Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture equipment technology, and in particular to a multi-point pneumatic feeding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, feeding machines are mostly used in aquaculture, which is a production activity of breeding, cultivating, and harvesting aquatic plants and animals under human control. It generally includes the entire process of raising aquatic products from seedlings to finished products under artificial feeding and management. In a broader sense, it can also include aquatic resource enhancement. Aquaculture includes extensive farming, intensive farming, and high-density intensive farming. Extensive farming involves releasing seedlings into small and medium-sized natural water bodies and raising aquatic products entirely based on natural feed, such as fish farming in lakes and reservoirs and shellfish farming in shallow seas. Intensive farming involves raising aquatic products in smaller water bodies using feeding and fertilization methods, such as fish farming in ponds, cage farming, and enclosure farming. High-density intensive farming uses methods such as flowing water, temperature control, oxygenation, and feeding high-quality feed to conduct high-density farming in small water bodies to achieve high yields, such as high-density fish and shrimp farming in flowing water.

[0003] In intensive farming, farmers need to regularly feed the breeding area. The conventional way is to feed manually, but this method not only wastes a lot of manpower and resources, but also easily causes uneven feeding. Currently, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN207461194U discloses an aquaculture feeding device, specifically comprising a feeding box and a guide rail. The feeding box moves along the guide rail via rollers on the guide rail. When the feeding box reaches the discharge port, the front baffle moves the discharge port baffle by pressing an inward-moving shaft, opening the discharge port. Feed is discharged and enters the storage pipe through the discharge port on the guide rail. As the amount of feed in the storage pipe increases, the storage pipe moves downward, eventually remaining at the bottom of the feeding pipe. At this point, the first and second feeding ports are connected, and feed is transferred from the storage pipe into the aquaculture pond. Simultaneously, the front baffle moves downward with the storage pipe, closing the discharge port of the feeding box and continuing to move forward. When the feeding in the storage pipe is finished, it automatically returns to its original position. The device is reliable in structure, small in size, and easy to operate. It can automatically feed at multiple points along the guide rail, ensuring uniform feeding and saving labor and time.

[0004] The aforementioned aquaculture feeding device operates by moving a feeding box along a guide rail to dispense feed into a storage pipe located on the guide rail, achieving multi-point feeding. However, the device has a complex overall structure, and the feeding box itself, containing feed, is quite heavy. Moving the feeding box requires a significant amount of work, resulting in high energy consumption. Furthermore, it requires constant monitoring of the feed level in the storage pipe for timely replenishment, making it very inconvenient in practical applications. Therefore, it is necessary to disclose a multi-point pneumatic feeding machine to overcome these shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a multi-point pneumatic feeding machine that can achieve precise multi-point feeding and is convenient to use.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A multi-point pneumatic feeding machine includes a housing, a hopper in the housing, a feeding device below the hopper, and a feeding pipe for connecting to the feeding device. The feeding device is used to convey feed from the hopper to the feeding pipe. The feeding pipe extends outward away from the housing.

[0008] One or more feeding components are provided along the extension direction of the feeding pipe. The feeding components have a direct current channel and a discharge channel inside. The flow direction of the direct current channel is consistent with the extension direction of the feeding pipe, and the flow direction of the discharge channel intersects with the extension direction of the feeding pipe to form an angle. The feeding components are equipped with rotating blades inside. The rotating blades rotate to control the direct current channel and the discharge channel to connect with the feeding pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, the end of the feeding pipe is connected to a blowing device to blow the feed conveyed from the feeding device into the feeding pipe toward the feeding component.

[0010] Furthermore, the feeding component is connected to a tee fitting, the inlet of the tee fitting is connected to the outlet channel, and the line connecting the two outlets of the tee fitting is perpendicular to the feeding pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, the feeding component is equipped with a motor, which is connected to the rotating blade to control the rotation of the blade.

[0012] Furthermore, the impeller is provided with a horizontal flow surface and a blocking surface; when the DC channel and the feeding pipe are in a connected state, the horizontal flow surface is set horizontally; when the discharge channel and the feeding pipe are in a connected state, the blocking surface is set at an angle to block the feed and transport it towards the discharge channel.

[0013] Furthermore, the hopper is configured as an inverted cone shape.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This utility model multi-point pneumatic feeding machine features feeding components on the feeding pipe, the number of which can be set according to actual needs. By controlling the rotation of the blades, the feeding components can switch between conveying and discharging functions, allowing the feed blown out of the feeding pipe to be discharged through any of the feeding components. This facilitates replenishment based on feed consumption at each location, achieving precise feeding. Furthermore, the machine is typically placed on the pond embankment, eliminating the need for transportation and allowing for timely feed replenishment, making it convenient to use.

