Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of silkworm breeding technology, and in particular to a silkworm cocooning frame. Background Technology
[0002] As is well known, the silkworm cocooning support is an auxiliary device used in the silkworm breeding process for silkworm cocooning, and it has been widely used in the field of silkworm breeding. The existing silkworm cocooning support includes a support frame, a cocooning frame, multiple sets of horizontal plates and multiple sets of vertical plates. The support frame and the cocooning frame are fixedly connected, and multiple sets of horizontal plates and multiple sets of vertical plates are installed crosswise in the cocooning frame, dividing the cocooning frame into multiple sets of square clusters.
[0003] Existing silkworm cocooning frames are used by placing the frame above mature silkworms, who then crawl into the square clusters of the frame to spin their cocoons. However, when multiple frames are placed side by side, air circulation is poor and it is difficult to regulate the humidity of the environment, resulting in lower cocoon quality. To address this, we propose a new silkworm cocooning frame that places the frames containing the cocoons into a box. By controlling humidity and air circulation, each frame can be placed in an optimal environment, thereby improving the cocoon quality. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a silkworm cocooning frame to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a silkworm cocooning frame, comprising a box and a cocooning frame. The upper part of the box is a cocooning chamber, and the lower part is a functional chamber. A ventilation box is located on one side of the cocooning chamber, and an air outlet is located below the side of the cocooning chamber opposite to the ventilation box. A humidity detector is located above the air outlet side of the cocooning chamber. A fan is located in the functional chamber. The air inlet of the fan is connected to a filter box that communicates with the outside. The air outlet of the fan is connected in parallel to a refrigeration device and a heating device through a first pipe. The refrigeration device and the heating device are connected to the ventilation box through a second pipe. An electronic valve is installed between the refrigeration device, the heating device, and the fan in the first pipe. Two sliding grooves are symmetrically arranged at the top and bottom of the cocooning chamber. Several cocooning frames are movably arranged within the cocooning chamber. Sliding blocks that slide along the sliding grooves are located on both sides of the top and bottom of the cocooning frames, and the length of the sliding blocks is greater than the thickness of the cocooning frame. Several square clusters are equidistantly arranged inside the cocooning frame, and handles are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the front end of the cocooning frame.
[0006] Preferably, the bottom of the cocooning cavity is located at the front side of the two sliding grooves, and a baffle that abuts the front side of the slider is rotatably provided. The bottom of the cocooning cavity is provided with a limiting groove matching the baffle on one side.

[0008] Preferably, a dustproof box is provided on the outside of the air outlet, a dustproof net is installed on the side of the dustproof box away from the air outlet, the bottom of the dustproof box is funnel-shaped, and a drain pipe is provided at the bottom to connect to the inside of the dustproof box.
[0009] Preferably, the filter box is provided with several layers of filter screens, and the mesh size increases from the inside to the outside. The bottom of the box is provided with an air inlet that communicates with the filter box.
[0010] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solutions are:

At the same time, the baffle and the limiting groove ensure that the cocooning frame is stably placed in the cocooning cavity of the box, thereby ensuring the stability of cocooning.
[0012] By using a fan in conjunction with a cooling device, a heating device, and a humidity detector, the humidity and ventilation inside the cocooning chamber can be easily controlled, improving the cocooning environment for silkworms and thus enhancing the quality of the cocoons.
[0013] The air can be filtered through several filters in the filter box to prevent air containing dust and other contaminants from entering the cocooning chamber, thereby further improving the environment inside the cocooning chamber and the quality of cocooning. Attached Figure Description

