[0002] With the booming development of the marine aquaculture industry and the rapid development of aquaculture technology, the performance requirements for aquaculture equipment are also increasing. However, traditional marine aquaculture equipment mostly relies on simple cages or cages for aquaculture, which exposes significant defects in supply management. Specifically, these devices lack flexibility in supply regulation and are difficult to make timely and effective adjustments according to the growth stage of the cultured organisms, thereby limiting the growth potential of the cultured organisms. Traditional replenishment methods mainly rely on artificial feeding, which is not only inefficient, but also time-consuming and labor-intensive when switching between different supplies, and cannot meet the diverse needs of cultured organisms for supplies at different growth stages.
[0003] Although some improved aquaculture devices have appeared on the market, attempting to improve the replenishment efficiency by integrating the replenishment system, these devices often have a single replenishment method and cannot achieve dynamic adjustment and precise replenishment. When changing the replenishment, a lot of time and energy are still required, which seriously affects the aquaculture efficiency and the growth quality of the aquacultured organisms.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a marine aquaculture device that can overcome the above-mentioned defects and achieve dynamic adjustment and precise replenishment to meet the high standards of the modern marine aquaculture industry. Summary of the invention

[0019] See also Figure 1-3 , this embodiment provides a marine aquaculture device, comprising: The circular breeding cage 1 has a plurality of equally divided independent breeding spaces inside, so that the distribution of the cultured organisms is more uniform, which is conducive to improving the breeding density and growth efficiency. At the same time, the independent breeding space is convenient for refined management and reduces the mutual interference between organisms. A plurality of buoys 101 are arranged around the breeding cage 1, so that the breeding device can better adapt to the changes in the marine environment, such as changes in water flow and wind direction, and maintain the stability of the breeding cage 1; The self-rotating supply mechanism 3 includes a supply cage 301. The interior of the supply cage 301 is equally divided into a plurality of independent supply spaces. The supply cage 301 is completely surrounded by the breeding cage 1. A plurality of connecting rods 302 are provided on the supply cage 301. Each connecting rod 302 is slidably supported on the breeding cage 1. The self-rotating supply mechanism 3 enhances the flexibility and durability of the structure through the sliding support design of the connecting rod 302 and the breeding cage 1, reduces the risk of damage caused by environmental factors, and the supply cage 301 can be adjusted by self-rotation; A plurality of connecting cages 2 are provided, each of which is arranged one by one between the breeding space and the replenishing space. The breeding organisms can move back and forth between the breeding space and the replenishing space through the connecting cages 2. One end of the connecting cage 2 is fixed to the inner circle side wall of the breeding cage 1, and the other end is in movable contact with the outer wall of the replenishing cage 301. Of course, windows for the breeding organisms to enter and exit are provided on the inner circle side wall of the breeding cage 1 and the outer wall of the replenishing cage 301. With the rotation adjustment of the replenishing cage 301, the positions of different replenishing spaces can be switched, so that one breeding space can correspond to multiple replenishing spaces, thereby meeting various replenishing needs at different breeding stages. This not only realizes the dynamic connection between the breeding space and the supply space, but also meets the needs of the cultured organisms for multiple supplies at different growth stages, such as the adjustment of food types and quantities and the supplement of oxygen, which greatly improves the supply efficiency and accuracy. Specifically, the design of the connecting cage 2 allows the cultured organisms to move freely between the breeding space and the supply space. Combined with the rotation function of the supply cage 301, the supply strategy can be adjusted for different growth stages, such as providing more high-protein food during the larval period, and focusing on nutritional balance and space expansion during the adult period, thereby optimizing the growth cycle of the cultured organisms and improving the breeding output and quality. Through precise supply and flexible space management, the present invention helps to maintain the ecological balance inside the breeding cage 1, reduce the occurrence of diseases, enhance the immunity and quality of life of the cultured organisms, and realize a healthy and sustainable marine breeding model.
[0020] When the present invention is in use, the breeding cage 1 is equally divided into a plurality of independent breeding spaces, and organisms of the same or different growth stages are cultured in each space, so as to realize reasonable control of breeding density and uniformity of biological distribution. The supply cage 301 is located in the center of the breeding cage 1, is completely surrounded, and its interior is also divided into a plurality of independent supply spaces. The supply cage 301 slides and rests on the breeding cage 1 through a plurality of connecting rods 302, so that the supply cage 301 can rotate under the action of an external force (such as a motor drive). During the rotation process, different supply spaces are aligned with the breeding space in turn, and the connection between the cultured organisms and the supply space is realized through the connecting cage 2. The connecting cage 2 serves as a bridge between the breeding space and the supply space, one end of which is fixed to the inner circle side wall of the breeding cage 1, and the other end is in active contact with the outer wall of the supply cage 301. When the supply cage 301 rotates to a specific position, the windows at both ends of the connecting cage 2 are aligned, and the cultured organisms can freely shuttle between the breeding space and the supply space through the connecting cage 2. Corresponding food, oxygen or other necessities are pre-placed in the supply space according to the needs of the farmed organisms to achieve precise supply.
