[0002] The horse-faced pufferfish is an omnivorous, warm-temperate bottom-dwelling fish in the open sea. It has a certain production along the coast. The fish meat has a high protein content and is a nutritious, popular food. It is an open-sea bottom-dwelling fish.

[0003] After searching, the existing Chinese patent announcement number is: CN116491455A, which provides a feeding device and a method for using green fin puffer fish in cage culture. The patent suspends the green fin puffer fish in the water through a float with a hook or a rope hung on the cage with hooks at both ends, so that the green fin puffer fish can fully eat the feed, meet its nutritional needs for normal growth during the breeding process, and ensure the sustainable and healthy development of the green fin puffer fish breeding industry.

[0004] Although the above patent allows the green-fin pufferfish to fully ingest feed and meet its nutritional needs for normal growth during the breeding process, the above solution still has the following problems: since the position of the feed is moderate and does not move, the feeding range of the pufferfish is small, and the pufferfish will exhibit cannibalism during the growth stage, causing a large number of small fish to be injured and killed. Since the feeding area is small, small and large pufferfish will compete for food, thereby aggravating the cannibalism behavior of the pufferfish, which is not conducive to the breeding of the pufferfish. Therefore, an automatic feeding mechanism for the breeding of the pufferfish is proposed.

[0005] In view of the above problems, an automatic feeding mechanism for horse-faced puffer fish farming is proposed. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0035] In order to further understand the content of the utility model, the utility model is described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model discloses an automatic feeding mechanism for horse-faced puffer fish breeding, comprising a breeding net cage 1, the surface of the breeding net cage 1 is provided with storage plates 2 arranged at equal intervals, the storage plates 2 are internally slidably connected with feeding tubes 5 arranged at equal intervals, the feeding tubes 5 penetrate the bottom surface of the storage plates 2, the lower end of the feeding tubes 5 is fixedly connected with a feeding cage 14, for storing feed for horse-faced puffer fish, and the feed can be fed by the horse-faced puffer fish through the mesh of the feeding cage 14, the bottom of the storage plates 2 is fixedly connected with fixed plates 4 arranged at equal intervals, the feeding tubes 5 penetrate the surface of the fixed plates 4 and are slidably connected with the inside of the fixed plates 4, the length of the fixed plates 4 is between 1.5 meters and 2 meters, so that the lower end of the feeding tubes 5 can penetrate into the water, ensuring that the feeding cages 14 can be smoothly placed in the middle and lower layers of the water, so that the feed in the feeding cages 14 can be smoothly fed by the horse-faced puffer fish in the middle and lower layers.

[0037] Combination Figure 3 A stepper motor 6 is arranged below the storage plate 2. The model of the stepper motor 6 may be 86D8417-03. A protective box 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the breeding cage 1. The surface of the stepper motor 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective box 3. The output end of the stepper motor 6 penetrates the surface of the protective box 3 and is rotatably connected to the inside of the protective box 3. Therefore, the setting of the protective box 3 can protect the stepper motor 6 in the protective box 3, reduce the rust of the stepper motor 6, and improve the service life of the device.

[0038] Combination Figure 4 The output end of the stepper motor 6 is fixedly connected to a fixed shaft 7, and one end of the fixed shaft 7 away from the stepper motor 6 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the breeding cage 1. The surface of the fixed shaft 7 is fixedly connected to a pulley 10, and the surface of the fixed plate 4 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 16. The surface of the rotating shaft 16 is also fixedly connected to the pulley 10. The surfaces of the two pulleys 10 are transmission-connected with belts 13. The interior of the fixed plate 4 is slidably connected to a lifting block 11. The feeding tube 5 passes through the surface of the lifting block 11 and is fixedly connected to the interior of the lifting block 11. The surface of the lifting block 11 is fixedly connected to a connecting strip 12, and the connecting strip 12 is connected to the belt The surface of the lifting block 13 is fixedly connected, so that when the belt 13 rotates, the connecting strip 12 can be driven to move, thereby ensuring the smooth operation of the device. The surface of the lifting block 11 is fixedly connected with a spring 9, and one end of the spring 9 away from the lifting block 11 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed plate 4, and then the spring 9 is set to reset the lifting block 11. Secondly, a damper can be set between the fixed plate 4 and the lifting block 11 to slow down the resetting of the lifting block 11, thereby avoiding the rapid rise of the feeding cage 14 in the water, causing scaring to the horse-faced pufferfish, thereby affecting the feeding of the horse-faced pufferfish, and ensuring the normal use of the device.

