Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of eel farming technology, and in particular to a source water filtration and purification device for an eel pond farming system. Background Technology

[0002] Eels, also known as swamp eels, are a type of fish that resembles a long, snake-like shape. They possess the basic characteristics of fish and are rich in nutrients, with tender flesh containing various nutrients. In eel farming, the quality of the source water has a crucial impact on the growth, health, and yield of the eels. Most existing source water filtration and purification devices remove impurities by placing filter media within the water flow channel and utilizing gravity to force the water through the media.

[0003] However, existing purification devices generally have the problem of fixed inlet pipe positions, which results in a very small contact area between the water flow and the filter media. Only a local area of ​​the filter media can be used for filtration. Over time, some areas of the filter media will quickly become clogged, while other areas will not be fully utilized, resulting in a huge waste of filter media. At the same time, it also increases the maintenance cost and frequency of the device, making it difficult to meet the demand of eel farming for a high-quality and stable supply of source water. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a source water filtration and purification device for eel pond aquaculture systems to effectively prevent filter media from clogging.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A source water filtration and purification device for an eel pond breeding system includes a water storage tank and a filter box. A water supply pipe is installed at one end of the middle of the side wall of the water storage tank, and a water pump is installed at the other end of the water supply pipe. A water delivery hose is installed at the output end of the water pump, and the other end of the water delivery hose passes through the upper wall of the filter box and is connected to the inner cavity of the filter box.

[0006] The inner wall of the filter box is equipped with a drive mechanism, which includes a conveyor belt, a fixed ring, and a limiting ring. The conveyor belt is installed on the side wall of the inner cavity of the filter box, and a fixed ring is installed on the outer wall of the conveyor belt. The water supply hose can be inserted into the fixed ring, and a limiting ring is installed at the end of the water supply hose. There are two limiting rings in total, which are respectively set at the upper and lower ends of the fixed ring.

[0007] Both the water pump and the conveyor belt are electrically connected to an external power source.

[0008] In one embodiment, a guide groove is inserted into the side wall of the filter box, and there are at least two guide grooves.

The filter media placement box can be inserted into the filter box through the guide groove, and the filter media placement box is filled with filter media.

[0009] In one embodiment, sealing gaskets are fitted to both the front and rear side walls of the filter media placement box, and the sealing gaskets can fit against the inner wall of the guide groove. A water outlet hole is provided on the lower wall of the filter media placement box.

[0010] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the filter box is provided with a slot, and the end of the filter media placement box can be inserted into the slot to support the filter media placement box.

[0011] In one embodiment, a water collection hopper is provided at the lower end of the inner cavity of the filter box, and a water outlet pipe is inserted and installed in the lower wall of the filter box.

Therefore, the terms describing positional relationships in the accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting this patent. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms according to the specific circumstances.

[0023] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a source water filtration and purification device for an eel pond aquaculture system includes a water storage tank 1 and a filter box 2. One end of a water supply pipe 3 is installed in the middle of the side wall of the water storage tank 1, and a water pump 4 is installed at the other end of the water supply pipe 3. One end of a water delivery hose 5 is installed at the output end of the water pump 4, and the other end of the water delivery hose 5 passes through the upper wall of the filter box 2 and is connected to the inner cavity of the filter box 2.

[0024] A drive mechanism 6 is installed on the inner wall of the filter box 2. The drive mechanism 6 includes a conveyor belt 61, a fixed ring 62 and a limiting ring 63. The conveyor belt 61 is installed on the side wall of the inner cavity of the filter box 2. The fixed ring 62 is installed on the outer wall of the conveyor belt 61. The water supply hose 5 can be inserted into the fixed ring 62. The end of the water supply hose 5 is installed with a limiting ring 63. There are two limiting rings 63. The two limiting rings 63 are respectively set at the upper end and the lower end of the fixed ring 62.

[0025] Both the water pump 4 and the conveyor belt 61 are electrically connected to an external power source.

[0026] In practice, the water storage tank 1 serves as the initial storage area for the source water, which can collect and temporarily store the water required for eel farming. The water supply pipe 3 connects the water storage tank 1 and the water pump 4, forming a channel for the source water transportation. The water pump 4 serves as the power core, which generates suction through electric drive to draw the source water in the water storage tank 1 up through the water supply pipe 3 and pressurize it through the water delivery hose 5 to the filter box 2, providing power support for the subsequent filtration and purification process and ensuring that the source water can continuously and stably enter the filtration stage.

[0027] The design of the drive mechanism 6 can improve the filtration effect and flexibility. The conveyor belt 61 can rotate in a cycle after being powered on. The fixing ring 62 is installed on the conveyor belt 61 to fix the water supply hose 5, so that the water supply hose 5 can move with the conveyor belt 61. When the conveyor belt 61 is running, the outlet position of the water supply hose 5 will change continuously, thereby changing the spraying area of ​​the source water in the filter box 2. This avoids the excessive wear of local filter media caused by prolonged water scouring in a single position, and at the same time, it allows the source water to contact the filter media evenly, improving the filtration efficiency and effect.

[0028] The limiting rings 63 at both the top and bottom end serve a dual protection function, preventing the water conveying hose 5 from falling out of the fixing ring 62 during the operation of the conveyor belt 61, thus ensuring the stability and safety of the water conveying process.

[0029] The lower end of the conveyor belt 61 is provided with a transverse connecting plate. The two ends of the transverse connecting plate are fixed to the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the filter box 2, respectively. At the same time, the lower end of the water supply hose 5 is located above the transverse connecting plate and will not collide with the transverse connecting plate, thus avoiding interference with the movement of the water supply hose 5 caused by the transverse connecting plate.

