Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and in particular to a protective cabin for shrimp during the molting period. Background Technology
[0002] Molting is an important physiological phenomenon in shrimp growth and development, similar to humans changing clothes. The shrimp's exoskeleton (shell) is a hard outer protective layer, but it cannot expand as the shrimp grows. Therefore, shrimp must periodically shed their old shells and grow new, larger shells to continue growing.
[0003] Shrimp require a molting platform and a relatively quiet, independent environment for molting. This process also demands adequate dissolved oxygen and nutrient levels in the water, necessitating the addition of oxygenating agents and minerals. Current technologies lack protective enclosures for shrimp during molting, leading to increased mortality rates. Therefore, this invention proposes a protective enclosure for shrimp during molting to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0022] Example 1
[0023] according to Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes a shrimp molting protection chamber, including a chamber body 1, mounting brackets 2, and molting platform frames 3. Mounting brackets 2 are symmetrically connected to one side wall of the chamber body 1, and the mounting brackets 2 are connected to a ground mounting foundation. One side of the chamber body 1 has an open structure. Multiple sets of molting platform frames 3 are provided inside the chamber body 1. Each molting platform frame 3 includes a ramp plate 301, a first molting cover 302, and a second molting cover 303. The first and second molting covers 302 and 303 are respectively provided on the two side walls of the ramp plate 301. Multiple sets of the first and second molting covers 302 and 303 are provided along the length of the ramp plate 301. A through-slot 4 is provided at the top of the chamber body 1, and a supplementary agent dispensing device is provided in the through-slot 4. A dissolved oxygen monitor 5 is provided on the top of the chamber body 1 on one side of the through-slot 4, and the detection end of the dissolved oxygen monitor 5 extends into the interior of the chamber body 1.
[0024] When using the shrimp molting protection chamber of this utility model, the chamber 1 is connected to the ground installation foundation through the installation bracket 2. Then, multiple sets of molting platform frames 3 are installed inside the chamber 1. When the shrimp molts, they will automatically find a suitable molting location and climb up the slope plate 301 to the first hidden molting cover 302 and the second hidden molting cover 303 at different heights to molt. During the molting process, the dissolved oxygen level of the pond water is monitored by the dissolved oxygen monitor 5. When the dissolved oxygen level is insufficient, the dissolved oxygen level and other nutrients are replenished by adding supplements to the pond water in the chamber 1 through the supplementation device.
[0025] The mounting bracket 2 includes a horizontal plate 201, a vertical plate 202, a first fixing hole 203, and a second fixing hole 204. The vertical plate 202 is located at one bottom end of the horizontal plate 201. The horizontal plate 201 has the first fixing hole 203, and the vertical plate 202 has the second fixing hole 204. Multiple first fixing holes 203 and multiple second fixing holes 204 are provided. A first fixing bolt 205 is installed in the first fixing hole 203 to connect to the ground mounting base, and a second fixing bolt 206 is installed in the second fixing hole 204 to connect to the cabin 1. When the mounting bracket 2 of this utility model is used to connect the ground mounting base and the cabin 1, the first fixing bolt 205 can be connected to the first fixing hole 203 at different positions before connecting to the ground mounting base. The cabin 1 can also have its height adjusted on the vertical plate 202 by connecting the cabin 1 to the second fixing hole 204 at different heights using the second fixing bolt 206.
[0026] The supplement dispensing device includes a storage cylinder 6, a rotating shaft 7, a rotating wheel 8, and a discharge port 9.
