Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of greenfin filefish farming, and more specifically, it relates to an automatic feeding machine for greenfin filefish farming. Background Technology
[0002] The greenfin filefish, commonly known as the filefish, belongs to the order Tetraodontiformes, family Tetraodontidae, and genus Tetraodon. It is a warm-temperate, near-bottom fish distributed in the Northwest Pacific Ocean. It has a unique appearance, with an elongated oval body that is laterally compressed. The head is relatively small, and the mouth is small and located at the front. The scales are small and velvety. It is named for the green rays of its dorsal and anal fins. The flesh is tender, high in protein, and rich in unsaturated fatty acids. It can be eaten fresh or processed into dried fish, canned fish, etc. It is one of the important economic fish species in my country, with stable market demand. Artificial breeding technology has gradually matured, and it has become a characteristic aquaculture species in coastal areas with high economic benefits. Adult fish mainly feed on benthic crustaceans, mollusks, small fish, and organic detritus. In artificial breeding, they can also consume formulated feed.
[0003] In the farming of greenfin filefish, it is necessary to use a breeding pond for them. Currently, the farming process of greenfin filefish in breeding ponds usually adopts artificial feeding. However, artificial feeding has the following problems: artificial feeding requires feeding multiple times a day, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, artificial feeding is prone to uneven scattering of feed, which will cause the fish to concentrate on feeding, deteriorate the water quality in some areas, and affect their feeding and growth.
[0004] Therefore, an automatic feeding machine for greenfin pufferfish farming is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic feeding machine for greenfin pufferfish farming, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding machine for greenfin pufferfish farming, comprising a farming pond, two fixed support plates fixedly installed on one side of the farming pond, a transmission assembly fixedly installed on the upper surface of the two fixed support plates, a movable support plate provided on one side of the transmission assembly, a feeding hopper fixedly embedded on the upper surface of the movable support plate, a quantitative electric valve fixedly connected to the outer surface of the feeding hopper, a feeding assembly provided above the feeding hopper, a distributing cover fixedly connected to the bottom end of the feeding hopper, a drive motor fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the distributing cover, a rotating shaft fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor, multiple rotating baffles fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating shaft, and two distributing mesh plates fixedly embedded on the outer surface of the distributing cover.

[0008] Preferably, a second variable frequency motor is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the feeding hopper, a drive shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the second variable frequency motor, and a spiral blade is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the drive shaft.
[0009] Preferably, two support plates are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the aquaculture pond. A slide rail is fixedly installed on one side of the two support plates that are close to each other. Two sliding blocks are slidably connected to the outer surface of the slide rail. The sides of the two sliding blocks that are close to each other are fixedly installed to the outer surface of the movable support plate.
[0010] Preferably, a support plate is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable support plate, the upper surface of the support plate is fixedly installed with the outer surface of the hopper, and a bearing ring is fixedly embedded in the inner bottom wall of the material distribution cover, the inner ring of the bearing ring is fixedly connected with the outer surface of the rotating shaft.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this automatic feeder for greenfin pufferfish farming can store a large amount of feed through a feeding hopper. In addition, the rotation of the spiral blades driven by a second variable frequency motor can automatically convey the feed downwards, avoiding feed blockage. The rotation of the rotating baffle inside the distribution hood by the drive motor can make the feed evenly sprinkled through the distribution mesh, thus achieving uniform distribution without continuous manual intervention, reducing labor input and improving feeding efficiency.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this automatic feeder for greenfin filefish farming uses a first variable frequency motor to drive the rotation of the transmission screw, which, in conjunction with the transmission slider, drives the moving support plate to make the feeding hopper and the feed distribution hood reciprocate above the farming pond. This allows the feed to be dispersed throughout the pond, and the fish also disperse to feed, reducing the accumulation of uneaten feed and the concentration of excrement caused by concentrated feeding. This effectively prevents local water quality deterioration, creates a good growth environment for greenfin filefish, and ensures their healthy growth. In addition, combined with the feed distribution mesh and quantitative electric valve, the feed outflow from the feeding hopper can be precisely controlled. The appropriate feeding amount can be set according to the different growth stages and farming densities of the greenfin filefish, avoiding feed waste and reducing farming costs.

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.

A movable support plate 3 is provided on one side of the transmission component 2. A feeding hopper 4 is fixedly embedded on the upper surface of the movable support plate 3. A quantitative electric valve 6 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the feeding hopper 4. An electric drive device is provided inside the quantitative electric valve 6. This device is connected to a controller 20 through a wire. The farmer can set parameters such as the feeding amount on the controller 20. The controller 20 sends a signal to the electric drive device to drive the valve to open and close and adjust the degree of opening and closing. Electric drive devices typically include components such as motors and transmission gears. After receiving a signal, the motor starts to run, and the transmission gears convert the rotational motion into linear or rotational motion of the valve components to control the valve opening size. In addition, the quantitative electric valve 6 is also equipped with feedback components such as position sensors. The position sensors monitor the position of the valve disc in real time and feed the information back to the controller 20. If there is a deviation between the actual valve disc position and the set value, the controller 20 will adjust the operation of the electric drive device in time to ensure that the valve opening degree meets the set feed flow requirements, thereby achieving precise control of feed flow. A feeding assembly 5 is provided above the feeding hopper 4. The bottom end of the feeding hopper 4 is fixedly connected to a distribution hood 7.

