[0052] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a Daphnia hydroponics propagation system of the present invention includes a pretreatment unit 1, a Daphnia hydroponics propagation tank 2, a photoculture unit 3, and an in-situ propagation unit 4.

[0053] The pretreatment unit 1 is used to refine and break down the algae to meet the particle size requirements. The pretreatment unit 1 includes a water storage tank 11, an overflow box 12, a pulverizer 13, a particle size sensor 14, and a circulating pump 15. The water storage tank 11 has an inlet 101 and an outlet 102. The overflow box 12 is fixedly installed inside the water storage tank 11, located below the inlet 101 and above the outlet 102. The top of the overflow box 12 has an opening 103, such as... Figure 2As shown, the overflow box 12 is located directly below the water inlet 101, when the water algae and water daphnia culture water enters the water storage bin 11 through the water inlet 101, it is first stored in the overflow box 12, when the water daphnia culture water in the overflow box 12 is over the opening 103, it flows into the water storage bin 11, and then is added to the subsequent process through the water outlet 102; the pulverizer 13 is fixedly arranged in the overflow box 12, which is used for breaking and refining the water algae; the particle size sensor 14 is fixedly arranged below the water storage bin 11, which is used for detecting the particle size of the broken water algae; the circulating pump 15 is fixedly arranged in the water storage bin 11, the output end of which is connected with the bottom of the water storage bin 11, and the input end of which is connected with the inside of the overflow box 12, when the particle size sensor 14 monitors that the particle size of the water algae is too large, the circulating pump 15 is used to suck the water algae back to the overflow box 12, and the pulverizer 13 is used to break and refine the water algae again.

[0054] The water daphnia propagation tank 2 is used for breeding water daphnia, and the water daphnia propagation tank 2 is connected with the water outlet 102, the water daphnia culture water and the water algae first enter the water storage bin 11 through the water inlet 101, are broken by the pulverizer 13, and then enter the water daphnia propagation tank 2 through the water outlet 102 for the water daphnia to eat, the water algae with the required particle size has a high purchase cost, through the breaking and refining and adding of the water algae by the pretreatment unit 1, not only the input cost of the water algae can be reduced, but also the automatic adding of the water algae can be realized, and the efficiency of the water algae expansion is improved; at the same time, through the arrangement of the particle size sensor 14 and the circulating pump 15, the particle size of the water algae added to the water daphnia propagation tank 2 can be monitored in real time, when the particle size of the water algae is too large, the circulating pump 15 is used to suck the water algae back to the pulverizer 13 for secondary breaking, so that the particle size requirement of the water algae is ensured.

[0055] As shown in the figure, Figure 5 The water daphnia propagation tank 2 includes a tank body 21, a stirrer 22 and an oxygenator 23, wherein the tank body 21 is connected with the phototrophic pipe 31 and / or the water outlet 102; the stirrer 22 and the oxygenator 23 are fixedly arranged in the tank body 21, and are respectively used for stirring the water in the tank body 21 and providing oxygen for the water in the tank body 21, so that the water daphnia and the water algae in the water daphnia propagation tank 2 are uniformly distributed and grow rapidly.

[0056] In order to ensure the safety of the water daphnia culture water, the pretreatment unit 1 further includes a filter 16 and a sterilizer 17, as shown in the figure, Figure 2 The water outlet 102, the filter 16, the sterilizer 17 and the water daphnia propagation tank 2 are sequentially connected, so as to filter and sterilize the water daphnia culture water, of course, the filtering diameter of the filter 16 should be larger than the particle size of the water algae.

[0057] As shown in the figure, Figure 3As shown, the pulverizer 13 includes a base 131, a top seat 132, multiple branch plates 133, and an ultrasonic generator 134.

The branch plates 133 on the base 131 and the top seat 132 are alternately arranged, and the multiple branch plates 133 are parallel and spaced apart. The ends of the branch plates 133 are connected to... The inner wall of the overflow box 12 is sealed; the ultrasonic generators 134 are fixedly installed inside the base 131 and the top seat 132 respectively; when the two ultrasonic generators 134 are started, the branch plates 133 can be vibrated. When the algae pass through multiple branch plates 133 in an S-shaped path with the water used for the cultivation of Algae, the vibration of the branch plates 133 can not only accelerate the water flow, but also gather and break up the algae in the water; at the same time, the gap between two adjacent branch plates 133 is small, which can also filter impurities.

[0058] The main effects of ultrasound are cavitation, mechanical, thermal and thixotropic effects.

[0059] The cavitation effect of ultrasound refers to the dynamic process by which tiny bubble nuclei existing in a liquid undergo expansion and compression phases under the action of ultrasound. Their volume grows, contracts, regenerates, and contracts again. Through periodic oscillations, the bubble nuclei eventually collapse. When the ultrasonic frequency is less than or equal to the resonant frequency of the bubble, the bubble will break. The fragmentation and refinement of algae requires an ultrasonic frequency in the range of 28-500kHz.

[0060] The mechanical effect of ultrasound refers to the positive and negative pressures generated by the alternating compression and expansion of particles in biological tissues when ultrasound propagates in a medium. The effects caused by mechanical quantities such as velocity, acceleration, displacement, and pressure are also produced by this effect. The fragmentation and refinement of algae also occurs through this effect.

[0061] The thermal effect refers to the increase in temperature of a medium caused by the continuous absorption of its energy during the propagation of ultrasound. The mechanisms of this thermal effect include: heat generation through the loss (absorption) of acoustic energy density in the medium as ultrasound passes through the body; heat generation through alternating pressure changes and compression phases as ultrasound passes through the medium; and heat generation through the reflection of ultrasound energy at different tissue interfaces. In addition, the standing waves formed in different tissue media, causing friction between particles and ions, are another cause of heat generation. While ultrasound-induced temperature rise is not the primary mechanism of action in biological reactions, it is still an important influencing factor, providing some heat for the growth of algae or other marine organisms.

