Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture detection technology, specifically an aquaculture information monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] Aquaculture is the practice of raising aquatic economic animals using available waters, according to the ecological habits and environmental requirements of the aquatic organisms, employing aquaculture technologies and facilities. The emergence and development of this industry signifies a significant increase in human ability to influence and control waterways. Aquaculture mainly includes marine aquaculture and freshwater aquaculture. The former primarily cultivates marine organisms such as shellfish and algae, while the latter primarily cultivates aquatic animals such as fish and crustaceans. Furthermore, based on different farming methods, it can be divided into intensive farming, extensive farming, monoculture, and polyculture.

[0003] In aquaculture, the oxygen content in the water is a crucial parameter, directly affecting the survival environment and health of farmed organisms. To ensure the oxygen content in the water remains at an appropriate level, aquaculture operators typically need to closely monitor this indicator. Traditionally, this involves manually inserting a dissolved oxygen meter probe into the water for real-time monitoring. However, this method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also requires frequent operation by aquaculture personnel, undoubtedly increasing labor costs and potentially leading to inaccurate data due to human error. Therefore, an aquaculture information monitoring device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a livestock information monitoring device to solve the problem of inconvenient oxygen content detection in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an aquaculture information monitoring device, comprising a protective shell, a positioning ring seat fixedly installed at the bottom of the protective shell, a connecting leg fixedly installed on the positioning ring seat, a telescopic support fixedly installed on the connecting leg, a detection mechanism provided inside the protective shell, the detection mechanism including a positioning bracket fixedly installed inside the protective shell, a drive rack movably installed on the positioning bracket, a drive gear rotatably installed on one side of the drive rack, a positioning seat fixedly installed at the lower end of the drive rack, a dissolved oxygen meter probe fixedly installed on the positioning seat, and a rinsing mechanism connected to the positioning bracket.

[0006] Preferably, a movable shaft is fixedly mounted on the drive gear, and a planetary reducer is provided on the movable shaft.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning bracket has a movable slide groove, and the drive rack is movably mounted on the positioning bracket through the movable slide groove.

[0008] Preferably, the positioning bracket is provided with a bearing, the movable shaft is rotatably mounted on the positioning bracket through the bearing, the drive gear is movably mounted on one side of the drive rack through the movable shaft, and the drive gear meshes with the drive rack, and the dissolved oxygen meter probe is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the drive rack through the positioning seat.

[0009] Preferably, the rinsing mechanism includes a motor frame and a gear pump fixedly mounted on a positioning bracket. A drive shaft is provided between the drive motor and the gear pump. An inlet pipe and an outlet pipe are connected to the gear pump. A rinsing nozzle is provided at the end of the outlet pipe. Both the drive shaft and the movable shaft are provided with helical gears, and the helical gears mesh together in pairs.

[0010] Preferably, the output end of the drive motor is provided with a coupling, one end of the drive shaft is fixedly installed to the output end of the drive motor through the coupling, and the other end of the drive shaft is connected to the gear pump.

[0011] Preferably, the drive motor is fixedly mounted on one side of the positioning bracket via a motor frame, a filter screen is provided at the end of the water inlet pipe, a bolt is provided on one side of the positioning bracket, and the positioning bracket is fixedly mounted on one side of the positioning bracket via bolts.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] In this application, after the drive motor is started, it will drive the drive shaft to rotate. Subsequently, the rotation of the drive shaft will cause the movable shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear will drive the rack to move up and down. When the drive rack descends, the dissolved oxygen meter probe will also descend, thereby automatically extending the dissolved oxygen meter probe into the aquaculture pond for detection, replacing manual operation.

[0014] In this application, when the drive motor performs a reverse rotation operation, it drives the drive shaft to a reverse rotation state. Subsequently, the reverse rotation of the drive shaft will cause the gear pump to start operating. The operation of the gear pump will cause water in the aquaculture tank to be drawn into the pump through the inlet pipe. The water drawn into the pump is then sprayed out through the flushing nozzle on the outlet pipe to effectively remove debris from the surface of the dissolved oxygen meter probe.

