Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fish protection technology in water conservancy engineering, specifically a live fish integrated transportation equipment and transportation method. Background Technology

[0002] The live fish integrated transport equipment is a special transport equipment that integrates multiple functions such as oxygenation, cooling, water purification, and individual separation. It is mainly used to transport live fish safely and efficiently from the place of origin to the destination, while maintaining the freshness and quality of the fish. Its main body is composed of a box, which is equipped with corresponding cooling, water purification, and individual separation systems.

[0003] The existing live fish individual integrated transport boxes, after transporting individual Chinese sturgeon or red-lipped barbs from the downstream to the upstream of the dam, need to release the individual fish into the upstream water. However, since the fish are in the bottom water, the pressure inside the water is different from that inside the equipment. When the fish are directly introduced into the water, the pressure change is too large and too fast, which can harm the fish. Therefore, the equipment needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, this invention provides a live fish integrated transportation device and method, which has the advantage of facilitating stable and slow pressure changes for the fish.

[0007] Preferably, the main body of the live fish transport box and the air storage chamber are provided with an auxiliary balancing assembly located on one side of the pressurization push plate. The auxiliary balancing assembly includes a limit frame, a mounting rod, a rectangular slider, a return spring and a first connecting arm. The limiting frame is located in the middle of one end of the pressure boosting plate. The mounting rod is fixedly installed inside the live fish transport box body. The rectangular slider is movably installed on the top of the mounting rod. The rectangular slider is elastically connected to the bottom of the live fish transport box body through a return spring. The first connecting arm is hinged between the limiting frame and the rectangular slider.

[0008] Preferably, an inflation valve tube is fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the main body of the live fish transport box, and the outer end of the inflation valve tube is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the air storage chamber.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the live fish transport box is provided with a sealing assembly, which includes a cover plate, a buckle groove, a locking block, and a second connecting spring. The cover plate is hinged to the top of the live fish transport box body, the buckle groove is opened on the inner side of the top of the cover plate, the clamping block is movably installed inside the live fish transport box body and located on the inner side of the cover plate, and the second connecting spring is fixedly installed on the inner end of the clamping block.

[0010] Preferably, the other end of the second connecting spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the live fish transport box.

[0011] Preferably, the main body of the live fish transport box is provided with a linkage component located outside the clamping block. The linkage component includes a fixed rod, a push rod, a movable block, and a second connecting arm. The fixed rod is fixedly installed on the bottom outer side of the clamping block. The push rod is movably installed inside the live fish transport box body and located outside the fixed rod. The movable block is movably installed inside the live fish transport box body and the air storage chamber and located outside the push rod and the air inlet pipe. The second connecting arm is hinged between the outside of the push rod and the top of the movable block.

[0012] Preferably, the inner side of the push rod and the outer side of the fixed rod that are in contact with each other are both designed with bevels.

[0013] Preferably, the movable block is elastically connected to the inner wall of the gas storage chamber via a power spring.

[0014] A method for transporting live fish individually, the method is as follows: S1. Fasting and Exercise: Before transportation, the fish are fasted and exercised by netting to improve their ability to adapt to the transportation environment. S2. Packaging and shipping: Carefully pack the fish into the main body of the live fish transport box, taking care to avoid overcrowding and damage. At the same time, adjust the loading density and water volume according to the type and size of the fish. S3. Monitoring and Adjustment: During transportation, closely monitor the water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and water quality parameters inside the equipment, and adjust them as needed; S4. Regular water changes and oxygenation: Based on transportation time and fish needs, regularly change the water and increase dissolved oxygen levels to maintain a stable aquatic environment. S5. Quick unloading: Upon arrival at the destination, unload the fish from the transport equipment as soon as possible to avoid prolonged storage. S6. Adapt to the new environment: Place the fish in suitable waters or breeding ponds to allow them to adapt to the new environment.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The above technical solution, by setting up an air storage chamber and pressurizing push plates, allows water to enter the outer side of the pressurizing push plates through the water inlet at the bottom of the air storage chamber when the entire live fish transport box is placed on the water surface. This pushes the two pressurizing push plates to move in opposite directions. Subsequently, the gas inside the pressurizing push plates slowly enters the interior of the live fish transport box through the air intake component, achieving the purpose of slow pressurization. Finally, the air storage chamber is filled with water, causing the entire live fish transport box to sink. The interior of the live fish transport box is pressurized to the same pressure as the water, facilitating the smooth release of the fish and avoiding injury.

[0016] This invention, by setting up a pressurizing pusher plate and an auxiliary balancing component, allows the auxiliary balancing component to limit the distance of the two pressurizing pushers moving towards each other when the two pressurizing pushers move in opposite directions, keeping the two pressurizing pushers moving the same distance. This means that the amount of water entering the two air storage chambers is the same, and the amount of gas entering the main body of the live fish transport box is the same. This ensures that the main body of the live fish transport box is stably and vertically submerged in the water, avoiding tilting that could affect complete submersion.

