[0057] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments so that those skilled in the art can implement the invention with reference to the description.

[0058] It should be understood that the terms such as “having”, “including” and “comprising” used herein do not exclude the existence or addition of one or more other elements or combinations thereof.

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a shellfish culture device for automatically feeding bait, comprising: a feeding module 2 arranged on a floating plate 1, for feeding bait regularly; a culture body 3 arranged below the floating plate 1, for culture shellfish; a feeding net arranged outside the culture body 3;

[0060] During feeding time, the feeding net is in a raised state, and the inner area of ​​the feeding net forms a bait delivery area, and the feeding module 2 performs the bait feeding work;

[0061] During non-feeding time, the feeding net is in a descending state and the feeding module 2 does not work.

[0062] In the above technical solution, the feeding module 2 can float on the sea surface through the floating plate 1, and the feeding module 2 can feed bait to the aquaculture body 3 at a set time; during the non-feeding time, the feeding net is in a descending state, that is, the feeding net is located at the bottom of the aquaculture body 3, and the shellfish cultured in the aquaculture body 3 can eat the algae in the aquaculture sea area; during the feeding time, the feeding net is in a raised state, and the aquaculture body 3 is located in the bait delivery area as a whole, and the feeding net is higher than the top of the aquaculture body 3 after being raised, and the feeding module 2 can deliver bait into the bait delivery area;

[0063] Through the above scheme, the feeding module 2 can regularly feed the shellfish with bait to prevent the shellfish from being hungry due to the reduction of algae in the aquaculture area; and when feeding, the feeding net can prevent the bait from floating away with the water flow when the shellfish does not have time to eat, thereby reducing the waste of bait and ensuring that the shellfish eat enough.

[0064] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the feeding net includes: a net frame 4 that can be extended and retracted up and down, and its bottom is connected to the bottom of the breeding body 3; a net body 5, which is surrounded on the outside of the net frame 4; and a lifting component 6, which is connected to the top of the net frame 4.

[0065] The lifting assembly 6 serves as a driving part for driving the feeding net to rise and fall as a whole, and can drive the top of the net frame 4 to rise and fall, while the net body 5 is vertically stretched or contracted to achieve the raising and lowering of the feeding net.

[0066] Furthermore, the mesh size of the net body 5 is smaller than the size of a single bait.

[0067] The net body 5 can be made of a flexible net, the mesh size of which is smaller than the size of a single bait, so as to prevent the bait from floating away with the water flow during feeding, thereby reducing the waste of bait.

[0068] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 Furthermore, the grid 4 includes: a bottom frame 410 connected to the bottom of the breeding body 3, a top frame 420 connected to the lifting assembly 6, and a support frame 430 arranged between the bottom frame 410 and the top frame 420, and the bottom frame 410 and the support frame 430, as well as the top frame 420 and the support frame 430 are connected by ropes 440.

[0069] The bottom frame 410 is connected to the bottom of the breeding body 3, and a mesh plate can also be set on the bottom surface of the bottom frame 410. The outer diameter of the bottom frame 410 is larger than the outer diameter of the lifting assembly 6. When the lifting assembly 6 descends, it can fall onto the bottom frame 410; the bottom frame 410, the top frame 420 and the support frame 430 are all made of rigid materials and are not easily deformed. They can support the net body 5 and improve the stability of the net body 5 in seawater; the rope 440 is a flexible rope body, and the rope 440 and the net body 5 can both be adaptively deformed as the feeding net is raised and lowered.

[0070] like Figure 3 As shown, further, the lifting assembly 6 includes: a spiral tube 610 connected to the top of the frame 4, the upper end of the spiral tube 610 is an inlet 620 for introducing water or gas, and the lower end is an outlet 630 for discharging water or gas; the spiral tube 610 is provided with a first one-way valve 640 near its inlet 620, and a second one-way valve 650 near its outlet 630.

[0071] The inner diameter of the spiral tube 610 is larger than the outer diameter of the floating plate 1, which can ensure that when the spiral tube 610 is raised, the floating plate 1 can be located inside the spiral tube 610, making it easy to put bait into the bait putting area.

[0072] like Figure 2As shown, when the feeding net needs to be raised, gas is introduced into the spiral tube 610 through the inlet 620, and the gas enters the spiral tube 610 after passing through the first one-way valve 640. Then, the water in the spiral tube 610 is discharged from the second one-way valve 650 under the pressure of the introduced gas. As the gas in the spiral tube 610 slowly increases, the water decreases accordingly, and the weight of the spiral tube 610 decreases and rises upward. When the gas filling amount in the spiral tube 610 reaches the first set amount, the feeding net can remain in the raised state to form a bait delivery area.

