Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of turtle breeding technology, specifically relating to an isolation breeding box for juvenile turtles. Background Technology

[0002] In turtle farming, the design of juvenile turtle isolation enclosures aims to provide a good growth environment for young turtles. These enclosures need to meet the growth needs of juvenile turtles, including space and environmental factors. In the natural environment, juvenile turtles face many challenges to survival, such as space competition, water quality changes, and temperature differences. Artificial enclosures allow for better control of these factors, improving the survival rate and growth quality of juvenile turtles.

[0003] While existing turtle breeding tanks can improve the survival rate and growth quality of hatchlings, most hatchling isolation breeding tanks raise hatchlings together. On the one hand, this restricts the hatchlings' activity space; on the other hand, it may lead to competition for food among hatchlings, causing weaker hatchlings to be unable to meet their growth needs, and other problems unsuitable for hatchling growth. In addition, when a sick hatchling appears in a group of hatchlings raised together, it is easy to spread the disease to the other healthy hatchlings raised together. In other words, existing hatchling isolation breeding tanks cannot guarantee that hatchlings can grow in a suitable environment.

[0004] In addition, during the transportation and stacking of existing juvenile turtle isolation breeding boxes, the internal structure of most of them is directly installed on the box body through the mounting groove inside the box body. The internal structure of the box body is prone to mutual compression and deformation, resulting in poor overall durability.

[0005] There is an urgent need for a durable and suitable terrarium for isolating and raising juvenile turtles, providing them with a suitable growth environment. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a hatchling isolation breeding box to solve the problems that the hatchling isolation breeding box cannot guarantee that the hatchlings can grow in a suitable environment and has poor durability.

[0007] One embodiment of this utility model provides an isolation and rearing box for juvenile turtles, comprising:

[0008] The breeding box is used to hold the barrier components and isolate the external environment to provide a safe and stable overall breeding environment;

[0009] Barrier components are used to separate hatchlings within the breeding enclosure to provide suitable space for their growth.

[0010] The barrier assembly includes a submerged plate, an isolation plate, and a connector. The isolation plate is mounted on the submerged plate via the connector, and the barrier assembly is mounted inside the breeding tank via the submerged plate.

[0011] The breeding box is equipped with a support block inside, and the submersible plate is installed inside the breeding box through the support block;

[0012] It should be noted that the breeding tank is also equipped with heating equipment, which is used to maintain the water temperature in the breeding tank within a range suitable for the growth of young turtles. Specifically, the water temperature can be maintained between 25-28℃.

[0013] It should be noted that the ideal number of juvenile turtles to be isolated by the barrier components is 1-3, that is, the ideal number of juvenile turtles to be raised on each submerged board is 2-6, and they should be raised as evenly as possible on both sides of the barrier board. This arrangement can provide ample space for each juvenile turtle to move around.

[0014] It should be noted that in this plan, staff can add filtered water from the outside to a level suitable for the growth of juvenile turtles, thus providing a good and stable aquatic environment. The specific water level can be about the level of the submersible plate, with a slight elevation above the plate being preferable. When it is time to change the water, staff can simply grab the connector and lift it vertically upwards to remove the barrier component and its components, along with the juvenile turtles, from the breeding tank. Then, the water in the breeding tank should be poured out, and after cleaning, filtered water should be added again to a level suitable for the growth of juvenile turtles. Finally, the barrier component and its components, along with the juvenile turtles, should be placed back into the support block inside the breeding tank.

[0015] In this solution, the breeding tank, in conjunction with the barrier components, isolates the hatchlings, thereby avoiding the problems of limited activity space and food competition that may result from intensive rearing. It also prevents the spread of diseases among hatchlings in the same breeding tank, thus avoiding the situation where all hatchlings in the breeding tank become infected, providing a suitable growth environment for the hatchlings. In addition, the design of the barrier components facilitates water changes for staff and reduces the wear and tear on the breeding tank caused by frequent disassembly and assembly of the barrier components during water changes, significantly reducing potential safety hazards caused by poor durability.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. This utility model, through the design of the submersible plate and the isolation plate, the ventilation holes on the submersible plate and the connection method of the two, ensures air circulation in each space and provides a suitable living environment for young turtles.

