Jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device

Abstract

The present application belongs to the field of aquatic organism breeding, and in particular, relates to a jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device. The breeding tank is designed to be formed by two spaced vertical plates and an arc-shaped plate connected between the two vertical plates, so that the breeding tank has an arc-shaped bottom. The breeding tank is provided with a drain outlet at the lowest point of the arc-shaped plate, and a plug is used to block the drain outlet. One end of the air supply pipe is passed into the breeding tank. The air pump supplies air to the breeding tank through the air supply pipe, and pneumatically moves the jellyfish disc-shaped body and bait in the tank to prevent the disc-shaped body and bait from sinking to the bottom, so that the disc-shaped body can well prey on the bait in the tank. Because the disc-shaped body has a weak swimming ability, after the air supply is stopped, the disc-shaped body will settle at the bottom of the tank. The rubber plug is pulled out of the operating handle to open the drain outlet, and the disc-shaped body is discharged from the breeding tank through the drain pipe along with the water flow. In the early stage of drainage, a container can be used to collect the jellyfish disc-shaped body at the end of the drain pipe away from the drain outlet. The operation is simple and convenient for changing water.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of aquatic organism breeding, and in particular to a jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device. Background Art

[0002] After obtaining the jellyfish disc through asexual reproduction of the polyp, how to quickly raise the disc into a beautiful jellyfish to meet the requirements of the jellyfish adult exhibition, feeding the disc and water quality management are the key. The jellyfish disc has weak swimming ability and needs sufficient food in the breeding water to develop into a jellyfish larvae. It has high requirements for water quality and needs to be raised in clean seawater.

[0003] The existing jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding generally places the disc-shaped body in a water tank or bucket and feeds newly hatched Artemia nauplii (body length 300μm-400μm). Since the minimum umbrella diameter of the newly hatched disc-shaped body of various jellyfish is only about 1mm, the swimming and predation ability is weak, and the effect of feeding Artemia is also compromised, resulting in the same batch of disc-shaped bodies often having large differences in size. The water is mainly sucked out by hose siphoning, and then new water is added. When using hose siphoning to change water, it is easy to suck out the disc-shaped body repeatedly, which is inconvenient to operate. Utility Model Content

[0038] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0039] It should also be noted that, in the embodiments of the present application, the same figure mark is used to represent the same component or the same part. For the same parts in the embodiments of the present application, the figure may only mark one of the parts or components as an example. It should be understood that the figure mark also applies to other identical parts or components.

[0040] As described in the background technology, the minimum umbrella diameter of the jellyfish disc is only about 1 mm, and the swimming and predation abilities are weak, and the effect of feeding Artemia is also compromised. The water is mainly sucked out by siphoning with a hose, and then new water is added. When using a hose siphon to change water, it is easy to suck out the disc repeatedly, which is inconvenient to operate.

[0041] In order to solve the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device, such as Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, the jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device includes a breeding tank 100, a drain pipe 200, a plug 300 and an air supply pipe 400. The breeding tank 100 includes two vertical plates 110 arranged at intervals and an arc plate 120 connected between the two vertical plates 110. The arc plate 120 and the two vertical plates 110 enclose the breeding tank 100, and the breeding tank 100 is provided with a drain port 101 at the lowest point of the arc plate 120. The drain pipe 200 is connected to the drain port 101. The plug 300 includes a handle 310 and a rubber plug 320 arranged on the handle 310. The handle 310 can be manipulated to insert the rubber plug 320 into the drain port 101 from the breeding tank 100 or to pull it out from the drain port 101. One end of the air supply pipe 400 is passed into the interior of the breeding tank 100, and the other end is used to connect an air pump (not shown in the figure).

[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, the jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device is designed to enclose the breeding tank 100 by two spaced vertical plates 110 and an arc-shaped plate 120 connected between the two vertical plates 110, so that the breeding tank 100 has an arc-shaped bottom. The breeding tank 100 is provided with a drain port 101 at the lowest point of the arc-shaped plate 120 (i.e., the lowest point of the arc-shaped bottom), and the plugging member 300 is used to plug the drain port 101. One end of the air supply pipe 400 is passed into the breeding tank 100. During the breeding process, the breeding tank 100 is filled with seawater and jellyfish disc-shaped bodies, and the air pump supplies air to the breeding tank 100 through the air supply pipe 400, and the jellyfish disc-shaped body and the bait are moved in the tank by pneumatic force, so as to prevent the disc-shaped body and the bait from sinking to the bottom, so as to facilitate the disc-shaped body to well prey on the bait in the tank. Since the disc-shaped body has a weak swimming ability, after the air supply is stopped, the disc-shaped body settles to the bottom of the tank. At this time, the rubber plug 320 is pulled out by the control handle 310 to open the drain port 101, and the disc-shaped body is discharged from the breeding tank 100 through the drain pipe 200 along with the water flow. Since the disc-shaped body that sinks to the bottom will be discharged first along with the water flow, it is only necessary to use a container to collect the jellyfish disc-shaped body at the end of the drain pipe 200 away from the drain port 101 in the early stage of drainage. After all the water in the breeding tank 100 is drained, the rubber plug 320 is inserted into the drain port 101 from the breeding tank 100 by the control handle 310, and then new seawater is added to the breeding tank 100, and finally the jellyfish disc-shaped body is put in to complete the entire water change process. The operation is simple to change the water.