[0073] like Figure 4 As shown, when the feeding net needs to be lowered, water is introduced into the spiral tube 610 through the inlet 620, and the water enters the spiral tube 610 after passing through the first one-way valve 640. Then, the gas in the spiral tube 610 is discharged from the second one-way valve 650 under the pressure of the introduced water. As the water in the spiral tube 610 slowly increases, the gas decreases accordingly, and the weight of the spiral tube 610 increases and moves downward. When the amount of water filled in the spiral tube 610 reaches the second set amount, the top of the feeding net can be lowered to the position of the base frame 410, and the feeding net remains in a lowered state.

[0074] like Figure 5 As shown, further, the inlet 620 is connected to the water pump 8 and the air pump 9 respectively through the control valve 7;

[0075] When the feeding net needs to be raised, the air pump 9 is connected to the inlet 620 through the control valve 7 to fill the spiral tube 610 with gas; when the feeding net needs to be lowered, the water pump 8 is connected to the inlet 620 through the control valve 7 to fill the spiral tube 610 with water.

[0076] The lifting assembly 6 can be used to lift and lower the entire feeding net, and when filling water or gas, it can be filled slowly, so that the spiral tube 610 is stressed more evenly, ensuring the stability of the feeding net when it is lifted and lowered.

[0077] In one embodiment, it further includes: an algae detection module 10 for detecting the algae concentration in the seawater, and the feeding module 2 sets the feeding amount of bait according to the detected algae concentration and shellfish growth value.

[0078] Among them, the shellfish growth value can represent the growth data of the shellfish feeding amount, such as the size of the shellfish or the weight of the shellfish.

[0079] The specific detection method of algae concentration can be any detection method in the prior art to determine the amount of algae in the aquaculture area.

[0080] The algae detection module 10 can be set on the floating plate 1 or at a certain place in the aquaculture sea area. The algae detection module 10 is communicatively connected with the feeding module 2; the algae detection module 10 can detect the algae concentration in the aquaculture sea area. The higher the algae concentration, the more algae there are, and the amount of bait fed to the shellfish can be reduced, thereby preventing bait waste; the lower the algae concentration, the less algae there are, and the amount of bait fed to the shellfish needs to be increased to ensure the shellfish's food intake.

[0081] like Figure 6 As shown, a shellfish cultivation method for automatically feeding bait, using the shellfish cultivation device for automatically feeding bait of the present invention, comprises:

[0082] S1. Obtain the current algae concentration in the aquaculture area and the current growth value of shellfish;

[0083] S2. judging whether the current algae concentration meets the current feeding amount of the shellfish according to the current growth value of the shellfish;

[0084] S3. If the conditions are met, there is no need to feed the shellfish; if the conditions are not met, there is a need to feed the shellfish.

[0085] The current algae concentration in the aquaculture sea area is obtained by the algae detection module 10, and the current growth value of the shellfish can be obtained by obtaining the size of the shellfish by image detection, or by obtaining the weight of the shellfish by weighing;

[0086] The feeding amount of the shellfish corresponding to the size or weight of the shellfish and the reference algae concentration corresponding to the feeding amount of the shellfish (the algae concentration that satisfies the feeding amount of the shellfish) can be determined based on historical data;

[0087] After obtaining the current algae concentration, compare the current algae concentration with the reference algae concentration. If the current algae concentration is greater than or equal to the reference algae concentration, the current algae concentration meets the current food intake of the shellfish and there is no need to feed the shellfish. If the current algae concentration is less than the reference algae concentration, the current algae concentration does not meet the current food intake of the shellfish and it is necessary to feed the shellfish to ensure the food intake of the shellfish.

[0088] Through the above method, it is possible to judge whether it is necessary to feed shellfish based on the original algae concentration in the aquaculture area, so as to reduce the waste of bait, ensure the food intake of shellfish, and prevent shellfish from becoming hungry and affecting their growth.

[0089] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, when the current algae concentration does not meet the current feeding amount of shellfish, it is necessary to feed the shellfish with bait, including:

[0090] S31, determining the current feed feeding amount according to the current algae concentration and the current growth value of the shellfish;

[0091] S32, in the preparation time before the feeding module 2 releases the bait, the feeding net is controlled to be in a raised state so that the inner area of ​​the feeding net forms a bait release area;

[0092] S33, at the feeding time, the feeding module 2 puts bait into the bait delivery area according to the determined current bait feeding amount;

[0093] S34. When the feeding time is over, the feeding net is controlled to be in a descending state.

[0094] The current feed amount determined takes into full account the current algae concentration in the aquaculture area and the current growth value of shellfish, which can improve the accuracy of the current feed amount, reduce feed waste, and ensure the food intake of shellfish;

[0095] Controlling the feeding net to be raised during the preparation time can ensure that the bait is in the bait delivery area during feeding, preventing it from drifting away with the water flow, thus preventing bait waste and ensuring effective feeding of shellfish;

[0096] After the feeding time is over, the feeding net is in a lowered state, and the aquaculture body 3 can fully exchange with the seawater.

