Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

  The present invention renews the image of the conventional aquarium and exhibits the display effect. Related to thin water tanks intended to be possible or easy to maintain Is.

[0002]

[Prior art]

  Conventionally, this kind of aquarium generally has a cubic structure rather than stability orientation, Easy to swim or raise so-called tropical fish and ornamental fish (hereinafter simply referred to as tropical fish) And stable installation.

[0003]   In addition, since these aquariums have the main purpose of raising tropical fish and watching the fish themselves, As the lighting device, fluorescent lighting and other lighting equipment such as interior stationary type are installed. Is the current situation.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

  The water tank having the conventional structure described above has a cubic shape.

[0005]   As a result, various objects such as desks and counters can be placed on the aquarium (installed objects). When mounted or installed on a mounting table (hereinafter described as a desk), a large occupied area is required. take.

[0006]   Therefore, the effective use area of the desk cannot be secured, in other words, on these desks, It can be said that it is not suitable for easy placement.

[0007]   Similarly, a conventional water tank with a cubic structure has a wall-mounted water tank. Then, it cannot be adopted at all.

[0008]   As mentioned above, the conventional aquariums are mainly used for breeding and watching, and It is not effectively used as a product or advertising medium, and there is still room for improvement.

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

  Therefore, the present invention can be placed on a desk so that its effective utilization area can be secured. Use a thin water tank. Also, prevent water pollution in this thin water tank and effectively circulate water. To achieve an environment that is beneficial to breeding for a long time. Further advertising media or views In order to make the water tank suitable as an award device, the following configuration is adopted.

[0010]   That is, the present invention is provided with a clear water chamber and several stages of filtration layers on the inner bottom surface, and illuminates the inner surface of the top plate. A thin aquarium body with a device,   The water tank body attached to the front see-through portion of this water tank body or provided outside the water tank body. A display device for characters, patterns, etc., which is operated via the light transmission means,   A transport device for transporting the clear water in the clear water chamber to the aquarium body,   It is a thin aquarium with a display panel composed of.

[0011]

[Action]

  Next, the mounting method of the present invention will be explained. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. In the case of the type, the water tank is erected by an unillustrated erection mount or a suspension device.

[0012]   After that, a filter medium and a multistage filter layer of artificial sand, white coral, etc. are formed.

[0013]   After filling with seawater (including water, the same applies below) or seawater with chemicals added, Interior items such as algae and ornamental rocks will be properly placed in the seawater.

[0014]   Put a suitable number of tropical fish in the aquarium constructed in this way, and transfer pump, Alternatively, turn on the switch of the display device.

[0015]   Therefore, the feces of tropical fish and other pollutants are artificial sand or living organisms such as white corals. Chemical treatment (treatment method utilizing bacterial activity and growth), and filtration Through, it is naturally clarified.

[0016]   Then, it is further clarified (filtrated and separated) through a filter medium, and the clarified water is provided on the inner bottom surface of the water tank. It is stored in the clear water chamber.

[0017]   The clear water stored in this clear water chamber is pumped up, Is mixed into the seawater.

[0018]   On the other hand, in the display device, the light coloring plate is rotated, and its color is transmitted through the optical fiber on the bundle. Then, the letters etc. provided in the water tank are illuminated.

[0019]   There are various ways to illuminate the characters. A change method or a flashing method, a light emitting diode method, and a liquid crystal method can be used. However, the method is not limited to each of the above methods.

[0020]   Note that FIG. 5 shows an embedded mounting method on a wall surface or a partition, and as shown in FIG. A pair method or a single method not shown may be considered.

[0021]   Further, FIG. 6 shows a wall-mounted system (wall-mounted type) water tank. It has a unique shape.

[0022]

【Example】

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

[0023]   1 is a flat and thin aquarium body, and the inner bottom surface of the aquarium body 1 has artificial sand (cosmosa). And a second filtration layer 2 composed of white coral or barley stone granules. Layer 3 and a third filtration layer 4 of non-woven fabric, cloth or other filtering material are each provided Moreover, a clear water chamber 5 is formed below these filtration layer groups.

[0024]   An illumination device 6 such as a fluorescent lamp is provided on the inner surface of the top plate of the water tank body 1.

[0025]   Then, in this example, the aquarium body 1 has an opaque portion in which the front see-through portion 111 is omitted. A frame 112 formed of a material, and a lid 1 that closes an upper opening 113 of the frame 112 14 and a transparent front plate 115 fitted to the front see-through portion 111. There is.

[0026]   Also, considering the appearance or aesthetic aspect of the ornamental water tank, the filtration layer group on the inner bottom surface and The clear water chamber 5 and the portion of the lighting device 6 on the inner surface of the top plate are covered with an opaque member. Is ideal.

[0027]   A tip of a pipe 7 faces the clear water chamber 5, and a pipe or the like is connected to the pipe 7. The suction means 8 is provided.

[0028]   In the figure, 9 is an air pipe.

[0029]   Therefore, the seawater in the clear water chamber 5 is sucked up through the pipe 7 and the water tank With the structure that is discharged from the opening facing the upper part of the main body 1, seawater can be kept for a long time, Maintained under optimal oxygen or temperature conditions.

[0030]   Reference numeral 10 in the figure denotes a display plate made of a synthetic resin or the like provided inside the back surface of the water tank body 1. On the front surface side of the display board 10 (not limited to the front surface side, the same applies hereinafter), characters and patterns are displayed. The visual transmission medium 11 is provided on the back side of the visual transmission medium 11. , A large number of optical fibers 12 are installed in each.

[0031]   A rotatable light coloring plate 13 is provided at the base end of the optical fiber 12. The light 14 incident on the light-coloring plate 13 is used to guide the light to the optical fiber 12. The addition of the seed color and the color imparted to the optical fiber 12 cause the visual transmission. The structure is such that the medium 11 is colored.

[0032]   A display plate 10 provided with the visual transmission medium 11, an optical fiber 12 and a light coloring plate The character, pattern, etc. display device 13 is an example and is not limited to this example. As a matter of course, other devices such as a blinking type and a light emitting diode type can also be adopted. It In addition, the light fibers 12 can be put on a bundle to have various changes. .

[0033]   The material (member) of the water tank body 1 is ideally plastic, but is not particularly limited. I can't.

[0034]   In the figure, 15 is the building wall surface or partition, 16 is the same floor surface, 17 is the same ceiling surface, respectively. Indicate

[0035]

[Effect of device]
