Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of algae cultivation technology, and specifically relates to an algae cultivation device. Background Technology

[0002] In aquaculture, adding algae to aquatic feed can provide comprehensive and high-quality nutrition and promote growth and development. Therefore, using culture tanks to cultivate algae is convenient. However, existing culture tanks, which are transparent and placed outdoors to cultivate algae by sunlight, suffer from the following problem: during the cultivation process, the algae, due to phototaxis, will attach to the side walls of the tank and gradually cover the side walls, affecting the visible light level inside the tank and thus hindering algae cultivation. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an algae cultivation device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this algae cultivation device to solve its technical problems is as follows:

[0005] An algae cultivation device is provided, including a transparent box. A through-hole is formed at the bottom of the transparent box, and a vertical tube is rotatably installed within the through-hole via a sealed bearing. An air pump is located below the transparent box, and the air outlet of the air pump is rotatably connected to the lower end of the vertical tube via a sealed bearing. A first gear is fixedly installed on the outer periphery of the vertical tube. A drive motor is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the transparent box, and a second gear is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor, meshing with the first gear. One end of a telescopic tube is fixedly connected to the upper end of the vertical tube, and an air guide tube is fixedly installed at the other end of the telescopic tube. Several air jets are evenly fixedly installed on the air guide tube. A limiting slide rail is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the transparent box, and a limiting slider is fitted onto the limiting slide rail, with the limiting slider fixedly connected to the telescopic tube.

[0006] Furthermore, the upper layer of the transparent box is equipped with the same vertical pipe, telescopic pipe, limiting slide rail and limiting slider. The upper end of the upper vertical pipe is rotatably connected to the water outlet of the water pump through a sealed bearing. The water pump is fixedly installed on the transparent box. The movable end of the upper telescopic pipe is fixedly connected to the water pipe. Several spray heads are evenly fixedly installed on the outer circumference of the water pipe. The water pipe and the air guide pipe are fixedly connected.

[0007] Furthermore, a bracket is fixedly installed between the upper and lower telescopic tubes, a waterproof motor is fixedly installed on the bracket, and a stirring blade is fixedly installed on the waterproof motor.

[0008] Furthermore, a constant temperature heating rod is fixedly installed on the bracket.

[0009] Furthermore, several supplementary lighting tubes are fixedly installed on the transparent box.

[0010] Furthermore, a controller is provided on one side of the transparent box, and the controller is connected to the air pump, drive motor, water pump and waterproof motor through circuits.

[0011] Furthermore, support legs are fixedly installed on the aforementioned housing.

[0013] 1. An algae cultivation device according to this utility model, when in use, the air pump is connected to the air source, the drive motor is started, and the vertical tube, telescopic tube and air guide tube can be rotated through the second gear and the first gear. With the cooperation of the limiting slide rail and the limiting slider, the air guide tube always stays close to the side wall of the transparent box during the movement.

This process can not only clean the algae on the side wall of the transparent box, but also inflate the inside of the transparent box. Through this device, the side wall of the transparent box can be cleaned during the inflation process, thereby improving the light transmission performance.

[0014] 2. In the algae cultivation device of this utility model, when in use, the air guide pipe can drive the water pipe to rotate, so that the air jet head can cooperate with the liquid spraying head when spraying air, so that the sprayed gas and nutrient solution are mutually entrained and impact the inner wall of the transparent box, which facilitates the cleaning of algae on the side wall of the transparent box.

[0015] 3. In the algae cultivation device of this utility model, when in use, a waterproof motor drives the stirring paddle to rotate, which can agitate the water in the transparent box.

[0016] 4. An algae cultivation device according to this utility model example uses a constant temperature heating rod to heat the inside of a transparent water tank, which facilitates the growth of algae at a suitable temperature.

[0017] 5. An algae cultivation device according to this utility model example can improve algae growth by supplementing light when external light is insufficient through supplemental lighting tubes.

[0018] 6. An algae cultivation device according to this utility model example can be conveniently controlled by a controller.

[0027] In this embodiment, the upper layer of the transparent box 1 is provided with the same vertical pipe 3, telescopic pipe 8, limiting slide rail 11 and limiting slider 12. The upper end of the upper vertical pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the water outlet of the water pump 13 through a sealed bearing. The water pump 13 is fixedly installed on the transparent box 1. The movable end of the upper telescopic pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the water pipe 14. Several spray heads 15 are evenly fixedly installed on the outer periphery of the water pipe 14.

[0028] In this embodiment, a bracket 16 is fixedly installed between the upper and lower telescopic tubes 8, a waterproof motor 17 is fixedly installed on the bracket 16, and an agitator blade 18 is fixedly installed on the waterproof motor 17. The waterproof motor 17 adopts the existing mature slip ring power supply technology, which will not be described in detail in this application.

[0029] In this embodiment, a constant temperature heating rod 19 is fixedly installed on the bracket 16.

[0030] In this embodiment, several supplementary lighting tubes 20 are fixedly installed on the transparent box 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, a controller 21 is provided on one side of the transparent box 1.
