Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of shrimp fry breeding, and in particular to a shrimp fry breeding and feeding device. Background Art

[0002] In the initial stage of shrimp fry farming, they have special requirements for bait. Generally, they need to be fed with Artemia. Artemia is a starter feed that can adapt to the stage when shrimp fry just start to grow and help them smoothly transition to the subsequent farming stage. Artemia is rich in protein and nutrients. The amino acid and protein content in its body is the richest in the starter feed for shrimp fry in the aquaculture industry. These nutrients are essential for the growth and development of shrimp fry.

[0003] The feeding of Artemia is not done randomly, but according to a set process. In the set process, Artemia needs to be mixed with water in proportion to form a feed solution, and the principle of small amounts and multiple times should be followed, that is, the amount of feeding should not be too much each time, and it should be fed multiple times according to time nodes. When feeding, the Artemia feed solution needs to be evenly dispersed in the breeding pond so that the shrimp seedlings with weak swimming ability can eat.

[0004] Most of the existing feeding methods are manual feeding, which requires workers to constantly mix and spread the feed. When there are many breeding ponds, this method is not only cumbersome to operate, but also inefficient. In addition, each feeding process requires manual control, which is a huge test for the staff's sense of responsibility and execution.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design a shrimp fry breeding and feeding device, which can reduce the steps of manual intervention and the risk of human control through the mutual cooperation between various components, while also being able to effectively implement the established process of feeding Artemia. Utility Model Content

[0006] The utility model aims to provide a shrimp fry breeding and feeding device to solve the problems described in the background technology.

[0007] The technical solution of the utility model is achieved in this way:

[0008] A shrimp fry breeding and feeding device comprises a mounting plate, a support frame and a servo motor are fixedly arranged on the upper end of the mounting plate, a controller and a quantitative water supply component are also fixedly arranged on the mounting plate, a quantitative discharging mechanism and a mixing barrel are fixedly arranged on the support frame, the mixing barrel is arranged below the quantitative discharging mechanism, the mixing barrel is used to receive materials provided by the quantitative discharging mechanism and water provided by the quantitative water supply component, a stirring mechanism for stirring materials and water inside the mixing barrel is also arranged on the mixing barrel, an output shaft of the servo motor extends upward and is fixedly arranged with a turntable, a water pump and an electromagnetic water valve are fixedly arranged on the upper end of the turntable, a water inlet of the water pump is communicated with the bottom of the mixing barrel, a water outlet of the water pump is communicated with the water inlet of the electromagnetic water valve, a spray pipe is arranged at the water outlet of the electromagnetic water valve, and the servo motor, the quantitative water supply component, the quantitative discharging mechanism, the water pump, the electromagnetic water valve and the stirring mechanism are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0009] When using the above scheme, the mounting plate is fixedly installed on the side of the breeding pond, and then the dry Artemia worm material is added to the quantitative discharging mechanism. The instructions are set by the controller. When the feeding time node arrives, the controller allows the quantitative discharging mechanism to add a preset number of Artemia worms to the mixing barrel, and at the same time controls the quantitative water supply component to add a preset volume of water to the mixing barrel, and then starts the stirring mechanism to stir the material and water in the mixing barrel for a period of time to form a liquid feed. Then, the servo motor rotates the turntable to the initial angle, and the operating power of the water pump is preset to multiple levels. First, it is operated at the lowest level of power, and the electromagnetic water valve is opened for a period of time and closed during the operation, so that the liquid feed is accelerated by the water pump and sprayed out from the injection pipe, forming the shortest injection distance under the preset power level, and then the water pump operation power level is increased in turn to the highest level, and the electromagnetic water valve is opened for a period of time at each power operation level. In this way, the liquid feed is sprayed and fed in sequence from near to far at a spray angle. After completing the feeding at one angle, the servo motor is controlled to rotate the turntable to the next preset angle and spray again. When all preset angles are completed, the feeding device completes the fan-shaped covering feeding operation. By setting up two or more feeding devices at different locations and setting different spray parameters, a cross-covering network can be formed to achieve a feeding operation with a more complete coverage.

[0010] During the entire process, the staff only needs to add a sufficient amount of Artemia material into the quantitative discharging mechanism on time, which reduces the weight of human intervention and reduces the risk of human control.

[0011] By providing a quantitative discharging mechanism and a quantitative water supply component, the material and liquid can be mixed stably according to the material-liquid ratio.

