Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0041] In the description of this invention, the use of "first" and "second" is for the purpose of distinguishing technical features only, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated or the order of the technical features indicated.

[0042] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "set up," "install," and "connect" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0043] With the continuous development of the automation industry, the use of feeders in aquaculture has become widespread. In existing technologies, some feeders have the feed hopper and conveying equipment separately located on land and in the water. These feeders not only lack versatility but also produce poor feed uniformity. Other feeders often mount the feed hopper and conveying equipment together on a float and then place them in the pond. This separate design of the feed hopper, conveying equipment, and float results in a large feeder that is difficult to move and has poor maneuverability in the water. Furthermore, because of the separate design for feed storage, the feed hopper often extends vertically, resulting in a high center of gravity and poor stability on the water surface, making it prone to tipping over.

[0044] Therefore, some embodiments of the present invention provide a feeding machine 1000, as detailed in the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-10 As shown.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the feeder 1000 includes a floating hopper 100, a hopper 200, a throwing device 300, and a conveying assembly 400. The floating hopper 100 has a cavity; the hopper 200 is located in the cavity and divides the cavity to form a storage cavity 110 and a conveying cavity 120; the throwing device 300 is located at the top of the floating hopper 100 and includes a first driver 310, a rotating shell 320, and a throwing pipe 330. The throwing pipe 330 is located on the outer peripheral wall of the rotating shell 320 and communicates with the inner cavity of the rotating shell 320. The first driver 310 is used to drive the rotating shell 320 and the throwing pipe 330 to rotate, so as to throw feed; the conveying assembly 400 includes a fan 410 and a conveying pipe 420. The conveying pipe 420 is located in the conveying cavity 120 and communicates with the inner cavities of the hopper 200 and the rotating shell 320, respectively. The fan 410 is connected to the conveying pipe 420 to blow feed to the rotating shell 320.

[0046] Understandably, the floating hopper 100 needs a large cavity to generate sufficient buoyancy to support the feeder 1000 floating on the water surface. Based on this, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, a hopper 200 can be provided in the inner cavity. The hopper 200 can divide the cavity into a storage cavity 110 and a conveying cavity 120, thereby enabling the floating silo 100 to simultaneously generate buoyancy and store feed. Furthermore, under the influence of gravity, the feed can cause the center of gravity of the floating silo 100 to point downwards, thereby improving the stability of the feeder 1000 when floating on the water surface. The storage cavity 110 can have a larger capacity than the conveying cavity 120 to store more feed. (Refer to...) Figure 1 As shown, the top of the floating hopper 100 can be provided with an opening that connects to the storage chamber 110, making it convenient for users to pour feed into the storage chamber 110. In addition, a cover 500 can be provided at the opening, which can cover the opening, thereby isolating the storage chamber 110 from the outside world and reducing the possibility of water splashing and wetting the feed in the storage chamber 110.

[0047] Reference Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the conveying pipe 420 can be installed in the conveying chamber 120. The two ends of the hopper 200 can be connected to the storage chamber 110 and the conveying pipe 420, respectively. Feed can enter the conveying pipe 420 by its own weight through the hopper 200. The two ends of the conveying pipe 420 are connected to the blower 410 and the throwing device 300, respectively. The blower 410 can use airflow as power to blow the feed to the throwing device 300. In this embodiment, the throwing device 300 can be fixed to the upper surface of the floating hopper 100, increasing the height of the throwing device 300 and thus expanding its throwing area.

[0048] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the rotating shell 320 may have an inner cavity, which can hold feed from the conveying pipe 420. The first driver 310 can drive the rotating shell 320 to rotate. Under the action of centrifugal force, the feed in the inner cavity of the rotating shell 320 can be projected onto the water surface through the throwing pipe 330 provided on the peripheral wall of the rotating shell 320. In this embodiment, the throwing device 300 can project feed in all directions by centrifugal force, greatly improving the uniformity of the projection.

[0049] Understandably, because the feeder 1000 can float on the water surface with the help of the float 100, it can move to various areas of the pond, increasing its flexibility. It can then use the throwing device 300 to throw feed into different areas of the pond, thus expanding the feeding area. Furthermore, the integration of the feed hopper, feeding equipment, and float into one unit significantly reduces the feeder's size, making it suitable for ponds of different sizes and meeting the feeding needs of ponds of varying sizes, thus improving its versatility.

