DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0026] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present utility model, the following further describes the present utility model with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0027] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present utility model. However, the present utility model may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0028] Embodiment 1, as Figures 1-4 shown, the present utility model provides an insect breeding and grasping mechanism, including: a fixed frame 1, and two first tracks 2 are fixedly installed at one end of the fixed frame 1. It further includes:

[0029] a first rack 3, fixedly installed at one end of the fixed frame 1 close to the two first tracks 2, and a motor box 4 is slidably installed at one end of the two first tracks 2 away from the fixed frame 1;

[0030] a first motor 5, fixedly installed at one end of the motor box 4 close to the first rack 3, and an output end of the first motor 5 extending through the motor box 4 to the outside is fixedly installed with a first gear 6;

[0031] two second tracks 7, slidably installed at one end of the motor box 4 away from the first motor 5, and the outer surface of the first gear 6 is meshed with the outer surface of the first rack 3;

[0032] a square tube 701, fixedly installed at one end of the two second tracks 7 and the two first tracks 2, and a second rack 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the square tube 701.

[0033] In this embodiment, during use, the first rack 3 and the two first tracks 2 are both fixed on the fixing frame 1, which is convenient for enhancing the stability of the first rack 3 and the two first tracks 2. The two first tracks 2 are in sliding contact with the motor box 4. After connecting to the external power supply, the staff turns on the power supply system of the first motor 5 and controls the first motor 5 to work forward and backward, so that the output end of the first motor 5 drives the first gear 6 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. The first gear 6 is meshed with the first rack 3, which is convenient for the first gear 6 to move left or right on the first rack 3. When the first gear 6 moves, it drives the first motor 5 to move. Since the first motor 5 is fixed on the motor box 4, when the first motor 5 moves, it drives the motor box 4 to move. One end of the motor box 4 is in sliding contact with the two second tracks 7. The two second tracks 7 fix the square tube 701. The second rack 8 on the square tube 701 is meshed with the second gear 10 at the output end of the second motor 9, which is convenient for driving the square tube 701 to move and adjusting the position of the square tube 701 when the motor box 4 moves. Turn on the power supply system of the second motor 9 and control the second motor 9 to work forward and backward. The second gear 10 at the output end of the second motor 9 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise. When the second gear 10 rotates, it drives the second rack 8 to move up or down, which is perpendicular to the first rack 3. When the second rack 8 moves, it drives the square tube 701 and the two second tracks 7 to move. Since one end of the square tube 701 fixes the third motor 702 and is connected to the connecting block 704 by bearings, it is convenient for driving the third motor 702 and the connecting block 704 to move synchronously when the square tube 701 moves. The first rack 3 is the X-axis and the second rack 8 is the Z-axis, which is beneficial to achieving the effect of precise positioning of the X-axis and the Z-axis. At the same time, the transmission mode adopts a gear-rack, and the movement is stable. Turn on the power supply system of the third motor 702 and control the third motor 702 to work forward and backward. When the output end of the third motor 702 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, it drives the driving gear 703 to rotate. The driving gear 703 drives the driven gear 705 to rotate. The driven gear 705 drives the connecting block 704 to rotate. The connecting block 704 drives the mounting plate 706 to rotate, which is convenient for achieving the effect of adjusting the angle of the mounting plate 706 and is beneficial to further expanding the use range of the mounting plate 706.

[0034] Embodiment 2, as Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, a second motor 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the motor box 4 close to the second rack 8. The output end of the second motor 9 extending through the motor box 4 to the inside is fixedly installed with a second gear 10. The outer surface of the second gear 10 is meshed and connected with the outer surface of the second rack 8. One end of the square tube 701 is fixedly installed with a third motor 702. The output end of the third motor 702 is fixedly installed with a driving gear 703. One end of the square tube 701 close to the driving gear 703 is installed with a connecting block 704 through a bearing. One end of the connecting block 704 close to the driving gear 703 is fixedly installed with a driven gear 705. The outer surface of the driven gear 705 is meshed and connected with the outer surface of the driving gear 703. One end of the connecting block 704 away from the driven gear 705 is fixedly installed with a mounting plate 706. Both ends of the mounting plate 706 are fixedly installed with telescopic cylinders 707. The output ends of the two telescopic cylinders 707 are both fixedly installed with double-rod moving frames 708. One end of the two double-rod moving frames 708 away from the telescopic cylinders 707 is fixedly installed with clamping plates 709. A plurality of anti-slip grooves 710 are opened on the opposite sides of the two clamping plates 709.

