Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of insect collecting equipment, in particular to a grassland soil insect collecting device. Background Art

[0002] To ensure the integrity of insect specimens collected in the wild, insects are often placed in an alcohol solution. Prior art practices for placing insects in alcohol solutions present several challenges: Insects are captured using a net, and placing them directly into the alcohol solution can easily cause them to climb out of the net. Consequently, collectors often manually remove the insects from the net and then place them in the alcohol solution. This handling process compromises overall capture efficiency and can easily damage the insects.

[0003] Therefore, a grassland soil insect collection device becomes a problem that the whole society needs to solve urgently. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the utility model is: a grassland soil insect collection device, including a soil sample box and an insect collection chamber, the soil sample box is mounted on the collection chamber, the bottom end of the soil sample box is provided with a frustum portion, the bottom frustum portion extends into the interior of the insect collection chamber, a leakage net is provided at the bottom end of the frustum portion, a plurality of first ventilation holes are provided around the top of the soil sample box, and a plurality of second ventilation holes are provided around the top of the insect collection chamber.

[0005] Furthermore, a first cup holder is provided inside the soil sample box, and a first insect attractant cup body is placed in the first cup holder.

[0006] Furthermore, a second cup holder is provided inside the insect collecting chamber, and a second insect attracting cup body is placed in the second cup holder.

[0007] The advantages of utility models compared to existing technologies are:

[0008] The utility model adopts multiple structures such as a soil sample box, an insect collection chamber, a leakage net, a first air vent and a second air vent. By exposing the interior of the soil sample box to the sun, insects in the soil slowly enter the insect collection chamber through the leakage net, eliminating the need to catch insects by hand, thus avoiding damage to the insects during the collection process.

[0009] The utility model is provided with a first cup holder inside the soil sample box and a second cup holder inside the insect collection chamber, which can be used to place an insect trap cup body. By placing a solution in the insect trap cup body, insects can be collected. Combined with the structural setting of the above-mentioned insect collection chamber, it is possible to achieve dual collection of insects, without the need for manual collection by staff. This can not only improve the efficiency of insect collection, but also avoid damage to insects during the collection process, thereby ensuring the integrity of the insect collection. There is no need to catch insects by hand, which avoids damage to insects during the collection process. In this way, small soil insects or larvae can be collected, and the soil insects obtained are more objective and accurate, avoiding problems such as incomplete collection caused by subjective factors during the manual collection process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] The present invention provides a grassland soil insect collection device in a specific implementation, including a soil sample box 1 and an insect collection chamber 2. The soil sample box 1 is mounted on the collection chamber 2. A frustum 3 is provided at the bottom end of the soil sample box 1. The frustum 3 at the bottom end extends into the interior of the insect collection chamber 2. A leakage net 4 is provided at the bottom end of the frustum 3. A plurality of first ventilation holes 5 are provided around the top of the soil sample box 1. A plurality of second ventilation holes 6 are provided around the top of the insect collection chamber 2. The top end of the soil sample box 1 is covered with a rainproof cover 10.

[0020] Example 1:

[0021] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, when the utility model is in use, the collected soil sample can be placed in the soil sample box 1, and the rainproof cover 10 is covered on the top opening of the soil sample box 1. The above-mentioned soil insect collection device is placed in the sun for exposure. As the sampled soil is exposed to the sun, it is slowly dried. Large soil insects that can dig holes in the soil will dig holes downwards. The large soil insects slowly slide downwards into the frustum part 3, and finally enter the insect collection chamber 2 through the leakage net 4 provided at the bottom of the frustum part 3, thereby completing the insect collection process.

[0022] The above-mentioned insect collecting device does not require workers to manually catch insects, which can not only improve the efficiency of insect collection, but also prevent insects from being damaged during the collection process, thereby ensuring the integrity of insect collection.

[0023] Among them, such as Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the first ventilation holes 5 and the second ventilation holes 6 can increase the air permeability of the entire soil insect collecting device.

[0024] Among them, the structural setting of the rainproof cover can be used to keep out rain and prevent sampling insects from flying out.

[0025] Example 2:

[0026] picture Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the soil sample box 1 is provided with a first cup holder 7, within which a first insect attractant cup 8 is placed. The insect collection chamber 2 is provided with a second cup holder 12, within which a second insect attractant cup 9 is placed. The first insect attractant cup 8 is filled with water, alcohol, or an insect attractant solution. The second insect attractant cup 9 is filled with water, alcohol, or an insect attractant solution.

[0027] When collecting insects in this embodiment, the collected soil sample can be placed in the soil sample box 1, and the rainproof cover 10 can be covered on the top opening of the soil sample box 1. The above-mentioned soil insect collection device is placed in the sun for drying. As the sampled soil is exposed to the sun, it is slowly dried. Large soil insects that can dig holes in the soil will dig holes downwards, and the large soil insects will slowly slide downwards into the frustum 3.

[0028] In the sampled soil, there will be small flying soil insects or jumping small soil insects that will escape from the soil. At this time, the insects can be lured by placing the first insect attractant cup 8 and the second insect attractant cup 9 in the soil sample box 1 and the insect collection chamber 2. The insects jump or fly into the first insect attractant cup 8 and the second insect attractant cup 9 to achieve the collection of the insects. The above-mentioned insect collecting device does not require staff to manually catch insects, which can not only improve the efficiency of insect collection, but also avoid damage to insects during the collection process, thereby ensuring the integrity of insect collection.

[0029] In the above embodiment, the soil of the grassland can be directly placed into the soil sample collection box. After the soil is dried by exposure to the sun, the soil insects will crawl out on their own and fall into the insect collection box or fly into the attractant cup.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, in order to facilitate the connection between the soil sample box and the insect collection box, a limiting plate 11 extends from the top of the frustum 3 at the bottom end of the soil sample box 1 to the surrounding areas, so as to facilitate the connection with the top opening of the insect collection chamber 2.

[0031] As a further elaboration of the present invention, the soil sample box 1 and the insect collection chamber 2 are made of transparent materials, and the above structure facilitates the exposure of the sampled soil to the sun.

[0032] The above description of the present invention and its embodiments is non-limiting. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by the above, and does not deviate from the purpose of the present invention, without inventive design, a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
