Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of eel farming technology, specifically a quantitative feeding device for eel farming. Background Technology
[0002] The swamp eel is a high-quality freshwater fish with a high market price and high demand. The number of swamp eels caught in natural waters is far from meeting people's needs, so swamp eel farming has great potential. However, for ease of management and operation, artificially farmed swamp eels are generally fed during the daytime.
[0003] Eels prefer live bait, especially animal-based feed. Common feeds include small fish, shrimp, snails, earthworms, clam meat, and snail meat. Feeding eels should adhere to the "four fixed" principles: fixed quality, fixed quantity, fixed time, and fixed location. Current feeding methods mostly involve manually placing feed at the feeding point, which cannot achieve precise, timed, and quantitative feeding and wastes a significant amount of manpower. Therefore, we propose a quantitative feeding device for eel farming. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of existing methods that rely on manual feeding at feeding points, which cannot achieve precise feeding at fixed times and in fixed quantities and waste a lot of manpower, this utility model provides a quantitative feeding device for eel farming. It can realize quantitative feeding of feed, which not only saves a lot of manpower, but also effectively achieves the advantages of quantitative feeding of feed, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A quantitative feeding device for eel farming includes a feed box, a sealing cover coaxially connected to the top of the feed box, and a connecting pipe coaxially connected to the top of the sealing cover. An electric push rod is coaxially connected inside the connecting pipe, and the free end of the electric push rod passes through the sealing cover and extends to its bottom. A pressure plate is coaxially connected to the free end of the electric push rod. The diameter of the pressure plate is equal to the inner diameter of the feed box, and multiple guide rods penetrating the sealing cover are vertically connected to the top of the pressure plate. Multiple through holes are opened at the bottom of the feed box, and a tapered tube is coaxially provided at the bottom of the through holes, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the feed box.
[0006] Optionally, a first skirt is fixedly connected to the bottom edge of the sealing cover, and a second skirt is coaxially connected to the outer wall of the material container, with a U-shaped plate rotatably connected to the bottom of the second skirt; Furthermore, a second limiting block is fastened to the top of the first skirt edge, and a first limiting block is fastened to the upper end of the U-shaped plate, with the first limiting block and the second limiting block engaging with each other.
[0007] Optionally, the lower end of the U-shaped plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of the second skirt via a hinge seat.
[0008] Optionally, a ring-shaped rubber block connects the first skirt edge and the second skirt edge.
[0009] Optionally, it also includes an L-shaped bracket, with the top of the connecting tube connected to the bottom of one end of the L-shaped bracket, and the bottom of the other end of the L-shaped bracket tightly fitted to the base, and the base rotatably connected to the top of the support.
[0010] Optionally, connecting seats are fixedly attached to both the top and bottom of the connecting tube, and the two connecting seats are respectively connected to the sealing cap and the L-shaped bracket.
[0011] Optionally, a U-shaped rod is fastened to the side wall of the L-shaped bracket.
[0012] Optionally, a control box may also be included, which contains a controller to which the electric actuator is connected.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model controls the electric push rod to push the pressure plate downward, which can push the feed in the feeding box downward, so that the feed inside can move downward from the conical tube. Since the number of conical tubes and the inner diameter of the feeding box are fixed, the feed can be quantitatively fed by controlling the height of the pressure plate descent. This not only saves a lot of manpower, but also effectively realizes the quantitative feeding of feed. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a quantitative feeding device for eel farming, including a feed box 9, a sealing cover 2 coaxially connected to the top of the feed box 9, a first skirt 3 fixedly connected to the bottom edge of the sealing cover 2, and a second skirt 8 coaxially connected to the outer wall of the feed box 9, with a U-shaped plate 4 rotatably connected to the bottom of the second skirt 8; the lower end of the U-shaped plate 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the second skirt 8 through a hinge seat 5. A second limiting block 15 is fastened to the top of the first skirt 3, and a first limiting block 14 is fastened to the upper end of the U-shaped plate 4, with the first limiting block 14 and the second limiting block 15 engaging. like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the feed to be fed is crushed and placed in the feed container 9. The sealing cover 2 is placed on top of the feed container 9 to seal the feed. The U-shaped plate 4 is rotated so that the first limiting block 14 and the second limiting block 15 on it are engaged, which can realize the sealing connection between the sealing cover 2 and the feed container 9. At the same time, in order to further improve the sealing performance between the sealing cover 2 and the feed container 9, an annular rubber block 16 is connected between the first skirt 3 and the second skirt 8.
[0022] like Figure 2 , 3As shown, a connecting pipe 1 is coaxially connected to the top of the sealing cover 2. An electric push rod 13 is coaxially connected inside the connecting pipe 1. The free end of the electric push rod 13 passes through the sealing cover 2 and extends to its bottom. A pressure plate 10 is coaxially connected to the free end of the electric push rod 13. The diameter of the pressure plate 10 is equal to the inner diameter of the material container 9. To ensure that the pressure plate 10 slides stably inside the material container 9, multiple guide rods 12 that pass through the sealing cover 2 are vertically connected to the top of the pressure plate 10. Multiple through holes 11 are opened at the bottom of the material container 9. A tapered tube 6 is coaxially provided at the bottom of the through hole 11, and the tapered tube 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the material container 9. In summary, this quantitative feeding device for eel farming, when in use, the electric push rod 13 controls the pressure plate 10 to move downward, which pushes the feed in the feed container 9 downward, and then moves downward from the conical tube 6. Since the number of conical tubes 6 is fixed and the inner diameter of the feed container 9 is fixed, quantitative feeding can be achieved by controlling the height of the pressure plate 10's descent. This not only saves a lot of manpower, but also effectively achieves quantitative feeding. The device has a simple structure and strong practicality.
