Abstract

This invention provides an automatic feeder for sea cucumber seedlings, comprising an integrated feed mixing and dispensing device. The integrated feed mixing and dispensing device includes a mixing tank, a mixing tank cover, an electric cylinder, and a feed mixing and dispensing mechanism. The mixing tank is a cylindrical structure with its axis perpendicular to the horizontal plane and closed at the top and open at the bottom. A feed inlet is located at the top of the mixing tank. The mixing tank cover is located directly below the mixing tank and is detachably fitted onto the opening at the bottom of the mixing tank. One end of the electric cylinder is mounted on the mixing tank body, and the other end is mounted on the mixing tank cover. The feed mixing and dispensing mechanism includes a pulsator motor and a pulsator. The pulsator motor is mounted on the mixing tank cover, and its output shaft extends upward along the axis of the mixing tank body. The pulsator is coaxially mounted on the output shaft of the pulsator motor and located directly above the mixing tank cover. Compared to existing technologies, this invention is smaller, lighter, and more flexible.
