Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of breeding equipment, and specifically relates to a feeding and distribution device. Background Art

[0002] Traditional aquaculture production methods are significantly impacted by the deterioration of the external aquatic environment and internal water quality. This has squeezed inland and coastal aquaculture space, leading to declining aquatic product quality, frequent disease outbreaks, and increasingly severe environmental problems. Domestic land-based and offshore aquaculture methods lack efficient management, resulting in low economic profits and intense competitive pressures. There is an urgent need to seek new economic growth points through technological innovation and industrial restructuring. However, deep-sea areas, located far from the mainland, offer excellent environmental conditions for aquaculture development, including high-quality water sources, a suitable marine environment, and a safety margin from land-based pollution and diseases, making them suitable for large-scale aquaculture development.

[0003] With the continued production and operation of large-scale cages and aquaculture vessels, the demand for related equipment is also growing. Currently, one type of feeding system developed overseas features a feeding system with a large cage cluster at the far end of its pipes. The feed distributor is a key component of the feeding system. By selecting the pipes for the feed distributor, different pipe combinations can be used to simultaneously transport feed pellets. During domestic application of the feeding system, users reported a practical problem: too short a feeding time in a single feeding area can easily result in insufficient feed pellets, placing a heavy burden on switching equipment and hindering control process planning. Furthermore, the feeding time should not be too long, as this will cause fish from other areas to flock to the feeding area to compete for food.

[0004] Different breeding environments also require automatic feeding systems that can select multiple feeding points independently. Figure 1 , Figure 1 The circular area shown is used as the feeding area. Since most cages are open to seawater aquaculture, the feed pellets will drift with the wind direction and ocean current after being spread. In order to minimize the waste of feed pellets, it is necessary to consider the wind direction and ocean current direction when selecting the feeding point. Figure 2 , Figure 2 The aquaculture pond shown is the breeding area. Because aquaculture vessels operate in closed systems, feed pellets are traditionally fed in a rotational manner, each compartment at a time. This method of feeding pellets results in excessively long feeding times. To speed up feeding time within each compartment, a high-powered automatic feeding system is used, which increases the power requirements of the vessel design and operating costs.

[0032] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to realize the different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application.

[0033] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4The present application provides a feeding distribution device, and in particular relates to a feeding distribution device suitable for conveying flake or granular erbium feed in large cages and aquaculture vessels. The feeding distribution device of the present application comprises: a feeding rotary mechanism 100, the feeding rotary mechanism 100 comprises a distribution pipe 120, the distribution pipe 120 is used to disperse feed particles, and the distribution pipe 120 is evenly provided with a plurality of distribution pipes 120, which can evenly disperse feed particles; a discharging regulating mechanism 200, the discharging regulating mechanism 200 comprises a valve group 300, The insert plate 240 and the discharge pipe 250, the valve group 300 is provided with a second cavity 201 and a guide groove 231, the second cavity 201 is used to receive feed particles, the insert plate 240 is arranged in the guide groove 231, and the guide groove 231 has a first position and a second position; the insert plate 240 is located in the first position of the guide groove 231, so that the discharge pipe 250 is connected to the second cavity 201 and outputs feed particles; the insert plate 240 is located in the second position of the guide groove 231, so that the discharge pipe 250 is isolated from the second cavity 201.

[0034] Therefore, the feeding distribution device of the present application evenly disperses the feed particles through multiple distribution pipes 120, thereby improving the uniformity of the feed particle distribution of the feed rotating mechanism 100; by setting the plug plate 240 of the discharge adjustment mechanism 200 in the guide groove 231, when the plug plate 240 is in the first position of the guide groove 231, the discharge pipe 250 is connected to the second cavity 201 and outputs the feed particles, ensuring that the feed particles are evenly scattered during the descent process. The feeding distribution device of the present application distributes the feed particles to different breeding areas, and by controlling the movement of the plug plate 240 along the guide groove 231, the discharge pipe 250 of the intended area can be selected for feeding, thereby achieving simultaneous feeding of multiple breeding areas.

