Definitions
- TITLE Installation for rearing arthropods in multi-storey modules
- the present invention relates to the field of large-scale breeding of arthropods, in particular insects for the production of animal or human food.
- Insects have a number of characteristics which make them well suited for use in animal feed. Insects are indeed high in protein, while being rich in other beneficial nutrients such as fats, minerals and vitamins. The protein concentration levels in insect meals intended for animal feed vary between 55% and 75%. Insects are characterized by a higher feed conversion rate and can therefore become a very valuable feed source for livestock. Insects are a natural component of the diet of animals such as carnivorous fish (eg insects can provide up to 70% of trout's dietary requirements) or poultry. Furthermore, these products also have a well-balanced nutritional profile to meet human dietary needs.
- a system for raising insect larvae comprising a container for a food for insect larvae, rearing modules configured to manage a plurality of trays of larvae and to provide food to the trays.
- Food is supplied from a container to each of the rearing modules.
- the container comprises a tray handling system arranged to receive trays or a stack of trays at a loading/unloading point and to move the trays or the stack of trays; and a food delivery system configured to deliver food received from outside the container to each tray repeatedly.
- the stack may include wheels or casters on the bottom of the trays, the lowest tray in a stack of trays or locked racks.
- the tray handling system may include ball transfer units and/or rollers.
- the tray handling system may include guide rails.
- the rearing module can be arranged so that the trays or stacks of trays can be inserted into and removed from the tray handling system using a forklift, on rollers or casters or some other form of transportation system.
- This solution is designed for the production of larvae intended for feeding an adjacent poultry farm. Production takes place in containers, sheet metal buildings in which stacks of trays are enclosed which can be extracted from this container building by a forklift. When the stack of trays is in a container, it is not possible to carry out any processing. It is necessary to open the container, extract the stack by moving the other stacks that prevent access to it, extract the stack with a conveyor to take it out of the container is to move it to another building through an outdoor space . This solution is not suitable for rearing larvae requiring several interventions within the same building, without going through the outdoor space.
- This device is constituted by an assembly of parts made of different materials, with articulated parts poorly suited to intensive use. This system seems in fact not very robust to repeated manipulations and there is a risk of blocking of the moving parts which can lead to poor emptying of these rearing boxes.
- British patent GB1109015 discloses a one-piece container formed from expanded plastics material and comprising a base portion having walls which stand thereupon, the base portion having a convex top surface and integral reinforcing ribs formed on its bottom surface .
- the container may be in the form of an open box provided with means to facilitate stacking, adequate strength being ensured by providing thickened corner posts, which can support similar containers when stacked above as well as constituting spaced legs for use when the container is standing on a flat surface.
- the present invention relates, in its most general sense, to an arthropod breeding installation according to claim 1, as well as a breeding module intended for such a installation according to the independent claim relating to the rearing module, and to the rearing method according to the corresponding independent claim.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a rearing module
- FIG. 3 shows a view of a tray before assembly of the rearing module
- FIG. 4 Figure 4 shows a side view of a rearing module
- FIG. 7 shows a median cross-sectional view of the rearing module arranged on a belt conveyor
- FIG. 8 shows a schematic view of the rearing module at the start of emptying
- FIG. 10 Figure 10 shows a schematic view of the rearing module in an emptying situation
- these facilities are organized into buildings each comprising shelving for the storage of breeding modules loaded with an inoculated breeding medium, in a climatic atmosphere conducive to breeding, as well as handling equipment for episodic treatments.
- the objective is to avoid transfers outside the building as much as possible, by carrying out all the treatments required for breeding within the same building, with an optimization of space leading to the provision of a storage area and a processing area, as well as means of transfer, remaining in the same building, between the storage area and the processing area.
- the invention proposes a multi-tiered module designed to optimize the culture of the larvae as well as for the occasional transfer to treatment equipment inside the same building.
- the invention aims to optimize large-scale production by simplifying handling both to save time and increase production, to allow the use of reliable and economical equipment, as well as to guarantee sanitary conditions. reducing the risk of infection or development of pathogens.
