Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a seafood culturing device that easily holds the seeds of, for example, kelp and oysters when artificially cultivating them.

Conventionally, for example, oyster farming has been carried out by suspending hanging ropes for oysters from artificial floating shelves above the sea surface, and sandwiching oyster shells for seeds between the suspended ropes. Floating shelves generally consist of a thick rope set above the sea surface, a floating barrel anchored by a thin rope, etc., and anchors that moor both ends of the rope. They are tied together with hanging ropes, thin ropes, etc. However, according to this structure, the connection between the thick rope and the hanging rope or the connection between the thick rope and the floating barrel requires a lot of man-hours for the connection work, and the degree of connection is weak, so that the connection between the thick rope and the hanging rope is difficult. Over the course of 18 to 20 months, many accidents occurred where floating barrels were washed away or damaged due to collisions between barrels, or hanging ropes were washed away and it became impossible to harvest the scraping tools attached to the ropes.
Equipment damage and yield loss are extremely large. In order to eliminate such accidents, connecting devices made of metal materials have been considered, but the lifespan of inexpensive ferrous metals is extremely short due to salt damage, and the above-mentioned accidents cannot be prevented. The above-mentioned drawbacks can be pointed out not only for oyster shell cultivation but also for cultivation of kelp and other marine products. By the way, in a structure in which a large number of thin ropes are additionally connected to the thick rope described above, when large waves occur, the hanging ropes may become entangled with the thick passing rope or a kink may occur in the thick rope. . The reason for this is that because the connecting point of the hanging rope is fixed to the thick rope, the rotation of the hanging rope due to the waves is directly transmitted to the thick rope, and as a result, unnecessary twisting is added to the thick rope. There is an extremely high risk that a kink will occur in the thick rope and, in the worst case, that the thick rope will be cut.

In view of these points, the present invention can speed up the connection work between this kind of aquaculture equipment and the above-mentioned rope, and prevents loosening or displacement of the connecting parts of both, and also prevents the aquaculture part from hanging down. The main object of the present invention is to propose this type of aquaculture equipment that prevents the above-mentioned rope from kinking due to rotation by waves.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of the device of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 indicates a rope sandwiching body, which is composed of left and right first and second sandwiching bodies 11 and 12 sandwiching a thick rope 2. The first and second sandwiched bodies 11 and 12 have a semicircular ring shape, and are formed in a semicircular concave shape having an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the thick rope 2. As shown in FIG. 2, the first and second sandwiched bodies 11 and 12 are connected at a bent portion 13 at one end and are integrally formed of synthetic resin or the like. Therefore, each sandwiched body 11,
12 is rotatably fitted to the rope.

A synthetic fiber cloth 5 for securing a large number of culture ropes 4 is held on the opposite end side of the bent portion 13 of each sandwiching body 11, 12, and the first and second sandwiching bodies 11, 1
A connected male body 6 that locks 2 itself and this connected male body 6
A female hole 7 that fits into the hole 7 is bored. combined male body 6
As shown in FIG. 2, these have a pair of claw-like tips with slightly outward openings, and the claw-like tips are configured to engage with the edge of the female hole 7. Therefore, by inserting the coupling male body 6 into the female hole 7, the first and second sandwich bodies 11 and 12 are integrated. and,
As shown in FIG. 3, the synthetic fiber cloth 5 is provided with a rectangular hole 5a having the same size as the female hole 7.
By inserting the connecting male body 6 into the rectangular hole 5a of the synthetic fiber cloth 5 when fitting the sandwiched bodies 11 and 12, the synthetic fiber cloth 5 and the sandwiched body 1 can be integrated as shown in FIG. It is possible to aim for Note that a natural cloth can be used instead of the synthetic fiber cloth. In Figure 1, 8
4 shows a stopper that prevents the clamping body 1 from moving in the extending direction of the rope, and this stopper is made by sliding a part of the cylindrical body 9, which has an inner diameter that almost matches the outer diameter of the thick rope 2, as shown in FIG. Alternatively, the rope is split in the usual way, and the protrusion 10 that protrudes left and right in the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the rope 2 and the locking cone 15 that sinks into the strand of the rope 2 are integrally molded from synthetic resin. To fit the stopper 8 to the rope 2, hold the protrusion 10 and insert the cylindrical body 9.
The cone 15 is fitted between each strand of the rope 2 so as to be inserted between the strands of the rope 2, thereby locking the rope. The stoppers 8 are attached to the left and right sides of the sandwich body 1 (see FIG. 1).

Therefore, when the rope 2 is stretched on an aquaculture raft or the like, and an aquaculture device is provided in which a large number of sandwiched bodies 1 are rotatably fitted to the rope 2 at regular intervals,
Culture rope 4 hanging down to the sandwiching body 1 due to waves etc.
A strong stress is applied to the synthetic fiber cloth 5 to which the rope 2 is attached, and as a result, it rotates together with the sandwiching body 1 around the rope 2, but since the stress is not transmitted to the rope 2, a kink occurs without twisting the rope 2. There's nothing to do. Further, due to the action of the stoppers 8, the sandwiched bodies are not displaced in only one direction due to wave force in the extending direction of the ropes 2, and the culture ropes 4 can always be installed at constant intervals. Therefore, damage caused by collisions between marine products grown from the culture rope 4 can be prevented.

As described above, according to the present invention, the rope sandwiching body has a rope fitting recess formed by bending the left and right sandwiching bodies that sandwich the rope, the stopper that prevents the rope sandwiching body from moving in the rope extension direction, and the left and right The rope fitting recess of the rope clamping body is set to have an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the rope, and the stopper is a cone and a rope clamping body that bites between each strand of the rope. A protruding body is provided to catch the coalescence, and a large number of culture ropes are attached to the cloth body, so that when cultivating artificial marine products such as aquaculture shellfish, oysters, kelp, and seaweed, waves and transverse waves can damage the above-mentioned sandwich body, culture ropes, and cloth. When acting on the body part, the rope is not directly subjected to wave force, so the tension of the rope is kept constant, and kinks do not occur due to rotation of the sandwiched body due to wave force. Therefore, the lifespan of this type of aquaculture equipment can be significantly extended. Therefore, it is possible to install safe aquaculture equipment for a long period of time, and it is possible to prevent damages caused by anchors being washed away by waves or artificial marine products being washed away due to ropes being cut, etc., as in the past.
