Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a continuous layered material distribution device for a three-dimensional multi-layered aquaculture equipment, belonging to the field of insect aquaculture equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Insects possess the ability to transform organic waste into their own growth material; for example, black soldier fly larvae can feed on poultry and livestock manure, household waste, etc. By constructing multi-layered breeding racks or utilizing vertical breeding cabinets, multiple layers can be arranged vertically, making full use of space and solving the problem of large land area requirements in traditional ground-based breeding. This can significantly improve the production capacity of insect breeding. In the vertical breeding model, it is convenient to collect and process these organic wastes as feed, achieving resource recycling, reducing feed costs, and also reducing the environmental pollution caused by organic waste. During insect breeding, a material-laying mechanism is needed to distribute the material layer by layer into the breeding layer. Application No. 2025213704552 discloses a layered synchronous feeding and insect-feeding device, including a lifting mechanism, a feeding mechanism, a larval collection mechanism, and an insect-feeding mechanism. The larval collection mechanism is used to collect larvae that have been raised for a certain period of time. The insect-feeding mechanism is used to simultaneously feed the larvae into the breeding equipment while feeding the material. The feeding mechanism is located on the lifting mechanism, and the insect-feeding mechanism is located at the discharge end of the feeding mechanism. The larval collection mechanism is connected to the insect-feeding mechanism or the feeding mechanism. This utility model integrates lifting, feeding, larval collection, and insect-feeding functions into one device, and the various mechanisms cooperate with each other. In three-dimensional insect breeding, this automated device can reduce manual operation, eliminating the need for manual leveling of materials and feeding of larvae, thus reducing labor costs and potential errors caused by manual operation. However, this device has the following problems: for large-scale feeding and insect-feeding operations, the feeding cart needs to move up and down frequently to replenish materials and insect eggs, which is time-consuming and results in low feeding and insect-feeding efficiency.

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 1As shown, a continuous layered feeding device for a three-dimensional multi-layer aquaculture equipment includes a feeding mechanism and a feeding mechanism. The discharge port of the feeding mechanism is connected to the inlet of the feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism has a material hopper 3 that is higher than the feeding cart. The feeding port of the feeding mechanism is provided with a telescopic feeding pipe 2. The outlet of the telescopic feeding pipe 2 is connected to the inlet of the feeding cart.

[0020] The telescopic feeding pipe 2 is a folded pipe or a nested telescopic pipe; in this embodiment, a folded pipe is used.

[0021] The function of the feeding mechanism is to transport the material in the silo to a higher position to provide raw materials for the feeding mechanism. It is generally a feeding screw conveyor 1, a feeding belt conveyor 7, or a feeding bucket elevator. In this embodiment, a feeding screw conveyor 1 is used.

[0022] The feeding mechanism is used to accurately feed materials into the material distribution vehicle. The specific structure can be customized according to actual conditions. In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism is an integral feeding screw conveyor 4, which has several feeding ports, each equipped with a telescopic feeding pipe 2. Each feeding port is equipped with a corresponding valve.

[0023] The feeding mechanism in this embodiment adopts a single-drive + multi-port + independent gate design, realizing simultaneous / sequential feeding at any point along the process, significantly shortening the material distribution cycle, reducing energy consumption, and without increasing the building height. The feeding mechanism and the material feeding mechanism in this embodiment are fixed by a mounting frame.

[0024] The operation process of this embodiment: The outlet end of the telescopic feeding pipe 2 is fixed to the hopper of the feeding trolley. The feeding trolley is moved to the breeding layer that needs feeding, and the feeding operation is started. Then, the feeding mechanism and the dispensing mechanism are activated to continuously feed the material. The valve at the dispensing end is opened to feed the material onto the feeding trolley. Feeding can be done in one go, with feeding and replenishment occurring simultaneously, or continuous feeding can be used. During the feeding process, the telescopic feeding pipe 2 extends and retracts as the feeding trolley moves up and down, allowing one dispensing port to feed different breeding layers. After feeding is completed for one breeding unit, the telescopic feeding pipe 2 is released, and the feeding trolley moves to the next breeding unit to continue the feeding operation.

[0025] Example 2 like Figure 2As shown, it is basically the same as in Embodiment 1, except that: the feeding mechanism consists of two sets of forward rotating screw conveyors 5 and several sets of forward and reverse rotating screw conveyors 6; the two sets of forward rotating screw conveyors 5 are arranged at both ends of the mechanism, and the several sets of forward and reverse rotating screw conveyors 6 are arranged in parallel in the middle section; each set of forward and reverse rotating screw conveyors 6 has a feeding port at the bottom of the front end along the conveying direction and a discharge port at the bottom of the rear end, and the feeding port is sealed to the telescopic feeding pipe 2; the discharge port of each forward and reverse rotating screw conveyor 6 corresponds one-to-one with the feeding port of the forward rotating screw conveyor 5 at the same end and is sealed and connected to form a closed loop conveying circuit.

