Abstract
Description
Sealed insect breeding equipment Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of insect breeding, and in particular to sealed insect breeding equipment. Background Art
[0002] The black soldier fly is a saprophytic insect of the family Schizontidae. It is currently widely used to process waste such as chicken manure, pig manure, and food waste. By feeding on poultry and livestock feces and domestic garbage, it produces high-value animal protein (fresh and dried insects) and by-products such as insect sand. Black soldier flies are mainly farmed using uncovered boxes as a breeding carrier. The odor of these boxes spreads throughout the workshop environment, making the air environment in the workshop poor and not conducive to workers working there for long periods of time. Moreover, this carrier is too simple to be suitable for use in production lines. Some black soldier fly breeding equipment with a slightly higher degree of automation uses a conveyor belt system to breed black soldier flies. Its structure is relatively complex, energy consumption is high, and it is prone to errors. There is also no way to control the odor emitted during the breeding process, and the workshop space environment is poor. When black soldier flies mature and need to be discharged, traditional scrapers are used to scrape the insects off the conveyor-type breeding bed. In the process of scraping the insects, a large number of insects will be injured or killed, and the difficulty in discharging leads to a large increase in defective products. In addition, the body fluids of the damaged insects will also pollute the environment of the breeding bed, adding a lot of subsequent cleaning work. In addition, the long-end discharging method of the traditional breeding plate makes the discharging stroke too long. On the one hand, the discharging is incomplete, and on the other hand, it also increases the discharging time, low breeding efficiency, and high requirements for equipment.
[0003] Furthermore, the current breeding environment lacks effective control over odorous gases and water vapor. The evaporation rate of feed and insect feces, as well as the difficulty in controlling the breeding temperature, makes existing breeding workshops odorous and humid, resulting in a relatively harsh breeding environment. This creates significant discomfort for workers and hinders efficient and smooth breeding operations. Furthermore, the breeding equipment is highly corrosive, prone to rust and corrosion, resulting in a short service life. Furthermore, unsuitable humidity can affect insect growth. Therefore, it is crucial to design breeding equipment that is easy to discharge, suitable for sealed environments, and capable of controlling temperature and humidity.

[0013] Preferably, the sealed insect breeding equipment further comprises an upright connecting rod, which is hinged to the corresponding upper and lower breeding plates.
[0014] Preferably, the connecting rod is connected to the lifting component, and the connecting rod is lifted by the lifting component to drive the multiple breeding plates to rotate around the hinge component.
[0015] Preferably, a vibrator is provided on the connecting rod or the breeding plate or the mounting base of the lifting component, and the vibrator is used to vibrate the breeding plate.
[0016] Preferably, the hinge component is a sliding hinge component that allows the breeding plate to rotate and slide relative to the shelf. The sliding hinge component includes a straight groove and a hinge shaft arranged in the straight groove. The hinge shaft can slide along the groove. The groove and the hinge shaft are respectively arranged on the shelf and the breeding plate or respectively arranged on the breeding plate and the shelf.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0028] 1. The present invention sets up the spliced breeding boards. When it is necessary to discharge materials, the joints between the breeding boards are opened to form a discharge channel, and the breeding boards are slightly tilted toward the discharge channel while opening, so that the materials are conveniently vibrated from the breeding boards toward the discharge channel under the action of the vibrator. The materials are discharged from the side ends, i.e., the short ends, of the breeding boards, so that the material discharge stroke is short and the material discharge is convenient, thereby greatly avoiding the problem of difficult material discharge caused by material accumulation or excessive viscosity. Moreover, since the two butted breeding boards are in a bucket shape for discharge, the discharged materials are ensured to be concentrated and not scattered, so as to facilitate the collection of materials, ensure the cleanliness of the environment, greatly reduce the probability of material splashing, and improve the working effect.
[0029] In addition, the present application encloses the entire breeding equipment with sealing materials to form a closed breeding chamber, and forms an airflow management system through the cooperation of the air inlet and outlet with the wind control device, which facilitates the centralized treatment and discharge of various gases and water vapor generated by the breeding, effectively improving the breeding production workshop environment outside the breeding chamber and ensuring that the equipment is not easily corroded. At the same time, the wind control device can also be used to control the wind speed to form low-speed laminar wind, and by adjusting the ventilation time and controlling the ventilation volume, the water evaporation rate can be controlled. In addition, cold and hot air can be sent to adjust the breeding temperature, creating a suitable breeding temperature that is conducive to the growth of insects.
