[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, specifically to an eel farming device. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the social economy and the improvement of people's living standards, consumers' demand for aquatic products is increasing, and they are placing higher demands on the quality and safety of these products. This market demand is driving the aquaculture industry to transform towards large-scale, intensive, and intelligent operations.

[0003] In the field of eel farming, especially in the juvenile stage, traditional farming methods and equipment suffer from problems such as limited structural functions and incomplete sewage discharge, which seriously restrict the improvement of farming efficiency and quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing an eel farming device.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: An eel farming device includes a farming tank system, a water supply system, an overflow system, a sewage discharge system, and a control system. The farming tank system has a water supply system at the top, a sewage discharge system at the bottom, and an overflow system on the side. The overflow system and the sewage discharge system are directly connected to a drainage pipe or connected to the water supply system through a water supply pipe and a filter on the pipe. The overflow system, the sewage discharge system, and the water supply system are all controlled by the control system.

[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This system integrates aquaculture tanks, water supply, overflow, and sewage discharge, and is uniformly controlled by a control system. It boasts comprehensive functions, thorough sewage discharge, and automates and automates the aquaculture process, improving efficiency and quality while providing more stable growth conditions for eels. Furthermore, its multi-combination pipeline layout supports various aquaculture schemes such as direct drainage and recirculating water, significantly reducing water consumption while continuously optimizing water quality.

[0007] Furthermore, the aquaculture trough system is assembled from multiple layers and groups of aquaculture trough components. Each aquaculture trough component includes an aquaculture trough, with supporting columns at the four corners. The bottom of each supporting column is fitted with a foot sleeve. Adjacent aquaculture trough components are connected by retaining rings. This assembly structure allows for easy expansion or reduction according to aquaculture needs, offering strong flexibility and scalability, and adaptability to aquaculture production of different scales.

[0008] Furthermore, the aquaculture tank is equipped with column mounting holes at its four corners, overflow outlets on its side walls, a drain outlet at its bottom, and reinforcing ribs on its inner walls. The reinforcing ribs enhance the structural strength of the aquaculture tank, enabling it to withstand water pressure and the impact force generated by the eels' movements. The overflow outlets automatically control the water level in the tank, preventing excessively high water levels that could cause eels to escape. The drain outlets facilitate the centralized discharge of feces, uneaten feed, and other impurities from the tank, maintaining the cleanliness of the aquaculture water and reducing the risk of disease.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the breeding tank is conical, which facilitates the automatic accumulation of feces, uneaten feed, and other impurities near the drain outlet under gravity, making it easier for the sewage system to discharge them more efficiently and reducing the residue of impurities in the breeding tank.

[0010] Furthermore, the water supply system includes a main water supply pipe and branch water supply pipes. The inlet of the main water supply pipe is connected to an external water source via a water pump, and the outlet is connected to several branch water supply pipes. A main pipe ball valve is installed on the main water supply pipe, and water tank water supply regulating ball valves are installed on the branch water supply pipes. Through the cooperation of the main pipe ball valve and the water tank water supply regulating ball valves, the water supply to each breeding tank can be precisely adjusted to meet the water volume and flow rate requirements of eels at different growth stages.

[0011] Furthermore, the overflow system includes an overflow main pipe, with the inlet end of the overflow main pipe connected to the overflow outlet of each aquaculture tank via a union connector, and the outlet end connected to a water supply pipe. When the water level in the aquaculture tank exceeds the set value, water can flow into the overflow main pipe through the overflow outlet in a timely manner, and then be discharged through the water supply pipe, effectively preventing the adverse effects of excessively high water levels on eel farming.

[0012] Furthermore, the outside of the union is provided with a protective cover, which can prevent the union from being damaged by external impact, and also prevent eels or other foreign objects from entering the union and affecting the normal operation of the overflow system.

