[0020] In one specific embodiment, the aquaponics ecological cycle science popularization device with internal and external dual-view perspective provided in this application includes an aquaculture chamber 10, a planting chamber 20, a water circulation system 30, and a panoramic cylinder 40; wherein, the aquaculture chamber 10 can be set as a transparent water tank to accommodate fish or other aquatic organisms and provide living space for aquatic organisms; such as a transparent plastic or glass water tank, and has inlet and outlet and aeration device; the planting hole 211 of the planting chamber 20 is used to insert plant seedlings, using soilless cultivation methods, such as substrate culture or hydroponics, etc.; the planting chamber 20 can also be made of transparent plastic material; The planting chamber 20 includes two opposing planting side plates 21 and a bottom collection assembly 22. The two planting side plates 21 are inclined so that any nutrient solution dripping that is not absorbed by the plant is absorbed by the bottom collection assembly 22. The planting side plates 21 can be made of plastic or metal and have circular or square planting holes 211. A sponge block and planting basket or foam board is inserted into the planting hole 211 to fix the plant. The bottom collection assembly 22 includes a sloping guide channel and a liquid storage tank to recover excess nutrient solution. An internal root observation area is formed between the two planting side plates 21, and its open space facilitates root extension. The planting side plates 21 are detachable, making it easy to replace planting hole plates 211 of different sizes.
[0021] The water circulation system 30 is connected to the aquaculture chamber 10 and the planting chamber 20 respectively, and includes pumps, pipes, filters, etc. to realize the circulation of water between aquaculture and planting. The panoramic cylinder 40 runs through the interior of the aquaculture chamber 10 and the root observation area inside the planting chamber 20. It can be set as a transparent acrylic cylindrical pipe with its two ends connected to the aquaculture chamber and the internal root observation area respectively. At the same time, it allows users to observe the fish swimming and plant root growth at the same time through this channel, which enhances the educational and ornamental value of the system.
[0022] The specific working principle is as follows: Aquatic organisms (such as fish) excrete nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus in the aquaculture chamber 10; the water circulation system 30 transports the nutrient-rich water to the planting chamber 20; plants absorb nutrients from the water through their roots, achieving natural purification; unabsorbed liquid is collected by the bottom collection component 22 to prevent leakage and pollution; users can simultaneously observe the activity of aquatic organisms and the growth status of plant roots through the panoramic cylinder 40. The panoramic cylinder 40 can be made of transparent acrylic material and equipped with LED lighting to enhance the observation effect.
[0023] In one embodiment, the water circulation system 30 includes: The first water circulation component includes a first water pump 31 connected by a pipeline, a first filter component 32, a first water inlet component 33 connected to both ends of the first water pump 31, and a first water outlet component 34. The first water inlet component 33 is located inside the breeding chamber 10, and the first water outlet component 34 is located inside the root observation area, supplying water to the plant roots inside the planting side plate 21.
[0024] The first water pump 31 can be configured as a miniature DC submersible pump; the first filter assembly 32 can be a filter chamber composed of multiple layers of filter cotton, activated carbon, and biological ceramic particles; the first water inlet assembly 33 is a water inlet with a filter screen to prevent the intake of large pieces of fish feces; and the first water outlet assembly 34 is a porous water distribution pipe or a drip irrigation nozzle to evenly distribute the water flow.
[0025] Fish excrement dissolves in the water, forming a body of water rich in nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus. After the first water pump 31 is started, it draws nutrient-rich water from the breeding chamber 10 through the first water inlet component 33. The water flows through the first filter component 32 to remove large particles of impurities and then enters the pipe. The first water outlet component 34 accurately delivers the treated water to the root observation area inside the planting chamber 20. The plant roots absorb nutrients from the water and at the same time purify the water. Unabsorbed water is collected by the bottom collection component 22, forming a closed-loop water circulation system 30.
[0026] The system comprises the following components: a first water inlet assembly 33 located inside the aquaculture chamber 10, used to draw water rich in fish metabolic products; a first filter assembly 32 employing multi-layered physical and biochemical filter materials to effectively remove suspended particles and harmful substances from the water; a first water pump 31 being a miniature DC submersible pump that can automatically start and stop according to a set program; and a first water outlet assembly 34 located in the root observation area inside the planting chamber 20, supplying water to the plant roots via drip irrigation or micro-spraying. This water circulation system 30 not only achieves efficient utilization of the aquaculture water but also enhances the plant's absorption efficiency of nutrients through directional water supply, contributing to the construction of a stable and efficient aquaponics ecosystem.