[0030] Through the above-mentioned discharge method and the setting of a sealed breeding cavity with artificial temperature and humidity control, the present application not only has a simple structure, strong integrity, low cost and convenient feeding, but also allows more artificial intervention in the growth of insects so that the insects can always be in a suitable temperature and humidity environment that is conducive to growth. This improves the breeding efficiency in terms of breeding equipment and insect growth, while ensuring the cleanliness of the environment. The temperature, humidity and gas in the cavity are controlled, thereby achieving an odorless and clean breeding cavity and breeding workshop environment that is suitable for the work of the staff.

[0046] To further illustrate each embodiment, the present invention provides drawings, which are part of the disclosure of the present invention. They are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. By referring to these contents, ordinary technicians in this field should be able to understand other possible implementation methods and advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.
[0047] Example 1:
[0048] A sealed insect breeding equipment includes a main frame 1, a layer rack 2, a breeding plate 3 and a lifting component 4; the main frame is provided with a layer rack or multiple layer racks arranged in an upper and lower intervals, the breeding plate is arranged on the layer rack, and the two ends of the breeding plate are connected to the layer rack through a hinge component; each layer of the layer rack is provided with two spliced breeding plates, and the spliced part is an openable and closable discharge channel 31, and the lifting component is used to drive the breeding plate to rotate around the hinge component, so that the two spliced breeding plates are tilted and separated to form a discharge gap, that is, the discharge channel is opened.
[0049] The present application sets a shelf on the main frame for placing the breeding board, and can set multiple shelves and multiple layers of breeding boards to fully utilize the height space to improve the breeding efficiency. The two breeding boards are spliced along the width direction, and can be stretched along the width direction to form a discharge channel at the position of the original splicing seam for convergence and discharge of materials, thereby realizing the discharge of materials nearby, rather than long-distance discharge, thereby shortening the discharge time and improving the smoothness of the discharge. The discharge channel is not formed by moving the breeding board toward the outside of the main frame, but by using the gap formed after the breeding board is tilted by the lifting component, and the gap is used as the discharge channel for discharge. Not only can the tilted breeding board be used to facilitate discharge, but a discharge channel can also be generated for convergence and discharge. In addition, the entire width of the main frame does not need to be expanded, and the integrity of the entire equipment is strong. The above-mentioned materials are the poultry and livestock manure and domestic garbage or the mixture of insects and materials mentioned in the background technology. The poultry and livestock manure and domestic garbage are processed by conventional methods in the prior art to form materials that can be used for breeding insects. The mixture of insects and materials is generally mixed with the insects and materials in a certain proportion before feeding the insects. In this way, the insect-material mixture can also be fed through automated equipment like materials and the survival rate of the insects can be guaranteed. Of course, this application does not exclude the method of directly feeding the insects, but it is more preferable to mix the insects and materials before feeding.
[0050] A sealing strip 32 is provided at the joint of at least one of the two joined cultivation panels. Although the gap between the cultivation panels is openable, it must be sealed to prevent insects from escaping through the joint during the cultivation process. Therefore, a sealing strip is provided at the joint between the two cultivation panels to prevent insects from escaping during the cultivation process.
[0051] After the breeding is completed, the existing discharge methods are either to manually pour out the materials, or to discharge the materials at the long end of the breeding board in the length direction through auxiliary equipment. Due to the characteristics of insect breeding, the materials cannot be discharged when they are completely dry. The materials for breeding insects themselves require a certain viscosity and humidity. After the breeding is completed, they will be relatively dry compared to the initial stage of breeding, but there may still be materials adhering to the breeding board. If the breeding board vibrates for a long distance, the discharged materials will not only be easy to accumulate, but the discharge time will be long, and the materials adhered to the bottom will also be easy to get stuck and piled up during the sliding process. The present application adopts the method of setting an openable and closable discharge channel in the middle, which can allow the materials to be discharged as short a distance as possible, thereby greatly improving the discharge efficiency and effect, making the discharge more thorough and clean, and not easy to accumulate, making it easy to clean, and improving the breeding efficiency.
[0052] Example 2:
[0053] The difference from the above embodiment is that the sealing strip includes a frame portion 321 that is flat against the side of the breeding board and a raised deformable portion 322 provided on the outside of the frame portion. To ensure the sealing of the entire joint seam after the breeding boards are spliced, the raised deformable portion can be deformed to form a completely sealed joint after an interference fit during splicing. The deformable portion can be elastic and solid. The deformable portion and the frame portion can be made of an integrally connected elastic rubber material or other suitable sealing elastic material. The frame portion can be a straight strip or a shape that fits into a frame groove on the inner side of the breeding board, that is, a frame-shaped structure with three sides: top, middle, and bottom.
