WIRE BASKET [16 records]

Record 1 2022-05-31

Subject field(s)
  • Aquaculture
  • Seafood and Freshwater Food (Food Industries)
CONT

[The] basket was designed for use in an oyster farm. Unlike the mussel basket[, it] would be submerged in seawater for prolonged periods of time as a part of the oyster harvesting process. As such, it needed to be made of material that would be impervious to corrosion and pitting from constant exposure to chlorides.... Being a wire basket, water could drain from the basket with ease, allowing the client to dry off their oysters and prepare them for the next stage after pulling the basket from the water.

Subject field(s)
  • Aquaculture
CONT

Hatching troughs are usually made of sheets of aluminium or stainless steel; their dimensions vary, but they are segmented by partitions across the middle, each segment having a drain and an inlet pipe. The segments make it possible to separate eggs in different stages of development. The eggs are kept in 7. 5 cm deep baskets, made of 0. 6 cm meshed hardware cloth and suspended by wire from the side of the trough, so that the water line is below the top of the basket.... Six to ten days are required for catfish eggs to hatch...

Subject field(s)
  • Chains and Cables (Mechanical Components)
CONT

... attaching commercial sockets of forged steel to wire rope ends... The wire rope is seized at the end and another seizing is applied at a distance from the end equal to the length of the basket of the socket... For large ropes, the seizing should be several inches long. The end seizing is now removed and the strands are separated so that the fiber core can be cut back to the next siezing. The individual wires are then untwisted and "broomed out" and for the distance they are to be inserted in the socket are carefully cleaned with benzine, naphtha, or unleaded gasoline.

CONT

There are three types of zinced endings: A cone is formed from molten zinc poured into a mold in which a frayed rope end has been inserted; sometimes a ferrule is used as mold and stays on after pouring the zinc; or sockets are used instead of the ferrule. An open socket has ears to hold a pin and cotter. A closed socket has a loop or "bail." Both are heavy forgings and find widespread use. All three zinced on endings need a good deal of preparation. The rope’s end must be broomed out, cleaned with acid and straightened. Special endings: such as thimbles, clips, and clamps are quicker and easier to apply than a zinc socket, but efficiency is not as high as with other attachments.
