Feeding control apparatus for aquiculture of animals

Abstract

The invention relates to a feeding control apparatus for aquiculture of animals, which mainly includes an aquiculture aminal sensing module and a controller. The aquiculture aminal sensing module includes a lifting mechanism and a photo-electric sensing module, wherein the lifting mechanism is arranged in a material feeding zone and the photo-electric sensing module is arranged on the lifting mechanism. During feeding, the controller controls the lifting mechanism to move to drive the photo-electric sensing module to be immersed into the material feeding zone underwater in a pool and controls the photo-electric sensing module to start sensing. When the photo-electric sensing module detects the animals, the controller controls a feeding device to deliver feed. The apparatus is suitable for the vast majority of aquatic animals and can control the feeding full-automatically, thus significantly avoiding insufficient or exceesed material feeding.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a feeding control device for aquaculture animals, in particular to a fully automatic feeding device for aquaculture animals. Background technique [0002] Although the current aquaculture animal technology has special feeding equipment, it only has simple functions such as start-up, shutdown, and flow control, and does not have the function of specifically detecting the activity status of aquaculture animals. In other words, the known feeding equipment still has to rely on personnel to start feeding, stop, or adjust the flow of bait. [0003] However, according to the habit of general farmers, the equipment is usually turned on at a fixed time to start feeding, but the farmers generally do not stay at the feeding place for a long time after starting; They all stay at the feeding place to observe the baiting conditions of aquaculture animals, so the situation of insufficient or excessive feeding often occurs. On the other hand...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, according to the habit of general farmers, the equipment is usually turned on at a fixed time to start feeding, but the farmers generally do not stay at the feeding place for a long time after starting; They all stay at the feeding place to observe the baiting status of aquaculture animals, so there are often situations where the amount of feeding is insufficient or excessive

On the other hand, the bait of some aquaculture animals is located under the water surface or even at the bottom of the pond, so even if the fish farmer observes the baiting situation at the bank of the pond, the complete situation cannot be obtained

[0004] In addition, as mentioned above, when there is insufficient feeding, it may cause the production of aquaculture animals to be slow, or the size of the growth may be different, and it may even cause predation due to insufficient feeding, which may lead to aquaculture. animal damage

In addition, when excessive feeding occurs, not only will the bait be wasted, but the excess bait will remain in the aquaculture pond and become corrupted. In severe cases, the water quality will be acidified, which will affect the survival of aquaculture animals in the pond.
