Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an aquaculture apparatus, in particular to a fish tank. Background Art

[0002] Fish tanks are generally made of transparent glass, forming a relatively stable small ecosystem inside. The water circulation and filtration of the fish tank is very important to the stability of the ecosystem. During use, there are suspended matter and other impurities of a certain size in the water layers of different depths in the fish tank. In order to ensure the cleanliness of the fish tank, it is necessary to rely on the circulating filtration system to filter out the suspended matter and other impurities in the fish tank. The water structure on the fish tank has a very important relationship with the water circulation inside the fish tank. The functional area of ​​the traditional fish tank accounts for a relatively large proportion, which results in a reduction in the breeding area and compresses the fish activity area in the fish tank. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the functional area of ​​the existing fish tank for water circulation accounts for a large proportion of the volume of the fish tank and occupies a large space. In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, a fish tank is provided.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0005] A fish tank is constructed, comprising a tank body, wherein the tank body comprises a functional area and a breeding area, and is characterized in that: the functional area and the breeding area are separated by a first partition, and the functional area is separated into a drainage area and a water inlet area by a second partition, the drainage area is connected to the drainage pipe storage area at the bottom of the fish tank, the lower end of the water inlet area is connected to the water inlet pipe storage area at the bottom of the fish tank, and the bottom and top of the fish tank breeding area are both connected to the drainage area, so that the breeding water at the top and bottom of the fish tank can enter the drainage area.

[0006] Preferably, the drainage area is divided into a first drainage area and a second drainage area by a vertically arranged third partition; wherein the height of the third partition is smaller than the height of the drainage area, so as to form a first water channel connecting the first drainage area and the second drainage area at the upper end of the third partition.

[0007] Preferably, the first drainage area is arranged adjacent to the water inlet area; a top drainage hole is provided on the first partition at the upper end of the first drainage area, so that the aquaculture water in the aquaculture area can enter the first drainage area through the top drainage hole; a bottom drainage hole is provided on the first partition at the lower end of the second drainage area, so that the aquaculture water at the bottom of the fish tank can enter the second drainage area through the bottom drainage hole.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the water inlet area is closed, and a water injection port is provided on the first partition plate at the upper end of the water inlet area, so that water in the water inlet area can flow back into the breeding area through the water injection port.

[0009] Preferably, the water inlet pipe storage area and the drainage pipe storage area are both buffer spaces arranged on the outside of the bottom of the fish tank. The water inlet pipe storage area is connected to the bottom of the water inlet area through the second water channel, and the drainage pipe storage area is connected to the bottom of the first drainage area through the third water channel.

[0010] Preferably, a return port connected to a return pipe of an external filtration system is provided at the bottom of the water inlet pipe storage area, and a drain port connected to a water inlet pipe of an external filtration system is provided at the bottom of the drainage pipe storage area.

[0011] Preferably, the thickness of the functional area is about 1-3 cm. Any value between 1 and 3 can be used, for example, 1 cm, 2 cm, or 3 cm. Of course, if the fish tank is large, the thickness of the functional area can be appropriately increased to ensure water flow in the functional area. The return port is staggered with the second water channel, and the drain port is staggered with the third water channel. The drain port and return port are located at the bottom of the fish tank and are shielded by the bottom of the fish tank to prevent the drain port and return port from being exposed and affecting the appearance.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the fish tank body of the present invention is divided into a functional area and a breeding area, and the back of the functional area is about 1-3 cm, so that the thickness of the functional area is relatively small while ensuring the water flow, so that the overall aesthetics of the fish tank is significantly improved; the thickness of the functional area is small, which also makes the functional area account for a smaller proportion in the fish tank body, thereby increasing the proportion of the breeding area in the tank body as much as possible, providing as much space as possible for fish farming.

[0017] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the following will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] In order to facilitate accurate understanding of the orientations or positions recorded in the following embodiments and to more accurately describe the positional relationship and connection relationship between the various components, the following definitions are made: the side walls of the fish tank in the length direction of the rectangular tank body are the front wall and the rear wall, and the two side walls in the width direction are the left wall and the right wall.

[0019] Combined with attachment Figure 1-3 A preferred embodiment of the present invention is a fish tank comprising a tank body 1, which is a rectangular parallelepiped structure with an open top. The tank body 1 is divided into a functional area 2 and a breeding area 3. Specifically, the functional area 2 and the breeding area 3 are separated by a first partition 10. The sides of the first partition 10 are fixedly connected to the front and rear walls of the tank body 1, and the bottom of the first partition 10 is connected to the bottom of the tank body 1. This connects the breeding area 3 to the bottom filter of the fish tank through the functional area 2, forming a circulating filtration system.

