Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of ships, and particularly to a breeding ship. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, deep-sea breeding ships are mainly used for breeding deep-sea aquatic products in deep-sea areas. The breeding ship needs to inject seawater from the deep sea into the breeding cabin inside the hull and maintain a temperature and environment similar to that of the deep sea. The longitudinal depth of the breeding cabin is very deep so that different types of aquatic products can be cultivated at different heights in the breeding cabin.

[0003] Due to the large wind and waves in the deep-sea environment, when the breeding ship sways, the seawater in the breeding space impacts the hull surface of the breeding ship that forms the breeding space, which easily causes fatigue damage and rupture of the hull surface. At the same time, the pollutants caused by the breeding fish are easily attached to the hull surface, which also causes damage to the hull surface. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defect that the hull of the breeding ship in the prior art has poor anti-sway performance and cannot meet the needs of deep-sea breeding, and to provide a breeding ship.

[0005] The present invention solves the above technical problem through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A breeding ship, which includes a hull. A breeding space is provided on the hull. A support cabin is provided inside the hull. The support cabin is used to hold liquid. The breeding ship further includes a breeding water tank. The upper part of the breeding water tank is open and encloses the breeding space. The breeding water tank is arranged in the support cabin and can float in the support cabin.

[0007] For this breeding ship, by arranging the breeding water tank in the support cabin and supporting the breeding water tank by the buoyancy of the liquid in the support cabin, the breeding space is independent of the hull itself and does not directly contact rigidly. When the breeding ship sways on the sea surface, the impact on the hull caused by the water sway in the breeding space is effectively reduced, and the durability of the hull is improved. At the same time, by supporting the breeding water tank with buoyancy, the internal and external pressures of the breeding water tank are balanced, and the force is more optimized.

[0008] In addition, the liquid between the support cabin of the hull and the breeding water tank will not be polluted by the cultivated fish, thereby reducing the pollution caused by fish breeding to the hull surface and improving the service durability of the hull.

[0009] Preferably, the breeding ship further includes a liquid discharge system. The liquid inlet of the liquid discharge system is arranged in the support cabin, and a support member is provided at the bottom of the support cabin;

[0010] When the liquid in the support tank is discharged by the liquid discharge system, the bottom of the aquaculture water tank can come into contact with the support member.

[0011] By arranging a liquid discharge system to discharge the liquid in the support tank, it is convenient to maintain and detect the side wall of the hull corresponding to the support tank, so as to discover the fatigue damage points of the hull in advance.

[0012] Preferably, the aquaculture ship further includes a liquid inlet system and a liquid discharge system, and the liquid outlet of the liquid inlet system and the liquid inlet of the liquid discharge system are both arranged in the support tank.

[0013] By arranging a liquid inlet system and a liquid discharge system, the amount of liquid in the support tank can be adjusted, so as to change the height of the aquaculture water tank relative to the support tank, in order to better reduce the impact of the aquaculture water tank on the support tank when the aquaculture ship sways.

[0014] Preferably, the support tank is surrounded by the inner wall of the ship's cabin of the hull.

[0015] With this structural arrangement, the structural strength of the support tank is improved.

[0016] Preferably, the aquaculture water tank is made of a transparent material.

[0017] With this structural arrangement, it is convenient to observe the fish situation at the bottom of the aquaculture space.

[0018] Preferably, the side wall shape of the aquaculture water tank is circular.

[0019] With this structural arrangement, the internal and external forces of the aquaculture water tank are evenly distributed, so as to further ensure the balance of the internal and external pressures of the aquaculture water tank. At the same time, the circular tank body can provide a relatively larger volume.

[0020] Preferably, the shape of the side wall of the support tank is a polygon adapted to the shape of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank.

[0021] With this structural arrangement, when the hull sways, the aquaculture water tank can come into contact with the side wall of the support tank at multiple points, avoiding the breakage of the aquaculture water tank caused by point contact with the support tank.

[0022] Preferably, the shape of the side wall of the support tank is an arc adapted to the shape of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank, and the diameter of the side wall is larger than the diameter of the tank body.

