[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fish farming, and in particular to a composite fish breeding reef. Background Art

[0002] Artificial reefs can improve and optimize the ecological environment of water bodies in fish farming, attracting and protecting fish and other marine life. By deploying artificial reefs, they provide habitats for marine life to thrive, reproduce, and feed, thereby increasing biodiversity and restoring and improving the seabed ecosystem.

[0003] During marine fish farming, algae can improve water quality, enhance the self-purification ability of the water body, and improve the environment for fish growth, while artificial reefs can provide shelter for fish.

[0004] Most of the existing artificial reefs only provide necessary shelter for fish. Algae are mainly attached to natural reefs on the seabed. In specific fish farming environments, an organic intersection between shelter and algae attachment cannot be formed.

[0005] Therefore, how to combine fish activity sites and algae attachment structures has certain economic value for fish proliferation or the proliferation and production of other marine delicacies. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a composite fish reproduction reef that can form an organic intersection of fish shelter and habitat and algae attachment and growth structure, improve the fish reproduction and growth environment, and maximize the economic value of the composite fish reproduction reef.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the utility model provides a composite fish breeding reef, including a breeding cage, wherein the breeding cage is composed of a plurality of frames surrounded and spliced ​​together, wherein the frames include a plane assembly frame arranged at the bottom of the breeding cage, and a three-dimensional assembly frame arranged above the plane assembly frame;

[0008] The frames are spliced ​​together to form the enclosed space of the breeding cage, and wire mesh is provided on the plane assembly frame and part of the three-dimensional assembly frame.

[0009] In an optional embodiment, the planar assembly frames are arranged on the same plane to form a seating plane for the proliferation cage, and the proliferation cage includes a multi-edge cage structure and is tilted between adjacent three-dimensional assembly frames.

[0010] In an optional embodiment, the frame includes separately arranged triangular frames, each of the triangular frames has the same shape, and the edges of the triangular frames are detachably spliced, or the edges of the triangular frames are welded.

[0011] In an optional embodiment, the triangular frame includes an attached wire mesh frame and a shuttle transparent frame, the wire mesh is arranged on the attached wire mesh frame, and the shuttle transparent frame includes a shuttle channel with a transparent structure located on the inner side.

[0012] In an optional embodiment, the wire mesh is installed in the thickness direction of the attached wire mesh frame, including a single layer located in the middle of the wall thickness direction, or including multiple layers located in different positions in the wall thickness direction.

[0013] In an optional embodiment, the shuttle transparent frames are staggered at intervals on the proliferation cage, any two of the shuttle transparent frames are not adjacent to each other, and the number of the attached wire mesh frames is greater than the number of the shuttle transparent frames.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, a support portion is further included, wherein the support portion includes a seating platform located at the top, and the breeding cage is placed on the seating platform through the planar assembly frame.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, the support portion includes a fish reef base, the fish reef base includes a base disc with a flat structure, and the breeding cage can be placed translationally on the base disc.

[0016] In an optional embodiment, the frame comprises a stainless steel frame, and the wire mesh comprises a stainless steel wire mesh welded to the frame.

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

These terms are intended solely to facilitate the description of this application and simplify the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" and the like are used solely for distinction and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0032] It should also be noted that, in the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "disposed" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, or internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] The composite fish reproduction reef in this application is mainly used for fish reproduction and production. By improving the structural form of existing artificial fish reefs, it promotes the formation of an organic combination of fish shelters and algae attachment and growth structures, thereby maximizing the economic efficiency of artificial fish reefs.

[0034] See also Figure 1 The composite fish breeding reef in the utility model has a main structure including a breeding cage 1, which is surrounded by multiple frames so that the enclosed chamber of the breeding cage 1 constitutes a shelter, habitat and reproduction place for fish. At the same time, it is beneficial to selectively set a wire mesh 2 on the frame of the breeding cage 1 to facilitate the attachment of algae and enhance the shelter and habitat effect.

[0035] The frame includes multiple parts, which are mainly divided into a plane assembly frame 11 arranged at the bottom of the breeding cage 1 and a three-dimensional assembly frame 12 arranged above the plane assembly frame 11 from a structural perspective. The plane assembly frame 11 is mainly used to form an installation platform for the breeding cage 1, and the three-dimensional assembly frame 12 is specifically connected to the plane assembly frame 11 to form an effective enclosed space for the breeding cage 1.

