Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture, specifically to an aquaculture feed additive. Background Technology

[0002] Aquaculture is a production activity involving the breeding, cultivation, and harvesting of aquatic plants and animals under human control. It generally includes the entire process from seedling to aquatic product under artificial feeding and management. During the aquaculture process, auxiliary materials need to be mixed. When using existing mixing structures, auxiliary material additives are required.

[0003] Existing feed additives, such as the one disclosed in CN222586434U (a feed additive for aquaculture), use an electric push rod to raise and lower an adjusting plate, buffer assembly, and feeding rack, allowing for flexible height adjustment of the feeding rack. A vibrator causes the feeding rack to sway, thus promoting the flow of various feed additives, aiding in mixing and guiding the feeding operation, thereby improving feeding efficiency. In use, rotating the bolts, with the help of the threaded sleeve, moves the bolts and support bases downwards, bringing the support bases into contact with the ground, thus fixing the feed additive to the ground. However, during use, the vibrator causes the feeding rack to sway, and the electric push rod moves the feeding rack upwards to a suitable height. When the feeding rack is raised to a high height and swaying, relying solely on a few sets of support bases to contact the ground for fixation results in an unstable fixing structure. Over time, the feed additive inevitably tilts, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, we propose an aquaculture feed additive. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an aquaculture feed additive, including a fixed plate, which is fixedly installed on the top of a base frame. A hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed between the fixed plate and the base frame. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder slides through the inner side of the fixed plate and is fixedly connected to a lifting plate. The base frame is stably fixed to the ground by four sets of guide fixing components, which also provide guidance for the up and down movement of the lifting plate. A shaking component is provided on the lifting plate. The shaking component, together with a vibrator installed at the bottom of the feed rack, causes the feed rack to shake and dispense feed.

[0005] Preferably, the base frame is equipped with four sets of casters, and all four sets of casters have a self-locking structure.

[0006] Preferably, the guide fixing assembly includes a threaded sleeve, the outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the inner side of the base frame, the inner side of which is threadedly connected to a positioning tube, a positioning ring and a handwheel are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the positioning tube, a suction cup is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the positioning tube, the suction cup communicates with the inner cavity of the positioning tube, a piston is movably installed in the inner cavity of the positioning tube, a guide rod is fixedly connected to the top of the piston, and the guide rod slides through the inner side of the fixing plate and is fixedly connected to the lifting plate.

[0007] Preferably, the shaking assembly includes four sets of stabilizing rods, all of which slide through the inner side of the lifting plate. Four sets of springs are installed between the lifting plate and the feeding frame. The four sets of stabilizing rods pass through the middle of the four sets of springs respectively. A set of limiting rings is fixedly installed at the bottom of each of the four sets of stabilizing rods.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the feeding rack is an inclined slope, a partition is fixedly installed at the top of the feeding rack, and a discharge port is provided at one end of the partition and the feeding rack.

[0009] Preferably, a support frame is fixedly installed on the partition frame, and multiple sets of material boxes are fixedly installed on the support frame.

[0010] Preferably, each of the material bins has a discharge port at the bottom, and the discharge port is aligned with the feeding rack.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: When using this invention, turning the handwheel will cause the positioning tube to rotate. The rotation of the positioning tube will cause the positioning tube, positioning ring, and suction cup to gradually move down until the positioning ring is tightly attached to the ground and the handwheel cannot be turned. This will stop the entire device on the ground. At this time, the suction cup will also be attached to the ground, and the piston will move up to extract the air from the suction cup, allowing the suction cup to firmly adhere to the ground, thus enabling the entire device to stay stably on the ground.

[0012] When this utility model is in use, the hydraulic cylinder is activated to move the lifting plate upward. The upward movement of the lifting plate moves the feeding rack to a suitable height. The upward movement of the lifting plate will also move the four sets of guide rods upward. Since the guide rods slide through the inner side of the fixed plate, the lifting plate can move upward stably. The upward movement of the guide rods will cause the piston to move upward along the inner wall of the positioning rod. The upward movement of the piston will draw out the air in the suction cup. The higher the feeding rack moves upward, the farther the distance between the piston and the suction cup and the larger the space will be. This will make the pressure between the piston and the suction cup lower and lower, so that the suction cup can firmly adhere to the ground, thus making the entire device stay stably on the ground.

[0015] 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.

[0016] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 This utility model discloses an aquaculture feed additive device, comprising a fixed plate 1, which is fixedly installed on the top of a base frame 2. A hydraulic cylinder 3 is fixedly installed between the fixed plate 1 and the base frame 2. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 3 slides through the inner side of the fixed plate 1 and is fixedly connected to a lifting plate 4. The base frame 2 is stably fixed to the ground by four sets of guide fixing components 5, which also provide guidance for the up and down movement of the lifting plate 4. A shaking component 6 is provided on the lifting plate 4. The shaking component 6, together with a vibrator 8 installed at the bottom of the feeding rack 7, causes the feeding rack 7 to shake and feed.

