[0002] Since shellfish food is rich in various nutrients such as protein, vitamin B12, iron, zinc, selenium, etc., and shellfish food is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, which helps to reduce cholesterol levels and the risk of heart disease and stroke. Therefore, shellfish are deeply loved by people and have a large market in China. Obviously, relying solely on naturally growing shellfish is not enough. Therefore, professional farming of shellfish is required.
[0003] However, in the existing shellfish farming, generally shellfish are placed in a pool or the sea for static farming. The shellfish cannot move, and the food, dissolved oxygen, and salinity obtained by shellfish at different heights are not uniform, which will affect their growth. Moreover, the outer ends of the static shellfish are prone to adhering dirt, which will also affect the growth of shellfish.
[0004] To solve this technical problem, the utility model proposes a multifunctional shellfish farming device. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a multifunctional shellfish farming device, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

Specific embodiments
[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and functions of the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0024] As Figures 1-5 shown, a multi-functional shellfish breeding device includes an upper fixing plate 1. A driving wheel 2 is rotatably connected inside the upper fixing plate 1. The upper fixing plate 1 is used to support the driving wheel 2. A waterproof motor 3 is connected to the side end of the upper fixing plate 1. The waterproof motor 3 has good waterproof effect, so as to avoid being affected by water vapor and causing a short circuit. The driving end of the waterproof motor 3 is connected to the axis of the driving wheel 2. Thus, starting the waterproof motor 3 can drive the driving wheel 2 to rotate. A support rod 4 is connected to the lower end of the upper fixing plate 1. The lower end of the support rod 4 is connected to a lower fixing plate 5. A driven wheel 6 is rotatably connected inside the lower fixing plate 5. The lower fixing plate 5 is used to support the driven wheel 6. A crawler belt 7 is arranged at the outer ends of the driving wheel 2 and the driven wheel 6. A groove is formed in the inner circle of the crawler belt 7. Protrusions are arranged at the outer ends of the driving wheel 2 and the driven wheel 6. The protrusions can be connected to the groove of the crawler belt 7. Thus, when the driving wheel 2 rotates, it can drive the driven wheel 6 to rotate and drive the crawler belt 7 to move.
[0025] A fixed semi-ring 8 is connected to the side end of the crawler belt 7. A rotating semi-ring 9 is rotatably connected to the side end of the fixed semi-ring 8. A lock piece 10 is connected to the side ends of the fixed semi-ring 8 and the rotating semi-ring 9. A breeding cage 11 is arranged inside the fixed semi-ring 8 and the rotating semi-ring 9. Water permeable grooves are formed in both the fixed semi-ring 8 and the rotating semi-ring 9, so that there will be no water accumulation inside the two. The fixed semi-ring 8 and the rotating semi-ring 9 can be spliced to form a ring. The breeding cage 11 is located inside the ring. The lock pieces 10 of the fixed semi-ring 8 and the rotating semi-ring 9 are arranged correspondingly. A round hole is formed inside the lock piece 10. A bolt is connected inside the round hole. Rotate and open the rotating semi-ring 9, then place the breeding cage 11 into the fixed semi-ring 8, and then rotate and close the rotating semi-ring 9. Connect the two lock pieces 10 together through the bolt, so that the breeding cage 11 can be fixed inside the fixed semi-ring 8 and the rotating semi-ring 9.
[0026] Start the waterproof motor 3, which will drive the driving wheel 2 to rotate, thereby driving the driven wheel 6 to rotate and the crawler 7 to move. Thus, it will drive the breeding cage 11 to move through the fixed half-ring 8 and the rotating half-ring 9. The rotation speed of the waterproof motor 3 is slow, so the moving speed of the crawler 7 is also slow.
[0027] The side end of the support rod 4 is connected with a mounting plate 12. The mounting plate 12 is located below the upper fixing plate 1. Installation holes are provided on both sides of it. The mounting plate 12 can connect multiple such devices together. The mounting plate 12 can be connected to a ship or a floating board, which can fix the whole device. The mounting plate 12 is at the water level, the upper fixing plate 1 is above the water surface, and the lower fixing plate 5 is below the water surface. Thus, when the breeding cage 11 moves following the crawler 7, it can be periodically exposed above the water surface.
[0028] The upper end of the mounting plate 12 is connected with a support frame 17. The upper end of the support frame 17 is connected with a solar panel 18. The support frame 17 is used to support and fix the solar panel 18. A battery block is arranged at the upper end of the mounting plate 12. A waterproof shell is arranged outside the battery block, so that the battery block will not be damaged by water. The battery block is connected to the solar panel 18 through a wire. The solar panel 18 converts light energy into electrical energy and stores it in the battery block, thereby providing power for the whole device. The waterproof motor 3 and the battery block are located below the solar panel 18. Thus, the solar panel 18 can also protect the waterproof motor 3 and the battery block from wind and rain, thereby improving the service life of both.
[0029] The upper end of the upper fixing plate 1 is connected with a support ring 13. A water delivery pipe 14 is connected inside the support ring 13. The support ring 13 is used to support and fix the water delivery pipe 14. The water delivery pipe 14 is located above the breeding cage 11. A water spray head is arranged at the lower end of the water delivery pipe 14, and the water spray head sprays water downward, which can spray and wash the breeding cage 11. The lower end of the mounting plate 12 is connected with a water pump 15. A filter screen is arranged at the water suction port at the lower end of the water pump 15. The filter screen is used to prevent foreign objects from entering the water pump 15. The water outlet at the upper end of the water pump 15 is connected with a connecting pipe 16. The connecting pipe 16 is connected to the water delivery pipe 14. Starting the water pump 15 can pump water. The water will be injected into the water delivery pipe 14 through the connecting pipe 16 and finally sprayed into the breeding cage 11 through the water spray head, thereby washing the breeding cage 11 and the shellfish inside it.
