Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of breeding devices, and in particular relates to a feeding and lodging separated arthropod breeding device. Background Art
[0002] The Arthropoda phylum is the largest group in the animal kingdom, encompassing over one million invertebrate species, representing nearly 84% of all animal species. Its members are diverse. These bilaterian invertebrates are covered with a partially chitinous cuticle, which is periodically shed. This cuticle serves as a protective barrier and exoskeleton, providing a surface for muscle attachment. Their muscle systems are complex, with some specialized for flight and vocalization. Their limbs have joints in their exoskeletons, earning them the name arthropod. They possess numerous specialized sensory organs, and their body cavity has degenerated, replaced by a hemocoel.
[0003] Arthropods have already established a niche in the pet world, including members of the superfamily Scarabaeidae, Carabidae, Formicidae, Mantodea, Gryllidae, Araneae, and Scorpionidae. Most arthropods exhibit cannibalistic behavior, requiring minimal cannibalism during breeding. Arthropods in their molting period are vulnerable and vulnerable, requiring protection. Separate breeding is essential, but existing technology lacks the equipment or devices to allow for individual breeding. Mixed breeding often results in cannibalism, leading to the death or injury of arthropods. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to design a feeding and lodging separation type arthropod breeding device, which realizes single-body breeding and separate feeding and lodging settings, and is beneficial to the observation of characteristic objects and the control of variables.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is as follows:
[0006] A food and accommodation separated arthropod breeding device is characterized in that: the breeding device consists of a support part, a breeding storage box and a breeding unit, the breeding unit is placed above the support part, and the breeding storage box is installed below the support part; a slot fixing bracket is provided on the upper surface of the support part, and a raised boss is raised in the middle of the breeding unit, which divides the breeding unit into a living area and a feeding area, and the breeding unit is clamped on the slot fixing bracket by forming an external groove through the boss.
[0007] Furthermore, the support portion is in the shape of a table top, and water retaining steps are provided around the table top, and a drain outlet is provided at one of the water retaining steps.
[0008] Furthermore, a feed box hook groove is installed on the lower surface of the support portion, and a limiting opening is provided on the feed box hook groove.
[0009] Furthermore, the feeding storage box is in the shape of a box body, a pull ring is provided at the front of the box body, corresponding to the hook groove of the feed box, side grooves are provided around the mouth of the box body, and limiting notches are provided on the side grooves.
[0010] Furthermore, the breeding unit is in the shape of a box, and the edge of the box mouth is designed with longitudinal connecting hook plates and transverse connecting hook plates to achieve splicing of adjacent breeding units.
[0011] Furthermore, the middle boss of the breeding unit is designed to be stepped, and water level control ports are designed in the living area and feeding area.
[0012] The following beneficial effects can be achieved through the above technical solution:
[0013] This utility model is specifically designed for arthropod breeding. Its multiple breeding units enable individual breeding of the animals, reducing cannibalism. Raised bosses within the breeding units divide the units into living and feeding areas, achieving separate accommodations for the animals and protecting them during molting. Each unit allows for specific observation of the animals and control of influencing variables.
[0014] The utility model prevents and reduces cannibalism among arthropods as a whole, effectively protects arthropods with a molting period, and is very suitable for leisure and entertainment or specific experimental sample observation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0031] like Figure 1-13 As shown, a feeding and lodging separated arthropod breeding device is composed of a support part 2, a breeding storage box 3 and a breeding unit 1. The breeding unit is placed above the support part, and the breeding storage box is installed below the support part; a slot fixing bracket 202 is provided on the upper surface of the support part, and a raised boss 103 is raised in the middle of the breeding unit. The boss divides the breeding unit into a living area 104 and a feeding area 105. The breeding unit is clamped on the slot fixing bracket by forming an external groove through the boss.
[0032] Example:
[0033] The support part 2 plays a major connecting and supporting role. Its structural layer is in the shape of a desktop or disk. Its support table 201 and the slot fixing bracket 202 are used to support the breeding unit 1. A water retaining step is set on the edge of the support table 201, and a drain port 203 is opened on the water retaining step. When the water level in the breeding unit leaks to the support table 201 and the water level reaches the drain port 203, the excess water is discharged from here to ensure that the water level in the breeding unit is maintained at a suitable water level. It is worth noting that the lower surface of the support table 201 is provided with a hook groove 206 for moving the side groove of the feed storage box, and a leg hook groove limit port 205 is provided at one end of the hook groove. When the feed storage box is installed, the limit notch 303 on one side of the feed storage box will cooperate with the leg hook groove limit port 205 at the bottom of the support table 201 to achieve a simple locking limit to prevent the feed storage box from falling off when the device is moved. Among them, the feed storage box 3 is mainly used for temporary storage of feed.
[0034] The breeding unit 1 is used for breeding animals, which is convenient for breeding and observation. There is a boss 103 in the middle of the breeding unit, which is used to separate the living area 104 from the feeding area 105. A raised plane is provided at the bottom of the living area and the feeding area, and a water tank is provided around the raised plane. A water level control port 106 is provided on the side wall of the water tank. When the water level reaches a certain height, excess water will flow out from the water level control port. The boss provided in the middle of the breeding unit is stepped, specifically with a stepped surface. Animals can crawl into the feeding area from here to hunt and eat, and crawl back to the living area after eating. Usually, the feed refers to live feed (such as insects). For example, when breeding scorpions or centipedes, the live feed (insects) cannot crawl over the boss to reach the living area of the animals. The scorpion and centipede can crawl over the boss, so that they can rest in a safe place when they shed their shells, and crawl to the feeding area to hunt insects when hunting. It is worth noting that the evaporation of water vapor in the bottom water tank can improve the environmental humidity.
[0035] It is worth mentioning that the breeding unit is provided with a longitudinal connecting hook plate 101 and a transverse connecting hook plate 102 for splicing together several independent adjacent breeding units. The number of transverse and longitudinal splicing can be set as needed.
[0036] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, various equivalent modifications to the present invention are within the scope of protection of the claims attached to this application.