[0018] 2. This utility model, through the design of a submerged board and a partition board, separates the baby turtles into different spaces on the submerged board. The ideal number of baby turtles to be raised on each submerged board is 2-6, and they are evenly distributed on both sides of the partition board. This provides the baby turtles with ample space to move around and can effectively avoid food competition among the baby turtles, so that each baby turtle can get enough nutrition.

[0019] 3. This utility model, through the design of a submerged plate and an isolation plate, separates the baby turtles, which can prevent the spread of diseases among the baby turtles. When a baby turtle gets sick, it will not affect other healthy baby turtles, thus improving the survival rate and growth quality of the baby turtles.

[0020] 4. The design of the submerged plate, the isolation plate, and the connectors in this utility model allows workers to easily lift the barrier components and baby turtles vertically upwards by grabbing the connectors, so as to conveniently remove them for water changing operations. This reduces the wear and tear on the enclosure caused by frequent operations and improves the convenience of water changing for workers. In addition, the cooperation between the barrier components and the support blocks ensures the stability of the submerged plate, thereby enhancing the durability of the enclosure.

[0021] In one embodiment, the connector includes a horizontal connecting groove and a vertical connecting groove, a secondary connecting plate is provided on the submersible plate, the submersible plate is installed in the horizontal connecting groove through the secondary connecting plate, and the isolation plate is installed in the vertical connecting groove.

[0022] In one embodiment, the isolation plate has a notch, and the vertical connecting groove has a locking protrusion inside. The isolation plate is installed on the locking protrusion through the notch.

[0023] In this solution, by installing the isolation plate on the engaging protrusion through the notch, the isolation plate and the connector can be fixedly connected, allowing the staff to directly grab the isolation plate to complete the overall isolation component, further improving the convenience of the staff's water change work.

[0024] In one embodiment, a fence is provided along the edge of the submersible slab.

[0025] In this solution, the fence can prevent turtles from slipping off the submersible plate when workers grab the isolation components, greatly reducing the occurrence of turtles slipping off the plate when workers are changing the water.

[0026] In one embodiment, the breeding tank further includes a heater located below the submerged plate.

[0027] In one embodiment, the breeding box is provided with a wiring hole, and the submerged plate is also provided with a limiting hole. Both the wiring hole and the limiting hole are used to limit the power cord of the heater.

[0028] In one embodiment, a limiting member is provided at the bottom of the breeding box, which is used to limit the portion of the heater power cord located below the submersible plate;

[0029] It should be noted that the heater can be a heating rod. The heating rod is connected to an external power source via a power cord. In actual use, the heating rod can be placed horizontally at the bottom of the breeding box. The power cord passes through the limiting piece at the bottom of the breeding box, the limiting hole on the sleeping plate, and the wiring hole on the breeding box in sequence to achieve stable placement of the heating rod and the power cord in the breeding box.

[0030] It should be noted that the number of limiting holes and limiting components can be set to two, and the two limiting holes can be opened at both ends of the submersible plate, so that the power cord of the heating rod can extend from the limiting hole at either end of the submersible plate, improving the convenience for staff to place the heating rod and adjust the power cord of the heating rod.

[0031] In this solution, the heater and its power cord can be stably installed in the breeding box by means of the limiting holes on the submerged plate, the limiting parts at the bottom of the breeding box, and the wiring holes on the breeding box, which improves the convenience for staff to place the heater and adjust the heater power cord.

[0032] In one embodiment, a support block is provided inside the breeding box, and the submersible plate is installed inside the breeding box through the support block.

[0033] One embodiment also includes a lid with ventilation holes.

