The present invention relates to a removal piece and a water tank circulation system using the same.

In recent years, various fish species have been attracting attention for exhibition and ornamental purposes. In order to grow these various fish species, it is necessary to create an optimal environment for the growth of each fish species, and various functional tanks have emerged to create such an environment.

In order to create an optimal growth environment, various environments should be created according to the characteristics of various fish species. However, regardless of the species, the system that can filter various harmful substances such as food waste, excreta, dust, etc. It must be provided.

Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1021911 (2011.03.07.) Discloses "seawater fish tank circulation system for exhibition."

This can create an optimal habitat environment so that the fish can live well, exhibit the fish for a long time while breeding it without disease, and eliminate the inconvenience of changing the sea frequently, and at the same time, the economic burden of frequent seawater replacement. Is to reduce.

The 'seawater fish tank circulation system for display' is a water tank provided with an overflow pipe, a bioball tank for purifying the seawater discharged to the overflow pipe, and disposed to store purified seawater discharged to the bioball tank for supplying natural seawater. A sump tank with a water supply pipe, a circulation line arranged to circulate the seawater into the water tank and the sump, a skimmer to filter the impurities by suctioning the seawater from the sump tank, and to discharge the sump into the sump tank. Includes a sterilizer for removing bacteria from seawater connected to a water temperature regulator for controlling and circulation lines, and has a very complicated structure, so it is limited to be installed in a general home or office.

In addition, as in the conventional water tank water circulation system described later, there is a problem that noise is generated by the water falling from the overflow pipe to the sump tank through the bioball tank.

Another conventional water tank water circulation system will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

This conventional water tank water circulation system is a simplified structure than the prior art described above.

As shown in FIG. 1, the conventional water tank water circulation system includes a main water tank 1 and a sump tank 3 in which an overflow portion 5 is installed, and contaminated water in the main water tank 1 is overloaded. The sump is discharged to the sump tank 3 through the flow part 5, and the sump tank 3 purifies the contaminated water and supplies it back to the main water tank 1, whereby a water circulation is performed.

As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the overflow portion 5, both side edges are coupled to the inner partition of the main tank (see Figure 1), the lower end is coupled to the bottom of the main tank to form a predetermined space The inner box 5a made of glass, the outer box 5a and the inner box 5a, which are spaced apart from the inner box 5a by a predetermined distance to surround the inner box 5a, and have a longitudinal foreign matter removal hole H formed on one surface thereof. It is installed in the space formed by 5a) and includes a first pipe (5c) and the second pipe (5d) for discharging the water in the main tank to the sump tank (see Fig. 1). The height of the second pipe 5d is formed higher than the height of the first pipe 5c.

The water level of the main tank (water level 1) is maintained higher than the inner level (water level 2) of the inner box 5a. If the water is continuously supplied from the sump tank, the water level of the main tank (water level 1) becomes higher, so that the water Since the inner box 5a is introduced into the inner box 5a beyond the outer box 5b, the inner water level (water level 2) of the inner box 5a is also higher, and the introduced water is discharged back into the sump tank through the second pipe 5d.

Basically, water is discharged through the first pipe 5c having a low height, but when the water level inside the inner box 5a becomes excessively high, the water is discharged not only to the first pipe 5c but also to the second pipe 5d. As a result, the height difference between the first pipe 5c and the second pipe 5d is about three times higher.

However, the conventional water tank water circulation system including the overflow portion 5 has various problems.

First, there is a problem that noise is generated by the difference in height between the water level (water level 1) of the main water tank and the inner water level (water level 2) in the process of water flowing into the inner box 5a.

Second, when an emergency such as a power failure occurs, water is not supplied from the sump tank to the main water tank and only water in the inner box 5a is discharged to the sump tank through the first pipe 5c. That is, water equal to the difference between the water level (water level 2) in the upper end of the first pipe 5c and the inner box 5a is discharged to the sump tank. The higher the water level (water level 2) inside the inner box 5a, the higher the power failure. Since the amount of water discharged during the increase is likely to cause water overflow of the sump tank, in order to prevent this, the inner box 5a and the outer box 5b should be made smaller, but the basic installed in the inner box Since the size of the piping material must be secured, the minimum size must be secured.

Third, the overflow part 5 including such an inner box 5a, an outer box 5b, etc. is installed, so that the whole aesthetics of the tank is lowered, especially when the main tank size is small, such an overflow part 5 ) Has a problem that visual recognition is more prominent and the aesthetics are lowered.

Fourth, due to the presence of the overflow portion 5 in the main tank, there is a problem that the water flow inside the main tank is not smooth.

Fifth, there is a problem to periodically look inside the overflow section 5, and adjust the water level inside the main tank.

Sixth, since the inner box 5a, the outer box 5b, separate first pipe 5c and second pipe 5d are required, there is a problem that the cost increases.

Seventh, since the water inside the main tank flows beyond the outer box (5b), because the flow of water flow near the bottom of the main tank is not smooth, the sludge formed in the bottom of the main tank, such as sludge formed in the longitudinal direction of the foreign material removal hole (H) As well as difficult to express the function, there is a problem that the replacement is difficult.

It should be understood that the foregoing description of the background art is merely for the purpose of promoting an understanding of the background of the present invention and is not to be construed as adhering to the prior art already known to those skilled in the art.