[0097] Through the above method, the amount of bait fed can be adaptively adjusted to ensure the accuracy of the amount of bait fed, prevent waste of bait, and ensure effective feeding of shellfish.

[0098] like Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the current feed amount is determined based on the current algae concentration and the current growth value of the shellfish, including:

[0099] S311. Determine the influence coefficient of the algae concentration on the current feed amount based on the current algae concentration and the reference algae concentration that satisfies the current shellfish feeding amount:

[0100]

[0101] Among them, μ is the influence coefficient of algae concentration on the current bait feeding amount, C is the current algae concentration, and C0 is the reference algae concentration that meets the current shellfish feeding amount;

[0102] S312, predicting the amount of feed currently required for the shellfish based on the current growth value of the shellfish, and obtaining the predicted feeding amount;

[0103] S313, according to the influence coefficient of the predicted feeding amount and the algae concentration on the current feed feeding amount, the current feed feeding amount is obtained:

[0104] W=W y *μ

[0105] Among them, W is the current feed feeding amount, Wy For predicting the feeding amount.

[0106] In the above method, the current bait feeding amount is not directly predicted. This is because the change in the concentration of algae in seawater is irregular, and it is impossible to accurately predict the concentration of algae. Therefore, when predicting the current bait feeding amount required by shellfish, the algae concentration is not considered. Instead, the influence coefficient of the algae concentration on the current bait feeding amount is obtained based on the current algae concentration, and then the current bait feeding amount is obtained based on the influence coefficient and the predicted feeding amount, improving the accuracy of obtaining the bait feeding amount.

[0107] Such as Fig. 9 As shown, further, based on the current growth value of the shellfish, the current bait feeding amount required by the shellfish is predicted to obtain the predicted feeding amount, including:

[0108] S3121. Determine the standard growth range of the shellfish corresponding to the current breeding time according to the current breeding time of the shellfish;

[0109] Among them, the standard growth range of the shellfish is [a, b], where a is the minimum growth value of the standard growth range and b is the maximum growth value of the standard growth range; for example, when the growth value of the shellfish is the shellfish size, the standard growth range of the shellfish is the standard size range of the shellfish corresponding to the current breeding time;

[0110] S3122. Determine the theoretical feeding amount of the shellfish according to the standard growth range of the shellfish;

[0111] The theoretical feeding amount of the shellfish can be obtained based on empirical data or historical data;

[0112] S3123. Determine the growth deviation coefficient β of the shellfish according to the current growth value of the shellfish and the standard growth range of the shellfish:

[0113] If the current growth value M is within the standard growth range [a, b] of the shellfish, that is, a ≤ M ≤ b, then the growth deviation coefficient is:

[0114] β = 0;

[0115] If the current growth value M is not within the standard growth range [a, b] of the shellfish and M > b, then the growth deviation coefficient is:

[0116]

[0117] If the current growth value M is not within the standard growth range [a, b] of the shellfish and M < a, then the growth deviation coefficient is:

[0118]

[0119] S3124. Obtain the predicted feeding amount according to the theoretical feeding amount of the shellfish and the growth deviation coefficient of the shellfish:

[0120] W y =W0(1-β)

[0121] Among them, W0 is the theoretical feeding amount.

[0122] The cultivation cycle of shellfish (from seedling to maturity) can be divided into multiple cultivation times (time periods); the current growth value of shellfish can be obtained: the growth values ​​(sizes) of multiple shellfish in the cultivation body 3 can be obtained first, and the average value obtained is used as the current growth value (single shellfish); or, the total weight of all shellfish in the cultivation body 3 is obtained, and then divided by the number of all shellfish, and the average weight of a single shellfish is obtained as the current growth value; the theoretical feeding amount of shellfish is the sum of the feeding amounts of all shellfish in the cultivation body 3, that is, the feeding amount of a single shellfish can be obtained according to the standard growth range of shellfish, and then the feeding amount of a single shellfish is multiplied by the number of all shellfish in the cultivation body 3 to obtain the theoretical feeding amount of shellfish;

[0123] Since shellfish are affected by the environment or feeding during their growth process, their growth values ​​will deviate. Deviations in growth values ​​will affect the amount of food consumed by shellfish. Therefore, it is necessary to compare the current growth value with the standard growth range of shellfish to determine the growth deviation coefficient. The predicted feeding amount can be obtained based on the growth deviation coefficient and the theoretical feeding amount to improve the accuracy of the predicted feeding amount.

[0124] Through the above method, the relationship between the current growth value of shellfish and the standard growth range of shellfish corresponding to the current breeding time is fully considered to predict the feeding amount of shellfish and improve the accuracy of the predicted feeding amount.
