[0002] Photovoltaic power generation, as a major green and clean energy source, has gradually matured in my country in recent years. However, due to the unique characteristics of photovoltaic power generation, construction sites require significant land resources. Therefore, the photovoltaic industry is gradually shifting from land to near-shore and shallow water areas such as lakes and seas. Floating photovoltaic power generation can save land resources, develop the added value of water bodies, and enhance economic value. However, as the scale of offshore photovoltaic power generation increases, the required sea area gradually expands, leading to competition for sea area usage between photovoltaic power generation and marine aquaculture. Therefore, combining offshore photovoltaic power generation with marine aquaculture to utilize sea surface resources in multiple ways and improve the utilization rate of sea surface resources is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved.

[0031] The following is combined Figure 1 The technical solution of this utility model will be further illustrated through specific embodiments.

[0032] This utility model provides a marine ranch, comprising a floating unit, photovoltaic modules, an aquaculture unit, and a counterweight 4. The floating unit includes multiple spaced-apart floats 1, all floating on the sea surface. Photovoltaic modules are mounted on the floats 1 and generate electricity. The aquaculture unit includes multiple net cages 31, located at the bottom of the floats 1. The counterweight 4 is located at the bottom of the net cages 31. By placing the counterweight 4 at the bottom of the net cages 31, the marine ranch stabilizes the vertical structure of the net cages 31 and, in conjunction with the floats 1, enhances the overall stability of the ranch structure. By placing the photovoltaic modules above the aquaculture unit, not only are solar energy resources fully utilized, but photovoltaic power generation also supplies electricity to the aquaculture unit, thereby reducing aquaculture costs. Combining photovoltaic power generation with marine aquaculture fully utilizes sea surface resources and improves resource utilization efficiency.

[0033] In this embodiment, the photovoltaic module includes a photovoltaic support 21 and a photovoltaic panel 22. The photovoltaic support 21 is mounted on the float 1, and the photovoltaic panel 22 is mounted on the photovoltaic support 21. Further, the photovoltaic support 21 includes a first support and two second supports, which are spaced apart along a first direction. The first support is located between the two second supports, and the two second supports are located at opposite ends of the photovoltaic panel 22 along the first direction. Specifically, multiple photovoltaic panels 22 are provided, and each photovoltaic panel 22 is fixed to the float 1 by the first support and the two second supports. This arrangement ensures that the photovoltaic panel 22 is securely and reliably installed, thereby guaranteeing the performance of the photovoltaic panel 22. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first direction is consistent with the extension direction of the photovoltaic panel 22.

[0034] Furthermore, the floating body 1 includes a first floating body 11 and a second floating body 12. The first floating body 11 extends along a first direction, and the second floating body 12 extends along a second direction. Specifically, multiple first floating bodies 11 and multiple second floating bodies 12 are provided. Each first floating body 11 is perpendicular to multiple second floating bodies 12, and each second floating body 12 is perpendicular to multiple first floating bodies 11, so that the multiple first floating bodies 11 and multiple second floating bodies 12 form a mesh structure. The two ends of each first floating body 11 and each second floating body 12 are located at the top of the net cage 31. This arrangement ensures the stability of the entire floating unit structure, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the marine ranch. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the second direction is consistent with the extension direction of the width of the photovoltaic panel 22.

[0035] Furthermore, the float 1 also includes a connector, which is connected to the first float 11 and fitted onto the second float 12. The connector connects the first float 11 and the second float 12 to form a floating unit, which not only provides buoyancy to maintain the stability of the entire structure of the marine ranch, but also provides support for the photovoltaic modules.

[0036] Optionally, in this embodiment, the float 1 is a tubular structure. The tubular float 1 can provide sufficient buoyancy support for the floating unit, ensuring the stability and safety of the entire marine ranch. At the same time, the tubular float 1 is lightweight, making it easy to transport and install.

[0037] Furthermore, the net cage 31 includes a frame and a net. The net covers the perimeter and bottom of the frame to create a culture space inside the frame. Specifically, the net surrounds the perimeter and bottom of the frame, and the frame provides a stable support structure for the net, ensuring that the net will not deform or be damaged by external factors such as water flow or waves, thus guaranteeing the overall structural stability of the net cage 31. At the same time, the net surrounding the frame creates a culture space, allowing fish to grow in a relatively enclosed environment, reducing interference from the external environment, and helping to improve culture efficiency and yield.

[0038] In this embodiment, multiple net cages 31 are arranged in an array, with m rows along a first direction and n columns along a second direction, where m and n are both integers greater than 1, and the first and second directions are perpendicular. This arrangement ensures the stability of the entire marine ranch, and each net cage 31 forms an independent space, facilitating the differentiation of farmed species and the management of fish at different growth stages.

[0039] Furthermore, the aquaculture unit also includes multiple cleaning components 32, each corresponding to one of the multiple net cages 31. The cleaning components 32 are mounted on the float 1 and located at the opening of the net cage 31, and are used to clean the net cage 31. Specifically, the cleaning components 32 can remove algae attached to the net cage 31, as well as fish excrement, mud, and other substances accumulated inside the net cage 31, preventing the net cage 31 from becoming clogged and thus maintaining a healthy aquaculture environment.

[0040] Furthermore, the marine ranch also includes an energy storage unit 5, which is installed on the floating body 1. The energy storage unit 5 is used to store the electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic modules. By using photovoltaic modules to generate electricity, the electrical energy generated by multiple photovoltaic panels 22 can be directly used to power the aquaculture units when there is sufficient sunlight during the day. However, when there is insufficient sunlight at night, the energy storage unit 5 can be activated to use its stored electrical energy to ensure the normal operation of the aquaculture units.

[0041] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
