Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feeding devices, and more specifically, to a feeding device for fish domestication. Background Art
[0002] In the complex process of fish feed farming, domestication and diet conversion, as a crucial link, is directly related to the growth rate, health status of fish and the final farming efficiency. In traditional feeding devices, the structure is simple, usually consisting of only an open container or storage bin, and its operation method is also extremely primitive - directly putting the feed into the farming area by pouring or spreading. This method is not only inefficient, but also difficult to accurately control the feeding amount and frequency. For the process of fish domestication and diet conversion that requires fine management, it is obviously inadequate. Particularly crucial is the serious shortage of adaptability and flexibility in traditional feeding devices. Facing different scales and different types of farming environments, these devices often cannot make effective adjustments to meet diverse farming needs. This not only limits their application in different farming scenarios, but also forces farmers to additionally invest space and resources to fix or install these devices, thus further exacerbating the low space utilization rate and the increase in farming costs. Therefore, it is necessary to improve and optimize them. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a feeding device for fish domestication, which has the advantages of automatic adjustment and quantitative feeding of grains.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A feeding device for fish domestication, including a support platform, on the top of which a first motor is fixedly installed. The output shaft of the first motor penetrates through the support platform and is rotationally connected to the support platform. A gear is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the first motor. Two support frames are slidably installed at the bottom of the support platform. Tooth grooves are respectively opened on the sides of the two support frames close to each other, and both tooth grooves are engaged with the gear.
[0005] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, a storage bin is installed on the top of the support platform. Two quantitative discharging mechanisms are fixedly installed on the right side of the storage bin. The two quantitative discharging mechanisms are designed to be symmetrically distributed front and back. The quantitative discharging mechanism includes a second motor fixedly installed on the outer wall on the right side of the storage bin. A rotating rod is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the second motor. The left end of the rotating rod extends into the storage bin and is rotationally connected to the storage bin. A plurality of rectangular plates are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the storage bin. A discharging groove is opened at the bottom of the storage bin. A discharging slideway is fixedly installed on the front of the storage bin.
[0006] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, two limiting grooves are provided at the bottom of the support platform, and two limiting bumps are respectively fixedly installed at the tops of the two support frames. The two limiting bumps are respectively adapted to the corresponding limiting grooves and are slidably connected to the corresponding limiting grooves.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, rectangular grooves are respectively provided at the bottoms of the two support frames, and a plurality of arc-shaped rubber pads are respectively fixedly installed on the inner walls of the two rectangular grooves.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, a water pump is fixedly installed on the top of the support platform. A hollow pipe one is fixedly installed at the water inlet end of the water pump, and a hollow pipe two is fixedly installed at the water outlet end of the water pump.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. Driven by the first motor, an efficient and stable transmission relationship is established between the gear and the tooth grooves on the support frame of the present utility model, ensuring smooth and unobstructed movement of the support frame in the horizontal direction and achieving precise position control. When the operator controls the operation of the first motor according to the specific conditions of the fish pond or breeding area and the distribution of fish, the gear will gradually advance or retreat along the tooth grooves, thereby driving the support frame to make flexible adjustments in the horizontal direction. When the support frame is clamped with the wall of the breeding tank, it can further increase the stability of the feeding device, prevent it from shaking or shifting during operation, and thus ensure the accuracy and reliability of feeding. This feeding device also has a high space utilization rate. Since the support frame can be flexibly adjusted according to the breeding environment, the feeding device does not need to occupy additional space for fixation or installation, thus saving a large amount of breeding space. Compared with traditional devices, this feeding device demonstrates its wide applicability. Whether it is a small household fish tank, a medium-sized ornamental fish pond or a large commercial breeding farm, the appropriate length and position of the support frame can be selected according to actual needs to install the feeding device, which not only meets the breeding requirements of different scales and different types of fish, but also improves the breeding efficiency and economic benefits.
