Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a turning device for three-dimensional aquaculture and its three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism, belonging to the category of insect aquaculture mechanisms. Background Technology
[0002] Vertical insect farming (such as multi-layered rack and tower systems) significantly improves stocking density and efficiency through vertical space utilization. However, its enclosed / semi-enclosed structure also presents new challenges in feed distribution and environmental control. Insect feed (such as kitchen waste and agricultural waste) is often high in organic matter and moisture. In the enclosed environment of vertical farming, local compaction or accumulation can lead to anaerobic fermentation, producing toxic gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide. Turning the feed can break up the compacted layers, increase the contact area between the feed and air, promote aerobic microbial activity, accelerate the decomposition of organic matter, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, and reduce the incidence of disease in the population. At the same time, the nutrients in the feed are easily degraded due to local accumulation; turning the feed can accelerate nutrient diffusion, ensuring that insects in all areas receive balanced nutrition. Therefore, turning the feed plays an important role in vertical insect farming. Existing material turning mechanisms are mainly divided into two types: active turning mechanisms, such as turners, spiral conveyors, or track-mounted mobile turning carts, etc. These devices are bulky, and for three-dimensional insect farming equipment with a layer spacing of 10-50cm, there is insufficient space for their installation and operation. Passive turning mechanisms, on the other hand, fix rakes, scrapers, etc., inside the three-dimensional insect farming equipment, passively turning the material as it enters and exits, resulting in low efficiency. Therefore, developing a turning mechanism suitable for three-dimensional farming equipment with limited space is of great significance. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model provides a turning device and a three-dimensional aquaculture structure, which solves the problems of existing turning mechanisms being large in size and unsuitable for small-scale three-dimensional insect aquaculture equipment, as well as the low efficiency and limited applicability of passive turning mechanisms.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A three-dimensional aquaculture feed-turning device includes several feed-digging mechanisms, several sets of guiding mechanisms, several traction ropes, and a forward / reverse power mechanism. Each feed-digging rod is equipped with several feed-digging teeth, and each feed-digging rod is correspondingly equipped with several sets of guiding mechanisms. Each set of guiding mechanisms includes at least two movable guide wheels, which are installed on both sides of the three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism. The feed-digging mechanisms are installed together with the traction ropes. The two ends of each traction rope are fixed to the forward / reverse power mechanism in opposite positions. When the forward / reverse power mechanism moves, one end of the traction rope rotates forward to perform a rope-retracting operation, and the other end of the traction rope rotates in the reverse direction to perform a rope-releasing operation. One end of the traction rope passes around each guiding mechanism in sequence and is then fixed together with the forward / reverse power mechanism. The other end of the traction rope is wound around and fixed to the forward / reverse power mechanism, and the length of the traction rope wound around the forward / reverse power mechanism is not less than the maximum moving distance of the feed-digging mechanism. The forward / reverse power mechanism can drive the traction ropes to achieve the reciprocating motion of the feed-digging rods.

[0013] Furthermore, preferably: there are two guide support mechanisms, which are located at both ends of the boom.
[0014] This invention also provides a three-dimensional insect breeding structure, including several of the material turning devices described in this invention.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: The traction rope system and modular guide design of this invention achieve a compact structure, significantly saving space.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are also described.
[0019] Example 1 like Figure 1-4 As shown, a three-dimensional aquaculture material turning device includes several material-digging mechanisms, several sets of guiding mechanisms, several traction ropes 3, and a forward and reverse rotation power mechanism. The function of the material-digging mechanisms is to turn or disturb the material under the drive of the traction ropes, effectively improving the material's air permeability. The specific structure of the material-digging mechanisms can be selected according to the above functions. The material-digging mechanism used in this embodiment includes a digging rod 1 and several digging teeth 2 set on the digging rod 1, and the digging rod 1 is installed together with the traction ropes 3.
[0020] The shape and material of the derrick 1 can be set according to actual needs. Generally, a corrosion-resistant, high-strength, and lightweight material is selected. In this embodiment, a square tube is used. Feed-digging teeth 2 are fixed to the derrick 1. The number and structure of the feed-digging teeth 2 are set according to the specific material. In this embodiment, the number of feed-digging teeth 2 is 16, and the shape is a straight round rod. The number of derricks 1 is set according to the number of layers of the three-dimensional aquaculture structure. Generally, one derrick 1 is used per layer; in this embodiment, there are 10 derricks. The derricks 1 can be set on one side of the three-dimensional aquaculture structure or staggered on both sides. It is preferred to set them on both sides of the three-dimensional aquaculture structure so that the traction rope 3 is subjected to uniform force during movement, which can effectively improve the equipment lifespan.
[0021] Each of the aforementioned booms 1 is equipped with several sets of guiding mechanisms. The function of the guiding mechanisms is to limit the direction of rotation of the traction rope 3, enabling one traction rope 3 to drive the movement of multiple booms 1. The number of sets of guiding mechanisms corresponding to each boom 1 is set according to the length of the boom 1 and the material conditions, with each boom 1 having at least one set of guiding mechanisms. To ensure smooth operation of the booms 1, this embodiment uses guiding mechanisms near both ends of the boom 1, which effectively improves the operational stability of the boom 1.
[0022] Each set of guiding mechanisms includes at least two movable guide wheels 5, which are installed on both sides of the three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism. The movable guide wheels 5 can be installed inside or outside the three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism. Preferably, they are installed outside the three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism.
[0023] The guide wheel mounting mechanism includes a guide wheel mounting base 9 with a guide hole and a guide wheel bracket 10. The guide wheel mounting base 9 and the guide wheel bracket 10 are fixed together, and the movable guide wheel 5 and the fixed guide wheel are mounted on the guide wheel bracket 10.
