Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of insect biology research, and particularly relates to an experimental device for insects to sense different light environments. Background Art

[0002] Light, a crucial environmental factor in natural ecosystems, plays a crucial role in insect growth and development, as well as their behaviors and activity rhythms, including feeding, mating, egg-laying, and flight. Light wavelength, intensity, and photoperiod can all have beneficial or negative effects on insect development and behavior. Different insect species have varying light requirements and adaptability, with some preferring light while others are sensitive to it. Therefore, studying the effects of light on insect growth, development, and behavior, as well as the mechanisms by which insects respond to and adapt to light, is crucial.

[0003] When studying the effects of light on physiological, biochemical, and molecular biological aspects of insect enzyme activity, researchers often use artificial climate incubators or simple homemade devices to treat insects with light. However, the light source of artificial climate incubators is mostly white light, which cannot meet the needs of treating different light environments (wavelength, intensity, and photoperiod). In addition, the artificial climate incubator has a design structure with multiple vertical rows of light tubes installed on both sides of the box, which has many light points and is different from the irradiation method of natural light. Moreover, the light intensity cannot be adjusted at will. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an insect light environment experimental treatment device with a replaceable light source, adjustable light intensity, and controllable light exposure time.

[0032] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 An experimental device for insects to sense different light environments includes a box 1 and a partition 2 connected to the box 1, the partition 2 divides the interior of the box 1 into a first test area 100, a second test area 200 and a third test area 300, the first test area 100 is connected to a first adjustment component 3, the second test area 200 is connected to a third adjustment component 4, and the third test area 300 is connected to a second adjustment component 5, the first adjustment component 3, the third adjustment component 4 and the second adjustment component 5 are all connected to a lighting component 6, the first adjustment component 3 and the third adjustment component 4 can adjust the height of the lighting component 6, and the second adjustment component 5 can adjust the angle of the lighting component 6.

[0033] Among them, the tops of the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300 are respectively connected to a shading component 7, and the shading component 7 is connected to a heat dissipation component 8; the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300 are provided with heat dissipation holes 9 on the box walls corresponding to the box body 1; the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300 are provided with observation ports 10 on the box walls corresponding to the box body 1.

[0034] A phototaxis test channel 11 is provided between the first test area 100 , the second test area 200 and the third test area 300 .

[0035] Specifically, the illumination component 6 includes a disc-type LED lamp with different wavelengths and different powers. The disc-type LED lamp is equipped with a timing switch and a knob-type wire-controlled switch. The knob-type wire-controlled switch can adjust the illumination intensity of the disc-type LED lamp.

[0036] See Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the phototaxis behavior test channel 11 includes a first test box 111, a second test box 112, a third test box 113, a first channel 114, and a second channel 115. The first test box 111 is located in the first test area 100, the second test box 112 is located in the second test area 200, and the third test box 113 is located in the third test area 300. The first channel 114 passes through the partition 2 and connects to the first test box 111 and the second test box 112. The second channel 115 passes through the partition 2 and connects to the second test box 112 and the third test box 113. The first test box 111, the second test box 112, the third test box 113, the first channel 114, and the second channel 115 are interconnected to form the phototaxis behavior test channel 11.

[0037] A first baffle 116 is connected to one end of the first channel 114 connected to the second test box 112, and a second baffle 117 is connected to one end of the second channel 115 connected to the second test box 112. Transparent box covers 118 are respectively provided on the tops of the first test box 111, the second test box 112, and the third test box 113.

[0038] The first test box 111 , the second test box 112 , the third test box 113 , the first channel 114 , and the second channel 115 are all made of transparent materials.

[0039] The first test box 111, the second test box 112, the third test box 113, the first channel 114 and the second channel 115 are connected by splicing. The first baffle 116 and the second baffle 117 can block the first channel 114 and the second channel 115 respectively.

