out of the vent 61, and a thermostat 7 is provided at the bottom of the top cover 6, so that the box body 1 is at a temperature suitable for hatching. The above-mentioned hatching process can be observed through a transparent observation window 5 provided on one side of the box body 1 for better adjustment and control.