[0017] This invention, through the setting of a pressurizing push plate and a linkage component, ensures that when the pressurizing push plate moves towards the innermost side, the gas inside the gas storage chamber completely enters the main body of the live fish transport box, and the entire main body of the live fish transport box is completely submerged in water. At this time, the pressurizing push plate will smoothly push the linkage component to drive the locking blocks to move towards each other, causing the inner ends of the two locking blocks to disengage from the inner side of the cover plate, releasing the locking and fixing effect on the cover plate. Then, as the air pressure inside the main body of the live fish transport box increases, the two cover plates can be smoothly pushed to flip open, so that the fish can be smoothly released into the water.

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, the present invention provides a live fish integrated transportation device, including a live fish transport box body 1; an air storage chamber 3 disposed on both sides of the live fish transport box body 1; a pressurization component 4, which includes a water inlet 401, which is opened on the outer side of the bottom of the live fish transport box body 1, and a spiral blade 402 is movably sleeved inside the water inlet 401; a pressurization push plate 403 located inside the water inlet 401 is movably installed inside the air storage chamber 3; and an air intake component 5, which includes an air intake pipe 501, which is fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the live fish transport box body 1 and communicates with the inner cavity of the air storage chamber 3; a one-way valve 502 is movably installed inside the air intake pipe 501, and the one-way valve 502 is elastically connected to the inside of the air intake pipe 501 through a first connecting spring 503.

[0022] The spiral blade 402 is designed to scrape off impurities in the water passing through the water inlet 401 by rotating it, thus preventing blockage inside the water inlet 401 and allowing water to slowly fill the gas storage chamber 3 through the water inlet 401.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an oxygen delivery valve pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of one end of the live fish transport box body 1, and an exhaust pipe 11 located outside the pressure boosting plate 403 is fixedly connected to the top of the air storage chamber 3.

[0024] The above solution is adopted: by setting up an oxygen delivery valve pipe 2 and an exhaust pipe 11, the operator can connect the oxygenator pipe to the oxygen delivery valve pipe 2 through the design of the oxygen delivery valve pipe 2, so as to oxygenate the inside of the live fish transport box 1 and continuously supply the fish with oxygen. The top of the exhaust pipe 11 is equipped with a waterproof and breathable membrane, which allows the gas outside the pressure push plate 403 to be discharged smoothly through it, and allows water to enter the interior of the gas storage chamber 3 smoothly.

[0025] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the main body 1 of the live fish transport box and the air storage chamber 3 are equipped with an auxiliary balancing component 6 located on one side of the pressurizing push plate 403. The auxiliary balancing component 6 includes a limit frame 601, a mounting rod 602, a rectangular slider 603, a return spring 604 and a first connecting arm 605. The limiting frame 601 is located in the middle of one end of the pressure boosting plate 403. The mounting rod 602 is fixedly installed inside the live fish transport box body 1. The rectangular slider 603 is movably installed on the top of the mounting rod 602. The rectangular slider 603 is elastically connected to the bottom of the live fish transport box body 1 through the return spring 604. The first connecting arm 605 is hinged between the limiting frame 601 and the rectangular slider 603.

[0026] The above solution is adopted as follows: By setting a reset spring 604, when the booster push plate 403 faces each other, it can push the two limit brackets 601 to drive the first connecting arm 605 to deflect and push the rectangular slider 603 downward as a whole, while compressing the reset spring 604. When the reset spring 604 is released, it will push the rectangular slider 603 upward as a whole, so that the two first connecting arms 605 deflect and push the two limit brackets 601 and the booster push plate 403 to move in opposite directions and reset.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, air inflator pipes 7 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the main body 1 of the live fish transport box, and the outer end of the air inflator pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the air storage chamber 3.

[0028] The above scheme is adopted: by setting up an inflation valve pipe 7, the operator can connect an external inflation device through the inflation valve pipe 7, and while the two booster push plates 403 move in opposite directions, the gas is filled into the interior of the gas storage chamber 3 through the auxiliary balance component 6 to replenish it for subsequent sinking.

[0029] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the top of the live fish transport box body 1 is provided with a sealing assembly 8, which includes a cover plate 801, a buckle groove 802, a clamping block 803, and a second connecting spring 804. The cover plate 801 is hinged to the top of the live fish transport box body 1. The buckle groove 802 is opened on the inner side of the top of the cover plate 801. The clamping block 803 is movably installed inside the live fish transport box body 1 and located on the inner side of the cover plate 801. The second connecting spring 804 is fixedly installed on the inner end of the clamping block 803.

