Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, specifically to a feed mixing device for aquaculture. Background Technology

[0002] Aquaculture is a production activity in which humans utilize suitable waters to cultivate and harvest aquatic organisms on a large scale through artificial stocking, feeding, and water quality control. Its aquaculture targets include a variety of aquatic plants and animals such as fish, shrimp, crabs, shellfish, and algae. Aquaculture sites include ponds, lakes, reservoirs, paddy fields, factory-style cement ponds, and marine cages. As an important component of fisheries, aquaculture, through scientific management, improves the growth rate and survival rate of aquatic organisms, meeting human demand for aquatic products while alleviating the pressure of overfishing on natural fishery resources. It is an important industrial model for ensuring food safety and ecological balance.

[0003] In current aquaculture, daily scheduled feeding has become a routine operation, but existing feed mixing equipment has significant shortcomings. These machines are mostly fixed installations, lacking flexibility for movement. After each mixing cycle, the feed must first be transferred to other containers and then manually transported to each feeding point. This not only increases the labor intensity of the handling process but also may cause feed loss due to multiple transfers. More importantly, liquid medications are often added during the mixing process to enhance aquaculture effects. However, due to limitations in the equipment's mixing structure design, directly pouring liquids into the mixer often requires a significant amount of time to achieve uniform mixing of feed and medications, thus affecting feeding efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned problems, this utility model proposes a feed mixing device for aquaculture that is easy to move, can be directly taken to the feed feeding point, and can quickly mix solid and liquid, thereby improving feeding efficiency.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is: a feed mixing device for aquaculture, comprising:

[0006] The bracket includes a base plate, several support rods and push rods. The bottom surface of the base plate is provided with several feet. The support rods are fixedly installed at the upper edge of the base plate. The push rods are fixedly installed on one side of the base plate, with a handle at the upper end and a roller at the lower end.

[0007] A mixing chamber is located above the base plate, and its side walls are fixedly connected to the upper ends of each support rod. A mixing auger is rotatably connected inside the mixing chamber. The mixing auger is driven by a motor fixedly located on one side of the mixing chamber. A discharge pipe is provided on the bottom surface of the mixing chamber, and a valve is provided on the discharge pipe.

[0008] The liquid adding cylinder is located above the mixing tank and is driven by a screw drive fixed on the mixing tank to move along the extension direction of the mixing auger. Its bottom surface is provided with a liquid outlet pipe, and the liquid outlet pipe is provided with a valve.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the support leg is provided with an anti-slip pad.

[0010] Furthermore, four support rods are provided near the four corners of the base plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the number of push rods is no less than two, and they are arranged in parallel.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom plate of the mixing tank is an arc-shaped plate with a downward convex center, and the discharge pipe is located at the lowest point of the bottom surface of the mixing tank.

[0013] Furthermore, a battery for powering the motor and lead screw driver is fixedly installed on the side wall of the mixing chamber.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: the device is equipped with a push rod and multiple rollers, so that the operator can push it with a balanced force. With the help of battery power, it is free from the constraints of external power supply and can be flexibly moved to various feeding points, reducing the feed transfer links.

[0015] The liquid dispensing cylinder moves along the auger direction under the drive of the screw, allowing liquid raw materials to be evenly added to the feed at different locations. Combined with the rapid stirring of the auger, the solid and liquid components are fully mixed in a short time. At the same time, the arc-shaped bottom design makes it easier to discharge the mixed feed, reducing residue. The overall process is smooth, significantly shortening the time from stirring to feeding and effectively improving feeding efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 4 A feed mixing device for aquaculture includes: a support frame, comprising a base plate 1, several support rods 2 and push rods 3, wherein the bottom surface of the base plate 1 is provided with several support feet 4, and the bottom surface of the support feet 4 is provided with anti-slip pads 16, which can increase the friction with the ground and effectively prevent the device from shifting due to vibration during mixing operations, thereby improving stability.

[0023] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 4 The support rod 2 is fixedly installed at the upper edge of the base plate 1, and the push rod 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the base plate 1. The upper end of the push rod is provided with a handle 5 and the lower end is provided with a roller 6. There are no less than two push rods 3, and they are arranged in parallel, which allows the operator to apply more even force when pushing the device and reduce the feeling of exertion. At the same time, the number of rollers 6 increases, making the pushing process more stable.

[0024] Combined with appendix Figure 1 The mixing box 7 is located above the base plate 1, and its side walls are fixedly connected to the upper ends of each support rod 2. There are four support rods 2 near the four corners of the base plate 1, which can provide uniform and stable support for the mixing box 7, distribute the weight, avoid excessive force on a single part and cause damage, and extend the service life of the device.

[0025] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 4 The mixing chamber 7 is rotatably connected to a mixing auger 8, which is driven by a motor 9 fixed on one side of the mixing chamber 7. The bottom surface of the mixing chamber 7 is provided with a discharge pipe 10, and a valve 11 is provided on the discharge pipe 10. The bottom plate of the mixing chamber 7 is an arc-shaped plate with a downward convex center. The discharge pipe 10 is located at the lowest point of the bottom surface of the mixing chamber 7, which can use gravity to make the mixed feed more smoothly collect into the discharge pipe 10 for discharge, reducing residue.

[0026] Combined with appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 The liquid addition cylinder 12 is located above the mixing tank 7 and is driven by the screw driver 13 fixed on the mixing tank 7 to move along the extension direction of the mixing auger 8. Its bottom surface is provided with a liquid outlet pipe 14, and a valve 15 is installed on the liquid outlet pipe 14. A battery 17, which supplies power to the motor 9 and the screw driver 13, is fixedly installed on the side wall of the mixing tank 7, eliminating the limitation of an external power source and allowing the device to be flexibly moved and used in the breeding area, adapting to different operating environments.

[0027] The specific implementation of this utility model: The operator holds the handle 5 and presses it downwards to lift the support leg 4 off the ground. Using the rollers 6 for support, the device is pushed by the push rod 3, and moved to the designated working position with the help of the rollers 6, until the support leg 4 contacts the ground. The anti-slip pad 16 stabilizes the device. Solid feed ingredients are added into the mixing tank 7, and then the motor 9 powered by the battery 17 is started, driving the mixing auger 8 to start rotating. Next, according to the feed ratio, liquid additives are added to the liquid addition cylinder 12, valve 15 is opened, and the screw drive 13 is started, causing the liquid addition cylinder 12 to move along the extension direction of the mixing auger 8, allowing the liquid to drip evenly into the solid feed in the mixing tank 7 through the liquid outlet pipe 14, where the mixing auger 8 quickly stirs and mixes it. After mixing is complete, turn off motor 9 and screw drive 13, and open valve 11 on discharge pipe 10. Since the bottom plate 1 of mixing box 7 is arc-shaped and discharge pipe 10 is located at the lowest point, the mixed feed will be discharged smoothly through discharge pipe 10 under the action of gravity. It can be collected directly for feeding. After the operation is completed, close valve 11.
