[0025] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the hole adjusting group comprises a first circular shell 6, the first circular shell 6 is in a hollow structure, a plurality of holes are arranged on the side of the first circular shell 6, the first circular shell 6 is in communication with the holes of the second circular shell 17, a first servo motor 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the first circular shell 6, a second gear 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first servo motor 9, a first gear 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the second circular shell 17, the first gear 8 is in meshing connection with the second gear 11, in use, when the first servo motor 9 is started, the output end of the first servo motor 9 drives the second gear 11 to rotate, because the second gear 11 is in meshing connection with the first gear 8 fixedly connected to the side of the first circular shell 6, so the rotation of the second gear 11 drives the first gear 8 to rotate, and then the second circular shell 17 rotates, when the second circular shell 17 rotates, the relative position and coincidence degree of the holes of the second circular shell 17 are changed, and then the number of coincidences and the opening size of the holes of the second circular shell 17 and the first gear 8 are realized, for example, when the holes of the first gear 8 and the second circular shell 17 are completely coincided, the channel through which the bait passes is the largest, and the throwing amount may be relatively large, when part of the holes are coincided or not coincided, the channel through which the bait passes is smaller, and the throwing amount is also correspondingly reduced, so that the bait can be uniformly thrown in different areas of the net cage, and the feeding demand of the fish at different positions in the net cage can be met.

The controller controls the working time of the quantitative dosing valve 4 and the second servo motor 16, and then more bait is put into the area where the fish school gathers. When it is detected that the fish school in the area is less, the fish school detectors 19 transmit the information to the controller. At this time, the controller reduces the working time of the quantitative dosing valve 4 and the second servo motor 16, and then precise feeding is realized, and the waste of bait is reduced.

[0028] The fish school detector 19 can be Deeper PRO, Deeper Chirp 26, etc. In use, the device can be connected through iOS and Android devices.
