Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, specifically to a smart aquaculture feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, the demand for aquatic products continues to increase, leading to the expansion of aquaculture scale and a higher degree of intensification. To meet the market's large demand for aquatic products, farmers need to manage larger-scale aquaculture water bodies and more aquaculture organisms.

[0003] For example, an existing patent (publication number: CN215454756U) discloses a feeding device for intelligent aquaculture, including a feeding cylinder. The upper end of the feeding cylinder is provided with a discharge pipe at equal intervals around it, and a storage cylinder is connected to the lower surface of the feeding cylinder. The end of the storage cylinder is connected to a feeding hose, and the end of the feeding hose is connected to a discharge hopper. A sealing cover is pinned to the upper surface of the discharge hopper, and a fan is connected to the lower end of one side of the discharge hopper.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned intelligent aquaculture feeding equipment design still has some drawbacks in actual use: the above scheme feeds aquatic products by placing the feeding device in an area far from the shore, but the device has no power unit and can only drift with the water. It is difficult to release the feed at a designated location, making it difficult to flexibly release the feed, affecting the uniformity of feed distribution, and easily causing aquatic products to fight for the feed, increasing the chance of aquatic products being injured and affecting economic benefits.

[0005] To address these issues, we designed a smart aquaculture feeding device. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a smart feeding device for aquaculture to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a feeding device for intelligent aquaculture, including a counterweight and a float plate disposed outside the counterweight. A drive motor is disposed on the float plate, and a connecting column is connected to the drive end of the drive motor. A bevel gear one is connected to the connecting column, and a bevel gear two is meshed at one end of the bevel gear one. A horizontal plate is connected to the bottom surface of the float plate, and a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the horizontal plate. The bevel gear two is disposed on the rotating rod, and a propeller is connected to the other end of the rotating rod. The propeller is disposed in the water.

[0008] Furthermore, an air pump is installed on the float by screws. The air outlet of the air pump is connected to a connecting pipe, the other end of the connecting pipe is connected to an air pipe, the other end of the air pipe is connected to an air bladder, and valves are installed in both ends of the air pipe. The air bladder is located on the bottom surface of the float.

[0009] Furthermore, the floating plate is provided with a hopper and a tray. The bottom of the hopper is provided with a bottom plate. An electric push rod is connected to the bottom wall of the bottom plate. The other end of the electric push rod is installed on the tray. A support rod is also connected between the hopper and the tray. The center of the tray is arc-shaped. A discharge plate is connected to the outer periphery of the tray.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the hopper is tapered, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the diameter of the bottom plate is larger than the diameter of the bottommost part of the hopper. A rubber pad is also provided on the outer wall of the bottom plate, and the rubber pad abuts against the inner wall of the hopper.

[0011] Furthermore, the hopper is provided with a feed inlet, and a connecting block is threaded onto the feed inlet.

[0012] Furthermore, the top wall of the float is connected to a support column, and the other end of the support column is connected to the bottom surface of the material tray.

[0013] Furthermore, a column is connected to the top surface of the counterweight, and a flexible hose is wound around the column. The other end of the flexible hose is connected to the outer wall of the float plate, and a certain length is left between the flexible hose and the float plate.

[0014] Furthermore, a placement plate is connected to the top surface of the floating plate, the drive motor is mounted on the placement plate, and the drive motor is also provided with a waterproof coating.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: feed is loaded into the hopper, then the float is deployed into the water, the drive motor is started, which drives the connecting column and the first bevel gear on the connecting column to rotate, causing the second bevel gear to also drive the rotating rod to rotate, thereby driving the propeller to rotate in the water, thus generating driving force to propel the device to move in the water. The device is more flexible and faster when discharging feed, and improves the uniformity of feed discharging.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: when the device needs to change direction, by increasing or decreasing the amount of air in the two air bladders by the air pump, the device is prompted to tilt in the required direction to change direction, thereby further improving the flexibility of the device operation and improving the uniformity of feed delivery.

[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 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a feeding device for intelligent aquaculture, including a counterweight 1 and a float 4 disposed outside the counterweight 1. A drive motor 9 is disposed on the float 4, and the drive end of the drive motor 9 is connected to a connecting column 10. A bevel gear 1001 is connected to the connecting column 10. As the connecting column 10 rotates, the bevel gear 1001 also rotates synchronously. One end of the bevel gear 1001 is meshed with a bevel gear 1002. When the bevel gear 1002 receives the power transmitted by the bevel gear 1001, it will drive... The rotating rod 11 rotates around its own axis. A horizontal plate 401 is connected to the bottom surface of the float plate 4. The rotating rod 11 is rotatably connected to the horizontal plate 401. A bevel gear 1002 is set on the rotating rod 11. The other end of the rotating rod 11 is connected to a propeller 12. The propeller 12 is placed in the water. When the rotating rod 11 rotates, it will drive the propeller 12 to rotate in the water. When the propeller 12 rotates, it will exert a backward force on the water, while the water will generate a forward reaction force on the propeller 12 and the entire equipment, thereby pushing the feeding equipment to move on the water surface in a predetermined direction.

[0024] In practice, feed is loaded into the hopper 5, and then the float 4 is deployed into the water. The drive motor 9 is started, which drives the connecting column 10 and the bevel gear 1001 on the connecting column 10 to rotate. Since the bevel gear 1001 and the bevel gear 1002 are internally connected, when the bevel gear 1001 rotates, the bevel gear 1002 also drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate, so that the propeller 12 rotates in the water, thereby generating driving force to propel the device to move in the water. The device is more flexible and faster when discharging feed, and improves the uniformity of feed discharging.