[0035] In the embodiment of the present application, the feeding rotating mechanism 100 further includes a first body 110 , the first body 110 is provided with a first cavity 101 , a distribution pipe 120 is provided in the first cavity 101 , and the distribution pipe 120 is used to evenly disperse the feed particles in the first cavity 101 .

[0036] like Figure 4As shown, the feed rotary mechanism 100 further includes: a first pipeline 130, a flange 140, a rotating inner ring 150, a first outer ring 160, and a material distribution cone 170. The rotating inner ring 150 is disposed within the first outer ring 160, and the first outer ring 160 and the rotating inner ring 150 are disposed on opposite sides of the flange 140. The first pipeline 130 is disposed on the side of the flange 140 facing away from the rotating inner ring 150. The material distribution cone 170 communicates between the rotating inner ring 150 and the material distribution pipe 120. The first body 110 is connected to the material distribution cone 170 and the first outer ring 160, respectively. Since the flange 140 is connected between the first pipeline 130 and the rotating inner ring 150, in order to coordinate the position adjustment of the first pipeline 130 in the application scenario, the flange 140 adopts a loose flange. The first pipeline 130 is a feed elbow, which is used to achieve a pipeline connection with the rotating inner ring 150. The first pipeline 130 is used to receive feed particles and change the movement direction of the feed particles. The feed particles received by the first pipeline 130 are used as raw materials. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the raw materials input are feed particles. In other embodiments, the raw materials input can be other types of feed instead of granular feed, for example, block feed or powdered feed; the distribution cone 170 is used to initially distribute the feed particles and transport them to the distribution pipe 120, and the distribution pipe 120 is used to control the movement trajectory of the feed particles in the first cavity 101.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the feed rotating mechanism 100 further includes a bearing 180, which is disposed between the rotating inner ring 150 and the first outer ring 160; the bearing 180 is mounted on the rotating inner ring 150 and fixedly mounted to the first body 110; the first outer ring 160 is used as a support for the bearing 180, and the rotating inner ring 150 is used to support the bearing 180 and allow feed particles to pass through the channel of the rotating inner ring 150; the bearing 180 serves as a force-bearing support for the feed rotating mechanism 100, ensuring that the feed rotating mechanism 100 moves under conditions of minimal friction.

[0038] It should be noted that because multiple distribution pipes 120 are connected to the distribution cone 170, the combination of the multiple distribution pipes 120 allows the distribution cone 170 to rotate unpowered about the axis of the bearing 180. Rotation of the feed rotary mechanism 100 further improves the uniformity of the distribution of feed pellets by the distribution cone 170. It should be noted that the distribution pipe 120 has an outlet 121, which is bent outward relative to the extension direction of the distribution pipe 120. The angle of the outlet 121 of the distribution pipe 120 is designed to ensure that the feed pellets are not dispersed by the feed rotary mechanism 100.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first body 110 is provided with an observation window 111, which is connected to the first cavity 101. The first cavity 101 is used to provide a rotation space for the distribution tube 120; the user can observe the rotation of the distribution tube 120 in the first cavity 101 and the distribution of feed particles in the distribution tube 120 in real time through the observation window 111.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the feeding process of the feed distribution device for feed particles is as follows: when the feed particles enter the feeding rotating mechanism 100, the feed particles first enter the first pipeline 130, and the feed particles will turn from the first pipeline 130 to the rotating inner ring 150 and enter the dividing cone 170. The dividing cone 170 is used for the initial distribution of feed particles. The dividing cone 170 has two outlets. The two outlets of the dividing cone 170 are respectively connected to the dividing pipe 120. The two outlets of the dividing pipe 120 are in opposite directions. When the air carrying material passes through the two outlets of the dividing pipe 120, a reverse force will be generated, which will drive the feeding rotating mechanism 100 to rotate together. After the feeding rotating mechanism 100 rotates, the feed particles will be more evenly distributed.

[0041] In the feeding distribution device of the embodiment of the present application, the feed rotating mechanism 100 also includes a first cone 112, which is arranged in the first body 110. The first cone 112 and the first body 110 enclose a first cavity 101, and the distribution pipe 120 extends into the first cavity 101. The first cone 112 is used to isolate the internal air to stabilize the airflow, and the first cavity 101 is used to control the movement trajectory of the feed particles.