[0050] This invention integrates the feed hopper, feeding device, and float into a single unit. This avoids the instability of the feeder 100 on the water surface caused by a separate design, reducing the likelihood of the feeder 100 tipping over due to instability. The invention also improves the stability and flexibility of the feeder 100, while enhancing its versatility.

[0051] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the conveying cavity 120 is located below the storage cavity 110. The projected area of ​​the storage cavity 110 in the height direction is greater than the projected area of ​​the conveying cavity 120 in the height direction. The lower end face of the storage cavity 110 is inclined upward in a direction away from the center of the floating hopper 100.

[0052] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the conveying chamber 120 can be located below the storage chamber 110, allowing the feed in the storage chamber 110 to fall through the hopper 200 into the conveying pipe 420 located in the conveying chamber 120 under the influence of gravity. Furthermore, the storage chamber 110, hopper 200, and conveying chamber 120 can be coaxial, thus making the feed flow more smoothly. In this embodiment, the projected area of ​​the storage chamber 110 in the height direction can be larger than the projected area of ​​the conveying chamber 120 in the height direction; that is, the storage chamber 110 can have a larger width relative to the conveying chamber 120. This allows the conveying chamber 120 to generate sufficient buoyancy to support the feeder 1000, reducing the possibility of the feeder 1000 tipping over and improving the stability of the feeder 1000.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the lower end face of the storage chamber 110 can be inclined. The inclined lower end face of the storage chamber 110 can enable the feed in the storage chamber 110 to gather at the center position, thereby lowering the overall center of gravity of the feeder 1000. The inclined surface can also further reduce the impact of water waves on the feeder 1000, reducing the possibility of the feeder 1000 tipping over.

[0054] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the conveying assembly 400 further includes a distributing pipe and a metering device 430 disposed in the conveying chamber 120. One end of the distributing pipe is connected to the hopper 200, and the other end is connected to the conveying pipe 420. The metering device 430 includes a third driver and a distributing assembly. The distributing assembly is disposed inside the distributing pipe and includes a rotating shaft and a spiral blade. The spiral blade extends spirally along the axial direction of the rotating shaft to form at least two loading sections 4322 for loading feed. The at least two loading sections 4322 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the distributing pipe. The drive shaft of the third driver is connected to the rotating shaft and can drive the rotating shaft to rotate the spiral blade, so that the feed in the loading section 4322 moves along the distributing pipe and is poured into the conveying pipe 420.

[0055] It should be noted that quantitative feeding can improve the accuracy of feed delivery and improve the breeding effect. Based on this, in this embodiment of the invention, the quantitative feeding of feed to the feeding device 300 by setting the metering device 430 not only improves the accuracy of feed delivery, but also allows the user to know the consumption of feed in the storage chamber 110, which helps the user to add feed in a planned manner. At the same time, setting the metering device 430 in the conveying chamber 120 can further lower the center of gravity of the feeding machine 1000 and improve the stability of the feeding machine 1000.

[0056] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the feeding component can be disposed in the feeding pipe, and a discharge pipe 433 can be disposed between the feeding pipe and the hopper 200. The feed in the hopper 200 can slide from the discharge pipe 433 into the feeding pipe. It is understood that the connection between the discharge pipe 433 and the feeding pipe is the feed inlet of the feeding pipe, and the connection between the conveying pipe 420 and the feeding pipe is the discharge outlet of the feeding pipe. The feed inlet can be aligned with at least one loading section 4322, and the discharge outlet can be aligned with at least one discharging section. The third driver can drive the rotating shaft to rotate radially, thereby driving the spiral blades to rotate, causing the feed in the loading section 4322 to move along the spiral blades to the discharge outlet. The feed can fall into the conveying pipe 420 under gravity, thus ensuring that the amount of feed fed each time is the amount loaded in the loading section 4322, achieving quantitative feeding.

[0057] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the spiral blade includes multiple interconnected spiral sections. These spiral sections are interconnected to form the spiral blade. The outer diameter of the spiral section matches the inner diameter of the dispensing pipe, thereby allowing two adjacent spiral sections to enclose the inner wall of the dispensing pipe to form a loading section 4322. (Refer to...) Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, a feeding plate may be provided between the feeding pipe and the conveying pipe 420. The feeding plate may be inclined so that the blower 410 can blow the feed from the conveying pipe toward the throwing device 300 without interfering with the feed falling from the feeding pipe into the conveying pipe, thereby further ensuring the accuracy of the quantitative feeding of the feeding pipe.

