The present invention relates to a fish farm cleaning device, and more particularly to a fish farm cleaning device that can remove the sludge and shellfish attached to the bottom and wall of the fish farm.

The fish farm is built on land and pumps seawater to create live conditions such as the sea.

Feed and fish droppings are deposited within the fish farms, as well as other sludges attached to the bottom and walls of the fish farms. In addition, the bottom and the wall of the fish farm is inhabited by crustaceans such as barnacles generated from sea water. Feeding, fish dung, and other sludges and crustaceans deposited or attached to the bottom and walls of fish farms are a cause of fish diseases and wounds, so cleaning is essential in fish farms.

However, in the past, the fish in the fish farm were moved to another place, the water of the fish farm was drained, and then the floor and the wall of the fish farm were cleaned manually. As a result, the cleaning of fish farms took a lot of time, and sludge and crustaceans were not completely removed. In addition, by moving the fish elsewhere, the fish is stressed, the growth has a disadvantage.

The present invention is to solve the above problems, the object of the present invention is to remove the sludge or crustacean attached to the bottom and wall of the fish farm reliably, as well as a fish farm cleaning device that can clean the fish farm in a short time To provide.

At the same time, an object of the present invention is to provide a fish farm cleaning apparatus that can easily clean the bottom or wall of the fish farm without moving the fish to another place without draining the water.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to install the drainage pump for discharging water to the outside for the cleaning of the fish farm made of a material with a high corrosion resistance and at the same time removable detachable wedge at the discharge water divergence point that wear well in the drainage pump It is thereby to provide a fish farm cleaning device that can easily replace the worn branch wedge.

In order to achieve the above object, the fish farm cleaning apparatus according to the present invention includes a housing having a base plate, a moving wheel installed at the bottom of the housing so as to support the housing so that the bottom surface of the base plate is separated from the bottom of the fish farm; A bottom brush rotating shaft exposed at a lower end under the base plate and rotatably supported by the housing and vertically installed at the housing, and a bottom brush rotating shaft exposed at the bottom of the base plate such that the brush hair contacts the bottom of the fish farm. A bottom brush coupled to the bottom brush, a bottom brush rotary drive means for rotating the bottom brush rotary shaft, a wall brush rotary shaft protruding outwardly of the housing to be rotatably supported by the housing, and vertically installed on the housing, and a brush; On the outer circumference of the cylinder And a wall brush rotating drive means for rotating the wall brush rotary shaft, a suction port positioned below the base plate, and an outlet port extended to the outside of the fish farm. And a drain pump installed in the housing and a drain pump driving means for driving the drain pump.

While the bottom brush and the wall brush wipe off the foreign substances attached to the bottom and the wall of the fish farm, the drainage pump may facilitate the cleaning of the fish farm by pumping the mixed water out of the fish farm.

In addition, the fish farm cleaning apparatus according to the present invention, the bottom brush rotating shaft, the upper shaft connected to the bottom brush rotary driving means, and the bottom brush is connected to the upper shaft to the bottom brush is connected to the upper shaft to the bottom It characterized in that it comprises a minor axis, and a spring interposed between the lower axis and the upper axis to apply the elastic force to the lower axis downward.

Since the lower shaft is pressed downward by the spring, the brush bristles of the bottom brush are pressed by a force of a predetermined size or more to the bottom of the fish farm.

In addition, the fish farm cleaning apparatus according to the present invention, the drainage pump is a reinforced plastic material having a corrosion resistance, the wedge fixing portion at the discharge water branch point where the discharge water is branched to the outer casing from the inner casing rotatably installed inside the impeller It is formed integrally with the casing, characterized in that the branch wedge is detachably installed in the wedge fixing portion.

The ejection water branch point where the ejection water branches from the inner casing to the outer casing is relatively worn out. The present invention is characterized in that it is possible to replace only the portion made by wearing a branch wedge detachably at the discharge water branch.

In addition, the fish farm cleaning apparatus according to the present invention, the wedge fixing portion is formed with a projection receiving groove, the branch wedge is characterized in that the insertion projection is inserted into the projection receiving groove.

By inserting the insertion protrusion into the projection receiving groove, the branch wedge is simply and detachably inserted into the wedge fixing portion.

Hereinafter, with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawings will be described in more detail fish farm cleaning apparatus according to the present invention.

1 is a perspective view showing a fish farm cleaning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a side view showing a fish farm cleaning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to the drawings, the fish farm cleaning apparatus 1 according to the present invention includes a housing 10, a bottom brush rotary shaft 20, a bottom brush 25, a bottom brush rotary drive means 30, a wall brush rotary shaft 40, and a wall surface. Brush 45, wall brush rotational drive means 50, drain pump 60, drain pump driving means 70 is configured to include.

The housing 10 is for enclosing to protect another configuration. Since the present invention is used in a water-filled fish farm, the bottom brush 25, the wall brush 45 and the suction port 66 of the drain pump 60 are exposed to water, but the bottom brush 25, the wall brush 45 and The configuration for driving the drain pump 60 and other components is preferably installed inside the housing 10 so as not to come in contact with water. To this end, the base plate 11 for preventing water from entering the interior of the housing 10 is provided to be separated from the bottom surface of the fish farm at predetermined intervals, and the suction port of the bottom brush 25 and the drain pump 60 ( 66 is installed in the housing 10 to be exposed to the bottom of the base plate (11). In addition, the housing 11 has a top plate 12 on which other brush driving means and the like are installed.

In the lower part of the housing 10 as described above, moving wheels 15a and 15b are installed to support the housing 10 so that the bottom of the base plate 11 is separated from the bottom of the fish farm.

The lower end of the upper shaft 22 is provided with a sliding cylinder 24 which is a tube for supporting the lower shaft 21 to be reciprocated vertically. The lower shaft 1 having the bottom brush 25 connected to the lower end is inserted into a hole of the sliding cylinder 24 to reciprocate up and down and is connected to the upper shaft 22 so as to reciprocate up and down. . At this time, the lower shaft 21 should be connected so as not to rotate relative to the upper shaft (22). This can be solved by constructing a spline inside the sliding tube 24 and the outer surface of the lower shaft 21. In the drawing, the slot 24a is formed long in the sliding tube 24 up and down, and the slot protrusion 21a is formed in the lower shaft 21 so that the rotation of the upper shaft 22 moves to the lower shaft 21. An embodiment is shown which is intended to be delivered. On the other hand, a spring 23 for pressurizing the lower shaft 21 with a constant force downward is inserted into the sliding cylinder 24 and is interposed between the lower shaft 21 and the upper shaft 22 to be installed. do. The spring 23 applies an elastic force downward to the lower shaft (21). The bottom brush 25 coupled to the lower end of the lower shaft 21 is installed at the lower shaft 21 by the spring 23 to be supported by the spring 23 so as to reciprocate upward and downward. Pressurized by a constant force on the surface.
