[0044] See also Figure 1-Figure 14 .

[0045] Some embodiments of the present application disclose a small vehicle for automated farming, comprising a vehicle body, a storage bin 2, a feeding tube 3 and an image collector 4.

[0046] The vehicle body includes a frame 1 and wheels. The frame 1 is used to install a storage bin 2, a feeding tube 3 and an image collector 4. The wheels enable the vehicle body to move between two adjacent rows of breeding boxes 15, and the vehicle body can stop at the position of any row of breeding boxes 15 between two adjacent rows of breeding boxes 15.

[0047] The storage bin 2 is used to store feed, and the feeding tube 3 is connected to the storage bin 2. A valve is provided on the feeding tube 3. When the valve is opened, the feed in the storage bin 2 is fed to the breeding box 15 through the feeding tube 3. When the valve is closed, the feed in the storage bin 2 stops being fed to the breeding box 15 through the feeding tube 3.

[0048] The image collector 4 is used to collect feed images of the feed in the breeding box 15 and aquatic images of the aquatic products in the breeding box 15, and upload the collected feed images and aquatic images to the data end, which processes the feed images and aquatic images.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, each row of breeding boxes 15 has multiple layers and columns of breeding boxes 15 , each layer of breeding boxes 15 is arranged in the horizontal direction, and each column of breeding boxes 15 is arranged in the vertical direction. Each breeding box 15 has a feed observation and feeding port 151 and an aquatic product observation port 152 .

[0050] When feeding, the vehicle body moves to the position of the feed observation feeding port 151 of the breeding box 15, and the image collector 4 collects the feed image of the feed in the breeding box 15 and uploads it to the data end. If the data end determines that the feed needs to be fed, the valve is opened, and the feed in the storage bin 2 is fed to the feed observation feeding port 151 through the feeding tube 3. If the data end determines that the feed does not need to be fed, the valve is not opened, and the feed in the storage bin 2 is not fed to the feed observation feeding port 151 through the feeding tube 3;

[0051] During observation, the vehicle body moves to the position of the aquatic observation port 152 of the breeding box 15, and the image collector 4 collects the aquatic images of the aquatic products in the breeding box 15 and uploads them to the data terminal. The survival status of the aquatic products is obtained based on the aquatic images, and the images that may be diseased or dead aquatic products are screened out. Then, the images are manually observed to determine whether the aquatic products need to be processed.

[0052] Since the image collector 4 needs to collect the feed image of the feed observation feeding port 151, the feeding tube 3 needs to feed the feed to the feed observation feeding port 151, optionally, the image collector 4 is flush with the lower end of the feeding tube 3, and the image collector 4 and the feeding tube 3 do not need to adjust their positions during operation.

[0053] Whether the feeding tube 3 feeds the feed to the feed observation feeding port 151 is based on the result of the feed image collected by the image collector 4. Optionally, the image collector 4 is located in front of the feeding tube 3, so that the feeding tube 3 will pass through the feed observation feeding port 151 only after the image collector 4 has collected the feed image of the feed observation feeding port 151.

[0054] Optionally, the image collector 4 is an infrared camera, which can not only meet the shooting needs during the day, but also meet the shooting needs at night when the light is insufficient, thereby realizing the observation of aquatic products during the day and at night.

[0055] In the process of automatic feeding and automatic observation of the aquatic products in the breeding box 15 by the trolley for automated breeding, the trolley for automated breeding needs to stop three times at the position of a breeding box 15. The first time is when the image collector 4 moves to the position of the feed observation feeding port 151, the second time is when the feeding tube 3 moves to the position of the feed observation feeding port 151, and the third time is when the image collector 4 moves to the position of the aquatic product observation port 152.

[0056] In order to enable the trolley used for automated breeding to stop accurately at the position where it needs to stop, a position sensor can be set on the breeding box 15 and the vehicle body. The position sensor is communicatively connected to the data end so that after the position sensor sends a signal to the data end, the data end controls the vehicle body to stop running.

[0057] At the same time, you can also upload the shooting data to the computer and store the pictures online, so that the breeder can observe the remaining feed and the survival status of aquatic products in various time periods (such as at night) at any time, facilitate systematic management, reduce human errors, etc. It is suitable for large-scale breeding production and unified systematic management.

[0058] The electronically controlled trolley used in automated breeding has automated functions, such as observing the remaining amount of feed at each node to achieve automatic feeding. It can also observe the growth of aquatic products at each node to determine which are dead crabs and which are mature crabs, and mark them for processing.

[0059] The trolley for automated breeding disclosed in the present solution can realize automatic feeding and automatic observation, replacing manual feeding and manual observation, which not only improves the efficiency of aquatic feeding and observation, but also reduces the manual labor intensity of aquatic feeding and observation.

[0060] The trolley for automated breeding disclosed in the present solution cooperates with the breeding box 15 to realize automated and systematic breeding of aquatic products, overcoming the problems of the existing artificial breeding of aquatic products being complicated, ineffective and prone to errors.

[0061] The number of the feeding tubes 3 and the image collectors 4 provided on the frame 1 of the trolley for automated breeding disclosed in the present solution may be one or more.

