Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of algae-eating insect cultivation technology, specifically to an algae-eating insect screening and cultivation device. Background Technology

[0002] Algae-eating insects are essentially cladocerans, belonging to the phylum Arthropoda, class Crustacea, subclass Branchiopoda, order Diplodocida, and suborder Cladocera. Commonly known as red worms or fish worms, they are small crustaceans, typically ranging from 0.20 to 3.00 mm in length. They primarily feed on small algae, organic detritus, humus, bacteria, protozoa, and other palatable food particles. They are important organisms for aquatic ecological restoration, playing a significant role in controlling eutrophication and excessive algal blooms. However, the current screening and breeding process for algae-eating insects faces numerous challenges.

[0003] Traditional cultivation devices struggle to effectively separate algae-eating insects at different growth stages, leading to adult insects preying on larvae and reducing cultivation efficiency.

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] Due to the limitations of current technologies, it is difficult to effectively separate algae-eating insects at different growth stages, leading to adult insects preying on larvae and reducing cultivation efficiency. Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 1-5The embodiment provides a screening and cultivation device for algae-eating insects, which can separate larvae from adults, prevent adults from preying on larvae, and improve the cultivation efficiency of algae-eating insects. The algae-eating insect screening and cultivation device includes a cultivation box 1 and support legs 2. The support legs 2 are fixedly installed around the bottom of the cultivation box 1. The cultivation box 1 is equipped with a cultivation device, which includes a screening mechanism, a rinsing mechanism, a cleaning mechanism, and an aeration mechanism.

[0027] The screening mechanism is located inside the incubator 1, the flushing mechanism is located on the back of the incubator 1, the cleaning mechanism is located at the bottom inside the incubator 1, and the aeration mechanism is located at the lower end inside the incubator 1.

[0028] The screening mechanism includes a guide rod 301, a screening box 302, a motor 303, an output shaft 304, a disc 305, a mounting base 306, a mounting base 307, and a ball joint 308. The guide rod 301 is fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the upper part of the incubator 1. The front and rear ends of the screening box 302 are slidably connected to the outside of the guide rod 301. The motor 303 is fixedly installed on the left side of the incubator 1. The output shaft 304 is fixedly installed on the output end of the motor 303. The disc 305 is fixedly installed on the right end of the output shaft 304. The mounting base 306 is fixedly installed on the right side of the disc 305. The mounting base 306 and the disc 305 are eccentrically mounted.

When the motor 303 is started, the output shaft 304 drives the disc 305 to rotate. When the disc 305 rotates, it drives the mounting base 1 306 to rotate eccentrically. Under the action of the ball head rod 308, the screening box 302 is pulled to sway back and forth along the guide rod 301, so that the young algae-eating insects can pass through the screening box 302, realizing the separation of larvae and adults, preventing adults from preying on larvae, and improving the breeding efficiency of algae-eating insects. The mounting base 2 307 is fixedly installed on the left side of the screening box 302. One end of the ball head rod 308 is movably connected to the inside of the mounting base 1 306 and the other end is movably installed inside the mounting base 2 307.

[0029] To further improve the screening quality of algae-eating insects, this device is also equipped with a rinsing and screening mechanism. The rinsing and screening mechanism includes a pump body 401, an outlet pipe 402, a connecting pipe 403, an inlet pipe 404, a filter pipe 405, and a filter screen 406. The pump body 401 is fixedly installed on the back of the incubator 1. The outlet pipe 402 is connected to the top of the pump body 401, and the connecting pipe 403 is connected to the bottom of the pump body 401. One end of the inlet pipe 404 is connected to the inside of the incubator 1. The filter pipe 405 is sleeved on the outside of the other end of the inlet pipe 404. The upper end of the filter pipe 405 has an internal thread, and the connecting pipe 403 has an external thread. The filter pipe 405 is threaded and connected to the connecting pipe 403. A sealing ring is installed at the connection between the inlet pipe 404 and the filter pipe 405. The filter pipe 405 is threaded to the connecting pipe 403, which facilitates the installation of the filter pipe 405 between the inlet pipe 404 and the connecting pipe 403. This filters the water passing through the connecting pipe 403 and prevents impurities from being sprayed out of the outlet pipe 402 into the screening box 302, which would affect the cultivation environment of adult insects. The filter screen 406 is installed inside the filter pipe 405 and filters impurities in the water entering the connecting pipe 403.

[0030] To clean the excrement and impurities of the algae-eating insects at the bottom of the incubator 1, this device is also equipped with a cleaning mechanism. The cleaning mechanism includes a filter plate 501, a telescopic component 502, a scraper 503, a waste outlet 504, and a sealing plug 505. The filter plate 501 is installed at the lower end of the incubator 1. The surface of the filter plate 501 has filter holes. The diameter of the filter holes is smaller than the length of the larvae and larger than the diameter of the larvae's excrement. The filter plate 501 separates the larvae from the excrement, improving the algae-eating insect culture environment. The telescopic component 502 is fixedly installed on the left side of the incubator 1. The telescopic component 502 is an electric push rod, model ANT-63, which can work in a humid environment.

The sealing plug 505 is installed inside the waste outlet 504.

[0031] Example 2:

[0032] Based on Example 1, please refer to Figures 1-5 In order to increase the oxygen content of the water and improve the survival rate of algae-eating insects, this device is also equipped with an aeration mechanism. The aeration mechanism includes an air pump 601, an air pipe 602, and an aeration head 603. The air pump 601 is installed on the right side of the incubator 1. The air pipe 602 is connected to the output end of the air pump 601 and is located on the top of the filter plate 501. The aeration head 603 is connected to the top of the air pipe 602. Oxygen is sprayed out through the aeration head 603 to increase the oxygen content of the water and improve the survival rate of algae-eating insects.

[0033] In use, algae-eating insects are placed into the screening box 302 for cultivation. Then, the motor 303 is started, driving the disc 305 to rotate via the output shaft 304. The rotation of the disc 305 causes the mounting base 306 to rotate eccentrically. Under the action of the ball-head rod 308, the screening box 302 is pulled back and forth along the guide rod 301, allowing the young algae-eating insects to pass through the screening box 302, thus separating the larvae from the adults. Simultaneously, the pump 401 is started, drawing water from inside the cultivation tank 1 through the inlet pipe 404, filtering it through the filter screen 406 in the filter pipe 405, and then allowing it to flow out through the outlet pipe 402. This process further cleanses the algae-eating insects inside the screening box 302. The algae and insects are rinsed to accelerate the screening of larvae. During the cultivation process, the air pump 601 is started to aerate the aeration head 603, increasing the oxygen content of the water, preventing the algae-eating insects from lacking oxygen, and improving the survival rate. When it is necessary to clean the excrement and impurities at the bottom of the cultivation tank 1, the sealing plug 505 is pulled out to allow the water inside the cultivation tank 1 to be discharged through the waste port 504. Then, the telescopic component 502 is activated to push the scraper 503 to move, pushing the excrement and impurities at the bottom of the cultivation tank 1 into the waste port 504 for discharge. After cleaning, the sealing plug 505 is inserted into the waste port 504, and then water is injected into the cultivation tank 1.
