Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of midge breeding boxes, and more specifically, to an artificial midge flowing water breeding box. Background Technology

[0002] Chironomids belong to the suborder Longhornella within the order Diptera. They are holometabolous insects, undergoing four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The egg, larva, and pupa stages occur in aquatic environments, making chironomids aquatic insects. Chironomid larvae, as representatives of benthic animals, can be used to monitor the toxicity of various sediments, providing a method that cannot be replaced by fish or algae in toxicity testing. Chironomid larvae are easy to collect from various water bodies, and their short testing cycle offers advantages over fish and shrimp, saving time and money in experiments. Furthermore, the small size and large number of chironomid larvae facilitate various toxicity tests.

[0003] However, due to the difficulty in raising large numbers of uniform worms for experimental use, it is impossible to conduct in-depth research on biological and chemical control. Therefore, the problem of standardized breeding of red worms urgently needs to be solved. Thus, we propose a flowing water breeding tank. Utility Model Content

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model; Please see Figures 1-4In this utility model, an artificial midge flowing water breeding box includes an aluminum alloy bracket 1 and a glass tank 2. The glass tank 2 is fixedly installed inside the aluminum alloy bracket 1. A mesh plate 3 is hinged to the top of the aluminum alloy bracket 1. A circulation chamber 4 is fixedly installed on the front of the aluminum alloy bracket 1. A filter chamber 5 is provided inside the circulation chamber 4. A filter box 6 is inserted inside the filter chamber 5. An inlet 7 communicating with the filter chamber 5 is opened on the front of the filter box 6. A connecting pipe 8 communicating with the glass tank 2 is provided on the filter chamber 5. One end of the connecting pipe 8 is correspondingly matched with the inlet 7. A circulation mechanism 9 communicating with the filter chamber 5 is installed inside the circulation chamber 4. A through hole 10 communicating with the circulation mechanism 9 is opened at the bottom of the filter box 6. A return hole 11 communicating with the glass tank 2 is provided at the lower right corner of the circulation chamber 4.

[0015] In this invention, the glass tank 2 is reinforced and supported by an aluminum alloy bracket 1. During use, water is first injected into the glass tank 2 through the open mesh plate 3. After 24 hours, solidifying particles are added to the bottom of the glass tank. Then, wild-collected midge larvae are placed inside the glass tank 2. The circulation mechanism 9 is then connected to a power source and started. The water inside the glass tank 2 enters the filter box 6 through the connecting pipe 8 and the inlet 7. The circulation mechanism 9 then draws water out of the filter box 6 for filtration, and the water flows into the circulation chamber 4. Finally, it flows back into the glass tank 2 through the return hole 11, achieving water circulation and increasing the oxygen content of the water. Midges emerging from the water surface fly onto the mesh plate 3 to mate, reproduce, and lay eggs, enabling continuous cultivation. The filter box 6 can be easily and vertically pulled out for cleaning. This invention achieves the advantages of a simple structure, easy assembly, and convenient cultivation of midge larvae, solving the problem of artificially raising wild midges in existing technologies.

[0016] Please see Figure 2 The circulation mechanism 9 includes a water pump 91 and an outlet pipe 92. The water pump 91 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the filter chamber 5. The input end of the water pump 91 extends upward through the interior of the filter chamber 5 and communicates with the through hole 10 at the bottom of the filter box 6. The output end of the water pump 91 is fixedly connected to the outlet pipe 92. The top end of the outlet pipe 92 extends upward to the top of the circulation chamber 4.

[0017] In this invention, the filtered water inside the filter box 6 is drawn out by starting the water pump 91 and injected into the circulation chamber 4 through the water outlet pipe 92, and then flows into the glass tank 2, so as to realize the water circulation and improve the survival rate of larvae.

[0018] Please see Figure 2 The top of the circulation chamber 4 is provided with a rectangular groove 41, the horizontal end of the water outlet pipe 92 is parallel to the rectangular groove 41, and the bottom of the water outlet pipe 92 is provided with water outlet holes 921 arranged at equal intervals.

[0019] In this invention, the rectangular groove 41, combined with the water outlet hole 921 on the water outlet pipe 92, increases the contact area between the water and the air when the water flows down, thereby increasing the oxygen content of the water inside the glass tank 2 and improving the survival rate of larvae.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 The top of the filter box 6 extends to the top of the circulation chamber 4, and the top of the filter box 6 is provided with a first handle 61.

[0021] In this invention, the filter box 6 can be easily and vertically pulled out directly through the first handle 61, making the cleaning operation convenient and labor-saving.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Among them: the mesh plate 3 is equipped with a lifting handle 31, and the outside of the lifting handle 31 is fixedly connected to a limit block 32, which is attached to the aluminum alloy bracket 1.

[0023] In this utility model, the mesh plate 3 is opened by pulling the handle 31 in conjunction with the limiting block 32. At the same time, when the mesh plate 3 is closed, the limiting block 32 is used to overlap the aluminum alloy bracket 1 for limiting, so that the mesh plate 3 horizontally covers the glass cylinder 2.

[0024] Please see Figure 2 The filter box 6 contains a filter media pack 62.

[0025] In this invention, harmful impurities in water are filtered through the filter media pack 62.
