Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a drawer type parasitic wasp cyclic feeding box. BACKGROUND

[0002] Parasitic wasps are the most common parasitic insects in farmland ecosystems, belonging to the order of Hymenoptera. They parasitize the larvae, pupae and eggs of insects such as Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera and Diptera, and their offspring hatch to feed on the host to obtain nutrition, thus completing their development and killing the parasitized insects.

[0003] Most parasitic wasps are natural enemies of pests, and they are often used in biological control of pests. For example, the black blue wasp can be used to control cotton red bollworms, and the middle red side groove cocoon bee can parasitize lepidoptera noctuidae such as stick insects. Biological control is an important part of sustainable pest control. It uses local natural enemy resources to control pests economically and environmentally, reducing the use of chemical pesticides, slowing down the development of pest resistance, and being friendly to the environment. It will become a research hotspot in future pest control.

[0004] The propagation of natural enemies is an important way to carry out biological control. In order to obtain more parasitic wasps, a large number of parasitic wasps need to be propagated and fed, such as the parasitic wasp collection and feeding device disclosed in patent CN216906490U. However, the existing devices for feeding parasitic wasps are not sealed, and there are problems such as easy escape of parasitic wasps during feeding and replacement, and difficulty in collecting and processing garbage generated during feeding such as feces and broken leaves. In addition, the eggs produced by parasitic wasps are also mixed with garbage such as broken leaves near the parasites, which is not conducive to the effective collection of the offspring of parasitic wasps. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the above-mentioned features and advantages of this utility model more easily understood, specific embodiments are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited thereto.

[0031] refer to Figures 1 to 9

[0032] A drawer-type parasitic wasp recirculating rearing box includes a rearing layer box 20 with an open top. A horizontally pull-out top cover 10 is installed at the top of the rearing layer box to seal the upper port of the rearing layer box. A bee release hole 22 is provided on one side wall of the rearing layer box and a sealing mechanism is installed. A detachable filter screen 30 is horizontally provided at the lower end of the rearing layer box so that waste can automatically fall into the waste collection box of the next layer through the filter screen. A waste collection box 40 is detachably installed at the lower end of the rearing layer box and below the filter screen to collect waste such as insect droppings and broken leaves during the rearing process.

[0033] In this embodiment, in order to enable the feeding layer box to be pulled out laterally, the inner wall of the lower end of the upper cover is provided with a first sliding groove 11 on both sides, and the upper end of the feeding layer box is provided with a first sliding rail 21 that cooperates with the first sliding groove on both sides.

[0034] In this embodiment, to prevent parasitic wasps from flying away during leaf replacement, a horizontal slot 12 is provided at the lower part of the upper cover. This horizontal slot extends from the front end of the upper cover to the inner wall of its rear end and is equipped with an insert plate 50 for inserting into the slot to form an isolation cavity within the upper cover. During the rearing process, when leaf replacement is required, the parasitic wasps are driven into the upper cover (a male-to-female ratio of 1:1, preferably up to 5 pairs), and the insert plate is inserted to isolate the wasps within the isolation cavity formed in the upper cover. The rearing layer box is then pulled outwards for leaf replacement. After replacement, the rearing layer box is pushed back in to seal the upper end of the rearing layer box, and finally, the insert plate is removed.

[0035] In this embodiment, to prevent parasitic wasps from escaping from the opening of the transverse slot when the insert plate is not inserted, a cover plate 14 is provided on the inner wall of the front end of the upper cover to cover the opening 13 of the transverse slot. The upper end of the cover plate is hinged to the upper cover via a first pin. A first torsion spring is provided on the first pin, one end of which abuts against the cover plate, and the other end of the first torsion spring is connected to the upper cover, so that the cover plate always covers the opening of the transverse slot when the insert plate is not inserted. In another embodiment, if the height of the transverse slot is small, the cover plate may not be required.

[0036] In this embodiment, in order to make the feeding box breathable, the top of the upper cover is provided with a number of ventilation holes 16, and the ventilation holes are covered with a breathable membrane 17.

[0037] In this embodiment, to prevent parasitic wasps from escaping, the sealing mechanism includes a baffle 23 disposed on the inner side of the rearing layer box to cover the wasp release hole. The upper end of the baffle is hinged to the rearing layer box via a second pin 24. A second torsion spring 25 is disposed on the second pin, with one end abutting against the baffle and the other end abutting against the rearing layer box, thereby ensuring that the baffle always covers the wasp release hole. When releasing wasps, the baffle is opened by a glass tube, and the parasitic wasps are released. When the glass tube is pulled out, the baffle covers the wasp release hole and fits against the inner wall of the rearing layer box. The wasp release hole can also be used as a point of leverage for fingers when pulling out the rearing layer box.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to make the baffle fit more tightly with the honeycomb hole, a gasket layer 26 is provided on the side of the baffle that fits with the honeycomb hole.

[0039] In this embodiment, to facilitate filter replacement, a filter slot 27 is provided laterally at the lower end of the rearing layer box, extending from the front end of the rearing layer box to the inner wall of the rear end of the rearing layer box, so that the filter can be inserted into the filter slot. The mesh size of the filter is 60 mesh. In addition, the filter can be replaced to collect insect eggs.

[0040] In this embodiment, in order to achieve a pull-out fit between the garbage collection box and the feeding layer box and to facilitate the disassembly of the garbage collection box, a second sliding groove 28 is provided laterally on both sides of the lower end of the feeding layer box and below the filter slot. A second sliding rail 41 that cooperates with the second sliding groove is provided on both sides of the upper end of the garbage collection box.

[0041] In this embodiment, the upper front side of the feeding layer box is provided with a first side baffle 29 that protrudes upward and is used to fit against the outer wall of the upper cover, so that the feeding layer box and the upper cover fit together more tightly when inserted. The upper front side of the waste collection box is provided with a second side baffle 42 that protrudes upward and is used to fit against the outer wall of the feeding layer box, so that the waste collection box and the feeding layer box fit together more tightly when connected as one unit.

[0042] In this embodiment, the feeding layer box, the top cover, and the garbage collection box are all made of transparent material to allow for observation of the conditions inside each box.

[0043] In this embodiment, one side wall of the waste collection box is also provided with a beehive opening and a sealing mechanism for the beehive opening, so that the waste collection box and the feeding layer box are interchangeable. The sealing mechanism on the waste collection box has the same structure as the sealing mechanism on the feeding layer box.

[0044] If the terms "first" and "second" are used in the above description to define the components, those skilled in the art should know that the use of "first" and "second" is only for the convenience of distinguishing the components in the description. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning.

[0045] If this utility model discloses or relates to mutually fixedly connected parts or structural components, then unless otherwise stated, a fixed connection can be understood as: a detachable fixed connection (e.g., using bolts or screws) or a non-detachable fixed connection (e.g., riveting or welding). Of course, mutually fixed connections can also be replaced by an integral structure (e.g., manufactured using a casting process) (except where it is obviously impossible to use an integral forming process).

[0046] In addition, unless otherwise stated, the terms used to indicate positional relationships or shapes in any of the technical solutions disclosed in this utility model above include states or shapes that are similar to, close to, or approximate with them.

[0047] Any component provided by this utility model can be assembled from multiple individual components, or it can be a single component manufactured by a one-piece molding process.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall be covered by the present utility model.
