Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fish tank, specifically a smart home fish tank capable of automatically changing water, belonging to the field of fish tank technology. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, many smart home products have emerged around the Internet of Things (IoT), providing great convenience to our daily lives. For example, in pet care equipment, the market already offers many AI-powered devices and accessories, such as automatic feeding systems, variable frequency temperature control, and anti-lost collars. The development of supporting products for aquatic animals started later, with intelligent research only entering the public eye in the last two years. Currently, the most common fish-keeping tools in flower and bird markets are simple devices like heaters, air pumps, and aquatic plants. However, in the actual daily life of keeping ornamental fish, most ordinary aquariums can only provide basic physical filtration and aeration, lacking real-time water quality monitoring and automatic water changes. To maintain water quality suitable for the long-term health of fish, most home aquariums often require one or more different filtration devices to form a water circulation system. For example, adding a bio-ball (to cultivate nitrifying bacteria to remove uneaten food and excrement) is necessary. Heaters and air pumps are also needed to control water temperature and pH. If the aquarium contains aquatic plants and algae, a plant sterilizer is also required. These products each have their advantages and disadvantages, but combining them makes it difficult to form an effective water purification system.

[0003] Currently, maintaining clean water and ensuring the growth of fish and plants is an important part of daily maintenance. However, most household fish tanks are made of glass, which is large and inconvenient to clean and change regularly, posing certain safety hazards. Moreover, judging the cleanliness of the water in the fish tank by visual inspection is not scientific. Therefore, we provide a smart household fish tank that can automatically change the water to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a smart home fish tank capable of automatic water changing, with the specific technical solution as follows:

[0005] A smart home aquarium capable of automatic water changing includes a base, a tank body, and a combination frame. A first micro water pump is installed at the top of the base, and a second micro water pump is installed at the top of the base, with the second micro water pump located to one side of the first micro water pump. A water quality monitoring sensor and a water level sensor are installed on the inner side of the tank body. A turbidity monitoring sensor and a float switch are installed at the bottom of the combination frame.

[0006] Preferably, the cylinder is located at the top of the base, and the cylinder is located outside the No. 1 micro water pump and the No. 2 micro water pump.

[0007] Preferably, the combination frame is disposed at the top of the cylinder body, a through groove is provided inside the combination frame, and a mounting groove is provided inside the combination frame, with the mounting groove located in front of the through groove. The turbidity monitoring sensor and the float switch are both disposed inside the mounting groove.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the combination frame is provided with a mounting shell, and the mounting shell is located on one side of the through groove, and the control module is provided inside the mounting shell.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the combination frame is provided with a combination cover, the interior of which is provided with multiple sets of ventilation holes, and the interior of the combination cover is provided with a display, which is located above the control module.

[0010] Preferably, both the No. 1 and No. 2 micro water pumps are equipped with water delivery pipes at their top ends, and the water delivery pipes can move through the interior of the through groove.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. In this utility model, by setting up components such as a float switch, while automatically pumping out sewage, a water quality monitoring sensor monitors the water conductivity. If the water conductivity is less than 1, it indicates that the sensor position is in a waterless state. The minimum water level of the fish tank is controlled by the sensor position. By using a TDS sensor, a turbidity sensor, a float switch, etc., the water pump and the water injection pump are controlled to achieve intelligent water changing. A cleaning step is added during the water injection process, which can effectively utilize circulation cleaning to reduce the presence of residual fish food and excrement in the fish tank. When the water quality reaches the set TDS value, water is continued to be filled until the float switch is activated, thus achieving effective cleaning and intelligent water changing of the fish tank.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 A smart home fish tank that can automatically change the water;

[0022] The device includes a base 1, a cylinder 2, and a combination frame 5. A first micro water pump 15 is installed at the top of the base 1, and a second micro water pump 17 is installed at the top of the base 1, with the second micro water pump 17 located to one side of the first micro water pump 15. A water quality monitoring sensor 3 and a water level sensor 4 are installed inside the cylinder 2. A turbidity monitoring sensor 11 and a float switch 10 are installed at the bottom of the combination frame 5.

[0023] The water level sensor 4 consists of two sensing devices: one for water injection and one for water pumping, which read the corresponding water level heights. Both excessively high and low water levels are unsafe; excessively high levels pose a risk of overflowing water and excessively low levels risk fish suffering from oxygen deprivation. The water quality monitoring sensor 3 uses a water conductivity sensor, suitable for measuring general household water quality. Using a TDS sensor as the primary water quality monitoring sensor 3, it effectively reflects the relationship between the concentration of metal ions in the water and the water's hardness and conductivity. A higher TDS value indicates poorer water quality, which is detrimental to fish survival. The No. 1 micro water pump 15 and No. 2 micro water pump 17 are mainly divided into a pumping pump and a water injection pump. The turbidity monitoring sensor 11 is a device used to measure the degree of turbidity caused by suspended particles in water. These devices play an important role in environmental monitoring, water quality management, and wastewater treatment. The turbidity monitoring sensor 11 is typically based on the principle of light scattering or transmission, calculating the turbidity value by measuring the degree to which light passing through the water sample is scattered or absorbed by suspended particles.