- This cycle carried out without transfer outside the treatment site comprises a succession of steps: storage of the rearing modules filled with the rearing medium inoculated with larvae in the shelves of a rearing site in a controlled atmosphere (temperatur, hygrometry, controlled light, controlled atmosphere as to the chemical and/or biological composition); transfer to processing equipment; emptying of the rearing module for recovery of the rearing medium and the insects by tilting; washing and rinsing the emptied rearing module; injection of the rearing medium into the rearing module; inoculation of larvae from neonates or young pregrowth larvae; and resumption of the aforementioned storage step, the rearing modules being permanently recycled (except for occasional breakages).
- the cycle is broken down into a pregrowth step followed by an incubation step.
- the rearing module (100) is loaded with a first rearing medium suitable for young larvae, and is inoculated with larvae at the neonate (newborn) stage.
- the rearing module is emptied and the young larvae are recovered to inoculate a new rearing module previously loaded with a new rearing medium suitable for this second stage of maturity.
- the module has six floors (1 to 6). Each of the tiers has a domed transverse bottom (10) surrounded by an edge comprising grooves (15). Consecutive stages are separated by spacers (20).
- the cross-section of the module is typically 1200x1000 mm, and the height of the curbs (15) 160 mm.
- the elements are made by plastic injection.
- the modules are thus made up of multi-tiered monolithic blocks alternating trays whose vertical edges have a determined height, for example 160 mm and voids separating the transverse plane defined by the edges of these vertical edges and the bottom of the tray following, the interval being for example 172 mm.
- This configuration makes it possible to minimize these heights without compromising: for the trays: o the volume of substrate that can be contained; o the absence of overflow during travel; o the absence of escaped larvae; for the voids between trays: o air circulation; o the introduction of substrate injection rods; o the introduction of larval inoculation chutes.
- the modules are formed by an assembly of parts which are then permanently linked, without moving parts, in order to present great robustness compatible with repeated manipulations with automatic equipment.
- the borders (15) have grooves to reinforce rigidity and resistance when the module is loaded, while reducing the weight of the module.
- the bottom (10) of the trays also has reinforcing ribs to stiffen the rearing module.
- the funds (10) have a domed shape with a central zone (11) of hemispherical shape of circular section with a diameter of 600 mm, and a central elevation of 50 mm.
- the rearing medium (13) is deposited on the bottom (10).
- the convex shape of this central zone (11) makes it possible to limit the deflection, better distribute the material deposited on the plate (10) and increase the deflection tolerance (to allow the satellites (30) to pass under the lower plate of the stack at the time of storage/retrieval).
- the rearing trays are assembled to form monolithic modules of six trays by force clipping the spacers (20) located in the corners with a space of 172 mm between two consecutive trays (10).
- the elements are only connected by the four struts and do not rest on top of each other over entire edges.
- the modules cannot be disassembled without voluntary action.
- the spacers are force-clipped between the plates in a non-reversible manner.
- the spacers (20) are configured to ensure between two consecutive plates a lateral slot with a height of between 0.5 and 2 times the height of the edges (15), for example a lateral slot of 172 mm between two plates consecutive (10) of a module, in order to ensure good air circulation, and to allow the discharge of the contents for the emptying of the module, as well as the filling as will be explained below.
- FIGs 5 to 7 illustrate the modes of manipulation of the modules.
- the bottom of the modules rests on racks in a controlled climatic space having supports (41, 42), for example rails, on which it rests on either side of the convex zone (11).
- These rails (41, 42) are spaced to allow the passage of the support (43) which is positioned under the bottom of the rearing module, without any intermediate pallet, ensuring the withdrawal of the modules or their insertion in a rack.
- the spacing of these rails is also defined to ensure good stability for the rearing modules (100) during their storage in the controlled climatic space. This spacing must be greater than 1/3 of the width of the lower cross plate (10) and less than the width of the lower cross plate (10).
- the support (43) extends a mobile satellite moving in a direction perpendicular to a guided shuttle to ensure the movement of the modules to a conveyor and place them thereon.
- a plurality of shuttles and satellites makes it possible to move all the modules to conveyors.
- the conveyors then move the modules between the various processing and rearing stations.
- the width of the conveyors corresponds to that of the rails (41, 42) of the racks.
- FIGs 8 to 10 illustrate the process of emptying the modules after the insects have matured.
