[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of breeding cage cleaning and washing, in particular to a breeding cage cleaning and washing machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] It is known that in the breeding mode of scallops, oysters and other aquatic products, breeding cages are commonly used. The breeding cage is provided with a partition plate in a cylindrical net, which divides the net into several layers, and scallop seedlings or oyster seedlings are put in each layer, and then the breeding cage is hung vertically below the sea surface.
[0003] With the use of the breeding cage, other aquatic organisms will attach and breed on the surface of the breeding cage, especially in the seawater environment, it is easy to attach barnacles and enteromorpha organisms, which block the pores of the breeding cage, affect the water exchange inside and outside the breeding cage, cause oxygen deficiency and environmental deterioration in the cage, and ultimately cause the death of the breeding organisms. After the aquatic organisms attach to the breeding cage, the self-weight of the breeding cage will also greatly increase. In order to remove the attachments on the surface of the breeding cage, the breeding cage usually needs to be cleaned after a breeding cycle. The cleaning method of the prior art is to use a high-pressure water gun to flush manually, which has high labor intensity and poor cleaning effect. The existing mechanical cleaning method generally squeezes the attachments on the breeding cage by guide rollers to break them, but manual shaking and flushing are still needed after breaking, which wastes manpower. SUMMARY

[0020] As shown in the attached figure, a cage cleaning machine is provided, comprising a frame 1, with the two ends of the frame 1 respectively serving as a feeding end and a discharging end. The machine is characterized by having a compression roller group 2, a shaking roller group 3, a cage unfolding mechanism 4, a rinsing mechanism 5, and a cage unloading mechanism 6 between the feeding end and the discharging end of the frame 1. The compression roller group 2 is installed at the feeding end of the frame 1 and compresses the attachments on the cages. The shaking roller group 3 is installed behind the compression roller group 2 and shakes the compressed cages. The cage unfolding mechanism 4 is installed on the frame 1 behind the shaking roller group 3 to unfold and pull the shaken cages. The rinsing mechanism 5 is installed on the frame 1 outside the cage unfolding mechanism 4 to clean the unfolded cages. The cage unloading mechanism 6 is installed on the frame 1 behind the cage unfolding mechanism 4 to unload the cages that have passed the tail end of the cage unfolding mechanism 4.
[0021] Furthermore, the extrusion roller group 2 includes an upper extrusion roller 7 and a lower extrusion roller 8, which are rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the shafts of the upper extrusion roller 7 and the lower extrusion roller 8 are connected to the output end of the drive mechanism.

The vibrating upper roller 9 or the vibrating lower roller 10 is a non-circular roller, and the shafts of the vibrating upper roller 9 and the vibrating lower roller 10 are respectively connected to the output end of the drive mechanism.
[0023] Furthermore, the cross-section of the vibrating upper roller 9 or the vibrating lower roller 10 is set to square, and the roller surfaces of the vibrating upper roller 9 and the vibrating lower roller 10 are staggered.
[0024] Furthermore, a guide roller 11 is installed on the frame 1 between the shaking roller group 3 and the spreading cage mechanism 4. The guide roller 11 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the shaft of the guide roller 11 is connected to the output end of the drive mechanism.
[0025] Furthermore, the cage unfolding mechanism 4 includes a front roller shaft 12, a rear roller shaft 13, a transmission chain 14, and cage unfolding hooks 15. The front roller shaft 12 and the rear roller shaft 13 are rotatably connected to the frame 1. Gears 23 are respectively installed in the middle of the front roller shaft 12 and the rear roller shaft 13. The two ends of the transmission chain 14 are respectively sleeved on the gears 23 of the front roller shaft 12 and the rear roller shaft 13. Cage unfolding hooks 15 are distributed on the outer side of the transmission chain 14. The front roller shaft 12 or the rear roller shaft 13 is connected to the output end of the drive mechanism. The cage unfolding hooks 15 hook the net of the breeding cage after the shaking roller group 3 shakes and unfolds it.
