Feeding machine with barometric columns and lift-drop control mechanism

Abstract

The invention discloses a feeding machine with barometric columns and a lift-drop control mechanism. The feeding machine comprises a frame, a feed bin, feed hoppers, feed spraying pipes, a leaked feedreceiving device and the lift-drop control mechanism, wherein the frame comprises a plurality of the barometric columns; each barometric column comprises a piston rod; the feed bin is connected withand arranged on piston rods located on the frame and can be moved to lift and drop; the feed hoppers are connected with and arranged below the feed bin; each feed hopper is provided with a transparentwindow and a pull handle; a plurality of the feed spraying pipes are connected with and arranged on each feed hopper; the outlet direction of the plurality of the feed spraying pipes is horizontallyand slightly inclined downward; the leaked feed receiving device is arranged below the frame and can collect a feed scattered in the process of feeding; the bottom part of the frame is provided with moving wheels which are universal casters or track wheels with a rim; and the lift-drop control mechanism is arranged below the frame and can control the lift-drop movement of the piston rods.

Description

technical field [0001] The application belongs to the field of artificial aquaculture, and in particular relates to a feeder capable of quantitatively feeding feed into aquaculture equipment in a farm. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of living standards, a large amount of fish food that is needed on the human table, and fish products that grow naturally in rivers, lakes, and seas in nature can no longer meet human needs, and environmental pollution and overfishing behaviors have accelerated. The shortage of wild seafood and river fresh food is increasing day by day, and the continuous demand of human life, especially the demand for those precious fish food is constantly increasing. Thanks to the vigorous development of artificial aquaculture, especially in the coastal areas of our country, where the coastline is long, many fish villages have built aquaculture farms in the offshore, which has brought a lot of benefits to one side, and many farmers have made...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] The feed for abalones in the existing cultured abalone is algae, and now kelp is used. Cut the kelp into thin pieces or shreds, similar to the kelp knots sold in the farmers’ market. The kelp fragments need to be soaked to make them wet. Sticky and slippery; the existing quantitative feeding method is that workers first use a container to load feed from a workshop dedicated to storing feed, pull it to the edge of the breeding pond, then lift the breeding box group from the pond and place it on the edge of the pond, and open the windows and doors , Grab a handful of kelp fragments or kelp knots from the container and put them into the windows and doors, and then lock the windows and doors. The amount of feeding into each breeding box is about the same each time, and the amount of feeding each time is completely measured by the feel. Because the soaked kelp fragments are sticky and slippery, they are easy to slide, and the feed that is caught in the hand is easy to slip away, so it is inevitable that there will be errors in the measurement of the feel of the feed every time. If the feed is exhausted, the abalone can’t finish eating, and the rotten feed will affect the survival of the abalone. If the rotten material is found, it must be cleaned out of the box; put it in once a day or two, depending on the size and quantity of the abalone, and it will be repeated like this; due to large farms There are a large number of elongated large breeding ponds built inside, and there are hundreds or thousands of small breeding ponds. Therefore, the whole farm has thousands of breeding boxes or tens of thousands of bundles of breeding box groups. The breeding box group has to be lifted out of the breeding pond and placed on the side of the pond or on the partition wall of the pond. It is necessary to bend the body or squat to operate, open the window and door 9964, grab the material, feed the material, close the door, lock the door, and lower it. , if you find dead abalone or a lot of rotten feed in the box, take it out from this window. If you find a serious problem in the box, you must open the rope 9963 to clean the abalone in the box, then tie it up and lower it into the breeding pond , This kind of work is done every day, the workers work hard, the speed is slow and the efficiency is low; in addition, from the abalone seedlings to the mature abalones that can be marketed, there are several times of boxing work in the middle, for example, about 100 abalone fry per box at the beginning, After growing to a certain size, it needs to be divided into about 50 boxes per box, and after a little bigger, it needs to be divided into about 20-30 boxes per box. The ropes must be untied for this work, and the ropes come from the side of the breeding box. If the rope is passed through the hole, untie the rope and remove the breeding box, carefully separate the size of the abalones, divide the abalone into boxes, and then stack the breeding box to bind the rope. This work process is very time-consuming, slow and inefficient; Over the years, many farmers have visited large-scale farms in many coastal countries and regions at home and abroad, and have also consulted or hired engineers and experts, hoping to help them solve problems: how to easily extract the breeding box, how to quickly open and close windows, how to Fast and accurate measurement and fast delivery of feed, how to quickly divide boxes, these series of problems can be solved in coordination or some of them can improve the breeding efficiency to a certain extent, and it is better if the problems are solved, then automatic or semi-automatic farming production can be realized However, these problems have not been solved so far, and the breeding is still completely manual with a lot of labor; therefore, research and development on how to quickly quantitatively and directionally feed the cultured abalone boxes can reduce the labor intensity of the breeding workers, improve work efficiency, and reduce labor. Automate Or semi-automated breeding production is a subject with great market prospects
