Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pest control technology, and in particular to a device for releasing natural enemies for the control of harmful organisms. Background Technology
[0002] With increasing attention paid to environmental safety, food safety, and health safety by the agricultural and forestry industries and by people, the technology of releasing natural enemies of insects to achieve natural ecological balance in the prevention and control of forest pests and diseases is being used more and more widely. At present, in order to use natural enemies of insects for biological control of pests, more than one kind of natural enemy insect product is often used on a large tree or an ancient tree or economic forest species with high economic value. These natural enemy insect products have different packaging, but they all need to be hung on the trunk of the tree, waiting for the natural enemy insects to emerge and then parasitize and prey on the pests.
[0003] In actual use, during the emergence of predatory insects, other insects may enter the device, affecting their emergence process. Additionally, during transportation, if the release hole is not properly sealed, larvae may fall out, affecting the device's usability.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a device for releasing natural enemies for pest control to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a natural enemy release device for the control of harmful organisms.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: providing a natural enemy release device for pest control, including a placement box, a lid detachably installed on the surface of the placement box, a bottom plate slidably connected to the lower surface of the placement box, and further comprising;
[0007] The surface of the placement box is fixedly equipped with symmetrical snap-fit mechanisms, and an incubation board is fixedly installed inside the placement box.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the surface of the placement box has symmetrical first through holes, the interior of the placement box has symmetrical sliding grooves, a spring is fixedly installed inside the sliding groove, a lifting plate is fixedly installed at the end of the spring, the lifting plate is slidably connected inside the sliding groove, and the surface of the placement box has symmetrical clearance grooves, which are connected to the sliding grooves.
[0009] Through the above technical solution, the first through hole is used so that the insect can fly out of the placement box after emerging from its molt. After the box cover is attached to the placement box, the squeezing plate squeezes the lifting plate to move down inside the slide groove. The squeezing plate is fixed in the position inside the slide groove by the snap-fit mechanism, thereby achieving the sealing between the box cover and the placement box, and the clearance groove provides space for the snap-fit block to rotate.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: a handle is fixedly installed on the surface of the box cover, and symmetrical fixing plates are fixedly installed on the lower surface of the box cover; the fixing plates are fitted to the inner wall of the box; and a second through hole is provided on the surface of the fixing plates.
[0011] With the above technical solution, after the placement box and the lid are integrated, the placement box can be transported by the handle. When the lid is closed, the fixing plate moves down inside the placement box. At this time, the first through hole and the second through hole are staggered, and the fixing plate blocks the first through hole, thereby preventing insects from falling out of the first through hole during transportation. After the insects have emerged, the lid and the placement box are separated by the locking mechanism, and the first through hole and the second through hole are on the same horizontal plane, allowing the insects to fly out from inside the placement box.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: symmetrical connecting rods are fixedly installed on the lower surface of the box cover, and an extrusion plate is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting rods; the extrusion plate is in contact with the surface of the lifting plate and is slidably connected inside the slide groove; and a slot is formed on the surface of the extrusion plate.
[0013] With the above technical solution, when the lid and the placement box form a whole, the extrusion plate extrudes the lifting plate, the spring is in a compressed state, the snap-fit block of the snap-fit mechanism is inserted into the slot to fix the position of the extrusion plate, when the snap-fit block is moved out of the slot, the spring rebounds, the lifting plate lifts the extrusion plate, the lid and the placement box are separated, and the first through hole and the second through hole are on the same horizontal plane.
[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: symmetrical limiting plates are fixedly installed on the surface of the base plate, and the limiting plates are slidably connected to the surface of the box.
[0015] With the above technical solution, when the snap-fit block is inserted into the slot, the end of the snap-fit block is raised. The limiting plate squeezes the end of the snap-fit block, so that the snap-fit block can be stably and continuously inserted into the slot, making the connection between the box cover and the placement box tighter.