[0026] The fabric operation is basically the same as in Example 1, except that: the forward rotation of the forward and reverse rotation screw conveyor 6 realizes the material transport between different screw conveyors, and the reverse rotation of the forward and reverse rotation screw conveyor 6 realizes the fabric operation at different fabric positions.

[0027] Screw conveyors can be installed horizontally or at an angle depending on the actual situation, in order to adapt to different space heights and lengths.

[0028] The solution in this embodiment achieves multiple advantages such as bidirectional and multi-point simultaneous material distribution, fault isolation, and self-cleaning anti-mixing through a combination design of two-end circulation and mid-section reversibility. Compared with the traditional single integral screw conveyor, it significantly improves the overall performance in the continuous material distribution scenario of three-dimensional multi-layer aquaculture.

[0029] Example 3 like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, it is basically the same as in Embodiment 1, except that: the feeding mechanism adopts a feeding belt conveyor 7, the feeding mechanism includes a transfer conveyor belt 8 and a discharge conveyor, the inlet end of the feeding conveyor is suspended on the transfer conveyor belt 8, the outlet of the feeding conveyor is provided with a telescopic feeding pipe 2, and the discharge conveyor is provided with a moving power mechanism.

[0030] The feeding conveyor is either a feeding belt conveyor or a feeding screw conveyor 10; in this embodiment, a feeding screw conveyor 10 is used. The function of the moving power mechanism is to drive the feeding mechanism to the feeding position; any mechanism with a moving function can be used, and in this embodiment, a slide rail 9 is used.

[0031] The operation process of this embodiment: First, the feeding screw conveyor 10 is transported to the material feeding position via the slide rail 9, and the telescopic feeding pipe 2 is fixed together with the material feeding hopper. At the same time, the feed inlet of the feeding screw conveyor 10 is brought into contact with the transfer conveyor belt 8. Then, the feeding belt conveyor 7 transports the material to the transfer conveyor belt 8, and the transfer conveyor belt 8 transports the material to the feeding screw conveyor. The feeding screw conveyor 10 feeds the material into the material hopper 3 through the telescopic feeding pipe 2.

[0032] This embodiment achieves multi-row operation with low energy consumption by combining a long belt, material transfer transition, and point-to-point feeding with a moving spiral. Its overall performance is significantly improved compared to traditional fixed spiral or integral long spiral solutions, and it is particularly suitable for three-dimensional insect breeding systems with compact space and frequent batch changes.

[0033] Example 4 like Figure 5 and 6 As shown, it is basically the same as in Embodiment 1, except that: the continuous layered fabric device further includes a continuous layered insect feeding mechanism 15, the continuous layered insect feeding mechanism 15 includes a larva lifting mechanism 11, the larva lifting mechanism 11 is provided with an insect feeding telescopic tube at the insect outlet, and the insect feeding telescopic tube is fixedly connected to the insect feeding mechanism 15 on the fabric cart.

[0034] In this embodiment, the larva lifting mechanism 11 is a larva bucket elevator.

[0035] The insect-exiting telescopic tube is a folded tube or a nested telescopic tube. In this implementation, a straight-tube nested telescopic tube 12 is used.

[0036] This embodiment adopts a combination design of fixed lifting + flexible telescopic tube + vehicle-mounted insect delivery, which completely solves the problems of low efficiency, large damage and poor adaptability of traditional insect delivery systems. It realizes efficient, low-damage, continuous and clean insect delivery operations in three-dimensional multi-layer insect farming, and has significant practical and promotional value.

[0037] The larvae ejection telescopic tube can also be configured as a conical stacked telescopic tube as needed. The large end of the conical stacked telescopic tube is connected to the insect feeding mechanism 15. With the above structure, the larvae ejection blockage can be effectively prevented.

[0038] Alternatively, a conical diversion column 13 can be installed at the top of the insect-eating telescopic tube, allowing the larvae to flow into the insect-feeding mechanism 15 along the insect-eating telescopic tube, effectively reducing the damage to the larvae due to the large falling distance; in order to further improve the anti-blocking effect, a vibration mechanism 14 can also be installed on the insect-eating telescopic tube, which can effectively reduce the insect-eating blockage problem through vibration.

[0039] 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.