Multiple rotating baffles 10 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 9. Two distribution mesh plates 11 are fixedly embedded on the outer surface of the distribution hood 7.
[0024] As can be seen from the above description, the present invention has the following beneficial effects, wherein: the fixed support plate 21 is used to install the transmission component 2, so that the transmission component 2 is firmly fixed on one side of the breeding pond 1, providing a power source for the movement of the movable support plate 3; through the set feeding hopper 4, a large amount of feed can be stored; the feeding component 5 can automatically convey the feed downwards to avoid feed blockage; through the drive motor 8 driving the rotating baffle 10 to rotate inside the distribution cover 7, the feed can be evenly sprinkled through the distribution mesh plate 11, thereby achieving uniform distribution.

A transmission screw 204 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first variable frequency motor 202. A transmission slider 203 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the transmission screw 204. A connecting plate 22 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the transmission slider 203. One side of the connecting plate 22 is fixedly mounted to the bottom surface of the movable support plate 3. Two bearing rings 205 are fixedly embedded in the inner wall of the transmission slide 201.

The outer surface of the drive shaft 502 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 502. A spiral blade 503 is fixedly installed. Furthermore, the first variable frequency motor 202 drives the rotation of the transmission screw 204. Utilizing the threaded engagement between the transmission screw 204 and the transmission slider 203, the rotational motion of the motor can be converted into the linear motion of the transmission slider 203. Then, the connecting plate 22 drives the movable support plate 3 to move along the slide rail 16, thereby realizing the reciprocating motion of the feeding hopper 4 and the distribution cover 7 above the breeding pond 1, so that the feed is evenly distributed. The bearing ring 205 ensures the stability and smoothness of the rotation of the transmission screw 204, reducing friction and wear. The second variable frequency motor 501 drives the rotation of the drive shaft 502 and the spiral blade 503, which can transport the feed poured from the feeding port 14 into the feeding hopper 4 downward to the distribution cover 7, realizing the automatic delivery of feed and ensuring the continuity of the feeding process.
[0027] like Figures 1-5As shown, in a preferred embodiment, two support plates 15 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the aquaculture pond 1. A slide rail 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the two support plates 15 that are close to each other. Two sliding blocks 17 are slidably connected to the outer surface of the slide rail 16. The sides of the two sliding blocks 17 that are close to each other are fixedly installed to the outer surface of the movable support plate 3. Furthermore, the support plates 15 and the slide rail 16 provide guidance and support for the movement of the movable support plate 3. Through the sliding cooperation between the sliding blocks 17 and the slide rail 16, the movable support plate 3 can move smoothly above the aquaculture pond 1, ensuring uniform feed distribution. To achieve the scattering function, a support plate 18 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable support plate 3. The upper surface of the support plate 18 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the feeding hopper 4. Furthermore, the support plate 18 securely mounts the feeding hopper 4 onto the movable support plate 3, ensuring the stability of the feeding hopper 4 during movement and enabling it to perform normal feed storage and conveying operations. A bearing ring 12 is fixedly embedded in the inner bottom wall of the distribution hood 7. The inner ring of the bearing ring 12 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 9. Furthermore, the bearing ring 12 ensures the stability of the rotating shaft 9 during rotation, reduces friction, and enables the drive motor 8 to rotate the feed hopper. The rotation of plate 10 makes the feeding process smoother. A feeding port 14 is provided on the upper surface of the feeding hopper 4, and a transparent observation plate 13 is fixedly embedded on the outer surface of the feeding hopper 4. Furthermore, the feeding port 14 facilitates farmers adding feed to the feeding hopper 4, while the transparent observation plate 13 allows farmers to easily observe the remaining feed in the feeding hopper 4 and replenish it in a timely manner. A vertical plate 19 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the transmission assembly 2, and a controller 20 is fixedly installed on one side of the vertical plate 19. The controller 20 is electrically connected to the drive motor 8 and the metering electric valve 6 via wires. Furthermore, the controller... The controller 20 controls the drive motor 8 and the quantitative electric valve 6, setting the feeding time, frequency, and amount to achieve precise automatic feeding and meet the needs of different breeding stages of greenfin pufferfish. At the same time, the vertical plate 19 provides a stable installation position for the controller 20. In addition, in terms of circuit structure, the drive and control circuits are common and mature technologies. Those skilled in the art can select appropriate circuit components to build the circuit according to the power requirements and control requirements of the equipment. For the power supply components, common general-purpose power supply equipment on the market can be used, as long as it meets the voltage and current requirements of the equipment, without special design.
[0028] The working process of this utility model is as follows:
[0029] When the automatic feeder for greenfin pufferfish farming is used in the later stages, the feed is first poured into the feeding hopper 4 from the feeding port 14. Then, the second variable frequency motor 501 is started, which can drive the drive shaft 502 and the spiral blade 503 to rotate, which can convey the feed downward to the distribution hood 7. Then, the drive motor 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 and the rotating plate 10 to rotate, which can evenly distribute the feed in the distribution hood 7 through the distribution mesh plate 11.
[0030] Next, the first variable frequency motor 202 in the transmission assembly 2 drives the transmission screw 204 to rotate, and the transmission slider 203 moves on the transmission screw 204. It can drive the moving support plate 3 through the connecting plate 22 to make the feeding hopper 4 and the feed distribution cover 7 reciprocate above the breeding pond 1, so as to achieve uniform feed distribution. Then, the quantitative electric valve 6 controls the feed flow out of the feeding hopper 4. The feeding time, frequency and amount can be set according to the breeding needs to achieve precise automatic feeding. The transparent observation plate 13 makes it easy to observe the remaining feed in the feeding hopper 4 and replenish the feed in time. This is the working process and working principle of the device.