[0054] More preferably, the deformable portion is a hollow bar disposed in the middle of the outer side of the frame, and when viewed from a cross section of the hollow bar, the height of the hollow bar near the middle of the frame is greater than the height of the upper or lower ends, forming a raindrop shape that is wider near the middle of the frame and narrower at the upper or lower ends. The hollow deformable portion ensures sufficient deformation space, allowing deformation of different directions and amounts in different sections of the joint, thereby reducing the precision requirements for the installation of the culture board and the shelf. That is, if the inner side of the culture board is not flat or there is a slight deviation of the culture board after installation on the shelf, resulting in a small gap, the hollow deformable portion can be used to effectively fill the gap during splicing to ensure the tightness of the interference fit of the entire joint. Moreover, the raindrop-shaped structural design makes the main load-bearing of the hollow strip be squeezed in the middle of the upper and lower directions of the joint, so that after the main body of the hollow strip is squeezed, a sufficient interference effective extrusion deformation is formed between the joints to achieve effective sealing, avoiding the excessive overflow of most of the hollow strip from the joints to form an ineffective or poor sealing extrusion that is not tight enough. The raindrop shape can be an upright raindrop shape or an inverted raindrop shape. More preferably, since the breeding board is tilted and slowly approaches and finally docked into a horizontal shape, the inner side of the breeding board is in contact with the upper part first and then approaches the lower part. Setting the water drop shape to an upright state is more conducive to the main body of the hollow strip being fully squeezed in the joint, and the squeezing is also tighter and more sealed.
[0055] Example 3:
[0056] Unlike the previous embodiment, the sealed insect breeding equipment also includes a vertical connecting rod 5, which is hingedly connected to the corresponding upper and lower breeding plates. This hinged connection between the connecting rod and the plates allows for synchronous lifting and lowering of the plates, simplifying the equipment and facilitating the simultaneous opening and closing of the upper and lower discharge channels for easy operation. Each breeding plate can be connected to a single connecting rod, or two or more connecting rods can be spaced at regular intervals, depending on the actual length of the plates and the overall lifting stability.
[0057] The connecting rod is connected to the lifting component, and the connecting rod is lifted by the lifting component to drive the multiple breeding plates to rotate around the hinge component. The lifting component can be a hydraulic cylinder or a screw rod. Of course, other existing devices on the market that can achieve the lifting of the connecting rod can be used in this application.
[0058] A vibrator 6 is provided on the connecting rod, the cultivation plate, or the mounting base of the lifting component. The vibrator is used to vibrate the cultivation plate. The connecting rod can be positioned outside the cultivation plate, and the lifting component can be positioned at the bottom or top of the main frame. Preferably, the lifting component is positioned at the bottom for ease of installation and maintenance. As described above, the vibrator can be mounted on the connecting rod, cultivation plate, or mounting base of the lifting component. This allows for direct vibration of the cultivation plate or indirect vibration of the cultivation plate via the connecting rod, thereby vibrating the material from the cultivation plate to the discharge channel for efficient vibratory discharge.
[0059] Example 4:
[0060] The difference from the above embodiment is that the hinge component is a sliding hinge component that allows the breeding plate to rotate and slide relative to the shelf. The sliding hinge component includes a straight groove 33 and a hinge shaft 34 arranged in the straight groove. The hinge shaft can slide along the groove. The groove and the hinge shaft are respectively arranged on the shelf and the breeding plate or respectively arranged on the breeding plate and the shelf.
[0061] When the lifting components lift the outer sides of the culture plates upward, the inner sides of the culture plates move horizontally outward along the chute, thereby opening the gap between the two culture plates to form a discharge channel. The chute and hinge shaft are preferably arranged on the side of the shelf facing the culture plates, with one end of the hinge shaft extending into the chute and the other end hinged to the end of the culture plate.