[0012] Through the cooperation of the water pump and the electromagnetic water valve, the feeding operation can be completed stably according to the feeding amount.

[0013] Through the cooperation of the servo motor and the turntable, the bidding operation can be carried out stably according to the preset trajectory.

[0014] Through the cooperation of the controller and various components, feeding can be carried out stably according to the preset time, especially when there are a large number of breeding ponds, the improvement in efficiency is more significant.

[0015] A further technical solution is that the quantitative discharging mechanism includes a storage barrel fixedly mounted on a support frame, and also includes a spiral discharging device fixedly mounted on the support frame, the spiral discharging device includes a spiral conveying pipe connected to the bottom of the storage barrel, a spiral shaft is provided in the spiral conveying pipe, the spiral discharging device also includes a spiral motor for driving the spiral shaft, the spiral discharging device also includes a discharging pipe provided at the bottom of the spiral conveying pipe, the discharging pipe is connected to a mixing barrel, and the spiral motor is electrically connected to a controller.

[0016] When using the above solution, the staff adds Artemia materials into the storage barrel. When the preset feeding time node arrives, the controller controls the screw motor to drive the screw shaft to rotate. The screw shaft transports the Artemia materials that fall into the spiral conveying pipe to the discharge pipe, and then transports them to the mixing barrel through the discharge pipe, thereby completing the quantitative discharge.

[0017] A further technical solution is that the quantitative water supply component includes a flow pump, the inlet of the flow pump is connected to a pumping pipe, the outlet of the flow pump is connected to a water outlet pipe, the water outlet pipe is connected to a mixing barrel, and the flow pump is electrically connected to a controller.

[0018] When using the above solution, the water pump is placed in the breeding pond, and the water in the breeding pond is pumped into the mixing tank for mixing with Artemia, which can avoid sudden changes in water quality caused by adding new water. Quantitative water supply can be achieved through a flow pump.

[0019] A further technical solution is that the stirring mechanism includes a stirring motor fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the mixing barrel, and also includes an agitator arranged in the mixing barrel, the agitator includes a stirring shaft and a stirring component arranged on the stirring shaft, the stirring shaft of the agitator passes through the outer wall of the mixing barrel and is driven and connected to the output shaft of the stirring motor, and the stirring motor is electrically connected to the controller.

[0020] When the above solution is used, the controller controls the stirring motor to rotate, the stirring motor drives the stirring shaft to rotate, and the stirring component on the stirring shaft stirs the material and water in the stirring barrel.

[0021] A further technical solution is that the upper end of the mixing barrel is open, and the terminal pipe openings of the material discharge pipe and the water discharge pipe are arranged directly above the upper end opening of the mixing barrel.

[0022] When the above solution is used, by providing a mixing barrel with an opening at the upper end, the staff can timely observe and monitor the stirring conditions in the mixing barrel, and the cleaning of the mixing barrel is also convenient.

[0023] A further technical solution is that a liquid outlet pipe is provided at the bottom of the mixing barrel, and the water inlet of the water pump is connected to the liquid outlet pipe through a hose.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0025] 1. High degree of automation: The entire feeding process is managed automatically by the controller, which reduces manual intervention, reduces the risk of manual operation, and improves work efficiency. The staff only needs to add Artemia materials on time, and the other steps are completed automatically.

[0026] 2. Accurate mixing ratio of feed and liquid: By setting up a quantitative discharging mechanism and a quantitative water supply component, the solution can ensure that the ratio of feed and liquid is stable and accurate each time it is mixed, which is crucial to the health and growth of shrimp fry.

[0027] 3. The feeding amount is stable and controllable: Through the precise coordination of the water pump and the electromagnetic water valve, the feeding amount can be stably controlled to ensure that each feeding meets the preset feeding amount, avoiding overfeeding or underfeeding.

[0028] 4. Uniform feeding coverage: The servo motor and the turntable can be used to accurately feed the liquid at different angles. By presetting multiple angles, the fan-shaped feeding operation can be completed, which improves the uniformity and coverage of feeding. At the same time, by setting up two or more feeding devices at different locations and setting different spray parameters, a cross-covering feeding network can be easily formed to further expand and optimize the coverage of feeding.

[0029] 5. Efficient time management: The controller can ensure that each feeding is carried out at the preset time point, which is particularly suitable for managing multiple breeding ponds, significantly improving the efficiency and punctuality of feeding work. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
