Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of deep-sea cage equipment, specifically to a connecting support device for deep-sea cages. Background Technology

[0002] Marine aquaculture is gradually developing from shallow waters in inner bays to open, deep waters. Due to the strong impact of waves in deep waters, it is necessary to connect multiple deep-water cages to improve their wind and sway resistance. Currently, most cages are connected by rope locks. Flexible or rigid connections are prone to breakage during long-term swaying of the cages.

[0003] Chinese invention patent application number 201510117213.7 discloses a self-propelled, wave-resistant deep-water cage, including a frame, a net, and a mooring component for fixing the cage in the water. The net is fixed to the frame and can be opened as the frame is opened. The mooring component is connected to the frame. In addition, the self-propelled, wave-resistant deep-water cage also includes a hydraulic propulsion device, which consists of a propeller, a hydraulic motor, a hydraulic circuit, a hydraulic pump, and a drive motor. The drive motor is connected to the hydraulic pump and drives the hydraulic pump to work. The hydraulic pump is connected to the hydraulic motor through the hydraulic circuit and drives the hydraulic motor to rotate. The hydraulic motor is connected to the propeller and drives the propeller to rotate in reverse.

[0004] The above solution can improve the wind and wave resistance of deep-water cages by connecting the mooring components to the frame. However, if the connection between the cages is not firm, they are prone to scattering when they move on their own, making supervision more difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to connect the cages to each other. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To better understand the structure, functional features, and advantages of this utility model, the preferred embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0024] Example:

[0025] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model provides a connecting support device for deep-sea cages, including a first sleeve 1 and a second sleeve 2. A first snap-fit ​​mechanism 3 is provided on the edge of the first sleeve 1, and a second snap-fit ​​mechanism 4 is provided on the edge of the second sleeve 2. The first snap-fit ​​mechanism 3 and the second snap-fit ​​mechanism 4 are movably snapped together. Multiple first sleeves 1 and multiple second sleeves 2 are alternately snapped together, forming a long connecting piece that connects two cages. To ensure a secure connection between the cages during use, multiple sets of connecting pieces composed of first sleeves 1 and second sleeves 2 can be used. A clamping mechanism 6 is fixedly connected to the first sleeve 1 near the cage. The two cages are clamped together by the clamping mechanism 6 and connected by the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2. The connecting piece formed by the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2 is fixedly connected to the clamping mechanism 6 near the edge of the two cages. The clamping mechanism 6 is fixed to the edge of the cage, thus connecting the two cages.

[0026] As another embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the first snap-fit ​​mechanism 3 of this application includes a snap-fit ​​plate 31, a sliding buckle 32, and a sliding groove 33. The snap-fit ​​plate 31 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first sleeve 1. The snap-fit ​​plate 31 is inclined and points towards the center of the first sleeve 1. The sliding groove 33 is opened along the length direction of the snap-fit ​​plate 31 on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate 31 near the inner wall of the first sleeve 1. The sliding buckle 32 slides in the sliding groove 33. The sliding buckle 32 is an arc-shaped plate with the same shape as the snap-fit ​​plate 31. The sliding groove 33 is a U-shaped groove, and the sliding buckle 32 is embedded in the sliding groove 33. The second snap-fit ​​mechanism 4 consists of several snap-fit ​​plates 41. The snap-fit ​​plates 41 are fixedly connected to both ends of the second sleeve 2 and located on the outer wall of the second sleeve 2. The snap-fit ​​plates 41 are inclined and point towards the center of the second sleeve 2. The length of the sliding buckle 32 is greater than the length of the snap plate 31. The length of the snap plate 31 is one-quarter of the circumference of the end of the first sleeve 1. Two symmetrically arranged snap plates 31 are fixedly connected to the end of each first sleeve 1. The length of the fastening plate 41 is equal to the gap between the two sliding buckles 32. The snap plates 31 and the fastening plate 41 are in opposite directions. During installation, the fastening plate 41 is inserted into the gap between the two sliding buckles 32. The fastening plate 41 rotates inside the first sleeve 1 so that it is behind the snap plate 31. Since the length of the sliding buckle 32 is greater than the length of the snap plate 31, the sliding buckle 32 can fill the gap between the snap plates 31, thus tightly connecting the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2.

[0027] As another embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, both the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2 of this application are composed of a thick tube 11 and a thin tube 12. The thin tube 12 slides inside the thick tube 11. A first snap ring 111 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the thick tube 11 near the end of the thin tube 12, and a second snap ring 121 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the thin tube 12 near the end of the thick tube 11. The first snap ring 111 and the second snap ring 121 are interlocked. Both the snap plate 31 and the fastening plate 41 have insertion holes 51, which extend and pass through the first sleeve 1 or the second sleeve 2. A pin 52 is movably connected to the insertion hole 51, and the length of the pin 52 is longer than the diameter of the first sleeve 1. The first snap ring 111 and the second snap ring 121 are in opposite directions. In use, the thicker second sleeve 2 is fastened inside the thicker first sleeve 1 by the fastening ring, and the thinner second sleeve 2 is fitted inside the thinner first sleeve 1. Once the insertion holes 51 on the snap-fit ​​plate 41 and 31 on the snap-fit ​​plate are aligned, insert the pin 52 to secure it. The pin 52 is a screw; after securing it, tighten the nut.

[0028] As another embodiment, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the clamping mechanism 6 of this application includes a clamping plate 61, a connecting block 62, and a threaded rod 63. The clamping plate 61 is an arc shape with symmetrical upper and lower sides. The connecting block 62 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 61. The lower clamping plate 61 and connecting block 62 are fixedly connected to the end of the first sleeve 1. The lower clamping plate 61 and connecting block 62 are threadedly connected to each other by the threaded rod 63. The connecting blocks 62 are fixed on both sides of the clamping plate 61. After aligning the upper clamping plate 61 with the lower clamping plate 61, the threaded rod 63 can be tightened to fix it.

[0029] The working principle of the connecting support device for deep-sea cages disclosed in this application is as follows: A clamping mechanism 6 is fixedly connected to the first sleeve 1 near the cage. Two cages are clamped together by the clamping mechanism 6 and connected by the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2. The connecting piece formed by the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2 is fixedly connected to the clamping mechanism 6 near the edge of the two cages. The clamping mechanism 6 is fixed to the edge of the cage, thus connecting the two cages. Specifically, the thicker second sleeve 2 is fastened to the thicker first sleeve 1 by a fastening ring, and the thinner second sleeve 2 is fitted into the thinner first sleeve 1. The fastening plate 41 is inserted into the gap between the two sliding buckles 32. The fastening plate 41 rotates within the first sleeve 1 so that the fastening plate 41 is behind the buckle plate 31. Since the length of the sliding buckle 32 is greater than the length of the buckle plate 31, the sliding buckle 32 can fill the gap between the buckle plate 31, thus tightly connecting the first sleeve 1 and the second sleeve 2. After aligning the insertion holes 51 on the snap-fit ​​plate 41 and 31 on the snap-fit ​​plate 31, insert the pin 52 to secure it. After aligning the upper clamping plate 61 with the lower clamping plate 61, tighten the threaded rod 63 to secure it.
