The arc-shaped buckle, equipped with a fixing buckle ring and cylindrical head arc-shaped claw, can be directly inserted into the buckle ring's recess. Because of the elastic support of multiple sets of cylindrical head arc-shaped claws, the arc-shaped buckle can be fixed and limited to a certain extent. This structure allows for easier disassembly and replacement when the fixing buckle ring and cylindrical head arc-shaped claw are damaged in the future.

[0015] In this invention, when counting, the perforated mesh plate can be inserted into the side insertion slot or pulled out by holding the horizontal bar of the barrier net. This allows for flexible selection of blocking crab seedlings or not blocking them, making it more convenient to use the device for different work needs. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the water pipe is secured in the arc-shaped buckle 3, and running water is connected so that the water flows down from the high point of the inclined bottom trough 40 inside the counting trough 4, flows out through the drop channel 41 to the lower inner guide channel 5, and finally flows out through the outer guide channel 6. At this time, crab seedlings are poured into the counting trough 4 and washed down by the water flow. When they pass through the visual counting camera 8, they are counted by taking pictures. The counted crab seedlings are discharged from the outer guide channel 6 with the water flow. During the counting process, by grasping the arc-shaped buckle 3 and rotating it along the arc of the cylindrical head arc-shaped claw 34, the cylindrical head arc-shaped claw 34 is positioned between the arc-shaped limiting groove 22 in the buckle hole 21, causing damped rotation. In the opposite direction, it is supported by the cylindrical head arc-shaped claw 34. The pipe is designed to prevent rotation, allowing for adjustment of water flow direction to suit different usage needs. The arc-shaped buckle 3, equipped with a fixing ring 33 and cylindrical arc-shaped claws 34, can be directly inserted into the ring's recess 21. Due to the elastic support of multiple sets of cylindrical arc-shaped claws 34, the arc-shaped buckle 3 is fixed and limited to a certain extent. This structure allows for easier disassembly and replacement when the fixing ring 33 and cylindrical arc-shaped claws 34 are damaged. Furthermore, during counting, the perforated mesh plate 71 can be inserted into or pulled out of the side insertion slot 62 by holding the barrier bar 70. This allows for flexible selection of whether to block crab seedlings or not, making the process more convenient for different work requirements.

[0039] 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.
