Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of aquaculture equipment, and in particular to a multifunctional pneumatic feeding machine. Background Art

[0002] With the development of aquaculture, the traditional manual feeding method has problems such as high labor intensity, low efficiency, and feed waste. The emergence of air-conveying feeders can realize automated and precise feed feeding, greatly improving the efficiency of breeding and reducing labor costs. Air-conveying feeders can adapt to a variety of breeding modes, such as pond breeding, cage breeding, and factory-scale circulating water breeding. Through scientific feeding methods, such as the feeding mode of small amounts and multiple meals, air-conveying feeders can reduce the soaking time of feed in water, reduce feed waste, and improve feed utilization, thereby reducing breeding costs. With the advancement of science and technology, aquaculture is also developing in the direction of intelligence. As part of intelligent breeding equipment, air-conveying feeders can be combined with other intelligent equipment such as water quality monitoring, fish disease early warning and other systems to achieve comprehensive monitoring and management of the breeding process and improve the scientificity and accuracy of breeding. The use of air-conveying feeders can reduce the pollution of water bodies during manual feeding, which is conducive to environmental protection and sustainable development.

[0003] However, the existing pneumatic feeders often encounter the following problems during use:

[0004] (1) In the process of adding feed to a traditional feeder, manually lifting and dumping the feed bag is a common operation. However, this method has many inconveniences. First, manual operation requires a lot of physical strength, especially when handling large feed bags. Workers need to bear a large weight, which not only easily leads to physical fatigue, but also may cause safety hazards. Secondly, manual operation is inefficient, especially in large-scale breeding scenarios. Frequent manual feeding consumes a lot of time and labor costs. In addition, the accuracy of manual operation is difficult to guarantee, which will also lead to waste of feed.

[0005] (2) In traditional manual dumping, it is difficult to accurately control the tilt angle of the feed bag to control the dumping speed and amount of feed, and the feed is often dumped too fast or too slow, causing the material to overflow or accumulate.

[0006] (3) Existing pneumatic feeders have certain limitations in terms of feed spreading. Currently, pneumatic feeders on the market use a one-way rotation method to spread feed. This method often cannot achieve accurate feed delivery when facing an estuary or coast with an angle. Since the one-way rotation spreading method lacks specificity, feed is often scattered in large quantities on the shore or in areas where feeding is not required, resulting in feed waste. In addition, the one-way rotation spreading method is also difficult to meet the feeding needs in different breeding scenarios. For example, in some breeding areas with special shapes or in scenarios that require precise feeding, the one-way rotation spreading method may not achieve the expected feeding effect. In this case, not only will feed be wasted, but the growth and health of the farmed aquatic animals will also be affected. Summary of the invention

Compared with the one-way rotating throwing of the traditional air-conveying feeder, this fan-shaped throwing method has higher accuracy. In special terrains such as estuaries and coasts with angles, one-way rotating throwing will cause a large amount of feed to be spilled on the shore and cause waste because the direction cannot be adjusted. Fan-shaped throwing can flexibly adjust the throwing direction and range according to the terrain and needs, accurately throw the feed to the required area, and avoid feed waste.

[0067] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0068] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "configuration", "connection", and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0069] like Figure 1-5As shown, a multifunctional air-conveying feeder includes: a feeder frame 1, a feed hopper 2, a discharge valve 3, a fan 4, a discharge hose 5, a lower hopper 6, a throwing shell 7, a support shell 8, a repeated swing device 9, a bottom plate 10, a fixing frame 11, a fixing rod 12, a placing frame 13, a connecting frame 14, a force cylinder 15, a stop plate 16, and a supporting motor 17. The feeder frame 1 is arranged on the ground, the feed hopper 2 is mounted on the top of the feeder frame 1, the discharge valve 3 is mounted on the bottom discharge end of the feed hopper 2, and the fan 4 is located on one side of the discharge valve 3; the fan 4 is mounted below the feed hopper 2, one end of the discharge hose 5 is connected to the fan 4, and the lower hopper 6 is connected to the discharge hose 5, and the lower hopper 6 is responsible for receiving the material conveyed by the fan 4 and guiding it to the throwing shell 7. The top surface of the throwing shell 7 is movably connected to the bottom surface of the lower hopper 6, the supporting shell 8 is sleeved on the lower hopper 6, the repeated swinging device 9 is located below the throwing shell 7, the bottom plate 10 is arranged below the repeated swinging device 9, the fixed frame 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the feeder frame 1, the fixed rod 12 is penetrated through the top of the fixed frame 11, the placement frame 13 is located on one side of the fixed frame 11, the top of the connecting frame 14 is sleeved on the fixed rod 12, the connecting frame 14 is installed on the top of the placement frame 13, the force cylinder 15 is installed on the placement frame 13, and the output end of the force cylinder 15 is connected to one side of the placement frame 13.