[0023] With this structural arrangement, the water pressure between the side wall of the support tank and the aquaculture water tank is balanced, and the aquaculture water tank can be prevented from colliding with the side wall of the support tank when the hull sways slightly.

[0024] Preferably, a buffer pad is provided on the side wall of the support tank, and the buffer pad is used to buffer the impact force generated when the aquaculture water tank comes into contact with the support tank.

[0025] With this structural arrangement, when the hull sways, the impact force generated when the aquaculture water tank touches the side wall of the support tank is reduced, avoiding damage to the aquaculture water tank.

[0026] Preferably, the bottom shape of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank is hemispherical.

[0027] With this structural arrangement, the buoyancy of the liquid in the support tank acting on the aquaculture water tank is kept uniform, improving the floating stability of the aquaculture water tank in the support tank.

[0028] Preferably, the shape of the bottom of the support tank is a polygon adapted to the bottom shape of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank.

[0029] With this structural arrangement, when the hull sways, multiple points of contact can be achieved between the bottom of the aquaculture water tank and the bottom of the support tank, avoiding damage to the aquaculture water tank caused by point contact of the aquaculture water tank relative to the support tank.

[0030] Preferably, the bottom of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank has a waste discharge outlet, and the waste discharge outlet is located at the central position of the bottom of the tank body.

[0031] With this structural arrangement, it is convenient for the dirt generated by the cultured fish to be discharged from the aquaculture water tank due to the action of gravity.

[0032] Preferably, the hull also has an operation platform, and the operation platform is arranged at a position higher than the liquid level in the support tank, and the operation platform is at least adjacent to one side of the aquaculture water tank.

[0033] With this structural arrangement, it is convenient for the crew on the ship to patrol and observe the aquaculture and growth conditions of the fish in the aquaculture space.

[0034] Preferably, a guardrail is provided at the edge of the operation platform facing the aquaculture water tank.

[0035] With this structural arrangement, it ensures the safety of personnel walking on the operation platform. At the same time, it provides a support point on the operation platform, facilitating the personnel to carry out fishing operations.

[0036] The positive and progressive effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0037] The aquaculture ship has its aquaculture water tanks arranged in the support cabins. The aquaculture water tanks are supported by the liquid buoyancy in the support cabins, making the aquaculture space independent of the hull itself and not in direct rigid contact. When the aquaculture ship sways on the sea surface, the impact on the hull caused by the water sloshing in the aquaculture space is effectively reduced, improving the durability of the hull. At the same time, by supporting the aquaculture water tanks with buoyancy, the internal and external pressures of the aquaculture water tanks are balanced, and the force is more optimized, enabling the aquaculture ship to better adapt to the deep-sea conditions and improving the reliability and durability of the aquaculture ship for deep-sea aquaculture.

[0038] In addition, the liquid between the support cabin of the hull and the aquaculture water tank will not be polluted by the cultured fish, thereby reducing the pollution caused by fish farming to the hull surface and improving the service durability of the hull.

[0050] The present invention will be further described below by way of embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the described embodiments.

[0051] The present invention provides an aquaculture ship, which includes a hull 1 and an aquaculture water tank 2. As Figure 1As shown in the figure, there are multiple support compartments 11 inside the hull 1. The support compartments 11 are directly enclosed by the inner wall of the steel structure of the hull 1. These support compartments 11 are distributed on both sides of the hull 1 in the width direction of the hull 1. As Figure 2 shown, these support compartments 11 are at the same height and are all below the deck 3. The interior of the support compartment 11 is used to hold liquid, which is seawater in this embodiment. The upper part of the aquaculture water tank 2 is open and encloses an aquaculture space 21 for cultivating fish. The number of the aquaculture water tanks 2 is the same as that of the support compartments 11, and they are respectively arranged corresponding to the support compartments 11 and can float in the corresponding support compartments 11.