[0013] Furthermore, the sewage discharge system includes a main sewage discharge pipe. The inlet of the main sewage discharge pipe is connected to the sewage outlet of each aquaculture tank via a bottom regulating valve, and the outlet is connected to a water supply pipe. The main sewage discharge pipe is equipped with a main sewage discharge valve and a sewage discharge solenoid ball valve. The bottom regulating valve can control the sewage discharge volume and time of each aquaculture tank, while the main sewage discharge valve and the sewage discharge solenoid ball valve can control the operation of the sewage discharge system as a whole, achieving flexible control of sewage discharge.

[0014] Furthermore, a filter screen is installed at the connection between the main sewage pipe and the sewage outlet of the aquaculture tank via a filter screen connector. The filter screen can effectively filter out large particulate impurities in the sewage, such as feces and uneaten feed, preventing these impurities from entering the sewage pipe and causing blockage.

[0015] Furthermore, the control system includes a PLC, which is connected to the water pump, main pipeline ball valve, water tank water supply regulating ball valve, tank bottom regulating valve, sewage pipe main valve, and sewage discharge solenoid ball valve via wires to achieve automated control.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 7As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides an eel farming device, including a farming tank system 1, a water supply system 2, an overflow system 3, a sewage discharge system 4, and a control system (not shown in the figure). The farming tank system 1 has a water supply system 2 at the top, a sewage discharge system 4 at the bottom, and an overflow system 3 on the side. The overflow system 3 and the sewage discharge system 4 are directly connected to a drainage pipe or connected to the water supply system 2 through a water supply pipe and a filter on the pipe. The overflow system 3, the sewage discharge system 4, and the water supply system 2 are all controlled by the control system. Specifically: The aquaculture trough system 1 is assembled from multiple layers and groups of aquaculture trough components. Each aquaculture trough component includes an aquaculture trough 1-1, with supporting columns 1-2 at each of the four corners. Foot sleeves 1-4 are fitted onto the bottom of each supporting column 1-2. Adjacent aquaculture trough components are connected by retaining rings 1-3. The supporting columns 1-2 and foot sleeves 1-4 enhance the stability of the aquaculture trough system 1, enabling it to withstand the weight of the multiple layers of aquaculture trough 1-1. The retaining rings 1-3 facilitate convenient and quick installation and disassembly of the aquaculture trough components. Overall, this assembly structure allows for expansion or reduction according to aquaculture needs, is not limited by site constraints, and possesses strong flexibility and scalability, adapting to different scales of aquaculture production. Furthermore, the aquaculture trough system 1, with its small units (aquaculture trough components) as a group, effectively prevents the spread of pests and diseases, and the isolation of small units reduces losses.

[0023] In this embodiment, the breeding tank 1-1 is provided with column mounting holes 1-1.4 at the four corners, overflow outlets 1-1.2 on the side wall, sewage outlets 1-1.1 at the bottom, and reinforcing ribs 1-1.3 on the inner wall. The column mounting holes 1-1.4 facilitate the splicing of the aquaculture tanks 1-1, allowing for multi-layer and multi-group assembly according to site size and customer needs. The splicing spacing of the aquaculture tanks 1-1 is ergonomically designed to facilitate feeding, fish selection, fish collection, and shipment after the aquaculture stage. The reinforcing ribs 1-1.3 enhance the structural strength and durability of the aquaculture tanks 1-1, enabling them to withstand water pressure and the impact of eel activity. Their smooth, aesthetically pleasing curved shape facilitates stacking, saving on transportation costs and storage space. The overflow outlet 1-1.2 automatically controls the water level in the aquaculture tanks 1-1, preventing eels from escaping due to excessively high water levels. The location of the overflow outlet 1-1.2 on the side wall of the aquaculture tanks 1-1 can be adjusted according to the water depth requirements at different growth stages of the fish. The drain outlet 1-1.1 facilitates the centralized discharge of feces, uneaten feed, and other impurities from the aquaculture tanks 1-1, maintaining the cleanliness of the aquaculture water and reducing the risk of disease. The breeding tank 1-1 integrates multiple functions in a centralized manner. The sewage outlet 1-1.1, overflow outlet 1-1.2, and installation holes are all integrally molded, which facilitates mass production.