[0062] The hinge shaft is provided on the breeding board and is arranged near the inner end of the breeding board. Specifically, the hinge shaft can be provided as long as it is close to the inner end of the breeding board, that is, the hinge shaft can be provided at the inner end of the breeding board, such as at the inner corner of the breeding board, or it can be slightly moved outward to leave a certain distance from the inner corner. The advantage of moving the hinge shaft outward is that, since the hinge shaft serves as the rotation fulcrum of the breeding board, when the lifting component lifts the outer side of the breeding board to the same height, the farther the hinge shaft is located from the inner end, the greater the tilt angle of the breeding board. Therefore, when the lifting height of the outer end of the breeding board remains unchanged, the larger the discharge channel between the breeding boards is opened after a certain distance is left between the hinge shaft and the inner end, the more conducive it is to unloading. Under the premise that the distance between the upper and lower breeding boards is not too large, the sufficient opening degree of the discharge channel can be guaranteed, and the whole set of equipment does not need to be too high, which also saves equipment costs.
[0063] The two spliced breeding boards are assembled to form a breeding unit, and one or more breeding units stacked up and down are surrounded by sealing materials to form a breeding cavity 7, and the sealing materials are arranged along the transverse direction of the breeding unit. The sealing material can be a sealed textile material or a plate material. Multiple breeding units can be spliced together longitudinally to form a long breeding channel, or they can be arranged in sequence transversely, that is, multiple breeding channels are arranged side by side, that is, the sealing material can surround a breeding channel formed by only splicing one or more breeding units front and back, or it can surround multiple breeding channels arranged transversely. Preferably, only one breeding channel is arranged in the sealing material, that is, only one breeding channel is contained in a breeding cavity, and each breeding channel includes multiple single breeding units stacked up and down, so as to facilitate maintenance and management.
[0064] Embodiment 5:
[0065] The difference from the above embodiment is that the sealing material cooperates with the bottom-most cultivation units to form a cultivation channel surrounding all the cultivation units. The ends of the cultivation channel are respectively provided with an air inlet 71 and an air outlet 72. Specifically, the sealing material is sealed between the bottom end and the cultivation panels in the bottom layer. It then wraps upward around all the cultivation panels arranged above and below, thus enclosing the upper and lower layers within the same sealing material to form a unified cultivation channel. The ends of the cultivation channel are also sealed with sealing material, with only the air inlet and outlet provided at these ends for ventilation, temperature control, and humidity control.
[0066] Example 6:
[0067] The difference from the above embodiment is that the air inlet and / or outlet are connected to an air control device 73, which controls the air volume to control the temperature and humidity within the breeding chamber. The air outlet is connected to a deodorizing device 74. The air control device can not only provide normal ventilation, but also adjust the temperature and humidity within the breeding chamber by adjusting the air volume and speed when the temperature or humidity within the breeding chamber is too high or too low, or too high or too low, to achieve an optimal breeding environment conducive to insect growth and improve breeding efficiency.
[0068] Better yet, in order to achieve better temperature and humidity control effects, a heating or cooling air supply system can be connected to the air inlet, such as an air conditioner, a heating pipe or other cooling and / or refrigeration device. When not in use, natural wind can be allowed to pass through the wind control device. When needed, it can be opened to more effectively supply hot air or cold air to more accurately control the temperature and humidity in the breeding cavity.
[0069] Embodiment seven:
[0070] The difference from the above embodiment is that the sealed insect breeding equipment also includes a discharge conveyor belt 8 located below the bottommost breeding board and corresponding to the discharge channel. When the insect breeding is completed and the insects need to be discharged, the middle joints between the breeding boards are opened. Then, with the auxiliary vibration of the vibrator, the material on all the breeding boards can fall from the discharge channel to the discharge channel of the next layer in a short distance and short time, and then continue to fall or fall onto the discharge conveyor belt, and then be transported out by the conveyor belt.
[0071] Since the discharge channel is partially connected to the material along the width of the culture plate nearby, as well as the material that may be discharged from the discharge channel of the culture plate above, the entire discharge channel is relatively long. Therefore, the discharge volume per unit distance is not too large, so the discharge is fast and convenient. The conveyor belt and the discharge channel are set in the center, and the falling material is not easily splashed out due to its special design. Therefore, the conveyor belt does not need to be made too wide, which improves efficiency and saves costs.
[0072] Alternatively, the conveyor belt can be designed to have a structure that is thin in the middle and gradually thickens from the middle to the sides, with a flat inner surface, thereby forming a bucket-shaped belt structure with high sides and low middle, so that the materials can be more concentrated on the conveyor belt, and the spilled materials can be brought back to the center of the conveyor belt. At the output end of the conveyor belt, a scraper 81 that matches the surface shape of the conveyor belt can be designed at the front end or bottom of the conveyor belt, that is, a scraper that protrudes in the middle and matches the structure of the conveyor belt that is thin in the middle and thick on both sides, to scrape the materials on the conveyor belt clean. The end of the scraper can extend to the next section of the conveyor belt for collecting materials or to the container or equipment for collecting materials. The above-mentioned conveyor belt structure and the arrangement of the scraper can improve the discharge efficiency of the conveyor belt, make the entire equipment more tidy and controllable, and reduce the difficulty of cleaning for workers in the later stage.