[0043] Specifically, the curved plate 120 has a curvature, which can be understood as being formed by cutting off one side of a cylindrical component. In one embodiment, the diameter of the curved plate 120 is R=200 mm, the axial length is 150 mm, and the bottom of the curved plate 120 is 70 mm above the vertical plate 110. It can be made of PVC material or heat-bent glass.

[0044] In one embodiment, if Figure 2As shown, the air supply pipe 400 is connected to the middle of the aquaculture tank 100, and preferably, the air outlet of the air supply pipe 400 faces the bottom of the tank. With this design, after the air is pumped into the air supply pipe 400, the jellyfish disc-shaped body and the bait can be pneumatically moved in a circle along the inside of the arc plate 120 in the tank, further improving the ability of the disc-shaped body to catch the bait in the tank.

[0045] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a one-way valve 410 is provided on the air supply pipe 400 for one-way gas flow into the aquaculture tank 100. The one-way valve 410 is provided to prevent the seawater in the aquaculture tank 100 from flowing back through the air supply pipe 400 after the ventilation is stopped.

[0046] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the handle 310 is in the shape of a round rod, the rubber plug 320 is arranged at one end of the handle 310 in the length direction, and the length of the handle 310 is greater than the depth of the breeding tank 100.

[0047] The handle 310 is designed to be in the shape of a round rod, which is convenient and easy to obtain. Specifically, the handle 310 can be made by cutting a suitable length from a round tube or a round rod. The length of the handle 310 is designed to be greater than the depth of the breeding tank 100, so that the end of the handle 310 away from the rubber plug 320 can extend out of the breeding tank 100, which is convenient for manipulating the handle 310 to insert the rubber plug 320 into the drain 101 from the breeding tank 100 or to pull it out from the drain 101.

[0048] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a switch valve 210 is provided at one end of the drain pipe 200 away from the drain outlet 101. By providing the switch valve 210, water leakage from the drain outlet 101 is prevented when the blocking member 300 does not block the drain outlet 101 tightly. Specifically, the switch valve 210 can be a manual valve.

[0049] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device also includes a water bathtub 500, the breeding tank 100 is arranged in the water bathtub 500, and the end of the drain pipe 200 away from the drain port 101 passes through the tank wall of the water bathtub 500 and is led outward. The water bathtub 500 is used to control the temperature of the breeding tank 100.

[0050] By adding water of different temperatures into the water bath 500, the temperature of the water bath in the breeding tank 100 is controlled to meet the temperature requirements of different jellyfish species.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 3A temperature sensor (not shown in the figure) for detecting water temperature is arranged in the water bathtub 500. A water outlet and a water return port are arranged on the side of the water bathtub 500. The water outlet and the water return port are connected through a circulation pipe 600. A water pump 700 and a cooling and heating machine 800 are arranged on the circulation pipe 600. The water pump 700 provides power for the water in the water bathtub 500 to flow from the water outlet to the water return port in the circulation. The cooling and heating machine 800 is used to cool or heat the water flowing through the circulation pipe 600.

[0052] Through the above arrangement, the temperature of the water in the bathtub 500 can be accurately regulated by using the temperature sensor, the circulation pipe 600, the water pump 700 and the cooling and heating machine 800 to cooperate with each other.

[0053] Furthermore, the water outlet and the water return port are respectively located on opposite sides of the water bathtub 500. Thus, the water circulation flow path in the water bathtub 500 is extended, so that the water temperature in the water bathtub 500 is more uniform as a whole.

[0054] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device includes a plurality of breeding tanks 100, and the plurality of breeding tanks 100 are arranged side by side in a water bath 500. Thus, the plurality of breeding tanks 100 use one water bath 500 together, saving equipment costs.

[0055] It should be noted that, in order to further save costs, the jellyfish disc-shaped body breeding device in the embodiment of the present application is only equipped with one air pump 10, the air outlet of the air pump 10 is connected to the main air pipe 20, and the air supply pipe 400 on each breeding tank 100 is used to connect the air pump 10. One end is connected to the main air pipe 20. In order to facilitate the separate control of the on and off of each air supply pipe 400, an on-off valve 420 is respectively arranged on each air supply pipe 400.

[0056] In some specific embodiments, the breeding tank 100 and the water bath 500 are both made of transparent materials, so as to facilitate observation of the seawater quality and the growth of the jellyfish disc in the breeding tank 100 .

[0057] Specifically, the two vertical plates 110 of the breeding tank 100 can be rectangular PVC plates, rectangular acrylic plates or rectangular glass plates of the same size, and the curved plate 120 of the breeding tank 100 can be curved PVC plates, curved acrylic plates or hot-bent glass, and the two vertical plates 110 and the curved plate 120 are bonded by glue. The water bathtub 500 can be formed by bonding multiple PVC plates or glass plates.

[0058] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0059] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the attached claims.
