Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquatic animal culture technology, specifically to a copepod culture device. Background Technology

[0002] Copepods are important live food in aquaculture, and their large-scale cultivation technology is crucial to the development of the aquaculture industry. However, existing copepod cultivation devices generally suffer from the following technical shortcomings:

[0003] Low filtration efficiency: Traditional devices use fixed filter components and rely on manual filtration of water, which makes it difficult to effectively separate copepods and pollutants (such as ciliates), resulting in a culture environment that is easily contaminated and requires frequent water changes, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0004] The water changing operation is cumbersome: the existing device lacks an automated water changing design. When changing the water, the axle foot must be completely separated from the water body, which can easily cause damage to the axle foot. In addition, the filter plate is difficult to disassemble, has poor sealing performance, and is prone to leakage. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a copepod culture device to improve the success rate of copepod culture.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model provides a radius culture device, including: a culture box body, a track assembly, a filter assembly, and a snap-fit ​​assembly;

[0008] The incubator body is equipped with an inlet pipe and a drain pipe, and the filter assembly is slidably disposed inside the incubator body via the track assembly.

[0009] The track assembly includes a track body and a slider. An installation space for mounting the track body is provided on the side wall of the incubator body. The track body has a first surface facing the filter assembly. When the track body is installed inside the installation space, the first surface and the inner surface of the incubator body are on the same plane. A slide rail is provided inside the track body. The slider is disposed in the slide rail and slidably connected to the track body. The slider has an facing surface facing the filter assembly, and when the slider is disposed inside the slide rail, the facing surface and the first surface are on the same plane. The slider is connected to the filter assembly via a snap-fit ​​assembly.

[0010] In some embodiments, the filtration assembly includes a first filter plate, a filter screen, a second filter plate, and a fastener. The first filter plate and the second filter plate are stacked along the direction from the top to the bottom of the incubator body. The fastener is used to lock the first filter plate and the second filter plate together. The filter screen is disposed between the first filter plate and the second filter plate. The fastener is disposed at the connection between the first filter plate and the second filter plate to lock the first filter plate and the second filter plate together, thereby fixing the filter screen through the first filter plate and the second filter plate.

[0011] In some embodiments, the snap-fit ​​assembly includes a first snap-fit ​​portion disposed on the slider and a second snap-fit ​​portion disposed on the first filter plate, wherein the first snap-fit ​​portion and the second snap-fit ​​portion engage in a snap-fit ​​manner.

[0012] The first locking part includes a locking rod, a toggle plate, and an elastic element. The slider has an opening in a receiving groove facing the orientation surface. The locking rod is disposed in the receiving groove, with one end protruding from the orientation surface and the other end abutting against the elastic element. The slider also has a movable groove, with the opening of the movable groove located on the surface of the slider facing the opening of the incubator body. The movable groove communicates with the receiving groove. The toggle plate is disposed in the movable groove and fixedly connected to the locking rod, with a portion protruding from the movable groove. One end of the elastic element abuts against the locking rod, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the movable groove. It is used to always apply a force to the locking rod in the direction of the orientation surface. When the elastic element is in the state of maximum elastic deformation, the toggle plate abuts against the side wall of the movable groove to limit the maximum displacement distance of the locking rod in the receiving groove. The toggle plate is used to drive the locking rod to reciprocate within the receiving groove.

[0013] The second snap-fit ​​portion includes a locking hole disposed on the first filter plate, the locking hole cooperating with the locking rod to lock the slider and the first filter plate.

[0014] In some embodiments, the elastic element includes a spring.

[0015] In some embodiments, the filtration assembly further includes a seal disposed on the periphery of the second filter plate for sealing the gap between the second filter plate and the inner wall of the incubator body.

[0016] In some embodiments, the fastener includes a slot disposed on a first filter plate and a block disposed on a second filter plate, wherein the block engages with the slot.

[0017] There are multiple card blocks, and each card block is provided with a corresponding card slot.

[0018] In some embodiments, there are four track assemblies, which are respectively disposed at the four corners of the incubator body. Each track assembly is provided with a corresponding snap-fit ​​component, and the sliders in the four track assemblies are respectively disposed at the four corners of the first filter plate.

[0019] In some embodiments, a pull rod is also included. A threaded hole is provided on the first filter plate, and the pull rod is disposed inside the threaded hole and threadedly connected to the first filter plate. One end of the pull rod away from the first filter plate protrudes out of the incubator body.

[0020] In some embodiments, a heating assembly is also included, which is disposed inside the incubator body and located above the filter assembly.

[0021] In some embodiments, the heating assembly includes a heating element that is electrically connected to an external power source.

[0022] Furthermore, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0023] This application utilizes the cooperation between the track assembly and the filter assembly to make the filter assembly slide within the incubator body. This allows the filter assembly to be pulled out with a single button during water changes. In this process, copepods are separated from the water inside the incubator body through the filter assembly. The water inside the incubator body can then be drained through the drain pipe, significantly reducing the number of steps required for water changes and improving water change efficiency.

[0024] Secondly, the first surface of the track body is on the same plane as the inner surface of the incubator body. When the slider is set inside the track body, the facing surface of the slider is on the same plane as the first surface of the track body. This ensures that the first filter plate and the second filter plate can be tightly attached to the inner surface of the incubator body, reducing the existence of gaps and minimizing the occurrence of copepods being accidentally moved to the outside during water changes because they are located under the filter assembly. The filter assembly adopts a multi-layer plate structure, in which the first filter plate, filter screen, and second filter plate are locked together by a snap fastener to ensure that the filter screen is stably clamped. The addition of a sealing element prevents copepods from leaking through the filter screen through the gap between the first filter plate and the incubator body during water changes, thus reducing unnecessary loss of copepods due to water changes and minimizing unnecessary losses.