[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model claims protection for a multi-point pneumatic feeder, including a housing 1, with a hopper 2 provided in the housing 1. Feed is poured into the hopper 2 by opening the top of the housing 1. A feeding device is provided below the hopper 2, and a feeding pipe 3 is also included for connection to the feeding device. The feeding device is used to transport the feed in the hopper 2 into the feeding pipe 3. The feeding pipe 3 extends outwards away from the housing 1. Figure 6 As shown, when the multi-point pneumatic feeding machine is applied in the small shed 7, the feeding pipe 3 extends along the length of the small shed 7; the small shed 7 is a structure for shrimp farming that utilizes small sheds for farming, which has the advantages of low cost and high flexibility, and is widely used in the shrimp farming field, which will not be elaborated here.

[0026] Combination Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in a multi-point pneumatic feeding machine, one or more feeding components 4 are arranged along the extension direction of the feeding pipe 3. Each feeding component 4 has a direct current channel 401 and a discharge channel 402. When the feeding component 4 is installed and connected to the feeding pipe 3, the flow direction of the direct current channel 401 is consistent with the extension direction of the feeding pipe 3, while the flow direction of the discharge channel 402 intersects the extension direction of the feeding pipe 3 at an angle. A rotating blade 403 is rotatably arranged inside the feeding component 4, and a motor 404 is installed on the feeding component 4. The motor 404 is connected to the rotating blade 403 to control its rotation. The rotation of the rotating blade 403 controls the direct current channel 401 and the discharge channel 402 to connect selectively to the feeding pipe 3. In this embodiment, the feeding component 4 has both a discharge function and a simple flow function (the simple flow function can be understood as a straight-through pipe), that is, it can... Figure 5 As shown, the vane 403 is horizontally positioned, and the entire DC channel 401 is connected to the feed pipe 3. Feed can be conveyed to the subsequent feed component 4 via the DC channel 401 of this feed component 4, or as... Figure 5 As shown, the rotating blade 403 is inclined. At this time, the DC channel 401 is blocked by the rotating blade 403. That is, the feed blown from the feeding pipe 3 will be blocked and guided to the discharge channel 402 by the rotating blade 403. The feeding component 4 is connected to the three-way pipe 6. The three-way pipe 6 has one inlet and two outlets. Specifically, the inlet of the three-way pipe 6 is connected to the discharge channel 402. The line connecting the two outlets of the three-way pipe 6 is perpendicular to the feeding pipe 3. In application, the two outlets are facing the two sides of the width direction of the shed 7. That is, the feed flowing to the discharge channel 402 is finally discharged from the three-way pipe 6 to the two sides.

[0027] Therefore, through the above design, the feed blown out from the feeding pipe 3 can be discharged through any feeding component 4, allowing multiple points on the feeding pipe 3 to be selectively discharged, so as to replenish the feed according to the feed consumption at each place and make the feeding precise.

[0028] The end of the feeding pipe 3 is connected to a blowing device 5. In this embodiment, the blowing device 5 is a fan. The blowing device 5 is activated to blow the feed that is conveyed from the feeding device to the feeding pipe 3 toward the feeding component 4.

[0029] The blade 403 is provided with a flow surface 4031 and a blocking surface 4032; combined with Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, when the DC channel 401 is connected to the feeding pipe 3, the horizontal flow surface 4031 is set horizontally, which does not affect the horizontal flow of feed in the DC channel 401; when the discharge channel 402 is connected to the feeding pipe 3, the blocking surface 4032 is set at an angle to block the feed and transport it towards the discharge channel 402.

[0030] In this embodiment, the hopper 2 is configured as an inverted cone shape, which helps the feed to gather and fall into the feeding device.

[0031] This utility model multi-point pneumatic feeding machine has feeding components 4 set on the feeding pipe 3. The number of feeding components 4 can be set according to the actual situation. By controlling the rotation of the rotating blade 403, the feeding components 4 can switch between conveying and discharging functions, so that the feed blown out by the feeding pipe 3 can be discharged through any feeding component 4, so as to replenish the feed according to the feed consumption at each place and achieve the purpose of precise feeding. In addition, the box 1 is usually placed on the pond bottom for use, which does not require transportation and facilitates timely addition of feed, making it convenient to use.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
