Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and more specifically, to a feeding machine for aquaculture. Background Technology

[0002] Aquaculture is a production industry that uses suitable waters to raise aquatic economic animals and plants. As an important part of fisheries, aquaculture provides humans with high-quality animal protein and raw materials for industrial production in a relatively economical way. When feeding different kinds of aquatic organisms, or feeding them in different breeding environments, or even feeding the same species at different growth stages, there are completely different feeding methods. Similarly, the contents of the feed are also different. For some aquatic products with high breeding density and whose feed can sink in the water, the aquatic products are usually allowed to obtain food by touching the feeder.

[0003] For example, Chinese invention patent No. 202010539369.5 provides a feeding device for aquaculture. This device includes a base fixed to the top of an aquaculture vessel. Two fixing rods are fixedly installed on the top of the base, and the same fixed base is fixedly installed on the top of the two fixing rods. Two vertical rods and a rotating motor are fixedly installed on the top of the fixed base, with the rotating motor located between the two vertical rods. This device eliminates the need for manual feeding and has a high degree of automation.

[0004] However, most existing contact feeders are difficult to clean up leftover feed during use. Since the feed contains a large amount of organic components, if a large amount of feed is deposited at the bottom of the pond, the organic components in the feed will cause eutrophication of the water body after long-term fermentation, which will change the water quality, cause the death of aquatic products, and cause economic losses to farmers. Therefore, farmers need to clean the bottom of the pond frequently, which increases the operating costs of farmers and reduces the practicality of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a feeding machine for aquaculture, which solves the problem that most existing contact feeding machines are difficult to clean up leftover feed during use, and that prolonged fermentation of the feed can lead to eutrophication of the water, causing economic losses to farmers, increasing their operating costs, and reducing the practicality of the equipment.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A feeding machine for aquaculture includes a base plate, a cleaning component, and a feeding component. The feeding component is connected to the base plate via a frame. The cleaning component includes a motor mounted on the base plate. A drum connected to the output shaft of the motor via a coupling is mounted on the output shaft. A pull rope is fixedly connected to the drum. A material conveying frame is mounted on the free end of the pull rope. A connecting frame is mounted on one side of the base plate. The material conveying frame is slidably connected within the connecting frame. A pair of connecting plates are mounted on the top of the connecting frame. Two guide strips are arranged opposite to each other on the inner sides of the connecting plates and the connecting frame. The material conveying frame is engaged between the two guide strips. A rotating block is rotatably connected between the two connecting plates. A rope-locking groove is provided on the rotating block. The pull rope is engaged within the rope-locking groove. A reset component is mounted on the rotating block.

[0008] Preferably, the reset assembly includes a reset plate disposed on the rotary block, the reset plate being aligned vertically with the material conveyor, a drive plate being disposed at one end of the rotary block, and a hollow cover being disposed on the outer side of any of the connecting plates, the drive plate being connected to the bottom wall of the inner wall of the cover by a first spring.

[0009] Preferably, a canopy is also provided on one side of the base plate, and a canopy is provided at the top of the canopy.

[0010] Preferably, the feeding assembly includes a material accumulation cylinder disposed inside the shed, a discharge box disposed at the bottom of the material accumulation cylinder, a pair of L-shaped blocks disposed opposite each other inside the discharge box, two baffles slidably engaged between the two L-shaped blocks, a guide block disposed on one side of the baffles, two connecting rods disposed outside the discharge box, a sliding plate slidably connected between the two connecting rods, a ramming plate disposed at the bottom of the sliding plate, the sliding plate being connected to the discharge box by a second spring, and a T-shaped block disposed on the side of the sliding plate where the second spring is disposed, the contact surface between the T-shaped block and the guide block being an inclined surface.

[0011] Preferably, dovetail blocks are provided on both sides of the T-shaped block, and dovetail grooves are opened on the side of the two guide blocks near the dovetail blocks, and the two dovetail blocks are slidably locked in the two dovetail grooves respectively.

[0012] Preferably, a fixing plate is provided at the bottom of the discharge box, and a material holding box is slidably attached to the bottom of the fixing plate. Multiple material placing plates are provided inside the material holding box. Multiple material conveying plates are provided on the side of the material conveying frame near the material placing plates. Each material conveying plate can be attached within the interval between two material placing plates. A hydraulic rod is provided at the bottom of the connecting frame, and the output rod end of the hydraulic rod is connected to the material holding box.

