Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fish fry counting technology, specifically a fish fry counting device. Background Technology
[0002] Fish fry counting is a crucial step in the aquaculture process for statistical analysis and management of fry numbers. It directly impacts the efficiency and economic benefits of fish farming. As the foundation of the future population, the quantity and quality of fry determine the success of aquaculture. Accurate fry counting allows us to understand population density, sex ratio, and individual size distribution, providing a scientific basis for aquaculture decisions.
[0003] Currently, there are many types of fish fry. Most fish fry counting devices have a drawback during the counting process: they cannot classify the fish fry according to their size. This leads to a waste of time and reduced efficiency for staff to manually classify them later. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a fish fry counting device that can classify fish fry by size through a classification sieve. After the fixed connecting block is activated, the fixed connecting block vibrates the classification sieve through a long transmission rod, a first transmission rod, a second transmission rod, and a sliding short shaft, so that some of the smaller fish fry are sieved through the slots to the next classification sieve, thus achieving the effect of classification.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a fish fry counting device is provided, comprising a sorting bin, a fish fry inlet fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sorting bin, a sorting sieve plate slidably connected to the inner side surface of the fish fry inlet, a baffle fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sorting sieve plate, a counting module body fixedly connected to the left side surface of the sorting bin, a vibration mechanism provided on the rear side surface of the sorting bin, a fixed hook fixedly connected to the front surface of the sorting bin, and a storage box slidably connected to the inner surface of the fixed hook.
[0006] According to the aforementioned fish fry counting device, the vibration mechanism includes a fixed connecting block, a dual-head drive motor, a transmission rod, a first transmission rod, a sliding groove, a sliding short shaft, and a second transmission rod. The fixed connecting block is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the sorting bin, and the dual-head drive motor is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the fixed connecting block. By setting the fixed connecting block and the dual-head drive motor, the fixed connecting block can generate rotational power through the dual-head drive motor, allowing the transmission rod to rotate in a circular manner, thus achieving a rotational effect.
[0007] According to the aforementioned fish fry counting device, the transmission rod is rotatably connected to the output end of a dual-head drive motor. Two transmission rods are provided, with one end of the first transmission rod rotatably connected to the outer surface of the transmission rod. By setting the transmission rod and the first transmission rod, after the fixed connecting block is started, the two first transmission rods can be vibrated through the transmission rod, avoiding manual vibration and achieving the effect of force transmission.
[0008] According to the aforementioned fish fry counting device, the sliding troughs are located on both sides of the sorting bin, and two sliding troughs are provided. The sliding short shafts are slidably connected to the inner surface of the sliding troughs, and two sliding short shafts are provided. By providing the sliding troughs and sliding short shafts, when the sliding short shafts slide, the sliding troughs can limit the movement of the sliding short shafts in a vertical manner, thereby driving the internal mechanism to move and achieving a limiting effect.
[0009] According to the aforementioned fish fry counting device, one end of the second transmission rod is sleeved on the outer surface of the sliding short shaft. The second transmission rod is connected to the transmission long rod via the first transmission rod. The upper sliding short shaft is connected to the lower sliding short shaft via the second transmission rod. The sliding short shaft is fixedly connected to the classification sieve plate. By setting the second transmission rod, when the first transmission rod vibrates, the second transmission rod can transmit guiding force to the sliding short shaft, thus achieving the effect of transmission.
[0010] According to the fish fry counting device, the sorting sieve plate is provided with multiple slots, and the upper surface of the sorting sieve plate is provided with multiple slots. The diameter of the slots decreases from top to bottom. By providing multiple slots on the upper surface of the sorting sieve plate, the fish fry can flow downward through the inside of the slots, avoiding the fish fry from staying on the upper surface of the sorting sieve plate for a long time.
[0011] According to the aforementioned fish fry counting device, a water outlet is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the sorting chamber, and a water storage tank is provided on the lower surface of the sorting chamber. The sorting sieve plate has an inclined shape. By providing a water outlet, after the staff pours the fish fry into the inlet, liquid may be attached to the surface of the fish. When the liquid flows out through the lower surface of the sorting chamber, it may disperse in all directions. At this time, the water outlet can reduce the range of liquid dispersion. The baffle can prevent the liquid from spreading out of the sorting chamber through the sliding groove, thus achieving a blocking effect.
