Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and in particular to a combined turtle rearing box. Background Technology

[0002] Soft-shelled turtle farming is now fully modernized, enabling large-scale breeding and growth. However, when selling soft-shelled turtles, they need to be transported in batches to various locations over long periods. During this process, suitable turtle rearing boxes are often needed to house the turtles and reduce damage during long-distance transportation.

[0003] A search revealed that the document with publication number "CN219088169U" mentions "a combined turtle breeding box, the technical solution of which includes a frame and a box body. Strip-shaped sliders are fixedly connected to both sides of the frame. Slide grooves matching the strip-shaped sliders are provided on both side walls of the box body. A climbing platform is provided inside the box body. A lighting mechanism is installed on the frame. A threaded hole is opened at the bottom corner of the frame, and a support screw is threaded into the threaded hole. A positioning hole is opened at the top corner of the frame. An oblique opening extending outwards from one side of the box body is provided. The climbing platform includes an integrally formed flat plate and an inclined plate, with the edge of the flat plate movably connected to the inner wall of the box body." In use, by setting up a frame and a sliding box body, with an adjustable support screw at the bottom of the frame and a positioning hole at the top, the box body can be used individually or stacked, which improves space utilization and enhances practicality.

[0004] However, during long-distance transportation of turtles, the turtles are in a long-term enclosed and bumpy environment, which can easily damage them. Existing modular turtle breeding boxes lack structures to protect the turtles and also lack parts to replenish their water and oxygen. This can easily cause irreversible damage to the turtles during long-term transportation, affecting their quality.

[0005] Therefore, we provide a modular turtle rearing box to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a combined turtle breeding box, including a breeding box 1, a rubber pad on the inner wall of the breeding box 1, a transport component 2 inside the breeding box 1, the transport component 2 including a water tank 201 welded to the inner edge of the breeding box 1, a seepage pipe 202 connected to the bottom of the water tank 201, and a magnetic connecting block 3 installed on the left side surface of the breeding box 1.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4As shown, four sets of water tanks 201 are symmetrically arranged around the center of the rearing box 1. Small holes are evenly distributed on the surface of the seepage pipes 202. During long-distance transport of turtles, the water tanks 201 store sufficient purified water, and water drips evenly from the seepage pipes 202 into the rearing box 1, preventing the turtles from being harmed by prolonged dehydration and avoiding damage caused by prolonged soaking in excessive water. This also prevents water waste and ensures that the turtles do not dehydrate during long-distance transport, improving their safety. The rearing box 1 has a cross-shaped partition 203 connected to its internal surface via slots. A T-shaped slot is provided on the top of the rearing box 1, and T-shaped latches are provided at the ends of the cross-shaped partitions 203. The surface of the cross-shaped partitions 203 is covered with rubber pads. The cross-shaped partitions 203 evenly divide one rearing box 1 into four compartments, allowing four turtles to be placed in one rearing box 1. This separation prevents the turtles from attacking each other during transport and ensures that they do not collide with each other during vehicle bumps, preventing unnecessary damage.

[0027] The top of the cross-shaped partition 203 is equipped with a protective cover 204. A feeding trough 206 is cut into the surface of the protective cover 204, and U-shaped light tubes 207 are installed around the perimeter of the feeding trough 206. Small holes are evenly distributed at the bottom of the feeding trough 206. The U-shaped light tubes 207 are welded to the protective cover 204. A rubber pad is placed at the bottom of the protective cover 204. During transportation, the protective cover 204 secures the turtle within the compartments of the cross-shaped partition 203, preventing the turtle from climbing out of the rearing box 1. Simultaneously, food can be placed in the feeding trough 206. The feed falls into the compartment through the holes in the feed trough 206 under its own gravity, achieving the purpose of replenishing feed without opening the device. The operation is simple and quick. The U-shaped lamp 207 can ensure that every corner of the compartment has sufficient light during transportation, which can avoid damage, especially to young turtles, caused by lack of light due to long-term confinement in the device. The rubber pads at the bottom of the protective cover 204, together with the inner wall of the feeding box 1 and the cross partition 203, can reduce the damage to the turtles caused by vehicle bumps and prevent the device from damaging the turtles.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, the protective cover 204 has four small holes at the top. An oxygen pump 205 is installed on the upper side of the protective cover 204. An oxygen supply pipe 208 is connected to the bottom of the oxygen pump 205. There are four sets of oxygen supply pipes 208. There is one oxygen supply pipe 208 in each of the four compartments separated by the cross-shaped partition 203. The four sets of oxygen supply pipes 208 are inserted into the four small holes of the protective cover 204 to ensure that there is one oxygen supply pipe 208 in each compartment. The oxygen supply pipes 208 can continuously and evenly supply sufficient oxygen to the turtles during long-distance transportation, avoid the danger of the turtles suffocating due to lack of oxygen, and ensure that the turtles can survive healthily in the sealed device.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-4As shown, the bottom of the feeding box 1 is connected to a collection box 209 via a slot. The bottom of the feeding box 1 has an L-shaped slot, and the upper part of the collection box 209 has an L-shaped opening. The bottom of the inside of the feeding box 1 has a through groove. The bottom of the inside of the feeding box 1 slopes from both sides toward the through groove. The sloping bottom of the feeding box 1 can automatically transport the turtle's excrement to the through groove at the bottom and allow the excrement to fall naturally into the collection box 209. This avoids the need to repeatedly open the device to clean the turtle's excrement during long-term transportation, ensuring that the turtle is in a relatively clean environment and improving the convenience and comfort of the device.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, a magnetic connection groove 4 is provided on the right side of the feeding box 1. The magnetic connection block 3 is a convex block and the magnetic connection groove 4 is a concave groove. The magnetic connection groove 4 and the magnetic connection block 3 correspond one-to-one. When a large number of turtles need to be transported at one time, the magnetic connection block 3 and the magnetic connection groove 4 can connect multiple devices head to tail to avoid the devices colliding with each other and causing damage to the turtles due to long-distance bumps.

[0031] Working Principle: After transporting the device to the working position, first fix the cross-shaped partition 203 inside the rearing box 1 using the slots. Then, place the four turtles into each compartment in turn. Next, fill the water tank 201 with purified water, ensuring that the seepage pipe 202 begins to slowly seep water, allowing for even water replenishment to the turtles during transport. Then, fasten the protective cover 204 to the top of the rearing box 1. After securing the protective cover 204, insert the oxygen supply pipe 208 through the four small holes at the top of the protective cover 204 into the intersection of the cross-shaped partition 203, ensuring that each compartment has a set of oxygen supply pipes 208. Fix the oxygen pump 205 to the surface of the protective cover 204, and then start the oxygen pump. 205 provides oxygen to the turtles to prevent them from suffering from oxygen deficiency in a closed environment for a long time. Then, several devices are connected and fixed by magnetic connecting blocks 3. During long-distance transportation, the turtles' excrement will automatically move through the inclined bottom of the feeding box 1 to the channel and fall into the collection box 209. During transportation, feed is supplemented through the feeding trough 206 as needed, and the circular light tube 207 is turned on to supplement the turtles' light, ensuring that the turtles still have sufficient light in a long-term dark environment. After transportation, the parts are disassembled and stored, and the inside of the device and the collection box 209 are cleaned. This completes the use of a modular turtle feeding box.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
