Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aquaculture, and more particularly to a device for separating scallops from a scallop breeding cage. Background Art

[0002] When scallops are being farmed, some of the attached species will stick to the farming cages. When the scallops are harvested after farming is completed, most of the scallops can be directly discharged by opening the farming cages, but some scallops will stick to the side nets of the farming cages and the partitions inside the farming cages. Therefore, separating the scallops from the farming cages is an important part of the scallop farming and harvesting process.

[0003] In the process of separating scallops from breeding cages, manual separation or knocking on the scallops and breeding cages is usually used to separate the scallops from the breeding cages. However, manual separation is inefficient, and knocking on the scallops and breeding cages with strong knocking force will cause the scallop shells to break, affecting the survival rate of the scallops, resulting in the scallop meat no longer being fresh, affecting the quality of the scallop meat.

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 7 A scallop and breeding cage separation device for scallop farming includes a fixing frame 1, a plurality of fixing rods 101 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the fixing frame 1, a cross bar 102 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing rod 101, and a separation component 2 is provided on the outer side of the cross bar 102. The separation component 2 is used to separate the scallop from the breeding cage;

[0031] The separation assembly 2 includes a rotating frame 201 rotatably mounted on the outside of the cross bar 102. A first piston chamber 103 is defined inside the cross bar 102. A moving rod 104 is slidably mounted inside the first piston chamber 103. One end of the moving rod 104 is located outside the cross bar 102. A plurality of first separation rods 202 are provided on the outer wall of the moving rod 104 located outside the cross bar 102. A rotating ring 203 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the plurality of first separation rods 202. A plurality of second separation rods 204 are provided between the rotating ring 203 and the rotating frame 201.

[0032] The second separation rod 204 includes a sleeve rod 205 fixedly connected to the rotating ring 203 and a sliding rod 206 fixedly connected to the rotating frame 201 . The sliding rod 206 is slidably connected to the sleeve rod 205 .

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, when in use, the opening on the side of the breeding cage is opened and the scallops that are not stuck inside are poured out, and then the opening of the breeding cage is opened and put on the rotating frame 201 and the rotating ring 203. Then, the rotating frame 201 and the rotating ring 203 are controlled to rotate to drive the first separation rod 202 and the second separation rod 204 to rotate. After the first separation rod 202 rotates, it can push the scallops stuck to the surface of the partition inside the breeding cage to separate them from the partition. At the same time, the second separation rod 204 rotates to push the scallops stuck to the mesh part of the breeding cage, so that the scallops stuck to the mesh part of the breeding cage are separated from the net.

[0034] The rotating frame 201 and the rotating ring 203 have the same axis. The rotating ring 203 is eccentrically disposed relative to the moving rod 104 . The outer walls of the rotating frame 201 and the rotating ring 203 are both concave-convex structures.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the non-concentric rotating ring 203 and the rotating frame 201 can cause the second separation rod 204 to move relative to the side net of the breeding cage when they rotate. When the rotating ring 203 and the rotating frame 201 are closer to the cross bar 102 and gradually approach the connection between the scallop and the side net, the relative movement direction is toward the cross bar 102, so that the second separation rod 204 has a tendency to pry the scallop, which can not only push the scallop, but also pry the scallop so that the scallop is easier to separate from the side net of the breeding cage.

[0036] A fixing plate 105 is fixedly installed at a position in the middle of the first piston chamber 103 corresponding to the fixing rod 101, and guide rods 106 are fixedly installed at both ends of the fixing plate 105. A second piston chamber 107 is defined in the inner wall of the movable rod 104, and a push plate 108 is installed inside the second piston chamber 107. A threaded groove 109 is defined in the inner wall of the second piston chamber 107, and a ball 110 is embedded in the outer wall of the push plate 108 and is in extrusion contact with the inner wall of the threaded groove 109.

[0037] The push plate 108 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 106 and is slidably connected to the guide rod 106. A return spring 111 is fixedly mounted on the end of the push plate 108 away from the fixed plate 105. The end of the return spring 111 away from the fixed plate 105 is in press contact with the inner wall of the second piston chamber 107.