[0040] The first test box 111, the second test box 112, and the third test box 113 are arranged in the middle of each experimental area, directly below the illumination component 6. When performing selective phototaxis, the insects always move in the phototaxis test channel 11.

[0041] When exploring the selective phototactic behavior of insects, the insects are placed in the corresponding test box according to the light environment and dark environment set in the test area, and the baffle is operated to open and close the phototactic behavior test channel 11 between the test areas, so that the insects can move between the test areas through the phototactic behavior test channel 11.

[0042] The experimental device for insects to sense different light environments provided in the above embodiment can provide three test areas for studying the effects of light on physiological, biochemical and molecular biological aspects such as enzyme activities in insects and testing the selective phototaxis behavior of insects.

[0043] When studying the effects of light on the physiological, biochemical and molecular biological aspects of enzyme activity in insects, taking the first test area 100 of the experimental device as an example, the interior of the first test area 100 is divided into a light source area and a light environment area from top to bottom. The light source area refers to the area where the light component 6 is highly adjusted, and the smooth environment area refers to the experimental treatment area of ​​the insect. When studying the effects of light on enzyme activity in insects, the insects are placed in the light environment area of ​​the first test area 100, and the insects are covered with a transparent culture dish to prevent the insects from running around and to ensure that the light intensity at each insect position is consistent. In order to adjust the smooth environment, the light source area refers to the area where the light component 6 is highly adjusted. The light environment area refers to the experimental treatment area of ​​the insects. The light intensity of the environment area is adjusted by using the first adjusting component 3 to adjust the height of the lighting component 6. By adjusting the height of the LED disc lamp body and the resistance of the adjustment knob switch, the light intensity can be increased or decreased, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the light intensity; the light source can be made into LED disc lamp bodies of different wavelengths and powers according to experimental needs. The diameter of the lamp disc is 10-20 cm, so that the light intensity of the lower light environment area is more uniform. The lamp body is equipped with an adjustable drive, and the light intensity is adjusted by the knob-type wired switch. A timer switch controller is provided at the wire plug to set the switching time of the light.

[0044] When studying the phototactic or photophobic behavior of insects in response to a single light source, using the first, second, and third test zones 100, 200, and 300 as examples, insects were placed in the second test box 112 within the second test zone 200. At this point, the illumination unit 6 within the first test zone 100 was operating, creating a light environment in the first test zone 100, while the illumination unit 6 within the third test zone 300 was deactivated, creating a dark environment in the third test zone 300. The insects were then placed in the second test box 112 within the second test zone 200. The first baffle 116 was inserted into the first channel 114, and the second baffle 117 was inserted into the second channel 115. After the insects had adapted for a period of time, the first and second baffles 116, 117 were removed simultaneously to observe whether the insects would crawl through the first and second channels 114, 115 toward the first test box 111 in the first test zone 100 and the second test box 112 in the second test zone 200. As mentioned above, this provides one light environment and one dark environment.

[0045] To this end, two colors of light environment can also be provided to test the selective phototactic behavior of insects. Taking the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300 as an example, the first test area 100 and the third test area 300 are set as a lighting environment, and the second test area 200 is a dark environment. At this time, the phototactic behavior test channel 11 between the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300 is ensured to be unobstructed, and the insects are placed in the second test box 112 in the second test area 200 to observe whether the insects are active between the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300.

[0046] In short, by setting up three test areas, relevant experiments on insects can be carried out flexibly, providing a corresponding test environment for the flexibility of the experiment.

[0047] Among them, in a more specific embodiment, the box body 1 is a vertical box body structure, and the material of the box body can be designed as a double-layer acrylic structure, the outer layer is a black opaque material, and the inner layer is a white matte material. The length of the box body 1 is 40-60cm, the width is 40-60cm, and the height is 100-150cm. The inner wall of the box body is made of white matte material, which can increase the reflection of light and create a better light environment. The light environment area is 80-100cm high, which is the experimental treatment area for insects. The light source area is 40-60cm high. This area is mainly for hanging lighting components 6. The shading component 7 is an inverted V-shaped shading cover, 10-20cm high, which can be removed. Small exhaust fans are installed on the cover plates on both sides to facilitate heat dissipation of the light source.

