More Information
Summary:The present disclosure is directed to a dry feed mechanism employed in a shrimp feeder tank having an inclined endless conveyor in which a pair of rotary shafts having tines extending radially of and spaced along the shafts are mounted in a superstructure supported on the endless conveyor frame. One of the shafts is movable toward or away from the conveyor to regulate the rate of feed and to attain the desired distribution of shrimp over the upper run of the endless conveyor dependent upon shrimp size. The tines are curved and driven in a direction opposite to the travel of the conveyor to rake off shrimp at a predetermined level of conveyor feed.
