DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic fish boxing apparatus in which squid and other fish are automatically accommodated in a fish box such as a styrofoam box or a frozen pan on a ship.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Fish caught on board a ship is not only fresh or stuffed in bulk, but also not only deteriorates freshness, but also the work of landing fish is troublesome. After sorting into a predetermined amount of Styrofoam box or frozen bread fish box, it is carried out to improve the commercial value by landing and maintaining the freshness, but said boxing work on board At present it depends on manual work.

[0003]

However, there is a serious problem that the box packing operation performed on the ship is extremely labor intensive and requires a long time. The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances,
An object of the present invention is to provide an automatic boxing device for squids and other fish (hereinafter, simply referred to as "fishes") which automates this boxing operation quickly and easily to save labor and further improve freshness. It is assumed that.

[0004]

For the present invention SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION To achieve the above object, the <br/> fish in which a fish blocking member openably at the tip in front of the flow delivery passage for feeding water of the porous The fish container is provided so as to be capable of supporting the storage container so as to be able to stand up , and a mounting portion of a fish storage box for storing fish in the storage container at the time of standing is provided at the front of the support portion.
The opening / closing operation of the blocking member is linked to the raising operation of the storage container , and the storage container is formed so as to be able to be raised by the power of a motor or the like or by manual operation, and the fish is provided at the tip of the flow path. The blocking member is provided so as to be openable and closable so that the opening / closing operation of the fish blocking member is linked with the raising operation of the storage container, and the fish blocking member is formed so as to block the fish in the flow path when the storage container is raised.

Further, a fish number measuring device is provided in the flow path, and a motor for operating the reservoir is controlled by a predetermined amount measured by the fish number measuring device, so that a predetermined amount of fish transferred through the flow path is controlled. It is preferable that the storage container be erected every time so that a predetermined number of fish can be automatically stored in the fish storage box.

[0006]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, in which squid or other fish selected to a predetermined size by a sorting device installed in a ship (not shown) is flown. The flow path 1 is formed of a gutter-like portion 1 'and a tubular portion 1 "provided at the front of the gutter-like portion 1', and the gutter-like portion 1 ' 2. For example, the fish counting device 2 using a touch sensor
At the rear end of the tubular portion 1 ", there is provided an openable / closable fish blocking member 3 for blocking fish to be fed, and further, a machine base 4 is provided in front of the opening of the tubular portion 1". .

At a substantially central portion of the machine base 4, a column 5
A support arm 6 ′ of a porous storage container 6 is supported on the column 5 via a rotation shaft 6 ″ so as to be able to stand up, and fishes from the flow path 1 are supported on the machine base 4. So that the mounting portion 8 of the fish storage box 7 such as a frozen pan or a styrofoam box can be easily carried out on the machine base 4 in front of the column 5. It is provided one step higher.

A motor 9 for turning the storage container 6 up and down by a crank mechanism is installed above the column 5, and the motor 9 is interlocked with the fish number measuring device 2 by a control mechanism 9 ′ to control the number of fish. When the measuring device 2 measures a predetermined number of fishes set in advance, the measuring device 2 is controlled so that it is driven to erect the storage container 6 and then returns and supports the same on the machine base 4 again.

A lever 10 is fixed to the support arm 6 ', and a towing line 11 such as tex which is locked to the lever 10 is connected to the fish blocking member 3 via a pulley 13 provided on a column 12.
Is connected to an operating rod 15 having a weight 14 at the tip provided at
When the storage container 6 rises, the towing line 11 is pulled to hold the fish blocking member 3 in a closed state via the operating rod 15. When the storage container 6 returns to the machine base 4, the towing line 11 is relaxed, and the weight 14 is reduced. Thereby, the fish blocking member 3 is formed so as to be kept open.

Since the embodiment of the present invention is constructed as described above, the fish transported by the water flow through the flow path 1 is counted by the fish counting device 2, and then the fish blocking member 3 is opened. And the seawater is transferred to a porous storage container 6 to drain the seawater, and the number of fish passing through the flow path 1 is counted by the fish number measuring device 2. The motor 9 is operated to raise the storage container 6 to guide and store the fish therein in the fish storage box 7, and at the same time, the towing line 11 pulls the fish blocking member 3 to close and prevent the fish to be transported. When the storage container 6 returns to the machine base 4, the fish blocking member 3 is reopened by the weight of the weight 14 together with the relaxation of the towing line 11, and the fish in the flow path 1 is again stored in the storage container 6.
It is housed inside.

Therefore, by installing a plurality of the apparatus of the present invention in accordance with the amount of catch or the selected size, etc., a predetermined amount of fish can be automatically stored in a frozen pan and frozen or refrigerated. Alternatively, it can be stored in a styrofoam box and immediately landed. Especially when applied to a squid fishing boat in which the degree of freshness is clearly determined by a change in color after catching, the commercial value can be significantly improved.

In the above-described embodiment, the reservoir 6 is driven up by a motor, but it can be raised by a manual operation by providing a manual handle 16 in this case. The notification is performed and a manual operation is performed. In addition, the opening / closing mechanism of the flow path, the fish number measuring device, and the fish blocking member of the present invention is not limited to those of the above-described embodiment.

[0013]

According to the present invention, fish caught in a ship are sequentially transported by a water flow through a flow path, temporarily stored in a porous storage container and drained, and then a fish storage box is formed by the standing action of the storage container. The fish caught in the fish storage box can be drained smoothly and securely and quickly and easily with little labor without damaging the fish while transporting it. Thereby, the fish freshness can be improved, and at the same time the labor on board can be saved.

When the standing operation of the storage container and the opening / closing operation of the fish blocking member are linked, the operation of packing the fish in the fish storage box can be performed more smoothly and reliably. When the motor of the storage container is controlled so as to be interlocked, a predetermined amount can be automatically packed in the fish storage box, so that the inboard work can be performed more quickly and easily, and labor can be saved.
