Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, and in particular to a pneumatic precision feeding device for the aquaculture industry. Background Technology

[0002] In modern large-scale farming, precise feeding is a key link in ensuring farming efficiency, reducing costs, and improving animal health. Precise feeding can accurately control the amount of feed given according to the nutritional needs of animals at different growth stages, avoid feed waste, and reduce the problems of overfeeding affecting the development of breeding chickens and ducks.

[0003] Currently, most existing feeding devices achieve their effects using the following technologies;

[0004] Weighing and metering technology: This technology uses high-precision weighing sensors to monitor the weight of materials in the hopper in real time. When the weight reaches a preset value, it automatically triggers a stop-feeding command, achieving precise quantitative dispensing. This is commonly used in aquaculture scenarios where high feeding accuracy is required.

[0005] Pneumatic conveying technology: This technology uses compressed air to transport materials through pipelines. By adjusting parameters such as airflow and conveying time, the amount of material fed can be flexibly controlled, making it particularly suitable for long-distance conveying and dispensing of powdered feed.

[0006] Electronic control system: Integrating sensors, controllers, and actuators to form a closed-loop control system. Sensors collect material feeding data, the controller analyzes and processes the data, and then drives the actuators to adjust the feeding speed and quantity, achieving automated and precise material feeding.

[0007] Visual recognition technology: Relying on cameras to capture images and combining them with image recognition algorithms, it monitors the material status and feeding situation in real time. By analyzing the image data, it determines whether the feeding amount meets the standard and feeds back to the system for dynamic adjustment.

[0008] Vibration feeding technology: This technology uses a vibrating motor or electromagnetic vibrator to make the hopper vibrate at high frequency, causing the material to fall evenly. By adjusting the vibration frequency and amplitude, the feeding speed and amount can be precisely controlled, making it suitable for feeding materials with poor flowability.

[0009] Currently, existing feeding devices have been found to have at least the following technical problems in actual use;

[0010] Most existing feeding devices use weighing metering technology, which relies on gravity to make feed fall from the hopper into the weighing bin. Although a weighing sensor is installed to weigh the feed, the amount of feed falling into the weighing bin under gravity may be too much, resulting in more feed being fed. The accuracy is difficult to control, so most existing feeding devices have the problem of low feeding accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0011] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pneumatic precision feeding device for the aquaculture industry, solving the problem of low feeding accuracy in existing feeding devices.

[0012] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0013] A pneumatic precision feeding device for the aquaculture industry includes a feeding port, an adjustment device, and a discharging port. Both sides of the adjustment device are equipped with control mechanisms for controlling the feed falling. The inner side of the adjustment device is equipped with an adjustment component for adjusting the volume. The control mechanism includes a cylinder, and the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to an L-shaped baffle. The adjustment component includes an adjustment block, one end of which has a threaded hole, and a screw is threaded into the threaded hole.

[0014] Preferably, both the feed inlet and the discharge inlet are fixedly connected to the adjusting device, and openings are provided at the connection points between the adjusting device and the feed inlet and the discharge inlet.

[0015] Preferably, the end of the adjusting device has a first slot and a second slot.

[0016] Preferably, the two cylinders are fixedly connected to the two side walls of the adjusting device, and the two L-shaped baffles are inserted into the first slot and the second slot respectively.

[0017] Preferably, the adjusting block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting device, and the threaded hole is rotatably connected to one end of the adjusting device where the first slot is provided.

[0018] Preferably, the adjusting device has an L-shaped opening on the side away from the adjusting block and close to the feeding port, which can be used with a cleaning device to clean the adjusting device. The end of the adjusting device away from the adjusting block is equipped with a controller and a battery, and the cylinder and the controller are electrically connected through a flexible circuit.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. In actual use, this application is used in conjunction with a fully automatic feeder. When the fully automatic feeder is full of feed, and feeding is required, the cylinder on the top of the adjusting device is activated. The cylinder drives the L-shaped baffle to slide out partially into the second slot, allowing the feed in the fully automatic feeder to fall into the inner side of the adjusting device through the feed inlet. When the space inside the adjusting device is full, the cylinder drives the L-shaped baffle to retract and close the feed inlet. When the space between the adjusting device and the adjusting block is full of feed, the lower cylinder is activated to control the L-shaped baffle to slide out into the first slot, unloading the feed and discharging it from the discharge outlet. The amount of feed dispensed is neither too much nor too little, exactly matching the volume between the adjusting device and the adjusting block, achieving precise feeding and solving the problem of low feeding accuracy in existing feeding devices.

[0021] Second, the volume between the adjusting device and the adjusting block can be adjusted by a screw. By rotating the screw and engaging the threaded hole, the adjusting block is moved inside the adjusting device, thereby changing the volume between the adjusting device and the adjusting block and achieving the effect of adjusting the amount of feed. After each adjustment, the total weight of the feed that can be loaded should be weighed by a weighing device, so that this application has high adjustability. Attached Figure Description

[0029] This application provides a pneumatic precision feeding device for the aquaculture industry, which effectively solves the problem of low feeding accuracy in existing feeding devices.

[0030] Example

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the technical problem of low feeding accuracy in existing feeding devices. The overall idea is as follows:

[0032] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a pneumatic precision feeding device for the aquaculture industry, including a feeding port 1, an adjusting device 2, and a feeding port 3. Both sides of the adjusting device 2 are provided with control mechanisms for controlling the falling of feed. The inner side of the adjusting device 2 is provided with an adjusting component 4 for adjusting the volume. The control mechanism includes a cylinder 5, and the output end of the cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to an L-shaped baffle 501. The adjusting component 4 includes an adjusting block 401, and one end of the adjusting block 401 is provided with a threaded hole 402. A screw 403 is internally threaded into the threaded hole 402.

