Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oyster farming technology, and in particular to a buoyancy ball for oyster farming. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous expansion of oyster farming and the increasing demands for farming efficiency, traditional seabed farming methods are gradually becoming insufficient to meet the needs. For example, seabed oyster farming is greatly limited by natural factors such as seabed topography, substrate, and water flow. The growth environment of oysters is difficult to control precisely, and harvesting is challenging. This has prompted people to seek more efficient farming methods, such as raft farming, and buoyancy balls are one of the key components of raft farming. However, the buoyancy devices made from existing buoyancy balls used in oyster farming are easily corroded and cannot effectively resist the impact of wind, waves, and water flow, resulting in decreased buoyancy or even damage, low durability, and inability to be used for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a buoyancy ball for oyster farming.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a buoyancy ball for oyster farming, comprising a support column, the inner side of which is a hollow structure, and buoyancy plates are fixedly connected at equal intervals around the lower side of the support column; a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the middle part of the outer arc surface of the buoyancy plate, bolt holes are provided on both sides of the fixing plate, and the protruding end of the buoyancy ball is installed between the fixing plates, and the fixing plate fixes the protruding end of the buoyancy ball by fixing bolts.
[0005] Preferably, all the buoyancy balls are hollow structures, and each buoyancy ball has annular raised patterns fixed to its outer side at equal intervals.
[0006] Preferably, the support column is provided with sliding grooves at equal intervals around its perimeter, and three limiting grooves are provided at equal intervals along the upper and lower sides of the support column. One end of the limiting groove is connected to the sliding groove. A cover is hinged to the upper end of the support column, and a fixing buckle is fixed to one side of the cover. The fixing buckle is fixed to the upper end of the support column by bolts.
[0007] Preferably, a cross rod is slidably fixed inside the groove, and through holes are equally spaced around the cross rod. A rotating rod is hinged to the upper middle part of the cross rod, and the two ends of the rotating rod are slidably installed inside the limiting groove.
[0008] Preferably, each of the through holes has a clamp at its upper end, and each of the clamps has a breeding rope fixedly connected to its lower end.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this utility model, the clamping seat fixes the aquaculture rope, which facilitates the provision of an attachment place for oysters, improves the efficiency of aquaculture, and thus increases the oyster yield per unit area of water. Furthermore, the buoyancy ball and annular convex texture facilitate the provision of stable and reliable buoyancy to the aquaculture device and prevent seawater corrosion and water flow impact, thereby improving the stability of oyster aquaculture. This enables the aquaculture device to adapt to the marine environment and stably cultivate oysters. Finally, it solves the problem of low durability of buoyancy balls in oyster aquaculture, which prevents long-term use. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Example 1: See Figure 1-5This utility model discloses a buoyancy ball for oyster farming, comprising a support column 1, the inner side of which is hollow, and buoyancy plates 2 are horizontally and equidistantly fixed around the lower side of the support column 1. The support column 1 facilitates a stable working state for the buoyancy ball as a whole. Fixing plates 15 are fixed to the upper and lower ends of the middle part of the outer arc surface of the buoyancy plate 2. Bolt holes are opened on both sides of the fixing plates 15, and the protruding ends of buoyancy balls 4 are installed between the fixing plates 15. The fixing plates 15 are fixed to the protruding ends of buoyancy balls 4 by fixing bolts 14, and the buoyancy balls 4 facilitate the provision of buoyancy for the whole. The buoyancy balls 4 are all hollow, and annular ridges 3 are fixed to the outer side of each buoyancy ball 4 at equal intervals. The annular ridges 3 facilitate the resistance to sea waves and prevent marine organisms from parasitizing on the buoyancy balls 4.
[0019] In this utility model, the support column 1 has equidistant sliding grooves 5 around its perimeter, and three limiting grooves 6 are equidistantly provided along the upper and lower sides of the support column 1. One end of the limiting groove 6 is connected to the sliding groove 5. A cover 10 is hinged to the upper end of the support column 1, and a fixing buckle 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the cover 10. The fixing buckle 12 is bolted to the upper end of the support column 1. The limiting grooves 6 and the sliding grooves 5 facilitate the movement and fixation of the cross rod 7 between the sliding grooves 5. The cross rod 7 is slidably fixed inside the sliding grooves 5. Through holes 13 are equidistantly provided around the cross rod 7, and a rotating rod 11 is hinged to the upper end of the middle of the cross rod 7. The two ends of the rotating rod 11 are slidably fixed inside the limiting grooves 6. The working height of the cross rod 7 can be easily adjusted by the rotating rod 11. A clamp 8 is installed at the upper end of each through hole 13, and an aquaculture rope 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end of each clamp 8. The clamp 8 and the aquaculture rope 9 facilitate the provision of position for oyster farming.
[0020] Working principle: When this utility model is used, the support column 1 first provides a stable working state for the whole. Then, the buoyancy plate 2, the fixing plate 15, and the bolts 14 are used to fix the buoyancy ball 4. The buoyancy ball 4 provides buoyancy for the whole. The annular ridge 3 prevents marine organisms from parasitizing the buoyancy ball 4. The sliding groove 5 and the limiting groove 6 facilitate the sliding and fixing of the cross rod 7. The cross rod 7 and the rotating rod 11 facilitate the adjustment of the overall height and position of the device. The cover 10 and the fixing buckle 12 facilitate the control of the opening and closing of the support column 1. The through hole 13 and the clamp 8 facilitate the fixing of the aquaculture rope 9. The cover 10 closes the support column 1 and prevents the cross rod 7 from falling out. The fixing buckle 12 fixes the cover 10.
