Detailed Description of the Embodiment

[0022] The following further describes the present application in detail Figure 1 with reference to the attached drawings.

[0023] An automatic feeding and windproof marine net cage, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, it includes a cage 1 and a floating body 2. The floating body 2 is specifically a floating barrel. An aquaculture area for breeding marine organisms is formed inside the cage 1. An activity frame 3 is fixedly arranged on the top of the floating body 2. The activity frame 3 is circumferentially rotatably connected to the floating body 2. The activity frame 3 includes a top frame 4, a connecting rod 5 and a bottom frame 6 that are fixedly connected to each other from top to bottom. The connecting rod 5 is inclined and is fixedly connected to the top frame 4 and the bottom frame 6 at both ends respectively. The bottom frame 6 is fixed on the floating body 2. A plurality of connecting rods 5 are evenly distributed around the circumference. In addition, a feed hopper 7 for storing feed is fixedly arranged on the top of the top frame 4. The feed hopper 7 is located directly above the aquaculture area. The bottom of the feed hopper 7 has a discharge port 8 and a solenoid valve 9 is arranged at the discharge port 8. The discharge port 8 can be opened and closed by remotely controlling the solenoid valve 9.

[0024] As Figure 1 shown in the figure, a feed trough 10 extending in the length direction is arranged on the connecting rod 5. The top end of the feed trough 10 is communicated with the discharge port 8. At the same time, a vertically penetrating through hole 11 is opened on the bottom wall of the feed trough 10. The through hole 11 is used for the feed to pass through. A plurality of through holes 11 are spaced along the length direction of the feed trough 10. In this way, when feeding is required, only need to open the solenoid valve 9 so that the feed in the feed hopper 7 is discharged through the discharge port 8 and shunted into the feed troughs 10 of each connecting rod 5, and then slide down under its own gravity and fall into the cage 1 through each through hole 11, achieving the purpose of automatically feeding into the cage 1. The feeding operation is simple and convenient, and the feed falls from each through hole 11, effectively improving the uniformity of feeding.

[0025] As Figure 1 shown in the figure, a vertical rod 12 is fixedly arranged on the top of the top frame 4. The vertical rod 12 passes through the feed hopper 7 and a wind wheel 13 is fixedly arranged at the top end. In this way, under the action of the wind on the ocean, the wind wheel 13 is driven to rotate. The rotation of the wind wheel 13 drives the whole activity frame 3 to rotate. In this way, the position of the through hole 11 changes continuously, further improving the uniformity of feeding. Moreover, rotation can be achieved without an additional drive source, effectively saving energy and reducing costs.

[0026] As Figure 1 shown in the figure, a stirring blade 14 is rotatably connected to the vertical rod 12 corresponding to the inside of the feed hopper 7. The stirring blade 14 is movably connected to the vertical rod 12. During the rotation of the vertical rod 12 and the feed hopper 7, the relative position between the stirring blade 14 and the feed can change, so as to achieve the purpose of dispersing the feed, making it more convenient for the feed to fall stably. The top of the feed hopper 7 has an opening and a cover plate 15 detachably connected to it is arranged at the opening to block foreign impurities and rainwater from entering the feed hopper 7. The cover plate 15 is fixed to the feed hopper 7 by screws. The vertical rod 12 vertically passes through the cover plate 15 and a sealing ring is arranged at the connection to improve the sealing performance.

[0027] As Figure 1As shown in the figure, a vertically penetrating blanking port 16 is provided at the bottom end of the feed trough 10. The diameter of the blanking port 16 is larger than the aperture of the through hole 11. In this way, when some feed in the feed trough 10 does not completely fall through the through hole 11, the feed can ultimately fall into the net cage 1 through the blanking port 16, avoiding the situation of feed residue in the feed trough 10.

[0028] As Figure 1 shown in the figure, a ring groove 17 is formed at the top of the floating body 2. At the same time, a roller 18 slidably connected in the ring groove 17 is provided at the bottom of the movable frame 3, effectively reducing the frictional resistance and enabling the movable frame 3 to rotate circumferentially more smoothly.

[0029] As Figure 1 shown in the figure, the net cage 1 includes a top box 19 and a bottom box 20. The bottom box 20 is sleeved at the bottom of the top box 19. The bottom wall of the top box 19 is penetrated. The bottom box 20 is vertically slidably connected to the top box 19. In addition, a cylinder 21 for driving the vertical lifting of the bottom box 20 is provided on the floating body 2. The cylinder 21 is vertically arranged and symmetrically arranged. In this way, when the wind force is relatively large, the bottom box 20 can be driven by the cylinder 21 to descend to increase the vertical length of the net cage 1 under the sea surface, thereby improving the stability of the net cage 1 and enhancing the wind and wave resistance of the offshore net cage 1. Moreover, the aquaculture area inside the net cage 1 is expanded at the same time.

[0030] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application. The protection scope of this application is not limited accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
