Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a flower beetle larvae breeding equipment having improved ventilation structure,

The present invention relates to a flower beetle larva rearing apparatus having an improved ventilation structure, wherein a filter member containing a deep ventilation structure, a charcoal and a zeolite component is provided in a culture medium housed in a breeding box, Thereby preventing the deterioration of the medium caused by abnormal fermentation of the medium and preventing the growth of the medium by continuous circulation of the external air, To an apparatus for raising a flowering beetle larva having an improved ventilation structure in which a constant amount of oxygen concentration is maintained in a high quality medium in which harmful air is discharged, and a flower beetle larva is raised.

In general, larvae of a flower insect (aka: slugs) have a very short survival period, usually about 10 to 20 days, as adults, but their survival as a larva is about 17 years, which is very long.

The eggs of the cicadas produced within the plant tissue such as the larvae of the dead larvae hatch in about 10 months and the larvae spontaneously fall on the ground and crawl into the ground in the gaps of the soil, The first instar larva grows by sucking the sap from the root, and repeats 4 times of molting, and becomes a seedling. It is known that the body which became white became brown at this time and transforms to the adult moth that is one day or a few years later.

In recent years, it has been known that not only the larva of cicadas but also the larva of other insects have the above-mentioned pharmacological effect similar to that of cicadas. The term " slugs " is used to refer to larvae of beetles or beetle insects. The larvae of insects are mixed and used.

Meanwhile, the slugs are known to be rich in protein, fat, and inorganic substances. Such slugs have recently begun to attract attention because they have the function of activating blood circulation to release and eliminate blood and eosinophils, which causes damage to muscles and bones, , Can be used as a medicinal herb to treat the symptoms of paralysis of the throat, feces, feces and nose, when the woman's physiology is cut off and the stomach is sick, when the mother's milk does not come out well, And the effect of reducing the incidence of liver cirrhosis, and furthermore, it is known that liver cancer is also effective.

The slugs useful for medicinal purposes have been able to meet the demand by digesting and collecting near the roots of various herbaceous plants such as rotting herb, soil, and crops of the herbage house. Recently, environmental pollution caused by pesticides, As the cause is decreasing, the supply is not in equilibrium compared to the increase in demand.

In order to overcome this reality, research is being conducted to develop various slug breeding methods. Most of these studies are related to the feeding environment and the food provided during breeding. So far, It is said that the most common method is to feed the fruits such as watermelon, apple, and banana as a prey after creating an environment similar to the composting Sanayachi environment, which is the natural habitat of slugs, which is made of sawdust made by crushing wood.

Techniques for such slug breeding techniques are also disclosed in the prior art on the patent / utility model.

For example, Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 1992-0011351 discloses a method in which a mixture of straw, manure, cow dung, and the like is placed in an open air at a temperature of 25-35 ° C or in a manure container made of wood or concrete disposed in the room, It has been disclosed that spawning caterpillars are scattered in a manure container and maintained at 25-35 ° C for about 15 days in a plastic state with the vine remaining, to breed about 3-4 cm long slugs.

Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2000-0030598 discloses a method of applying clean mud to a floor of a breeding ground made of a vinyl house to a thickness of 30 cm, applying oak sawdust to a top of a mud layer to a thickness of 50 cm, Of the sawdust layer is fed and the predetermined humidity is maintained, the sawdust layer is fermented for 2 to 6 months, and after passing through the fermentation step of the sawdust layer, The method of breeding has been disclosed.

These attempts, however, have commonly been used in breeding, such as in the presence of hygiene problems in bait or prey, or in unrealized methods such as cicadas being spawned themselves, or in the difficulty of maintaining the actual breeding conditions of the slugs They have problems such as requiring expertise, or having defects that are vulnerable to invasion by other pests or enemies.

Therefore, there is a need for a new slug breeding method that does not require special skill in maintenance in the actual implementation, while having all of hygiene, feasibility, and economy.

Meanwhile, recently, in the process of culturing the white spotted moth flower, a variety of fermenting bacteria are added to various organic materials such as oak wood sawdust, and the fermented broth is mass-produced, and the fermented broth is dispensed in a proper amount , And the larvae hatch and grow in the medium contained in the breeding box.

When the larva is raised in a small-sized breeding space by feeding the feed medium into the breeding box having the size set as described above, it is possible to block the penetration of other pests or nemesis due to the external environment.

However, it takes a period of at least 30 days to grow the larvae by injecting the medium into a plastic housing box, and the medium once inserted is maintained in the breeding box for an average of 60 days or longer. In order to maintain the humidity, a watering process is carried out which continuously spray water.

Therefore, the above-mentioned medium causes a large amount of water continuously supplied in a state where the air is not stably ventilated, causing the generation of bacteria and pathogenic bacteria in the medium and the generation of toxic gas inside the medium, Which can cause bacterial infections of the larvae and detachment of the medium itself.

Therefore, when the larvae are kept in the breeding box for a long time, the infestation of the medium, infection of pathogenic bacteria, and release of noxious gases often caused death of the larvae growing in the breeding space.

It is an object of the present invention, which is devised to overcome the above-described problems, to provide a filter medium containing a ventilation structure of a deep layer, a charcoal and a zeolite component in a culture medium housed in a breeding box, By inhibiting the expression of airborne bacteria and pathogenic bacteria and preventing the deterioration due to abnormal fermentation of the medium by inhibiting the expression of airborne bacteria and pathogenic bacteria and proliferating the effective bacteria, by continuously sterilizing and filtering air to be ventilated and ventilated, The present invention provides a flower beetle larva rearing apparatus capable of maintaining the flowering beetle larvae in a high-quality medium in which oxygen concentration is maintained and harmful air is discharged.
