Patent number: 11173457Abstract: A water aeration system powers an air pump held in an encasement with a solar panel mounted directly or indirectly to the encasement or to the mounting pole supporting the encasement above a ground surface. An air conduit directs pumped air to one or more disc diffusers submerged in the body of water to be aerated. The disc diffuser(s) are supported by a floating platform that is suspended from a buoy or float so that the disc diffuser(s) are held at a desired depth below the water surface.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2020Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: Linne Industries, LLCInventors: Craig Burton, Sandra Burton

Patent number: 10639596Abstract: A water aeration system (10) encases an air pump (60) and a solar power controller (62) in an encasement structure (34) with one or more air permeable sidewalls (42; 44). The encasement structure is mounted at or near a top end of a mounting pole (32). A solar panel (50) is mounted directly or indirectly to the encasement or to the mounting pole at or near the top end of the mounting pole, optionally with screens (80, 82, 84, 86) connected to the backside of the solar panel. An air conduit (20) is threaded through a hollow channel in the mounting pole or structure associated therewith, and then underground and/or under water for joining to an immersed diffuser (12).Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2018Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: Linne Industries, LLCInventors: Craig Burton, Sandra Burton

An air conduit (20) is threaded through a hollow channel in the mounting pole or structure associated therewith, and then underground and/or under water for joining to an immersed diffuser (12). The water aeration system operates without a battery or energy accumulator, and is tamper-resistant. The system is protected from tampering where the air pump and controller are inside the encasement structure, the solar panel and encasement structure are mounted several feet above the ground surface, and the conduit between the pump and the diffuser is held inside the mounting pole or structure associated therewith.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2015Publication date: March 16, 2017Applicant: Linne Industries LLCInventors: Craig BURTON, Sandra BURTON