[0013] Preferably, a sealing assembly is provided at the top of the material collecting cylinder. The sealing assembly includes a top plate at the top of the material collecting cylinder, four fixed shafts on the top plate, a gear on each fixed shaft, a rotatably connected gear ring on the top plate, the gear ring meshing with each gear simultaneously, four fixed blocks on the top plate, each fixed block slidingly engaging a sealing plate through a limiting groove, a rack on the side of the sealing plate near the gear, each rack meshing with one gear, and a friction block on the outer side of the gear ring.

[0014] Preferably, the base plate is further provided with a material collection box that is slidably connected by a groove, the bottom wall of the material collection box is provided with a guide slope, the side of the material collection box away from the base plate is provided with a baffle, and the material collection box is located on the bottom side of the connecting plate.

[0015] The principle and beneficial effects of this technical solution:

[0016] (1) The cleaning component provided in this invention can clean and recycle the uneaten feed of aquatic products. Farmers can use the cleaning component regularly to clean the residual feed according to the habits of the aquatic products they raise. When using the cleaning component, the motor needs to be started. Since the pull rope is fixed on the drum connected by the coupling at the output shaft end of the motor, and the free end of the pull rope is provided with a feed rack, the rotation of the drum will wind the pull rope onto the drum and lift the feed rack at one end of the pull rope. Since the feed rack is locked between two guide strips set opposite to each other on the inner side of the connecting plate and the connecting frame, the feed rack will move along the guide strips. At the same time, since the feed plate set on one side of the feed rack is locked in the interval between the two feed plates, the feed plate will lift the remaining residual feed between the feed plates when it moves, thereby realizing the recycling of residual feed. To a certain extent, this reduces the frequency of cleaning the pond bottom for farmers, reduces the farming cost for farmers, and improves the practicality of the device.

[0017] (2) The feeding component in this invention enables aquatic products to actively obtain feed. When the aquatic products touch the impact plate, since the impact plate is connected to the sliding plate and the sliding plate is connected to the discharge box through the second spring, the impact plate will compress the second spring when it is touched by the aquatic products, and at the same time push the T-shaped block on one side of the sliding plate to move. Since the T-shaped block is in contact with the guide block and the contact surface is inclined, the T-shaped block will push away the guide blocks on both sides when it moves, thereby driving the baffle plate connected to the guide block to move to both sides, and finally causing the feed in the accumulation cylinder to fall into the water for the aquatic products to eat.

[0018] (3) The sealing component in this invention can seal the top of the feed collection cylinder to slow down the rate at which the feed accumulated by the farmer in the feed collection cylinder becomes damp. When the farmer needs to open the sealing component to add feed, he can rotate the gear ring by the friction block on one side of the gear ring. Since the gear ring meshes with each gear at the same time, and each gear has a rack meshing with it, the rotation of the gear ring will drive the rack to move. Since the rack is connected to the sealing plate, and the limiting groove opened on the sealing plate is connected to the top plate through the fixing block, the rotation of the gear ring will eventually drive the sealing plate to slide along the direction of the limiting groove until the top of the feed collection cylinder is completely opened. At this time, feed can be added into it. After adding, the friction block is reset, so that the top of the feed collection cylinder can be closed to protect the feed inside from moisture, thereby improving the use effect of the device.

[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0028] Example:

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present invention provides a feeding machine for aquaculture, including a base plate 19, a cleaning component, and a feeding component. The feeding component is connected to the base plate 19 via a frame 2. The cleaning component includes a motor 3 mounted on the base plate 19. A drum 7 connected to the output shaft of the motor 3 via a coupling is mounted on the output shaft. A pull rope 20 is fixedly connected to the drum 7. A material conveying frame 5 is mounted on the free end of the pull rope 20. A connecting frame 4 is mounted on one side of the base plate 19. The material conveying frame 5 is slidably connected within the connecting frame 4. A pair of connecting plates 16 are mounted on the top of the connecting frame 4. Two guide strips 15 are arranged opposite to each other on the inner sides of the connecting plates 16 and the connecting frame 4. The material conveying frame 5 is engaged between the two guide strips 15. A rotating block 11 is rotatably connected between the two connecting plates 16. A rope-locking groove 12 is provided on the rotating block 11. The pull rope 20 is engaged within the rope-locking groove 12. A reset component is mounted on the rotating block 11.

