[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections, electrical connections, or mutual communication; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; they can refer to internal communication between two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on specific circumstances.

[0026] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first and second features being in direct contact, or may include the first and second features being in contact not directly but through another feature between them. Moreover, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0027] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an assembled small insect behavior recorder, including an insect cage 1, a camera 2, and a shooting guide limit cage 3.

[0028] Among them, the top of the photographing instrument 2 is fixed on the inner top plate of the insect cage 1, the photographing guide limiting cage 3 is a conical sleeve structure, and the photographing guide limiting cage 3 is provided with a top hole 31 and a bottom hole 32. The diameter of the top hole 31 is smaller than the diameter of the bottom hole 32. The top hole 31 is connected to the bottom of the photographing instrument 2, and the bottom hole 32 is connected to the side wall of the insect cage 1.

[0029] The embodiment of the present application can limit the insect activity range by setting the shooting guide limiting cage 3, and can ensure that the shooting area of the recorder is located within the range limited by the shooting guide limiting cage 3, without causing blind spots in the shooting area, thereby improving shooting efficiency.

[0030] In this embodiment, the insect cage 1 is provided with micro air holes 11. The diameter of the micro air holes 11 is smaller than the diameter of the insects being restrained, thereby preventing small insects from escaping through the micro air holes 11. The micro air holes 11 are circular, triangular, elliptical, or polygonal in shape.

[0031] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the insect cage 1 is cylindrical or rectangular, and the shape of the bottom hole 32 is the same as the cross-section of the insect cage 1. In this way, the shooting guide and limiting cage 3 can be connected or abutted with the side wall of the insect cage 1 without any gap.

[0032] In this embodiment, the bottom of the camera 2 is a lens, and the top hole 31 is arranged around the lens. The shooting angle of the camera 2 is greater than or equal to the cone angle of the shooting guide and limiting cage 3. This ensures that the recording camera's shooting area is within the range defined by the shooting guide and limiting cage 3, eliminating blind spots in the shooting area and improving shooting efficiency.

[0033] In this embodiment, a light reflecting layer is provided on the inner surface of the shooting guide limiting cage 3. The light reflecting layer can help to improve the clarity of the image when shooting the insect position with less light.

[0034] In this embodiment, the assembled small insect behavior recorder also includes a longitudinal adjustment bracket 4, which is mounted on the inner top plate of the insect cage 1. The camera 2 is mounted on the bracket 4. The bracket 4 is capable of adjusting the height of the camera 2 and the camera guide and limiting cage 3 within the insect cage 1. The bracket 4 effectively adjusts the distance between the bottom hole 32 of the camera guide and limiting cage 3 and the bottom surface of the insect cage 1 to accommodate insects of different sizes. Furthermore, the camera guide and limiting cage 3 can also limit the insect's range of movement.

[0035] like Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the longitudinal adjustment bracket 4 includes a first rod 41 and a second rod 42, which are detachably connected by a torsion hinge. The first rod 41 is connected to the inner top plate of the insect cage 1, and the second rod 42 is connected to the top of the imaging device 2. By stretching the first and second rods 41 and 42 upward and downward, the distance between the bottom hole 32 of the imaging guide and limiting cage 3 and the bottom surface of the insect cage 1 can be adjusted to accommodate insects of different sizes. The torsion hinge connection can constantly fix the relative height positions of the imaging device 2 and the imaging guide and limiting cage 3 within the insect cage 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, the sidewalls of the insect cage 1 are provided with a plurality of longitudinal guide rails. The edges of the bottom hole 32 of the shooting guide and limiting cage 3 are provided with sliders that slide up and down along the longitudinal guide rails. The longitudinal guide rails and the sliders reduce friction and facilitate adjustment of the distance between the bottom hole 32 of the shooting guide and limiting cage 3 and the bottom surface of the insect cage 1.

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the assembled small insect behavior recorder further includes a lighting lamp 5, which is arranged in the insect cage 1. The lighting lamp 5 can enhance the light in the insect cage 1, on the one hand, improving the shooting effect, and on the other hand, avoiding the brightness difference between the inside and outside of the insect cage 1.

[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the assembled small insect behavior recorder also includes a brightness controller 6, a first brightness sensor 7, and a second brightness sensor 8. The first brightness sensor 7 is located inside the insect cage 1, and the second brightness sensor 7 is located outside the insect cage 1. The brightness controller 6 is connected to the lighting 5, the first brightness sensor 7, and the second brightness sensor 8. The brightness controller 6 adjusts the brightness of the lighting 5 to ensure that the values of the first brightness sensor 7 and the second brightness sensor 8 are the same. This ensures that the brightness inside and outside the insect cage 1 is the same, which is consistent with the insects' natural activity habits.

[0039] The assembled small insect behavior recorder provided in the embodiment of the present application can limit the insect activity range by setting a shooting guide limit cage 3, and can realize that the shooting area of the recorder is located within the range limited by the shooting guide limit cage 3, without causing blind spots in the shooting area, thereby improving the shooting efficiency.

[0040] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own focus. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0041] The above is a detailed introduction to an assembled small insect behavior recorder provided in an embodiment of the present application.
