Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1) Since automatic control functions such as fish feeding, water quality monitoring and net cleaning are to be realized during the breeding process, electric energy is required to maintain the normal operation of the entire breeding cage. The power supply of the existing island-type cages is mainly through the island diesel engine Power generation, and then the cables transmit electric energy to the cages to ensure the power supply of the cage facilities, but for the open sea area far away from the island, this power supply method is obviously not realistic;
[0005] 2) In addition, the weather environment on the sea surface is changeable. In the typhoon season, the cages are easy to overturn, which requires the deep-water cages to have the function of diving to avoid typhoons, while the existing cages have poor wind and wave resistance and are easy to overturn;
[0006] 3) In the open sea area, the wind and waves are relatively large, which will easily cause the loss of the effective volume of the cage, and the excessive wind and waves are not suitable for the growth of cultured fish;
[0007] 4) In deep water areas, marine attachments such as seaweed and shellfish are easily attached to the nets, which increases the resistance of the cages, causes deformation of the cages, and reduces the effective breeding volume. In order to remove the attachments on the nets, now There are a variety of net cleaning mechanisms in the technology, such as high-pressure water guns, automatic net washing machines, etc., but most of them are manually operated or driven by motors, which are cumbersome

Embodiment Construction

[0036] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0037] by figure 1 The illustrated schematic diagram of the structure of the deep-water aquaculture cage using wave energy of the present invention shows that it includes a cage 4, an anchor chain 2 and a base column 1. One end of the anchor chain 2 is connected to the cage 3, and the other end is connected to the base. The column 1 is connected, and the base column 1 is fixedly installed on the seabed. It also includes an automatic feeding system, an automatic settlement system, a remote monitoring system and an ocean energy power generation system using wave energy; the ocean energy power generation system is installed around the frame of the cage, and the automatic settlement system is installed on the upper layer of the cage 4. On the frame, the automatic feeding system is installed at the top center of the cage 4, one terminal of the remote moni...

Abstract

The invention discloses a deepwater aquaculture net cage using wave energy. The deepwater aquaculture net cage using the wave energy comprises a net cage (4), an anchor chain (2) and a foundation pillar (1). One end of the anchor chain (2) is connected with the net cage (3), the other end of the anchor chain (2) is connected with the foundation pillar (1), and the foundation pillar (1) is fixedly installed on the seabed. The deepwater aquaculture net cage using the wave energy further comprises an automatic feeding system, an automatic subsiding system, a remote monitoring system and an ocean power generation system using wave energy. The ocean power generation system is installed on the periphery of the frame of the net cage, the automatic subsiding system is installed on the upper layer frame of the net cage (4), the automatic feeding system is installed on the middle portion of the top portion of the net cage (4), one terminal of the remote monitoring system is installed on the net cage (4) under water, the other terminal is installed on a controller on shore, and two terminals are connected through a general packet radio service (GPRS) network. And therefore, the electric energy generated through the wave energy supplies energy needed by each system in a deepwater cage aquaculture process.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of deep-sea aquaculture, in particular to a deep-water aquaculture net cage using wave energy. Background technique [0002] my country's marine energy resources are very rich, and the islands and surrounding areas are rich in renewable marine energy resources. However, with the development of economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the demand for marine aquatic resources continues to increase. Overfishing in the ocean has led to a serious decline in natural fishery resources, and fishing operations can no longer guarantee the sustainable development of our marine fisheries. [0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned contradictions, the fishery production method has shifted from fishing-based to artificial cage aquaculture. However, the existing net cages have poor resistance to wind and waves, and can only be concentrated in some shallow waters and inner bays with better wind shel...
