Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention discloses a device suitable for artificially raising butterfly larvae on a large scale. Background Art
[0002] Butterflies have become popular ornamental insects due to their brilliant colors and graceful fluttering among flowers. They are brightly colored, eye-catching, and have high artistic and ornamental value. These groups have important ornamental, economic, and scientific education values for humans. Therefore, various handicrafts made from butterflies are very popular in the domestic and foreign markets in China and are expensive. A large number of butterflies are captured and made into specimens and handicrafts for sale. Most of these butterfly specimens come from nature, causing the wild population to decrease rapidly. Some rare butterfly species are in danger of extinction, causing certain damage to the germplasm resources and ecological environment of butterflies. In order to reduce the capture of butterflies in nature and the damage to the natural environment and meet market needs, the technology of artificially breeding butterflies is developing rapidly. At present, the artificial breeding device for butterfly larvae mainly relies on plastic basins or breeding cages for breeding. Although these breeding tools are easy to obtain, simple in structure, and low in cost, they still have the following disadvantages during use:
[0003] (1) Plastic will age and release harmful gases after long-term use. Its short service life will increase the harm to butterfly larvae and increase the mortality rate of larvae. The cage is inconvenient to clean and needs to be cleaned as a whole, and it is not possible to raise it on a large scale.
[0004] (2) The simple structure makes it difficult to replace waste. Although the plastic basins and breeding cages have holes for leaking insect sand, some of the insect sand cannot leak out because the diameter of the holes in the breeding baskets is different. They need to be picked out manually, which inevitably disturbs the butterfly larvae. At the same time, since they cannot be cleaned in time, the growth environment of the butterfly larvae is polluted to a certain extent. Therefore, we propose a device suitable for artificial large-scale breeding of butterfly larvae. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a device suitable for artificial large-scale breeding of butterfly larvae. The device is easy to operate and can achieve large-scale butterfly larvae breeding.

At the same time, it is convenient to replace the host plants when artificially raising butterfly larvae. The nylon gauze can be used to hang the larvae when they pupate. The installed metal gauze can be easily replaced according to the size of the butterfly larvae to prevent insect sand from clogging the metal gauze.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a fixing frame and a locking rod. The fixing frame is fixed to the rear side of the fixing frame. The locking rod has two parts and is slidably connected to the sliding grooves on the rear side of the iron frame. The sliding locking rod is stuck into the interior of the fixing frame to prevent the fixing frame from falling off.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a connecting seat and a bidirectional screw. The connecting seat is fixed to the bottom end of the rear side of the iron frame. The internal rotation of the connecting seat is connected to the bidirectional screw. The threads at both ends of the bidirectional screw are opposite. The bidirectional screw is threadedly connected to the screw hole on the surface of the locking rod. Rotating the bidirectional screw can adjust the position of the locking rod, thereby preventing the locking rod from loosening.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes metal partitions and collection boxes. The metal partitions are evenly distributed inside the iron frame, and the collection boxes are placed on the top surfaces of the metal partitions. The collection boxes placed on the top surfaces of the metal partitions facilitate the collection of fallen insect sand for subsequent cleaning.
[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a metal bent plate and a transparent window. The metal bent plate is placed on the top surface of the metal mesh, and the transparent window is evenly installed on the front side of the door body. The metal bent plate can enclose an independent space for separate breeding of different types of larvae, and the installed transparent window facilitates the viewing of the breeding situation.
[0014] Furthermore, it also includes an information card and an identification frame. The identification frame is evenly fixed on the front side of the door body. The information card is inserted into the interior of the identification frame. The information card inside the identification frame is convenient for recording the information of the larvae, thereby facilitating personnel to check.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the device for artificially raising butterfly larvae on a large scale has the following advantages:
[0016] 1. The use of metal cages can solve the problem that traditional plastic materials are easily aged, damaged or harmful. At the same time, it is convenient to replace host plants when artificially raising butterfly larvae. The nylon gauze can be used to hang the larvae when they pupate. At the same time, the installed metal gauze can be easily replaced according to the size of the butterfly larvae to prevent insect sand from clogging the metal gauze.
[0017] 2. The position of the locking rod can be adjusted by rotating the bidirectional screw so that the locking rod is stuck into the interior of the fixing frame. At the same time, the bidirectional screw has a self-locking function to prevent the locking rod from loosening, thereby preventing the fixing frame from falling off.
[0018] 3. Independent spaces can be enclosed by metal bending plates to allow different types of larvae to be raised separately. The installed transparent windows make it easy to check the breeding situation. The information cards inside the identification racks are convenient for recording the information of the larvae, making it convenient for personnel to check. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
