Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an intelligent breeding room for small insect larvae, belonging to the category of insect breeding equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Insect farming can transform agricultural waste (such as kitchen waste and livestock manure) into high-value products. For example, black soldier fly larvae can consume 800 kg of kitchen waste in 20 days, producing 200-300 kg of insect body and 300 kg of high-quality organic fertilizer. Yellow mealworms can convert straw into insect protein and organic fertilizer, achieving resource recycling. Simultaneously, the decomposition of organic waste by insects can block the spread of pathogens, hormones, and antibiotics. For example, black soldier flies can degrade viruses in the carcasses of diseased and dead livestock, reducing the risk of environmental pollution. Furthermore, insect farming does not require the use of chemical pesticides, conforming to the principles of organic agriculture. In the insect farming process, insect eggs are generally hatched and then fed with agricultural waste. In the early stages of egg hatching, the larvae are small and have poor resistance; therefore, larvae that have been hatching and growing for a period of time are typically used for breeding in general insect farming. Most existing insect larvae are raised in small boxes in a heated room after hatching from eggs. The temperature and humidity are manually adjusted and feed is added multiple times according to the growth of the larvae to complete the rearing process. The larvae are then used to process livestock and poultry manure in batches. During the operation, the temperature and humidity cannot be adjusted in time at different times, resulting in slow growth of the larvae, low survival rate, or even the escape of larvae due to high temperature and humidity. This leads to inconsistent growth between different batches or even within the same batch of larvae, which in turn affects the accuracy of larval feeding and the overall production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention provides an intelligent breeding house for insect larvae, which solves the problems of inaccurate control in the existing insect larvae breeding process, resulting in inconsistent growth of larvae in different batches or even the same batch, thus affecting the accuracy of insect feeding and overall production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] 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.

[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an intelligent breeding room for small insect larvae includes an insulated room 1, several shelves 11 and a control system. The shelves 11 have several layers, and each layer is equipped with several breeding boxes 13. The size and number of breeding boxes 13 are set according to the breeding needs. The number of larvae raised in the breeding boxes 13 in one insulated room is adapted to the needs of larvae in a certain period of time.

[0027] For insulated rooms 1, any building with good insulation and sealing properties, such as an insulated panel house, will suffice.

[0028] The number of breeding boxes (13 in total) can be calculated using the following method:

[0029] Suppose a farm purchases 10 machines, each with 10 layers, with each breeding cycle lasting 10 days. Each layer contains 1 ton of material. One machine feeds and discharges insects daily, resulting in a daily processing capacity of 10 tons. Each layer requires 1 million insects per ton of material, totaling 1 million * 10 layers = 10 million insects daily. Assuming each gram of eggs hatches into 20,000 larvae, each layer requires 50 grams of eggs to hatch. Each small box contains 200,000 larvae (equivalent to 10 grams of eggs), requiring 5 boxes per layer. Therefore, one machine per cycle would require 5 * 10 = 50 boxes of larvae daily. A single insulated room (1) could hold 50 breeding boxes (13). Ten machines could be configured with 10 separate intelligent insect larvae breeding rooms. This approach allows for flexible capacity adjustments based on breeding needs, dynamically matching larvae numbers with demand and avoiding resource waste.

[0030] The lower part of the insulated room 1 is equipped with a heating mechanism 8, an air inlet mechanism, and a turbulence mechanism;

[0031] The upper part of the heat-insulating room 1 is equipped with a cooling mechanism, a humidifying mechanism and a ventilation mechanism; the top of the heat-insulating room 1 is equipped with a lighting mechanism 9 and a dehumidification mechanism 6.

[0032] The insulation room 1 is equipped with several temperature and humidity sensors 12, which are distributed in different positions inside the insulation room 1.

[0033] The control system includes a control box 3 and a controller. The control box 3 is installed on the outer wall of the insulated room 1 near the door 4, and the controller is installed on the control box 3. The controller can be configured according to actual needs, such as a PLC controller.

[0034] The heating mechanism 8 primarily provides heat to the insulation room 1 to ensure its temperature meets the needs of aquaculture. Depending on the actual situation, appropriate heat exchange equipment can be used. In this embodiment, it includes an arc-shaped frame 81, a heating mechanism 83, and a heat reflector 82. The heating mechanism 83 is fixed inside the arc-shaped frame 81, and the heat reflector 82 is disposed inside the arc-shaped frame 81. The heating mechanism 83 can be made of materials such as heating wires.

[0035] The air intake mechanism includes an air inlet 15 installed on the wall of the insulation room 1. An insect-proof net 2 is installed at the air inlet end of the air inlet 15, and a self-suction door is installed at the air outlet end of the air inlet 15. The ventilation mechanism includes a ventilation fan 14 installed on the wall of the insulation room 1, and a self-suction door is installed at the outlet end of the ventilation fan 14.

[0036] The self-closing door can open under the push of airflow during ventilation and close under its own gravity when there is no ventilation. Some electric self-closing door mechanisms can also be used. In this embodiment, the self-closing door includes an insulation board 7, which is rotatably connected to the wall of the insulated room. Using the above mechanism, the structure is simple and the operation is convenient.

[0037] The main function of the airflow deflector is to improve airflow and solve the problem of excessive temperature difference between the top and bottom of the insulation room 1. Generally, a deflector fan 16 is sufficient.

[0038] The main function of the cooling mechanism is to lower the temperature inside the insulated room 1 to make it suitable for insect breeding. In this embodiment, an air conditioner 10 is used.

[0039] The humidification mechanism is an ultrasonic humidifier 5.

[0040] The operation process of this embodiment:

[0041] According to the breeding needs of the breeding farm, a corresponding number of breeding boxes 13 are set in the heat-insulated room 1, then feed and insect eggs are put in, then the control system is started, the breeding parameters (temperature, humidity, breeding time, etc.) for different breeding stages are set, and the system is started to carry out insect egg breeding.

[0042] Based on the principles of air heating and cooling, this utility model incorporates heating, cooling, humidification, dehumidification, and ventilation equipment at different locations. This effectively reduces energy consumption, precisely controls breeding parameters, and improves the uniformity of the breeding environment, thereby ensuring a consistent growth environment and uniform larval size.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
