Integrated manufacturing of REciclable multi-material COmposites for the TRANSport sector

The invention is circumscribed to the area of aquaculture zootecnia in fish, amphibians, canopy and other aquatic organisms; it is a semi-automatic feeder of programmable mechanical type in schedules through a conventional timer, is small and ideal for intensive production runs of organisms such as Rana Toro and fish, is constructed of a metallic material such as fully washable stainless steel of easy cleaning and disinfection, to cover sanitary needs of aquaculture farms. The inner part has a spiral-shaped impeller, which transports the food in a slow but constant manner along the body of the feeder and up to the outlet thereof, wherein thanks to the release of the energy accumulated by the tension of the worm when carrying out a complete rotation, a firing of the shotgun-like food is produced and a sound is emitted by said firing ; the design accepts containers of different capacity such as one, two, five and ten kilograms of food, food containers are made of transparent plastic such as PET or with a funnel system for constant filling, also made of plastic for easy cleaning and disinfection. The design facilitates dispersion of the food in the area where organisms are located by a front outlet, the programming allows feeding in a simple manner in different periods of the day, according to the nutritional needs, population density and expected biomass. The present invention improves the state of the art by overcoming the challenges faced by the producers of aquaculture farms by providing a solution to the problem of feeding semi-automatically to these animals at different times and proportions, with the aim of optimizing the feed work and reducing the waste of the food.