[0035] In this embodiment, during use, start the pneumatic system of the telescopic cylinder 707, control the telescopic cylinder 707 on one side of the mounting plate 706 to work. When the output end of the telescopic cylinder 707 extends, it drives the two double-rod moving frames 708 to move in opposite directions. When the output end of the telescopic cylinder 707 retracts, it drives the two double-rod moving frames 708 to move relatively. When the two double-rod moving frames 708 move, they drive the two clamping plates 709 to move. When the two clamping plates 709 move relatively, they clamp and fix the breeding box. The anti-slip grooves 710 enhance the friction between the clamping plate 709 and the breeding box, improving the stability when the breeding box is clamped and fixed. When the two clamping plates 709 move in opposite directions, the clamping of the breeding box is released.

[0036] Working principle: During use, the first rack 3 and the two first tracks 2 are both fixed on the fixing frame 1 to enhance the stability of the first rack 3 and the two first tracks 2. The two first tracks 2 are in sliding contact with the motor box 4. After connecting to the external power supply, the staff turns on the power supply system of the first motor 5 and controls the first motor 5 to work forward and backward, so that the output end of the first motor 5 drives the first gear 6 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. The first gear 6 is meshed and connected with the first rack 3, facilitating the first gear 6 to move left or right on the first rack 3. When the first gear 6 moves, it drives the first motor 5 to move. Since the first motor 5 is fixed on the motor box 4, the first motor 5 drives the motor box 4 to move when it moves. One end of the motor box 4 is in sliding contact with the two second tracks 7. The two second tracks 7 fix the square tube 701. The second rack 8 on the square tube 701 is meshed and connected with the second gear 10 at the output end of the second motor 9, facilitating the movement of the square tube 701 when the motor box 4 moves to adjust the position of the square tube 701. Turn on the power supply system of the second motor 9 and control the second motor 9 to work forward and backward. The second gear 10 at the output end of the second motor 9 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise. When the second gear 10 rotates, it drives the second rack 8 to move up or down, perpendicular to the first rack 3. When the second rack 8 moves, it drives the square tube 701 and the two second tracks 7 to move. Since one end of the square tube 701 fixes the third motor 702 and is connected to the connecting block 704 by a bearing, it is convenient to drive the third motor 702 and the connecting block 704 to move synchronously when the square tube 701 moves. The first rack 3 is the X-axis and the second rack 8 is the Z-axis, which is beneficial to achieving the precise positioning effect of the X-axis and the Z-axis. At the same time, the transmission mode adopts a gear-rack, with stable movement. Turn on the power supply system of the third motor 702 and control the third motor 702 to work forward and backward. When the output end of the third motor 702 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, it drives the driving gear 703 to rotate. The driving gear 703 drives the driven gear 705 to rotate. The driven gear 705 drives the connecting block 704 to rotate. The connecting block 704 drives the mounting plate 706 to rotate, facilitating the effect of adjusting the angle of the mounting plate 706 and further expanding the use range of the mounting plate 706. During use, start the pneumatic system of the telescopic cylinder 707 and control the telescopic cylinder 707 on one side of the mounting plate 706 to work. When the output end of the telescopic cylinder 707 extends, it drives the two double-rod moving frames 708 to move in opposite directions. When the output end of the telescopic cylinder 707 retracts, it drives the two double-rod moving frames 708 to move relatively. When the two double-rod moving frames 708 move, they drive the two clamping plates 709 to move. When the two clamping plates 709 move relatively, they clamp and fix the breeding box. The anti-slip grooves 710 enhance the friction between the clamping plates 709 and the breeding box, improving the stability of the breeding box when it is clamped and fixed. When the two clamping plates 709 move in opposite directions, the clamping of the breeding box is released. The model of the first motor 5 is 1FL6044-1AF61-2AB1, the model of the second motor 9 is 1FL6024-2AF21-1LA1, and the model of the third motor 702 is 1FL6022-2AF21-1MH1.The model of the telescopic cylinder 707 is CXSJM6-20.,