[0070] In this embodiment, Figure 4-5As shown, the repeated swing device 9 also includes: the top of the rotating shaft rod 91 is connected to the ejection shell 7, the bottom end of the rotating shaft rod 91 is penetrated in the bottom shell, the main gear 92 is sleeved on the rotating shaft rod 91, the side plate 93 is located on one side of the side wheel surface of the main gear 92, the frame 94 is arranged on one side of the side plate 93, the rotating shaft connecting member 95 is arranged on one side of the frame 94, the bottom end of the swing rod 96 is installed on the rotating shaft connecting member 95, one end of the strip frame 97 is sleeved on the rod body of the swing rod 96, and the other end of the strip frame 97 is located in the limit opening 911. The main function of the strip frame 97 is to limit the movement of one end of the driving connecting rod 910 of its internal components, thereby converting the original circular motion into a continuous and repeated swinging activity. At the same time, the design that one end of the strip frame 97 is located in the limit opening 911 ensures the stability and repeatability of this special form of motion. In addition, the strip frame 97 also plays the role of connecting and transmitting motion, transmitting its own swinging motion to the sleeved rotating shaft rod 91. The force-applying member 98 is installed at the top of the swing rod 96, meshing with the main gear 92, and is a fan-shaped member. The driving motor 99 is installed on one side of the side plate 93, and one end of the driving connecting rod 910 is connected to the output end of the driving motor 99, and the other end of the driving connecting rod 910 is connected to the bar frame 97. The limit opening 911 is opened on the side plate 93. The driving connecting rod 910 plays the role of transmitting the power of the driving motor 99 to the bar frame 97, and through one end being driven and the other end rotating centrifugally in the bar frame 97, the rotational motion of the motor is converted into a special motion form of the bar frame 97, which is a continuous and repeated swinging motion, thereby realizing the motion form conversion in the power transmission process. Medium carbon steel can be used. After quenching and tempering, the medium carbon steel has good comprehensive mechanical properties and can withstand greater stress.

[0071] In the above embodiment, the bar frame 97 can be made of high-strength engineering plastics, such as polyoxymethylene (POM). POM has high strength, rigidity and wear resistance, is light in weight, and has good self-lubricating properties, which can reduce friction with other components and ensure smooth movement. At the same time, engineering plastics have good formability.

[0072] like Figure 1-2As shown, in order to design an automatic material lifting device, a support plate 16 is designed to be fixedly arranged on the top of the placing frame 13, a supporting motor 17 is installed on the top of the support plate 16, a screw 18 is installed on the output end of the supporting motor 17, two groups of external threads 19 are provided, and the two groups of external threads 19 rotate in opposite directions; the external threads 19 are provided on the rod body of the screw 18, two sliding members 20 are provided, one end of the two sliding members 20 is respectively sleeved on the two groups of external threads 19, and the slide groove 21 is slidably connected with one end of the two sliding members 20. The slide groove 21 is provided on the base plate 22, and the base plate 22 is fixedly provided on the support plate 16. The opening 23 is provided on the support plate 16, and the opening 23 is located below the sliding member 20. Two open support plates 24 are provided, and the two open support plates 24 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sliding member 20. The supporting motor 17 and the screw 18 device work together to ensure the stability of the placing frame 13 and the smooth opening of the feed bag. This design helps to avoid the bag opening from getting stuck or opening irregularly, ensuring the smooth progress of the feeding process. Before the feed bag is placed, the bag opening is automatically opened by the screw 18 device controlled by the supporting motor 17, so that the material can flow into the feed hopper 2, reducing the complexity of manual operation. At the same time, it prevents the feed bag from collapsing or closing easily when pouring the feed.

[0073] The floating leg frame 25 is distributed on the bottom surface of the bottom plate 10, and the air bag 26 is connected to the bottom surface of the floating leg frame 25. The air bag 26 can ensure that the repeated swing device 9 floats on the water surface, which is convenient for throwing materials.

[0074] It should be noted that the multifunctional pneumatic feeding machine designed by the present invention, when in use, when it is necessary to pour feed into the feed hopper 2, it is only necessary to place the feed bag on the placement rack 13 and open the bag mouth of the feed bag. At this time, the supporting motor 17 is started, and the supporting motor 17 is started to drive the screw 18 at the output end to rotate axially. The rotation of the screw 18 drives the two sliding members 20 sleeved on the rod body to move. Since the external threads 19 corresponding to the two sliding members 20 are two sets of threads with opposite rotation directions, the two sliding members 20 will move in two different directions. The displacement of the sliding members 20 drives the open support plates 24. The two open support plates 24 move to both sides until they abut against the bag mouth to keep the bag mouth open, while ensuring that it will not deform. At this time, the force cylinder 15 is started, and the output end of the force cylinder 15 pops up, pushing the placement rack 13 to lift up, and the placement rack 13 rotates around the fixed rod 12 and gradually tilts. The material in the feed bag will also be tilted. The opening 23 is poured into the feed hopper 2, and the abutment plate 16 can block the feed bag from falling. After the fan 4 guides the material from the feed hopper 2 into the ejection shell 7 through the discharge hose 5, the drive motor 99 is started. When the output end of the drive motor 99 starts to rotate, the drive connecting rod 910 is driven to move accordingly. When one end of the drive connecting rod 910 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 99, the other end thereof will rotate centrifugally inside the bar frame 97. Since one end of the bar frame 97 is in the limit opening 911, the activity of the bar frame 97 is limited to a continuous and repeated swinging activity. Then, the rotation of the bar frame 97 will drive the swing rod 96 sleeved thereon to rotate, and the swing rod 96 will drive the force member 98 located at the top thereof to swing repeatedly in a fan shape after it rotates. The repeated swinging action of the force member 98 can drive the main gear 92 meshing therewith, and the main gear 92 also starts to swing repeatedly under the drive of the force member 98, and this swinging will drive the transmission rod sleeved on the main gear 92. Finally, the repeated swinging of the rotating shaft rod 91 will prompt the scattering shell at its top to throw out the feed inside. The output feed will be scattered and diffused in a fan shape.

[0075] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