[0023] like Figure 1-5In this embodiment, a silkworm cocooning frame includes a box body 1 and a cocooning frame 2. The upper part of the box body 1 is a cocooning cavity 3, and the lower part is a functional cavity 4. A ventilation box 31 is provided on one side of the cocooning cavity 3. An air outlet 32 is provided below the side of the cocooning cavity 3 opposite to the ventilation box 31. A humidity detector 33 is provided above the side of the air outlet 32 in the cocooning cavity 3. A fan 41 is provided in the functional cavity 4. The air inlet of the fan 41 is connected to a filter box 42. The air outlet of the fan 41 is connected in parallel to a refrigeration device 44 and a heating device 45 through a first pipe 43. The refrigeration device 44 and the heating device 45 are connected to the ventilation box 31 through the second pipe 46. An electronic valve 47 is provided between the refrigeration device 44, the heating device 45 and the fan 41 in the first pipe 43. Two sliding grooves 34 are symmetrically provided at the top and bottom of the cocooning cavity 3. Several cocooning frames 2 are movably arranged in the cocooning cavity 3. The top and bottom sides of the cocooning frame 2 are provided with sliders 21 that are slidably connected to the sliding grooves 34, and the length of the sliders 21 is greater than the thickness of the cocooning frame 2. Several square clusters 22 are equidistantly arranged inside the cocooning frame 2, and handles 23 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the front end of the cocooning frame 2.
[0024] Using the above technical solution, silkworms are first guided into the square cluster 22 of the cocooning frame 2. Then, the cocooning frame 2 is lifted using the handle 23 on the front side. Several cocooning frames 2 are sequentially fed into the cocooning chamber 3 of the box body 1 and positioned by the cooperation of the sliders 21 at the top and bottom of the cocooning frame 2 with the sliding grooves 34 at the top and bottom of the cocooning chamber 3. The sealing door is then closed, creating a sealed space in the cocooning chamber 3. External air is introduced through the fan 41 in the functional chamber 4, working in conjunction with the filter box 42. The humidity of the air is controlled by the cooling device 44 and the heating device 45, and then the air is sent into the cocooning chamber 3 through the ventilation box 31. The electronic valve 47 in the first pipe 43 controls the ventilation direction of the fan 41, facilitating ventilation control. To control the humidity in the air, since the length of the slider 21 is greater than the thickness of the cocooning frame 2, the inserted cocooning frames 2 are abutted against each other by the slider 21, resulting in a large gap between the cocooning frames 2. This allows the air discharged from the ventilation box 31 to be evenly dispersed onto each cocooning frame 2, ensuring that each cocooning frame 2 is in the optimal cocooning environment and improving the quality of cocooning. The humidity detector 33 is set to easily detect the ambient humidity inside the cocooning chamber 3, thereby facilitating the control of the electronic valve 47 and the operation of the cooling device 44 or heating device 45. This allows for the adjustment of the humidity of the air entering the cocooning chamber 3, ensuring the cocooning environment inside the cocooning chamber 3. The air outlet 32 is set to easily discharge the air inside the cocooning chamber 3, improving air circulation.
[0025] Preferably, the bottom of the cocooning cavity 3 is located in front of the two sliding grooves 34, and a baffle 35 is rotatably provided on the front side of the sliding block 21. The bottom of the cocooning cavity 3 is provided with a limiting groove 36 matching the baffle 35 on one side.
[0026] Through the above technical solution, the baffle 35, in conjunction with the limiting groove 36, is used to abut against the slider 21 at the bottom of the cocooning frame 2, thereby making the cocooning frame 2 stably placed in the cocooning cavity 3, and at the same time facilitating the loading and unloading of the cocooning frame 2 in the cocooning cavity 3.
[0027] Preferably, the ventilation box 31 has a plurality of ventilation holes 311 equidistantly arranged inside.
[0028] Through the above technical solution, the ventilation hole 311 is designed to facilitate the uniform guidance of air to the cocoon frame 2.
[0029] Preferably, a dustproof box 37 is provided on the outside of the air outlet 32, and a dustproof net 38 is installed on the side of the dustproof box 37 away from the air outlet 32. The bottom of the dustproof box 38 is funnel-shaped, and a drain pipe 39 communicating with the inside of the dustproof box 37 is provided at the bottom.
[0030] Through the above technical solution, the dustproof box 37 is designed to prevent external dust or insects from entering the cocooning chamber 3 through the air outlet 32. The snap-fit dustproof net 38 makes it easy to clean and ensures ventilation. Due to the exchange of hot and cold air, some water droplets are easily generated and adhere to the dustproof net 38, which then drips to the outside and affects the environment. The dustproof box 37 can collect the water droplets and discharge them through the drain pipe 39, which facilitates external collection and avoids affecting the environment.
[0031] Preferably, the filter box 42 is provided with several layers of filter screens 421, and the mesh size increases from the inner layer to the outer layer. The bottom of the box body 1 is provided with an air inlet 11 that communicates with the filter box 42.
[0032] Through the above technical solution, the filter screen 421 inside the filter box 42 filters the air entering from the outside, filtering out impurities in the air such as dust or some insects, preventing them from entering the equipment or cocooning chamber 3, thus affecting the use of the equipment and the environment inside the cocooning chamber 3.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate this utility model and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in this utility model. Therefore, although this specification has described this utility model in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to this utility model, and all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model; technologies not described in detail in this utility model are implemented using existing technologies.
