[0071] In the scaling step of step (2) above, an automatic adjustment algorithm for the angle of the high-pressure water scaling nozzle is used, which will be described in detail below.

[0072] 1. Optimal scaling angle

[0073] According to the experiment, the optimal scaling angle of the fish body is 20°, and at this spray angle, the optimal scaling rate can be achieved with lower fish body damage.

[0074] 2. Fish body lying height

[0075] The length and width of fish bodies of different types and weights m can be represented by the formula f(m). For tilapia, the length L and width B can be represented by the following formula:

[0076] L = 65.659m 0.243 ( 1)

[0077] B = 5.725m 0.327 (2)

[0078] Define z as the height of the fish body lying on the plane, 1 as any point on the length of the fish body, and b as any point on the width of the fish body. The lying height h of fish bodies of different types and weights m can be represented by the formula f(1, b). Taking tilapia as an example, the lying height h can be represented by the following formula (3):

[0079]

[0080] 3. Real-time position point calculation of high-pressure water scaling nozzle

[0081] Define the eccentricity of the eccentric disc as d p, the distance between the center of the eccentric disc and the fixed frame of the double-rod swing frame is O1D with a length of d1, and the length of the eccentric transmission rod is d c , the length of the double-rod swing frame O2O3 is d2, and the length of the interval G1G2 between the two swing rods is d g .

[0082] A two-dimensional coordinate system O3xy is constructed with the projection point O of the left swing limit position C of the double-rod swing frame on the frame as the origin, as shown in Figure 11 . The double-rod swing frame swings left and right through the eccentric transmission rod, and P1B1 、 P2A1 are the most extreme swing positions of the eccentric transmission rod, so A1B1 is the swing range of the double-rod swing frame, and the straight-line distance of A1B1 is 2d p . Then the straight-line distance of OB1 is According to the similarity of triangles, the straight-line distance d AC is:

[0083]

[0084] Since the high-pressure water descaling nozzle is installed on the double-rod swing frame and swings left and right with it, its swing trajectory A-O2-C is as shown in Figure 11 , and the spraying direction is always perpendicular to the y-axis, so its swing trajectory can be expressed as:

[0085]

[0086] The eccentric disc rotates clockwise, and the rotation speed of the left and right push-pull motors is w1, that is, the rotation speed of the eccentric disc is w1, so the linear speed v p of one end of the eccentric transmission rod on the eccentric disc is w1d p , and the time t s it takes for the high-pressure water descaling nozzle to swing from C to A can be calculated as:

[0087]

[0088] Given that the initial position of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle is at y = 0, and the high-pressure water descaling nozzle swings from C to A for one cycle and from A back to C for another cycle, the real-time position point (x s , y s ) of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle after time t can be calculated as:

[0089]

[0090] where, is rounded down.

[0091] According to formula (3),

[0092] 4) Real-time position point calculation of fish body under high-pressure water jet

[0093] On the basis of two-dimensional coordinate system O3xy, a reference axis z in height direction is added, i.e. three-dimensional coordinate system O3xyz, as shown in Figures 12-14 .

[0094] Fish enters the clamping conveyor from the feeding port, and the back of the fish is close to the baffle of the lower half of the clamping conveyor. The conveying speed of the clamping conveyor is v c , the distance WO3 between the feeding port and the plane of the double-rod swing frame is d w . The high-pressure water descaling nozzle can be raised and lowered, and its initial state is at the lowermost end, at which time the distance O2G between the nozzle and the lower half of the clamping conveyor is d sz0 , and the initial angle of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle with the x-axis is 20°.

[0095] ① Real-time x y coordinate calculation of fish body under high-pressure water jet

[0096] From the xz plane:

[0097] a、 Figure 15 As shown in the figure, when the fish body starts to be sprayed by high-pressure water, the initial position of the fish head on the x-axis is (at this time, the initial position of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle is y = 0) :

[0098]

[0099] Where: h0 is the height of the head of the fish body.

[0100] b、 Figure 16 As shown in the figure, when the fish body ends to be sprayed by high-pressure water, the end position of the fish head on the x-axis is:

[0101] x t = x0 + L

[0102] Where: L is the length of the fish body.

[0103] c、From the above analysis, the time range of the fish body under high-pressure water jet is The real-time x coordinate of the fish body under high-pressure water jet in the entire stage is:

[0104]

[0105] ② Real-time y

[0106] The high-pressure water descaling nozzle swings left and right with the double-rod swing frame. When it is at the initial position C, the high-pressure water is just sprayed at the baffle of the lower half of the clamping conveyor belt, that is, at b = 0 on the fish body width b axis. According to formula (7), the real-time position of the high-pressure water nozzle on the y axis can be calculated to obtain the real-time y coordinate of the fish body sprayed by the high-pressure water:

[0107]

[0108] wherein, is rounded down.

[0109] ③The real-time z y coordinate of the fish body sprayed by the high-pressure water

[0110] The real-time z y coordinate of the fish body sprayed by the high-pressure water is the real-time lying height h y of the sprayed point, that is, z y = h y . According to the real-time position (x y , y y ) of the fish body sprayed by the high-pressure water, the coordinates of the fish body length l and width b on the b axis can be obtained, l = x y -x0 and b = y y , and h y can be calculated according to formula (3).

[0111] 5) Automatic adjustment model of the spraying angle of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle

[0112] Since the high-pressure water descaling nozzle of the device can only change the angle with the clamping conveyor belt, in order to achieve the optimal descaling effect, the system is automatically controlled to always keep the angle between the x axis of the xz plane and the fish body at 20°. The height d s of the nozzle and the up-down rotation angle θ need to be adjusted to achieve the target.

[0113] The real-time position point coordinates (x y , y y , z y ) of the fish body sprayed by the high-pressure water are obtained according to the calculation in section 4, and the real-time position point coordinates (x s , y s ) of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle are obtained according to the calculation in section 3. The real-time position point coordinates of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle on the z axis are set as d sz . The adjustment process of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle is shown in Figure 17 .

[0114] ① Adjustment of the height d sz of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle

[0115] The initial height of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle is dsz0 , which changes synchronously with the height of the fish lying flat, so the real-time height of the high-pressure water descaling nozzle is d sz for:

[0116] d sz =d sz0 -h y

[0117] ②Adjust the angle θ between the high-pressure water descaling nozzle and the clamping conveyor belt

[0118] The initial angle θ0 between the high-pressure water descaling nozzle and the clamping conveyor belt is 20°.

[0119] By taking the derivative of the fish body's lying height h(l, b) function, we can get the slope of the fish body's arc surface with respect to the x-axis.

[0120] Take tilapia as an example:

[0121]

[0122] Then, according to the real-time position of the fish body under high-pressure water spray (x y ,y y ), we can get the l and b values ​​of the fish body at the current moment when it is sprayed with high-pressure water. Therefore, we can substitute the angle λ between any point on the curved surface of the fish body and the x-axis:

[0123] λ=arctan[h'(l)]

[0124] In order to maintain the angle between the high-pressure water descaling nozzle and the fish body at 20° on the xz-axis plane, the real-time angle θ between the high-pressure water descaling nozzle and the clamping conveyor belt is:

[0125] θ=θ0-λ

[0126] The above embodiments are preferred implementation modes of the present invention, but the implementation modes of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments. Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not deviate from the spirit and principles of the present invention should be considered as equivalent replacement methods and are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
