Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of grass borer breeding, in particular to a grass borer propagation device. Background Art
[0002] The fall borer, also known as the yellow-green striped borer and the beet web borer, belongs to the Lepidoptera, Pyralidae, and Conophaga genus. It is a major migratory pest with a worldwide distribution. It ranks third in the "List of Class I Crop Pests and Diseases (2023)" published by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, after the fall armyworm and migratory locust (Chen Zhiyong, 2021). Because the fall borer is an emergent pest, its larvae damage leaves, leaving veins in a web-like pattern and causing plants to wither and bleach, leading to crop death or even crop failure. The fall borer has a wide host population, particularly sugar beets, soybeans, and sunflowers, but also severely damages corn, sorghum, hemp, and melons. Adult fall borers mate and lay eggs at night, with a density of approximately 200 to as many as 800. Due to its large reproductive output, control of the fall borer is challenging, necessitating increased research and investigation to effectively implement control measures. However, the meadow moth burrows into the soil to pupate and remain dormant in winter, so researchers cannot continue to study its reproduction throughout the year. Therefore, it is necessary to design a device for propagating the meadow moth. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] refer to Figures 1 to 3As shown, a grass borer propagation device described in this embodiment includes a cage body 1, nylon mesh 12 is provided on all sides of the cage body 1, a first zipper 6 is provided on the outer edge of the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1, a sleeve 2 is provided on the outer side of the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1, and a second zipper 7 is provided on the nylon mesh 12 on the side of the cage body 1 close to the sleeve 2. The nylon mesh 12 on the outer side of the sleeve 2 port can be opened by the second zipper 7, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the sleeve 2 port. A support ring 5 is provided on the outer end of the sleeve 2. 5 can stretch out the sleeve 2 to facilitate the quick escape of the grass borer; a jacket 4 is provided at the upper end of the cage body 1, and the cage body 1 holds a wet towel 3 through the jacket 4, and the wet towel 3 covers the upper end of the cage body 1. A water tank 15 is provided on the inside of the cage body 1, and a mesh screen 16 is inserted at the upper end of the water tank 15. A placement slot 17 is opened at the upper end of the mesh screen 16. A tray 14 is inserted at the front of the water tank 15, and the tray 14 is located directly below the mesh screen 16; the length × width × height parameters of the cage body 1 are set to 50 cm × 50 cm × 40 cm.
[0019] refer to Figure 1 The lower end of the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1 is fixedly connected to one side of the front of the cage body 1, and the outer edge of the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1 is movably connected to the cage body 1 through a first zipper 6. By adding a first zipper 6 to the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1, the tray 14 inside the cage body 1 can be easily taken out, which is convenient for regular maintenance and cleaning.
[0020] refer to Figure 1 The left and right sides of the cage body 1 are symmetrically fixed with mounting blocks 11, and a handle 10 is rotatably connected between two adjacent mounting blocks 11 on the outside of the cage body 1. A sponge cover 9 is provided on the outside of the handle 10. By installing the mounting blocks 11 on the left and right sides of the cage body 1 and rotating the mounting handle 10 using the mounting blocks 11, the cage body 1 can be conveniently transferred or carried, and the sponge cover 9 on the outside of the handle 10 can facilitate the user to operate the handle 10.
[0021] refer to Figure 1 The lower end of the cage body 1 is symmetrically fixed with a support 8, and the lower end of the support 8 is fixedly connected with a rubber pad 13. By installing the support 8 at the lower end of the cage body 1, the wear of the bottom of the cage body 1 can be reduced. At the same time, the rubber pad 13 at the lower end of the support 8 can increase the friction and play a buffering role, making the cage body 1 more stable when placed horizontally.
[0022] refer to Figure 2 The lower end of the mesh 16 is symmetrically fixed with a support rod 18, and a slot 20 is opened at the upper end of the water tank 15. The end of the support rod 18 away from the mesh 16 is plugged into the slot 20. By installing the support rod 18 at the lower end of the mesh 16, the mesh 16 can be conveniently inserted into the slot 20 of the water tank 15 through the support rod 18.
[0023] refer to Figure 3 The shape of the water tank 15 is U-shaped, and one end of the tray 14 is plugged into the concave portion of the water tank 15. The U-shaped water tank 15 not only facilitates the proliferation of grass borers, but also facilitates the positioning of the tray 14 and facilitates the removal of the tray 14.
[0024] refer to Figure 2 A handle 19 is fixedly connected to the middle of the front of the tray 14. The handle 19 is U-shaped. By installing the handle 19 on the front of the tray 14, the tray 14 can be easily used.
[0025] Principle and advantages of use: During use, the ventilation of the device can be guaranteed by adding nylon mesh 12 around the cage body 1. At the same time, the water tank 15 inside the cage body 1 and the wet towel 3 at the upper end of the cage body 1 can increase the humidity inside the cage body 1, thereby meeting the humidity requirements of the grass borer. The mesh screen 16 installed on the water tank 15 can facilitate the excretion of the grass borer to leak into the tray 14 for centralized collection. Combined with the first zipper 6, it is convenient to open the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1 to carry out regular maintenance and cleaning of the tray 14, and the placement slot 17 at the upper end of the mesh screen 16 can facilitate the installation of conical bottles. The sleeve 2 on the nylon mesh 12 on the front of the cage body 1 can facilitate the transfer of the expanded grass borer to another box for research, and the handle 10 installed on the outside of the cage body 1 through the mounting block 11 can facilitate the carrying or transfer of the entire cage body 1. In addition, a rubber pad 13 is added to the pillar 8 at the lower end of the cage body 1 to prevent slipping on the bottom of the cage body 1.
