The present invention relates to a larvae breeding apparatus, and more particularly, to a larvae breeding apparatus which can improve the breeding efficiency of the larvae and reduce the labor force and the required cost for breeding.

Recently, many developed countries have attempted to develop insect resources or protect and preserve rare insects.

In other words, in recent years, insects have been bred to be applied to various fields such as natural resources, environmental purification, environmental indicators, and therapeutic agents in addition to their use for studies or pets.

However, indoor passage breeding is inevitable in winter areas such as Korea, but studies on this field have been insufficient.

There are a number of issues to consider in the breeding and multiplication of insect resources, and in either case it is inexpensive to raise insects with less effort, and to cultivate things that have the same or more qualities as those grown in nature. desirable.

As an example, a method of rearing larvae having strong behavioral characteristics among individuals, such as water larvae belonging to the coleoptera, will be described.

In order to breed large numbers of water larvae larvae, each animal must be kept in separate breeding containers one by one in order to prevent each other from eating each other. You must change it at regular intervals.

1 is a perspective view for explaining a conventional larval rearing method.

As shown in FIG. 1, in the related art, a plurality of breeding vessels 10 are provided as many as the number of larvae in order to breed large numbers of larvae larvae, and the breeding water 20 is supplied to each of the breeding vessels 10. Next, the larvae were individually raised through each breeding container 10.

However, in the related art, there is a cumbersome and inconvenient problem of having to individually exchange the breeding water 20 accommodated in each breeding container 10 in order to change the breeding water 20 soiled by residues or the like. In addition, there was a problem in that the labor required for breeding and the corresponding costs increase.

In addition, conventionally, once used breeding water 20 can not be reused, there is a problem that the consumption and the required cost of the breeding water 20 increases, there is a problem that causes environmental pollution.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a larvae rearing device that can improve the rearing efficiency of the larvae, which has been devised to solve the above problems.

In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a larvae rearing apparatus that can reduce the labor required for the rearing of larvae and the cost required.