[0014] 2. By installing two symmetrically distributed quantitative discharging mechanisms before and after, the feeding device of the present utility model can achieve precise control of the feed delivery amount. Each quantitative discharging mechanism is driven by a second motor to rotate the rotating rod in the storage granary, and the feed amount for each feeding can be accurately adjusted, which helps to meet the different growth stages and nutritional requirements of fish and promote the healthy growth of fish. The automated design of the quantitative discharging mechanism reduces the burden of manual feeding and improves the feeding efficiency. The operator only needs to set the feeding parameters, and the feeding device can automatically complete the feed delivery work without frequent manual operation. This not only saves labor costs but also reduces the feeding errors caused by human factors. By precisely controlling the feeding amount, the feeding device can effectively reduce feed waste. In the traditional feeding method, due to the inability to precisely control the feeding amount, there are often situations of excessive or insufficient feed, resulting in feed waste or insufficient fish nutrition. However, this design realizes precise control of the feeding amount through the quantitative discharging mechanism, ensuring the effective utilization of feed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Specific embodiments
[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, the present utility model provides a feeding device for fish domestication, including a support platform 1. A first motor 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the support platform 1. The output shaft of the first motor 2 penetrates through the support platform 1 and is rotatably connected to the support platform 1. A gear 3 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the first motor 2. Two support frames 4 are slidably installed at the bottom of the support platform 1. Tooth grooves 9 are respectively formed on the sides of the two support frames 4 close to each other. Both of the two tooth grooves 9 are engaged with the gear 3.
[0024] Driven by the first motor 2, an efficient and stable transmission relationship is established between the gear 3 and the tooth groove 9 on the support frame 4, ensuring smooth and unobstructed movement of the support frame 4 in the horizontal direction and achieving precise position control. When the operator, according to the specific conditions of the fish pond or breeding area and the distribution of fish, controls the operation of the first motor 2, the gear 3 will gradually advance or retreat along the tooth groove 9, thereby driving the support frame 4 to make flexible adjustments in the horizontal direction. When the support frame 4 is clamped with the breeding tank wall, it can further increase the stability of the feeding device, prevent it from shaking or shifting during operation, and thus ensure the accuracy and reliability of feeding. This feeding device also has a high space utilization rate. Since the support frame 4 can be flexibly adjusted according to the breeding environment, the feeding device does not need to occupy additional space for fixation or installation, thus saving a large amount of breeding space. Compared with traditional devices, this feeding device demonstrates its wide applicability. Whether it is a small home fish tank, a medium-sized ornamental fish pond or a large commercial breeding farm, the appropriate length and position of the support frame 4 can be selected according to actual needs to install the feeding device, which not only meets the breeding needs of different scales and different types of fish, but also improves the breeding efficiency and economic benefits.
[0025] First, the operator, according to the size of the fish pond or breeding area, controls the operation of the first motor 2 to make the gear 3 gradually advance or retreat along the tooth groove 9 on the support frame 4, thereby adjusting the position of the support frame 4 until the support frame 4 is clamped with the breeding tank wall to ensure the stability of the feeding device. At the same time, check whether the feed quantity in the storage bin 15 is sufficient and set the feeding parameters of the quantitative discharging mechanism as needed. Start the water pump 10, whose water inlet end sucks the water body in the breeding area through the first hollow pipe 11, and the water body is then sprayed out by the water outlet end of the water pump 10 through the second hollow pipe 12. A number of spray heads 13 arranged in an array on the front and back outer walls of the second hollow pipe 12 evenly spray the water waves back into the breeding area. These water waves form the feeding signals for the fish. After the fish recognize the water wave signals, they will quickly swim towards the area where the water waves are generated and get ready to feed. Start the second motor 19 to drive the rotating rod 20 to rotate in the storage bin 15. The rotation of the rotating rod 20 quantitatively conveys the feed from the storage bin 15 to the discharging chute 23 through a specific mechanism such as a screw conveyor (although the specific details are not mentioned), and it slides down to the feeding area through the discharging slideway 24. With the continuous feeding of the feed and the continuous generation of the water waves, the fish start to feed under the guidance of the feeding signals. The operator can observe the feeding situation of the fish and the operating state of the feeding device and adjust the feeding quantity or the operating parameters of the water pump as needed. After feeding, turn off the first motor 2, the second motor 19 and the water pump 10, and clean the feeding device and the breeding area to prepare for the next feeding.