[0021] Of course, the dynamic optimization of the breeding environment can be achieved by controlling the rotation speed and frequency of the supply cage 301 and adjusting the supply content in the supply space according to the growth stage and actual needs of the breeding organisms. At the same time, by observing the activities of the breeding organisms in the connecting cage 2, their health status and supply needs can be understood in a timely manner, providing data support for subsequent breeding management.
[0022] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown in or 2, the position and number of each buoy 101 correspond to each breeding space, and each buoy 101 is precisely set at the outer periphery of the corresponding breeding space, which not only provides stable buoyancy support for the breeding cage 1, but also ensures the balance and stability of the breeding cage 1 in the water. Even in a complex and changeable marine environment, the shape of the breeding cage 1 can be kept unchanged, preventing the breeding cage 1 from tilting or overturning due to changes in water flow, waves or wind direction, thereby effectively protecting the safety of the cultured organisms.
[0023] In some embodiments, Figure 1As shown, the supply cage 301 is coaxially arranged with the breeding cage 1, and the top and bottom of the supply cage 301 are completely within the enclosure of the breeding cage 1. This design not only ensures the stability of the supply cage 301 during the rotation process, but also further optimizes the spatial layout of the breeding device and improves the space utilization rate. Specifically, this design enables the supply cage 301 to maintain a high degree of stability during the rotation, avoiding shaking or deviation caused by external forces (such as water flow, wind and waves). At the same time, the surrounding structure of the breeding cage 1 also provides an additional protective layer for the supply cage 301, preventing external objects (such as floating objects, marine life) from colliding with or interfering with the supply cage 301, thereby ensuring the safety of the cultured organisms and supply items.
[0024] In some embodiments, each connecting cage 2 is tilted, and the height of one end of the connecting cage 2 near the supply cage 301 is higher than the height of the other end. The tilted connecting cage 2 is designed to facilitate the natural inflow of supplies. When the supply cage 301 rotates to align with a certain breeding space, the supplies can naturally slide into the breeding space along the tilted direction of the connecting cage 2, further facilitating the feeding of supplies.
[0025] In some embodiments, the connecting cage 2 is in interference-extrusion contact with the supply cage 301. The interference-extrusion contact ensures a tight connection between the connecting cage 2 and the supply cage 301, and even if they are affected by external forces such as currents, wind and waves in the marine environment, they can maintain a stable contact between the two, avoiding the problem of escape of cultured organisms or leakage of supply items due to poor contact. This tight connection method greatly improves the reliability and safety of the culture device.
[0026] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, a locking mechanism 303 is provided at one end of the connecting rod 302 resting on the breeding cage 1. The locking action of the locking mechanism 303 can fix the connecting rod 302, thereby fixing the supply cage 301. Specifically, firstly, the existence of the locking mechanism 303 makes the connection between the connecting rod 302 and the breeding cage 1 more stable and reliable. In the marine environment, the breeding device is often impacted by external forces such as water flow, wind and waves. The locking mechanism 303 can ensure that the connecting rod 302 will not easily slide or fall off due to these external forces, thereby ensuring the stable position of the supply cage 301 in the breeding cage 1. This stability is crucial for the cultured organisms because they need a relatively stable environment to grow and reproduce. Secondly, the locking mechanism 303 provides controllability for the rotation of the supply cage 301. When the supply cage 301 needs to rotate to switch different supply spaces, the relative sliding between the connecting rod 302 and the breeding cage 1 can be achieved by unlocking the locking mechanism 303. When the supply cage 301 rotates to its position, the connecting rod 302 is fixed again by the locking mechanism 303, thereby ensuring that the supply cage 301 remains stable at the required position. In addition, the locking mechanism 303 also enhances the overall structural strength of the breeding device. Since the connecting rod 302 is an important supporting component in the breeding device, its stability directly affects the structural strength of the entire breeding device. By fixing the connecting rod 302 on the breeding cage 1 through the locking mechanism 303, the external force exerted on the breeding device can be effectively dispersed and withstood, thereby improving the ability of the breeding device to resist wind pressure, surge, etc., and extending the service life of the breeding device.
