The weight sensor in the feeding bin enables the device to accurately measure the weight of the feed in the feeding bin. With the intelligent control of the control board, it can ensure that the amount of feed fed each time reaches the preset standard, avoiding overfeeding or underfeeding. At the same time, a time schedule is preset on the control board to automatically feed the feed, precisely controlling the feeding amount and the number of feeding times, improving the utilization rate of the feed, reducing the need for manual monitoring and operation, and enhancing the automation level of the feeding process.

[0008] Preferably, a receiving hopper is arranged in the feeding bin. The receiving hopper is arranged above the weight sensor, and the feeding pipe is connected between the feeding bin and the receiving hopper.

[0009] By adopting the above-mentioned device, the receiving hopper is arranged above the weight sensor, enabling the weight sensor to directly measure the weight of the feed in the receiving hopper, thereby achieving precise control of the feed feeding amount.

[0010] Preferably, the control assembly further includes a first electromagnetic valve and a second electromagnetic valve. The first electromagnetic valve is arranged at the bottom opening of the storage bin for controlling the opening and closing of the storage bin.

[0029] The following further describes the present application in detail with reference to the Figures 1-3 accompanying drawings.

[0030] Embodiment:

[0031] An aquaculture feeding device, as Figures 1-2 shown, includes a support arm 1, a feeding assembly 2 and a control assembly 3. Among them, the support arm 1 includes a fixed arm 11 and a movable arm 12. The movable arm 12 is hinged to the top of the fixed arm 11, so that the movable arm 12 can rotate at a certain angle, and the hinge is fixed by bolts. Further, a fixed part 111 and a lifting part 112 are provided on the fixed arm 11. Among them, the fixed part 111 is sleeved under the lifting part 112, a driving cylinder 113 is installed in the fixed part 111, and the output shaft of the driving cylinder 113 is connected to the lifting part 112 to drive the lifting part 112 to perform lifting movement, so as to flexibly adjust the height of the entire feeding device to adapt to aquaculture areas of different heights.

[0032] As Figure 1 shown, the feeding assembly 2 is installed at one end of the movable arm 12 away from the fixed arm 11. The feeding assembly 2 includes a feeding bin 21, a storage bin 22 and a spreading bin 23. Among them, the feeding bin 21 is fixed to the top of the movable arm 12 for quantitatively feeding feed, and the storage bin 22 is installed above the feeding bin 21 for storing feed, and the bottom of the storage bin 22 is in an inverted conical structure to facilitate the outflow of feed. When the feed in the storage bin 22 is consumed, the storage bin 22 can be removed and replaced. In addition, the spreading bin 23 is located on one side of the feeding bin 21 and is communicated with the feeding bin 21, and the uniform spreading of feed is realized through the spreading bin 23.

[0033] As Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, the control component 3 includes a weight sensor 31, a control board 32, a first solenoid valve 33, and a second solenoid valve 34. Specifically, a receiving hopper 211 is provided in the feeding bin 21, and the weight sensor 31 is installed at the bottom of the receiving hopper 211 to detect the weight of the receiving hopper 211 in real time, so as to realize the quantitative feeding of feed. The first solenoid valve 33 is installed at the opening at the bottom of the storage bin 22 to control the opening and closing of the storage bin 22, so as to control the feed to flow from the storage bin 22 into the feeding bin 21. There is an opening at the bottom of the receiving hopper 211. The feeding bin 21 is connected to the spreading bin 23 through a feeding pipe 212, and the second solenoid valve is installed between the opening at the bottom of the receiving hopper 211 and the feeding pipe 212 to control the opening and closing of the feeding bin 21, so as to control the feed to flow from the feeding bin 21 into the spreading bin 23. In addition, the control board 32 is installed on the top of the movable wall. The weight sensor 31, the first solenoid valve 33, and the second solenoid valve are all electrically connected to the control board 32. The control board 32 controls the weight sensor 31, the first solenoid valve 33, and the second solenoid valve to realize the timed and quantitative feeding of feed.

[0034] During use, the specific feeding time is set through the control board 32. When the set time is reached, the control board 32 controls the first solenoid valve 33 to open automatically, while the second solenoid valve remains closed. The feed in the storage bin 22 falls into the receiving hopper 211. At the same time, the weight sensor 31 at the bottom of the receiving bin detects the weight of the receiving hopper 211 in real time. When the weight reaches the set value, the control board 32 controls the first solenoid valve 33 to close and opens the second solenoid valve, so that the feed in the receiving hopper 211 can flow into the spreading bin 23, realizing the accurate timed and quantitative feeding of feed, avoiding feed waste, and improving the efficiency and benefit of breeding at the same time.

[0035] As Figure 3 shown, in order to reduce the accumulation of feed at the bottom of the receiving hopper 211, the inner bottom surface of the receiving hopper 211 and the feeding pipe 212 are both set to be inclined, which is convenient for the feed to flow out from the opening, and avoids the uneven feeding caused by the accumulation of feed in the receiving hopper 211.

[0036] As Figure 3 shown, a spreading plate 231 is provided at the bottom of the spreading bin 23. The spreading plate 231 is semi-open, which is convenient for the feed to be scattered from the opening. A rotating blade 232 is installed on the spreading plate 231, and an electric drive motor 233 is fixedly installed at the top of the spreading bin 23. The rotating blade 232 is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor 233. When the drive motor 233 operates, the output shaft drives the rotating blade 232 to rotate, so as to evenly spread the feed to the breeding area.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, ensure that there is enough feed in the storage bin 22. Set the timed and quantitative feeding of the feed in advance through the control panel 32. When the set time is reached, the first solenoid valve 33 automatically opens, and the second solenoid valve remains closed. The feed in the storage bin 22 falls into the receiving hopper 211. At the same time, the weight sensor 31 at the bottom of the receiving bin detects the weight of the receiving hopper 211 in real time. When the weight reaches the set value, the first solenoid valve 33 closes, and the second solenoid valve opens, so that the feed in the receiving hopper 211 can flow into the spreading bin 23. The driving motor 233 is turned on to drive the rotating blade 232 to rotate, so as to evenly spread the feed to the aquaculture area. The aquaculture feeding device of the present application realizes the automatic feeding of the feed and the precise control of the quantity, ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of the feed feeding.
