Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of artificial water flow fish luring, in particular to a fish gathering system. Background Art

[0002] As a renewable clean energy, water conservancy and hydropower projects have huge economic and social benefits such as flood control, power generation, shipping, and emission reduction, but at the same time they have a great negative impact on the river's ecological environment. Engineering hubs inevitably destroy the connectivity of rivers, block fish migration channels, block fish gene exchange, and cause damage to ecological diversity. Therefore, it is very necessary to design and build fishways, simulated natural channels, fish lifts, fish locks, fish collection and transportation systems, or fish passing facilities in different combinations for the purpose of protecting fish resources.

[0003] The fish gathering system is an important part of the fish passing facilities. At present, the fish attracting methods used by the fish gathering system mainly include water flow attracting, sound attracting, light attracting, smell attracting, bubble curtain attracting, etc. Relatively speaking, based on the behavioral characteristics of fish that move against the current, using water flow attracting is the most effective way to gather fish.

[0004] The water flow fish luring method usually uses the tailwater of power generation flowing through the fish collection system (fish collection trough) with a certain speed to induce fish into the fish collection box. The fish collection system using the water flow luring method needs to be arranged in conjunction with the power station hub, and is generally arranged in the downstream area of ​​the tailwater of the power station. Due to the restrictions of the river terrain and geological conditions and water flow conditions, the flow velocity / flow rate of the water flowing through the fish collection system (fish collection trough) is much lower than the flow velocity / flow rate of the power generation tailwater. Fish are often attracted by the power generation tailwater and eventually gather near the tailwater instead of the fish collection system (fish collection trough), resulting in low fish collection efficiency; in the reservoir area or the river with a slow flow rate, the water flow under natural conditions is difficult to meet the requirements of water flow luring. How to improve the efficiency of fish collection is an urgent problem to be solved in the design and construction of fish collection systems. Utility Model Content