[0048] Small ventilation holes, namely heat dissipation holes 9, are provided on the front and rear surfaces of the box body near the connection between the light source area and the light environment area to facilitate air flow in the light source area and achieve better heat dissipation effect.

[0049] In a specific implementation, the light source can be manufactured as a circular LED disc with varying wavelengths and powers, tailored to experimental needs. The disc diameter ranges from 10-20 cm, ensuring uniform light intensity in the lower light zone. The lamp is equipped with an adjustable driver, allowing light intensity to be adjusted via a rotary control. A timer controller is located at the power cord outlet, allowing for customizable on / off times. Light intensity can be adjusted by adjusting the lamp's hanging height and rotating the control to meet experimental needs.

[0050] Therefore, the light source of this experimental device can be customized to meet the needs of the experiment, using LED lights of different wavelengths. It is equipped with an adjustable driver to achieve adjustable light intensity, and a timer switch controller to set the illumination time. This facilitates testing the effects of light sources of different wavelengths on insects under the same light intensity conditions, and can also test the effects of different light intensities or different photoperiods of a fixed wavelength on insects.

[0051] See Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the first adjusting component 3 and the third adjusting component 4 both include a base 31 and a substrate 32 connected to the base 31, the substrate 32 is connected to a mounting plate 33, the mounting plate 33 is symmetrically connected to two guide rails 34, the two guide rails 34 are respectively connected to sliders 35, and the two sliders 35 are connected to a connecting plate 36; wherein, an opening 330 is opened in the middle of the mounting plate 33, a screw rod 37 is passed through the opening 330, one end of the screw rod 37 passes through the substrate 32 and is connected to the base 31, the other end of the screw rod 37 is connected to a rocker 38, a nut 39 is connected to the screw rod 37, the nut 39 is connected to a connecting rod 30, the connecting rod 30 is connected to the connecting plate 36, the connecting plate 36 is connected to a support plate 361, and the lighting component 6 is connected to the support plate 361; wherein, the base 31 is connected to the bottom of the box body 1, and the rocker 38 is located at the top of the light-shielding component 7.

[0052] In the first test area 100, the adjustment principle of the first adjustment component 3 is as follows: the screw rod 37 can be rotated by the rocker 38, causing the screw rod 37 to rotate. When the screw rod 37 rotates, the nut 39 on the screw rod 37 moves up and down on the screw rod 37, thereby allowing the slider 35 to move on the guide rail 34, thereby achieving up and down movement from the support plate 361, and further adjusting the height of the lighting component 6 on the support plate 361. In the third test area 300, the adjustment principle of the third adjustment component 4 is the same as that of the first adjustment component 3.

[0053] See Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, the second adjusting component 5 includes a first connecting rod 51 and a second connecting rod 52. The first connecting rod 51 is obliquely connected to a first connecting block 53, and the second connecting rod 52 is obliquely connected to a second connecting block 54. A rotating rod 55 is connected between the first connecting block 53 and the second connecting block 54. The first connecting block 53, the rotating rod 55 and the second connecting block 54 are arranged in a Z shape. A sleeve rod 551 is connected to the rotating rod 55, and the sleeve rod 551 is connected to a swing rod 56. The swing rod 56 is connected to a rotating column 560. The first connecting rod 51 is connected to a first fixing block 57, and the second connecting rod 52 is connected to a second fixing block 58. The first fixing block 57 and the second fixing block 58 are respectively connected to the inner wall of the box body 1. An arcuate guide rail 59 is connected between the first fixing block 57 and the second fixing block 58. The arcuate guide rail 59 is provided with a guide rail opening 590, and the guide rail opening 590 is connected to the sliding block 50. The rotating column 560 passes through the guide rail opening 590 and is connected to the sliding block 50. The illumination component 6 is connected to the sliding block 50. The first connecting rod 51 is connected to a driving rocker 511, which is located outside the third test area 300.