[0038] A third piston chamber 112 is defined within the fixed rod 101. The interior of the third piston chamber 112 communicates with the first piston chamber 103 within the cross rod 102. The first piston chamber 103 communicates with the second piston chamber 107 within the movable rod 104. The second piston chamber 107 communicates with the outside on the side closest to the first release rod 202.

[0039] A piston rod 113 is slidably installed inside the fixed rod 101, and the piston rod 113 squeezes the air in the fixed rod 101. An electric telescopic rod 114 is installed on the lower side of the piston rod 113. The lower end of the electric telescopic rod 114 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 1, and the electric telescopic rod 114 pushes and pulls the piston rod 113.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, when the electric telescopic rod 114 is controlled to extend, the electric telescopic rod 114 can push the piston rod 113 to move. After the piston rod 113 moves, it can push the air in the third piston chamber 112, so that its internal pressure increases, and the pressure in the first piston chamber 103 connected to the third piston chamber 112 increases. When the pressure in the first piston chamber 103 increases, it can first push the moving rod 104 and the push plate 108. The push plate 108 can first move with the moving rod 104 under the support of the return spring 111. When the moving rod 104 moves a certain distance, the end of the moving rod 104 will contact the partition in the breeding cage. , thereby stopping the movement. At this time, the push plate 108 can move relative to the moving rod 104. After the push plate 108 moves, it can squeeze the thread groove 109, so that the moving rod 104 rotates under the action of the decomposition force of the squeezing force. After the moving rod 104 rotates, it can drive the first separation rod 202 and the rotating ring 203 on its outer side to rotate. After the rotating ring 203 rotates, it can drive the rotating frame 201 to rotate through the sleeve rod 205 and the sliding rod 206. Among them, during the movement of the moving rod 104, the sleeve rod 205 can be driven to move through the first separation rod 202 and the rotating ring 203, so that the sleeve rod 205 moves relative to the sliding rod 206.

[0041] A plurality of guide grooves 115 are provided on the circumferential surface of the outer wall of the movable rod 104 at positions corresponding to the first separation rod 202. A guide block 207 is fixedly installed at the position corresponding to the first separation rod 202 and the guide groove 115. The guide block 207 slides in the guide groove 115, and an extrusion spring 208 is fixedly installed at one end of the guide block 207. The other end of the extrusion spring 208 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide groove 115.

[0042] By adopting the above technical solution, during the rotation of the moving rod 104, the first separation rod 202 and the rotating ring 203, when the first separation rod 202 contacts the scallop, the scallop and the partition are stuck together, which will generate resistance to the first separation rod 202. At this time, under the action of the resistance, the first separation rod 202 can have a tendency to rotate relative to the moving rod 104. Therefore, under this tendency, the first separation rod 202 can move along the direction of the guide groove 115 under the action of the guide block 207. During the movement of the first separation rod 202, the first separation rod 202 will tend to move away from the partition, thereby having a force that pushes the scallop away from the partition, making it easier for the scallop to separate from the partition.

[0043] Instructions for use: When in use, the breeding cage is placed on the outside of the rotating frame 201 and the rotating ring 203, and then the electric telescopic rod 114 is used to push the piston rod 113 to move and squeeze the air in the fixed rod 101. Under the action of air pressure, the moving rod 104 is extended to both sides until it fits with the partition. Then, the piston rod 113 is continued to be pushed to make the push plate 108 move relative to the moving rod 104, so that the moving rod 104 drives the first separation rod 202 and the rotating ring 203 to rotate, separating the scallops on the partition, and during the rotation of the rotating ring 203, the second separation rod 204 and the rotating frame 201 are rotated to separate the scallops on the side net of the breeding cage. After separation, controlling the electric telescopic rod 114 to retract can move the moving rod 104 and its internal push plate 108 to the initial position under the action of air pressure, making it easy to remove the breeding cage from the rotating ring 203 and the rotating frame 201, and at the same time, it is easy to separate the scallops for the next breeding cage.
