[0028] The technical solution of this utility model and how it solves the above-mentioned technical problems will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of this utility model will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the aeration device for aquaculture ponds provided by this utility model includes a main control module, a wireless communication module, multiple sensor modules, and multiple aeration modules. The aeration modules are arranged in a star-shaped topology with multiple points according to the shape of the pond. The sensor modules are electrically connected to the main control module and are used to acquire water body data of the aquaculture pond and send the water body data to the main control module. The wireless communication module is used for data transmission between the main control module and the aeration modules. The main control module is connected to the aeration modules through the wireless communication module and is used to analyze the water body data acquired by the sensor modules and control the opening or closing of the aeration modules according to the analysis results.

[0031] Optionally, the sensor module includes a temperature sensor, a pH sensor, and a dissolved oxygen sensor. The temperature sensor is used to acquire water temperature data; the pH sensor is used to acquire the pH value of the water; and the dissolved oxygen sensor is used to acquire the dissolved oxygen content of the water.

[0032] Optionally, the main control module is wirelessly connected to the cloud management platform via a wireless communication module, and the cloud management platform sends water data to the mobile terminal; the mobile terminal is wirelessly connected to the cloud management platform via a wireless communication module to obtain the aquaculture pond water data sent by the cloud management platform, and remotely controls the main control module to perform oxygenation via the wireless communication module.

[0033] The mobile terminal is the user's mobile phone, and the user can send water quality query commands to the cloud management platform through a mobile APP or WeChat mini program.

[0034] For example, the Mega2560 microcontroller has 54 digital interface ports, including 14 for PWM output, 16 for analog input, and 4 for UART serial ports, enabling connection to various sensors and peripherals. Therefore, the Mega2560 microcontroller can be used as the main control chip for the main control module, allowing for the analysis and processing of water data acquired by sensors. The ESP8266 has a built-in Wi-Fi module supporting wireless communication; therefore, the ESP8266-NodeMCU development board can be used as the wireless communication module to achieve stable data transmission between the host and slave devices and other peripherals, suitable for remote control and data monitoring needs in IoT applications. Secondly, the ESP8266 is designed as a low-power device, suitable for systems requiring long-term operation and relying on solar power, improving energy efficiency and ensuring continuous operation in various environments. Finally, the FZN-3001-02 fluorescence dissolved oxygen sensor can be used to collect dissolved oxygen levels in ponds.

[0035] Optionally, multiple sensor modules integrated on the main control module can be connected to the main control module via BNC connectors.

[0036] For example, a CMOS camera can be electrically connected to the main control module to detect water visibility.

[0037] For example, in this embodiment, a microporous aerator is selected as the aeration module. The microporous aerator is driven by a small-power pump, and the aeration holes are set at the bottom of the water. It can degrade the thickening of silt, excess feed, drug residues and other problems caused by the aquaculture process itself, effectively reducing the pollution to the water body.

[0038] For example, sensors collect real-time data on dissolved oxygen, water temperature, and pH levels in the water body, and output the acquired data to a Mega2560 microcontroller. The Mega2560 microcontroller then sends the collected data to an ESP8266 development board via serial communication. The ESP8266 development board then sends the data to a mobile app or WeChat mini-program via a cloud server, such as Alibaba Cloud. Users can view real-time data on their mobile phones. The main control module then analyzes the collected water data to determine whether oxygenation is necessary and executes accordingly. When abnormal data is detected, a real-time alarm can be triggered via the WeChat mini-program to remind the user to take appropriate measures. Finally, the detected data and execution results are stored on a cloud management platform so that users can view historical data at any time.

[0039] For example, users can monitor the aquatic environment in real time via their mobile phones. The main control module sends environmental data detected by the sensors, such as oxygen content, pH value, and water temperature information, to the cloud via the Internet. Then, users can remotely monitor changes in the aquatic environment in real time via a mobile app. At the same time, the app can also provide alarm reminders. Users do not need to download anything, and the system is safe, stable, and convenient for users to monitor the pond water conditions anytime on their mobile devices.

[0040] By comparing the oxygenation device of this invention with existing impeller-type and waterwheel-type aerators, the oxygenation capacity of various aerators at different water injection depths is as follows: Figure 2 As shown; the power efficiency of the aeration device of this utility model is compared with that of existing impeller aerators and waterwheel aerators at different water injection depths. Figure 3 As shown in the figure; by comparison, it can be seen that this utility model can effectively reduce energy waste while precisely increasing oxygen.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] The aeration device for aquaculture ponds provided by this utility model also includes a display module and a solar power supply module; wherein, the display module is integrated on the main control module and is used to display water data in real time; the solar power supply module is electrically connected to the main control module and includes a monocrystalline silicon solar panel and a gel battery, and is used to supply power to the main control module.

[0043] For example, OLED screens are self-emissive and do not require a backlight, providing high contrast and clear display effects under any lighting conditions. At the same time, OLED screens have a wide viewing angle and fast response speed, enabling them to quickly update the displayed content and ensure that users can obtain the latest water quality information in a timely manner. In addition, OLED screens have low power consumption, which can extend the system's battery life. Therefore, the display module can select an OLED display for real-time data display.

[0044] like Figure 4As shown, the solar power module uses monocrystalline silicon solar panels to collect solar energy and charge the gel battery; in addition, the battery can power the aeration device in the aquaculture pond.

[0045] Example 3

[0046] This utility model provides an aeration system for aquaculture ponds, including an aeration device for aquaculture ponds, a cloud management platform, and a mobile terminal.

[0047] For example, the aeration device for aquaculture ponds is connected to the cloud management platform via wireless communication for data interaction. The cloud management platform sends water data to the mobile terminal and receives signals from the mobile terminal sent by the cloud management platform, thus achieving stable data transmission.

[0048] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this utility model.
