Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture water purification technology, and in particular to a water circulation and purification facility for turtle and tortoise farming. Background Technology

[0002] Turtle and tortoise farming, as an important part of the aquaculture industry, covers a variety of species, including terrestrial and aquatic turtles. With the continuous depletion of wild resources, artificial breeding has become the main development direction of the turtle and tortoise industry, and is gradually transforming towards a sustainable and ecologically balanced model, such as green and intelligent breeding and ecological cycle model.

[0003] However, existing turtle and tortoise farming models, especially traditional pond-based methods, still face numerous technical bottlenecks. Currently, most turtle and tortoise ponds have a relatively simple design, lacking scientific zoning planning, resulting in low efficiency in water resource circulation and purification. Specifically, pollutants generated during the farming process, such as uneaten feed and feces, cannot be removed effectively and promptly. As pollutants accumulate, water quality gradually deteriorates, affecting not only the turtles' and tortoises' living environment but also potentially leading to disease transmission, reduced farming quality, and even economic losses. Furthermore, traditional pond farming methods also present inconveniences in management, such as difficulty in flexibly adjusting the farming space, real-time monitoring and control of water quality during the farming process, and centralized treatment of farming waste. These problems all hinder the further development of the turtle and tortoise farming industry.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, it is particularly important to develop a facility capable of purifying and circulating water for turtle and tortoise farming. This facility should be able to scientifically zon and plan the farming space, improve the efficiency of water resource circulation and purification, and facilitate the farming management of breeders, thereby improving the quality of turtle and tortoise farming. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a water circulation and purification facility for turtle and tortoise farming, which scientifically divides and plans the turtle and tortoise farming space, accelerates the water circulation and purification process, facilitates the farming management of breeders, and improves the quality of turtle and tortoise farming.

[0029] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model discloses a water circulation and purification facility for turtle and tortoise farming, comprising a breeding chamber 1, a water-pushing chamber 2 and a sludge-accumulating chamber 3 respectively disposed on both sides of the breeding chamber 1, and a purification device 4 disposed in the sludge-accumulating chamber 3. The breeding chamber 1 is interconnected with the water-pushing chamber 2 and the sludge-accumulating chamber 3, and both the water-pushing chamber 2 and the sludge-accumulating chamber 3 are connected to an external pond. A partition net 5 is provided between the breeding chamber 1 and the water-pushing chamber 2, and between the breeding chamber 1 and the sludge-accumulating chamber 3. The purification device 4 comprises an activated carbon filter layer 41, a sand and gravel layer 42, and a biological filter layer 43 stacked sequentially from left to right. The left surface of the sand and gravel layer 42 is attached to the right surface of the activated carbon filter layer 41, and the right surface of the sand and gravel layer 42 is attached to the left surface of the biological filter layer 43.

[0031] This application requires use in conjunction with a pond and is suitable for the breeding of aquatic turtles and tortoises. Since the breeding chamber 1 is interconnected with the water-pushing chamber 2 and the sludge-collecting chamber 3, and both the water-pushing chamber 2 and the sludge-collecting chamber 3 are connected to the pond, a water circulation and purification layout is formed between the water-pushing chamber 2, the breeding chamber 1, the sludge-collecting chamber 3, and the pond. The breeding chamber 1 is mainly used for raising turtles and tortoises. The water-pushing chamber 2 continuously pushes water from one direction to the breeding chamber 1 and the sludge-collecting chamber 3. The water flow pushes the pollutants generated in the breeding chamber 1 to the sludge-collecting chamber 3, ensuring the cleanliness of the breeding chamber 1. When the water flow pushes the pollutants to the sludge-collecting chamber 3, the pollutants pass through the activated carbon filter layer 41, the sand and gravel layer 42, and the biological filter layer 43 in sequence. Due to its porous structure and large specific surface area, activated carbon can effectively adsorb organic matter, heavy metal ions, drug residues, odors, and some inorganic matter, thereby maintaining water cleanliness. In addition, it can also adsorb suspended particulate matter, reduce water turbidity, and make the water clearer. As a natural material, sand and gravel are not only widely available but also reusable. They provide a habitat for beneficial microorganisms such as nitrifying bacteria. These microorganisms improve water quality by decomposing pollutants such as organic matter, ammonia nitrogen, and nitrite in the water. For example, nitrifying bacteria can convert ammonia nitrogen into nitrate, while denitrifying bacteria further convert it into harmless nitrogen gas, thereby reducing the accumulation of harmful substances. The biofilter layer 43 further degrades harmful substances through microorganisms and optimizes the microbial community structure in the water through synergistic metabolism among microorganisms, thereby maintaining the ecological balance of the water body and efficiently removing suspended solids, ammonia nitrogen, and total phosphorus, so that the water body meets the discharge standards. The purified water is then discharged back into the pond. Since both the push chamber 2 and the sludge collection chamber 3 are connected to the pond, the water returns to the push chamber 2 to begin a new round of water circulation and purification, thus forming a natural cycle. A partition net 5 is installed between the breeding room 1 and the water-pushing room 2, and between the breeding room 1 and the waste accumulation room 3. The mesh size of the partition net 5 is not too small, and the water flow speed is not too fast, so that when the water flows to flush away pollutants, the pollutants can pass through the partition net 5 smoothly. The partition net 5 also effectively prevents turtles and tortoises from escaping. This utility model scientifically divides and plans the turtle and tortoise breeding space, accelerates the water resource circulation and purification process, facilitates the breeding management of breeders, and improves the quality of turtle and tortoise breeding.