[0016] The present invention is further configured such that: the snap-fit mechanism includes two mounting blocks, a rotating shaft is rotatably connected in the middle of the mounting blocks, a snap-fit block is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft, one end of the snap-fit block is movably inserted into the slot and rotatably connected to the relief slot, the other end of the snap-fit block is movably attached to the surface of the limiting plate, and a torsion spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting block and the surface of the snap-fit block.
[0017] With the above technical solution, after the lid and the placement box are attached, the snap-fit block rotates and inserts into the slot, making the lid and the placement box a whole. At this time, the end of the snap-fit block is raised, and the bottom plate is raised by the electric telescopic rod, which drives the limiting plate to move to the middle of the snap-fit block and the placement box, so that the snap-fit block is stably inserted into the slot. When it is necessary to release the insect, the bottom plate is lowered, the limiting plate moves out from the middle of the snap-fit block and the placement box, and the snap-fit block rebounds and moves out from the slot under the action of the torsion spring. The squeezing plate rises in the slide groove under the action of the lifting plate, thereby separating the lid and the placement box. The first through hole and the second through hole are on the same horizontal plane, and the insect can fly out.
[0018] The present invention is further configured such that: an electric telescopic rod is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the incubation board, and the end of the electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the base plate.
[0019] The above technical solution enables the base plate to move via an electric telescopic rod, which in turn allows the limiting plate to move, thus enabling the locking mechanism to achieve stable locking.
[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0021] This utility model is equipped with a lid, a base plate, and a snap-fit mechanism. The lid and the container can be integrated to facilitate the emergence of insects. After the integration, the first through hole is closed, which facilitates the transportation of the container and prevents other insects from entering. The base plate and snap-fit mechanism allow the lid to be opened when the insect has emerged. At this time, the first through hole and the second through hole are on the same horizontal plane, allowing the emerged insect to fly out. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 This application provides a natural enemy release device for pest control, including a placement box 1, a lid 2 detachably mounted on the surface of the placement box 1, and a base plate 3 slidably connected to the lower surface of the placement box 1.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the surface of the placement box 1 has symmetrical first through holes 11, the interior of the placement box 1 has symmetrical sliding grooves 12, a spring 13 is fixedly installed inside the sliding groove 12, a lifting plate 14 is fixedly installed at the end of the spring 13, the lifting plate 14 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 12, and the surface of the placement box 1 has symmetrical clearance grooves 15, which are connected to the sliding groove 12.
[0031] In this embodiment: the first through hole 11 is used so that the insect can fly out of the placement box 1 after emerging from its molt. After the box cover 2 is attached to the placement box 1, the pressing plate 25 presses the lifting plate 14 to move down inside the slide groove 12. The pressing plate 25 is fixed in the position inside the slide groove 12 by the snap-fit mechanism 4, thereby achieving the sealing between the box cover 2 and the placement box 1, and the clearance groove 15 provides space for the rotation of the snap-fit block 43.
[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a handle 21 is fixedly installed on the surface of the box cover 2, and a symmetrical fixing plate 22 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the box cover 2. The fixing plate 22 fits against the inner wall of the box 1, and a second through hole 23 is opened on the surface of the fixing plate 22.
[0033] In this embodiment: After the placement box 1 and the lid 2 are integrated, the placement box 1 can be transported by the handle 21. When the lid 2 is closed, the fixing plate 22 moves down inside the placement box 1. At this time, the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 23 are intersected. The fixing plate 22 blocks the first through hole 11, thereby preventing insects from falling out of the first through hole 11 during transportation. After the insects have emerged, the lid 2 and the placement box 1 are separated by the locking mechanism 4. The first through hole 11 and the second through hole 23 are on the same horizontal plane, and the insects can fly out from inside the placement box 1.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, symmetrical connecting rods 24 are fixedly installed on the lower surface of the box cover 2. An extrusion plate 25 is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting rod 24. The extrusion plate 25 is in contact with the surface of the lifting plate 14 and is slidably connected inside the slide groove 12. A slot 26 is opened on the surface of the extrusion plate 25.