[0042] Continued Figure 4 In the feeding distribution device and the discharge adjustment mechanism 200 of the embodiment of the present application, the valve group 300 includes a second body 210, a distribution disc 220 and a valve seat 230.

The first body 110 and the second body 210 are integrally connected. The second cavity 201 of the second body 210 is connected to the first cavity 101 of the first body 110 to form an accommodating cavity. The accommodating cavity is an integral cavity and is a sealed cavity. The distribution disc 220 is arranged on the side of the second body 210 away from the feed rotating mechanism 100, and the distribution disc 220 and the second body 210 enclose a second cavity 201; the valve seat 230 is arranged on the side of the distribution disc 220 away from the second body 210, and the end of the distribution disc 220 close to the valve seat 230 is stacked with the valve seat 230. The valve seat 230 is provided with a guide groove 231, and the plug plate 240 is arranged between the valve seat 230 and the distribution disc 220. The plug plate 240 slides in the guide groove 231, and the plug plate 240 serves as a reciprocating actuator for controlling the communication of the valve group 300.

[0043] In an embodiment of the present application, the valve group 300 further includes a cover plate 260, which is arranged on the side of the valve seat 230 away from the distribution disc 220. The cover plate 260 and the valve seat 230 are stacked, and the discharge pipe 250 is arranged on the side of the cover plate 260 away from the valve seat 230. The discharge pipe 250 is used to increase the rotation radius to ensure the rotation speed. The discharge pipe 250 is a rotary discharge pipe, and the number of discharge pipes can be one or more. It should be added that in an embodiment of the present application, the valve seat 230 and the cover plate 260 are stacked, and the guide groove 231 of the valve seat 230 is located between the cover plate 260 and the valve seat 230. The plug plate 240 is arranged between the cover plate 260 and the valve seat 230 and the plug plate 240 is located in the guide groove 231.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present application, the distribution disc 220 and the valve seat 230 are both provided with a first through hole 202, the discharge pipe 250 is connected to the end of the valve seat 230 away from the distribution disc 220, the discharge pipe 250 is communicated with the first through hole 202, the plug plate 240 is provided with a second through hole 203, the second through hole 203 is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the first through hole 202, the discharge pipe 250 is communicated with the first through hole 202 in a one-to-one correspondence, the first through hole 202 of the distribution disc 220, the first through hole 202 of the valve seat 230, and the first through hole 202 of the cover plate 260 are all connected and connected to the discharge pipe 250; the first through holes 202 provided on the distribution disc 220, the valve seat 230, and the cover plate 260 are used to ensure the uniformity of feed particle distribution, which can avoid the residual deterioration of feed particles affecting breeding safety. When the insert plate 240 slides along the guide groove 231, while the insert plate 240 is in the first position of the guide groove 231, the second through hole 203 of the insert plate 240 and the first through hole 202 of the guide groove 231 are staggered with each other so that the discharge pipe 250 is connected to the second cavity 201, or, while the insert plate 240 is in the second position of the guide groove 231, the second through hole 203 of the insert plate 240 and the first through hole 202 of the guide groove 231 at least partially overlap, so that the discharge pipe 250 and the second cavity 201 are isolated from each other.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, the plug plate 240 moves between the valve seat 230 and the cover plate 260 and slides in the guide groove 231.

[0046] It should be noted that the distribution disc 220 is provided with multiple grilles, which protrude circumferentially from the outer surface of the distribution disc 220. The multiple grilles and the distribution disc 220 are an integral structure. The multiple grilles are used to evenly divide the circular area of ​​the distribution disc 220 into multiple distribution areas. The distribution areas correspond one-to-one with the discharge pipes 250, that is, the number of distribution areas is equal to the number of discharge pipes 250. The distribution areas are used to gradually transition the distribution disc 220 to the size of the pipe cross section. The valve seat 230 is disposed below the grilles. It should be noted that the number of the first through-holes 202 of the distribution disc 220, the first through-holes 202 of the valve seat 230, and the first through-holes 202 of the cover plate 260 can all be adaptively designed, and the number of the first through-holes 202 is consistent with the number of the breeding areas.