[0032] The breeding chamber 1 in this embodiment includes a filter plate 11, a feeding trough 12 disposed on the filter plate 11, a lifting cylinder 13 drivenly connected to the filter plate 11, a sleeve 14 spaced apart from the lifting cylinder 13, and a support column 15 slidably connected to the sleeve 14. The support column 15 is connected to the filter plate 11. The filter plate 11 is provided with a plurality of filter holes 16, all of which are disposed through the filter plate 11 so that the waste and water of the turtles and tortoises carried on the filter plate 11 fall off through the plurality of filter holes 16. Specifically, the lifting cylinder 13 drives the filter plate 11 to move up and down. Two support columns 15 and two sleeves 14 are respectively provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the filter plate 11. The support columns 15 are connected to the filter plate 11, and the support columns 15 and the sleeves 14 are slidably connected, which effectively improves the stability of the filter plate 11's up and down movement. Multiple filter holes 16 are provided through the filter plate 11. The filter plate 11 is used to support and hold multiple turtles and tortoises. When the lifting cylinder 13 drives the filter plate 11 to rise above the water surface, the pollutants and water on the turtles and tortoises can fall to the bottom of the breeding room 1 along the multiple filter holes 16, so that the water pushing chamber 2 can use the water flow to push and move the pollutants in the breeding room 1 to the sludge accumulation chamber 3. At this time, multiple turtles and tortoises are exposed to the air and can move freely on the filter plate 11, which helps multiple turtles and tortoises to have a natural sunbathing when they are temporarily away from the water source. The ultraviolet rays in sunlight have a bactericidal effect, killing bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites on the surface of turtles and tortoises, thus preventing disease. Sunbathing also aids in wound healing; ultraviolet rays kill pathogens around the wound, reducing the risk of infection and accelerating tissue repair. Furthermore, turtles and tortoises are cold-blooded animals, needing to regulate their body temperature through the external environment. Sunbathing quickly raises their body temperature, accelerating metabolism, promoting digestion, and helping them better absorb food to maintain normal physiological functions. Because the mesh size of the filter 16 is smaller than the size of the turtles and tortoises, it effectively prevents them from accidentally falling through the filter screen 11. Feed is placed into the feeding trough 12 manually or by an external feeding mechanism, allowing for concentrated feeding and preventing overfeeding and reducing waste. When the lifting cylinder 13 lowers the filter screen 11 below the water surface, any remaining feed in the feeding trough 12 is washed away by the water flow.

[0033] In this embodiment, a ramp 17 is provided at the connection between the feeding trough 12 and the filter plate 11. Specifically, turtles and tortoises climb onto the feeding trough 12 via the ramp 17 to eat, improving the convenience of feeding for turtles and tortoises.

[0034] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 18 is provided between the sleeve 14 and the bottom of the breeding chamber 1. The reinforcing rib 18 is arranged in a triangular pattern. Specifically, the reinforcing rib 18 is provided between the sleeve 14 and the bottom of the breeding chamber 1, and the reinforcing rib 18 is arranged in a triangular pattern. The most significant characteristic of a triangle is its high structural stability. The high structural stability comes from the rigidity and structural strength of the triangle, making it less prone to deformation or damage when subjected to external forces. The reinforcing rib 18 can enhance the connection stability between the sleeve 14 and the breeding chamber 1 and improve the working stability of the sleeve 14.

[0035] In this embodiment, the water-pushing chamber 2 includes an air pump 21, a main air pipe 22 connected to the output end of the air pump 21, a distributor 23 connected to the main air pipe 22, multiple branch air pipes 24 connected to the distributor 23, an air chamber 25 connected to the multiple branch air pipes 24, and a jet pipe 26 connected to the air chamber 25. Multiple air pressure regulating valves 27 are connected between the multiple branch air pipes 24 and the air chamber 25, and each air pressure regulating valve 27 is connected to one of the multiple branch air pipes 24. Specifically, the compressed air generated by the air pump 21 enters the distributor 23 through the main air pipe 22. The distributor 23 then connects to the air chamber 25 through the multiple branch air pipes 24. The air pressure regulating valves 27, located between the multiple branch air pipes 24 and the air chamber 25, effectively adjust the air pressure of each branch air pipe 24 according to specific working requirements, thereby adjusting the gas pressure of the jet pipe 26, making the jet pipe 26 spray high-pressure gas to propel the water flow more smoothly and efficiently.

[0036] In this embodiment, the air chamber 25 is equipped with a partition 28, which separates the air chamber 25 into multiple air distribution chambers 29. Multiple jet pipes 26 are provided, and each jet pipe 26 is connected to one of the multiple air distribution chambers 29, allowing them to be arranged vertically at intervals relative to the air chamber 25. Specifically, the air chamber 25 is separated into multiple air distribution chambers 29 by the partition 28, and the multiple jet pipes 26 are connected to each of the multiple air distribution chambers 29, allowing them to be arranged vertically at intervals relative to the air chamber 25. This effectively injects compressed air into the multiple air distribution chambers 29 via the multiple air distribution pipes 24. Since each air distribution chamber 29 is equipped with a pressure regulating valve 27, the pressure of the multiple jet pipes 26 can be effectively adjusted according to specific working requirements. This allows each air distribution chamber 29 to be controlled independently, achieving segmented pressure regulation and ensuring that the multiple jet pipes 26 output the required working air pressure to meet the continuous water-pushing needs.

[0037] In this embodiment, the sludge chamber 3 includes a sludge treatment area 31 and a purification area 32 connected to the sludge treatment area 31. The purification device 4 is disposed between the sludge treatment area 31 and the purification area 32. Specifically, the sludge treatment area 31 and the purification area 32 are interconnected. The purification device 4 is disposed between the sludge treatment area 31 and the purification area 32 to purify the water. The feces and sludge of turtles and tortoises will naturally settle in the sludge treatment area 31. The feces and sludge settled in the sludge treatment area 31 can be cleaned and removed by manual retrieval or by an external sludge treatment facility.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