[0058] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the conveying pipe 420 includes a first pipe fitting 421 and a second pipe fitting 422. The first pipe fitting 421 is connected to a ventilator 410, and the second pipe fitting 422 is connected to a feeding device 300. The metering device 430 also includes a temporary storage pipe 435. The two ends of the temporary storage pipe 435 are respectively connected to the first pipe fitting 421 and the second pipe fitting 422. The feed distribution pipe is connected to the peripheral wall of the temporary storage pipe 435 to convey feed to the temporary storage pipe 435.

[0059] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the first pipe 421 and the second pipe 422 can be respectively disposed at both ends of the metering device 430, and the two can be symmetrically arranged about the metering device 430, thereby improving the balance of the feeder 1000. Further, in this embodiment, a temporary storage pipe 435 can be provided to connect the first pipe 421 and the second pipe 422. The temporary storage pipe 435 can be horizontally arranged. The temporary storage pipe 435 can serve as a buffer component for quantitative feed output. Specifically, all the feed output in a single quantitative manner falls into the temporary storage pipe 435, and is then blown to the throwing device 300 by the blower 410, effectively ensuring the accuracy of the single feed output by the throwing device 300.

[0060] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the blower 410 is located at the top of the floating hopper 100, and a first connecting pipe 436 is provided between the blower 410 and the conveying pipe 420. The first connecting pipe 436 is located in the cavity.

[0061] Understandably, to avoid increased repair and replacement difficulties caused by placing the blower 410 in the cavity of the floating silo 100, and to balance the weight of the throwing device 300, refer to Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the blower 410 can be located at the top of the floating silo 100 and can be positioned opposite to the material throwing device 300. (Refer to...) Figure 3 As shown, the blower 410 can be connected to the conveying pipe 420 through the first connecting pipe 436. The first connecting pipe 436 can pass through the cavity of the floating hopper 100 and connect to the first pipe fitting 421, making the overall structure of the feeding machine 1000 more compact. At the same time, the first connecting pipe 436 does not need to be set on the outside of the floating hopper 100, reducing the overall size of the feeding machine 1000, effectively reducing the volume of the feeding machine 1000, and improving the flexibility and versatility of the feeding machine 1000.

[0062] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the conveying assembly 400 further includes a housing 438 disposed at the top of the floating hopper 100. The housing 438 is provided with a receiving cavity 4381 suitable for accommodating the fan 410, and the peripheral wall of the housing 438 is provided with an air inlet 4382 communicating with the receiving cavity 4381.

[0063] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 10As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, a housing 438 can be provided at the top of the floating hopper 100, and the fan 410 can be provided in the receiving cavity 4381 inside the housing 438, thereby reducing the possibility of the fan 410 being damaged by water splashing.

[0064] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, the outer peripheral wall of the rotating shell 320 is provided with a sleeve 321, the sleeve 321 extends along the tangential direction of the rotating shell 320, and the material throwing tube 330 passes through the sleeve 321.

[0065] Understandably, to prevent feed from getting stuck in the inner cavity of the rotating shell 320, refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, a sleeve 321 can be provided on the outer peripheral wall of the rotating shell 320. One end of the sleeve 321 can communicate with the inner cavity of the rotating shell 320, and the other end can extend along the tangential direction of the rotating shell 320, so that the feed in the inner cavity of the rotating shell 320 can be thrown out more easily, reducing the possibility of feed jamming. At the same time, the sleeve 321 can effectively improve the stability of the throwing tube 330. (Refer to...) Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the inner cavity of the rotating shell 320 can be connected to the second pipe fitting 422 through the second connecting pipe 437, and the second connecting pipe 437 can be set in the cavity of the floating tank 100.

[0066] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, multiple throwing tubes 330 are provided, and the multiple throwing tubes 330 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the rotating shell 320.

[0067] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment of the invention, multiple throwing tubes 330 can be inserted into multiple sleeves 321 in a one-to-one correspondence. The multiple throwing tubes 330 can extend along different tangential directions of the rotating shell 320, thereby improving the throwing efficiency and the uniformity of the throwing.

[0068] In this embodiment of the invention, the first driver 310 is a variable frequency motor.

[0069] It is understandable that when the fixed-speed motor drives the rotating shell 320 to rotate, the thrown feed can only fall on the water surface in the form of a line. Based on this, the embodiment of the present invention can use a variable frequency motor to drive the rotating shell 320 to rotate, so that the thrown feed can fall on the water surface in the form of a surface, which greatly increases the throwing area, improves the throwing efficiency and the uniformity of the throwing.

Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them.
