[0029] 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.
[0030] This utility model embodiment provides a fish egg sorting device, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 1 , Figure 1 The diagram shows the structure of a fish egg sorting device, which includes: a housing 1, a water inlet pipe 2, a live egg conveying pipe 3, a dead egg conveying pipe 4, a water pump 5, a live egg collection box 6, a dead egg collection box 7, and a first valve 8.
[0031] The first end of the water inlet pipe 2 is located inside the housing 1, and the second end is used to connect to an external water source.
[0032] The first end of the live egg delivery tube 3 passes through the lower part of the side wall of the box 1 and is installed inside the box 1, with the opening of the first end of the live egg delivery tube 3 facing upwards, and the second end of the live egg delivery tube 3 is connected to the live egg collection box 6.
[0033] The first end of the dead egg transport tube 4 is located inside the box 1 and at the bottom of the box 1, and the second end of the dead egg transport tube 4 is connected to the dead egg collection box 7.
[0034] Water pump 5 is installed in dead egg delivery pipe 4;
[0035] The first valve 8 is located at the first end of the water inlet pipe 2.
[0036] It should be noted that the fish egg sorting device of this application can be applied to the sorting of golden pomfret eggs, as well as the sorting of eggs of other fish species. For ease of understanding, this application uses the sorting of golden pomfret eggs as an example. Due to the difference in buoyancy between dead and live eggs in water, that is, the buoyancy of live eggs is greater than that of dead eggs, the dead eggs of golden pomfret usually sink to the bottom of the water, while the live eggs float on the surface of the water.
[0037] It should also be noted that the first end of the dead egg transport pipe 4 in this application is lower than the first end of the live egg transport pipe 3. When the first valve 8 of the water inlet pipe 2 is opened, the live eggs in the tank 1 will rise with the water level during the water level rise, thereby achieving separation from the dead eggs. Since the first end of the dead egg transport pipe 4 in this application is lower than the first end of the live egg transport pipe 3, when the water level is higher than the first end of the live egg transport pipe 3, according to the characteristic of water flowing downhill, the live eggs floating on the water surface will follow the water into the first end of the live egg transport pipe 3, and then be transported to the live egg collection tank 6 through the live egg transport pipe 3, while the dead eggs remain in the tank 1. When the water pump 5 is turned on, the dead eggs that sink to the bottom of the tank 1 will enter the first end of the dead egg transport pipe 4 under the suction of the water pump 5, and finally be transported to the dead egg collection tank 7 through the dead egg transport pipe 4.
[0038] It is worth noting that this application can separate live eggs from dead eggs by taking live eggs out of the box 1 through the live egg transport tube 3, or by taking dead eggs out of the box 1 through the dead egg transport tube 4, or by taking live eggs or dead eggs out of the box 1 through the live egg transport tube 3 and the dead egg transport tube 4 respectively. Those skilled in the art can choose according to their needs.
[0039] In this embodiment of the utility model, the first end of the water inlet pipe 2 is set inside the box 1, and the second end is used to connect to an external water source. The first end of the live egg transport pipe 3 passes through the lower part of the side wall of the box 1 and is set inside the box 1, with the opening of the first end of the live egg transport pipe 3 facing upward. The second end of the live egg transport pipe 3 is connected to the live egg collection box 6. The first end of the dead egg transport pipe 4 is set inside the box 1 and is located at the bottom of the box 1. The second end of the dead egg transport pipe 4 is connected to the dead egg collection box 7. The water pump 5 is set in the dead egg transport pipe 4, and the first valve 8 is set in the first end of the water inlet pipe 2. With the fish egg sorting device disclosed above, when it is necessary to sort the fish eggs of golden pomfret, the fish eggs are first placed in the box 1, and then the first valve 8 is opened so that the live eggs in the box 1 rise with the water level. When the water level is higher than the first end of the live egg conveying pipe 3, the live eggs floating on the water surface will enter the first end of the live egg conveying pipe 3 with the water, and then be transported to the live egg collection box 6 through the live egg conveying pipe 3. Finally, the water pump 5 is turned on so that the dead eggs that sink to the bottom of the box 1 are transported to the dead egg collection box 7 through the dead egg conveying pipe 4. This can sort the dead eggs and live eggs. Compared with the existing manual sorting, this application is not only more efficient, but also effectively saves a lot of manpower.
[0040] Specifically, the first end of the live egg delivery tube 3 has a trumpet structure.

[0043] It should be noted that the first end of the water inlet pipe 2 and the first end of the dead egg conveying pipe 4 are respectively set on opposite sides of the box body 1. Thus, the water flow entering through the water inlet pipe 2 can push the dead eggs from one side of the water inlet pipe 2 toward the first end of the dead egg conveying pipe 4, making it easier for the dead eggs in the box body 1 to be transported through the dead egg conveying pipe 4 to the dead egg collection box 7 for collection.
[0044] Specifically, the opening at the first end of the live egg transport tube 3 is positioned facing the first end of the live egg transport tube 3.
[0045] It should be noted that the opening of the first end of the live egg delivery pipe 3 is set to face the first end of the live egg delivery pipe 3, so that the water flow entering through the water inlet pipe 2 can push the live eggs toward the first end of the live egg delivery pipe 3, making it easier for the live eggs to be transported through the live egg delivery pipe 3 into the live egg collection box 6 for collection.
[0046] Furthermore, the first end of the live egg transport pipe 3 is located between the first end of the water inlet pipe 2 and the first end of the dead egg transport pipe 4.

[0048] Specifically, the opening at the first end of the dead egg transport tube 4 is set downwards.
[0049] It should be noted that the opening of the first end of the dead egg transport tube 4 is set downwards, so that the dead eggs around the opening of the first end can be sucked into the dead egg transport tube 4. However, the opening of the first end of the dead egg transport tube 4 can be set downwards, or it can be set downwards towards the water inlet pipe 2, or it can be set in other directions. Those skilled in the art can choose according to their needs.
[0050] Furthermore, the fish egg sorting device also includes: a guide plate disposed inside the housing 1;
[0051] The guide plate is set at a preset angle inside the housing 1.
[0052] It should be noted that by setting a guide plate inside the tank 1 and placing the guide plate at a preset angle inside the tank 1, the water flow can form a specific flow trajectory inside the tank 1, so as to facilitate the live eggs entering the live egg delivery pipe 3.
[0053] Furthermore, the fish egg sorting device also includes: a drain pipe 9 and a second valve 10;
[0054] The lower part of the side wall of the collection box is provided with a drain outlet for installing the drain pipe 9;
[0055] The second valve 10 is installed on the drain pipe 9.
[0056] It should be noted that by setting up a drain pipe 9 and a second valve 10, and by opening a drain port for installing the drain pipe 9 at the lower part of the side wall of the collection box, and by setting the second valve 10 on the drain pipe 9, it is convenient to drain the cleaning liquid or water when cleaning the box 1.
