1 TARIFF DEAD FISH COLLECTION SYSTEM FOR FISH FARMS Technical Area The invention has implications for the field of human needs technology, and more specifically for the field of fisheries, and even more specifically for other areas. 5. It relates to a system aimed at... State of the Art Fish farming is a branch of agriculture that has been known for thousands of years. There is a global demand for fish protein. The increase in demand has led to widespread overfishing in wild fisheries, resulting in depletion of fish stocks. This is causing a significant decrease and even complete depletion in some areas. Fish 10 fish farming, mostly in artificial tanks or ponds for food. It involves the commercial breeding of fish in containers. Fish farming requires adequate nutrition, protection from natural predators and competitive threats, access to veterinary services, and enabling the establishment of artificial fish colonies, which facilitates easier harvesting when needed. When identified, it is separate from wild fish populations and is therefore generally sustainable. 15 It does not affect their yields. To prevent fish deaths in cages from harming live fish, the dead fish are removed quickly. They should be removed from the cage. This helps maintain a healthy life inside the cage. And it enables fast and high-quality waste recycling of dead fish. In the known state of the technology, the problem of collecting dead fish from fish cages was solved in 20 years. Alternative solutions are being encountered. For example, in its most basic form, divers every day... In this way, dead fish are collected and sold by hand. In this practice, dead fish are collected daily. If not collected, the fish become unsaleable and damages the live fish. It is starting to give. Furthermore, this method is particularly tedious for divers because underwater... It requires a long stay and significantly puts a strain on the diver's health and a number of dangers. 25 This results in exposure. For example, in a fish farm with an average of 16 cages, a diver's exposure... To perform their duties, they need to stay in the water for one to four hours a day and cover distances of 1,000 to 4,000 meters. They may need to travel. This puts a strain on the diver's health and also... Over time, this increases the cost of the fish farm. Furthermore, the success of the harvest requires meditation practice. Without an automated and reliable way to successfully perform this, only the diver's 30 It depends on their skills and temperament. Another alternative route is described in the Greek patent document numbered GR 20200100564 A. This The purpose of the document is to remove dead fish from the seabed without disturbing the fish inside the fish cage. 2 A vacuum fish catcher / collector that uses a vacuum to allow for easy removal of fish. The device is presented. The arrangement in question involves an initial metal pipe and a second plastic pipe. It consists of a funnel connected at an angle. In the first tube, air is drawn through a hose. It has a non-return air supply valve connected to its compressor. The air compressor, It supplies air to the circuit and 5 from the first and second pipes to the surface for collecting dead fish. It creates a vacuum to facilitate its removal. The patent with application number CN 214508888 U concerns aquaculture products that include a support plate. It describes a dead fish collection device for fish farming. The recovery rod, support plate, and multiple cylinders, rotating shafts, movable grooves, rotating rods and compression plates It can be flexibly adjusted through collaboration, so that people collect dead fish every 10 days. This eliminates the need for a scoop net, which reduces the workload for personnel. Wire mesh The dead fish collected are directly fed into the handle by pressing down on the handle via the holding seat and slide. They can be transported onto the ship, so the dead fish can be collected by rubbing the collecting rod hard each time. It can be poured onto the ship through the filter mesh without having to operate it. Another patent document, WO2018169412A1, describes separating live fish from dead fish. 15 It relates to the method and collection of dead fish. In this method, an electric current is applied to the water. The procedure is being applied, and it has been observed that fish that do not respond to the electric current are dead. Afterwards, these dead fish are collected using a vacuum system. However, this is done using an electric current. There is also a risk that live fish may be harmed. In the known state of the art, these systems, as described, offer advantages in terms of cost, performance, and... (The sentence is incomplete and unclear in the original Turkish). It needs to be improved in terms of efficiency. Purpose of the Invention Using numerous divers at farms, dead animals worth approximately several million Turkish Lira are recovered monthly. The fish need to be evaluated, and the diving costs in the farms that have joined our system... Besides the reduction, collecting dead fish twice a day instead of once and selling the fish while they are still fresh is 25 The chances of avoiding evaluation and diver costs increase. One aim of the present invention is to propose a system for collecting dead fish from fish cages, The goal is to eliminate the aforementioned disadvantages and shortcomings of the previous technique. Another aim of the current invention is to remove fish from cages without the need for assistance from divers. The goal is to provide a system for collecting dead fish. 30 Another aim of the current invention is to enable automatic diving without the need for divers to remain underwater. The goal is to provide a system for collecting dead fish from fish cages that can function as such. 3 Another aim of the invention is to provide immediate and readily available information when needed, without time constraints. a way to collect dead fish from fish cages that can operate without posing a danger to operators It is the presentation of the system. Another purpose of the invention is to remove dead fish from the bottom of the fish cage without disturbing the fish inside. It is about providing a system that allows the fish to be easily removed. 5 Figures that will help understand the invention. Figure 1 - Representative view of the system in question.