[0030] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the reset assembly includes a reset plate 13 mounted on a rotary block 11. The reset plate 13 is aligned vertically with the material conveyor 5. A drive plate 14 is mounted on one end of the rotary block 11. A hollow cover 17 is mounted on the outer side of any connecting plate 16. The drive plate 14 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the cover 17 by a first spring 31.

[0031] The reset component helps the rotating block 11 reset, allowing it to push the conveyor frame 5 in contact with it, thus resetting the conveyor frame 5. When the conveyor frame 5 moves along the guide bar 15 to the connecting plate 16 at the top of the connecting frame 4 under the traction of the pull rope 20, since the path of the guide bar 15 on the connecting plate 16 is circular, when the conveyor frame 5 moves beyond the highest point of this circle, it cannot reset solely by gravity. Because the rotating block 11 is equipped with a reset plate 13, and the reset plate 13 is vertically aligned with the conveyor frame 5, when the conveyor frame 5 moves to… After the connecting plate 16 is attached, one side of it will contact the reset plate 13, causing the reset plate 13 to move simultaneously during the movement of the conveying frame 5 until the conveying frame 5 throws the remaining feed into the collection box 8. At this time, the pull rope 20 is released. Since the drive plate 14 set at one end of the rotating block 11 will compress the first spring 31 between it and the cover 17 during the rotation of the conveying frame 5, when the pull rope 20 is released, the elastic force of the first spring 31 will drive the drive plate 14 and the rotating block 11 to reset, and at the same time drive the reset plate 13 and the conveying frame 5 in contact with the reset plate 13 to reset.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a canopy 2 is also provided on one side of the base plate 19, and a rain canopy 1 is provided at the top of the canopy 2. The rain canopy 1 can reduce the rate of erosion of the device by rainwater and extend the overall service life of the device.

[0033] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the feeding assembly includes a material collection cylinder 25 located inside the frame 2. A discharge box 41 is located at the bottom of the material collection cylinder 25. A pair of L-shaped blocks 42 are arranged opposite each other inside the discharge box 41. Two baffle plates 27 are slidably engaged between the two L-shaped blocks 42. A guide block 43 is located on one side of the baffle plate 27. Two connecting rods 26 are located on the outside of the discharge box 41. A sliding plate 28 is slidably connected between the two connecting rods 26. A bumper 30 is located at the bottom of the sliding plate 28. The sliding plate 28 is connected to the discharge box 41 by a second spring 29. A T-shaped block 45 is also located on the side of the sliding plate 28 where the second spring 29 is located. The contact surface between the T-shaped block 45 and the guide block 43 is an inclined surface.

[0034] The feeding assembly allows aquatic products to actively obtain feed. When the aquatic products touch the impact plate 30, since the impact plate 30 is connected to the sliding plate 28 and the sliding plate 28 is connected to the discharge box 41 through the second spring 29, the impact plate 30 will compress the second spring 29 when it is touched by the aquatic products. At the same time, it will push the T-shaped block 45 on one side of the sliding plate 28 to move. Since the T-shaped block 45 is in contact with the guide block 43 and the contact surface is inclined, the T-shaped block 45 will push away the guide blocks 43 on both sides when it moves, thereby driving the baffle plate 27 connected to the guide block 43 to move to both sides, and finally causing the feed in the collection cylinder 25 to fall into the water for the aquatic products to eat.

[0035] like Figure 7As shown, dovetail blocks 46 are provided on both sides of the T-shaped block 45. Dovetail grooves 44 are provided on the side of the two guide blocks 43 near the dovetail blocks 46. The two dovetail blocks 46 are slidably locked in the two dovetail grooves 44 respectively. The cooperation between the dovetail grooves 44 and the dovetail blocks 46 allows the two guide blocks 43 to move relative to each other during the reset process of the T-shaped block 45 until the two guide blocks 43 contact each other.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a fixing plate 24 is provided at the bottom of the discharge box 41, and a material holding box 22 is slidably attached to the bottom of the fixing plate 24. Multiple material placing plates 21 are provided inside the material holding box 22. Multiple material conveying plates 6 are provided on the side of the material conveying frame 5 near the material placing plates 21. Each material conveying plate 6 can be attached to the space between two material placing plates 21. A hydraulic rod 23 is provided at the bottom of the connecting frame 4, and the output rod end of the hydraulic rod 23 is connected to the material holding box 22.