- the module (100) is placed in emptying equipment comprising a frame (50) and a plate (51) which are integral and actuated in pivoting around a transverse axis.
- the modules (100) are placed vertically, the trays being horizontal.
- the module is tilted through an angle of rotation of 120° to 150° and preferably 130° to 140° to allow the contents of the trays to be discharged by gravity onto a ramp ( 51), passing through the slots formed between the edges (15) and the adjacent plate thanks to the spacers (20).
- a ramp 51
- several modules can be emptied simultaneously.
- FIG 11 illustrates the process of filling the modules (100). It is carried out by a system of ramps (61) pouring the rearing medium onto trays (60) and/or a similar system of ramps pouring the young larvae onto trays (60). This system is positioned between a waiting position where the ramps are separated from the module (100), and a filling position where the ramps (60) are introduced into the module (100), between the trays (10) passing through the slots released by the spacers between the consecutive trays.
- the ramp system (61) is fixed, and the rearing modules (100) are moved using a shifter to allow filling.
- several filling modules (100) can be filled simultaneously by a system of multiple ramps (61), for example 3 three series of 6 ramps (61).
- the injection consists of filling the empty modules (100) with rearing medium from the rearing medium preparation zone.
- the injection line simultaneously fills three juxtaposed modules (100) with a controlled quantity and/or composition of rearing medium.
- the injection line comprises 18 metering pumps discharging their contents into ramps (60).
- the inoculation consists in depositing doses of insects in the trays (10) of the multi-stage modules (100). These doses are partly transported by gravity to the trays (10) and a compressed air blow allows the doses to be expelled into the rearing modules and to avoid the accumulation of material in the lower part of the inoculation chutes .
- the breeding modules are translated to the side via a shifter (rail conveyor) which transports the three modules (100) constituting the batch. This shifter moves on an axis perpendicular to that of the handling circuit and makes it possible to bring each tray of the breeding modules (100) under its breeding medium injection nozzle (60), then its inoculation nozzle larvae. These nozzles are located above each plate (10) of the modules (100), they therefore fit into the modules (100).
- the shifter moves to the start of injection position.
- Position sensors send the information as soon as the rearing modules are sufficiently offset (ie as soon as the trays (10) of the modules (100) begin to be under the injection nozzles.
- the module (100) is moved for the injection sequence in order to distribute the rearing medium in the rearing modules (from the injection start position to the end position injection.
- the inoculation is carried out at the end of the injection, then the module (100) is replaced in the non-shifted position.
- This process makes it possible to evenly distribute the rearing medium over all of the trays (10) of the modules (100).
- the installation according to the invention makes it possible to carry out a processing cycle applied to each module or group of modules by episodic outputs according to a predetermined sequence of the storage and breeding racks, according to a sequence illustrated by the figure 12.
- the rearing modules extracted from the racks in batches of three rearing modules are subject to quality control (180) by weighing, measuring the temperature or other breeding parameters, visual inspection (190) and/or optical control by a camera and an automatic image interpretation system.
- quality control 180
- the rearing modules (100) whose content is not compliant are directed to a non-compliant evacuation zone comprising a dedicated tilter to be the subject of an emptying step (120) and transfer to disposal (200).
- step 180 Weighing on the shuttle and optionally measuring the temperature (step 180): at each batch exit, the module is weighed on the shuttle and the temperature under each tray of each of the rearing modules is measured. The batch mass is compared to a threshold mass. If the batch mass is below the threshold value, the batch is considered compliant and is sent to the handling circuit as planned. If it is greater than the threshold value, the batch is considered non-compliant and will be sent to the inspection area. The temperature can constitute an additional indicator of the mass to check the conformity.
- Triple tilter when a batch arrives in front of the conforming tilter, the conforming tilter turns over the entire batch in order to collect its contents, by performing several tilts, for example three consecutive tilts, to ensure emptying complete, then put it back.
- the module (100) is then sent to the injection and inoculation station.
- Operator conformity check an operator checks the non-compliant batches detected by the shuttle following a measured mass greater than a threshold mass to rule on the continuation of their processing. This discrepancy may actually be due to growth abnormality. The operator performs a visual and tactile check to verify the growth status of each tray of the rearing modules (100).
