Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to an improvement in a suction type seaweed collector.

The seaweed leaf pieces attached to the seaweed net are collected depending on the time of collection,
Depending on the conditions of the fishing grounds, growth conditions, presence or absence of disease, etc., the harvest may be cut short or left uncut for a long time, but with conventional suction-type harvesters of this type, adjustment tools are attached and removed from the harvesting machine each time. This is done by installing an adjustable ring that can be moved up and down, or by adjusting the position of the fixed blade, but these methods are complicated to construct and operate, have poor collection efficiency, and are difficult to cut short. In some cases, there are defects such as the ease of cutting the seaweed net.

In view of these current circumstances, the present invention has an extremely simple configuration that allows the uncut length to be freely adjusted and also reliably prevents the seaweed net from being cut. A pair of sampling cylinders having a sampling hole inside and at the bottom are arranged in parallel, and the opposing inner parts of the pair of sampling cylinders are connected so as to be bendable about the axial direction of the sampling cylinders, and each The main feature is that a suction and flow pipe is connected to the collection cylinder.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. A pair of sampling cylinders 2, 2 each having sampling holes 1, 1 in their lower portions have branch pipes 3', 3'', respectively, of a flexible suction and flow pipe 3 in their upper parts. Cutting devices 6, 6 each consisting of a rotating cylindrical blade 4 and a fixed blade 5 are provided inside the cutting device 6, and the cutting device 6 cuts and collects the seaweed leaf pieces sucked from the collection hole 1 into the suction/distribution pipe. It is designed so that it can be collected on a ship via 3.

Further, the sampling cylinders 2, 2 are connected to each other by a hinge 7 on the opposing inner sides so as to be able to change the sampling angle of the sampling holes 1, 1, and the suction and flow pipe 3 is connected to the suction pipe 3 on the ship. connected to the pump. In the figure, 8 is a fixed shaft of a fixed blade, and 9 is a seaweed net.

Since the embodiment of the present invention is constructed as described above, in normal cases, the collection holes 1 and 1 are placed on the same side as shown in FIG. As shown in Fig. 2, the collecting cylinders 2, 2 are bent upward to bring the collecting holes 1, 1 into close contact with the seaweed net 9 to perform the collecting action. The collecting action is performed by bending the collecting cylinders 2, 2 downward to create a gap between the seaweed nets 9.

Although the cross-sectional shape of the collection cylinder is rectangular in the above embodiment, it may be circular, and other bending means may be used instead of a hinge.

In this type of suction-type seaweed collecting machine, the present invention bendably connects a pair of collecting cylinders, changes the collecting angle of the collecting hole, and adjusts the interval to the seaweed net to lengthen or shorten the length of the remaining seaweed leaves. Since it can be adjusted arbitrarily, it does not require complicated equipment or operations as in the past, and can be smoothly and easily cut into long or short lengths depending on the growth status of the seaweed leaves, harvesting time, fishing ground conditions, etc. It has excellent features such as collecting the seaweed net while pulling it through a pair of collection holes, so that the slack seaweed net will not be suctioned and cut, and the collection efficiency can be doubled.
