Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rainforest terrarium technology, and relates to flip-top type, particularly a flip-top rainforest terrarium. Background Technology
[0002] A rainforest terrarium is an aquarium designed to simulate the ecosystem of a tropical rainforest. It combines aquatic and terrestrial plants, with some areas potentially above water. It maintains suitable humidity and temperature through humidifiers and heaters. Natural materials such as rocks, tree roots, and wood are used to create diverse habitats suitable for tropical fish and invertebrates. Rainforest terrariums emphasize ecological balance, promoting harmonious coexistence between fish, plants, and other organisms. They are not only aesthetically pleasing but also serve as an educational tool, helping people understand the complexity and importance of ecosystems.
[0003] Some existing rainforest terrariums have the following problems when in use: First, traditional rainforest terrariums are mainly characterized by wrought iron and aluminum frames, which are not aesthetically pleasing or simple in appearance; second, when the door of a traditional rainforest terrarium is opened, it will hinder the maintenance of the landscape inside the terrarium, making maintenance difficult. Therefore, this problem needs to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a flip-top rainforest terrarium. The technical problems to be solved by this utility model are: first, traditional rainforest terrariums are mainly characterized by wrought iron and aluminum frames, which are not aesthetically pleasing or simple in appearance; second, when the door of a traditional rainforest terrarium is opened, it will hinder the maintenance of the landscape inside the terrarium, making maintenance difficult.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A flip-top rainforest terrarium includes a tank body with an inspection door on one side. A door stop is rotatably connected to one side of the inspection door, and a connector is fixedly connected to the top of the door stop. Guide shafts are fixedly connected to both ends of the connector, and adjustment mechanisms for adjusting the door stop are provided on the surfaces of both guide shafts. The inspection door allows users to more easily maintain the terrarium.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the adjusting mechanism includes a top cover, which is fixedly connected to the top of the cylinder body. A sliding groove is provided on the top of the top cover. A first guide groove is provided inside the sliding groove on the side near the guide shaft. A second guide groove is provided at the end of the first guide groove away from the guide shaft. The first guide groove and the second guide groove are interconnected. The guide shaft is slidably connected inside the first guide groove and the second guide groove. Four vent holes are provided inside the sliding groove. The four vent holes are evenly arranged in the direction. The door stop can be moved by the arrangement of the guide groove.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the cylinder body and door stop are made of ultra-clear glass, and the top cover and connecting parts are made of acrylic. By using acrylic for the top cover and ultra-clear glass for the cylinder body, it has the advantages of being easy to use, convenient to install, having good light transmission, and being aesthetically pleasing.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0010] 1. This utility model has the advantages of being easy to use, convenient to install, having good light transmission, and beautiful appearance because it uses acrylic for the top cover and ultra-clear glass for the cylinder body.
[0011] 2. This utility model features an inspection door on the side of the cylinder body, and the door stop can be flipped and stored, which makes it easier for users to maintain the landscape. Attached Figure Description

[0015] In the diagram: 1. Cylinder block; 2. Top cover; 3. Door stop; 101. Inspection door; 201. Slide groove; 202. First guide groove; 203. Second guide groove; 204. Vent hole; 301. Connecting piece; 302. Guide shaft. Detailed Implementation
[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0017] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 A flip-top rainforest terrarium includes a tank body 1. An inspection door 101 is provided on one side of the tank body 1. A door stop 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the inspection door 101. A connector 301 is fixedly connected to the top of the door stop 3. Guide shafts 302 are fixedly connected to both ends of the connector 301. The surfaces of the two guide shafts 302 are provided with adjustment mechanisms for adjusting the door stop 3. The inspection door 101 makes it easier for users to maintain the landscape.
[0018] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a top cover 2, which is fixedly connected to the top of the cylinder body 1. A sliding groove 201 is provided on the top of the top cover 2. The sliding groove 201 can accommodate the door stop 3. A first guide groove 202 is provided inside the sliding groove 201 on the side near the guide shaft 302. A second guide groove 203 is provided at the end of the first guide groove 202 away from the guide shaft 302. The first guide groove 202 and the second guide groove 203 are interconnected. The guide shaft 302 is slidably connected inside the first guide groove 202 and the second guide groove 203. Four vent holes 204 are provided inside the sliding groove 201. The four vent holes 204 are evenly arranged in the direction. The door stop 3 can be moved by the guide groove.
[0019] Preferably, the cylinder body 1 and the door stop 3 are made of ultra-clear glass, and the top cover 2 and the connector 301 are made of acrylic. By using acrylic for the top cover 2 and ultra-clear glass for the cylinder body 1, it has the advantages of being easy to use, convenient to install, having good light transmission, and being aesthetically pleasing.
[0020] Working principle: When the internal landscape needs maintenance, the door stop 3 on one side of the cylinder body 1 can be flipped. A top cover 2 is installed on the top of the cylinder body 1. Two first guide channels 202 are symmetrically opened inside the top cover 2. The door stop 3 is connected to the first guide channels 202 through a guide shaft 302. Thus, the door stop 3 can be flipped with the guide shaft 302 as the center. Because the first guide channels 202 have a certain length, after the door stop 3 is flipped, it can be inserted into the top cover 2 to ensure stable placement. When the door stop 3 is opened, the maintenance door 101 is fully opened. Because the maintenance door 101 is opened on the side and the door stop 3 can be flipped and stored, it can ensure that the user can more easily maintain the landscape. A second guide channel 203 is also opened at the other end of the two first guide channels 202. Thus, the door stop 3 can be completely removed when the second guide channel 203 is opened. During the use of the cylinder body 1, the area below the maintenance door 101 is the water storage area.
[0021] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
