Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a renewable energy driven aquaponics farming system that facilitates coordinated growth and maintenance of plant and aquatic organisms in an automated, and self-regulating manner. More specifically the system addresses efficient resource management by enabling controlled environmental conditions, regulated nutrient distribution, and systematic monitoring of biological parameters, thereby enhancing sustainability by minimizing manual intervention, and maintaining ecological balance between plant and aquatic life.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Growing plants and caring for fish are two separate tasks that require constant attention and effort. Traditionally, gardeners need to water their plants regularly, adjust the nutrients in the soil, and ensure they get enough sunlight. Meanwhile, fish tanks need proper care too, such as maintaining water quality, feeding the fish, and cleaning the tank. People often struggle to manage both tasks at once, especially when trying to keep everything in balance. The process might be time-consuming and wasteful, with water, nutrients, and energy not always used efficiently. On top of this, the two activities usually take up a lot of space and require different systems. This creates extra work for people who want to maintain healthy plants and fish without constantly managing separate systems. Hence, a better solution is needed to make the tasks easier to care for both, while making the best use of resources and reducing unnecessary waste.

[0003] Early forms of aquaponics, such as the Chinese and Aztec farming practices, involved small-scale systems where fish waste was used to fertilize crops. These systems were extremely simple and involved minimal industrial equipment’s. The method was effective, but it lacked efficiency and required significant human labour to maintain balance. So, people also use mechanized pumps, filtration systems, and rudimentary water control systems to stabilize the water flow between the fish tanks and plants. Early mechanical equipment’s were crude, and there was a reliance on manual operation.

Uno development board.

[0005] KR20230172053A discloses about a invention that includes a vertical aquaponics smart farm system according to the present invention comprises: a growth room having an internal space for farming fish and cultivating crops and equipped with an air temperature sensor and a humidity sensor; a constant temperature and humidity air conditioning unit supplying conditioned air from the outside of the growth room to maintain the internal space within a set temperature and humidity range; a fish farming tank provided in the internal space and equipped with a pH sensor, an ammonia detection sensor, a nitrate detection sensor, a DO detection sensor, and a water temperature detection sensor; a cultivation tank which is provided in two layers on one side of the fish farming tank and in which water supplied from the fish farming tank is circulated while passing through each layer to form a space for cultivating crops; a feed supply means which is provided on one side of the fish tank and in which feed supply is controlled through a feed supplier according to a cycle set by a feed supply control unit; an oxygen supply and dissolution means provided on one side of the fish framing tank and including an oxygen generator, a dissolver, and an oxygen supply control unit so that high-purity oxygen is supplied to water passing through the fish farming tank and the cultivation tank to improve the amount of dissolved oxygen; a lighting means provided at the cultivation tank on each layer to provide light necessary for the growth of crops with an illuminance controlled by a lighting control unit according to a set control section; and a communication hub for receiving detection information from a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a pH sensor, an ammonia detection sensor, a nitrate sensor, a DO sensor, and a water temperature detection sensor and transmitting the received information to a monitoring server. According to the present invention, system maintenance is easy.

[0006] Conventionally, many systems have been developed that are capable of performing aquaponics farming. However, these systems fail to automatically regulate environmental parameters such as water quality, nutrient delivery, and temperature, which deteriorates the growth conditions for both plants and aquatic species. Additionally, these existing systems also lack the ability to enables automatic adjustment of plant cultivation units based on environmental factors like light intensity, angle, or plant development stage.

[0007] In order to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, there exists a need in the art to develop a system that requires to facilitate automatic regulation of environmental parameters such as water quality, nutrient delivery, and temperature, thereby ensuring optimal growth conditions for both plant and aquatic species. In addition, the developed system also needs to enable the automatic adjustment of the alignment and placement of plant cultivation units in response to specific environmental parameters, such as the intensity and angle of natural light, or the developmental phase of the plants, in order to maximize exposure and promote uniform growth.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0018] The following description includes the preferred best mode of one embodiment of the present invention. It will be clear from this description of the invention that the invention is not limited to these illustrated embodiments but that the invention also includes a variety of modifications and embodiments thereto. Therefore, the present description should be seen as illustrative and not limiting.