[0026] Among them, a storage granary 15 is installed on the top of the support platform 1. Two quantitative discharging mechanisms are fixedly installed on the right side of the storage granary 15. The two quantitative discharging mechanisms are designed to be symmetrically distributed front and back. The quantitative discharging mechanism includes a second motor 19 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the right side of the storage granary 15. A rotating rod 20 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the second motor 19. The left end of the rotating rod 20 extends into the storage granary 15 and is rotatably connected to the storage granary 15. A number of rectangular plates 21 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the storage granary 15. A discharging groove 23 is opened at the bottom of the storage granary 15. A discharging slideway 24 is fixedly installed on the front of the storage granary 15.
[0027] By installing two quantitatively discharging mechanisms symmetrically distributed front and back, the feeding device can achieve precise control of the feed delivery amount. Each quantitative discharging mechanism is driven by the second motor 19 to rotate the rotating rod 20 in the storage granary 15, and the feed amount for each feeding can be precisely adjusted, which helps to meet the different growth stages and nutritional requirements of fish and promotes the healthy growth of fish. The automated design of the quantitative discharging mechanism reduces the burden of manual feeding and improves the feeding efficiency. The operator only needs to set the feeding parameters, and the feeding device can automatically complete the feed delivery work without frequent manual operation. This not only saves labor costs but also reduces the feeding error caused by human factors. By precisely controlling the feeding amount, the feeding device can effectively reduce feed waste. In the traditional feeding method, due to the inability to precisely control the feeding amount, there are often situations of excessive or insufficient feed, resulting in feed waste or insufficient nutrition for fish. However, in this design, precise control of the feeding amount is achieved through the quantitative discharging mechanism, ensuring the effective utilization of feed.
[0028] Among them, two limiting grooves 5 are opened at the bottom of the support platform 1. Two limiting protrusions 6 are respectively fixedly installed on the tops of the two support frames 4. The two limiting protrusions 6 are respectively adapted to the corresponding limiting grooves 5 and are slidably connected to the corresponding limiting grooves 5.
[0029] Through the sliding connection between the limiting groove 5 and the limiting protrusion 6, the connection between the support platform 1 and the support frame 4 becomes more firm and stable. This design effectively prevents the support platform from shifting or shaking during use, thereby ensuring the overall stability of the feeding device and providing a safe and stable growth environment for fish.
[0030] Among them, rectangular grooves 7 are respectively opened at the bottoms of the two support frames 4. A number of arc-shaped rubber pads 8 are respectively fixedly installed on the inner walls of the two rectangular grooves 7.
[0031] The support frame 4 is used as an important load-bearing component of the feeding device, and its stability is directly related to the safety and use effect of the entire device. By opening a rectangular groove 7 at the bottom of the support frame 4 and installing an arc-shaped rubber pad 8, the contact area between the support frame and the wall of the breeding tank can be effectively increased, thereby enhancing the stability of the device and preventing tipping or damage caused by shaking or external force. The arc-shaped rubber pad 8 has good elasticity and shock-absorbing performance, and can absorb and disperse vibration energy during the operation of the device, reducing the noise and vibration generated by the operation of the water pump or the movement of other components. This not only provides a quieter and more comfortable living environment for ornamental fish, but also extends the service life of various components of the device.
[0032] Among them, a water pump 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the supporting platform 1, a hollow pipe 11 is fixedly installed on the water inlet end of the water pump 10, a hollow pipe 2 12 is fixedly installed on the water outlet end of the water pump 10, and a fixed block 14 is fixedly installed on the top of the supporting platform 1, and the hollow pipe 2 12 passes through the fixed block 14 and is fixedly connected to the fixed block 14.