[0030] In this embodiment of the invention, the conveyor belt 61 in the drive mechanism 6 drives the water hose 5 to move within the filter box 2, changing the inlet position of the source water and enabling the water flow to contact the filter media evenly. Compared with the traditional device with a fixed inlet pipe, this effectively prevents clogging, greatly improves the utilization rate of the filter media, reduces filter media waste, and lowers the operating cost of the device.

[0031] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4As shown, a guide groove 7 is inserted into the side wall of the filter box 2. There are at least two guide grooves 7. A filter media placement box 8 is slidably installed in the guide groove 7. The filter media placement box 8 can be inserted into the filter box 2 through the guide groove 7. The filter media placement box 8 is filled with filter media 9.

[0032] In this embodiment, the guide groove 7 guides and shields the filter media placement box 8. The sliding installation allows workers to quickly and accurately install the filter media placement box 8, filled with filter media 9, into the filter box 2. It also facilitates later disassembly and replacement of the filter media placement box 8. When the upper filter media placement box 8 is in use, the lower filter media placement box 8 is within the guide groove 7, preventing contact with source water and external air, thus avoiding contamination of the internal filter media 9. This modular design makes filter media replacement and maintenance more convenient and efficient. When the adsorption capacity of the filter media decreases after a period of use, simply remove the corresponding filter media placement box 8 and replace it with a new one, eliminating the need for large-scale disassembly of the entire filtration system and reducing maintenance and time costs.

[0033] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, sealing gaskets 10 are fitted to both the front and rear side walls of the filter media placement box 8. The sealing gaskets 10 can fit against the inner wall of the guide groove 7, and a water outlet hole 11 is provided on the lower wall of the filter media placement box 8. In this embodiment, the sealing gaskets 10 effectively prevent the source water from leaking from the gap between the filter media placement box 8 and the guide groove 7, ensuring that the source water can only be filtered through the filter media 9 inside the filter media placement box 8 before flowing out through the water outlet hole 11 on the lower wall. This ensures the standardization and effectiveness of the filtration process and avoids unfiltered source water flowing out directly, which would affect the filtration effect.

[0034] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a slot 12 is provided on the inner side wall of the filter box 2. The end of the filter media placement box 8 can be inserted into the slot 12, which supports the filter media placement box 8. In this embodiment, the slot 12 and the end of the filter media placement box 8 cooperate with each other to provide a stable support structure for the filter media placement box 8. When the filter media placement box 8 is inserted into the filter box 2, its end is inserted into the slot 12, which can effectively prevent the filter media placement box 8 from shaking or shifting in the filter box 2. Especially when the source water flows in and causes water flow impact, it ensures that the filter media placement box 8 is always in a stable state, ensuring the normal operation of the filtration work.

[0035] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4As shown, a water collection hopper 13 is provided at the lower end of the inner cavity of the filter box 2, and a water outlet pipe 14 is inserted and installed on the lower wall of the filter box 2. The upper end of the water outlet pipe 14 is connected to the inner cavity of the collection hopper 13, and the lower end of the water outlet pipe 14 is connected to the external eel farming tank. In this embodiment, the water collection hopper 13 has a funnel-shaped structure, which can effectively collect the water flowing out from the water outlet hole 11 on the lower wall of the filter media placement box 8 after filtration by the filter media, so that the water flow is concentrated in the direction of the water outlet pipe 14, avoiding the filtered water from being dispersed at the bottom of the filter box 2 and improving the water output efficiency; the water outlet pipe 14 serves as a channel connecting the filter box 2 and the external eel farming tank, transporting the purified source water to the eel farming tank, providing a clean and safe water source for eel farming.

[0036] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a through groove 15 is provided on the side wall of the filter box 2, and a transparent observation window 16 is hinged to the side wall of the filter box 2. A sealing gasket 17 is installed on the side wall of the transparent observation window 16, and the sealing gasket 17 can be inserted into the through groove 15. In this embodiment, the through groove 15 and the sealing gasket 17 cooperate with each other. When the transparent observation window 16 is closed, the sealing gasket 17 is inserted into the through groove 15, which can effectively ensure the airtightness of the filter box 2 and prevent the source water from leaking from the observation window. The setting of the transparent observation window 16 allows the staff to observe the use of filter media, water flow status and whether there are any blockages inside the filter box 2 at any time without opening the filter box 2, so as to take corresponding measures in time and realize real-time monitoring and management of the filtration process.

[0037] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the body of the filter box 2 is made of stainless steel. In this embodiment, the stainless steel body of the filter box 2 is characterized by high strength, stable structure, and long service life.

[0038] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to filter and purify the source water for eel farming, the external power supply is first turned on, and the water pump 4 starts working, drawing the source water from the storage tank 1 through the water supply pipe 3 and transporting it to the filter box 2 through the water delivery hose 5. Since the water delivery hose 5 is fixed to the conveyor belt 61 by the fixing ring 62, the conveyor belt 61 drives the water delivery hose 5 to move in a cycle after being powered on, so that the source water is sprayed in different areas of the filter box 2. After the source water enters the filter box 2, under the action of the filter media 9 in the filter media placement box 8, impurities, suspended solids and some harmful substances in the source water are intercepted and adsorbed, achieving the desired purification effect. After initial purification, the filtered water flows out through the outlet hole 11 on the lower wall of the filter media placement box 8 and collects in the water collection hopper 13 at the lower end of the inner cavity of the filter box 2. Finally, it is transported to the external eel farming tank through the outlet pipe 14 to provide purified water for eel farming. Throughout the filtration process, the staff can observe the internal condition of the filter box 2 at any time through the transparent observation window 16. When it is found that the adsorption capacity of the filter media has decreased, the unused filter media placement box 8 can be inserted into the filter box 2 first, and then the used filter media placement box 8 can be pulled out to quickly complete the replacement, so as to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the filtration and purification device.

[0039] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
