Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquarium filtration, specifically a high-efficiency aquarium filter. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, fishkeeping is becoming a popular hobby, attracting more and more households. Against this backdrop, turnover box filters, with their excellent filtration performance, have stood out among various fishkeeping filtration options, becoming the first choice for many fishkeepers. Turnover box filters not only possess highly efficient filtration capabilities, effectively removing impurities and harmful substances from the water, but are also favored for their simple structure and ease of cleaning and maintenance.

[0003] However, existing portable filter boxes on the market have revealed numerous drawbacks during use. Excessive noise is a common problem, affecting not only the tranquility of the home environment but also causing considerable inconvenience for fish keepers. Furthermore, replacing the filter media is cumbersome and inconvenient, increasing maintenance difficulty and time costs. More seriously, portable filter boxes are prone to overflow, which, if not handled properly, can damage the aquarium and its surrounding environment. In addition, the excessive number of pipes inside the aquarium is a major pain point, affecting aesthetics and potentially increasing the risk of malfunction due to the complexity of the piping. Therefore, developing a safe, efficient, and easy-to-use filter is particularly urgent. Such a filter would not only enhance the fishkeeping experience but also create a more stable and healthy living environment for the fish, satisfying fish keepers' pursuit of a high-quality fishkeeping lifestyle.

[0016] To more clearly illustrate the overall concept of this utility model, a detailed description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-efficiency filter for aquariums, including a lower filter box 1, a middle filter box 2 placed at the top of the lower filter box 1, an upper filter box 3 placed at the top of the middle filter box 2, and the upper filter box 3 having a pull-out drawer structure.

[0018] This aquarium filter utilizes a drawer-style structure, making it more convenient to replace the internal filter cotton. The lower filter box 1 of this filter has an innovative anti-overflow pipe 111, which can reduce overflow caused by excessive water. The design of the check valve connecting pipe 18 bend can ensure that a certain amount of water remains in the water pipe after the pump stops, avoiding the pump body from burning dry when it is started again.

[0019] This filter has the following advantages: 1. A baffle plate is added to the outlet, greatly reducing water flow noise and diverting the water flow so that it can flow evenly onto the filter cotton, improving physical interception efficiency; 2. The physical filter layer of a typical turnover box filter is located relatively high, making it inconvenient to change the filter cotton. This design adds a drawer, making filter cotton changing more convenient without having to climb up and down, making it safer and easier to use; 3. To address the issue of overflow in turnover box filters, this new and practical design incorporates an anti-overflow design, making it safer to use; 4. The uniquely designed built-in check valve piping greatly reduces the number of internal pipes, making the aquarium look cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing; 5. The unique inlet and outlet design adapts to various water levels in the aquarium, optimizes the water circulation route, and improves the filtration effect;

[0020] The lower filter box 1 includes a lower box body 11. The lower box body 11 has openings on both sides. A main water inlet pipe 12 is rotatably connected to the openings. Water inlet pipes 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of both sides of the main water inlet pipe 12. A rotary valve 14 is installed on the surface of each water inlet pipe 13. A water pump 15 is placed inside the lower box body 11. A main water outlet pipe 16 is fixedly connected to the outlet of the water pump 15. A water outlet pipe 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the main water outlet pipe 16. A check valve connecting pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the inlet of the water pump 15. One end of the check valve connecting pipe 18 is connected to one end of the check valve. The other end of the check valve is connected to a water suction pipe 19. An oil removal film pipe 110 is connected to the middle section of the water suction pipe 19. An opening is opened at the front end of the lower box body 11. An overflow prevention pipe 111 is fixedly connected to the opening.

[0021] The upper filter box 3 includes an upper box body 31. The upper box body 31 has an opening at the front end. Two sets of drawers 32 are slidably connected in the opening. A second drain plate 34 is placed inside the drawers 32. A first drain plate 33 is placed inside the upper box body 31. A top cover 35 is placed on the top of the upper box body 31.

[0022] The bottom of the upper filter box 3 is provided with a first fixing hole, the bottom of the middle filter box 2 is provided with a second fixing hole, the main water outlet pipe 16 passes through the first fixing hole, the second fixing hole, the second drain plate 34 and the first drain plate 33 respectively, and the water outlet pipe 17 fixed at the top of the main water outlet pipe 16 is located above the first drain plate 33.

[0023] In use, the water pump 15 is driven by municipal power supply, drawing water from the aquarium through the suction pipe 19 into the check valve and check valve connecting pipe 18. The oil film removal pipe 110 can suck in the oil film and floating matter on the surface of the aquarium water, and then pump it upwards through the pump body into the main outlet pipe 16, and then through the outlet pipe 17 to the surface of the first drain plate 33. The surface of the first drain plate 33 has multiple sets of openings to divert the water flow and reduce the noise when the water flows down. The water falls into the drawer 32 through the openings. The drawer 32 contains filter cotton for preliminary filtration of the water. After being filtered by the filter cotton, the water flows downwards through the openings on the surface of the second drain plate 34 to the middle filter box 2. Various filter media can be placed inside the middle filter box 2 as needed. The filtered water flows downwards through the openings on the surface of the middle filter box 2 into the lower filter box 1. The water enters the inlet branch pipe 13 through the inlet main pipe 12. The outlet main pipe 16 can be rotated horizontally to adjust the height of the inlet branch pipe 13 before flowing downwards into the fish tank, completing the entire filtration process. The speed and flow rate of the water can be controlled by turning the rotary valve 14. When there is too much water, when the water level reaches the height of the overflow pipe 111, the water will re-enter the fish tank through the overflow pipe 111 to prevent water from overflowing. When the water pump 15 is turned off, the water in the outlet main pipe 16 flows back under gravity, and the bent check valve connecting pipe 18 can prevent the water from continuously flowing back into the fish tank, thereby preventing the water pump 15 from dry burning when it is restarted.
