Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet breeding tank technology, specifically to an improved pet breeding tank. Background Technology
[0002] With the diversification of pet care needs, the function of traditional pet tanks (such as reptile terrariums and aquariums) is gradually evolving from basic survival environment maintenance to intelligent design.
[0003] For example, patent announcement number CN220831495U discloses a smart base for pet tanks, which specifically discloses that the base body includes at least three side plates connected end to end in sequence; a control unit and a power socket electrically connected to the control unit are provided on the side plates, and the control unit can control the power output of the power socket; the upper and lower ends of the base body can be used to connect the tank body respectively; the interior of the side plates is hollow; the side plates are connected to each other to form a channel with a wire accommodating wire, and the wire can be connected to the control unit and the power socket through the channel; a connector for connecting two adjacent side plates is provided between two adjacent side plates, and the interior of the connector is also hollow; the left and right ends of the connector have outwardly extending connecting parts, and the two connecting parts can be inserted into the two adjacent side plates respectively; the connector also has a locking part for locking the tank body; one end of the locking part has a step, and the corresponding other end has a protrusion; the step and the protrusion can be used to fix the tank body respectively.
[0004] However, the aforementioned pet tank still has room for improvement. For example, the control unit and power socket are located on different side panels, and the control unit and power socket are electrically connected by wires. This wiring method is not simple enough, as the wires need to pass through the interior of multiple side panels to achieve the connection, which means that each side panel needs to be hollow. In addition, the control unit and power socket located on different side panels are not integrated together. This scattered arrangement requires users to operate the control unit and plug and unplug devices from different locations, increasing the complexity of use. Finally, adjacent side panels are fixed together by connectors, but the connectors rely on physical plugging with the inner wall of the side panel without sealing structures such as sealing rings or waterproof coatings. This allows water to seep into the internal wiring channels from the side panel joints, causing problems such as short circuits.
[0005] Therefore, further improvements to existing technologies are needed. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an improved pet tank. By providing a display box on the base and integrating a power supply control module on the display box, power management, system control, and monitoring are integrated into a single module, improving the ease of operation.

[0028] The utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following description is merely exemplary and does not limit the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0029] like Figures 1-4As shown, an improved pet tank includes a tank body 1 and a base 2 arranged vertically. After the tank body 1 and the base 2 are connected, an activity space for pets is formed inside. In this embodiment, the tank is an aquarium, and the activity space for pets will be filled with water when in use.
[0030] like Figures 1-4 As shown, at least one display box 3 is embedded in the frame of the base 2. The display box 3 includes a panel 32 and a back shell 31, with the back shell 31 extending into the interior of the tank. The panel 32 is equipped with a display screen 4, buttons 5, a power input socket 6, a temperature and humidity sensor socket 7, and at least one power outlet 8. These components are electrically connected to each other inside the display box 3. The power outlet 8 can be electrically connected to electrical appliances installed inside the tank 1. Specifically, there are two power outlets 8, which can be electrically connected to ultraviolet lamps or heat lamps installed inside the tank 1, respectively. However, to expand the functionality of the breeding tank, the number of power outlets 8 is not limited to two and can be adjusted according to expansion needs. In this embodiment, the display screen 4 is used to display collected information, the buttons 5 are used to control electrical appliances installed inside the tank 1, the power input socket 6 is used to connect to an external power source, the temperature and humidity sensor socket 7 is connected to a temperature and humidity sensor 10, and the two power outlets 8 are used to connect electrical appliances. By integrating the display screen 4, buttons 5, power input port 6, temperature and humidity sensor port 7, and power socket 8 into a single module, the user's operation is simplified, and the ease of operation is effectively improved.
[0031] Such as 2 and Figure 4 As shown, there are two display boxes 3. Each display box 3 has a wire-passing hole 33 at its bottom, with an opening facing the other display box 3. A wire-passing edge strip 8 is provided at the bottom of the base 2 to connect the two wire-passing holes 33. In this embodiment, the wires in one display box 3 can pass through the wire-passing hole 33 and run along the wire-passing edge strip 8 to the other display box 3, thereby realizing the interconnection between the two display boxes 3. Through the above arrangement, after one of the display boxes 3 is connected to an external power source, both display boxes 3 can realize the monitoring and control of the internal environment of the cylinder 1. In addition, this wiring method can hide the wires in the wire-passing edge strip 8, avoiding the wires from being exposed, thus making the wiring layout more aesthetically pleasing. At the same time, the seamless connection between the wire-passing edge strip 8 and the wire-passing hole 33 can also prevent water leakage at the joint.
[0032] like Figure 2As shown, two display boxes 3 are respectively located at the front and left sides of the base 2, and at the angle between the front and right sides of the base 2. Mounting slots for the display boxes 3 are provided on the front, left, and right sides of the base 2. In this embodiment, the display box 3 is L-shaped, with both ends extending towards the front and left or right sides of the base 2, respectively. This L-shaped design allows the display box 3 to conform to the corner shape of the base 2, maximizing the use of the space in the rearing tank. Furthermore, positioning the display box 3 at the angle of the base 2 enhances the support of the base 2 for the tank body 1.
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, mounting slots 9 for mounting the display box 3 are provided on the edge of the base 2. Specifically, the mounting slots 9 are respectively located at the junction of the front edge and the left and right edges of the base 2. To accommodate the mounting slots 9, the display box 3 in this embodiment is "L"-shaped, with both ends extending towards the front edge and the left or right edge of the base 2, respectively. Through the above design, the "L"-shaped display box 3 can fit the corner shape of the base 2, maximizing the use of the space in the breeding tank.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, a cover plate 320 is provided on one side end face of the panel 32. Specifically, the cover plate 320 is fixed to the panel 32 with screws. In this embodiment, the power input port 6, the temperature and humidity sensor port 7, and the power socket 8 are respectively provided on the cover plate 320. Through the above-mentioned arrangement, the cover plate 320 can be easily disassembled and installed to facilitate the inspection and maintenance of the internal circuitry of the display box 3.
[0035] like Figures 1-4 As shown above, this utility model simplifies user operation and effectively improves the convenience of operation by integrating a display screen 4, buttons 5, a power input port 6, a temperature and humidity sensor port 7, and a power socket 8 on the display box 3.
[0036] By embedding a display box 3 on the frame of the base 2, the wires and electronic components inside the display box 3 can be isolated from water and electricity after the rear shell 31 of the display box 3 extends into the interior of the cylinder 1. The rear shell 31 can effectively prevent the intrusion of water vapor or water flow to ensure the safety of the electronic components installed inside.
[0037] Each display box 3 has a cable routing hole 33 at its bottom, with the opening facing the other display box 3. The base 2 has a cable routing strip 8 at its bottom that connects the two cable routing holes 33. This allows the cables inside one display box 3 to be routed through the inside of the cable routing strip 8 to the other display box 3, thus achieving communication between the two display boxes 3. This cable routing method can hide the cables inside the cable routing strip 8, preventing the cables from being exposed, resulting in a more reasonable and aesthetically pleasing cable routing layout. At the same time, the seamless connection between the cable routing strip 8 and the cable routing hole 33 can also prevent water seepage at the joints.
[0038] This utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. If any modifications or variations to this utility model do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model, and if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims and equivalent technologies of this utility model, then this utility model also intends to include such modifications and variations.
