Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lobster breeding, in particular to a feeding device for lobster breeding. Background Art
[0002] In the lobster farming industry, ensuring that lobsters receive adequate and balanced nutrition is one of the key factors in improving farming efficiency and lobster quality.
[0003] For a long time, many lobster farms have manually spread feed directly into the aquaculture waters. While this method ensures that feed covers a larger aquaculture area, allowing more lobsters to access food, its significant drawback is its high labor intensity. Farmers need to regularly spread feed over large areas, which is not only labor-intensive and demanding, but also increases labor costs.
[0004] To reduce the intensity of manual labor, another common feeding method is to set up fixed feeding points and concentrate the feed at these specific locations. The advantage of this method is that it is easy to operate and easy to manage and monitor feed consumption. However, its inherent limitation is that the feeding area is too concentrated, causing lobsters to gather in a limited number of areas to compete for food. This highly concentrated foraging behavior not only increases the competitive pressure among lobsters, but may also affect the growth rate and health of lobsters due to overcrowding, such as increasing the risk of disease transmission, reducing the lobster's activity space and natural foraging habits, and ultimately being detrimental to the overall growth and development of lobsters.
[0005] For this reason, we propose a feeding device for lobster farming. Utility Model Content

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 4 The utility model proposes a technical solution, a feeding device for lobster farming, comprising: two reel assemblies 1, a steel wire rope 3 is wound around the winding ends of the two reel assemblies 1, a floating plate 2 is fixedly connected between the opposite ends of the two steel wire ropes 3, and a feed feeding assembly is installed on the top of the floating plate 2;
[0027] The reeling and winding assembly 1 includes a table 11, and fixed rods are fixed at the four corner ends of the bottom of the table 11. A winding reel 13 is rotatably installed on the top of the table 11 through a bracket, and the wire rope 3 is wound and installed in the winding cavity of the winding reel 13. A lifting drive assembly is fixed on the table 11 and located on the side of the winding reel 13 close to the floating plate 2, and the movable end of the lifting drive assembly is located at the bottom of the table 11. A U-shaped frame 19 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable end of the lifting drive assembly, and a guide wheel 2 110 for limiting the wire rope 3 is rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame 19, and a through hole is opened on the top of the table 11 for the wire rope 3 to pass through.
[0028] The feed is poured into the feed bin 4, and the two reel components 1 cooperate with the wire rope 3 to pull the feed bin 4 from one side of the breeding pond to the other side, across the water surface of the entire breeding pond. In addition, while the feed bin 4 moves, the feed is also simultaneously thrown into the breeding pond, which can automatically and evenly distribute the feed to the entire breeding area, improve feed utilization, reduce breeding costs, ensure that the lobsters are evenly distributed in the breeding pond, avoid excessive concentration of lobsters, and effectively reduce manual labor intensity.
[0029] A driving motor 12 for driving the winding reel 13 to rotate is installed on the top of the table 11 through the machine chamber, and the driving end of the driving motor 12 is connected to the shaft end of the winding reel 13. A power supply and a controller are installed inside the machine chamber. The process of winding the wire rope 3 by the winding and unwinding assembly 1 is as follows: the U-shaped material distribution pipe 42 drives the winding reel 13 in forward and reverse directions to realize the winding and unwinding operation of the wire rope 3.
[0030] A wheel frame 17 is installed on the top of the table 11 and on one side close to the guide wheel 2 110. The top of the wheel frame 17 is rotatably installed with a guide wheel 16, and the wire rope 3 is guided into a "Z" shape by the guide wheel 16 and the guide wheel 2 110. The wire rope 3 is guided and limited by the guide wheel 16 and the U-shaped frame 19, which is used to improve the smoothness of the winding and unwinding of the wire rope 3, which is beneficial to avoid the winding and blockage of the wire rope 3.
[0031] The lifting drive assembly includes a lifting plate 18 fixed to the top of the U-shaped frame 19, a screw rod 15 is rotatably installed on one side of the top of the lifting plate 18 through a bearing, and a threaded hole is provided on the top of the table 11 to be threadedly connected to the screw rod 15, and a knob is installed on the top of the screw rod 15.

