[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, specifically to a float for aquaculture. Background Technology
[0002] Aquaculture is a production activity involving the breeding, cultivation, and harvesting of aquatic plants and animals under human control. Floats, also known as fish floats, can float on the water surface. Whether it is marine aquaculture or freshwater aquaculture in rivers and lakes, floats are needed to support the aquaculture cages. At the same time, by connecting the floats, the underwater aquaculture area can be marked.
[0003] Currently, when using floats, hooks are usually installed on both sides of the lower end of the float for binding and connecting with the rope. The lower end of the rope is connected to the aquaculture net. Therefore, in order to improve the stability of the connection between the aquaculture net and the float, the hooks of the float are usually fixedly bound to the rope. This setting also means that when the float is damaged and needs to be replaced, the binding rope needs to be cut and disassembled with scissors. When replacing the float with a new one, the rope needs to be re-bound, which is quite troublesome.
[0004] Therefore, we have proposed a float for aquaculture to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a float for aquaculture, which solves the problem that, in the above-mentioned background art, the float's hook is usually fixedly bound to the rope. This method of setting also leads to the problem that when the float is damaged and needs to be replaced, the binding rope needs to be cut and disassembled with scissors, and when a new float is replaced, the rope needs to be re-bound, which is quite troublesome.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a float for aquaculture, comprising a floating component and connecting posts respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the floating component, wherein connecting components are respectively installed on both sides of the lower end of the floating component, the connecting components are configured to be connected with ropes, and a shielding component is threadedly installed in the middle of the upper end of the floating component, the shielding component is configured to be configured to shield the upper end of the floating component from sunlight.
[0007] The connecting assembly includes a support mechanism and a docking mechanism threaded to one end of the support mechanism. The threaded disassembly mechanism is configured to allow direct disassembly of the rope fitted inside the connecting assembly.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-3 A float for aquaculture includes a floating component 1 and connecting posts 2 respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the floating component 1. Connecting components 3 are respectively installed on both sides of the lower end of the floating component 1. The connecting components 3 are configured to be connected with ropes. A shielding component 4 is threadedly installed in the middle of the upper end of the floating component 1. The shielding component 4 is configured to block sunlight from the upper end of the floating component 1.
[0023] The connecting assembly 3 includes a support mechanism 31 and a docking mechanism 32 threadedly connected to one end of the support mechanism 31. The threaded disassembly mechanism 32 is designed to allow direct disassembly of the rope fitted inside the connecting assembly 3.
[0024] The support mechanism 31 includes an arc-shaped support rod 311 and a second threaded groove 312 formed on one side of the lower end of the outer wall of the arc-shaped support rod 311.
[0025] The docking mechanism 32 includes a support rod 321 and a through threaded groove 322 opened on the lower end of one side of the outer wall of the support rod 321. A long threaded rod 323 is threadedly connected to the inner cavity of the through threaded groove 322.
[0026] Connecting posts 324 are fixedly installed on both sides of one end of the long threaded rod 323. A ring 325 is fixedly installed on one end of the connecting post 324. A limiting plate 326 is fixedly installed on the other end of the long threaded rod 323. A short threaded rod 327 is fixedly installed on one end of the limiting plate 326. The limiting plate 326 is designed to prevent the long threaded rod 323 from unscrewing out of the inner cavity of the through threaded groove 322.
[0027] The short threaded rod 327 is threaded into the inner cavity of the second threaded groove 312, so that the support rod 321, the long threaded rod 323 and the arc-shaped support rod 311 form a U-shaped closed loop, thereby allowing the rope with the limit knot to be installed directly.
[0028] Arc-shaped support rod 311, support rod 321, long threaded rod 323, threaded post 43 and short threaded rod 327 are all components made of plastic.
[0029] In this embodiment: When connecting the rope and the float, the operator pre-knots the rope into a loop. By rotating the ring 325 in the reverse direction, the long threaded rod 323 rotates, causing it to unscrew from the inner cavity of the threaded groove 322. Simultaneously, the short threaded rod 327 disengages from the inner cavity of the second threaded groove 312. The knotted rope is then looped around one end of the long threaded rod 323. The ring 325 is then rotated in the forward direction, causing the long threaded rod 323 to rotate. As the long threaded rod 323 screws in, the short threaded rod 327 and the second threaded groove 312 are threaded and fixed, thus directly limiting and fixing the rope. This setup eliminates the need for the operator to damage the rope during disassembly; the telescopic rope can be disassembled simply by rotating the long threaded rod 323, making it convenient to use.
[0030] Example 2: This example is an improvement on Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 The floating assembly 1 includes a floating ball 11 and a first threaded groove 12 formed in the middle of the upper end of the floating ball 11. The first threaded groove 12 is configured to be threaded and to block the assembly 4 from being threaded.
[0031] The shielding component 4 includes a top disc 41 and reflective stickers 42 embedded around the upper part of the top disc 41. A threaded post 43 is fixedly installed at the lower center of the top disc 41. The threaded post 43 is configured to be threadedly connected to the first threaded groove 12. The reflective stickers 42 are configured to help the operator find the setting position of the float at night.
[0032] The top disc 41 is made of plastic, which does not increase the weight of the float and can block sunlight from reaching the top of the float.
[0033] In this embodiment, the top disc 41 is threaded to the upper middle part of the floating ball 11 through the threaded post 43 fixedly installed at its lower end. Since there is no obstruction on the lake surface in daily life, the upper part of the floating ball 11 is exposed to direct sunlight all year round when it floats on the water. By setting the top disc 41 to shield the upper part of the floating ball 11, the direct sunlight on the floating ball 11 can be reduced, thereby improving the service life of the floating ball 11.
[0034] Working principle: When connecting the rope and the float, the operator first knots the rope into a loop. By rotating the loop 325 in the reverse direction, the long threaded rod 323 rotates, causing it to unscrew from the inner cavity of the threaded groove 322. Simultaneously, the short threaded rod 327 disengages from the inner cavity of the second threaded groove 312. The knotted rope is then looped around one end of the long threaded rod 323. The loop 325 is then rotated in the forward direction again, causing the long threaded rod 323 to rotate. While screwing in, the short threaded rod 327 and the second threaded groove 312 are threaded and fixed, thereby directly completing the limit fixation of the rope. This setting does not require the operator to damage the rope when disassembling it. The telescopic disassembly can be completed directly by rotating the long threaded rod 323. The top disc 41 is threaded to the upper middle part of the floating ball 11 through the threaded post 43 fixedly installed at its lower end. The setting of the top disc 41 blocks the upper end of the floating ball 11, which can directly reduce the direct sunlight on the floating ball 11.