[0024] The number of moving guide wheels 5 in each group of guide mechanisms can be set according to the width of the three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism; generally, two are sufficient.
[0025] The traction rope can be made of different materials depending on the actual needs, such as natural fiber rope (hemp rope, cotton rope, etc.), synthetic fiber rope (nylon rope, polypropylene rope, etc.) and metal rope (steel wire rope, etc.). In this embodiment, steel wire rope is used.
[0026] The derrick 1 is fixed together with the traction rope 3. The movement of the traction rope 3 drives the derrick 1 to move, thereby performing the material turning operation.
[0027] The two ends of each traction rope 3 are fixed in opposite positions to the forward and reverse power mechanism, so that during the rotation of the power mechanism, one end of the traction rope 3 rotates in the forward direction to perform the rope winding operation, and the other end of the traction rope 3 rotates in the reverse direction to perform the rope unwinding operation.
[0028] One end of the traction rope 3 passes around each guide mechanism in sequence and is then fixed together with the forward and reverse power mechanism. The other end of the traction rope 3 is wrapped around and fixed to the forward and reverse power mechanism. The length of the traction rope 3 wrapped around the forward and reverse power mechanism is not less than the maximum moving distance of the boom 1. The forward and reverse power mechanism can drive the traction rope 3 to realize the reciprocating motion of the boom 1.
[0029] Each set of guiding mechanisms corresponds to one traction rope 3. In this embodiment, each boom 1 is equipped with two sets of guiding mechanisms, so there are two traction ropes 3, which are set at both ends of the boom 1.
[0030] The function of the forward and reverse power mechanism is to provide power for the traction rope 3 to rotate in both directions. It generally includes a forward and reverse motor 7 and a drum 6. The forward and reverse motor 7 is mounted together with the drum 6, and both ends of the traction rope 3 are fixed to the two sides of the drum 6. The power mechanism can be selected from suitable mechanisms capable of achieving forward and reverse rotation, such as a winch, as needed.
[0031] During the operation of the forward and reverse reversing power mechanism, both ends of the traction rope 3 are fixed to the drum 6, but their directions of movement are different. This poses a risk of mutual interference between the traction ropes 3, reducing efficiency or damaging the equipment. To solve the above technical problems... The reversible power mechanism also includes a traction rope 3 guide mechanism, which is a steel wire guide wheel 8. One end of the traction rope 3 is fixed to the reversible power mechanism via the steel wire guide wheel 8. By setting the traction rope 3 guide mechanism, the distance between the two ends of the traction rope 3 can be increased, avoiding the problem of mutual interference caused by the two ends of the traction rope 3 being too close together.
[0032] During the movement of the derrick 1 by the traction rope 3, uneven material moisture content and thickness cause uneven force on the shoveling teeth 2, leading to swaying and damage. To solve this problem, this embodiment provides several guide support mechanisms 4 on the derrick 1, which are installed on the three-dimensional aquaculture mechanism. The function of the guide support mechanisms 4 is to limit the movement of the derrick 1, ensuring smooth movement. Equipment with this function, such as a straight guide rail, can be used. The mechanism used in this embodiment is as follows: the guide support mechanism 4 includes a hanging rail 42, a hanging wheel 43, and a hanging rod 44. The hanging wheel 43 is disposed within the hanging rail 42, and the hanging rod 44 is fixed to the hanging wheel 43. A shoveling connector 45 is connected to the hanging rod 44, and a hanging rail bracket 41 is provided on the hanging rail 42. Using this mechanism effectively limits the movement of the derrick 1, ensuring stable operation and significantly extending its service life.
[0033] The guide support mechanism 4 is set according to the material conditions, and preferably there are two. The guide support mechanism 4 is set at both ends of the derrick 1.
[0034] Example 2 like Figure 5 As shown in Example 1, a turning device suitable for large-scale three-dimensional insect breeding facilities is provided. However, for some small-scale or experimental three-dimensional insect breeding facilities, the aforementioned turning device is complex and costly. This example provides a turning mechanism suitable for small-scale or experimental three-dimensional insect breeding facilities, with the following specific structure: A turning device for three-dimensional aquaculture includes four levers 1, a guide mechanism, a traction rope 3, and a power mechanism. The guide mechanism is located in the middle of the levers 1. This structure omits the guide support mechanism 4 and reduces the traction rope 3 to a single rope, making it simple and suitable for small-scale or experimental three-dimensional insect farming facilities.
[0035] Example 3 like Figure 6 As shown, this utility model also provides a three-dimensional breeding structure, including several feed-turning devices described in this utility model. The specific structure of the three-dimensional breeding structure can adopt applications with application numbers 2025109034158, 2025109034092, 2024107311838, and 2021113473925, etc. This embodiment uses application number 2025109034158, invention title: A partitioned continuous breeding structure and its breeding system, employing a partitioned continuous breeding structure with four partitions, each partition having ten layers. For specific structure details, please refer to the patent application document; further details are omitted here. In this embodiment, a guide mechanism is located on the outer wall of each breeding layer, and each partition is equipped with a feed-turning device. The turning mechanism on this three-dimensional aquaculture system uses a combination of traction rope 3 and forward and reverse power mechanism, which replaces the complex transmission system of traditional turners such as tracks and sprockets: only the forward and reverse power mechanism is needed to drive the traction rope 3 to be extended and retracted, without the need for large mechanical arms or track systems. A single power source can realize the reciprocating motion of the lever 1, simplifying the equipment structure.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