[0027] Specifically, the first filtration component 32 includes a sedimentation filtration tank 321, a sterilization lamp tank 322, a nitrifying bacteria tank 323, and a filter screen tank 324 arranged in sequence. The sedimentation filtration tank 321 is connected to the first inlet water component 33, and the first water pump 31 is located inside the sedimentation filtration tank 321. The filter screen tank 324 is connected to the first outlet water component 34.
[0028] Primary filtration is performed in sedimentation filter tank 321 to remove large particles such as fish feces and uneaten food. UV sterilization lamp tank 322 contains UV sterilization lamps to kill pathogenic microorganisms in the water. Nitrifying bacteria tank 323 is rich in nitrifying bacteria, which convert ammonia nitrogen into nitrates that plants can absorb. Fine filtration is performed at the end of the filter tank 324 to intercept tiny suspended solids. The first water pump 31 is located within sedimentation filter tank 321 for easy water intake and flow control. Water treated in these four stages enters the first effluent assembly 34 through pipes, providing targeted supply to the plant root zone. Sedimentation filter tank 321 may have a layered structure with baffles to slow water flow and promote sedimentation. UV-C sterilization lamp tank 322 is embedded with a transparent outer shell. Nitrifying bacteria tank 323 is filled with porous ceramic rings or biological packing material to provide space for bacterial attachment. Filter tank 324 has a multi-layer stainless steel / PP filter combination to intercept fine particles.
[0029] The specific working principle is as follows: the first water inlet component 33 draws nutrient-rich water from the aquaculture chamber 10 and sends it into the sedimentation and filtration tank 321; in the sedimentation tank, large particles settle and separate; the water flows into the sterilization lamp tank 322, where ultraviolet light irradiates and kills pathogens and harmful microorganisms; then it enters the nitrifying bacteria tank 323, where biofilm technology is used to convert ammonia nitrogen into nitrate; finally, it undergoes fine filtration through the filter screen tank 324 to remove residual particles; the water that has undergone multi-stage purification is transported by the first water pump 31 to the first water outlet component 34, and is directed to the plant root area; the entire system forms an efficient and stable water quality circulation mechanism, ensuring the healthy coexistence of fish and plants.
[0030] The sterilization lamp tank 322 is equipped with replaceable ultraviolet sterilization lamps and a quartz glass sleeve to prevent water from directly contacting the lamps; the nitrifying bacteria tank 323 is filled with honeycomb ceramic packing material to provide sufficient biofilm attachment area. The filter screen in the filter tank 324 has a detachable structure for easy cleaning or replacement.
[0031] In one specific embodiment, the first filtration component 32 includes a sedimentation filter tank 321, a sterilization lamp tank 322, a nitrifying bacteria tank 323, and a filter screen tank 324 arranged sequentially. The sedimentation filter tank 321 is connected to the first water inlet component 33 and is used to initially remove large particulate impurities such as fish feces and uneaten food from the water. The sterilization lamp tank 322 has a built-in ultraviolet sterilization lamp for killing pathogenic microorganisms in the water. The nitrifying bacteria tank 323 is filled with biological packing material for cultivating nitrifying bacteria, converting ammonia nitrogen produced by fish metabolism into nitrates that can be absorbed by plants. The filter screen tank 324 adopts a multi-layer filter screen structure to intercept fine suspended solids and improve water transparency. The purified water is then delivered to the first water outlet component 34 to achieve precise water supply to the plant roots in the planting chamber 20. This multi-stage filtration structure not only improves water purification efficiency but also effectively maintains the ecological balance of the aquaponics system, making it suitable for various scenarios such as home balconies, educational experiments, and small-scale agricultural applications.
[0032] In another embodiment, a second water pump 325 is also included, located within the filter screen pool 324, and connected to the first water outlet assembly 34 for pressurization. The second water pump 325 is used for secondary pressurization to ensure stable water output and increase water pressure to overcome the resistance of subsequent pipes, sprinklers, or drip irrigation systems, and to deliver the treated water to the plant root observation area.
[0033] The second water pump 325 is configured as a micro booster pump with pressure regulation function. It can be installed at the bottom of the filter tank 324 or embedded inside the tank. It is used to pressurize the water flow after four stages of treatment to overcome the flow resistance caused by subsequent pipelines, valves, and water outlet components. The outlet of the second water pump 325 is connected to the first water outlet component 34 to ensure that the purified nutrient solution can be efficiently and evenly delivered to the root observation area inside the planting chamber 20. The second water pump 325 is preferably a low-power micro booster pump, which can be automatically started and stopped by the controller according to the system operating status, or it can work in conjunction with the first water pump 31 to ensure the stability and continuity of the entire water circulation system 30. This pressurization design is particularly suitable for multi-layer planting structures or applications with high demand for long-distance water distribution, significantly improving system adaptability and irrigation efficiency.