[0073] Embodiment 8:
[0074] The difference from the above embodiment is that insect-blocking plates 21 are provided at both ends of the breeding plate on the shelf, and at least one of the insect-blocking plates at both ends is a bidirectional spring plate that can be flipped back and forth along the longitudinal direction of the breeding plate.
[0075] Flexible sealing cloth can be arranged between the lower end of the bidirectional spring plate and the shelf, and between the side end and the sealing material or the main frame, so that when the bidirectional spring plate is used as an end baffle of the breeding plate, insects can be prevented from escaping from the gap, and the bidirectional spring plate can be ensured to swing back and forth.
[0076] The rack includes a crossbar 22 disposed perpendicular to the length of the cultivation board and arranged between the front and rear adjacent cultivation boards. The hinged components can be disposed at the inner ends of the cultivation boards, such as at the inner corners of the cultivation boards. Specifically, a hinge axis can be provided externally at the inner corners of the cultivation boards. A chute can be provided on the crossbar. Since the left and right spliced cultivation boards are close together, only a common chute can be provided on the crossbar. A baffle 35 can be provided at the top of the edge where the cultivation board and the crossbar abut, with one side of the baffle pressing on the cultivation board and the other side pressing on the crossbar, thereby covering the seam between the crossbar and the cultivation board to prevent leakage of insects. More preferably, a sealing gasket can be attached to the bottom of the baffle, thereby achieving both a better sealing effect and a good quiet effect when the cultivation board is lowered. In addition, a tensioning rod 36 passed through the breeding board can also be connected to the bottom of the baffle. A spring is provided on the tensioning rod, and a nut is screwed to the bottom end of the tensioning rod. The baffle and the breeding board are tensioned and connected through the cooperation of the tensioning rod, spring and nut, thereby avoiding a hard connection between the baffle and the breeding board, making each component less prone to damage and having a longer service life.
[0077] The two ends of the main frame are surrounded by sealing materials to form a sealed cavity, so that the air inlet and the air outlet are connected to the breeding cavity respectively through the sealed cavity. That is, the two ends and all sides of the main frame are surrounded by sealing materials to form a sealed square sealed cavity, which is only opened at the two ends and where necessary pipelines enter and exit. The air inlet and outlet are used to control the ventilation and temperature and humidity conditions in the sealed cavity. The openings for other necessary pipelines to enter and exit can also be sealed with the pipelines. In this way, the airflow in the sealed cavity can be well controlled to flow only through the air inlet and outlet.
[0078] The sealed insect breeding equipment also includes a feeding and seeding mechanism. The shelf is provided with a guide rail a8 extending longitudinally along the length of the breeding plate. The feeding and seeding mechanism is movable along the guide rail. The feeding and seeding mechanism comprises a bucket a1, a feeding port a2 formed on the bucket floor, an auxiliary feeding member a3 provided on the bucket, and a movable guide assembly for guiding the bucket along the guide rail. The guide rail can be provided on the top, side, or bottom of the bucket. The accompanying drawings illustrate embodiments in which the guide rail is provided on the top and side of the bucket. The movable guide assembly can be a motor provided on the bucket and a roller driven by the motor. The roller can move along the guide rail, thereby driving the bucket. Alternatively, the movable guide assembly can be a roller provided on the bucket and a traction rope or chain that pulls the feeding and seeding mechanism, thereby driving the roller to roll along the guide rail. Alternatively, any other conventional traction device capable of driving the movable guide assembly along the guide rail can be used, such as a chain, traction rope, or wire rope.
[0079] The insect-blocking plates at the ends, the sealing materials on both sides and the breeding plates together form a frame-shaped breeding environment. When a feeding and insect-seeding mechanism is set on the main frame, the bidirectional spring plate can also facilitate the movement of the feeding and insect-seeding mechanism when feeding and spreading insects. After passing through, the bidirectional spring plate can also be reset to the upright state in time.
