Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an octopus shelter and a farm container therefor. More specifically, the present invention relates to a container for accommodating the caught octopuses one by one and a farming container for accommodating a plurality of shelters collectively.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Octopus are cave-headed animals, they have a bad relationship with each other, and if left alone, they will "quarrel" and damage each other. I put them one by one in the so-called "octopus pot" and moored them separately in the water.

[0003]

However, since the "octopus pot" is a unglazed container, it is easily damaged during handling, and there are many disadvantages in terms of weight and the like.

Further, it is extremely difficult to collectively cultivate the octopus put in these "octopus vases" in the sea.

[0005]

In view of the above problems, the present invention is suitable for accommodating octopuses one by one and suspending them in the sea. There is provided an octopus shelter which can be arranged in the vicinity of the.

Further, according to the present invention, there is provided a farming container for accommodating a large number of octopus shelters in a lump and for appropriately and selectively taking out the shelters.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An octopus shelter according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, an octopus shelter 10 for accommodating a single octopus has a hollow cylinder 12 whose both ends are open, and a disk as a lid which closes each of the open ends of the cylinder 12. It consists of 14 and 16.

The above-mentioned components are made of synthetic resin,
For example, it is made of vinyl chloride.

Each of the disks 14 and 16 is provided with a central opening 20 penetrating therethrough and a plurality of openings 22 surrounding the central opening 20. Also, both discs 14 and 16
In order to fix and to close both ends of the cylinder 12,
The synthetic resin pipe 2 is provided in the central opening 20 of the disks 14 and 16.
4, 26 are fixed. Pipes 24 and 26 are cylinders 1
They are connected to each other by screwing them at the central portion on the longitudinal center line of 2, and therefore, a coupling member 28 with a male screw and a coupling member 30 with a female screw are attached to their respective free ends.

A suspension fitting 32 is used to suspend the octopus shelter 10 in the sea. The hanging metal fitting 32 has a ring 34 for attaching a rope (not shown in the drawing) or the like in the central portion.
And a disk 14 having both ends fixed to both ends of the cylinder 12.
6 has a key portion 36 to be inserted into the central opening 20.

As the hanging metal fitting, as shown in FIG. 3, a bolt type hanging metal fitting 40 can be used. This hanging bracket 4
Reference numeral 0 designates a rod member 42 penetrating the pipes 24, 26 from the central opening 20 of the disc 14, a ring 34 for attaching a rope or the like is attached to one end portion thereof, and the nut 4 is attached to the other end portion.
It is fixed to the disc 16 at 4.

Referring to FIG. 4, a large number of shelters 10 each containing an octopus are collectively cultivated in the sea,
The farming container 50 that takes out the shelter 10 by approaching as needed will be described.

The farm container 50 is made of iron grid or wire mesh.
In containers <br/> unit configured polygonal or cylindrical flat at the side walls and peripheral wall, it is divided into a plurality of compartments 54 by a partition wall 52. This container 50 is provided with a compartment 54 in which the shelter 10 is placed below the sea surface, and the compartment 54 below the sea surface is rotated and taken out above the sea surface as needed.

To this end, a shaft 56 is provided at the center of the container 50.
Is attached, and the container 50 is centered around this shaft 56.
It is attached to the floating structure 58 on the surface of the sea by a suitable means known in the art so that it can be rotated. As the floating body structure 58, disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 1999992, "The outer cover is formed by forming a foam mixture such as a synthetic resin as a core material with a cement mixture, and the rigidity of the outer cover and the synthetic resin are provided. It is preferable to use a "floating body structure characterized by having a specific gravity of 1 or less with a core material made of foam". In addition, as shown in FIG.
Can be installed in parallel with.

The shelter 10 is placed in the compartment 54 of the container 50.
The peripheral wall 60 of each compartment 54 can be opened at one end by a suitable means such as a hinge (not shown) to the outer end of the partition wall 52 in order to insert or remove it. The other end of the peripheral wall 60 is also attached to the partition wall 52.
It is removably secured to the outer end of it by means of suitable fasteners (not shown) known per se.

[0017]

OPERATION AND EFFECT OF THE INVENTION Octopus shelter 10 of the present invention
As is obvious from the above, one octopus is put in each one, and the hangers 32 or 40 are used to
Suspend individually in the sea.

According to the present invention, since the shelter 10 is made of synthetic resin, it is much lighter than a conventional octopus pot, and even if it is thrown out, there is no risk of damage, and it is easy to handle and robust. is there.

Next, in the farming container 50, a large number of shelters 10 can be put in the compartments 54, and the portion accommodating the shelters 10 can be arranged in the sea. Since this container 50 is mounted so that it can rotate about a shaft 56, it approaches as needed to bring the compartment 54 containing the octopus shelter 10 of the container 50 above the sea surface. A desired octopus can be obtained by pivoting so as to expose it and by interrogating the peripheral wall 60 and taking out the shelter 10.

Therefore, it is extremely effective in collectively culturing octopus.