[0052] In this aquaculture ship, by arranging the aquaculture water tanks 2 in the support compartments 11 and supporting the aquaculture water tanks 2 by the buoyancy of the liquid in the support compartments 11, the aquaculture space 21 is independent of the hull 1 itself and will not directly contact rigidly. When the aquaculture ship sways on the sea surface, the impact on the hull 1 caused by the water sloshing in the aquaculture space 21 is effectively reduced, and the durability of the hull 1 is improved. At the same time, by supporting the aquaculture water tanks 2 by buoyancy, the internal and external pressures of the aquaculture water tanks 2 are balanced, and the force is more optimized, so that the aquaculture ship can better adapt to the deep-sea sea conditions and improve the reliability and durability of the aquaculture ship for deep-sea aquaculture. Among them, the liquid level in the aquaculture water tank 2 can be lower than the liquid level 15 in the support compartment 11 to ensure that the aquaculture water tank 2 can float in the support compartment 11.

[0053] In addition, the liquid between the support compartment 11 of the hull 1 and the aquaculture water tank 2 will not be polluted by the cultivated fish, thereby reducing the pollution caused by fish farming to the surface of the hull 1 and improving the service durability of the hull 1. At the same time, by additionally arranging the aquaculture water tanks 2 to separate the cultivated fish from the structure of the hull 1, the heat transfer is reduced to avoid the rapid rise of the temperature of the seawater for cultivating deep-sea fish, so that the cost of keeping the aquaculture seawater at a lower temperature can be saved.

[0054] Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, the side wall 12 of the tank body of these aquaculture water tanks 2 is circular in shape. Through this structural setting, the internal and external forces of the aquaculture water tank 2 are evenly distributed to further ensure the balance of the internal and external pressures of the aquaculture water tank 2. In the case where the multiple support compartments 11 are arranged in two rows in the length direction of the hull 1, the layout scheme of staggering these support compartments 11 can also increase the diameter of the tank body of a single aquaculture water tank 2 without increasing the width of the hull 1, so as to ensure sufficient aquaculture area and space.

[0055] Meanwhile, the circular tank body can also provide a relatively larger volume. In addition, the shape of the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11 is a polygon adapted to the shape of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank 2, so that when the hull 1 sways, the aquaculture water tank 2 can make multi-point contact with the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11, avoiding the breakage of the aquaculture water tank 2 caused by point contact of the aquaculture water tank 2 relative to the support cabin 11. On this basis, in order to further avoid the breakage of the aquaculture water tank 2 caused by collision with the side wall 12, a buffer pad 13 made of flexible material is also provided at the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11, and the buffer pad 13 is used to buffer the impact force generated when the aquaculture water tank 2 contacts the support cabin 11. Thus, it can better adapt to the deep-sea aquaculture environment and effectively cope with the large wind and waves in the deep sea. Among them, the buffer pad 13 can be directly pasted on the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11.

[0056] Of course, in other embodiments, the shape of the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11 can also be an arc shape adapted to the shape of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank 2, so as to further improve the supporting ability of the sea water on the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11 for the tank body of the aquaculture water tank 2 and balance the water pressure between the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11 and the aquaculture water tank 2. However, it is more difficult to process the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11 with this shape.

[0057] In addition, as Figure 2 shown, for each aquaculture water tank 2, the shape of the bottom of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank 2 is hemispherical. Through this structural setting, the buoyancy of the liquid in the support cabin 11 acting on the aquaculture water tank 2 is kept uniform, and the floating stability of the aquaculture water tank 2 in the support cabin 11 is improved. Similarly, the shape of the bottom of the support cabin 11 is also a polygon adapted to the shape of the bottom of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank 2, so that when the hull 1 sways, multi-point contact can be made between the bottom of the aquaculture water tank 2 and the bottom of the support cabin 11, avoiding the breakage of the aquaculture water tank 2 caused by point contact of the aquaculture water tank 2 relative to the support cabin 11.

[0058] There is also a waste discharge outlet 22 at the bottom of the tank body of the aquaculture water tank 2, and the waste discharge outlet 22 is located at the central position of the bottom of the tank body. Through this structural setting, it is convenient for the dirt generated by the cultured fish to be discharged from the aquaculture water tank 2 due to the action of gravity. Among them, the waste discharge outlet 22 communicates downward to the bottom of the hull 1 to achieve the purpose of collecting and concentrating the dirt generated by the fish at the bottom of the ship, so as to facilitate the output after the aquaculture ship docks. Among them, the specific scheme of the hull 1 for collecting the dirt generated by fish farming belongs to the category of the prior art, so its structure will not be described in detail here.

