Grasshopper insect delivery box {Transport box for Insects}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a grasshopper insect delivery box, and more particularly, to a grasshopper insect delivery box which is capable of smoothly delivering grasshopper insects by partitioning a space inside the box into a plurality of segments using a partition, To an insect delivery box.

Among the locust beetles inhabited in Korea, there are many insects which are used for food as well as food for various pets or livestock.

Among these insects, omnivorous twin crickets are distributed in heating regions such as Japan, Taiwan, India and Malaysia. They have been introduced to Korea 10 to 20 years ago and are being gradually used for edible or feed use. Especially, It is easy to breed because it eats anything such as grains, vegetables, animal feeds or small insects, and it is possible to breed more than 6 times a year and up to 12 times a year.

However, the demand for locust insects such as crickets is increasing, but the supply system according to demand is still insufficient. Especially, in order to breed insects such as crickets by pair in a farm, it is important to obtain living insects, and accordingly, it is important to deliver the insects so that they are alive when they are delivered.

At present, when sending grasshopper insects, it is usually necessary to tear the newspapers inside a rectangular styrofoam, to put a fuller's tooth or a pair of crickets in it, to deliver a styrofoam box, or to put a fuller's or a pair of crickets on an onion net, It is common to ship the box.

However, when the insect is delivered in this manner, there is not enough space to move, causing the problem that the insect is killed due to the stress of the locust beetle insect, the air is not passed through or the insect escapes into the gap of the box .

Therefore, in order to smoothly deliver living insects, it is necessary to have a structure that allows space for insects to move and a ventilation structure to prevent insects from escaping.

A related prior art is Korean Patent Publication No. 2009-0048264 (published on May 13, 2009).

Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem [8] Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an insect- So that the locust beetle insects can be delivered smoothly while still alive.

The technical objects to be achieved by the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned technical problems.

In order to accomplish the above object, according to the present invention, there is provided a grasshopper insect delivery box, comprising: a box for containing insects therein; a side window which is formed at one or more sides of the box, And a space partition inserted into the inner space and capable of partitioning the inner space of the box.

Specifically, the box may be characterized in that the inner surface thereof is made of a smooth material so that insects do not climb, or is coated with a smooth material.

Specifically, the side window may be formed by removing a side portion of the box by selecting any one of a plurality of perforated lines per size of the side of the box.

Specifically, the plurality of compartments formed of the space partition or the rectangular parallelepiped-shaped cardboard are coupled to each other, wherein the partition has a plurality of coupling grooves formed at regular intervals on one side in the longitudinal direction, And a plurality of through holes formed therein.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to appropriately partition the space inside the delivery box for insects, thereby securing a space in which insects can move, thereby reducing the stress of delivery of the insects of the locust beetle, have.

Further, since the surface of the inside of the insect delivery box is covered with the anti-glare coating or the material of the box is made of Manila, there is an effect of preventing the escape of the insects of the locust.

In addition, since a ventilating window can be provided on the side of the insect delivery box to supply proper oxygen to the inside, it is possible to prevent insect death caused by insufficient air flow during delivery of the insect insect.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same components are denoted by the same reference symbols whenever possible. In the following description, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail since they would obscure the invention in unnecessary detail.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a grasshopper insect delivery box according to an embodiment of the present invention. The grasshopper insect delivery box 100 includes a box 110, (130) inserted into the box (100) so as to partition the window (120) and the inner space of the box (100).

First, the box 100 can be folded and stored in the same manner as a packing box made of general corrugated cardboard, and can be assembled to form a box shape in use.

The box 110 has the shape of a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped. The box 110 has four lids 111 bent from the upper side so as to be opened and closed, an inner surface 112, a bottom 113, And an outer surface 114 (see FIG. 2).

A slippery material may be added to the inner surface 112 to prevent insects from escaping to the outside while riding on the inner surface 112 of the box 110 when the insect is delivered.

That is, the smooth surface of the Manila paper may be used as the inner surface 112 by coating a slippery vinyl film on the inner surface 112 of the box 110 or making the material of the box 110 a conventional Manila paper.

Here, Manila generally refers to thick paper that has been commercialized in the past, and is made of wood pulp and a mixture of manila hemp.

Manila has a slippery surface on one side and a rough surface on the other side, so a slippery surface can be used as the inner surface 112 of the box 110.

In addition to coating the vinyl film on the inner surface 112 or using conventional Manila paper, there is no other way to slip the inner surface 112 of the box 110 so that the insect does not climb. It is possible.

The size of the entire box 110 may be adjusted to suit the delivery and lamination. For example, the size of the box 110 may be 30 cm * 29 cm * 22 cm. This is a numerical value in the case where the lid 111 of the box 110 is covered.

3, the side window 120 is an inner and perforated portion formed at the center of one of the four sides of the box 110. The shape of the side window 120 may be a polygon such as a square or a rectangle, The shape is possible. As an example, a square window can be formed on any one surface of the box 110.

A plurality of perforated lines 121 are formed on at least one side of the box 110 according to the shape and size of the side window 120.

Before the grasshopper insect delivery box 100 is used, the side window 120 is not penetrated into the interior. In actual use, the user selects the perforation line 121 of a desired size among the plurality of perforation lines 121 So that the side window 120 can be directly formed by removing a part of the side surface of the box 110.

