Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drug sustained-release technology, specifically to a traditional Chinese medicine sustained-release device for disinfection in aquaculture. Background Technology

[0002] In aquaculture, disinfection is a crucial step in ensuring the health of aquatic animals such as fish and shrimp. Traditional Chinese medicine, as a traditional method of disinfection and disease prevention, is gaining increasing attention due to its safety and environmental friendliness. To improve the efficiency of traditional Chinese medicine use and reduce waste, the application of slow-release devices is particularly important.

[0003] Existing slow-release devices typically encapsulate the disinfected Chinese herbal medicine ingredients in a polymer matrix. These polymer materials are soluble in water, and when placed in water, they degrade to achieve a slow-release effect. However, this slow-release method cannot control the drug release rate, and because Chinese herbal medicines contain a large number of plant components, these components have low solubility in water, which may lead to precipitation during storage and uneven distribution of the components, thus affecting the utilization of the Chinese herbal medicines. Utility Model Content

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical components are indicated by the same reference numerals.

[0027] It should be noted that the terms “front,” “back,” “left,” “right,” “up,” and “down” used in the following description refer to the directions shown in the attached diagram, while the terms “inside” and “outside” refer to the directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0028] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Combined with appendix Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, a slow-release device for disinfection of traditional Chinese medicine in aquaculture includes a float plate 1, a slow-release cylinder 2 at the center of the float plate 1, a bottom plate 3 at the bottom of the slow-release cylinder 2, and a plurality of slow-release holes 4 arranged in a circular array on the bottom plate 3. The number of slow-release holes 4 is four. An equipment chamber 5 is provided inside the float plate 1. A speed regulating component for controlling the flow rate of the medicine liquid is rotatably provided at the bottom of the slow-release cylinder 2. The speed regulating component includes a turntable 6 rotatably provided below the slow-release holes 4. The turntable 6 is provided with slow-release holes 7 of the same size as the slow-release holes 4. A worm gear 8 is rotatably provided inside the equipment chamber 5. A fixed plate is symmetrically arranged inside the equipment chamber 5. The worm gear 8 is rotatably provided between the fixed plates. A motor 13 is provided on the fixed plate and connected to the worm gear 8. A plurality of toothed blocks 9 are provided on the edge of the turntable 6 to cooperate with the worm gear 8. The toothed blocks 9 and the turntable 6 are combined to form a worm gear structure, which meshes with the worm gear 8 to drive the turntable 6 to rotate.

[0031] Combined with appendix Figure 3 As shown, a stirring paddle 10 is rotatably installed inside the slow-release cylinder 2. A second motor 14 is installed on the upper surface of the slow-release cylinder 2 and connected to the rotating shaft of the stirring paddle 10. A power supply box 11 is installed on the float plate 1. A battery pack 12 is installed inside the power supply box 11. A solar panel 21 is installed on the power supply box 11. The solar panel 21 is electrically connected to the battery pack 12 through a solar controller. The first motor 13 and the second motor 14 are electrically connected to the battery pack 12 through an inverter. The inverter can convert the DC power in the battery pack 12 into AC power required by the first motor 13 and the second motor 14.

[0032] With the above structure, the float 1 is placed in the aquaculture water area, and the motor 2 14 drives the stirring paddle 10 to rotate, so that the Chinese medicine liquid in the slow-release cylinder 2 is in a flowing state, so that the effective ingredients in the liquid are mixed evenly and the precipitation is avoided. The motor 13 drives the worm 8 to rotate, and the worm 8 meshes with the tooth block 9, thereby driving the rotation of the turntable 6. During the rotation, the relative position of the slow-release hole 1 4 and the slow-release hole 2 7 will change. When they overlap, the outlet opening is the largest, the liquid flow is the largest, and the slow release speed is the fastest. As the turntable 6 rotates, the outlet opening decreases and the flow decreases accordingly. When the slow-release hole 1 4 and the slow-release hole 2 7 are completely misaligned, the liquid stops being discharged. The solar panel 21 can convert solar energy into electrical energy and store it in the battery pack 12. The battery provides power to the motor 1 13 and the motor 2 14 through the action of the inverter.

[0033] Combined with appendix Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom wall of the slow-release cylinder 2 is provided with a rotating groove 15, and the turntable 6 is provided with a limiting ring 16 that is adapted to the rotating groove 15. The limiting ring 16 is inserted into the rotating groove 15, and the limiting ring 16 cooperates with the rotating groove 15 to ensure the smooth rotation of the turntable 6.

[0034] Combined with appendix Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the turntable 6 is provided with a sealing ring 17, and the bottom surface of the base plate 3 is provided with a sealing groove 18. The sealing ring 17 is snapped into the sealing groove 18 to ensure the sealing between the base plate 3 and the turntable 6, so as to avoid leakage of the medicine.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Based on Example 1, combined with Appendix Figure 6 As shown, a filter screen 19 is bolted to the turntable 6 at the position of the second slow-release hole 7. The filter screen 19 can prevent aquatic plants and fish from entering the slow-release cylinder 2. The filter screen 19 is designed to be detachable, making it easy to remove and clean the aquatic plants and other impurities attached to it, ensuring the drug is dispensed.

[0037] Combined with appendix Figure 2 As shown, the float 1 is surrounded by an air bladder 20. The air bladder 20 is made of water-resistant and pressure-resistant material, which can provide sufficient buoyancy to ensure that the device will not sink or sank due to excessive load. The slow-release cylinder 2 is provided with a transparent window to observe the volume of the medicine liquid inside the slow-release cylinder 2 and replenish it in time.

[0038] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
