Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and more specifically, to a device for outdoor pond culture of the triangular sail mussel. Background Technology
[0002] As a common bivalve mollusc, the *Swimmy ferruginea* has specific environmental requirements for growth, and traditional extensive farming methods such as suspended culture have revealed many shortcomings. When the stocking density is too high, the ferruginea crowd each other, which not only hinders their growth but also leads to localized water oxygen depletion and intensified food competition, thereby reducing farming efficiency and threatening the survival rate of the ferruginea. To optimize existing farming conditions and improve the growth efficiency of *Swimmy ferruginea*, this invention presents a specially designed device for *Swimmy ferruginea* farming. This device is ingeniously designed and has a simple structure, creating a stable and suitable growth environment, providing strong support for the cultivation of *Swimmy ferruginea*. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a device for outdoor pond culture of Triangular Sail Mussels, which has the characteristics of low equipment cost, small footprint and long service life, so as to improve the convenience and efficiency of culture.
[0004] This utility model provides a device for outdoor pond culture of *Triplophysa bream*, including a frame, a float, and a handle. The frame contains a culture trough with its opening facing upwards. The frame has multiple water passages communicating with the culture trough, and the diameter of the water passages is smaller than the outer diameter of the *Triplophysa bream*. The float is connected to the outer wall of the top of the frame and is used to float the frame in the culture pond. The handle is connected to the frame.
[0005] Preferably, the float comprises a foam float and a plastic shell, the plastic shell being wrapped around the outside of the foam float.
[0006] Preferably, the plastic shell and the frame are connected together by adhesive bonding or welding.
[0007] Preferably, the diameter of the water passage hole is 1-1.5 cm.
[0008] Preferably, the aquaculture tank is provided with a plurality of partitions, which are spaced apart and used to divide the aquaculture tank into multiple aquaculture sub-tanks.
[0009] Preferably, the partition plate is provided with a plurality of through holes, which are used to connect adjacent aquaculture sub-tanks.
[0010] Preferably, the frame is a rectangular frame structure, with a floating block on each of the left and right sides of the frame, and a handle on each of the front and back sides of the frame.
[0011] Preferably, both the frame and the handle are made of plastic.
[0012] Preferably, the handle is provided with an anti-slip structure.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the device for outdoor pond culture of *Hylocereus undatus* (a type of freshwater mussel) proposed in this application has the following advantages:
[0014] (1) The frame of this utility model can provide sufficient space. The large capacity of the culture tank provides enough growth space. By setting multiple culture sub-tanks and setting the culture density reasonably, the frame can accommodate more triangular sail mussels at the same time, which can increase the yield without affecting the growth of the triangular sail mussels.
[0015] (2) The water passage design of this utility model allows the triangular sail mussels in the culture tank to fully exchange with the water in the culture pond, ensuring the stability of water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH and other conditions, which is conducive to the normal growth of the triangular sail mussels.
[0016] (3) This utility model has an extremely long service life. The float is made of foam wrapped in plastic. The plastic shell protects the foam from direct contact with water, reducing the risk of foam mold growth and thus extending the service life of the float.
[0017] (5) The handle of this utility model is made of plastic, which is lightweight and facilitates the handling of the frame.
[0018] In summary, this invention demonstrates significant advantages in the field of *Swimmus edulis* (sail mussel) aquaculture. Its ingenious design provides ample growth space for the mussels, with its water-permeable design being particularly brilliant, effectively maintaining stable water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and pH levels, creating an extremely favorable environment for mussel cultivation. The uniquely designed foam float provides the frame with just the right amount of buoyancy, allowing the mussels to fully absorb sunlight and obtain sufficient oxygen. The plastic-encased foam structure successfully extends the frame's lifespan, ensuring stable performance over a longer period. Furthermore, the device is simple in structure, easy to use, and simple to operate and maintain. All materials used are environmentally friendly, causing no pollution to water quality and posing no safety hazards, fully aligning with the concept of green aquaculture. Its low manufacturing cost makes it highly advantageous in large-scale production and application scenarios, generating significant economic and social benefits. Overall, this invention effectively overcomes many problems existing in traditional aquaculture methods, significantly improves aquaculture efficiency and quality, and has extremely broad application prospects and promotional value in the aquaculture industry of the triangular sail mussel. It is expected to become an important innovative force to promote the development of this field. Attached Figure Description