[0054] Specifically, the specific connection relationship of each component in the second adjusting component 5 is as follows: the first connecting rod 51 and the first connecting block 53 are fixedly connected, the first connecting block 53 and the rotating rod 55 are fixedly connected, the rotating rod 55 and the second connecting block 54 are fixedly connected, and the second connecting block 54 and the second connecting rod 52 are rotatingly connected, that is, the second connecting block 54 can rotate on the second connecting rod 52, and the second connecting rod 52 and the second fixed block 58 are fixedly connected; and the first connecting rod 51 passes through the first fixed block 57 and can rotate on the first fixed block 57; the sleeve rod 551 is sleeved on the rotating rod 55, and a transition fit is adopted, so that the sleeve rod 551 is tightly sleeved on the rotating rod 55 and cannot move up and down on the rotating rod 55; the sleeve rod 551 and the rocker arm 56 are fixedly connected.

[0055] Specifically, the working principle of the second adjustment component 5 in the third test area 300 is: according to the connection relationship between the various components of the second adjustment component 5, when the driving rocker 511 is rotated, it can drive the first connecting rod 51 to rotate, and when the first connecting rod 51 rotates, the second connecting block 54 can rotate on the second connecting rod 52. During this process, the second connecting block 54 tilts relative to the second connecting rod 52, and the second connecting block 54 tilts relative to the second connecting block 54. Since the first connecting block 53, the rotating rod 55, and the second connecting block 54 form a Z-shape, when the first connecting rod 51 rotates, the rotating rod 55 also rotates. Since the rotating rod 55 is located at the tilted position in the middle of the Z-shape, when the lower end of the rotating rod 55 swings outward, the upper end of the rotating rod 55 swings inward, and when the lower end of the rotating rod 55 swings inward, the upper end of the rotating rod 55 swings outward. The entire swing of the rotating rod 55 is restricted by the connecting blocks at both ends, causing the swinging rod 55 to swing with the swinging rod 56. The swinging of the swinging rod 56 pushes the sliding block 50 to slide on the guide rail opening 590. Connecting the illumination unit 6 to the sliding block 50 drives the illumination unit 6 to move on the curved guide rail 59, thereby changing the position and angle of the illumination unit 6.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment, a heat insulation board is respectively provided in the first test area 100, the second test area 200 and the third test area 300, and a connecting hole 13 is provided on the inner wall of the box body 1. The heat insulation board is detachably connected to the connecting hole 13, and the heat insulation board is provided below the lighting component 6.

[0057] The heat insulation board can be a layer of quartz glass to achieve the purpose of heat insulation, because the lamp will generate very high heat when it is at high brightness.

[0058] In a specific embodiment, the observation ports 10 in the first test area 100, the second test area 200, and the third test area 300 are equipped with small doors. The small doors can be made of transparent glass. The observation ports 10 facilitate observation of insects within the test areas. The small doors can be opened at any time to block the observation ports 10. The observation ports 10 can also be used to take insects into and out of the test areas.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, each test area on the box body 1 can also be provided with a separate door. For example, the side of the box body 1 where the observation port 10 is located is provided as a door that can be opened and closed by a hinge, so as to facilitate the replacement of the internal components of the test area.

[0060] In summary, the present invention provides an experimental device for insects to sense different light environments, which can emit light sources of different wavelengths, and the light intensity can be adjusted at will. This is convenient for testing the effects of light source environments of different wavelengths on insects under the same light intensity conditions, and can also test the effects of different light intensities or different light cycles of a fixed wavelength light source on insects. The light source can be customized according to the needs of the experiment, with LED lights of different wavelengths, equipped with an adjustable driver to achieve adjustable light intensity; and equipped with a timer switch controller to set the illumination time.