[0062] In an embodiment where the number of the feeding tube 3 and the image collector 4 provided on the frame 1 of the trolley for automated breeding is one, the position of the feeding tube 3 and the image collector 4 can be adjusted by a height adjustment component, so that the feeding tube 3 and the image collector 4 can automatically feed and automatically observe the breeding boxes 15 on different layers in the same column.

[0063] In an embodiment in which a plurality of feeding tubes 3 and image collectors 4 are arranged on the frame 1 of a trolley for automated breeding, the number of feeding tubes 3 and image collectors 4 is equal to the number of layers of breeding boxes 15, that is, each layer of breeding boxes 15 corresponds to a feeding tube 3 and an image collector 4, thereby realizing simultaneous feeding and observation of the survival status of a row of multi-layer breeding boxes 15, greatly improving the efficiency of feeding and observation.

[0064] In some embodiments, the frame 1 is a cubic frame, the interior of the cubic frame is a hollow structure, and the storage bin 2 is installed in the frame 1 to occupy the space in the frame 1, so as to reduce the overall volume of the vehicle used for automated breeding to a certain extent.

[0065] The cubic frame has four side walls. The side walls of the cubic frame close to the breeding boxes 15 are parallel to the plane where each row of breeding boxes 15 is located. A rectangular frame 14 is arranged on the two side walls of the cubic frame close to the breeding boxes 15. A plurality of cross bars 13 are arranged on the rectangular frame 14. A feeding tube 3 and an image collector 4 are arranged on the cross bars 13.

[0066] In this solution, multiple groups of feeding tubes 3 and image collectors 4 corresponding to the positions of the multi-layer breeding boxes are integrated on the rectangular frame 14. The feeding tubes 3 and the image collectors 4 form a modular structure with the rectangular frame 14, which reduces the difficulty of installing the feeding tubes 3 and the image collectors 4 with the frame 1.

[0067] This solution provides a feeding tube 3 and an image collector 4 on both sides of the cubic frame, so that the trolley for automated breeding can automatically feed and observe the aquatic products in two rows of breeding boxes 15 when it moves between two adjacent rows of breeding boxes 15.

[0068] Optionally, the cubic frame is formed by welding or bolting a stainless steel square tube. The storage bin 2 is installed at the bottom of the cubic frame. The bottom of the cubic frame needs to bear a large weight. In this solution, a support rod is provided at the bottom of the cubic frame, and a support plate is provided on the support rod. The storage bin 2 and the feed lifting motor 7 are installed on the support plate.

[0069] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the feeding tube 3 is arranged obliquely relative to the horizontal direction, and the inclination direction of the feeding tube 3 is from the cross bar 13 to the inside of the cubic frame. The feed inlet of the feeding tube 3 is located inside the cubic frame, and the outlet of the feeding tube 3 is located outside the cubic frame. The feeding tube 3 is arranged obliquely, which helps the feed to be fed into the feed observation feeding port 151 under the action of gravity.

[0070] The trolley for automated breeding disclosed in the present scheme also includes a diversion bin 5, which has a diversion hole 51 at the bottom. The feed entering the diversion bin 5 is divided into multiple streams after passing through the diversion hole 51. The diversion hole 51 is connected to the feeding tube 3, and the diversion bin 5 supplies feed to multiple feeding tubes 3 at the same time.

[0071] like Figure 2 As shown, the diversion bin 5 is located at the upper end of the frame 1, and the storage bin 2 is located at the lower end of the frame 1. The diversion bin 5 and the storage bin 2 are arranged in the vertical direction. The storage bin 2 is connected to the diversion bin 5 through a feed pipe 6. A feed lifting motor 7 is provided on the feed pipe 6, and the feed lifting motor 7 is connected to the data end for communication.

[0072] When the data end determines that feed needs to be fed, the data end sends a start signal to the feed lifting motor 7, the feed lifting motor 7 starts, and at the same time the valve of the feeding tube 3 opens, and the feed in the storage bin 2 is supplied to the diversion bin 5 through the feed lifting motor 7 and the feed delivery pipe 6, and then supplied to the feeding tube 3 through the diversion bin 5 to feed the multi-layer breeding box 15.

[0073] The breeding boxes 15 are stacked in the vertical direction, and the multi-layer feeding tubes 3 on the frame 1 correspond one by one to the vertically stacked breeding boxes 15. Figure 3 As shown, the multi-layer feeding tube 3 is arranged downward from the middle and upper part of the frame 1 in the vertical direction. In this solution, the diversion bin 5 is arranged above the storage bin 2. The height of the diversion bin 5 is higher than the total height of each row of breeding boxes 15. The feed in the diversion bin 5 can enter the feeding tube 3 under the action of gravity, that is, the feed in the diversion bin 5 enters the feeding tube 3 without the need for separate power.

[0074] In this solution, the storage bin 2 is set at the bottom of the frame 1. The feed is lifted upward from the storage bin 2 and falls into the diversion bin 5. The feed enters the diversion bin 5 at a certain speed and falls into the diversion bin 5 under the action of gravity. After the feed collides with the bottom of the diversion bin, it is broken up, which helps the feed to be discharged through the diversion hole 51 of the diversion bin 5.