[0037] When the farmer needs to clean the residual feed on the feed box 22, he / she must first drive the hydraulic rod 23 to shorten. Since the output rod end of the hydraulic rod 23 at the bottom of the connecting frame 4 is connected to the feed box 22, the hydraulic rod 23 will pull the feed box 22 closer to the connecting block 4 until each feed plate 6 in the feed rack 5 is locked in the interval between the two feed plates 21. At this time, the cleaning component can be activated to clean the residual feed on the feed box 22.

[0038] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a sealing assembly is provided at the top of the material collection cylinder 25. The sealing assembly includes a top plate 32 at the top of the material collection cylinder 25. Four fixed shafts 36 are provided on the top plate 32. A gear 33 is sleeved on each fixed shaft 36. A rotatably connected gear ring 34 is also provided on the top plate 32. The gear ring 34 meshes with each gear 33 simultaneously. Four fixed blocks 37 are also provided on the top plate 32. A sealing plate 38 is slidably engaged with each fixed block 37 through a limiting groove 40. A rack 39 is provided on the side of the sealing plate 38 near the gear 33. Each rack 39 meshes with one gear 33. A friction block 35 is provided on the outside of the gear ring 34.

[0039] The sealing assembly seals the top of the feed collection cylinder 25 to slow down the rate at which the feed accumulated in the cylinder becomes damp. When the farmer needs to open the sealing assembly to add feed, the farmer can rotate the gear ring 34 by rotating the friction block 35 on one side of the gear ring 34. Since the gear ring 34 meshes with each gear 33 simultaneously, and each gear 33 has a rack 39 meshing with it, the rotation of the gear ring 34 will drive the rack 39 to move. Since the rack 39 is connected to the sealing plate 38, and the limiting groove 40 on the sealing plate 38 is connected to the top plate 32 through the fixing block 37, the rotation of the gear ring 34 will eventually drive the sealing plate 38 to slide along the direction of the limiting groove 40 until the top of the feed collection cylinder 25 is fully opened. At this time, feed can be added into it. After adding feed, the friction block 35 is reset, which will close the top of the feed collection cylinder 25 to protect the feed from moisture, thereby improving the effectiveness of the device.

[0040] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a collection box 8 is also provided on the base plate 19 via a sliding groove 18. A guide slope 9 is provided on the bottom wall of the collection box 8. Since the width of the collection box 8 is greater than that of the conveying frame 5, the guide slope 9 can help the residual feed entering the collection box 8 to be distributed more evenly inside the collection box 8. A baffle 10 is provided on the side of the collection box 8 away from the base plate 19. The baffle 10 can prevent the conveying frame 5 from throwing the residual feed outside the device. The collection box 8 is located on one side of the bottom of the connecting plate 16.

[0041] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0042] This device can clean and recycle uneaten feed from aquatic products. Farmers can use the cleaning component periodically to remove leftover feed according to the habits of their aquatic products. When using the cleaning component, motor 3 needs to be started. Since a pull rope 20 is fixed to a drum 7 connected to the output shaft of motor 3 via a coupling, and a feed conveyor 5 is located at the free end of the pull rope 20, rotating the drum 7 will wind the pull rope 20 onto the drum 7 and simultaneously lift the feed conveyor 5 at one end of the pull rope 20. Because the feed conveyor 5 is positioned between two guide bars 15 arranged opposite each other on the inner side of the connecting plate 16 and the connecting frame 4, the feed conveyor 5 will move along the guide bars 15. Simultaneously, because a feed plate 6 on one side of the feed conveyor 5 is positioned within the interval between two feed plates 21, the movement of the feed plate 6 will lift the remaining leftover feed between the feed plates 21, thus achieving the recycling of leftover feed. This reduces the frequency of pond bottom cleaning for farmers, lowers farming costs, and improves the practicality of the device.

It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solutions of the present invention, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
