Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquarium filtration technology, and in particular to an aquarium filtration mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Aquarium filtration systems are an indispensable component of aquarium equipment. Their main function is to continuously purify the water to maintain its stability and cleanliness, ensuring a healthy environment for aquatic animals. Modern aquarium filtration systems typically integrate physical filtration, biological filtration, and some water circulation functions, and are widely used in home aquariums, commercial display tanks, and scientific research aquarium equipment. To achieve efficient water circulation and impurity isolation, the structural design of the filtration system and the arrangement of the filtration path directly impact the water quality control effect.

[0003] In existing technologies, aquarium filtration systems generally employ a single-path water flow channel for filtration. Their main structure includes filter media, a filter media chamber, and a water pump. Water flows from the inlet, passes through the filter media layer, is processed sequentially, flows into the pump chamber, and is then driven by the pump to flow back into the aquarium, completing the circulation. While this type of structure provides basic filtration, it typically lacks channel adjustment capabilities, and the filter media configuration is fixed, offering no room for flexible adjustments. Therefore, in practical use, it is difficult to adapt and optimize the water flow path according to water quality conditions or types of impurities.

[0004] However, existing aquarium filtration devices have the problem of a single filtration path in their design, which makes it impossible to flexibly adjust the filtration process. As a result, when the filtration efficiency decreases or the filter media combination needs to be replaced, users often have to disassemble and adjust the entire filtration system, which not only affects the operating efficiency but also increases the maintenance cost, making it difficult to meet the actual needs of diverse water quality management. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a fish tank filtration mechanism, which aims to improve the problem that the filtration path is singular and cannot be adjusted according to actual conditions during fish tank filtration.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a fish tank filtration mechanism, including a bracket, a fish tank fixedly connected inside the bracket, a shell fixedly connected to one side of the fish tank, and a flow guiding component provided inside the bracket;

[0007] The flow guiding component includes a first water-separating plate, the outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the inside of the fish tank. A second water-separating plate is fixedly connected to the inside of the fish tank. The first and second water-separating plates are arranged alternately inside the fish tank. A water passage is provided inside the fish tank. A first flow outlet and a second flow outlet are provided inside the fish tank. A separation component is provided at the top of the fish tank. A water pump chamber is provided inside the fish tank.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The separation component includes a frame, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the aquarium. A dry and wet separation box is fixedly connected inside the frame. A filter water-turning trough is opened inside the frame. A movable box is slidably connected inside the frame.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] A shell is fixedly connected to one side of the fish tank, a rinsing pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the shell, a water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rinsing pipe, and a water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to one end of the water inlet pipe.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] A ball valve is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flushing pipe, and a ball valve is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water supply pipe.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] A water pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the housing, and a drain pipe is fixedly connected inside the housing.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The shell is equipped with a sedimentation and water-turning tank, and the fish tank is equipped with a sedimentation chamber.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] A partition is fixedly connected inside the shell.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] A drain pipe is fixedly connected inside the housing.

[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. In this utility model, solid particles are first trapped in the sedimentation chamber, and the filtered water falls to the bottom. Then, the water flows through the filter media chamber composed of multiple baffle plates and baffle plates. After that, the water flows through the flow port one into the water passage and then flows back to the water pump chamber from the flow port two for circulation. This achieves the effect of setting multiple filtration channels, which solves the problem that the filtration path is single and cannot be adjusted according to the actual situation when filtering aquariums, thus improving the practicality of aquarium filtration.

[0024] 2. In this utility model, closing ball valve one and opening ball valve two allows water to flow through the inlet pipe, ball valve two, and then into the outlet pipe one before entering the aquarium. When rinsing the shell is required, simply close ball valve two and open ball valve one to allow water to flow through the inlet pipe into the rinsing pipe and into the shell. The shell is separated into two rinsing pipes by a partition, which facilitates rinsing the sedimentation chamber and cleaning impurities. This solves the problem of the inconvenience of removing impurities and debris from the aquarium when cleaning the filter, thus improving the convenience of the aquarium filtration mechanism.

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The present invention provides an embodiment of a fish tank filtration mechanism, including a support 1, which supports the overall structure and improves the stability of the device. A fish tank 2 is fixedly connected inside the support 1. The fish tank 2 is used to contain water and provide an aquatic environment. A shell 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the fish tank 2. The shell 3 is used to contain auxiliary structures and water flow channels. A flow guiding component is provided inside the support 1 to guide the water flow along a set path and improve filtration efficiency.