[0033] Both the feeding port 1 and the discharging port 3 are fixedly connected to the adjusting device 2, and the positions where the adjusting device 2 is connected to the feeding port 1 and the discharging port 3 are provided with openings.

[0034] The end of the adjusting device 2 is provided with a first slot 201 and a second slot 202.

[0035] Two cylinders 5 are fixedly connected to the two side walls of the adjusting device 2, and two L-shaped baffles 501 are respectively inserted into the first slot 201 and the second slot 202.

[0036] The adjusting block 401 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting device 2, and the threaded hole 402 is rotatably connected to one end of the adjusting device 2 where the first slot 201 is provided.

[0037] The adjusting device 2 has an L-shaped opening on the side away from the adjusting block 401 and close to the feeding port 1, which can be used with the cleaning device to clean the adjusting device 2. The end of the adjusting device 2 away from the adjusting block 401 is equipped with a controller and a battery. The cylinder 5 is electrically connected to the controller through a flexible circuit.

[0038] The function of the feed inlet 1 is to serve as a channel for feed to enter the regulating device 2. The feed falls from the fully automatic feeder into the inner side of the regulating device 2 through the feed inlet 1.

[0039] The function of the adjusting device 2 is to hold feed and, in conjunction with the cylinder 5 and the adjusting assembly 4, to achieve precise feeding and adjust the feeding amount. Simultaneously, the first slot 201 and the second slot 202 at its end are for the insertion of the L-shaped baffle 501 to control the feed's descent. Furthermore, openings at its connection points with the feed inlet 1 and the feed outlet 3 allow feed to pass through. The L-shaped opening on the side of the adjusting device 2 away from the adjusting block 401 and closer to the feed inlet 1 allows for cleaning of the adjusting device 2 using a cleaning device. A controller and battery are installed at the end of the adjusting device 2 away from the adjusting block 401 to control the operation of the cylinder 5.

[0040] The function of the feed inlet 3 is to discharge the feed from the regulating device 2 so that the feed can be fed.

[0041] The function of the adjusting component 4 is to change the volume between the adjusting device 2 and the adjusting block 401 by cooperating with the adjusting block 401 and the screw 403, thereby adjusting the material feeding amount. The adjusting block 401 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting device 2, and the threaded hole 402 is rotatably connected to one end of the adjusting device 2 with the first slot 201. The screw 403 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 402, and rotating the screw 403 can move the adjusting block 401.

[0042] The function of cylinder 5 is to drive the L-shaped baffle 501 to slide through the output end, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the feed inlet 1 and the falling of the feed, so as to achieve precise feeding.

[0043] The function of the first slot 201 is to allow the L-shaped baffle 501 to be inserted. When the cylinder 5 drives the L-shaped baffle 501 to slide out of the first slot 201, the feed in the adjusting device 2 can be discharged through the feed outlet 3.

[0044] The function of the second slot 202 is to allow the L-shaped baffle 501 to be inserted. When the cylinder 5 drives the L-shaped baffle 501 to slide out of the second slot 202, the feed can fall from the fully automatic feeder through the feeding port 1 into the inner side of the regulating device 2.

[0045] The function of the adjusting block 401 is to slide on the inner wall of the adjusting device 2 under the drive of the screw 403, thereby changing the volume between the adjusting device 2 and the adjusting block 401 and thus adjusting the amount of material fed.

[0046] The function of the threaded hole 402 is to connect with the screw 403 by thread. By rotating the screw 403, the adjusting block 401 is moved, thereby changing the volume.

[0047] The screw 403, by cooperating with the threaded hole 402, drives the adjusting block 401 to move inside the adjusting device 2, thereby adjusting the amount of material fed.

[0048] The function of the L-shaped baffle 501 is to slide within the first slot 201 and the second slot 202 under the drive of the cylinder 5, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the feeding port 1 and the falling of the feed to achieve precise feeding.

[0049] Working principle:

[0050] The first step is that this application is used in conjunction with a fully automatic feeder in actual use. When the fully automatic feeder is full of feed, the cylinder 5 at the top of the adjusting device 2 is activated when feeding is needed. The cylinder 5 drives the L-shaped baffle 501 to slide out part of the second slot 202, so that the feed in the fully automatic feeder falls into the inner side of the adjusting device 2 through the feeding port 1. When the space inside the adjusting device 2 is full, the cylinder 5 drives the L-shaped baffle 501 to retract and close the feeding port 1. When the space between the adjusting device 2 and the adjusting block 401 is full of feed, the lower cylinder 5 is activated to control the L-shaped baffle 501 to slide out of the first slot 201, unloading the feed and discharging it from the discharge port 3. The amount of feed dispensed is neither too much nor too little, exactly the volume between the adjusting device 2 and the adjusting block 401, achieving precise feeding.

[0051] The second step is to adjust the volume between the adjusting device 2 and the adjusting block 401 by the screw 403. By rotating the screw 403 and engaging the threaded hole 402, the adjusting block 401 is moved inside the adjusting device 2, thereby changing the volume between the adjusting device 2 and the adjusting block 401 and achieving the effect of adjusting the amount of feed. After each adjustment, the total weight of the feed that can be loaded should be weighed by the weighing device.

[0052] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
