  • Publication number: 20060130774
    Abstract: A stacking structure for breeding chests includes a plurality of mounting members, a plurality of holding members and a plurality of first bracing rods. The mounting members are detachably coupled on the upper edge of a lower layer breeding chest. Each of the first bracing members is detachably bridged one mounting member and one holding member to support the bottom of a upper layer breeding chest. The holding members are bridged by a plurality of second bracing members in a detachable manner to increase the supporting capability for the upper layer breeding chest. By bridging the mounting members and the holding members, the first bracing rods form an access space therebetween to enable breeders to do feeding, clearing or repairing tasks without removing the upper layer breeding chest.

  • Patent number: 5322622
    Abstract: An improved filtering device for an aquarium tank, particularly a filtering device in which a plurality of "U" notches are formed at equal distance in the rim of the cup, the arc section formed by two notches has a lateral rib and the circular connecting rings in the lower portion of the cup allow the cups of the filtering device to be connected easily, the cup can also be rotated freely after connecting. In addition, the suction tube with the impeller, the filtering cotton and the carbon dioxide guide tube as well as the submerged motor combine to function so that carbon dioxide can be dissolved completely in water. Moreover, more oxygen can be generated inside the aquarium tank for healthier fish and plants, the filtered water through the filtering device according to the present invention becomes pure, crystal clear with a whirling and bubbling action.

  • Patent number: 5294335
    Abstract: An improved filtering device for aquarium tanks and artificial ponds mainly comprises a water injector which is made up of a top cover plate and a water injector base, a multi-layered filtering member and an external shield cup which is used to contain the filtering member with appropriate space wherein the edge of the top cover plate is made to be a thick edge which has an annular slot for an "O" shaped seal washer to be placed on. When the top cover plate and the external shield cup are put together, the thick edge is covered up inside the external shield cup, allowing the "O" shaped seal washer to seal off the internal rim of the external shield cup.

  • Patent number: 4737933
    Abstract: A general purpose register including two input ports and two output ports, each port being addressed by an independent addressing circuit. The general purpose register includes a number of internal registers, and the provision of four independent addresses enables data to be written into two internal registers while data is being read out of two internal registers. The general purpose register also includes circuitry for transferring data from the input ports directly to the output ports without entering the data into the internal registers. Interchanging of bytes of data input words is also accomplished by the general purpose register. The internal registers, the four independent addressing circuits, the data transferring circuitry and additional undedicated circuitry are integrated into a single chip.
