Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture cage technology, and in particular to an anti-slip footplate for aquaculture cages that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] Platforms are essential components of marine aquaculture cages / fish rafts, primarily used to facilitate the work of cage operators. Typically, after the aquaculture cages / fish rafts are assembled, the netting is either directly tied to the platform or ropes are threaded through holes drilled in the platform. However, drilling holes somewhat damages the overall strength of the platform, thus requiring it to have high strength. Traditional platforms are often made of metal or wood, but these suffer from poor corrosion resistance, susceptibility to rust or mold, and relatively heavy weight. Currently, most platforms are made of plastic or wood-plastic composite boards, but these have issues such as lower strength and shorter lifespan. Furthermore, to ensure the platform surface is slip-resistant and safe for cage operators, secondary processing is usually required to create regular or irregular grooves or ridges for anti-slip properties. However, after a period of use, the anti-slip layer easily peels off and cannot be repaired on-site, leading to the failure of the anti-slip performance. To address this issue, Chinese patent CN220607003U discloses an anti-slip tread for aquaculture net cages that allows for easy net replacement. The tread surface is roughened by combining and removing the release fabric, a simple method that provides excellent anti-slip performance.

[0003] The aforementioned existing technologies suffer from problems in practical applications, such as the detachment of the anti-slip layer due to seawater erosion, resulting in a short service life. At the same time, the stability of the cages at sea is insufficient, making it difficult to replace and repair the anti-slip layer. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem of the difficulty in conveniently replacing anti-slip pedals in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An easy-to-install anti-slip footplate for aquaculture cages includes a bracket with an anti-slip footplate on the bracket. The bottom of the anti-slip footplate has several locking blocks. The bracket has a mounting plate with several locking slots that engage with the locking blocks. An unlocking component is located within the bracket. The unlocking component includes a top block located within the bracket and slidably connected to it. An mounting rod is located within the bracket, and a slider is mounted on the mounting rod. A connecting rod is connected between the slider and the top block, and the connecting rod is hinged to the slider. A spring is located between the mounting rod and the slider. A threaded hole is located on the top block, and a lifting rod is mounted on the threaded hole. A through hole is located on the mounting plate.

[0007] Preferably, the top block has a protrusion that is penetrated by the threaded hole, the protrusion is slidably connected to the through hole, and a sealing ring is provided between the protrusion and the through hole.

[0008] Preferably, the locking block includes a first shaft segment and a second shaft segment. The first shaft segment is larger than the second shaft segment. The first shaft segment is connected to the bottom of the anti-slip pedal. The first shaft segment is connected to the second shaft segment. The second shaft segment is provided with a first chamfer. The locking block is provided with a gap. The gap passes through the second shaft segment, and one end of the gap extends into the first shaft segment.

[0009] Preferably, the top block has a plurality of sliding holes inside, and the entrance of each sliding hole has a second chamfer, which gradually decreases in size from the entrance of the sliding hole inward.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the anti-slip pedal is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the bracket is provided with a mounting block.

[0012] The beneficial effects proposed by this utility model are as follows:

[0013] When the anti-slip pedal is installed on the mounting plate, the locking block engages with the locking slot. At this time, the lifting rod can be screwed on to separate it from the threaded hole. When the anti-slip pedal needs to be removed, the lifting rod is threaded into the threaded hole, and then the lifting rod is lifted upwards, causing the top block to rise upwards. The top block pushes the locking block outwards from the locking slot until the locking block separates from the slot, thereby separating the anti-slip pedal from the mounting plate. The lifting rod is then removed, and the anti-slip pedal is taken off. During the above process, as the top block is lifted, it drives the slider to slide on the mounting rod via the connecting rod. The slider compresses the spring until the anti-slip pedal separates from the mounting plate. After the force on the lifting rod is released, the spring releases the elastic force generated by the compression, pushing the slider into the bracket. Through the connection of the connecting rod, the top block is pushed back into the bracket, completing the reset of the unlocking component. The above process enables the rapid installation and removal of the anti-slip pedal, improving the efficiency of replacing the anti-slip pedal in marine aquaculture cages.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 7An easy-to-install anti-slip footplate for aquaculture cages includes a bracket 1, an anti-slip footplate 2 on the bracket 1, several locking blocks 3 at the bottom of the anti-slip footplate 2, an mounting plate 4 on the bracket 1, several locking slots 5 on the mounting plate 4, the locking slots 5 engaging with the locking blocks 3, and an unlocking component inside the bracket 1. The unlocking component includes a top block 6 located inside the bracket 1 and slidably connected to the bracket 1. An mounting rod 7 is provided inside the bracket 1, a slider 8 is provided on the mounting rod 7, a connecting rod 9 is provided between the slider 8 and the top block 6, the connecting rod 9 is hinged to the slider 8, a spring 10 is provided between the mounting rod 7 and the slider 8, a threaded hole 11 is provided on the top block 6, a lifting rod 12 is provided on the threaded hole 11, and a through hole 23 is provided on the mounting plate 4. Specifically, when the anti-slip pedal 2 is installed on the mounting plate 4, the locking block 3 engages with the locking groove 5. At this time, the lifting rod 12 can be screwed on to separate the lifting rod 12 from the threaded hole 11. When it is necessary to disassemble the anti-slip pedal 2, the lifting rod 12 is threaded into the threaded hole 11, and then the lifting rod 12 is lifted upward, causing the top block 6 to rise upward. The top block 6 pushes the locking block 3 outward from the locking groove 5 until the locking block 3 is separated from the locking groove 5, thereby separating the anti-slip pedal 2 from the mounting plate 4. Then the lifting rod 12 is disassembled, and the anti-slip pedal 2 is removed. During the above process, as the top block 6 is lifted, it drives the slider 8 to slide upward on the mounting rod 7 via the connecting rod 9. At this time, the slider 8 compresses the spring 10 until the anti-slip pedal 2 separates from the mounting plate 4. After the force on the lifting rod 12 is released, the spring 10 releases the elastic force generated by the compression, pushing the slider 8 into the bracket 1. Through the connection of the connecting rod 9, the top block 6 is pushed back into the bracket 1, completing the reset of the unlocking component. The above process enables the rapid installation and removal of the anti-slip pedal 2, improving the efficiency of replacing the anti-slip pedal 2 in marine aquaculture cages.