[0059] Further, the aquaculture water tank 2 can be made of a transparent material, so that the crew on the ship can observe the fish situation at the bottom and side positions of the aquaculture space 21 in the aquaculture water tank 2 through the area between the support cabin 11 and the aquaculture water tank 2. Compared with the prior art where the aquaculture space 21 is directly formed by the hull 1, the viewing angle is increased, which is convenient for clarifying the growth situation of the fish located at the bottom of the aquaculture space 21. In this embodiment, the aquaculture water tank 2 is made of glass material. Of course, in other embodiments, the aquaculture water tank 2 can also be made of materials such as high-strength plastics to achieve the purpose of transparency.

[0060] As Figure 2 shown, the hull 1 also has an operation platform 6, which is located below the deck 3 and is set at a position higher than the liquid level 15 in the support cabin 11. The operation platform 6 is adjacent to one side of the aquaculture water tank 2 to facilitate the walking of the crew on the ship, so as to achieve the purpose of patrolling and observing the aquaculture and growth of the fish in the aquaculture space 21. At the same time, to ensure the safety of personnel walking on the operation platform 6, a guardrail 61 is provided at the edge of the operation platform 6 facing the aquaculture water tank 2. The guardrail 61 can also provide a support point on the operation platform 6 to facilitate personnel to carry out work such as fishing.

[0061] In this embodiment, the height of the operation platform 6 is lower than the upper edge of the aquaculture water tank 2. Therefore, a buffer pad 13 is also provided on the surface of the operation platform 6 and its guardrail 61 facing the aquaculture water tank 2 to avoid hard collision with the aquaculture water tank 2 and cause damage to the aquaculture water tank 2, thereby improving the service durability of the aquaculture ship.

[0062] As Figure 4 shown, the aquaculture ship in this embodiment includes a liquid inlet system 5 and a liquid discharge system 4. Among them, the liquid inlet system 5 and the liquid discharge system 4 in Figure 4 are a liquid inlet pipe and a liquid discharge pipe, and the components providing power such as water pumps are not shown.

[0063] Among them, the liquid inlet 41 of the liquid discharge system 4 is arranged in these support cabins 11 and is located at the bottom position of the support cabin 11 to achieve the purpose of discharging the seawater in the support cabin 11. By discharging the seawater in the support cabin 11, the side wall 12 of the support cabin 11 is exposed, so as to facilitate the maintenance and detection of the side wall 12 to detect the fatigue damage points of the hull 1 in advance. When the seawater in the support cabin 11 is discharged, the buoyancy received by the aquaculture water tank 2 decreases, and thus the aquaculture water tank 2 moves downward relative to the support cabin 11. To avoid direct hard contact between the aquaculture water tank 2 and the support cabin 11, a support member 14 is provided at the bottom of the support cabin 11 to provide support for the bottom of the aquaculture water tank 2 after the aquaculture water tank 2 descends to a certain extent.

[0064] The liquid outlet 51 of the liquid inlet system 5 is also arranged at the bottom position of the support cabin 11 to add seawater to the support cabin 11. The liquid outlet 51 and the liquid inlet 41 are communicated to different sides of the support cabin 11 to improve the circulation of seawater in the support cabin 11 during the simultaneous water inlet and drainage processes, so as to ensure a relatively high clarity of the seawater in the support cabin 11. By setting the liquid inlet system 5 and the liquid discharge system 4, the regulation of the liquid level 15 in the support cabin 11 is realized, and the purpose of changing the relative height of the aquaculture water tank 2 with respect to the support cabin 11 can be achieved, which can better reduce the impact on the support cabin 11 caused by the aquaculture water tank 2 when the aquaculture ship sways.

[0065] In this embodiment, the water inlet source of the liquid inlet system 5 and the drainage source of the liquid discharge system 4 are both seawater around the aquaculture ship.

[0066] Although the specific implementation manners of the present invention have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that this is only an example. The protection scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims. Without departing from the principles and essence of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these implementation manners, but these changes and modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
