[0012] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses a first motor to drive a second gear to rotate, which in turn drives the first gear to drive a screw to rotate. The screw then drives a threaded slider to slide back and forth. The movement of the threaded slider drives two fixed plates to move. The fixed plates drive the atomizing nozzle to move back and forth in the hatching box, spraying water mist evenly inside the hatching box.

[0021] It should be noted that the accompanying drawings are schematic and not to scale. For clarity and convenience, the relative dimensions and proportions of the parts shown are exaggerated or reduced in size; all dimensions are merely illustrative and not limiting. Furthermore, the same reference numerals are used for the same structures, elements, or fittings appearing in more than two drawings to indicate similar features.

[0022] This utility model discloses a device for hatching black soldier fly eggs. (Refer to...) Figure 1-4 A device for hatching black soldier fly eggs includes an incubation box 1 and 23, a support plate 2, and an incubation box 3 for hatching black soldier fly eggs. The support plate 2 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the incubation box 1, dividing the inner space of the incubation box 1 into a first layer and a second layer. The incubation box 3 is installed in both the first layer and the second layer. The incubation box 3 is installed at the bottom of the incubation box 1 and the top of the support plate 2, respectively. A handle 31 is fixedly connected to the front of the incubation box 3, and a first screw 32 is threadedly connected to the inside of the handle 31.

[0023] The top of the incubation box 3 is provided with an atomizing nozzle 9. The water inlet of the atomizing nozzle 9 passes through the fixing plate 7 and is connected to the water supply pipe 8. The water supply pipe 8 is fixedly installed on the fixing plate 7. The atomizing nozzles 9 are arranged at equal intervals above the incubation box 3. The water inlet of the atomizing nozzle 9 is connected to the water supply pipe 8. The water supply pipe 8 and the atomizing nozzle 9 are installed in a sliding mechanism for driving the atomizing nozzle 9 and the water supply pipe 8 to slide back and forth on the incubation box 3.

[0024] The sliding mechanism includes a sliding box 13, a second screw 14, a gear set, a first motor 17, a threaded slider 6, a fixed plate 7, a slider 10, and a slide block 12. The gear assembly includes a second gear 16 and a first gear 15. The interior of the second gear 16 is connected to the output shaft of the second screw 14 for transmission. The second gear 16 and the first gear 15 mesh with each other. The interior of the first gear 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the second screw 14 that passes through the sliding box 13.

[0025] The second screw 14 rotates inside the sliding box 13 and is connected to the threaded slider 6 via a helical drive. Two water supply pipes 8 pass through the inside of the threaded slider 6. One water supply pipe 8 is located on the incubation box 3 at the bottom of the incubation box 1, and the other water supply pipe 8 is located on the incubation box 3 at the top of the support plate 2. Both water supply pipes 8 are connected to the telescopic pipe 4. The water supply pipes 8 are installed on the fixed plate 7. One end of the fixed plate 7 is connected to the slider 10. The bottom of the slider 10 slides inside the slide block 12.

[0026] Specifically, starting the first motor 17 drives the second gear 16 to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 16 drives the first gear 15 to rotate the second screw 14. The rotation of the second screw 14 drives the threaded slider 6 to slide back and forth. The movement of the threaded slider 6 drives the two fixed plates 7 to move. The fixed plates 7 drive the atomizing nozzle 9 to move back and forth in the hatching box 3, spraying water mist evenly inside the hatching box 3. This controls the humidity of the feed inside the hatching box 3 to achieve a balance, preventing uneven humidity of the feed inside the hatching box 3, which would reduce the hatching rate of black soldier fly eggs.

[0027] A heating box 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the incubator 1. A second motor 19 is installed inside the heating box 18. The output shaft of the second motor 19 is driven by a fan blade 20. A heating wire 21 is fixedly installed on one side of the fan blade 20 and mounted on the inner wall of the heating box 18. A gas supply pipe 22 is connected to the heating box 18 on one side. The other end of the gas supply pipe 22 is connected to the first layer of the incubator 1. A gas transmission pipe 221 is connected to one side of the heating box 18. The other end of the gas transmission pipe 221 is connected to the second layer of the incubator 1.

[0028] The support plate 2 has a first slot 5 and a second slot 11 at both ends. The hot air introduced by the air supply pipe 22 is circulated in the incubator 1 through the first slot 5 and the second slot 11. The support plate 2 provides space for the threaded slider 6 to slide, and the second slot 11 provides space for the slider 10 to slide.

[0029] Specifically, starting the heating box 19 drives the fan blades 20 to rotate. The rotating fan blades 20 draw in air from the second layer. When the air passes through the heating wire 21, it is heated and enters the first layer through the air supply pipe 22. The heated air then enters the second layer from the first slot 5 and then returns to the first layer from the second slot 11, thus making the temperature in the incubator 1 uniform.

[0030] The above structural design enables temperature control and increases the hatching rate of black soldier fly eggs.
