[0002] Seahorses, as precious marine organisms, have extremely high medicinal and economic value. In recent years, with the rapid development of seahorse farming, how to improve the survival rate and quality of seahorses has become the focus of industry attention. Probiotics, as a safe and efficient biological agent, play an important role in seahorse farming, improving water quality, enhancing seahorse immunity, and promoting growth.

[0003] Traditional static culture methods suffer from low oxygen and nutrient transfer efficiency and slow probiotic growth, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale aquaculture. Traditional culture methods rely heavily on manual operation, making it difficult to achieve automated control, resulting in low efficiency and operational errors. Existing fluidized bed equipment has a complex structure, making it difficult to install stably in seahorse breeding ponds, thus limiting its application in actual aquaculture. Utility Model Content

[0027] Please see Figures 1-5A fluidized bed for cultivating probiotics in seahorses includes a fluidized bed body 1, which includes a culture tank 2. The culture tank 2 has an internal vent pipe 3, an air inlet pipe 4 on one side of the vent pipe 3, an air stone 5 inside the vent pipe 3, and a connecting pipe 6 connected to one side of the vent pipe 3. The culture tank 2 contains multiple packing materials 7. A mounting frame 8 is mounted on the culture tank 2, with symmetrically arranged mounting sleeves 9 on the mounting frame 8. One end of each mounting sleeve 9 has a mounting suction cup 10, and a piston rod 11 slides on the mounting sleeve 9. One end of the piston rod 11 has a piston plate 12. A mounting spring 13 is provided between the stopper plate 12 and the mounting sleeve 9. A first handle 14 is provided at one end of the piston rod 11. A top cover 22 is provided at the top of the culture tank 2. An exhaust hole 23 is provided on the top cover 22. The top cover 22 is threadedly connected to the culture tank 2. A base 24 is provided at the bottom of the culture tank 2. The base 24 is threadedly connected to the culture tank 2. A water passage hole 25 is provided on the base 24. A filter cotton 26 is provided on the base 24. An internally threaded sleeve 27 is rotatably provided on the connecting pipe 6. An externally threaded sleeve 28 is provided on the air inlet pipe 4. A sealing gasket 29 is provided inside the internally threaded sleeve 27.

[0028] In this embodiment, probiotics are pre-inoculated on the surface of the filler 7. The probiotic carrier filler 7 is then filled into the culture tank 2. The base 24 is installed at the bottom of the culture tank 2 via threads, and the top cover 22 is installed at the top of the culture tank 2. Water inlet 25 and filter cotton 26 are provided to facilitate water entry and prevent impurities such as fish feces from entering the culture tank 2. The connecting pipe 6 and the air inlet pipe 4 are connected by an internal threaded sleeve 27 and an external threaded sleeve 28, which improves the connection stability between the connecting pipe 6 and the air inlet pipe 4. The sealing gasket 29 is provided to improve the connection sealing and prevent air leakage. The air inlet pipe 4 and the air vent pipe 3 are vented by an air pump. The gas is dispersed by the air stone 5, and the filler 7 particles begin to suspend and flow, forming a fluidized state. In the fluidized state, probiotics attach to the surface of the filler 7 and grow and reproduce. Nutrients and oxygen in the fluid are absorbed and utilized by the probiotics through efficient mass transfer for cultivation. After cultivation, the contents are collected by liquid discharge or carrier separation for seahorse farming.

[0029] Please see Figures 4-5 As one embodiment of the suction cup 10: the first handle 14 is provided with an adjustment groove 15, the piston rod 11 and the piston plate 12 are provided with a connecting groove 16, the connecting groove 16 is connected to the adjustment groove 15, the adjustment groove 15 is provided with a plurality of adjustment holes 17, the first handle 14 is slidably provided with an adjustment rod 18, one end of the adjustment rod 18 is provided with an adjustment plate 19, the other end is provided with a second handle 20, and an adjustment spring 21 is provided between the adjustment plates 19.

[0030] More specifically, when installing the fluidized bed body 1, pressing the first handle 14 causes the piston rod 11 and piston plate 12 to move towards the installation suction cup 10. The piston plate 12 stretches the installation spring 13, causing the installation suction cup 10 to adhere to the side wall of the aquaculture pond. Then, releasing the first handle 14 causes the piston plate 12 to move away from the installation suction cup 10 under the elastic force of the installation spring 13, thus ensuring that the installation suction cup 10 is continuously and stably in a vacuum state, improving installation stability. When disassembling the fluidized bed body 1, pulling the second handle 20 causes the adjusting rod 18 and adjusting plate 19 to move outward. The adjusting plate 19 compresses the adjusting spring 21. After the adjusting plate 19 moves, it releases the adjusting hole 17, allowing water to flow through the adjusting hole 17 into the adjusting groove 15 and the connecting groove 16, and into the installation suction cup 10, facilitating the disassembly of the installation suction cup 10 and the fluidized bed body 1.

[0031] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment: probiotics are pre-inoculated on the surface of the packing material 7. The probiotic carrier packing material 7 is then filled into the culture tank 2. The base 24 is installed at the bottom of the culture tank 2 via threads, and the top cover 22 is installed at the top of the culture tank 2. Water inlets 25 and filter cotton 26 are provided to facilitate water entry and prevent impurities such as fish feces from entering the culture tank 2. The connecting pipe 6 and the air inlet pipe 4 are connected by an internal threaded sleeve 27 and an external threaded sleeve 28, which improves the connection stability between the connecting pipe 6 and the air inlet pipe 4. A sealing gasket 29 is provided to improve the connection sealing and prevent air leakage. An air pump is used to ventilate the air inlet pipe 4 and the air vent pipe 3. The gas is dispersed by the air stone 5, and the packing material 7 particles begin to suspend and flow, forming a fluidized state. In the fluidized state, probiotics adhere to the surface of the packing material 7 and grow and reproduce. Nutrients and oxygen in the fluid are absorbed and utilized by the probiotics through efficient mass transfer for cultivation. After cultivation, the contents are collected by liquid discharge or carrier separation for seahorse farming.

[0032] When installing the fluidized bed body 1, press the first handle 14. The first handle 14 drives the piston rod 11 and piston plate 12 to move towards the installation suction cup 10. The piston plate 12 stretches the installation spring 13, making the installation suction cup 10 adhere to the side wall of the aquaculture pond. Then release the first handle 14. Under the elastic force of the installation spring 13, the piston plate 12 moves away from the installation suction cup 10, thus making the installation suction cup 10 continuously and stably in a vacuum state, improving the installation stability. When disassembling the fluidized bed body 1, pull the second handle 20. The second handle 20 drives the adjusting rod 18 and adjusting plate 19 to move outward. The adjusting plate 19 compresses the adjusting spring 21. After the adjusting plate 19 moves, it releases the adjusting hole 17. Water flows through the adjusting hole 17 into the adjusting groove 15 and the connecting groove 16, and into the installation suction cup 10, which facilitates the disassembly of the installation suction cup 10 and the fluidized bed body 1.