[0034] The flow guiding assembly includes a first baffle plate 8, whose outer wall is fixedly connected to the inside of the fish tank 2. This baffle plate 8 separates different filtration zones and guides the water flow direction. A second baffle plate 9 is fixedly connected inside the fish tank 2. The second baffle plate 9, together with the first baffle plate 8, forms an interlaced structure, increasing the complexity of the water flow filtration path, extending the water residence time, and improving the filtration effect. The first baffle plate 8 and the second baffle plate 9 are arranged in an interlaced manner inside the fish tank 2 to form a tortuous water path, enhancing the sedimentation effect. A water passage 11 is provided inside the fish tank 2, which is used to connect... The filtration area and return water area achieve continuous circulation. Aquarium 2 has a flow outlet 10 inside, which guides the filtered water into the water passage 11 to ensure stable water flow. Aquarium 2 also has a flow outlet 12 inside, which connects to the water pump chamber 4 to allow the filtered water to re-enter the circulation system. A separation component is installed at the top of aquarium 2 to achieve solid-liquid separation and improve the initial filtration effect. The separation component includes a frame 5, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of aquarium 2 to support the separation structure and enhance the overall structural strength of the component. The frame 5 has a fixedly connected dry and wet separation box 6, which is used to initially intercept larger solid impurities in the water, achieving primary filtration. The frame 5 also has a filter tipping trough 7, which controls the water flow path, preventing direct impact on the bottom of the aquarium 2 and causing water turbulence, while increasing the contact area between the water and air, thus improving oxygen levels. A movable box 25 is slidably connected inside the frame 5, guiding water to the leftmost water-blocking plate 8. A shell 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the aquarium 2. The housing 3 is used to house and guide the rinsing structure and control components. A rinsing pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 3. The rinsing pipe 15 is used to guide water into the housing 3 during the cleaning process to realize the automatic rinsing function. A water inlet pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rinsing pipe 15. The water inlet pipe 13 is used to connect to the external water source and provide water pressure guarantee for the entire system. A water outlet pipe 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the water inlet pipe 13. The water outlet pipe 14 is used to introduce water into the fish tank 2 to complete the water replenishment or cleaning operation during normal operation. The water passage 11 can be set at the bottom or rear of the fish tank 2.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4A ball valve 20 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flushing pipe 15. Ball valve 20 controls the flow of flushing water, opening when internal flushing of the housing 3 is required and remaining closed during non-flushing operations to prevent water leakage. A ball valve 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water supply pipe 13. Ball valve 21 controls the flow of water for daily replenishment or supply. The coordinated control of ball valves 20 and 21 allows for switching of flow paths between different operating modes, improving the flexibility and practicality of the system. A water pipe 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 3, guiding flushing water or circulating water into the housing 3 and distributing it to the internal structural areas, enhancing water coverage and improving flushing efficiency. A drain pipe 17 is fixedly connected inside the housing 3, communicating with the sedimentation area to discharge the wastewater. The sedimentation process ensures that large particles of impurities in the water are effectively separated and deposited. The shell 3 is equipped with a sedimentation and turning tank 23, which promotes the settling of suspended particles in the water by changing the water flow path and flow rate, thus effectively improving the solid-liquid separation effect. The aquarium 2 is equipped with a sedimentation chamber 18, which is used to temporarily store impurities or solid particles that have settled from the water flow, preventing contamination of other water paths and extending the service life of the filtration system. The shell 3 is fixedly connected with a partition 22, which divides the internal space of the shell 3 into multiple functional areas, preventing water flow short circuits and promoting step-by-step purification of the water. The shell 3 is fixedly connected with a drain pipe 19, which is connected to the bottom of the sedimentation chamber 18 for periodically discharging the settled impurities and wastewater, facilitating maintenance and keeping the system clean.

[0036] Working principle: When using this aquarium filter, the aquarium 2 is first filled with water. During filtration, the water in the pump chamber 4 enters the sedimentation and overflow tank 23 through the drain pipe 17, and then overflows into the housing 3 through the sedimentation and overflow tank 23. Fish waste and other impurities fall into the sedimentation chamber 18. When the housing 3 is full, it overflows into the filter overflow tank 7 through the water pipe 16. The water then flows over the filter overflow tank 7 and enters the dry and wet separation box 6 for further filtration, so that solid particles are trapped on the wet separation box 6. The filtered water falls to the bottom and then flows through the filter media chamber composed of multiple baffles 8 and baffles 9. The water then flows through the flow port 10 into the water passage 11 and then flows back into the pump chamber 4 through the flow port 12 for circulation, achieving the effect of setting multiple filtration channels.

[0037] When it is necessary to add water to the fish tank 2, close ball valve 1 20 and open ball valve 2 21, so that the water source enters the fish tank 2 through the water inlet pipe 13, ball valve 2 21, and then the water outlet pipe 1 14. When it is necessary to rinse the shell 3, simply close ball valve 2 21 and open ball valve 1 20, so that the water source enters the rinsing pipe 15 through the water inlet pipe 13 and then rinses the shell 3. The shell 3 is separated by the partition 22 between the two rinsing pipes 15, so that they are isolated when rinsing the shell 3. Then, open the drain pipe 19 to quickly discharge the impurities stored in the sedimentation chamber 18, so as to facilitate rinsing the sedimentation chamber and cleaning impurities.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