[0035] In this embodiment: when the lid 2 and the placement box 1 form an integral whole, the pressing plate 25 presses the lifting plate 14, the spring 13 is in a pressed state, the locking block 43 of the locking mechanism 4 is inserted into the slot 26 to fix the position of the pressing plate 25. When the locking block 43 moves out of the slot 26, the spring 13 rebounds, the lifting plate 14 lifts the pressing plate 25, the lid 2 separates from the placement box 1, and the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 23 are on the same horizontal plane.
[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, symmetrical limiting plates 31 are fixedly installed on the surface of the base plate 3, and the limiting plates 31 are slidably connected to the surface of the placement box 1.
[0037] In this embodiment: when the snap-fit block 43 is inserted into the slot 26, the end of the snap-fit block 43 is raised. By the pressure of the end of the snap-fit block 43 by the limiting plate 31, the snap-fit block 43 can be stably and continuously inserted into the slot 26, making the connection between the box cover 2 and the placement box 1 tighter.
[0038] A symmetrical snap-fit mechanism 4 is fixedly installed on the surface of the placement box 1, and an incubation board 5 is fixedly installed inside the placement box 1.
[0039] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the snap-fit mechanism 4 includes two mounting blocks 41. A rotating shaft 42 is rotatably connected to the middle of the mounting blocks 41. A snap-fit block 43 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft 42. One end of the snap-fit block 43 is movably inserted into the slot 26 and rotatably connected to the relief slot 15. The other end of the snap-fit block 43 is movably attached to the surface of the limiting plate 31. A torsion spring 44 is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting blocks 41 and the surface of the snap-fit block 43.
[0040] In this embodiment: after the lid 2 and the placement box 1 are attached, the snap-fit block 43 rotates and inserts into the slot 26, so that the lid 2 and the placement box 1 form a whole. At this time, the end of the snap-fit block 43 is raised, and the bottom plate 3 is moved up by the electric telescopic rod 51, which drives the limiting plate 31 to move up to the middle of the snap-fit block 43 and the placement box 1, so that the snap-fit block 43 is stably inserted into the slot 26. When it is necessary to release the insect, the bottom plate 3 is lowered, the limiting plate 31 is moved out from the middle of the snap-fit block 43 and the placement box 1, and the snap-fit block 43 rebounds under the action of the torsion spring 44 and moves out from the slot 26. The squeezing plate 25 rises in the slide groove 12 under the action of the lifting plate 14, so that the lid 2 and the placement box 1 are separated, the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 23 are on the same horizontal plane, and the insect can fly out.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, an electric telescopic rod 51 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the incubation board 5, and the end of the electric telescopic rod 51 is fixedly connected to the surface of the base plate 3.
[0042] In this embodiment: the base plate 3 can be moved by the electric telescopic rod 51, which further enables the limiting plate 31 to move, thereby enabling the locking mechanism 4 to achieve stable locking.
[0043] In use, the pressing plate 25 is first inserted into the slide groove 12, pressing the lifting plate 14. The spring 13 is in a compressed state. The locking block 43 of the locking mechanism 4 is inserted into the slot 26 to fix the position of the pressing plate 25. The limiting plate 31 is inserted between the locking block 43 and the placement box 1. At this time, the first through hole 11 and the second through hole 23 are staggered. The fixing plate 22 blocks the first through hole 11. When it is necessary to release insects, the electric telescopic rod 51 is activated, the bottom plate 3 descends, and the limiting plate 31 moves out from the middle of the locking block 43 and the placement box 1. The locking block 43 rebounds under the action of the torsion spring 44 and moves out from the slot 26. The pressing plate 25 rises inside the slide groove 12 under the action of the lifting plate 14, thereby separating the box cover 2 from the placement box 1. The first through hole 11 and the second through hole 23 are on the same horizontal plane, and the insects can fly out.
