Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of crayfish feeding, and particularly to an automatic crayfish feeder. Background Art
[0002] Crayfish, also known as Procambarus clarkii, red-clawed crayfish, and freshwater crayfish, have an absolute competitive advantage in the local ecological environment due to their omnivorous diet, fast growth rate, and strong adaptability. During commercial farming, strict prevention of escape is required, especially into pristine water bodies that are rarely visited by humans. In recent years, crayfish have become an important economic aquaculture species in China. During the cultivation of crayfish, feeding is required to ensure the normal feeding and growth of crayfish.
[0003] Regarding the related technologies mentioned above, the inventor believes that the existing crayfish feeders cannot achieve uniform and synchronous feeding to both sides during feeding, which affects the feeding efficiency of the feeder. Moreover, during feeding, the lobster feed needs to be evenly placed in the aquaculture pond. The existing feeders cannot automatically move the feeding position at a constant speed, resulting in uneven placement of the lobster feed and thus reducing the convenience of using the feeder. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an automatic crayfish feeder to improve the problems that it cannot achieve uniform and synchronous feeding to both sides during feeding and cannot automatically move the feeding position at a constant speed.
[0005] The automatic crayfish feeder provided by this application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] The automatic crayfish feeder includes a chassis. The inner wall of the chassis is fixedly connected with a bottom plate. A stepper travel module is jointly arranged on the lower inner wall and below of the bottom plate. The top end of the chassis is fixedly connected with a connecting shell. The inner wall of the connecting shell is fixedly connected with a connecting barrel, and a feeding barrel is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting barrel. A spraying module is jointly arranged inside the feeding barrel, on the lower inner wall of the connecting shell, and on the top end of the bottom plate.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, both the connecting barrel and the connecting shell play a connecting role, and the feeding barrel is convenient for containing the lobster feed to be used. Through the setting of the stepper travel module structure, it is convenient for the position of the feeding port to move at a constant speed during feeding, so as to make the lobster feed more evenly placed. The spraying module is convenient for synchronous feeding to both sides, so as to improve the feeding efficiency of the feeder.
[0008] Optionally, the spraying module includes a material distribution pipe. The bottom end of the material distribution pipe is fixedly connected to the top end of the bottom plate. The top end of the material distribution pipe penetrates through the bottom end of the connection shell. An installation plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the material distribution pipe. A first motor is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the installation plate. The output end of the first motor penetrates through the bottom end of the installation plate and is fixedly connected to a connecting rod. The top end of the connecting rod penetrates through the bottom end of the material distribution pipe and is fixedly connected to a screw rod. The screw rod is located on the inner walls of the material feeding bucket and the material distribution pipe respectively. The top end of the screw rod is fixedly connected to a stirring rod. The bottom end of the material feeding bucket penetrates through the top end of the material distribution pipe. Vertical plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the top end of the bottom plate. And a blower is fixedly connected to one end of each of the two vertical plates. The output ends of the two blowers respectively penetrate through both ends of the material distribution pipe.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the first motor drives the screw rod to rotate, which can push the materials in the material feeding bucket downward. The stirring rod can prevent the materials from being blocked above. The blower can blow the materials in the material distribution pipe to make them spray more evenly, achieving the effect of efficient feeding.
[0010] Optionally, the step travel module includes a vertical plate. The bottom end of the vertical plate is fixedly connected to the top end of the bottom plate. A second motor is fixedly connected to one end of the vertical plate. The output end of the second motor penetrates through one end of the vertical plate and is fixedly connected to a first gear. A second gear is meshed with the outer surface of the first gear. Bearing seats are fixedly connected to both sides of the top end of the bottom plate. And a bearing rod is rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two bearing seats together. The second gear is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the bearing rod. First travel wheels are fixedly connected to both ends of the bearing rod. A connecting frame is fixedly connected to the top end of the bottom plate. And second travel wheels are rotatably connected to both ends of the connecting frame through rotating shafts.

One ends of the two first travel wheels and the two second travel wheels are respectively in rolling contact with one ends of the opposite surfaces of the two guide rails.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the second motor drives the first gear to rotate, and then drives the second gear to rotate. The rotation of the second gear in cooperation with the bearing rod and the bearing seat makes the two first travel wheels rotate synchronously. Then the first travel wheels and the second travel wheels roll on the guide rails, realizing the movement of the whole feeder, facilitating feeding at different positions, and improving the feeding effect of the feeder.
[0012] Optionally, the inner wall shape of the connecting bucket is the same as the outer surface shape of the material feeding bucket. A sealing cover is movably clamped at the top end of the connecting bucket.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the same shape is beneficial to the tight connection between the connecting barrel and the feeding barrel, and the sealing cover can prevent the materials from being contaminated or affected with damp in the connecting barrel, ensuring the quality of the materials.
[0014] Optionally, one side of the bottom end of the chassis is provided with a touch screen body, and one side of the top end of the chassis is provided with control buttons for use in conjunction with the touch screen body.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the control buttons cooperate with the touch screen body to facilitate making a variety of feeding formulas and can flexibly feed according to the growth cycle of crayfish.
[0016] Optionally, a charging module is fixedly connected to the upper inner wall of the chassis, and a guiding member for use in conjunction with the stepping stroke module is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the bottom plate.

[0018] Optionally, the material distribution pipe is in an "eight" shape, and the lower parts of both ends of the material distribution pipe respectively penetrate through the inner walls on both sides of the chassis.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the "eight"-shaped material distribution pipe is beneficial to the dispersion of materials therein, and the penetration of both ends through the inner walls on both sides of the chassis facilitates the spraying of materials to different positions, improving the coverage range of feeding.
[0020] Optionally, photoelectric sensors are fixedly connected to both sides of the top end of the bottom plate, and limit baffles for use in conjunction with the photoelectric sensors are fixedly connected to both sides of the top end of one of the guide rails.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the photoelectric sensors and the limit baffles can accurately control the moving range of the stepping stroke module. When the photoelectric sensors detect the limit baffles, the motor can be controlled to stop or change direction to prevent the device from exceeding the specified operating range.