[0080] The feeding and seeding insect mechanism can be loaded with an insect mixture or material or insect material and move along the guide rail, and automatically feed the insect material to the culture plate through the feeding port. The auxiliary feeding component can be selected as a vibrator to achieve the effect of vibration feeding, improve feeding efficiency, and through the coordination of the vibration frequency and the speed of the feeding and seeding insect mechanism, automatic quantitative feeding can be achieved in the sealed culture cavity without human coordination, making the cavity culture mode of the present application more automatic and rational, and practical, feasible and efficient. With the coordination of the auxiliary feeding component, whether it is dry material or material with high humidity, it can be fed as completely as possible with less adhesion, especially relatively dry insect material can be evenly distributed on the culture plate as the vehicle moves very accurately and quickly. Of course, after the viscoelastic material is laid on the culture plate by other means, the feeding and seeding insect mechanism of the present application is only used to directly shuttle insects between the superimposed culture plates. The present application can be operated on a completely superimposed culture device to carry out maneuverable mobile insect distribution.
[0081] The bottom of the truck bed can be provided with multiple discharge ports along the width of the culture plate, so that the material can be distributed as evenly as possible across the width of the culture plate. Of course, a material leveling component can also be provided at the bottom of the feeding and seeding mechanism, behind the discharge port, corresponding to each discharge port. The material leveling component can be a plowshare, a plowboard, or other device that can spread the strips of material discharged from the discharge port, so that the material can be spread more evenly on the culture plate. Of course, for more precise distribution.
[0082] The feeding and seeding mechanism also makes the equipment of the present application more automated, reduces labor costs, improves insect breeding efficiency, and is more suitable for the sealed insect breeding method of the present application, so that the breeding cavity-type breeding method of the present application is improved, and can carry out repeated cavity-type, controllable insect breeding for a long time, saving labor costs, and eliminating the need to dismantle the sealing materials outside the breeding cavity. After the previous batch of insects is grown and recovered, there is no need to open the cavity to feed insects and materials to raise the next batch of insects, which has a high degree of automation and low labor costs.
[0083] The outer end of the shelf corresponding to at least one layer on the main frame is provided with a parking rack 11 for parking the feeding and seeding insect mechanism. The sealing material can also surround the parking rack, and the air outlet and the air inlet are arranged on the outside of the parking rack. The front end and / or the rear end of the main frame are provided with a parking rack, and the feeding and seeding insect mechanism can be parked on the parking rack when feeding and seeding insects are not needed. Each layer of the breeding board can be provided with a feeding and seeding insect mechanism, or all the breeding boards can share a feeding and seeding insect mechanism. A lifting device can be provided at the position of the parking rack, and the feeding and seeding insect mechanism can be moved by the lifting device to the breeding board layer where feeding and seeding insects are needed, and then move along the guide rail of the layer to feed the feed or the worms or the mixture of the worm and the feeding and seeding insect.
[0084] The feeding and insect spreading mechanism can be a structure with the bucket as the main body. When the bucket is on the parking frame, materials or insect feed mixtures or insects can be added to the bucket through pipelines or other means. After the loading is completed, the bucket moves to spread the material on the breeding board. Of course, the bucket can also work by dragging the feeding pipe, so that the material can be added at any time.
[0085] In addition, the feeding and seeding worm mechanism can also be a non-cargo box structure, and is not limited to the form of a cargo box, as long as it can achieve quantitative feeding. The feeding and seeding worm mechanism can be a structure with a feeding pipe to drag the feeding, that is, the pipe is directly dragged on the feeding and seeding worm mechanism, and one or more feeding pipe openings arranged in sequence can be fixed on the structure, and then the feeding pipe is dragged to feed the feeding pipe opening. The feeding pipe and the multiple feeding pipe openings can be connected by an isobaric diverter tank. This type of feeding pipe is particularly suitable for feeding. It can also be a combination of a cargo box and a feeding pipe, using a cargo box to feed worms and then setting a feeding pipe opening on the front side of the cargo box for feeding, so as to achieve feeding first and then feeding worms.
[0086] The present invention arranges the spliced breeding boards, and when it is necessary to discharge materials, the joints between the breeding boards are opened to form a discharge channel, and the breeding boards are slightly tilted toward the discharge channel while opening, so that the materials are conveniently vibrated from the breeding boards toward the discharge channel under the action of the vibrator, and the materials are discharged from the side ends, i.e., the short ends, of the breeding boards, so that the material discharge stroke is short and the material discharge is convenient, thereby greatly avoiding the problem of difficult material discharge due to material accumulation or excessive viscosity, and because the two butted breeding boards are in a bucket shape for discharge, the discharge is ensured to be concentrated, which is convenient for material collection, ensures a clean and tidy environment, greatly reduces the probability of material splashing, and improves work efficiency.
