[0043] The storage hopper 200 is placed on the base 100, and the bait is placed inside the storage hopper 200; the base 100 makes the placement of the storage hopper 200 more stable.

[0044] The spotlight 300 is provided with a through hole 310. The spotlight 300 can be composed of multiple LEDs evenly distributed. The through hole 310 can be located in the center of the spotlight 300. The spotlight 300 can use light to attract and gather fish fry, and food can pass through the through hole 310 to feed the fish fry. In this embodiment, the diameter of the spotlight 300 is in the range of 5cm to 10cm, for example, the diameter of the spotlight 300 is 7cm or 8cm. In addition, the spotlight 300 can also be made of waterproof material to prevent the LEDs from failing after being exposed to water.

[0045] The first end of the conduit 400 is connected to the storage tank 200, and the second end of the conduit 400 is connected to the spotlight 300 through the through hole 310; so that the feed in the storage tank 200 can be guided through the conduit 400 to the through hole 310 of the spotlight 300, thereby feeding the gathered fish fry.

[0046] A suction pump 500 is installed on the conduit 400, which can draw the feed in the storage tank 200 through the conduit 400 to the through hole 310. In this embodiment, the suction pump 500 can be an electric water pump, which can adjust the flow rate of the feed in the storage tank 200, so that the feeding speed of the feed is controllable.

[0047] The particle detector 600 is installed on the conduit 400 and can detect the amount of feed flowing in the conduit 400. It can determine the amount of feed to be fed and accurately control the amount of feed, which is beneficial to the feeding process.

[0048] It is understood that the feeding device for factory-farmed fish fry provided in the embodiments of this utility model, which is suitable for the initial feeding of fish fry, is equipped with a feed storage tank 200 for holding feed, a spotlight 300 with a through hole 310, and a conduit 400 connecting the feed storage tank 200 and the spotlight 300. This allows the feed in the feed storage tank 200 to flow through the conduit 400 to the through hole 310 of the spotlight 300, thus achieving feed feeding. A suction pump 500 is installed on the conduit 400 to regulate the flow rate of the feed flowing through the conduit 400, thereby controlling the feed feeding speed. In addition, a particle detector 600 is also installed on the conduit 400 to accurately detect the amount of feed flowing through the conduit 400, improving the accuracy of the feeding amount and benefiting the fry rearing process. It can control the feeding speed and amount, thereby reducing labor costs, making the feeding operation more convenient, the feeding amount more accurate, and improving the survival rate of fry rearing.

[0049] Specifically, in some embodiments of this utility model, the conduit 400 includes a first conduit 410, a second conduit 420, a third conduit 430, a first angler 440, and a second angler 450.

[0050] The first conduit 410 and the second conduit 420 can be connected through the first angler 440, and the second conduit 420 and the third conduit 430 can be connected through the second angler 450; so that the angle between the first conduit 410, the second conduit 420 and the third conduit 430 can be adjusted to improve flexibility and make operation more convenient.

[0051] The first end of the first conduit 410 is connected to the storage tank 200, and the second end of the third conduit 430 is connected to the spotlight 300 through the through hole 310.

[0052] The suction pump 500 and particle detector 600 can be mounted on the second conduit 420, which simplifies the structure of the feeding device.

[0053] In addition, the first conduit 410, the second conduit 420 and the third conduit 430 can be made of PP plastic with a thickness of 3mm; the first corner bracket 440 and the second corner bracket 450 can both be round plastic corner brackets to save costs.

[0054] In some embodiments of this utility model, the base 100 includes an upper ring frame 110, a support 120, and a lower ring frame 130.

[0055] The upper ring frame 110 and the lower ring frame 130 are connected by a bracket 120. The diameter of the upper ring frame 110 is smaller than that of the lower ring frame 130, making the structure of the base 100 simpler and more stable.

[0056] Specifically, the upper ring frame 110, the support 120, and the lower ring frame 130 can be made of iron. The upper ring frame 110 and the lower ring frame 130 are circular in shape. The support 120 can be connected to the upper ring frame 110 and the lower ring frame 130 by welding, which makes the base 100 easier to manufacture and further saves manufacturing costs.

[0057] In addition, the diameter of the upper ring frame 110 ranges from 10cm to 20cm, for example, the diameter of the upper ring frame 110 is 15cm or 18cm; the diameter of the lower ring frame 130 ranges from 20cm to 25cm, for example, the diameter of the lower ring frame 130 is 21cm or 23cm; when the diameter of the upper ring frame 110 is 15cm, the diameter of the lower ring frame 130 can be 21cm; when the diameter of the upper ring frame 110 is 18cm, the diameter of the lower ring frame 130 can be 23cm.

[0058] The distance between the upper ring frame 110 and the lower ring frame 130 is 20cm-25cm. For example, the distance between the upper ring frame 110 and the lower ring frame 130 is 22cm or 24cm.

[0059] In some embodiments of this utility model, the storage bin 200 includes a circular bin 210 and a conical bin 220 connected to each other, forming a storage cavity 230. The opening 231 of the storage cavity 230 is located in the circular bin 210.

[0060] The conical hopper 220 is set on the upper ring frame 110, which makes the structure of the storage hopper 200 simpler.

[0061] Both the round hopper 210 and the conical hopper 220 can be made of transparent PP plastic with a thickness of 3cm to save costs.

[0062] Furthermore, the diameter of the circular material bucket 210 can range from 10cm to 20cm, for example, the diameter of the circular material bucket 210 is 13cm or 18cm; the height of the circular material bucket 210 can range from 10cm to 15cm, for example, 12cm or 14cm; the bottom diameter of the conical material bucket 220 can range from 10cm to 20cm, for example, the bottom diameter of the conical material bucket 220 is 13cm or 18cm; the height of the conical material bucket 220 can range from 8cm to 10cm, for example, the height of the conical material bucket 220 is 8cm or 9cm; the bottom diameter of the conical material bucket 220 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the upper ring frame 110. When the bottom diameter of the conical material bucket 220 is 18cm, the diameter of the upper ring frame 110 can be 15cm, further simplifying the structure of the storage bucket 200 to save manufacturing costs.

[0063] Of course, in some embodiments of this utility model, the conical bucket 220 can also be detachably installed on the upper ring frame 110 for easy cleaning or replacement.

[0064] In some embodiments of this utility model, the feeding device suitable for the initial feeding of fish fry in factory farming also includes an air stone, which can be placed in the storage chamber 230 to supply oxygen to the feed in the storage chamber 230.

[0065] In some embodiments of this utility model, the feeding device suitable for the initial feeding of fish fry in factory farming also includes a water float 700, which is disposed in the storage chamber 230.

[0066] The first end of the conduit 400 is connected to the water float 700.

[0067] Specifically, the float 700 can be a buoyant plastic disc with a diameter ranging from 10cm to 20cm, for example, a diameter of 15cm or 18cm. A circular hole with a diameter of 2cm to 4cm is cut into the center of the plastic disc, for example, a diameter of 3cm. The first end of the guide tube 400 is inserted into this circular hole. This prevents the first end of the guide tube 400 from being directly inserted into the bottom of the storage tank 200, improving the efficiency of bait extraction.

[0068] In some embodiments of this utility model, the feeding device suitable for the initial feeding of fish fry in factory farming further includes a stirrer 800, which is disposed in the feed storage chamber 230.