[0026] Furthermore, the cage hook 15 includes a blocking rod 16 and an insert rod 17. The blocking rod 16 is U-shaped, with its open end connected to the transmission chain 14 and the middle of its closed end connected to the insert rod 17. The insert rod 17 is curved and hooks the net of the breeding cage through the insert rod 17. The U-shaped blocking rod 16 also prevents the insert rod 17 from being inserted into the round hole of the partition plate of the breeding cage.
[0027] Furthermore, the rinsing mechanism 5 includes a rinsing pipe 18, rinsing nozzles 19, and a high-pressure pump 20. The high-pressure pump 20 is fixed on the frame 1, and the outlet of the high-pressure pump 20 is connected to the rinsing pipe 18. The rinsing pipe 18 is arranged on the frame 1 on both sides of the cage spreading mechanism 4, and the rinsing nozzles 19 are distributed on the rinsing pipe 18.
[0028] The rinsing mechanism 5 and the cage unfolding mechanism 4 are equipped with outer shells, which are fixed to the frame. The bottom of the outer shells is connected to a water guide pipe, through which the wastewater after rinsing is discharged.
[0029] Furthermore, the cage unloading mechanism 6 includes a cage unloading shaft 21 and a cage unloading deflector 22. The cage unloading shaft 21 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The cage unloading shaft 21 is located on the front side of the rear roller shaft 13 of the cage spreading mechanism 4 and passes through the transmission chain 14. The cage unloading deflector 22 is installed on the cage unloading shaft 21 on both sides of the transmission chain 14. The cage unloading shaft 21 drives the cage unloading deflector 22 to rotate, thereby removing the breeding cages that have passed the position of the cage unloading deflector 22.
[0030] In the implementation of the above scheme, the driving mechanism for the extrusion roller group 2, the shaking roller group 3, and the guide roller 11 is a drive motor, which is driven by the drive motor. The front roller shaft 12 or the rear roller shaft 13 and the unloading shaft 21 are also driven by the drive motor. The driving mechanism of this patent is an existing installation method (not shown in the figure), and its specific connection relationship is prior art, which will not be described in detail here. In the implementation process, the extrusion roller group 2 is provided with at least two sets, with the upper extrusion roller 7 and the lower extrusion roller 8 rotating in opposite directions. The extrusion of each set of extrusion roller group 2... Both the upper pressure roller 7 and the lower extrusion roller 8 have extrusion protrusions on their surfaces. While the extrusion roller group 2 cleans the cages by squeezing them, it also pulls the cages towards the vibrating roller group 3. The squeezed cages then enter between the upper vibrating roller 9 and the lower vibrating roller 10 of the vibrating roller group 3. The upper and lower vibrating rollers 9 and 10 rotate in opposite directions. Because the upper and lower vibrating rollers 9 and 10 are non-circular, they tumble the cages that have passed through them, crushing them during the tumbling process. The attached materials are shaken off, and the shaken breeding cages enter the cage unfolding mechanism 4 via the guide roller 11. The cage unfolding hooks 15 in the cage unfolding mechanism 4 are inserted into the net of the breeding cage by the drive chain 14, but not into the spacer plate of the breeding cage. The insertion rod 17 of the cage unfolding hook 15 bends in the direction of movement of the cage unfolding hook 15. After hooking the net of the breeding cage, the cage unfolding hook 15 moves backward. The cage unfolding hooks 15 on the drive chain 14 hook onto the breeding cages in sequence and unfold the breeding cages. During the unfolding process of the breeding cages, the high-pressure pump 20 of the rinsing mechanism 5 operates. The cleaning nozzle sprays water onto the unfolded breeding cage to clean it. After cleaning, the cage passes through the unloading mechanism 6 driven by the transmission chain 14. The unloading plate 22 of the unloading mechanism 6 rotates to disengage the cage net from the unfolding hook 15. Then, the unfolding hook 15 is sequentially disengaged from the cage net, completing the entire cleaning process of the breeding cage. Due to the above structure, this utility model has the advantages of simple structure, good cleaning effect, high cleaning efficiency, and low labor intensity.
