ICE DISTRIBUTER FOR FISH HOLD IN RAW FISH CARRIER SHIP

摘要

PURPOSE:To make it possible to uniformly distribute ice into a fish hold, by removably arranging an ice distributing device which may scatter ice, below the output port of a conveying cylinder laid in the bottom section of an ice storing hopper and disposed therein with a screw conveyor. CONSTITUTION:A conveying cylinder 3 which houses therein a screw conveyor driven by a hydraulic motor 7 is attached to the bottom section of an ice storing hopper 2 having an opening at its top so that an ice storing part 4 is formed. An ice distributing part 8 composed of an ice receiving hopper 10 having an opening 9 at its top and an ice distributing cylinder 12 connected with the lower section of the cylinder 12, is connected to the outlet port 5 side of the conveying cylinder 3 by means of an attaching bed 11. The distributing cylinder 12 is disposed therein with a scattering rotor 16 provided with a stirring rod 15 to which a plurality of scattering blades and branched projections are provided, the rotor 16 being rotated by a hydraulic motor 17. Further, a turning cylinder having an ice distributing opening 18 is rotatably arranged around the outer periphery of the ice distributing cylinder 12, and is rotated by a drive gear meshed with a gear 20.
