Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of earthworm farming technology, specifically to an earthworm seedling transfer box. Background Technology
[0002] Earthworm farming is a relatively simple and promising agricultural activity. Earthworms can not only improve soil structure and fertility, but also be used as poultry feed or for fishing.
[0003] Large-scale earthworm farming may require transferring seedlings from one location to another for centralized management and to provide better growth conditions. During the transfer of earthworm seedlings, they are usually placed inside transfer boxes for centralized transport. Currently available transfer boxes can effectively avoid mechanical damage to earthworm seedlings during the transfer process.
[0004] However, earthworm seedlings are quite sensitive to environmental changes, and earthworms need to survive in a moist environment. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a suitable temperature and humidity during the transfer process. At the same time, during the transfer process, because a large number of earthworm seedlings are concentrated inside the box and are too close to each other, the inside of the box is kept in a high-temperature environment for a long time. The existing transfer boxes do not have environmental control functions, which makes it impossible to increase soil moisture and reduce internal temperature. This makes the earthworm seedlings inside the box prone to drying out or dying from heat, which greatly reduces the survival rate of earthworm seedlings during transfer and causes economic losses. Therefore, an earthworm seedling transfer box is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an earthworm seedling transfer box, which solves the problem that current transfer boxes lack environmental control functions, making it impossible to increase soil moisture and reduce internal temperature. This results in earthworm seedlings inside the box easily drying out or dying from heat, thus greatly reducing the survival rate of earthworm seedlings during transfer and causing economic losses.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an earthworm seedling transfer box, comprising a transfer box and a protective box, wherein an environmental control component is provided on the outside of the transfer box;
[0007] The environmental control component includes a loading box located inside the transfer box. The top of the loading box is covered with a cover plate. A water tank, a cooling fan, a temperature sensor, and a humidity sensor are fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate. Delivery pipes are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the water tank. Solenoid valves are installed on the outside of the delivery pipes. Threaded positioning holes are opened around the top of the transfer box, the loading box, and the cover plate. Positioning bolts are threaded into the inside of the threaded positioning holes.
[0008] Furthermore, a water supply pipe and a timer controller are fixedly connected to the top of the water tank, and a sealing cap is threaded onto the top of the water supply pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, the bottom end of the delivery pipe passes through the cover plate and extends to its bottom, and filters are fixedly connected to both the top and bottom of the cooling fan.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the transfer box is smaller than the inner diameter of the protective box, and the interior of the loading box is provided with a soil layer.
[0011] Furthermore, fixing blocks are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the transfer box, and fixing seats are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the inner wall of the protective box.
[0012] Furthermore, the top and bottom of the fixing block are fixedly connected with insert rods, and the top of the fixing seat is provided with an insertion hole, and the insert rods are inserted into the insertion hole for fixation.
[0013] Furthermore, a corrugated waterproof membrane is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective box.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] This earthworm seedling transfer box, through the installation of environmental control components, achieves internal environmental control functions. It can monitor the temperature and humidity inside the loading box in real time, and periodically inject clean water and blow in cold air from outside, thereby timely increasing soil moisture and reducing internal temperature. Ultimately, this effectively reduces the probability of earthworm seedlings drying out or dying from heat inside the loading box, thus significantly improving the survival rate of earthworm seedlings during transfer and reducing economic losses.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 3 An earthworm seedling transfer box in this embodiment includes a transfer box 1 and a protective box 2. An environmental control component is provided on the outside of the transfer box 1.
[0022] The environmental control components include a loading box 3 located inside the transfer box 1. A cover plate 4 is provided on the top of the loading box 3. A water tank 5, a cooling fan 6, a temperature sensor 7, and a humidity sensor 8 are fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate 4. Delivery pipes 9 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the water tank 5. A solenoid valve 10 is installed on the outside of the delivery pipes 9. Threaded positioning holes 11 are provided around the top of the transfer box 1, the loading box 3, and the cover plate 4. Positioning bolts 12 are threaded into the inside of the threaded positioning holes 11. During use, the temperature sensor 7 and the humidity sensor 8 can monitor the temperature and humidity inside the loading box 3 in real time.
[0023] Among them, the water tank 5, the delivery pipe 9 and the cooling fan 6 can inject clean water into the loading box 3 and blow in cold air from the outside at regular intervals, thereby increasing soil moisture and reducing internal temperature in a timely manner.
[0024] In addition, it achieves the effect of easy installation and disassembly. The staff only needs to remove all four positioning bolts 12 used for fixing to disconnect the transfer box 1, loading box 3 and cover plate 4 from each other, so that the loading box 3 containing soil layer and earthworm seedlings can be pulled out of the transfer box 1, and the earthworm seedlings and soil can be poured into the pre-prepared breeding pond.
[0025] Ultimately, this effectively reduced the probability of earthworm seedlings inside loading box 3 drying out or dying from heat, thereby significantly improving the survival rate of earthworm seedlings during transfer and reducing economic losses.
[0026] The top of the water tank 5 is fixedly connected to a water supply pipe 13 and a timer controller 14. The top of the water supply pipe 13 is threaded with a sealing cap. By setting the water supply pipe 13 and the timer controller 14, the water tank 5 can be easily replenished and timed.
[0027] It should be noted that the bottom end of the delivery pipe 9 passes through the cover plate 4 and extends to its bottom, and the top and bottom of the cooling fan 6 are both fixedly connected with filter screens.
[0028] It should be understood that the outer diameter of the transfer box 1 is smaller than the inner diameter of the protective box 2, and the interior of the loading box 3 is equipped with a soil layer.
[0029] The transfer box 1 is fixedly connected to the left and right sides with fixing blocks 15, and the inner walls of the protective box 2 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides with fixing seats 16. The top and bottom of the fixing blocks 15 are fixedly connected with insert rods 17. The top of the fixing seat 16 is provided with an insertion hole 18. The insert rod 17 is inserted into the insertion hole 18 for fixation. Through the cooperation of the fixing blocks 15, fixing seats 16, insert rods 17 and insertion holes 18, the transfer box 1 can be limited to the inside of the protective box 2 by insertion and fixation, thereby covering the bottom and outside of the transfer box 1 to achieve external protection for the transfer box 1.
[0030] In addition, a corrugated waterproof membrane 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective box 2. It should be noted that...
[0031] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0032] In use, the operator first places the loading box 3, containing a soil layer and earthworm seedlings, into the transfer box 1. Then, the cover plate 4 is placed on top of the loading box 3, ensuring that the threaded positioning holes 11 of all three are aligned. Next, the four positioning bolts 12 are threaded into the threaded positioning holes 11, connecting the transfer box 1, loading box 3, and cover plate 4 into a single unit. Finally, the transfer box 1 is placed into the protective box 2, and the insertion rod 17 is inserted into the insertion hole 18 for fixation. This insertion fixation method confines the transfer box 1 within the protective box 2, thus covering the bottom and outside of the transfer box 1 and providing external protection. This facilitates the transfer of earthworm seedlings. During the transfer, temperature sensor 7 and humidity sensor 8 can monitor the temperature and humidity inside the loading box 3 in real time. The water tank 5, delivery pipe 9, and cooling fan 6 can periodically inject clean water into the loading box 3 and blow in cold air from the outside, thereby increasing soil moisture and reducing internal temperature in a timely manner. In addition, when the transfer location is reached, the staff only needs to remove all four positioning bolts 12 used for fixing to disconnect the transfer box 1, loading box 3 and cover plate 4 from each other, so that the loading box 3 containing soil and earthworm seedlings can be pulled out of the transfer box 1 and dumped into the pre-prepared breeding pond.