Under the vertical threaded transmission action of the screw rod 15 and the threaded hole on the table 11, the screw rod 15 is vertically lifted and lowered, thereby driving the lifting plate 18 to perform corresponding lifting and lowering movements, thereby adjusting the height of the guide wheel 2 110, and adjusting the height of the wire rope 3 near one end of the floating board 2, and adjusting it to be in the same straight line with the floating board 2, so that the wire rope 3 is in a flat pulling state with respect to the floating board 2, thereby ensuring the stability of the floating board 2 in moving on the water surface, and the wire rope 3 can also be adaptively adjusted according to the rise and fall of the water surface.
[0032] The feed feeding assembly includes a T-shaped column 47 rotatably mounted on the top of the floating plate 2, and a feed bin 4 is welded to the top of the T-shaped column 47 through a vertical column. A feed port is provided on one side of the top of the feed bin 4, and a coaxial feed pipe 41 is welded to the discharge end of the bottom of the feed bin 4. A U-shaped spray pipe 43 is fixed at the center of the circle on the top of the T-shaped column 47 through a pad column. A feed port is provided on the upper side of both ends of the U-shaped spray pipe 43, and a U-shaped distribution pipe 42 is welded between the feed ports of the two ends of the U-shaped spray pipe 43, and the discharge end of the feed pipe 41 is welded to the feed port at the top of the U-shaped distribution pipe 42.

[0033] A driving motor 3 49 is fixed at the center of the circle on the top of the feed bin 4, and a vertical shaft 410 is installed on the driving end of the driving motor 3 49, and the bottom end of the vertical shaft 410 is located inside the feeding pipe 41, and a spiral blade 411 is welded to one end of the vertical shaft 410 located inside the feeding pipe 41. The driving motor 3 49 drives the spiral blade 411 to rotate and put the feed inside the feed bin 4 into the U-shaped spray pipe 43 for spraying. On the one hand, the feeding amount of the feed can be controlled more accurately, and on the other hand, whether the feed is put into the U-shaped spray pipe 43 can be freely controlled. Moreover, both ends of the U-shaped spray pipe 43 can spray feed, and feed can be sprayed to both sides of the breeding pond at the same time, with a wide feeding range and high efficiency.

The driving end of the driving motor 2 44 is installed with a gear 45 meshing with the circular rack 46. When the U-shaped spraying pipe 43 feeds, the gear 45 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 2 44. Under the meshing transmission action of the gear 45 and the circular rack 46, since the circular rack 46 is in a stationary state, the T-shaped column 47 is driven in the reverse direction to rotate, thereby driving the U-shaped spraying pipe 43 to rotate. Therefore, under the action of the forward and reverse rotation of the driving motor 2 44 driving the gear 45, the U-shaped spraying pipe 43 can be in a reciprocating rotation and swinging state, thereby improving the effect of the U-shaped spraying pipe 43 in spreading feed.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model is:
[0036] When in use, the two reel assemblies 1 are installed on both sides of the aquaculture pond, and the floating board 2 is placed in the aquaculture pond. In the initial state, the floating board 2 is located on the shore, and the feed is poured into the feed bin 4;
[0037] The reel assembly 1 on one side reels the steel wire rope 3 thereon, and the reel assembly 1 on the other side reels the steel wire rope 3 thereon, so that the floating board 2 can be pulled on the water surface of the aquaculture pond, and the floating board 2 can be pulled from one bank to the other bank;
[0038] When the floating board 2 moves on the water surface, the driving motor 3 49 drives the spiral blade 411 to rotate via the vertical shaft 410, feeding the feed in the feed bin 4 into the feeding pipe 41 in a quantitative manner. Under the action of gravity, the feed eventually falls into the U-shaped distribution pipe 42, and then falls into the two ends of the U-shaped distribution pipe 42 and finally enters the two ends of the U-shaped spraying pipe 43.
[0039] At the same time, the fan 48 delivers airflow to the middle of the U-shaped spray pipe 43, and the airflow is evenly distributed to the two ends of the U-shaped spray pipe 43. When the feed falls into the ends of the U-shaped spray pipe 43, the airflow blows the feed out of the U-shaped spray pipe 43 and into the fish pond. The distance that the feed falls into the fish pond is controlled by the size of the airflow pumped by the fan 48.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