[0033] By starting the water pump 10, the hollow tube 11 connected to its water inlet end sucks the water from the breeding area, and then the water is evenly sprayed back to the breeding area through the hollow tube 2 12 from the water outlet, thereby constructing an efficient water circulation and filtration system. The water waves generated by spraying liquid through the hollow tube 2 12 become feeding signals, which promote the domestication process of fish.
[0034] Among them, a plurality of nozzles 13 are respectively provided on the front and back outer walls of the hollow tube 12, and the plurality of nozzles 13 are designed to be distributed in an array.
[0035] Through the array-distributed nozzle design, unprecedented accuracy and efficiency are achieved in the feeding device for fish domestication. The water waves generated by the nozzle 13 spraying liquid become a natural feeding signal. They will quickly recognize and respond to this signal, and swim to the area where the water waves are generated, looking forward to the upcoming food. This feeding signal is not only intuitive and easy for fish to capture, but also helps to establish a conditioned reflex between the fish and the feeding device, thereby promoting the fish domestication process.
[0036] Among them, a cover plate 16 is hingedly installed on the top of the grain storage bin 15, a handle 17 is fixedly installed on the top of the cover plate 16, and a transparent glass window 18 is opened on the right side of the grain storage bin 15.
[0037] The hinged cover 16 design makes it very easy to open and close the grain storage bin 15. By simply lifting the handle 17, the operator can easily open the cover to clean, check or replenish the inside of the grain storage bin. The addition of the transparent glass window 18 allows the operator to intuitively check the storage status of the feed inside without opening the grain storage bin.
[0038] Wherein, belts 22 are wound around the outer walls of the two rotating rods 20, and the discharge chute 24 is communicated with the discharge slot 23.
[0039] By winding the belts 22 around the outer walls of the two rotating rods 20, this design ingeniously utilizes the principle of mechanical transmission to achieve continuous, uniform, and controllable feeding of the feed. As a transmission medium, the belts 22 have the characteristics of wear resistance and anti-tensile, and can ensure a stable feeding speed even during long-term operation, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of the feeding operation, which is beneficial to precise feeding management during the fish domestication process.
[0040] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model:
[0041] The operator first adjusts the position of the support frame 4 according to the size of the fish pond or the breeding area by controlling the operation of the first motor 2, so that the gear 3 gradually advances or retreats along the tooth grooves 9 on the support frame 4 until the support frame 4 is clamped with the breeding tank wall to ensure the stability of the feeding device. At the same time, check whether the feed quantity in the storage bin 15 is sufficient, and set the feeding parameters of the quantitative discharging mechanism as needed. Then start the water pump 10, whose water inlet end sucks the water body in the breeding area through the first hollow pipe 11, and the water body is then sprayed out by the water outlet end of the water pump 10 through the second hollow pipe 12. A plurality of spray heads 13 arranged in an array on the front and back outer walls of the second hollow pipe 12 evenly spray the water waves back into the breeding area. These water waves form the feeding signal for the fish. After the fish recognize the water wave signal, they will quickly swim towards the area where the water waves are generated to prepare for feeding. Start the second motor 19 to drive the rotating rod 20 to rotate in the storage bin 15. The rotation of the rotating rod 20 quantitatively conveys the feed from the storage bin 15 to the discharge slot 23 through a specific mechanism such as a screw conveyor (although the specific details are not mentioned), and it slides down to the feeding area through the discharge chute 24. With the continuous feeding of the feed and the continuous generation of the water waves, the fish start to feed under the guidance of the feeding signal. The operator can observe the feeding situation of the fish and the operation status of the feeding device, and adjust the feeding quantity or the operation parameters of the water pump as needed. After the feeding is completed, turn off the first motor 2, the second motor 19, and the water pump 10, and clean the feeding device and the breeding area to prepare for the next feeding.