[0034] The specific working principle is as follows: After sedimentation, sterilization, nitrifying bacteria transformation and fine filtration, the water flows into the filter screen pool 324; the second water pump 325 installed in the filter screen pool 324 is started to pressurize the purified water; the pressurized water is transported to the first water outlet component 34 through the pipeline; the water outlet component supplies water evenly to the plant root area in the form of drip irrigation, micro-spraying or multi-hole water distribution; this design effectively improves water distribution efficiency and avoids the problem of insufficient water supply caused by long pipelines and high resistance.
[0035] In another embodiment, the first water inlet assembly 33 includes a first water inlet pipe 331 and a first water inlet collection pipe 332, the first water inlet collection pipe 332 being provided with a plurality of water inlet holes; and / or, the first water outlet assembly 34 includes a first water outlet main pipe 341 and a plurality of first water outlet branch pipes 342, each of the first water outlet branch pipes 342 being provided with a plurality of atomizing nozzles 343.
[0036] The first water inlet assembly 33 is a device for drawing nutrient-rich water from the cultivation chamber 10. The first water inlet pipe 331 serves as the main water supply pipe, connecting the water pump and the collection pipe. The first water inlet collection pipe 332 has a porous structure to improve water intake efficiency. The water inlet holes are evenly arranged on the first water inlet collection pipe 332 for uniform water absorption. The first water outlet assembly 34 delivers the treated water to the plant root area. The first water outlet main pipe 341 is the main water outlet pipe, connecting the second water pump 325 and each first water outlet branch pipe 342. The first water outlet branch pipes 342 are distributed inside the planting chamber 20. The atomizing nozzle 343 is used to atomize the water flow to improve the absorption efficiency of the plant roots.
[0037] Preferably, the first water inlet collection pipe 332 is arranged laterally at the bottom of the aquaculture chamber 10. Water rich in fish metabolic products within the aquaculture chamber 10 is drawn through the water inlet holes on the first water inlet collection pipe 332 to prevent excessive local suction from causing water flow disturbance or fish injury. Four first water outlet branch pipes 342 are provided, each corresponding to one of the two planting side plates 21. Each planting side plate 21 has a first water outlet branch pipe 342 at its top and bottom to cover the entire area of the planting side plate 21. Preferably, the atomizing nozzle 343 is an adjustable-angle atomizing nozzle capable of automatically adjusting the spray direction.
[0038] In another alternative embodiment, it further includes: The second water circulation component includes a planting water collection pump 326, a second filter component 327, a second water inlet component 328, and a second water outlet component 329 connected by a pipeline; the second water inlet component 328 is connected to the bottom collection component 22, and the second water outlet component 329 is located inside the breeding chamber 10.
[0039] The second water circulation component enables the return flow from the planting chamber 20 to the breeding chamber 10. The planting water pump 326 lifts the wastewater collected at the bottom of the planting chamber 20 back to the breeding chamber 10. The second filter component 327 filters the return water again to prevent pollution of the breeding environment. The second water inlet component 328 is connected to the bottom collection component 22 and is used to extract wastewater. The second water outlet component 329 discharges the treated water into the breeding chamber 10 to complete the water return. The bottom collection component 22 collects the nutrient solution that has not been absorbed by the plants to prevent leakage and pollution.
[0040] In the first water circulation component, water from the aquaculture chamber 10 is pumped to the planting chamber 20 for irrigating plant roots; unabsorbed water is collected by the bottom collection component 22; the second water circulation component is activated: the planting water collection pump 326 draws wastewater from the bottom collection component 22; the wastewater passes through the second filtration component 327 to remove impurities from the residual nutrient solution; the treated water is discharged back into the aquaculture chamber 10 through the second outlet component 329; thus forming a complete closed-loop water circulation system of "aquaculture → planting → aquaculture"; this system improves water resource utilization, reduces the frequency of artificial water replenishment, and ensures stable water quality.
[0041] The second filtration component 327 includes a multi-layer filter screen, an activated carbon adsorption layer, and an ultraviolet sterilization module, used to remove suspended solids and harmful microorganisms from the return water. The second water outlet component 329 is a spray pipe with a flow regulating valve, located at the bottom of the aquaculture chamber 10, used to uniformly replenish water and enhance the dissolved oxygen content of the water.

