Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an aquarium filter, and more specifically, it relates to a built-in filter with an automatic sewage discharge function. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, ornamental fish are becoming increasingly popular in homes. However, aquarium water quality management has become a major challenge for fish enthusiasts. While traditional aquarium filters can purify water to some extent, they are often inefficient at handling waste, requiring regular manual cleaning, which is not only cumbersome but can also disrupt the aquarium's ecosystem. Therefore, it is necessary to research aquarium water filters, especially those with automatic waste removal functions. Utility Model Content

[0003] One of the objectives of this invention is to address the aforementioned shortcomings by providing a built-in filter with an automatic sewage discharge function, thereby resolving the technical problems of existing aquarium filters having a simple structure and being insufficiently effective in treating fish waste in the aquarium.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model provides a built-in filter with automatic sewage discharge function, including a water inlet chamber, the outlet of which is connected to a water pump, a filter box installed at the water inlet of the water inlet chamber, filter media installed inside the filter box, the filter media being placed between the water inlet and outlet of the filter box; the filter box also has a waste inlet channel, which is connected to the waste suction port of the waste box, the waste box has a water suction port, which is connected to the water inlet of the filter box; the water inlet chamber has a reversing valve, which is used to switch the connection between the water inlet of the water inlet chamber and the water outlet and waste inlet channel of the filter box.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, a further technical solution is: there are multiple filter boxes, which are arranged in a row, and the outlets of two adjacent filter boxes are connected to the inlet of another filter box; the inlet channels of the multiple filter boxes are interconnected.

[0007] A further technical solution is that the outlet end of the water pump is connected to the inlet pipe or the sewage pipe through a pipeline.

[0008] A further technical solution is that the feces box has a filter grid, the water inlet is placed below the filter grid, and the feces inlet is placed above the filter grid.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, one of the beneficial effects of this utility model is that by setting a reversing valve on the water inlet chamber, the water inlet of the water pump can be connected to the water outlet and the waste inlet of the filter box through the water inlet chamber, thereby realizing water filtration and automatic sewage discharge respectively. At the same time, the built-in filter with automatic sewage discharge function provided by this utility model has a simple structure, can be used in aquariums of various sizes, and has a wide range of applications.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0015] refer to Figure 1-3As shown, one embodiment of this utility model is a built-in filter with automatic sewage discharge function, including a water inlet chamber 1. The water outlet of the water inlet chamber 1 is connected to a water pump 2. A filter box 3 is installed at the water inlet of the water inlet chamber 1, and filter media 4 is installed inside the filter box 3. The filter media 4 can be made of conventional water filtration materials, and the material of the filter media 4 will not be described in detail here. The aforementioned filter media 4 is placed between the water inlet 31 and the water outlet 32 ​​of the filter box 3, that is, a water flow channel is formed between the water inlet 31 and the water outlet 32 ​​in the filter box 3. When the water drawn in by the water pump passes through the water flow channel, it needs to pass through the filter media 4, thereby achieving filtration. More importantly, the aforementioned filter box 3 is also provided with a waste inlet channel 33, which runs parallel to the aforementioned water flow channel and the two do not interfere with each other. The aforementioned waste inlet channel 33 is connected to the suction port 51 of the feces box 5. A water inlet 52 is provided on the feces box 5, which is connected to the water inlet 31 of the filter box 3, that is, the water inlet 52 is connected to the aforementioned water flow channel. A simple reversing valve 6 needs to be installed in the water inlet chamber 1. The function of the reversing valve 6 is to switch the connection between the water inlet of the water inlet chamber 1 and the water outlet 32 ​​and the feces inlet channel 33 of the filter box 3. Since the structure of the reversing valve on the market is relatively mature, its structure will not be described in detail here, and the purpose of this utility model is not to do so. Preferably, for the convenience of separation in the book, the feces box 5 can also have a filter grid 53, with the water inlet 52 placed below the filter grid 53 and the feces inlet 51 placed above the filter grid 53.

[0016] Furthermore, to improve the filtration performance of the filter, a multi-stage filtration method can be used. Multiple filter boxes 3 are arranged in a row, with the outlets 32 of two adjacent filter boxes 3 connected to the inlet 31 of another filter box 3. The inlet channels 33 of the multiple filter boxes 3 are interconnected, allowing water drawn in by the pump 2 to pass sequentially through the filter media 4 inside each filter box 3. Fish waste and other debris drawn in pass sequentially through the inlet channel 33 of each filter box 3 and are finally discharged through the drain pipe. Therefore, the outlet of the pump 2 is connected to either the inlet pipe or the drain pipe via a pipeline.

[0017] In this embodiment, by setting a reversing valve 6 on the water inlet chamber 1, the water inlet of the water pump 2 can be connected to the water outlet 32 ​​and the sewage inlet channel 33 of the filter box 3 through the water inlet chamber 1, thereby realizing water filtration and automatic sewage discharge respectively.

[0018] Specifically, refer to Figure 1-3In a preferred embodiment of this invention, during normal filtration, the reversing valve 6 is adjusted to connect the outlet of the filter box 3 with the inlet of the inlet chamber 1. Under the action of the water pump 2, water from the aquarium is drawn in through the feces box 5. During this process, water and feces from the aquarium are also drawn in. Under the action of the filter grid, larger pieces of feces remain on the filter grid, while smaller pieces pass through the suction port 52 and are filtered through the filter media via the inlet channel. The filtered water then flows back into the aquarium through the inlet pipe, forming a circulating filtration system. When waste needs to be discharged, the reversing valve 6 is adjusted to connect the waste inlet channel 33 of the filter box 3 with the inlet of the inlet chamber 1. Waste enters the waste inlet channel 33 of the filter box 3 through the suction port 51 on the feces box 5, and is then discharged to the outside of the aquarium by the water pump 2 through the drain pipe.

[0019] In addition to the above, it should be noted that the terms "one embodiment," "another embodiment," and "embodiment" used in this specification refer to specific features, structures, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment, which are included in at least one embodiment described in the general description of this application.

Furthermore, when a specific feature, structure, or characteristic is described in connection with any embodiment, the intention is to suggest that implementing such a feature, structure, or characteristic in conjunction with other embodiments also falls within the scope of this utility model.