[0030] The above solution is adopted: by setting the clamping blocks 803, when the outer ends of the two clamping blocks 803 are inserted into the inner end of the cover plate 801 for fixing, the cover plate 801 can be clamped and fixed as a whole.

[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, the other end of the second connecting spring 804 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the live fish transport box body 1.

[0032] The above solution is adopted: by setting a second connecting spring 804, the elastic force of the second connecting spring 804 can push the two locking blocks 803 to move in opposite directions so that the outer end of the locking block 803 is locked inside the cover plate 801.

[0033] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the main body 1 of the live fish transport box is equipped with a linkage component 9 located outside the clamping block 803. The linkage component 9 includes a fixed rod 901, a push rod 902, a movable block 903, and a second connecting arm 904. The fixed rod 901 is fixedly installed on the bottom outer side of the clamping block 803. The push rod 902 is movably installed inside the live fish transport box body 1 and is located outside the fixed rod 901. The movable block 903 is movably installed inside the live fish transport box body 1 and the air storage chamber 3 and is located outside the push rod 902 and the air inlet pipe 501. The second connecting arm 904 is hinged between the outside of the push rod 902 and the top of the movable block 903.

[0034] The above scheme is adopted: by setting a second connecting arm 904, when the pressure boosting push plate 403 moves towards each other, it can push the bottom inclined surface of the movable block 903 and drive the movable block 903 upward as a whole, which can push the second connecting arm 904 to deflect and push the push rod 902 to move towards each other.

[0035] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner side of the push rod 902 and the outer side of the fixed rod 901 that are in contact with each other are both designed with a bevel.

[0036] The above solution is adopted: by designing the inclined surfaces of the contact surfaces of the push rod 902 and the fixed rod 901, when the push rod 902 moves towards each other, the inclined surface on the inner side of the push rod 902 slides and squeezes the inclined surface on the outer side of the fixed rod 901, thereby causing the fixed rod 901 and the clamping block 803 to move towards each other as a whole, so that the outer end of the clamping block 803 disengages from the inner side of the cover plate 801, and releases the clamping fixation on the cover plate 801.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the movable block 903 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the air storage chamber 3 via the power spring 10.

[0038] The above solution is adopted: by setting a power spring 10, the elastic force of the power spring 10 can help push the movable block 903 to reset downward as a whole.

[0039] Working principle and usage process of this invention: First, after the operator transports the Chinese sturgeon or red-lipped barbel inside the live fish transport box 1 from below the dam to above the dam, the entire live fish transport box 1 needs to be placed on the water above the dam. At this time, water will enter through the water inlet 401 at the bottom of the outer side of the air storage chamber 3, and the water flow will drive the spiral blade 402 to rotate to scrape away impurities. This allows water to slowly enter the air storage chamber 3 and the outer side of the pressurizing push plate 403 through the water inlet 401. At this time, the gas outside the pressurizing push plate 403 will be discharged through the exhaust pipe 11.

[0040] When the two pressurizing push plates 403 are pushed by water and move towards each other, the two limiting frames 601 will move towards each other synchronously. Then, the two first connecting arms 605 of the same size will deflect and push the rectangular slider 603 to slide downward along the surface of the mounting rod 602, thereby limiting the distance that the two pressurizing push plates 403 can move. This allows the two pressurizing push plates 403 to move a corresponding distance so that water can enter the outside of the pressurizing push plates 403 in the same way. The push can keep the pressurizing push plates 403 pushing the same gas inside to enter the air inlet pipe 501. Then, it will push the one-way valve column 502 to move inward until a gap is created with the inner cavity of the air inlet pipe 501, so that the gas can smoothly enter the interior of the live fish transport box body 1 for pressurization. Finally, the entire live fish transport box body 1 is steadily and vertically submerged in the water. The fish can also gradually adapt to the pressure change by slowly sinking.

[0041] Afterwards, when the two pressurizing push plates 403 push the gas inside the air storage chamber 3 into the live fish transport box body 1, causing the entire live fish transport box body 1 to be completely submerged in the water, the pressurizing push plates 403 can move to the innermost side of the air storage chamber 3. This will push the inclined surface at the bottom of the movable block 903, causing the two movable blocks 903 on both sides to move upward in sync. This will cause the second connecting arm 904 to deflect and push the two push rods 902 to move in opposite directions. Then, the inclined surface on the inner side of the push rod 902 will slide along the inclined surface on the outer side of the fixed rod 901, and smoothly squeeze and push the two clamping blocks 803 to move in opposite directions until one end of the clamping block 803 is completely detached from the inside of the cover plate 801. This will release the clamping and fixing effect on the cover plate 801. Finally, the increased air pressure inside the live fish transport box body 1 will push the two cover plates 801 to flip open, so that the fish can be released smoothly into the water.