[0020] As an embodiment of the present invention, the functional area 2 is divided into a drainage area 201 and an inlet area 202 by a second partition 20. The bottom of the second partition 20 is tightly connected to the bottom of the fish tank 1 in the functional area 2, and the left and right sides of the second partition 20 are respectively connected to the first partition 10 located on one side of the functional area 2 and the inner side of the right side wall of the fish tank 1. The drainage area 201 is connected to the drainage pipe storage area 40 at the bottom of the fish tank 1, and the lower end of the inlet area 202 is connected to the inlet pipe storage area 50 at the bottom of the fish tank 1. The bottom and top of the breeding area 3 are both connected to the drainage area 201, so that the breeding water at the top and bottom of the fish tank 1 can enter the drainage area 201. In this way, the breeding water at the top and bottom of the breeding area 3 can enter the drainage area 201 to participate in circulation filtration, which is more conducive to the breeding water of each water layer in the breeding area 3 carrying impurities such as fish meal to participate in circulation filtration.

[0021] In some embodiments, the drainage area 201 is divided into a first drainage area 2011 and a second drainage area 2012 by a vertically arranged third partition 30; wherein the height of the third partition 30 is less than the height of the drainage area 201, so as to form a first water channel a connecting the first drainage area 2011 and the second drainage area 2012 at the upper end of the third partition 30.

[0022] It should be noted that the first drainage area 2011 is adjacent to the water inlet area 202. A top drainage hole 102 is provided on the first baffle 10 at the upper end of the first drainage area 2011, allowing aquaculture water from the aquaculture area 3 to enter the first drainage area 2011 through the top drainage hole 102. A bottom drainage hole 103 is provided on the first baffle 10 at the lower end of the second drainage area 2012, allowing aquaculture water from the bottom of the fish tank 1 to enter the second drainage area 2012 through the bottom drainage hole 103. Aquaculture water in the second drainage area 2012 enters the first drainage area 2011 through the first water channel a and mixes with aquaculture water from the upper portion of the fish tank that enters the first drainage area 2011 through the top drainage hole 102, thereby participating in a circulating filtration process.

[0023] Since the water inflow speed at the top is greater than the water inflow speed at the bottom, the width of the first drainage area 2011 is greater than the width of the second drainage area 2012. The width of the second drainage area 2012 is approximately half, one third or one quarter of the width of the first drainage area 2011 (the size of the first drainage area along the width of the fish tank).

[0024] In the present invention, the top of the water inlet area 202 is sealed, and a water inlet 101 is provided on the first baffle 10 at the upper end of the water inlet area 202, allowing water from the water inlet area 202 to flow back into the breeding area 3 through the water inlet 101. The water inlet 101 provided on the first baffle 10 serves as a water flow channel from the water inlet area 202 to the breeding area. When the rate at which clean water, after circulating filtration, enters the water inlet area 202 is slightly greater than the rate at which water is injected into the breeding area 3 through the water inlet 101, the filtered water forms a certain water pressure in the water inlet area 202, which in turn forms a strong injection flow at the water inlet 101, thereby enhancing the fluidity of the water in the breeding area 3.

[0025] Because the functional area 2 is relatively thin, the water inlet pipe storage area 50 and the drainage pipe storage area 40 are both located outside the bottom of the fish tank 1. The water inlet pipe storage area 50 is connected to the bottom of the water inlet area 202 via the second water channel b, and the drainage pipe storage area 40 is connected to the bottom of the first drainage area 2011 via the third water channel c. A return port connected to the return pipe of the external filtration system is provided at the bottom of the water inlet pipe storage area 50, and a drain port connected to the water inlet pipe of the external filtration system is provided at the bottom of the drainage pipe storage area 40. The return port is staggered with the second water channel, and the drain port is staggered with the third water channel. The drain port and the return port are located at the bottom of the fish tank and are shielded by the bottom of the fish tank. This allows the larger return port and drain port to be connected to the functional area with a smaller thickness, and prevents the return port and drain port from being exposed and affecting the aesthetics.

[0026] In some embodiments, the thickness of the functional area 2 is approximately 1-3 cm (the thickness of the functional area refers to the length of the functional area along the length of the tank). Any value between 1 and 3 cm can be used, for example, 1 cm, 2 cm, or 3 cm. Of course, if the fish tank is large, the thickness of the functional area can be appropriately increased to ensure water flow through the functional area, but the functional area should be kept relatively small in proportion to the total fish tank to maximize the breeding area.

[0027] It should be noted that in this practicality, each partition and the side wall and bottom wall of the fish tank are connected by glass glue.

[0028] It should be understood that the present invention is described by way of certain embodiments, and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent substitutions may be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Furthermore, under the guidance of the present invention, these features and embodiments may be modified to suit specific circumstances and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are intended to be protected by the present invention.