[0025] See Figure 1 as well as Figure 4 As shown, an air pump 14 is installed on the float 4 by screws. The air outlet of the air pump 14 is connected to a connecting pipe 1401. The other end of the connecting pipe 1401 is connected to an air pipe 1402, which further guides the gas to the airbag 13. The other end of the air pipe 1402 is connected to the airbag 13. Valves are installed in both ends of the air pipe 1402. The inflation volume of the airbags 13 on both sides is adjusted by the valves so that the device can flexibly change direction. The airbag 13 is set on the bottom surface of the float 4.

[0026] In practice, when the device needs to change direction, the inflation volume of the two air bladders 13 is increased or decreased by the air pump 14, causing the device to tilt in the required direction and change direction. This further improves the flexibility of the device's operation and the uniformity of feed delivery. For example, when the device needs to turn to the right, the air pump 14 increases the inflation volume of the left air bladder 13 while decreasing the inflation volume of the right air bladder 13. As the left air bladder 13 expands, the amount of water it displaces increases, and the buoyancy generated also increases accordingly. Meanwhile, the right air bladder 13 shrinks in volume due to deflation, and the buoyancy decreases. This difference in buoyancy causes the device to tilt to the right, and under the propulsion of the propeller 12, the device will smoothly turn to the right.

[0027] It should be noted that a microcontroller is installed inside the support column 7. The microcontroller controls the opening and closing of the valve and the operation of the drive motor 9 and the electric push rod 8. Since this is existing technology, it will not be described in detail in this specification, nor is it shown in the figure.

[0028] See Figure 2 as well as Figure 4A feed hopper 5 and a feed tray 6 are provided on the float plate 4. A support column 7 is connected to the top wall of the float plate 4. The other end of the support column 7 is connected to the bottom surface of the feed tray 6. The feed hopper 5 has a feed inlet with a connecting block 501 threaded onto it. A bottom plate 503 is provided at the bottom of the feed hopper 5. An electric push rod 8 is connected to the bottom wall of the bottom plate 503. The other end of the electric push rod 8 is installed on the feed tray 6. When the bottom plate 503 moves upward, a gap is created between the bottom plate 503 and the interior of the feed hopper 5. The feed falls into the feed tray 6 through the gap. A support rod 502 is also connected between the feed hopper 5 and the feed tray 6. The center of the feed tray 6 is arc-shaped. When the feed falls from the feed hopper 5 into the feed tray 6, it will spread outward under the guidance of the arc-shaped center. A discharge plate 601 is connected to the outer periphery of the feed tray 6. The spread feed will be evenly distributed into the aquaculture water area through the discharge plate 601.

[0029] The bottom of the hopper 5 is tapered, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The diameter of the bottom plate 503 is larger than the diameter of the bottommost part of the hopper 5. A rubber gasket is also provided on the outer wall of the bottom plate 503, which abuts against the inner wall of the hopper 5. The presence of the rubber gasket provides a good seal, effectively preventing feed leakage when the bottom plate 503 closes the bottom of the hopper 5.

[0030] In practice, after the device is moved to the designated position, the electric push rod 8 is activated, causing the electric push rod 8 to move the bottom plate 503 upward. Since the diameter of the bottom plate 503 is larger than the diameter of the discharge port at the bottom of the hopper 5, and the bottom of the hopper 5 is a cone shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, when the bottom plate 503 moves upward, a gap will be generated between the bottom plate 503 and the interior of the hopper 5. The feed will fall into the feed tray 6 along the gap and then be released into the water through the discharge plate 601 to feed the aquatic animals.

[0031] See Figure 1 The top surface of the counterweight 1 is connected to the column 2. The counterweight 1 is set on the ground. A flexible hose 3 is wound around the column 2. The winding method can effectively store the flexible hose 3, preventing it from drifting in the water and getting tangled or damaged. It can also flexibly adjust the length of the flexible hose 3 according to actual needs. The other end of the flexible hose 3 is connected to the outer wall of the float 4. A certain length is left between the flexible hose 3 and the float 4.

[0032] See Figure 2 The top surface of the float 4 is connected to a placement plate, and the drive motor 9 is mounted on the placement plate. The drive motor 9 is also equipped with a waterproof coating. The drive motor 9 and the float 4 are connected by bolts. The waterproof coating is a polyurethane coating, which prevents moisture from contacting the equipment and prevents problems such as short circuits and corrosion caused by water intrusion, thus extending the service life of the equipment.

[0033] Working principle: Feed is loaded into the feed hopper 5, then the float 4 is deployed into the water. The drive motor 9 is started, driving the connecting column 10 and the bevel gear 1001 on the connecting column 10 to rotate. Since bevel gear 1001 and bevel gear 1002 are internally connected, when bevel gear 1001 rotates, bevel gear 1002 also drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate, causing the propeller 12 to rotate in the water, thereby generating driving force to propel the device to move in the water. The device is more flexible and faster when discharging feed, improving the uniformity of feed dispensing. After the device moves to the designated position, the electric push rod 8 is activated, causing the electric... Push rod 8 drives bottom plate 503 to move upward. Since the diameter of bottom plate 503 is larger than the diameter of the discharge port at the bottom of hopper 5, and the bottom of hopper 5 is a cone shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, after bottom plate 503 moves upward, a gap will be generated between bottom plate 503 and the interior of hopper 5. Feed will fall into feed tray 6 through the gap and then be put into the water through discharge plate 601 to feed aquatic animals. When the device needs to change direction, the inflation volume of the two air bags 13 is increased or decreased by the air pump 14 to make the device tilt in the required direction and change direction, further improving the flexibility of device operation and improving the uniformity of feed feeding.

[0034] The above are merely embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