As one example of such a perforated line 121, three large-sized and medium-sized boxes may be formed on the side of the box at the same time. The size of each of the large-sized and the small-sized boxes 121 is 30 cm * 29 cm * 22 cm The size of the perforated line 121 may be 8 cm * 8 cm in width and the size of the perforated line 121 may be 5 cm * 5 cm in width and length. .

As a result, the user can select the size of the side window 120 according to need, by selecting any one of large and small.

Referring to FIG. 4, a wire net 122 may be installed on the outer surface 114 of the box 110 so that insects can not escape from the side window 120, but air can be smoothly communicated.

The size of the wire net 122 may be cut to be larger than the size of the side window 120. For example, the size of the wire net 122 may be cut out from a plurality of perforated lines 121 capable of forming the side window 120, The length of the wire net 122 is 13 cm * 13 cm in width and 12 cm * 12 cm in width and height. In addition, the size of the mesh of the wire net 122 may be 0.8 cm 0.8 cm in width and length.

In this way, the side window 120 can be selectively formed on at least one of the side surfaces of the box 110, so that the oxygen supply can be appropriately performed according to the number of insects to be delivered.

Referring to FIG. 5, there is shown a separated state and a coupled state of the space section 130, which is inserted into the grasshopper insect delivery box 100 to partition the internal space of the box 110.

The space partition 130 is formed by assembling a plurality of partitions 131. The space is appropriately separated by being inserted into the space inside the box 110. [

That is, the inner space of the box 110 is equally divided into a plurality of rectangular parallelepiped-shaped spaces surrounded by the partition 131 by the space partition 130.

By doing so, locust beetle insects can enter each of the cuboid spaces and reduce the stress by ensuring that the locust beetle moves within it during delivery.

In addition, by dividing the inner space of the box 110 by the space divider 130, the number of locust insects that can actually be delivered to the same space is relatively increased.

In other words, it is conventionally tearing newspapers to fill the box, then sending locust beetle insects, insect locust beetle insects on onion nets, and putting them in a box, and inserting a larger number of locust beetles It can bring about the effect of actual space expansion.

A plurality of coupling grooves 132 are formed in the partition 131 so as to extend from one side of the partition 131 in the longitudinal direction of the partition 131 to the middle of the width so as to be coupled with another partition 131.

That is, when the coupling grooves 132 formed in the partition 131 and the coupling grooves 132 of the other partition 131 intersect with each other while facing each other, the partition 131 can be coupled.

When another partition 131 is joined to the other coupling groove 132 in the same manner, a plurality of raised cuboid spaces are generated (see FIG. 5 (b)),

In addition, a plurality of through-holes 133 are formed in the partition 131 so that air can be communicated as well as insects of grasshoppers can be appropriately moved.

The cross section of the through hole 133 may be polygonal or circular and may be formed without regard to the shape.

The size of the partition 131 and the size or the number of the coupling grooves 132 and the through holes 133 can be changed in accordance with the internal space of the box 110. [

For example, when the width, length, and height of the entire box 110 are 30 cm * 29 cm * 22 cm, the size of each partition 131 is 29 cm * 16 cm in width and 0.3 cm in thickness cm. < / RTI >

The coupling grooves 132 formed in the partition 131 may have a depth and a width of 8 cm * 0.3 cm, and three coupling grooves 132 may be formed at even intervals.

The shape of the through-hole 133 may be circular, and the diameter of the through-hole 133 may be four, and the position may be different for each partition 131 to form two.

The partition 131 may be made of corrugated cardboard having a certain thickness. Any kind of paper having a certain level of bearing capacity can be applied to the present invention regardless of the kind thereof.

Hereinafter, practical use examples of the locust bean delivery box 100 configured as described above will be described.

First, the box 110 is assembled to form a general-shaped cube box having an open top.

Subsequently, the size of the side window 120 is determined according to the number of individuals of the locust bean to be delivered into the box 110, the paper on the side of the box 110 is removed along the perforation line 121 corresponding to the size, (120).

A plurality of partitions (131) are assembled to form a space section (130). The assembled space section 131 is put into the box 110.

When the grasshopper insect delivery box 100 is provided as described above, an appropriate number of grasshoppers insects are inserted into the respective rectangular spaces divided by the space section 130.

Finally, an air cap or an element such as an onion for preventing escape may be covered on the upper part to prevent the space partition 130 from shaking.

When the operation is completed, the lid 111 of the box 110 is covered and sealed, and then a plurality of grasshopper insect delivering boxes 100 are stacked and transported.

The insects in the insect delivery box 100 can freely jump within the respective cuboid spaces divided into the space divisions 130 and 130, and can move freely around the respective cuboid spaces through the through holes 133 To be moved to another rectangular space of the body, thereby securing the activity space, thereby reducing the stress of insects that may occur during shipment.

Also, the air communicated through the side window 120 can smoothly supply oxygen to the insects in each rectangular parallelepiped space by passing through the through holes 133.

Then, even if the insect that freely travels through the space section 130 reaches the inner surface 112 of the box 110, the smooth surface of the slippery vinyl film or the surface of the Manila, Thereby preventing escape.

In this way, by inserting a grasshopper insect bumblebee or a pair of crickets into the grasshopper insect delivery box 100 of the present invention, the insects can be smoothly delivered to a living state by a proper space, smooth oxygen supply and escape prevention structure .

The locust bean delivery box as described above is not limited to the construction and operation of the embodiments described above. The above embodiments may be configured so that all or some of the embodiments may be selectively combined to make various modifications.
