Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of zooplankton sub-sampling, and particularly relates to a zooplankton sub-sampling device. Background Art
[0002] Zooplankton is a general term for a class of heterotrophic invertebrates that often float in water and cannot manufacture organic matter themselves and the larvae of chordates. It is a group of animals that live a floating life in water. They either have no swimming ability at all or have very weak swimming ability, cannot move over long distances, and are not strong enough to resist the flow of water. Zooplankton are economic aquatic animals; they are important baits for fish and other economic animals in the middle and upper waters, and are of great significance to the development of fishery. Since the distribution of many species of zooplankton is related to climate, they can also be used as indicator animals for warm and cold currents. Many species of zooplankton are important bait sources for fish and shellfish, and some species such as Acetes chinensis and Rhopilema esculenta can be used as human food. In addition, many species can be used as indicator organisms for water pollution. For example, in eutrophic water bodies, species such as Moina rectirostris, Cyclops vicinus, and Brachionus calyciflorus generally form dominant populations. Some species, such as Tetrahymena pyriformis and Daphnia magna, are used as experimental animals in toxicity tests.
[0003] In the Chinese utility model patent with the publication number of CN 210168768 U, an automatic sorting device for zooplankton live samples is disclosed. The filter screen is driven to rotate by a driving motor. Under the action of the gravity of the water body itself and the centrifugal force of the rotation of the filter screen, zooplankton smaller than the aperture of the mesh cloth of the filter screen is filtered out, and the filtered zooplankton is thrown to the surroundings and enters the inner cavity of the collection bin through the inner opening of the collection bin, and then is led out through the discharge pipe. Due to the centrifugal force of the rotation of the filter screen, the filter screen is prevented from being blocked and the filtration efficiency is improved. And because there is no pressurization, the survival rate of floating animals can be well guaranteed. Regarding the above related technologies, the inventor believes that there are the following defects: the filtered zooplankton is thrown to the surroundings by centrifugal force, and the zooplankton hitting the inner wall of the connecting pipe will cause harm to the zooplankton. In addition, the filtered zooplankton does not directly fall into the collection bin, and a good collection effect cannot be achieved, and the whole device is not convenient for disassembly and cleaning.
