Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of catching spoons, in particular to a catching spoon for fast-swimming benthic animals. Background Art
[0002] The sampling of benthic animals is generally carried out by using a tweezer and a straw. For benthic animals that swim too fast, they often swim away before the tools for catching them are available, which often affects the efficiency of sampling. At this time, about 75% alcohol is generally added to anesthetize them and limit their swimming speed. However, the amount of alcohol added is often difficult to determine. If too little is added, the requirements for limiting movement cannot be met. If too much is added, the animals sometimes die from alcohol and no longer swim, making it impossible to find such benthic animals hiding in the sand, soil, and other impurities in the water, which affects the accuracy of sampling. Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be designed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, meet practical needs, and provide a catching spoon for fast-swimming benthic animals, so as to solve the current technical problems of low efficiency in catching small fast-swimming benthic animals and the need to use reagents such as alcohol for troublesome sample selection.
[0004] In order to achieve the purpose of the utility model, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: to design a catching spoon for fast-moving benthic animals, including a spoon, the bottom of the spoon is connected to a sample storage tank through a threaded joint, the outer periphery of the threaded joint is covered with a sealing ring, a plurality of overflow holes are opened on the outer periphery of the threaded joint, slots are opened on the outer and inner peripheries of the overflow holes, the slots are connected to a mounting ring through an insert ring, an isolation net is installed in the middle of the mounting ring, one end of the spoon is fixedly connected to a handle, and the outside of the spoon and the handle are covered with anti-static insulating silicone sleeves.
[0005] Preferably, one end of the threaded joint is integrally formed with the bottom of the spoon, and the other end of the threaded joint is connected to the interior of the sample storage tank via a thread, and is sealed to the edge of the sample storage tank via a sealing ring.
[0006] Preferably, the slot is located on the inner side of the spoon, and the overflow hole runs through the bottom of the spoon.
[0007] Preferably, the size of the insert ring matches the size of the slot and is inserted into the slot.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the mounting ring is fixedly connected to one end of the insert ring and fits with the inner wall of the spoon.
[0009] Preferably, the isolation net is fixedly connected to the middle of the mounting ring and covers the outside of the overflow hole.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0011] The capture spoon shape designed by the utility model can capture small benthic animals with fast swimming speed. Generally, they are captured before they swim out of the size range of the spoon shape and can be stored in the space at the bottom of the spoon. It is not necessary to put them into a culture dish or a sample bottle every time they are captured, so that the operation is simple and convenient, and it is easy to carry. It can specifically target small benthic animals with fast swimming speed that can be seen. In addition, the frame and handle of the spoon are treated with anti-static electricity, which increases the capture success rate and improves the work efficiency.
[0012] When the spoon is lifted from the water, excess water in the spoon will flow out from the overflow hole. During this process, the isolation net will isolate the benthic animals to prevent them from flowing out of the overflow hole. When the isolation net needs to be cleaned, the operator can directly pull the plug ring on the mounting frame out from the inside of the slot, and then clean the isolation net, which improves the convenience of the isolation net during the cleaning process.

[0018] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0019] Example 1: Catching spoon for fast-moving benthic animals, see Figures 1 to 3, comprising a spoon 1, the bottom of the spoon 1 is connected to a sample storage tank 12 through a threaded joint 11, a sealing ring 13 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the threaded joint 11, one end of the threaded joint 11 is integrally formed with the bottom of the spoon 1, the other end of the threaded joint 11 is connected to the inside of the sample storage tank 12 through a thread, and is sealed and connected to the edge of the sample storage tank 12 through the sealing ring 13, when the sample storage tank 12 needs to be disassembled, the operator can directly unscrew the sample storage tank 12 from the threaded joint 11, at this time the edge of the sample storage tank 12 will be separated from the sealing ring 13, so as to improve the convenience of the capture spoon during the disassembly process;
[0020] For details, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 A plurality of overflow holes 14 are provided on the periphery of the threaded joint 11, and slots 15 are provided on the periphery and inner periphery of the overflow holes 14. The slots 15 are located on the inner side of the spoon 1, and the overflow holes 14 pass through the bottom of the spoon 1. The slots 15 are connected to a mounting ring 17 through an insert ring 16. The size of the insert ring 16 matches the size of the slot 15, and the insert ring 16 is inserted into the inside of the slot 15. The bottom of the mounting ring 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the insert ring 16 and matches the inner wall of the spoon 1. An isolation net 18 is installed in the middle of the mounting ring 17, and the isolation net 18 is fixedly connected to the mounting ring 17, and covers the outside of the overflow hole 14. One end of the spoon 1 is fixedly connected with a handle 19. When the spoon 1 is lifted from the water, excess water in the spoon 1 will flow out from the overflow hole 14. During this process, the isolation net 18 will isolate the benthic animals, so as to prevent the benthic animals from flowing out of the overflow hole 14. When the isolation net 18 needs to be cleaned, the operator can directly pull the plug ring 16 on the mounting frame out of the slot 15, and then clean the isolation net 18, which improves the convenience of the isolation net 18 during the cleaning process.