[0043] There are two aquaculture chambers 10, each with two independent water spaces to accommodate fish or different species of organisms. They are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the planting chamber 20 to form a linear structural layout. The observation channel runs through the aquaculture area → planting area → aquaculture area on the other side, achieving long-term visual transparency.
[0044] The specific working principle is as follows: two aquaculture chambers 10 are respectively located at the left and right (or front and back) ends of the planting chamber 20; each aquaculture chamber 10 can operate independently, and the panoramic cylinder 40 runs through the entire length of the device: users can observe the plant root area from one side of the aquaculture area; and continue to the other side of the aquaculture area; forming an integrated structure layout of "dual aquaculture + single planting"; which not only improves the system's ornamental and educational display effects, but also facilitates the design of comparative experiments (such as different water quality / fish / plant combinations).
[0045] It is understood that a second water outlet component 329 and a first water inlet component 33 are respectively provided in each aquaculture chamber 10, and the two are arranged opposite each other along the transverse direction of the aquaculture chamber 10.

[0050] The filtration chamber 50 is located on top of the planting chamber 20 and is an independent, enclosed space. It integrates key components of the water circulation system 30, including a water pump, filtration components, and inlet / outlet pipes. This structure not only improves the system's integration but also prevents external environmental influences on the water circulation components, while enhancing the overall aesthetics of the device.

Combined with the panoramic cylinder 40 or transparent side panels, the trapezoidal structure makes it easier to observe the root system and aquatic organisms. When multiple units are spliced together, the trapezoidal structure can be arranged compactly, saving space. The aquaculture chamber 10 is a trapezoidal tank with a bottom width greater than the top opening, which not only enhances the structural stability of the tank but also helps to reduce dead zones in water flow and improve water circulation efficiency. The planting chamber 20 also adopts a trapezoidal structure, with multiple planting holes 211 on its inner side for inserting planting baskets and fixing hydroponically grown plants. This structure ensures planting space while improving the overall aesthetics and anti-tipping performance of the device. In addition, the trapezoidal structure combined with transparent materials can effectively improve the user's observation view of the internal ecosystem, making it particularly suitable for teaching demonstrations, science popularization displays, and home balcony planting scenarios. Adjacent devices are modularly connected via a trapezoidal structure to form multiple interconnected aquaponics systems.

[0056] In one embodiment, the second human body detection component is located on the advertising chamber, detecting the presence of human activity within the advertising area as a sensing signal source to trigger subsequent functions; the display screen is located on the top surface of the advertising chamber, playing pre-stored science videos to provide more intuitive video explanations and enhance the science display effect. In other embodiments, the display screen can also be located on the side wall of the advertising chamber, and the position of the display screen can be set as needed; the control component is connected to the second human body detection component and the control component; when human activity is detected in the advertising chamber area, the display screen is controlled to play the pre-stored science videos.
[0057] The second human detection component can be set as an infrared sensor or other types of sensor. The display screen has a voice player. When a visitor approaches, the display content is automatically switched from a static poster to a dynamic flowchart (such as an animated demonstration of "aquaculture wastewater → filtration and purification → vegetable absorption"), and the corresponding voice explanation is played simultaneously to improve the efficiency of information transmission.
[0058] The first water circulation component activates timed irrigation during non-public display hours or at night, such as spraying once every five minutes for one minute each time; during the day or public display hours, it performs intelligent sensing irrigation based on the first human body detection component.
[0059] A water temperature sensor, aquarium heater, and temperature display screen are added to the aquaculture chamber to monitor the water temperature in real time and maintain it between 20 and 28°C. A dissolved oxygen sensor is also added, which automatically starts the aeration pump when the dissolved oxygen level is <5 mg / L and shuts it off when the dissolved oxygen level is ≥7 mg / L. A water quality sensor is also added to provide real-time feedback on ammonia nitrogen concentration and turbidity data. When the ammonia nitrogen concentration or turbidity exceeds the preset threshold, an alarm for abnormal water quality is triggered, and the control components automatically increase the power of the filter pump, accelerate the water circulation speed, extend the UV lamp irradiation time, and start the aeration device in the nitrifying bacteria tank.
[0060] The control component integrates data from various sensors and displays key parameters such as current humidity, water temperature, ammonia nitrogen concentration, and circulating water flow rate in real time on the external central control display screen. Dynamic arrows are used to mark the water flow path and the direction of energy / matter conversion. Visitors can intuitively understand how sensors simulate biological perception and how the control system maintains ecological balance, combining the abstract concept of "ecological cycle" with "intelligent technology" to expand the scope of popular science education.