[0034] In this solution, by setting a lid, most of the external environmental disturbances can be isolated from the breeding tank, thus providing a safe and stable growth environment for the hatchlings. The vent allows for free exchange of air between the inside and outside of the breeding tank, and also allows sunlight to enter the breeding tank through the vent to provide the sunlight needed for the hatchlings' growth.

[0035] In one embodiment, the lid of the box is provided with a groove, and the bottom of the breeding box is provided with a recessed structure, the width of which is adapted to the groove.

[0036] In this solution, the groove and recess structure enables the stacking of breeding boxes, thereby saving the planar space occupied by the breeding boxes and making it easier for staff to store multiple breeding boxes. Attached Figure Description

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1-9 One embodiment of this utility model provides a juvenile turtle isolation and rearing box, comprising:

[0052] Breeding box 1 is used to support the barrier components and isolate the external environment to provide a safe and stable overall breeding environment;

[0053] The barrier component 2 is used to isolate the hatchlings in the breeding tank 1 in order to provide suitable space conditions for the hatchlings to grow.

[0055] The breeding box 1 is provided with a support block 11, and the submersible plate 21 is installed inside the breeding box 1 through the support block 11;

[0056] It should be noted that the breeding tank 1 is also equipped with a heating device, which is used to maintain the water temperature in the breeding tank within a range suitable for the growth of young turtles. Specifically, the water temperature can be maintained between 25-28℃.

[0057] It should be noted that the ideal number of baby turtles to be isolated by the barrier component 2 is 1-3, that is, the ideal number of baby turtles to be raised on each submerged plate 21 is 2-6, and they should be raised as evenly as possible on both sides of the isolation plate 22. This arrangement can provide sufficient space for each baby turtle to move around.

[0058] It should be noted that in this solution, staff can add filtered water from the outside to a level suitable for the growth of young turtles, thus providing a good and stable aquatic environment. The specific water level can be about submerged in the submersible plate 21, or slightly higher than the submersible plate 21. When it is necessary to change the water, staff can directly grab the connector 23 and lift it vertically upward to remove the barrier component 2 and its components, along with the young turtles, from the breeding tank 1. Then, the water in the breeding tank 1 is poured out, and after cleaning, filtered water is added again to a level suitable for the growth of young turtles. Finally, the barrier component 2 and its components, along with the young turtles, are placed back into the support block 11 inside the breeding tank 1.

[0059] In this embodiment, the breeding tank 1, in conjunction with the barrier component 2, can isolate the hatchlings, thus avoiding the problems of limited activity space and food competition that may result from centralized breeding. It also prevents the spread of diseases among hatchlings in the same breeding tank 1, which could lead to the infection of all hatchlings inside the breeding tank 1, providing a suitable growth environment for the hatchlings. In addition, the design of the barrier component 2 facilitates water changes for staff and reduces the wear and tear on the breeding tank 1 caused by frequent disassembly and assembly of the barrier component 2 during water changes, significantly reducing potential safety hazards caused by poor durability.

[0062] 2. Through the design of the submerged plate 21 and the partition plate 22, the juvenile turtles are separated into different spaces on the submerged plate 21. The ideal number of juvenile turtles to be raised on each submerged plate 21 is 2-6, and they are evenly distributed on both sides of the partition plate 22. This provides the juvenile turtles with ample space to move around and can effectively avoid food competition among the juvenile turtles, so that each juvenile turtle can get enough nutrition.

[0063] 3. This utility model, through the design of the submerged plate 21 and the isolation plate 22, isolates the baby turtles, which can prevent the spread of diseases among the baby turtles.

[0068] In one embodiment, the submerged plate 21 is provided with a fence 212 along its edge.

[0069] In this embodiment, the fence 212 can prevent turtles from slipping off the submersible plate 21 when workers grab the isolation component 2, greatly reducing the occurrence of turtles slipping off when workers are changing the water.