[0062] Thixotropy effect refers to the change of the bonding state of biological tissues caused by ultrasonic waves, such as the decrease of viscosity causing the plasma to become thinner and the blood cells to precipitate, etc., when the sound intensity is too high, the thixotropy effect is irreversible change, which will cause damage to biological tissues, thereby crushing and refining the water algae.

[0063] The phototrophic unit 3 is used for culturing water algae, and the phototrophic unit 3 comprises a phototrophic pipe 31, an LED light source 32 and an aeration pump 33, wherein the phototrophic pipe 31 is a transparent tubular structure, one end of which is in communication with the water outlet 102, and the other end is in communication with the daphnia propagation tank 2; the LED light source 32 is arranged outside the phototrophic pipe 31 and is used for providing light to the inside of the phototrophic pipe 31; the output end of the aeration pump 33 is in communication with the inside of the phototrophic pipe 31 and is used for providing air to the inside of the phototrophic pipe 31; as shown in Figure 1 When the demand for water algae in the daphnia propagation tank 2 is high, the water algae can be re-cultured by adding fresh concentrated algal liquid to the phototrophic pipe 31, and then added to the daphnia propagation tank 2 to meet the growth demand of daphnia; a water pump and a water quality sensor can also be arranged inside to circulate the algal liquid and detect the water quality in real time, thereby improving the growth efficiency of water algae.

[0064] As shown in Figure 4 The phototrophic pipe 31 comprises a plurality of branch pipes 311, the plurality of branch pipes 311 are arranged in parallel and at intervals and are connected in series in an S shape, so that the occupied space of the phototrophic pipe 31 can be reduced, and the number of LED light sources 32 can be reduced.

[0065] The in-situ expansion and cultivation unit 4 is used for keeping the normal environment of daphnia consistent with the water body, and the in-situ expansion and cultivation unit 4 comprises a lake 41 and a separation net 42, the separation net 42 is fixedly arranged in the lake 41 and forms an expansion and cultivation area 401 with the inner wall thereof, which is used for storing and cultivating the daphnia in the daphnia propagation tank 2, as shown in Figure 7 The separation net 42 separates the expansion and cultivation area 401 in the lake 41, and after the density of water algae in the daphnia propagation tank 2 reaches the specified index, the daphnia is added to the lake 41 in the expansion and cultivation area 401 for growth, which is beneficial to improve the expansion and cultivation efficiency of daphnia, and the separation net 42 not only avoids the diffusion of daphnia, but also avoids other organisms from entering the expansion and cultivation area 401.

[0066] The daphnia expansion and cultivation method of the present application is as follows:

[0067] S1, the water and water algae for daphnia cultivation are transported into the water storage bin 11 through the water inlet 101, and the ultrasonic generator 134 is started to drive the pulverizer 13 to crush the water algae;

[0068] During the period, if the size of the water algae is required to be larger, the size sensor 14 can be started, and when the size sensor 14 detects that the size of the water algae is larger than a specified value, the circulating pump 15 is started to draw the water algae in the water storage bin 11 back to the overflow box 12, and the pulverizer 13 is used to crush the water algae again;

[0069] S2, the water algae in the water storage bin 11 is filtered by the filter 16 and disinfected by the sterilizer 17, and then the water algae is flowed into the phototrophic unit 3 by the control of the pipeline;

[0070] S3, the LED light source 32 and the aeration pump 33 are opened to provide light and air for the propagation of the water algae, and the fresh and live concentrated algae liquid is added into the phototrophic tube 31;

[0071] S4, after the water algae in the phototrophic tube 31 is propagated to a preset density, the water algae is transported into the water flea propagation tank 2;

[0072] S5, according to the growth condition of the water flea, the pipeline is controlled to be opened or closed to select that the water algae in the pretreatment unit 1 is directly entered into the water flea propagation tank 2, or the water algae in the phototrophic unit 3 is entered into the water flea propagation tank 2, or the water algae in the pretreatment unit 1 and the water algae in the phototrophic unit 3 are entered into the water flea propagation tank 2 in a certain proportion;

[0073] S6, after the water flea in the water flea propagation tank 2 is propagated to a specified density or state, the mixed liquid in the water flea propagation tank 2 is added into the expansion propagation area 401.

[0074] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.

After the algae in the photo-nurturing tube (31) have multiplied to the preset density, they are transported to the aquatic daphne propagation tank (2). S5, control the opening and closing of the pipeline according to the growth status of Daphnia, so as to select whether to let the Daphnia culture water and algae in the pretreatment unit (1) directly enter the Daphnia propagation tank (2), or let the Daphnia culture water and algae in the photo-cultivation unit (3) enter the Daphnia propagation tank (2), or let the Daphnia culture water and algae in the pretreatment unit (1) and the Daphnia culture water and algae in the photo-cultivation unit (3) enter the Daphnia propagation tank (2) in proportion; S6. After the Daphnia glutinosa in the Daphnia glutinosa propagation tank (2) has grown to a specified density or state, the mixed solution in the Daphnia glutinosa propagation tank (2) is added to the propagation area (401).

7. The method for propagating Daphnia hydroponica as described in claim 6, characterized in that: In step S1, the particle size sensor (14) is activated. When the particle size sensor (14) detects that the particle size of the algae is greater than a specified value, the circulation pump (15) is activated to pump the algae in the water storage tank (11) back into the overflow box (12) and use the pulverizer (13) to crush the algae a second time.