[0024] Furthermore, in the above process, the top block 6 is provided with multiple through slots and other related weight reduction designs to reduce the weight of the top block 6, thereby reducing the load on the bracket 1 by the unlocking component and improving the service life of the bracket 1.

[0025] Specifically, the top block 6 is provided with a protrusion 18, which is penetrated by the threaded hole 11. The protrusion 18 is slidably connected to the through hole 23, and a sealing ring 13 is provided between the protrusion 18 and the through hole 23. When the top block 6 is raised or lowered, the protrusion 18 slides within the through hole 23. Since the protrusion 18 and the through hole 23 are connected by a shaft hole, seawater can easily seep into them in a marine environment. By installing the sealing ring 13 between the protrusion 18 and the through hole 23, the intrusion of seawater into the bracket 1 through the through hole 23 is reduced without affecting the movement of the lifting block, thus preventing corrosion of the unlocking component.

[0026] Specifically, the locking block 3 includes a first shaft segment 20 and a second shaft segment 21. The radial dimension of the second shaft segment 21 is larger than that of the first shaft segment 20. The first shaft segment 20 is connected to the bottom of the anti-slip pedal 2, and the first shaft segment 20 is connected to the second shaft segment 21. The second shaft segment 21 is provided with a first chamfer 19. The locking block 3 is provided with a gap 15, which penetrates the second shaft segment 21, and one end of the gap 15 extends into the first shaft segment 20. When the locking block 3 is engaged with the slot 5, the end face of the first shaft segment 20 abuts against the bottom of the mounting plate 4. Since the size of the second shaft segment 21 is larger than that of the slot 5, the second shaft segment 21 is used to limit the locking block 3, further improving the stability of the engagement between the locking block 3 and the slot 5 and reducing the risk of disengagement during engagement. Furthermore, since the end face of the second shaft segment 21 is larger than the size of the slot 5, during the separation process of the block 3 from the slot 5, the second shaft segment 21 needs to be reduced to a size smaller than or equal to that of the slot 5. Through the gap 15, the second shaft segment 21 can be compressed in the axial direction, thereby allowing the block 3 to pass through the slot 5.

[0027] Specifically, the top block 6 has several sliding holes 14 inside. A second chamfer 22 is provided at the entrance of each sliding hole 14, and the second chamfer 22 gradually decreases in size inwards from the entrance of the sliding hole 14. To allow the second shaft segment 21 to pass through the top block 6 and reduce its size, a sliding hole 14 corresponding to the locking block 3 is provided on the top block 6. The second chamfer 22 is provided inside the sliding hole 14, and the second chamfer 22 matches the first chamfer 19. When the top block 6 is lifted upwards, the second shaft segment 21 gradually penetrates into the sliding hole 14. Due to the second chamfer 22, the size of the slider 8 gradually decreases from the entrance into the hole. When the first chamfer 19 abuts against the second chamfer 22, as the second shaft segment 21 continues to penetrate deeper, the second chamfer 22 gradually compresses the first chamfer 19, and combined with the gap 15, the radial size of the second shaft segment 21 is reduced to a size that allows it to pass through the locking slot 5.

[0028] Specifically, the surface of the anti-slip pedal 2 is provided with anti-slip texture 16. The anti-slip texture 16 can increase the coefficient of friction of the anti-slip pedal 2 and improve its anti-slip ability.

[0029] Specifically, the bottom of the support frame 1 is provided with a mounting block 17. The mounting block 17 can install the support frame 1 onto the truss of the aquaculture cage or aquaculture platform.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