[0024] In this embodiment, the bottom of the breeding tank 1-1 is conical, which facilitates the automatic accumulation of feces, uneaten feed and other impurities near the drain outlet 1-1.1 under the action of gravity, making it easier for the sewage system 4 to discharge them more efficiently, reducing the residue of impurities in the breeding tank 1-1, and preventing water and dirt accumulation during sterilization, cleaning and emptying.

[0025] The water supply system 2 includes a main water supply pipe 2-1 and branch water supply pipes 2-3. The inlet of the main water supply pipe 2-1 is connected to an external water source via a water pump, and the outlet is connected to several branch water supply pipes 2-3. A main pipe ball valve 2-2 is installed on the main water supply pipe 2-1, and a water tank water supply regulating ball valve 2-4 is installed on the branch water supply pipes 2-3. Through the cooperation of the main pipe ball valve 2-2 and the water tank water supply regulating ball valve 2-4, the water supply to each breeding tank 1-1 can be precisely adjusted to meet the water volume and flow rate requirements of eels at different growth stages.

[0026] The overflow system 3 includes an overflow main pipe 3-1. The inlet end of the overflow main pipe 3-1 is connected to the overflow outlets 1-1.2 of each aquaculture tank via a union connector 3-2, and the outlet end is connected to a water supply pipe. When the water level in the aquaculture tank 1-1 exceeds the set value, water can flow into the overflow main pipe 3-1 through the overflow outlets 1-1.2 in a timely manner, and then be discharged through the water supply pipe, effectively preventing the adverse effects of excessively high water levels on eel farming.

[0027] In this embodiment, a protective cover 3-3 is provided on the outside of the union 3-2, which can prevent the union 3-2 from being damaged by external impact, and at the same time prevent eels or other foreign objects from entering the interior of the union 3-2 and affecting the normal operation of the overflow system 3.

[0028] The sewage discharge system 4 includes a main sewage discharge pipe 4-1.

The sewage discharge system 4 uses the PLC to control the sewage discharge solenoid ball valve 4-5 on the sewage discharge main pipe 4-1, thereby achieving a micro-flow water circulation aquaculture method with controllable water consumption. This method is more efficient, scientific, and intelligent, saving energy and reducing consumption while improving the water quality in the aquaculture tank 1-1.

[0031] The working principle of the above structure: During installation, first pass the four support columns 1-2 through the column mounting holes 1-1.4 at the four corners of the breeding tank 1-1, and fix them by limiting the position with fixing rings 1-3. Then connect the sewage main pipe 4-1, overflow main pipe 3-1, water supply main pipe 2-1 and water supply branch pipe 2-3 in sequence to complete the assembly.

[0032] In use, first adjust the opening and closing of the ball valve on the water supply system 2 pipeline to adjust the water supply for aquaculture; then adjust the opening and closing of the valve on the bottom drainage system 4 pipeline to adjust the drainage water output in aquaculture tank 1-1. Each group of aquaculture tank 1-1 is controlled by the drainage solenoid ball valve 4-5 for timed drainage; finally, the water discharged from the drainage system 4 and the overflow system 3 is returned to the water supply system 2 after filtration.

[0033] The aquaculture device in this embodiment integrates aquaculture tank components, a water supply system, a sewage system, an overflow system, and a PLC intelligent control system, achieving full-chain optimization of the aquaculture process. Reinforcing ribs and a conical bottom structure ensure both strength and efficient sewage discharge; modular assembly adapts to different site requirements and reduces manual labor intensity; multiple pipeline layouts and intelligent control support various aquaculture schemes such as direct drainage and circulating water, significantly reducing water consumption while continuously optimizing water quality; small-unit isolation design effectively blocks the spread of pests and diseases and facilitates expansion or reduction according to aquaculture needs. The device can be extended to the aquaculture of other juvenile fish, ultimately significantly improving survival rates and reducing overall costs through intelligent and large-scale aquaculture, providing farmers with an efficient, energy-saving, and scientific aquaculture solution.