[0024] When the TDS value exceeds a certain value (the specific value can be set according to each family's different standards for cleanliness, but generally, a value exceeding 100 is considered unsuitable for fish to live in);

[0025] The first step is to start the No. 1 micro water pump 15 (water pump) to draw the dirty water out of the tank 2 and leave a small amount of water at the bottom of the tank (the water quality monitoring sensor 3 placed at the bottom of the fish tank is used as the basis for judging whether the water has been completely drawn out. When the TDS value is <1, it can be considered that the sewage has been completely drawn out) to ensure that the fish have enough living space.

[0026] In the second step, control module 9 automatically opens the solenoid valve to control the water inlet switch. The water inlet duration can be set manually, referring to the previous pumping duration. If the set TDS value has been reached after water injection, clean water is added again; if the set value has not been reached, the pumping-injecting-pumping process is repeated several times (currently, the maximum value for this value in the software is set to 10 cleaning cycles) until the TDS value meets our set requirements. Turbidity monitoring sensor 11 is simultaneously monitored as an auxiliary parameter.

[0027] Third, continue adding clean water until the float switch closes, and the fish tank is filled with clean water.

[0028] During the aquarium's functional and process testing, the control module 9 and hardware functions inside the aquarium equipment can fully realize the system's capabilities. The system is reliable, responds promptly, and can fully perform real-time monitoring and automatic water changes.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 A smart home fish tank that can automatically change the water;

[0030] The cylinder body 2 is located at the top of the base 1, outside the first micro water pump 15 and the second micro water pump 17. The combination frame 5 is located at the top of the cylinder body 2. A through groove 6 is opened through the inside of the combination frame 5. An installation groove 7 is opened through the inside of the combination frame 5 and is located in front of the through groove 6. The turbidity monitoring sensor 11 and the float switch 10 are both installed through the installation groove 7. An installation shell 8 is provided at the top of the combination frame 5 and is located on one side of the through groove 6. A control module 9 is provided inside the installation shell 8. A combination cover 12 is provided at the top of the combination frame 5. Multiple sets of vent holes 13 are opened through the inside of the combination cover 12. A display 14 is installed through the inside of the combination cover 12 and is located above the control module 9. Water supply pipes 16 are provided at the top of the first micro water pump 15 and the second micro water pump 17 and are movable through the inside of the through groove 6.

[0031] The base 1, tank 2, assembly frame 5, and assembly cover 12 are the main components of the aquarium. The tank 2 is sealed at the top of the base 1. The cavity formed after the tank 2 and the base 1 are assembled can store water. One side of the assembly cover 12 is hinged to the assembly frame 5. The assembly cover 12 can cover the space above the assembly frame 5 at the top of the tank 2. The through groove 6 provides a through space for the water supply pipes 16 of the first micro water pump 15 and the second micro water pump 17. The mounting groove 7 provides a movable through mounting support for the turbidity monitoring sensor 11 and the float switch 10.

[0032] Control module 9 mainly consists of two modules: the monitoring module and the control module 9 subsystem.

[0033] The monitoring module includes a TDS sensor, water level monitoring (pumping: the position of the TDS sensor is directly calculated to simultaneously pump out the contaminated water), and water injection (double insurance: implemented using a float switch 10 and a program in the software). The control module 9 includes display function, water exchange function, and time function (using a microcontroller to write a program to set the pumping time, water injection time, number of cleaning times, etc.).

[0034] The second part, the software design, not only realizes the data collection, transmission and display of aquarium water quality, but also realizes the control of hardware;

[0035] The water quality monitoring sensor 3 in this practical design also has a water level detection function: it cleverly shares the water quality monitoring sensor 3, and while automatically pumping out sewage, it uses the water quality monitoring sensor 3 to monitor the water conductivity. If the water conductivity is less than 1, it indicates that the sensor position is in a waterless state. The minimum water level of the aquarium is controlled by the sensor position. This practical design monitors the TDS sensor, turbidity monitoring sensor 11, float switch 10, etc., through process requirements, and controls the water pump and water injection pump to achieve intelligent water changing. A cleaning step is added during the water injection process, which can effectively utilize circulation cleaning to reduce the presence of residual fish food and excrement in the aquarium. When the water quality reaches the set TDS value, the water continues to be filled until the float switch 10 is activated, realizing effective cleaning and intelligent water changing of the aquarium.

[0036] The electrical equipment mentioned in this application are all common electrical equipment in the prior art. This application will not elaborate on their models or internal structures, and they can also be replaced by other power sources.

These descriptions are merely for explaining the principles of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model in any way. Based on this explanation, those skilled in the art can readily conceive of other specific embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort, and these embodiments will all fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