[0075] like Figure 8 As shown, in an embodiment in which the diversion bin 5 has 32 diversion holes 51 , one side of the frame 1 has 16 feeding tubes 3 , and the diversion bin 5 can simultaneously supply materials to the 32 feeding tubes 3 on both sides of the frame 1 .

[0076] In addition, the layout of the storage bin 2 and the diversion bin 5 can reduce the overall height of the trolley used for automated breeding, and the storage bin 2 is located low, which makes it convenient for the breeder to dump feed into the storage bin 2.

[0077] Optionally, the diameter of the feed delivery pipe 6 is greater than the diameter of the feeding pipe 3 to ensure that the feed supplied to the diverter bin 5 through the storage bin 2 exceeds the feed discharged through the diverter bin 5 .

[0078] The storage bin 2 and the diversion bin 5 can also be arranged side by side in the horizontal direction. Optionally, the arrangement direction of the storage bin 2 and the diversion bin 5 is along the forward direction of the vehicle body to reduce the width of the trolley for automated breeding perpendicular to the forward direction. In this embodiment, the height of the discharge end of the storage bin 2 is higher than the height of the feed end of the diversion bin 5. The storage bin 2 and the diversion bin 5 are connected through a guide trough or a feed pipe 6, and the feed slides from the storage bin 2 into the diversion bin 5 under the action of gravity.

[0079] The diverter hole 51 can be connected to the feeding tube 3 through a hard tube or a hose. In the embodiment where the diverter hole 51 is connected to the feeding tube 3 through a hose, the position of the hose is easy to adjust, which reduces the difficulty of laying the pipeline. Optionally, the hose is a corrugated tube, which can make the feed slide down more smoothly; the feeding tube 3 can be a PCV tube.

[0080] When the diversion hole 51 is connected to the feeding tube 3, the pipeline connecting the feeding tube 3 located above the storage bin 2 and the diversion hole 51 is located inside the frame 1 and between the storage bin 2 and the diversion bin 5, and the pipeline connecting the feeding tube 3 located below the storage bin 2 and the diversion hole 51 is located outside the frame 1 or between the storage bin 2 and the side wall of the frame 1.

[0081] Optionally, the diversion bin 5 and the storage bin 2 are both funnel-shaped, which can reduce the retention of feed in the diversion bin 5 and the storage bin 2.

[0082] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the trolley for automated farming disclosed in the present solution also includes two guide rails 8 laid between two adjacent rows of farming boxes 15 and arranged in parallel.

[0083] The guide rail 8 can guide the movement of the vehicle body, so as to reduce the difficulty of aligning the feeding tube 3 and the image collector 4 with the feed observation feeding port 151 and the aquatic observation port 152 of the breeding box 15, and improve the accuracy of automatic feeding and automatic observation; at the same time, by guiding the movement of the vehicle body through the mechanical structure, the design of the correction structure is omitted, and the complexity of the trolley used for automated breeding is reduced.

[0084] In some embodiments, the wheels include a front driving wheel 9 and a rear guide wheel 10, wherein the front driving wheel 9 is located at the front end of the frame 1, and the front driving wheel 9 is connected to a drive motor 11, and the drive motor 11 drives the front driving wheel 9 to rotate, providing power for the rotation of the front driving wheel 9; the rear guide wheel 10 serves as a driven wheel, cooperates with the guide rail 8 to guide the movement of the vehicle body, and plays a role in correcting deviation.

[0085] The rear guide wheel 10 can be a V-groove roller, and the V-groove roller cooperates with the guide rail 8 for guidance.

[0086] In other embodiments, the rear guide wheel 10 includes rollers located on both sides of the guide rail 8, the guide rail 8 is clamped between the rollers, and the rollers roll against the side walls of the guide rail 8 to achieve guiding cooperation between the guide rollers and the guide rail 8.

[0087] The rollers on both sides of the guide rail 8 are arranged in a V-shape, and the rollers arranged in the V-shape are connected to the frame 1 through a mounting plate. The length direction of the mounting plate is consistent with the length direction of the guide rail 8, and at least two rollers are arranged on one side of the length direction of the mounting plate to increase the contact area between the guide rail 8 and the rollers and improve the guiding effect.

[0088] The noise from the external environment will disturb the aquatic products in the breeding box 15 and affect the growth of the aquatic products. In this solution, a pad is provided below the guide rail 8, which is used to support the guide rail 8 and keep the guide rail 8 off the ground to prevent the guide wheel and the wheel from contacting the ground and causing noise. Optionally, the guide wheel is a rubber wheel, and the front driving wheel 9 is also a rubber wheel to further reduce noise.

[0089] The pad is fixed on the ground. In order to prevent the guide rail 8 from detaching from the pad during use, a groove matching the shape of the guide rail 8 is provided on the pad in the present invention. Furthermore, the guide rail 8 can be fixed on the pad by a buckle.

[0090] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and an explanation of the technical principles used, and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. The scope of application involved in the present application is not limited to the technical solution formed by a specific combination of the above-mentioned technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above-mentioned technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the above-mentioned application concept.
