Description

AN FOOD SUPPLY SYSTEM FOR FISH-FARM

The present invention relates to a device for automatically feeding food in a plurality of spawning grounds, and more particularly, to a spawning food feeding device capable of automatically and uniformly supplying food even if the spawning ground is different in height.

Although domestic aquaculture has started to invest heavily in the sea aquaculture industry since the late 1960s, the development of advanced aquaculture equipment has not been developed due to the lack of awareness of automation, so that it can not escape the labor intensive form. Aquaculture faces a major crisis. Therefore, as a way to enhance the competitiveness of the aquaculture industry in order to revitalize the domestic aquaculture industry, development research is actively being carried out in the food supply device during the research on the development of the aquaculture automation system to reduce the expense of the form.

Currently, the automatic feeding apparatuses that are commercially available at home and abroad are manufactured in various forms. However, in the automatic feeding apparatus for aquaculture machine disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1104-81114, a motor capable of controlling the speed so as to have the same effect as man- We have developed a method of installing a disk-shaped rotary shaft on the shaft and installing several rotary blades for separating the rotary shaft to capture the dropped feed of the rotary blades. However, such a feeding device has a problem in that it must be installed independently for each water tank if it is manually done.

In addition, in order to automate the feed supply developed in connection with the automation system of the whole aquaculture industry, in the automatic feed system disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1106-89339, the movable feeder is moved along the rail installed on the water tank, , And a disk-shaped rotating plate is applied to the entire front of the water tank by feeding the feed in all directions 360 °.

However, such a system does not accurately disclose how to locate the mobile feedwater addition tank, and in order to control the amount of feed to be supplied to the water tank, a guide housing having a tubular structure for guiding the lower discharge port of the feed storage tank In the guide housing, adjustment pins in the form of a wheelbarrow are provided on the adjustment shaft rotated by the drive motor to adjust the number of the adjustment pins and the size of the pins, or to adjust the rotation speed of the drive motor There is a problem that the feed amount can not be precisely controlled since the main feed is discharged from the storage tank.

Also, in existing systems, there is a problem in that the feed is broken by feeding the feed between the guide housings during the rotation of the spindle-shaped control pins in the method of feeding the feed.
