Abstract

PURPOSE: To transport a crashed ice easily by providing an ice crashing room and a blower room in a movable casing, which is used when transporting the crashed ice from an ice room of a fisherboot, for making the inside pressure of the ice crashing room to be negative by means of the blower.

CONSTITUTION: When a blower 10 is operated, the air inside an ice crashing room 1A is evacuated from an air evacuation opening 11 to the outside. Therefor the air pressure inside the ice crashing room 1A becomes an negative pressure for a lid 6 to be pressed around the periphery of an exit 3 and also for the crashed ice inside an ice room 21 to be sucked into the ice crashing room 1A. When the amount of the ice reaches a certain prescribed quantity, the blower 10 is stopped. Owing to the stoppage of the blower 10, an outside air enters into the ice crashing room 1A to make the inside air pressure to return to the normal atmospheric pressure from the former negative pressure for the crashed ice to be evacuated through the exit 3 into a fish tank 22. Thus by opening/closing the lid 6 which covers the ice crashing room 1A from outside, the crashed ice can easily be fed to the fish tank 22 which needs the crashed ice.