[0020] 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.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for an aquaculture information monitoring device, including a protective shell 1, a positioning ring seat 2 fixedly installed at the bottom of the protective shell 1, a connecting support leg 3 fixedly installed on the positioning ring seat 2, a telescopic support 4 fixedly installed on the connecting support leg 3, a detection mechanism 5 provided inside the protective shell 1, and a rinsing mechanism 6 connected to the positioning support 501. The detection mechanism 5 can automatically insert the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 into the aquaculture pond for detection, replacing manual labor. The rinsing mechanism 6 can clean the debris on the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507.

[0022] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the detection mechanism 5 includes a positioning bracket 501 fixedly installed inside the protective housing 1. A drive rack 505 is movably installed on the positioning bracket 501. A drive gear 502 is rotatably installed on one side of the drive rack 505. A positioning seat 506 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the drive rack 505. A dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 is fixedly installed on the positioning seat 506. A movable shaft 504 is fixedly installed on the drive gear 502. A planetary reducer 503 is provided on the movable shaft 504. A movable slide groove is provided on the positioning bracket 501. The drive rack 505 is movably installed on the positioning bracket 501 through the movable slide groove. A bearing is provided on the positioning bracket 501. The movable shaft 504 is rotatably installed on the positioning bracket 501 through the bearing.

[0023] Specifically, when the drive motor 601 is started, it begins to rotate the drive shaft 603. As the drive shaft 603 rotates, the movable shaft 504 also rotates. The rotation of the movable shaft 504 further drives the rotation of the drive gear 502. Once the drive gear 502 begins to rotate, it interacts with the drive rack 505, causing the drive rack 505 to begin its vertical movement. When the drive rack 505 descends, it causes the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 to descend along with it. In this way, the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 can automatically extend into the aquaculture pond for detection, effectively replacing manual operation and improving detection efficiency.

[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the rinsing mechanism 6 includes a motor frame 602 and a gear pump 604 fixedly mounted on the positioning bracket 501. A drive shaft 603 is provided between the drive motor 601 and the gear pump 604. A water inlet pipe 605 and a water outlet pipe 606 are connected to the gear pump 604. A rinsing nozzle 607 is provided at the end of the water outlet pipe 606. Both the drive shaft 603 and the movable shaft 504 are provided with helical gears 508, and the helical gears 508 mesh together in pairs. A coupling is provided at the output end of the drive motor 601. One end of the drive shaft 603 is fixedly mounted to the output end of the drive motor 601 through the coupling, and the other end of the drive shaft 603 is connected to the gear pump 604.

[0025] Specifically, when the drive motor 601 starts to rotate in reverse, it causes the drive shaft 603 to rotate in reverse via mechanical transmission. As the drive shaft 603 moves in reverse, it further drives the connected gear pump 604 to start operating. Once the gear pump 604 starts working, it generates suction, drawing water from the aquaculture tank into its interior through the inlet pipe 605. After being processed inside the gear pump 604, this water is transported to the rinsing nozzle 607 through the outlet pipe 606. Finally, under the action of the rinsing nozzle 607, this water is sprayed out in the form of a jet, effectively washing away debris adhering to the surface of the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507, ensuring the probe's measurement accuracy and precision.

[0026] Working principle: First, the telescopic support column 4 is fixedly installed inside the aquaculture pond. Then, the height of the protective shell 1 can be adjusted using the telescopic support column 4 until the bottom of the protective shell 1 is aligned with the water surface. After the bottom of the protective shell 1 is aligned with the water surface, the drive motor 601 can be started. Starting the drive motor 601 will drive the drive shaft 603 to rotate. The rotation of the drive shaft 603 will then drive the movable shaft 504 to rotate. The rotation of the movable shaft 504 will then drive the drive gear 502 to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 502 will then drive the drive rack 505 to rise and fall. When the drive rack 505 descends, it will cause the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 to descend. Instead of manual intervention, the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 is automatically inserted into the aquaculture pond for detection. After the detection is completed, the drive motor 601 can be controlled to rotate in reverse, causing the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507 to reset. After the drive motor 601 rotates in reverse, it will drive the drive shaft 603 to rotate in reverse. After the drive shaft 603 rotates in reverse, it will drive the gear pump 604 to operate. After the gear pump 604 operates, the water in the aquaculture pond will enter the gear pump 604 through the water inlet pipe 605. The water entering the gear pump 604 will be sprayed out through the flushing nozzle 607 on the water outlet pipe 606, thereby washing away the debris on the dissolved oxygen meter probe 507.

[0027] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