[0036] By splicing multiple frames together, an enclosed space of the breeding cage 1 can be formed to meet the survival needs of fish for shelter, habitat and reproduction. Combined with the arrangement of the wire mesh 2 on the plane assembly frame 11 and part of the three-dimensional assembly frame 12, it is convenient for algae to attach and grow at the bottom of the breeding cage 1, as well as on the side or top of the breeding cage 1, thereby forming an algae distribution in the three-dimensional space of the breeding cage 1, thereby achieving a composite proliferation effect of fish survival and algae attachment, greatly improving the living environment of fish and promoting high-quality production.

[0037] In order to enable the breeding cage 1 to be placed stably and reliably, and further enable it to withstand the impact of seabed water currents, the breeding cage 1 in the present invention is specifically a spatial structure form similar to a sphere, and the three-dimensional assembled frames 12 are arranged at an angle to each other to form a multi-sided cage structure. Through this arrangement, the direct impact force of the water flow on any frame surface on the breeding cage 1 can be reduced, and the water flow can be guided along the edges of the breeding cage 1, effectively preventing the breeding cage 1 from rolling.

[0038] At the same time, the planar assembly frame 11 at the bottom of the breeding cage 1 is arranged on the same plane, which can constitute the bottom seating plane of the breeding cage 1 and ensure that the breeding cage 1 is stably placed and installed.

[0039] The frame of the present invention includes triangular frames 3 that are separately arranged. Each triangular frame 3 has the same shape. Triangular frames 3 of similar shapes are assembled with each other to form a cage-like structure of the breeding cage 1 .

[0040] During the specific assembly process, the edges of the triangular frame 3 can be detachably spliced ​​to meet the needs of adjusting different types of frames, especially wire meshes 2 with different apertures, on the breeding cage 1.

[0041] At the same time, the edges of the triangular frames 3 can also be welded together, and after welding is completed, all the triangular frames 3 are fixedly assembled into a whole breeding cage 1.

[0042] Based on the breeding cage 1 in the utility model, it has the characteristics of taking into account both fish shelter and habitat and algae attachment and growth. The triangular frame 3 includes an attachment wire mesh frame 31 and a shuttle transparent frame 32. Specifically, the wire mesh 2 is installed on the attachment wire mesh frame 31. On the one hand, it is used to achieve the attachment of algae. This angle is the main factor for good growth of algae and improves the living environment of fish. On the other hand, it can also form a partial shielding of the internal space of the breeding cage 1. In the form of a semi-open structure, the fish can avoid natural enemies and improve their living conditions.

[0043] There is no wire mesh 2 on the shuttle transparent frame 32 , and the fish can shuttle through the channel of the shuttle transparent frame 32 to swim in the inner and outer spaces of the breeding cage 1 , which is beneficial for them to be sheltered, live and reproduce inside the breeding cage 1 .

[0044] The wire mesh 2 is installed along the thickness of the attachment wire mesh frame 31, and may include a single layer located in the middle of the wall thickness, or multiple layers located at different locations along the wall thickness. Regardless of the method, the purpose is to allow algae to attach and grow well, thereby improving the living conditions of fish. The specific configuration can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0045] Based on the fact that the present invention provides more growth basis for algae, and at the same time, in order to facilitate the fish to enter and exit the breeding cage 1 at different parts in the three-dimensional space, the shuttle transparent frames 32 are staggered at intervals on the breeding cage 1, and any two shuttle transparent frames 32 are not adjacent to each other. Furthermore, the number of attached wire mesh frames 31 is greater than the number of shuttle transparent frames 32, which can enhance the attachment and growth effect of algae while ensuring the normal shuttle of fish, and ensure the coverage area of ​​algae in the three-dimensional space.

[0046] The breeding cage 1 in the present invention needs to be placed stably on the seabed. The composite breeding fish reef also includes a support part 4 for supporting the breeding cage 1. Specifically, the support part 4 includes a seating platform at the top, and the breeding cage 1 is placed on the seating platform through a flat assembly frame 11 at the bottom.

[0047] See also Figure 2 The support part 4 includes a fish reef base, which includes a flat base disc 41, and the breeding cage 1 can be placed on the base disc 41 in a translational manner.

[0048] This arrangement is more suitable for flat seabed terrain, and allows the placement of the breeding cage 1 on the base disc 41 to be adjusted while ensuring its stable and reliable placement. During the specific arrangement process, the support portion 4 needs to have a counterweight effect to effectively and reliably support the breeding cage 1.

[0049] In order to prevent the breeding cage 1 from tipping over and avoid long-term corrosion on the seabed, the frame includes a stainless steel frame, which can enhance the counterweight of the breeding cage 1. At the same time, the wire mesh 2 includes a stainless steel wire mesh 2 welded to the frame, which can reduce corrosion and extend the service life.

[0050] It should be noted that, unless there is any conflict, the features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
