Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of leech hatching, and more particularly to an incubation box for leeches. Background Technology

[0002] Leeches are annelids, commonly known as bloodsuckers. They are hermaphroditic. Wild leeches reproduce by cross-fertilization. The female secretes mucus from her reproductive organs to wrap the eggs in a cocoon, which then hatches in the mud. Hirudin, a natural extract from leeches, is the strongest known natural specific inhibitor of thrombin; it has significant effects on dilating blood vessels, reducing blood viscosity, and increasing blood circulation.

[0003] The existing main method for hatching leech eggs involves arranging the collected eggs neatly in a container, covering them with soil, maintaining a certain level of humidity, and controlling the temperature for hatching. However, the leeches hatch at the bottom of the container, and it is time-consuming and laborious for operators to remove the leech seedlings, thus affecting the hatching process. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides an incubation box for leeches.

[0005] The incubation box for leeches provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: An incubation box for leeches includes an incubation box with a detachable disassembly box detachably connected to its bottom. A drain pipe is connected to one side of the disassembly box. A camera and a water level gauge are installed inside the disassembly box. A support frame is detachably connected inside the incubation box. Several through holes are opened at the bottom of the support frame. An incubation component is provided inside the support frame. A sponge is provided at the top of the support frame. Both ends of the sponge contact the inner wall of the incubation box. An arched plate is installed inside the sponge. Several through holes are opened on the arched plate. A water spray pipe is installed on the incubation box.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the operator can place the leech egg cocoons in the carrier frame and spray water onto the sponge through the spray pipe to meet the hatching requirements of the leech egg cocoons. Under the action of gravity, the water in the sponge slides down the inner wall of the hatching box into the dismantling box, where the leech larvae can survive. The operator can monitor the real-time situation inside the dismantling box through the camera device and control the water level inside the dismantling box according to the water level gauge. When the water level is high or the dismantling box needs to be removed, the water in the dismantling box is drained through the drain pipe, which facilitates the removal of the leech larvae and the hatching of the leeches.

[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the disassembly box fits into the outer wall of the incubator, and the disassembly box is provided with connecting bolts, which pass through the disassembly box and are threadedly connected to the incubator.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the disassembly box needs to be installed, the operator moves the disassembly box so that it is fitted onto the bottom of the incubation box, thereby reducing the possibility of water leakage. Then, the connecting bolts are tightened to fix the disassembly box to the incubation box, which facilitates the hatching of leeches.

[0009] Preferably, a support rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the disassembly box, and a caster wheel is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support rod.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the support rod can provide an installation position for the casters. After the disassembly box is removed, the operator can push the disassembly box, which facilitates the movement of the disassembly box.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected inside the incubator, a support frame is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod, and a flange is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, with the flange placed on the support frame.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting rod can provide an installation position for the support frame, and the support frame can provide support for the flange, thereby providing support for the load-bearing frame and facilitating the placement of the load-bearing frame.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the support frame is provided with an embedding hole for inserting a sponge, and the lower side of the arched plate is provided with a positioning groove, the bottom of the positioning groove abutting against the opening of the embedding hole.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the embedded hole can limit the position of the sponge, thereby improving the positional accuracy of the sponge; when the sponge is located in the embedded hole, the bottom of the positioning groove and the opening of the embedded hole abut together, thereby positioning the arched plate and the supporting frame, thus realizing the positioning of the sponge.

[0015] Preferably, the incubation component includes a soil layer and a mesh screen, with the soil layer located at the bottom of the support frame and the mesh screen located above the soil layer.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, operators can place leech egg cocoons in the soil layer to achieve hatching of leech egg cocoons. The mesh can prevent leech seedlings from climbing out of the soil layer while keeping the soil layer at a suitable temperature, thus facilitating the hatching of leech egg cocoons.

[0017] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. With the setup of a disassembly box, drain pipe, support frame, and sponge, the operator can place the leech egg cocoons in the support frame and spray water onto the sponge through the spray pipe to meet the hatching requirements of the leech egg cocoons. Under the action of gravity, the water in the sponge slides down the inner wall of the hatching box into the disassembly box, where leech larvae can survive. The operator can monitor the real-time situation inside the disassembly box using a camera device and control the water level inside the disassembly box using a water level gauge. When the water level is high or the disassembly box needs to be removed, the water inside the disassembly box is drained through the drain pipe, which facilitates the removal of leech larvae and the hatching of leeches. 2. By setting the embedding hole and positioning groove, the embedding hole can limit the position of the sponge, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the sponge; when the sponge is located in the embedding hole, the bottom of the positioning groove and the opening of the embedding hole abut together, thereby positioning the arched plate and the supporting frame, thus realizing the positioning of the sponge.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4This application will be described in further detail.

