Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent feeding machine technology, specifically an intelligent feeding machine for precise feeding of freshwater fish. Background Technology

[0002] Freshwater fish feeding refers to the process of artificially providing food to farmed freshwater fish in a freshwater aquaculture environment. This process is a crucial step in freshwater aquaculture, directly affecting the fish's growth rate, health status, and economic benefits. Scientific and rational feeding techniques can improve feed conversion rates, reduce waste, lower costs, and ensure good water quality, creating a suitable living environment for the fish. Feeding machines are used in the freshwater fish feeding process.

[0003] Chinese Utility Model Patent Application No. CN202122952850.X discloses a pneumatic feeder for fish ponds. The feeder uses a blowing mechanism to generate a high airflow to blow the feed pellets, which in turn causes the feed pellets to be ejected under the action of the airflow. This avoids direct collision of the feed pellets, effectively reduces the breakage of the feed pellets during the feeding process, and improves the practicality of the device.

[0004] While the aforementioned patents achieve the function of feeding, the fixed position of the ventilation duct during use leads to concentrated feed distribution, making it difficult to distribute evenly. This can cause fish to huddle together and fight for the feed, resulting in injuries, making it inconvenient to use. Therefore, we propose a smart feeder for precise feeding of freshwater fish. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a smart feeder for precise freshwater fish feeding. It solves the problem that the fixed position of the air duct during use leads to concentrated feed distribution, making it difficult to distribute evenly and causing fish to huddle together and fight for the feed, resulting in injury and inconvenience.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A freshwater fish precision feeding intelligent feeder includes a base, a turntable rotatably connected inside the base, a protrusion fixedly connected to one side of the turntable, a rotating shaft rotatably connected inside the base and to one side of the turntable, a connecting frame for cooperating with the protrusion fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft, a housing fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft, the housing rotatably connected to the base, a storage trough inside the housing, a connecting shaft rotatably connected inside the storage trough, a guide roller fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting shaft, a guide frame fixedly connected at equal intervals inside the housing and below the guide roller, a fixing frame fixedly connected at equal intervals to one side of the housing, a spraying frame fixedly connected to one end of the fixing frame, and an air inlet duct on one side of the spraying frame; high-speed airflow can blow out feed, thereby scattering the feed; the rotating shaft can drive the housing to swing, thereby causing the spraying frame to swing during the scattering process, making the feed scattering range wider.

[0008] Preferably, the base is internally rotatably connected to a drive shaft, and the turntable is fixedly connected to the drive shaft, which drives the turntable to rotate.

[0009] Preferably, a drive motor is fixedly connected inside the base, and the output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the drive shaft, so that the drive shaft is rotated by the drive motor.

[0011] Preferably, the feed guide roller has equidistant placement grooves inside, which can be used to temporarily store feed and facilitate the quantitative feeding of feed into the feed guide frame.

[0012] Preferably, the top of the spraying frame is fixedly connected to a feeding frame that works in conjunction with the guide frame. The feeding frame can work in conjunction with the guide frame to allow the feed to fall and enter the spraying frame.

[0013] This invention provides an intelligent feeder for precise feeding of freshwater fish. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0014] 1.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0024] A freshwater fish precision feeding intelligent feeder includes a base 1. A turntable 9 is rotatably connected inside the base 1. A protrusion 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the turntable 9. A rotating shaft 11 is rotatably connected inside the base 1 and to one side of the turntable 9. A connecting frame 10, which mates with the protrusion 14, is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 11. A housing 4 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 11. The housing 4 is rotatably connected to the base 1. A storage trough 3 is provided inside the housing 4. A connecting shaft 17 is rotatably connected inside the storage trough 3. A guide roller 15 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting shaft 17. A guide frame 5 is fixedly connected at equal intervals inside the housing 4 and below the guide roller 15. A fixing frame 8 is fixedly connected at equal intervals to one side of the housing 4. A spray nozzle is fixedly connected to one end of the fixing frame 8. The feed container 7 has an air inlet duct 16 on one side. When feeding freshwater fish, feed is placed inside the storage trough 3. The feed guide roller 15 is rotated by the connecting shaft 17, causing the feed to fall into the guide frame 5 and then into the feed container 7. The air inlet duct 16 is connected to an external fan, which blows air into the feed container 7. The high-speed airflow blows the feed out, thus scattering the feed. The turntable 9 drives the protrusion 14 to rotate, and the rotation of the protrusion 14 drives the connecting frame 10 to swing. The connecting frame 10 drives the box 4 to swing through the rotating shaft 11, thus causing the feed container 7 to swing during the scattering process, making the feed scattering range wider and the feeding effect more uniform.

[0025] Furthermore, a drive shaft 13 is rotatably connected inside the base 1, and the turntable 9 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 13, so that the turntable 9 is driven to rotate by the drive shaft 13.

[0026] Furthermore, a drive motor 12 is fixedly connected inside the base 1, and the output end of the drive motor 12 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 13, so that the drive shaft 13 is rotated by the drive motor 12.

[0027] Furthermore, a servo motor 2 is fixedly connected to the outside of the housing 4. The output end of the servo motor 2 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 17, and the connecting shaft 17 is rotated by the servo motor 2.

[0028] Furthermore, the feed guide roller 15 has equidistant placement grooves 18 inside, which can be used to temporarily store feed and make it convenient to put the feed quantitatively into the feed guide frame 5.

[0029] Furthermore, a feed frame 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the spraying frame 7 to work with the guide frame 5. The feed frame 6 can work with the guide frame 5 to allow the feed to fall and enter the spraying frame 7.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] When feeding freshwater fish, place the feed into the storage trough 3, start the servo motor 2, which drives the guide roller 15 to rotate via the connecting shaft 17, causing the feed in the placement trough 18 to fall into the guide frame 5 and then down to the feeding frame 6. The feed then enters the spraying frame 7. Connect the air inlet pipe 16 to an external fan to blow air into the spraying frame 7. The high-speed airflow blows the feed out, thus scattering it. Start the drive motor 12, which drives the turntable 9 to rotate via the drive shaft 13. The turntable 9 drives the protrusion 14 to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting frame 10 to swing. The connecting frame 10, via the rotating shaft 11, causes the housing 4 to swing, thus causing the spraying frame 7 to swing during the scattering process. This results in a wider scattering range, more uniform feeding, and easier operation.