[0017] The base frame 2 is equipped with four sets of casters 9, all of which have a self-locking structure. The casters 9 at the bottom of the base frame 2 make it easy to push the entire device to a suitable position and fix it in place during use. It should be noted that the casters 9 with the self-locking structure are common existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0018] The guide fixing assembly 5 includes a threaded sleeve 501. The outer wall of the threaded sleeve 501 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the base frame 2. The inner side of the threaded sleeve 501 is threadedly connected to a positioning tube 502. A positioning ring 503 and a handwheel 507 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the positioning tube 502. A suction cup 504 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the positioning tube 502. The suction cup 504 communicates with the inner cavity of the positioning tube 502. A piston 505 is movably installed in the inner cavity of the positioning tube 502. A guide rod 506 is fixedly connected to the top of the piston 505. The guide rod 506 slides through the inner side of the fixing plate 1 and is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 4. When the device is moved to a suitable position, manually turning the handwheel 507 will drive the positioning tube 502 to rotate. The rotation of the positioning tube 502 will cause the positioning tube 502, the positioning ring 503 and the suction cup 504 to gradually move down until the positioning ring 503 is tightly attached to the ground and the handwheel 507 can no longer be turned. At this time, the suction cup 504 will also be attached to the ground.

[0019] The shaking assembly 6 includes four sets of stabilizing rods 601, all of which slide through the inner side of the lifting plate 4. Four sets of springs 602 are installed between the lifting plate 4 and the feeding rack 7. The four sets of stabilizing rods 601 pass through the middle of the four sets of springs 602 respectively. A set of limiting rings 603 are fixedly installed at the bottom of each of the four sets of stabilizing rods 601. In use, the shaking assembly 6, in conjunction with the vibrator 8, can make the feeding rack 7 shake to feed materials.

[0020] The top of the feeding rack 7 is an inclined slope, and a partition frame 11 is fixedly installed at the top of the feeding rack 7. A discharge port 12 is provided at one end of the partition frame 11 and the feeding rack 7. After various auxiliary materials fall onto the feeding rack 7, they are blocked by the partition frame 11, so that the auxiliary materials can only be discharged from the discharge port 12. The top of the feeding rack 7 is an inclined slope, so that the auxiliary materials can slide down the slope and be discharged from the discharge port 12.

[0021] A support frame 13 is fixedly installed on the partition frame 11, and multiple sets of material boxes 10 are fixedly installed on the support frame 13; the support frame 13 makes the installation structure of the material boxes 10 stable.

[0022] Each of the material bins 10 has a discharge port at the bottom, and the discharge port is aligned with the feeding rack 7. In use, different auxiliary materials are placed into different material bins 10, and the auxiliary materials in the material bins 10 can be discharged from the discharge port onto the feeding rack 7. It should be noted that in use, a control valve can be installed at the discharge port at the bottom of the material bin 10. The corresponding control valve is controlled to work according to the feeding ratio, and the auxiliary materials in different material bins 10 are proportionally drawn into the surface of the feeding rack 7.

[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, it is convenient to push the entire device to a suitable position and fix it initially. After the device is moved to the suitable position, manually turning the handwheel 507 will drive the positioning tube 502 to rotate. The rotation of the positioning tube 502 will cause the positioning tube 502, the positioning ring 503 and the suction cup 504 to gradually move down until the positioning ring 503 is tightly attached to the ground and the handwheel 507 can no longer be turned, thus stopping the entire device on the ground. At this time, the suction cup 504 will also be attached to the ground. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 3 is activated to move the lifting plate 4 upward. The upward movement of the lifting plate 4 moves the feeding rack 7 to a suitable height. The upward movement of the lifting plate 4 will move the four sets of guide rods 506 upward. Since the guide rods 506 slide through the inner side of the fixed plate 1, the lifting plate 4 can move upward stably. The upward movement of the guide rods 506 will move the piston 505 upward along the inner wall of the positioning rod 502. The upward movement of the piston 505 will draw out the air in the suction cup 504. The higher the feeding rack 7 is moved, the farther the distance between the piston 505 and the suction cup 504 and the larger the space will be. This will make the pressure between the piston 505 and the suction cup 504 lower and lower, so that the suction cup 504 can firmly adhere to the ground, thus making the entire device stay stably on the ground. Different auxiliary materials are placed into different material bins 10. The auxiliary materials in the material bins 10 can be discharged from the discharge port onto the feeding rack 7. It should be noted that during use, a control valve can be installed at the discharge port at the bottom of the material bins 10. The corresponding control valve is controlled according to the feeding ratio to draw the auxiliary materials from different material bins 10 into the surface of the feeding rack 7 in proportion. The vibrator 8 is started to make the feeding rack 7 vibrate. Under the elastic action of the spring 602, the feeding rack 7 shakes up and down. After the various auxiliary materials fall onto the feeding rack 7, they are blocked by the partition frame 11 so that the auxiliary materials can only be discharged from the discharge port 12. The top of the feeding rack 7 is an inclined slope, which allows the auxiliary materials to slide down the slope. During the process of the auxiliary materials sliding down, the various auxiliary materials are initially mixed together under the action of shaking and discharged from the discharge port 12.

[0024] It should be noted that when using hydraulic cylinder 3, it needs to be used in conjunction with a dedicated hydraulic pump, hydraulic pipeline, etc., and the hydraulic pump and its controller need to be connected to a suitable external power supply; it should also be noted that when using vibrator 8, it needs to be used in conjunction with its dedicated controller connected to a suitable external power supply, and its operation is controlled by its controller.

[0025] The above description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present utility model. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims submitted by the present utility model.
