Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of silkworm rearing tools, and in particular to a combined cocooning tool for silkworm rearing. Background Technology
[0002] Silkworm cocoons, also known as silkworm mounds, are tools used by silkworms to spin silk and form cocoons. They are typically made of materials such as bamboo, wood, and grass. The design of silkworm cocoons aims to provide a suitable environment for silkworms to spin silk and form cocoons successfully. The shape and structure of silkworm cocoons vary depending on the materials and methods used, but the common goal is to provide a comfortable and suitable environment for the silkworms to complete the cocoon-forming process. The use of silkworm cocoons is crucial for improving the quality and yield of cocoons; therefore, choosing appropriate materials and designs is very important for sericulture. Square-grid silkworm cocoons are made of cardboard with rectangular perforations. Each cocoon has over one hundred holes, with each hole supporting one silkworm spinning its cocoon. The rational structure allows silkworm urine to drain outside the cocoon, preventing cross-contamination and resulting in whiter cocoons. It significantly reduces the number of double-cocoons, increases the cocooning rate and the rate of cocoon unwinding. The double-layer hanging system ensures high utilization of the cocoon chamber, extends its service life, and facilitates storage.
[0003] The existing silkworm rearing equipment cannot raise silkworms at different stages together, and large and small silkworms cannot be separated. The different times when they spin cocoons make it difficult to determine the exact time to harvest the cocoons. The existing silkworm rearing equipment cannot be combined or disassembled, the size of the silkworm rearing area cannot be changed, and it is inconvenient to move the equipment, resulting in low flexibility. The existing silkworm rearing equipment cannot filter and collect silkworm excrement, and it is only convenient for cleaning silkworm excrement, which cannot realize the utilization value of silkworm excrement.

[0019] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] This utility model discloses a combined cocooning device for silkworm rearing, comprising a square grid cluster 1, connecting side plates 2, and a rearing tray 3. The square grid cluster 1 has a "square grid" shape on the front and is suspended at the bottom. The square grid cluster 1 is composed of multiple square holes arranged in an array, with each hole supporting one silkworm spinning silk and forming a cocoon. The structure is reasonable, avoiding cross-contamination and improving the quality of the silkworm cocoons. Two connecting side plates 2 are provided and fixed to the left and right sides of the square grid cluster 1, respectively. The sides of the square grid cluster 1 are inserted into the connecting side plates 2, and the front ends of the two connecting side plates 2 are connected to each other via connecting rods 24. The two connecting side plates 2 are assembled with one square grid cluster 1. The assembly process is as follows. Simple and easy to disassemble and clean, the square cluster 1 is equipped with a breeding tray 3. The left and right sides of the breeding tray 3 are slidably connected to the inside of the connecting side plate 2. The front width of the breeding tray 3 is equal to the front width of the square cluster 1, and the side length of the breeding tray 3 is equal to the bottom length of the connecting side plate 2. The breeding tray 3 can be pulled out and pushed in. The square cluster 1 and the breeding tray 3 are combined into a set of clusters through the connecting side plate 2. The front end of the outer side of the connecting side plate 2 is equipped with a buckle 26, and the rear end of the connecting side plate 2 is fixed with a buckle 27. The buckle 26 and the buckle 27 form a snap fastener. The two sets of clusters are snapped together by the snap fastener, which makes it easy to increase or decrease the silkworm rearing area. The square cluster 1 includes a cluster net 11, a back plate 12, and connecting blocks 13. The cluster net 11 is a mesh with a certain depth. The mesh inside the cluster net 11 is for silkworms to spin cocoons. The back plate 12 is set at the rear end of the cluster net 11, which closes the back of the cluster net 11. When a single cluster is used, the back plate 12 prevents silkworms from crawling out of the silkworm rearing area through the cluster net 11. When multiple clusters are used in combination, the back plate 12 can isolate the space between the clusters, enabling the co-rearing of silkworms at different stages and avoiding mixed rearing. The connecting blocks 13 are fixed on the left and right sides of the cluster net 11. There are three connecting blocks 13 arranged vertically on each side of the cluster net 11. The cluster net 11 is fixed to the inside of the connecting side plate 2 via the connecting blocks 13. The connecting method is convenient for disassembly, cleaning, or replacement. When the rearing is stopped in winter, the cluster can also be disassembled and stored, saving the space occupied by the cluster. See details. Figure 1 , Figure 2 .
[0021] The connecting side plate 2, which assembles the clusters, can also connect the clusters together. The connecting side plate 2 includes a plate body 21, a plug hole 22, a rod groove 23, a connecting rod 24, a slide rail 25, a buckle 26, and a buckle ring 27. The plate body 21 is in the shape of a right trapezoid. The bottom end of the plate body 21 is the right-angled leg of the right trapezoid, the front end of the plate body 21 is the upper base of the right trapezoid, the rear end of the plate body 21 is the lower base, and the top end of the plate body 21 is a hypotenuse. The plug hole 22 is located at the rear end of the plate body 21, and the position of the plug hole 22 corresponds to the plug block 13. The plug block 13 is inserted into the plug hole 22. The cluster mesh 11 is fixed between the two plates 21 through the plug block 13 and the plug hole 22. The cluster mesh 11 and the connecting side plate 2 are assembled through the plug block 13 and the plug hole 22. The inner side of the plate body 21 is provided with a rod groove 23. Welded to the top front end of the plate 21, the connecting rod 24 is inserted and fixed in the rod groove 23 at both ends. The two plates 21 are connected and fixed by the connecting rod 24. The connecting rod 24 inserts and fixes the front end of the plate 21, which increases the stability of the cluster and facilitates disassembly. A slide rail 25 is provided near the bottom of the plate 21. The breeding tray 3 is slidably connected to the inside of the plate 21 via the slide rail 25. The breeding tray 3 can be pulled out from the inside of the plate 21 for easy cleaning. The buckle 26 is welded to the front end of the outer side of the plate 21. A buckle 27 is welded to the rear end of the outer side of the plate 21. The buckle 26 is snapped into the buckle 27. The plates 21 of the two sets of clusters are snapped together by the buckle 26 and the buckle 27, and multiple clusters are combined. The number of clusters used can be flexibly increased or decreased according to the number of silkworms, and the land area and cluster resources are rationally allocated. The breeding drawer 3 includes a drawer 31, a slider 32, rollers 33, a mesh tray 34, a leaf-laying net 35, and a sand-leaving area 36. The slider 32 is located on the left and right sides of the drawer 31. Rollers 33 are arranged on the top and bottom of the slider 32, and the rollers 33 are connected to the slider 32 by bearings. The drawer 31 is slidably connected to the slide rail 25 of the plate 21 via the slider 32 and rollers 33. This sliding connection facilitates the placement of mulberry leaves and the collection of silkworm excrement. The mesh tray 34 is located inside the drawer 31, and a leaf-laying net 35 is placed on the mesh tray 34. The leaf-laying net 35 is secured inside the drawer 31 via the mesh tray 34. The bottom of the drawer 31 is the sand-leaving area 36, located below the leaf-laying net 35. During the breeding process, the silkworm excrement produced leaks from the leaf-laying net 35 into the sand-leaving area 36. After collection in the sand-leaving area 36, the drawer 31 can be pulled out, the leaf-laying net 35 removed, and the silkworm excrement in the sand-leaving area 36 can be poured out.