[0012] According to the aforementioned fish fry counting device, the fixed hook is L-shaped, and multiple fixed hooks are provided. The diameter of the outlet gradually decreases from top to bottom. By setting the fixed hook to be L-shaped, when the storage box is hung on the inner surface of the fixed hook, the fixed hook can hold the storage box and prevent the fixed hook from falling due to gravity. The sorting sieve plate is inclined, which allows the fish fry to automatically flow into the storage box due to gravity.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up a fish fry inlet, a sorting sieve plate, a baffle, and a vibration mechanism, the fixed connecting block is activated. Subsequently, the fixed connecting block drives the sorting sieve plate and the baffle to vibrate through two long transmission rods, a first transmission rod, a sliding short shaft, and a second transmission rod. Then, the fish fry are thrown into the upper surface of the sorting sieve plate through the fish fry inlet. At this time, because the sorting sieve plate is vibrating, the fish fry smaller than the slots will automatically flow out through the slots, while the larger fish fry will flow outwards due to the inclined surface of the sorting sieve plate, thus achieving the effect of sorting. At this time, the fish fry will be automatically sorted on the upper surface of the next sorting sieve plate.

[0023] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a fish fry counting device, which includes a classification chamber 1. A fish fry inlet 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the classification chamber 1. A classification sieve plate 7 is slidably connected to the inner side surface of the fish fry inlet 2. A baffle plate 8 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the classification sieve plate 7. A counting module body 4 is fixedly connected to the left side surface of the classification chamber 1. A vibration mechanism 3 is provided on the rear side surface of the classification chamber 1. A fixing hook 6 is fixedly connected to the front surface of the classification chamber 1. A storage box 5 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the fixing hook 6.
[0025] The vibration mechanism 3 includes a fixed connecting block 301, a dual-head drive motor 302, a transmission rod 303, a first transmission rod 304, a sliding groove 305, a sliding short shaft 306, and a second transmission rod 307. The fixed connecting block 301 is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the sorting bin 1. The dual-head drive motor 302 is fixedly connected to the rear side surface of the fixed connecting block 301. The transmission rod 303 is rotatably connected to the output end of the dual-head drive motor 302. There are two transmission rods 303. One end of the first transmission rod 304 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the transmission rod 303. The sliding grooves 305 are located on both sides of the sorting bin 1. There are two sliding grooves 305. The sliding short shafts 306 are slidably connected to the inner surface of the sliding grooves 305. The two sliding short shafts 306 are generated by the dual-head drive motor 302, which causes the transmission rod 303 to rotate in a circular manner, thus playing a rotational role. When the sliding short shafts 306 slide, the sliding grooves 305 will cause the sliding short shafts 306 to move in a sliding manner, thereby driving the internal mechanism to vibrate, which plays a limiting role.
[0026] One end of the second transmission rod 307 is sleeved on the outer surface of the sliding short shaft 306. The second transmission rod 307 is connected to the transmission long rod 303 through the first transmission rod 304. The upper sliding short shaft 306 is connected to the lower sliding short shaft 306 through the second transmission rod 307. The sliding short shaft 306 is fixedly connected to the sorting sieve plate 7. When the first transmission rod 304 vibrates, the first transmission rod 304 will cause the second transmission rod 307 to transmit a guiding force to the sliding short shaft 306, which plays a role in transmission.
[0027] Multiple sorting sieves 7 are provided, and multiple slots are opened on the upper surface of the sorting sieves 7. The diameter of the slots decreases from top to bottom. A water outlet 9 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the sorting bin 1, and a water storage tank 10 is provided on the lower surface of the sorting bin 1. The sorting sieves 7 are inclined, and the fixed hooks 6 are L-shaped. Multiple fixed hooks 6 are provided, and the diameter of the water outlet 9 gradually decreases from top to bottom. By changing the upper surface of the sorting sieves 7 to multiple slots, fish fry can pass through the inside of the slots and flow downwards, preventing the fish fry from staying on the upper part of the sorting sieves 7. When the staff pours the fish fry into the fish fry inlet 2, the surface of the fish fry may be covered with liquid. When the liquid flows out through the lower surface of the sorting bin 1, the liquid may spill in all directions. At this time, the water outlet 9 can reduce the area of liquid dispersion. The baffle 8 can prevent the liquid from flowing out of the sorting bin 1 through the sliding groove 305, thus acting as a barrier.
[0028] Working principle: The dual-head drive motor 302 is started. The dual-head drive motor 302 causes the classification screen plate 7 to slide rapidly up and down through two transmission rods 303, the first transmission rod 304, the second transmission rod 307 and the sliding groove 305, which has a vibration effect. Then, the staff throws the fish fry into the classification chamber 1 through the fish fry inlet 2. Because the classification screen plate 7 is vibrating at this time, some smaller fish fry will flow downward through the grooves on the upper surface of the classification screen plate 7, which has a classification effect. At this time, the counting module body 4 starts to count the fish fry. At this time, the larger fish fry will automatically flow into the storage box 5 because the surface of the classification screen plate 7 is inclined. Since there may be liquid on the surface of the fish fry, the baffle 8 will block the liquid and prevent the liquid from flowing out through the sliding groove 305, which has a blocking effect. The excess liquid will flow out through the outlet 9 into the water storage tank 10. After collection, the staff can remove the storage box 5 upwards to complete the process.
[0029] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
