Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for attaching cultured shellfish to a rope, such as scallops, for hanging cultured shellfish in the sea by attaching the cultured shellfish to the rope.

U.S. Technology Figure 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating a typical prior art aquaculture facility setup. The aquaculture facility for cultivating shellfish hanging in the sea is called a longline type, and there are anchors 2a at both ends.
21+ is moored to a horizontal rope 4 to which a plurality of floating balls 3 are attached, and a vertical rope 1 to which, for example, a scallop S is attached.
5 is suspended.

Scallops S that are suspended and cultured using this kind of aquaculture facility
are manually attached to the vertical rope 5 at regular intervals along its longitudinal direction.

For such simple installation, threads such as threads are passed through the vertical rollers at regular intervals, and the threads are inserted into mounting holes pre-formed by a drill or the like in the hinge part of the scallop S. A scallop S is tied to the rope 5. The vertical rope 5 to which the scallop S is attached in this manner is attached to the horizontal rope 4 and suspended in the sea. Moreover, the work of attaching eel shells is all done by hand, and the work period is concentrated and limited to the period from December to March of the following year, so it requires a lot of manpower and the work efficiency is reduced. The problem was that it was bad.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, a needle 6 has been conventionally used for the installation shown in FIG. 6 in some cases.

The shell attachment needle 6 is made of synthetic resin or the like, has tapered ends, and has a plurality of bases 97 symmetrically formed. During the shellfish attaching operation, the shellfish attaching needle 6 is inserted into the vertical rope 5 up to the vicinity of its center. In this way, the attachment hole previously formed in the hinge portion of the scallop S is inserted into the attachment needle 6, which is inserted through the vertical rope 5, beyond the bases 7a on both end sides, and the scallop S is attached. In this way, when the shellfish attaching needle 6 is used, the weight of the shellfish increases as the scallop S grows, and this dead weight causes the scallop S to fall off the shellfish attaching needle 6. Further, the base 97 of the shellfish attaching needle 6 may become damaged due to long-term use, and this also causes the scallop S to fall out of the shellfish attaching needle 6.

Therefore, even when using the needle 6, it is not possible to securely attach the scallop S to the vertical rope 5, and it is not only possible to attach the shellfish by hand. Therefore, there is a need for an attachment method and device that automatically and reliably attaches and detaches cultured shellfish from ropes.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a method and device for attaching cultured shellfish to a rope, which can automatically and reliably attach cultured shellfish to a rope. That's true.

Means for Solving the Problem 3 - The present invention forms an attachment hole in the hinge part of the cultured shellfish by a perforation means, and for attachment, a thread is inserted into the attachment hole by a means, and the thread is attached to a rope. This is a method for attaching cultured shellfish to a rope, which is characterized by automatically attaching them at intervals in the longitudinal direction.

The present invention also provides an index table which is rotatably driven with cultured shellfish mounted thereon, and which can be stopped at a position where the allocation is divided into at least three equal parts in the circumferential direction; and a fixing means for fixing a cultured shellfish on an index table; said layout is a hinge portion of said cultured shellfish at a second position downstream in the rotational direction of said index table from said first position among the positions; perforation means for forming a mounting hole in the hole, and the said layout is at a third position on the downstream side in the rotational direction of the index table from the second position of the positions, for binding the cultured shellfish and the rope. A device for attaching farmed shellfish to a rope, characterized in that it has means-4=.

According to the present invention, the drilling work of forming an attachment hole in the hinge part of the cultured shellfish, the work of inserting a thread such as a rope into the rope, and the work of inserting the thread into the attachment hole of the cultured shellfish and attaching it to the rope. Since the work of attaching cultured shellfish is automatically carried out by a machine, the working time is reduced compared to the conventional manual work of attaching shellfish, and therefore work efficiency is improved. Furthermore, the manpower required for shell mounting is reduced and economical efficiency is improved.
