[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. The terms "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," and "right," etc., used when describing the installation position or direction of the structure or components in this embodiment are based on the orientation shown in the accompanying drawings. They are merely for convenience of description, used to distinguish the relative positions of various components or directions, and do not represent the orientation of the device or functional component in this embodiment during use.

[0026] like Figs. 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a mobile intelligent turtle and tortoise spawning room, including an outer box, an inner sand layer, a top humidification component, and a bottom collection component. It is suitable for the spawning management of aquatic animals such as turtles and tortoises, and aims to optimize the spawning environment, improve spawning efficiency, and enhance the quality of turtle and tortoise egg collection.

[0027] The outer casing 1 is a rectangular structure, preferably 5m long, 2m wide, and 2m high, made of rigid engineering plastic or metal to ensure structural strength and durability. The bottom 2 of the outer casing is equipped with casters with brakes to fix the spawning chamber in place. Each caster has an independent brake; releasing the brake allows the spawning chamber to be pushed, and locking the brakes once it reaches the designated position ensures easy operation. Four support plates 4 are connected to the bottom of the outer casing 1, and an opening 5 is provided on the right side of the outer casing 1.

[0028] An inner sand layer 6 fills the outer casing, preferably with a thickness of 1m, and contains multiple humidity sensors 7. The humidity sensors 7 are distributed in the upper region of the inner sand layer 6 for comprehensive monitoring of sand humidity. In this embodiment, the thickness of the inner sand layer 6 is controlled to 1m. Two humidity sensors, such as capacitive humidity sensors, are evenly embedded in the upper region of the sand layer, with the sensor probes preferably buried at a depth of 0.2m in the sand to ensure accurate monitoring of the surface humidity of the sand. The monitoring data is transmitted to the PLC control unit in real time.

[0029] The top humidification assembly is located inside the top 3 of the outer casing and includes four water mist nozzles 8 arranged in a matrix and electrically connected to a humidity sensor 7. The water mist nozzles 8 are connected to an external water source via pipes and are automatically controlled to open and close by the control unit based on signals from the humidity sensor 7. In this embodiment, the water mist nozzles 8 are connected to an external water tank via PVC pipes. A solenoid valve is installed on the pipe and electrically connected to the PLC control unit. When the PLC control unit receives a "humidity below 70%" signal from the humidity sensor, the solenoid valve opens, and the water mist nozzles spray water mist onto the sand layer; when the humidity rises back to 70%, the solenoid valve closes, stopping humidification.

[0030] The bottom collection component is located below the internal sand layer 6 and includes an automatically collecting net that can be controlled to rise and fall. The automatic collecting net includes a fine mesh layer 9 and a coarse mesh layer 10. The mesh size of the fine mesh layer 9 is smaller than that of turtle and tortoise eggs, and the coarse mesh layer 10 collects the sieved sand. In this embodiment, the fine mesh layer is made of nylon, and the mesh size is preferably 2cm × 2cm, which is smaller than the smallest size of turtle and tortoise eggs; the coarse mesh layer is made of stainless steel, and the mesh size is preferably 5cm × 5cm, used to collect the sieved sand.

[0031] The automatic collection net is raised and lowered by an electric push rod, which is electrically connected to an external control unit for automated control. The electric push rod's stroke is preferably designed to be 1m to match the sand layer thickness. The external control unit is preferably a PLC control unit, and the push rod is electrically connected to the PLC control unit. When turtle eggs need to be collected, the PLC issues a command, and the electric push rod pushes the collection net upwards. The fine mesh layer sieves the sand, leaving the turtle eggs on it. After collection is complete, the electric push rod lowers the collection net back to its original position, ready for the next collection.

[0032] The usage process of a mobile intelligent turtle and tortoise egg-laying room is as follows:

[0033] Step 1, Position Adjustment: Move the egg-laying room to the target area for raising parent turtles, and lock the universal wheel brakes to fix the position.

[0034] Step 2, Sand filling: Fill the outer box with sand until the thickness reaches 1m, then stop.

[0035] Step 3, Humidity control: The humidity sensor monitors the soil moisture in real time, and the PLC automatically controls the opening and closing of the water mist nozzles based on the monitoring data to maintain the soil moisture at around 70%.

[0036] Step 4, turtle and tortoise egg laying and collection: After the parent turtles lay their eggs in the sand, the PLC controls the automatic collection net to rise at preset time intervals, such as once every 2 days, to sift the sand and collect the turtle and tortoise eggs; the collected turtle and tortoise eggs can be directly transferred to the incubation device for incubation.

[0037] This utility model's mobile intelligent turtle and tortoise spawning room effectively solves many shortcomings of traditional spawning sites through an innovative combination of "mobile design, intelligent humidity control, and automatic egg collection structure," and has high practical value and industrial promotion significance.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
