Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a wave energy shellfish grinding ecological aquaculture device, belonging to the field of marine product aquaculture technology. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing demand for seafood, my country's aquaculture industry is developing rapidly, especially shellfish farming, which relies heavily on net cages. However, the traditional fixed structure and passive rotation of net cages in marine shellfish farming are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of modern aquaculture. Currently, net cages are typically fixed to the seabed by steel cables or anchoring devices, and their rotation depends entirely on natural forces such as waves and tides. However, this design has significant drawbacks: firstly, in harsh sea conditions, net cages are prone to violent shaking or even capsizing due to external impacts, causing damage to shellfish or their escape, resulting in economic losses; secondly, in calm sea conditions, net cages remain stationary due to a lack of continuous power input, failing to simulate the natural water flow environment, leading to reduced feeding efficiency and accumulation of deposits on the shell surface, severely impacting growth rate and product quality.

[0003] Studies have shown that shellfish can naturally polish themselves through friction between their shells and the water flow under moderate water currents, thereby enhancing their commercial value (such as the luster of oysters and the closing force of scallops). However, the passive rotation mechanism of traditional net cages is only effective within a specific wave intensity range. When wave energy is insufficient (such as in shallow nearshore waters or during summer slack seasons), shellfish are often in a still water environment, which can easily lead to problems such as stunted growth and frequent diseases. Therefore, we have made improvements and proposed a wave-energy shellfish polishing ecological aquaculture device. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a wave-powered shellfish polishing ecological aquaculture device. Through a drive device and net cage structure design, the net cage can automatically rotate under conditions of minimal waves and stillness. This causes the seafood inside the net cage to move with the rotation, utilizing the force of the waves to polish the shellfish, resulting in higher quality. Simultaneously, the rotational motion promotes water exchange, increases dissolved oxygen levels, and improves the aquaculture environment.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is a wave energy shellfish grinding ecological aquaculture device, which includes two supports. One of the supports is equipped with a drive mechanism. An active side transmission device and a driven side transmission device are respectively installed on the two supports. The other end of the active side transmission device and the driven side transmission device are connected to the net cage. The drive mechanism drives the net cage to rotate through the active side transmission device.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the drive mechanism includes a drive motor mounted on a bracket via a fixed frame, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to the active side transmission device.

The connecting frame is provided with a transmission rod, and the gear transmission assembly is installed at both ends of the connecting frame and connected to the transmission rod.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the gear transmission assembly includes a cover, a transmission shaft, a first bevel gear, a second bevel gear, and a transmission bearing. The transmission shaft passes through the cover, the transmission bearing is sleeved on the outer circumference of the transmission shaft, the first bevel gear is sleeved on the outer circumference of the transmission shaft, and the second bevel gear is sleeved on the transmission rod. The first bevel gear and the second bevel gear mesh and transmit power.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the driven-side transmission device includes a mounting frame, a connecting member, a driven bearing, an end cover, and a rotating shaft, wherein the connecting member is fixed to one end of the mounting frame, the rotating shaft passes through the connecting member, the driven bearing is sleeved on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft, and the end cover is pressed onto the driven bearing.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the drive shaft is provided with a sprocket, and adjacent sprockets are driven by a chain.

The partition is installed inside the frame and divides the frame into several breeding spaces. The net is fixed to the outer periphery of the frame. The support shaft passes through the axis of the frame. Under the action of force, the net cage can rotate around the support shaft.

The other ends of the active side transmission device 2 and the driven side transmission device 3 are connected to a net cage 4. The drive mechanism drives the net cage 4 to rotate through the active side transmission device 2.

[0026] In one specific embodiment of this invention, the active-side transmission device 2 includes a connecting frame 20 and a gear transmission assembly. A transmission rod 21 is housed within the connecting frame 20, and the gear transmission assembly is installed at both ends of the connecting frame 20 and connected to the transmission rod 21.

[0027] As a specific implementation of this embodiment, the driven side transmission device 3 includes a mounting frame 30, a connector 31, a driven bearing 32, an end cover 33, and a rotating shaft 34. The connector 31 is fixed to one end of the mounting frame 30, the rotating shaft 34 passes through the connector 31, the driven bearing 32 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 34, and the end cover 33 is pressed onto the driven bearing 32.

[0028] In one specific embodiment of this invention, the net cage 4 includes a frame 40, a net 41, a support shaft 42, and a partition 43. The partition 43 is installed inside the frame 40 and divides the frame 40 into several breeding spaces. The net 41 is fixed to the outer periphery of the frame 40. The support shaft 42 passes through the axis of the frame 40, and under the action of force, the net cage 4 can rotate around the support shaft 42. One of the drive shafts 23 of the active side transmission device 2 and one of the rotating shafts 34 of the driven side transmission device 3 are respectively connected to the two ends of the support shaft 42.

[0029] The drive mechanism controls the rotation of the transmission shaft 23, which in turn drives the first bevel gear 24 and the second bevel gear 25 to rotate. The second bevel gear 25 transmits power to the transmission shaft 23 through the transmission rod 21. The transmission shaft 23 is connected to the net cage 4, so that the net cage 4 rotates around the support shaft 42.

[0030] Example 2: As Figures 1-7 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, as a specific implementation of this embodiment, the driving mechanism includes a drive motor 11 mounted on a bracket 1 via a fixing frame 10.

The upper transmission shaft 23 of the active side transmission device 2 is equipped with a sprocket 27. Adjacent sprockets 27 are alternately connected by chains 28. In this way, a drive motor 11 can be used to drive the transmission shaft 23 to rotate, thereby driving the net cage 4 to rotate. This allows the rotation of the net cage 4 to be controlled when the seawater waves are small, making the quality of the shellfish more controllable. The mechanical control of the movement of the net cage 4 and the scouring of the waves will further improve the quality of the shellfish.