[0025] This application discloses an incubation box for leeches, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes an incubator 1, which is hollow. A disassembly box 2 is detachably connected to the bottom of the incubator 1. A support rod 25 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the disassembly box 2, and casters 26 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the support rod 25. The support rod 25 provides a mounting position for the casters 26. When the disassembly box 2 is removed, the operator can push the disassembly box 2, thus facilitating its movement.

[0026] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a drain pipe 21 is connected to one side of the disassembly box 2. A camera device 22 and a water level gauge 23 are installed inside the disassembly box 2. The operator can understand the real-time situation inside the disassembly box 2 through the camera device 22 and control the water level inside the disassembly box 2 according to the water level gauge 23. When the water level is high or the disassembly box 2 needs to be removed, the water inside the disassembly box 2 is drained through the drain pipe 21, which makes it easier to remove the leech seedlings.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the inner wall of the disassembly box 2 fits snugly against the outer wall of the incubation box 1. The disassembly box 2 is equipped with connecting bolts 24, which pass through the disassembly box 2 and are threadedly connected to the incubation box 1. When the disassembly box 2 needs to be installed, the operator moves the disassembly box 2 so that it fits onto the bottom of the incubation box 1, thereby reducing the possibility of water leakage. Then, the connecting bolts 24 are tightened to secure the disassembly box 2 to the incubation box 1, facilitating the hatching of leeches.

[0028] like Figure 1 and 3 As shown, a support frame 3 is detachably connected inside the incubator 1, and the bottom of the support frame 3 has several through holes. A connecting rod 12 is fixedly connected inside the incubator 1, and a support frame 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 12. A flange 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 3, and the flange 31 rests on the support frame 13. The connecting rod 12 provides an installation position for the support frame 13, and the support frame 13 provides support for the flange 31, thereby providing support for the support frame 3, facilitating the placement of the support frame 3, and thus facilitating the placement of leech egg cocoons inside the support frame.

[0029] like Figure 1 and 4 As shown, the support frame 3 is equipped with an incubation component 4, which includes a soil layer 41 and a mesh 42. The soil layer 41 is located at the bottom of the support frame 3, and the mesh 42 is located above the soil layer 41. The operator can place the leech egg cocoons in the soil layer 41 to achieve incubation. The mesh 42 can prevent the leech larvae from climbing out of the soil layer 41 while keeping the soil layer 41 at a suitable temperature, thus facilitating the incubation of the leech egg cocoons.

[0030] like Figure 1 and 4 As shown, a sponge 5 is provided on the top of the support frame 3. The two ends of the sponge 5 are in contact with the inner wall of the incubation box 1. An arched plate 51 is installed inside the sponge 5, and several through holes are opened on the arched plate 51. A water spray pipe 11 is installed on the incubation box 1. The water spray pipe 11 can spray water onto the sponge 5 to meet the incubation requirements of leech egg cocoons. Under the action of gravity, the water in the sponge 5 slides down the inner wall of the incubation box 1 into the disassembly box 2, where leech seedlings can survive.

[0031] like Figure 1 and 4 As shown, the top of the support frame 3 has an embedding hole 32 for the sponge 5 to be embedded; the lower side of the arched plate 51 has a positioning groove 52, the bottom of the positioning groove 52 abuts against the opening of the embedding hole 32. The embedding hole 32 can limit the position of the sponge 5, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the sponge 5; when the sponge 5 is located in the embedding hole 32, the bottom of the positioning groove 52 abuts against the opening of the embedding hole 32, thereby positioning the arched plate 51 and the support frame 3, thus realizing the positioning of the sponge 5.

[0032] The implementation principle of an incubation box for leeches in this application embodiment is as follows: The operator places the leech egg cocoons in the soil layer 41 and sprays water onto the sponge 5 through the water spray pipe 11. The water in the sponge 5 slides down the inner wall of the incubation box 1 under the influence of gravity into the dismantling box 2, where the leech larvae can survive. The operator can monitor the real-time situation inside the dismantling box 2 using the camera device 22 and control the water level inside the dismantling box 2 using the water level gauge 23. When the water level is high or the dismantling box 2 needs to be removed, the water inside the dismantling box 2 is drained through the drain pipe 21, thus facilitating the removal of the leech larvae.

[0033] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