[0039] Combination Figure 5The surface of the storage plate 2 is provided with storage troughs 15 arranged at equal intervals, and the cross-section of the storage troughs 15 is trapezoidal, so that the puffer fish feed to be added can be temporarily stored through the setting of the storage troughs 15. At the same time, the depth of the storage troughs 15 is about ten centimeters, which reduces the spillage of the feed in the storage troughs 15 during the movement of the storage plate 2 and reduces the waste of feed. The upper end of the feeding tube 5 is located at the lowest point of the inner wall of the storage trough 15, so that when the upper end of the feeding tube 5 moves to the lowest part of the storage trough 15, the feed in the storage trough 15 can be automatically injected into the feeding tube 5, which reduces the tediousness of subsequent staff in adding feed to the feeding tube 5 and improves the use effect of the device.

[0040] Combination Figure 6 A fixed sleeve 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of the breeding cage 1, and a lifting rod 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 18. One end of the lifting rod 17 away from the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage plate 2, and one end of the lifting rod 17 located inside the fixed sleeve 18 is also fixedly connected to a spring 9. The end of the spring 9 on the lifting rod 17 away from the lifting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 18, so as to drive the lifting rod 17 and the storage plate 2 to reset.

[0041] Combination Figure 3 The surface of the fixed shaft 7 is fixedly connected with an elliptical rotating disk 8, and the rotating disk 8 is located below the storage plate 2. Therefore, through the setting of the rotating disk 8, when the stepping motor 6 is started, the rotating disk 8 can continuously push the storage plate 2, and at the same time, the storage plate 2 can automatically drop under the elastic force of the spring 9 on the lifting rod 17, so that the storage plate 2 can continuously vibrate up and down when the device is running, so as to vibrate the feed in the storage trough 15, avoiding the situation that the feed is retained in the storage trough 15 and cannot be injected into the feeding tube 5. At the same time, the up and down vibration of the storage plate 2 can drive the feeding cage 14 to vibrate to a certain extent in the water, thereby ensuring that the feed in the feeding cage 14 can be vibrated out, ensuring that the horse-faced puffer fish can smoothly ingest the feed, and improving the feeding effect of the device.

[0042] Furthermore, when feeding the pufferfish, the feed is injected into the feeding cage 14 through the feeding tube 5, and then the stepper motor 6 is started, so that the stepper motor 6 is continuously started intermittently. When the stepper motor 6 is started, the fixed shaft 7 and the pulley 10 are driven to rotate, thereby driving the belt 13 to move, and then the connecting strip 12 is pulled, thereby driving the lifting block 11 to slide and descend in the fixed plate 4, and the spring 9 is stretched, thereby driving the feeding tube 5 to slide and descend in the fixed plate 4, so that the feeding cage 14 gradually sinks in the water, and then when the stepper motor 6 stops After stopping, under the elastic force of the spring 9, the lifting block 11 is driven to return to its original state, thereby driving the feeding tube 5 to return to its original state, so that the height of the feeding cage 14 in the water is raised again, thereby realizing the vertical movement of the feeding cage 14 in the water, thereby expanding the feeding area of ​​the pufferfish, thereby reducing the phenomenon of more pufferfish gathering together when the device is feeding the pufferfish, causing the pufferfish to scramble for food, causing the pufferfish to be injured, ensuring that the pufferfish fully eats food while reducing the death of the pufferfish, and having high promotion value and practicality.

[0043] Working principle: Start the stepper motor 6 to drive the belt 13 to move, and then drive the lifting block 11 to slide and descend in the fixed plate 4 through the connecting strip 12, and stretch the spring 9, and the feeding cage 14 gradually sinks in the water. Then, when the stepper motor 6 stops, under the elastic force of the spring 9, the feeding cage 14 is driven to restore its original height, realizing the vertical movement of the feeding cage 14 in the water, thereby expanding the feeding area of ​​the pufferfish.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
