Description

A modular earthworm incubator and earthworm cultivation method

technical field

The invention belongs to the technical field of earthworm cultivation, and in particular relates to a modular earthworm cultivation box and an earthworm cultivation method.

Background technique

Earthworms are common terrestrial annelids. They live in the soil and come out at night. They feed on livestock manure and organic waste. They swallow the soil together with the rotten stems and leaves of plants and other debris. Artificial breeding of earthworms is a new business. It can be used as protein feed for livestock, poultry, fish, etc. It can use earthworms to improve soil, loosen soil, improve fertility and increase agricultural production. It can also deal with urban organic waste. Turn waste into fertilizer and eliminate the pollution of organic waste to the environment. Most of the existing earthworm incubators are replaced by simple plastic boxes, which are inconvenient for the separation of earthworms and vermicompost and the collection of earthworms, cannot meet the needs of use, and have poor applicability.

Contents of the invention

The invention provides a modular earthworm incubator and an earthworm cultivation method in order to solve the technical problems in the known technology, realizes the intelligentization of earthworm cultivation, simplifies operation, and improves the output and quality of earthworms.

A technical solution that the present invention takes for solving the technical problems existing in the known technology is:

A modular earthworm incubator, comprising an incubator, the incubator is supported by four steel structure support frames, and the upper and lower partition boards arranged in the incubator divide the incubator into three layers, including the upper layer of the box , the middle box and the lower box;

The upper box is a closed box, and each supporting frame of the upper box is equipped with a temperature and humidity control device and several blue light sources. The six sides of the upper box are metal plates, so The top plate of the upper box body is a movable cover that can be lifted, and a spraying device is provided on the movable cover, and heat exchange tubes are provided on the inner walls of a pair of opposite side plates of the upper box body. There are sieve holes on the dividing plate, and the lower end surface of the upper dividing plate is provided with Velcro that can be pasted with waterproof and shading cloth;

The middle layer box body is an open box body lacking a pair of opposite side plates, the other pair of opposite side plates and the lower partition plate are all metal plates, and the inner walls of the two side plates are provided with heat exchange tubes , the outside of each support frame of the middle layer box is provided with Velcro that can be pasted with waterproof shading cloth, and the inner top of each support frame of the middle layer box is provided with a number of blue light sources and a number of red light sources, so There are sieve holes on the following dividing plate;

The four sides and the bottom surface of the lower box body are all metal plates, and one side plate of the lower box body is provided with an earthworm collection hole, and the earthworm collection hole is connected with the earthworm collection device, and above the earthworm collection device A red light source is provided, and an earthworm collection channel is provided below the earthworm collection device.

Preferably, the upper box is a cube structure.

Further preferably, the height of the middle box is 1/2 of the height of the upper box.

Still further preferably, two pieces of waterproof light-shading cloth are pasted on the Velcro, and the size of each piece of waterproof light-shading cloth is half of the upper partition plate.