[0019] In any embodiment described herein, the open-ended terms "comprising," "comprises,” and the like (which are synonymous with "including," "having” and "characterized by") may be replaced by the respective partially closed phrases "consisting essentially of," consists essentially of," and the like or the respective closed phrases "consisting of," "consists of, the like.

[0020] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.

[0021] The present invention relates to a renewable energy driven aquaponics farming system that provides a means to support the simultaneous growth of vegetation and aquatic organisms in a compact, well-regulated environment, ensuring efficient resource use, while minimizing human intervention through fully automated monitoring processes.

[0022] Referring to Figure 1 and 2, a perspective view of a renewable energy driven aquaponics farming system and a perspective view of a pot associated with the system are illustrated, respectively, comprising a platform 101 configured with a plurality of stabilizer assembly affixed to lateral lower surfaces, each comprising a L-shaped shaft 102, a pad 103 is disposed at a terminal end of each of the shaft 102, a pair of rectangular belt drive assemblies 104 vertically disposed on opposing lateral sides of the platform 101, a series of horizontally extending racks 105 equipped with multiple planting pots 106.

[0023] Figure 1 and 2 further illustrates a motorized sleeve 107 attached with a link, integrated in between the belt drive assembly and the racks 105, a multi-sectioned chamber 108 arranged on the platform 101, a plurality of fish tanks 109 connected to the chamber 108, a container 110 installed with the fish tank 109, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 111 mounted on the platform 101, an extendable L-shaped rod 201 installed with each of the pot 106, an expandable flap 202 attached with a free-end of the rod 201, a sensing module 112 installed in the fish tank 109, a motorized iris lid 113 installed underneath a vessel 114 attached with each of the fish tank 109, a wind vane 115 installed on the platform 101.

[0024] The system disclosed herein comprising a platform 101 that is structurally configured with multiple stabilizer assemblies positioned along its lateral lower surfaces. Each stabilizer assembly comprises an L-shaped shaft 102 operatively coupled with a motorized hinge joint that enables controlled angular adjustment. A pad 103 is affixed at the terminal end of each respective shaft 102, with the pad 103 positioned to make direct contact with the underlying ground surface. This configuration ensures the platform 101 remains balanced and stable by compensating for uneven surfaces and providing structural equilibrium during both stationary and operational states of the system. The motorized hinge joint allows dynamic adjustment based on load or environmental conditions.

[0025] The hinge joint mentioned above is preferably a motorized hinge joint that involves the use of an electric motor to control the movement of the hinge and the connected component. The hinge joint provides the pivot point around which the movement occurs. The motor is the core component responsible for generating the rotational motion. It converts the electrical energy into mechanical energy, producing the necessary torque that drives the hinge joint. As the motor rotates, the motorized hinge joint tilts shaft 102 and provides controlled angular adjustment to the shaft 102 on environmental conditions.

[0026] A pair of belt drive assemblies 104 are vertically mounted on opposing lateral sides of the platform 101. Each of the belt drive assemblies 104 is structured to support a plurality of horizontally oriented racks 105, with each rack 105 accommodating multiple pots 106. The belt drive assemblies 104 are operatively linked to the microcontroller, which receives user-generated initiation signals through a user interface installed within a computing unit. The computing unit is wirelessly communicable with the platform 101. Upon receipt of such signals, the microcontroller actuates the respective belt drive assemblies 104 to facilitate vertical translation of the racks 105 for the purpose of operational positioning.

[0027] The belt drive assemblies 104 function by converting rotational motion generated by a motor into vertical linear movement of the attached racks 105. Upon receiving control signals from the microcontroller, the motor engages a pulley arrangement that drives the belt loop. As the belt rotates around the pulleys, the connected racks 105, mounted on brackets or linkages secured to the belt, are moved either upward or downward depending on the command. This motion allows for vertical adjustment of the pots 106 for sunlight exposure, maintenance access, or automated watering, while maintaining synchronized movement between both sides to ensure stability and alignment.

[0028] A motion sensor is operatively installed in each rack 105 and electronically synchronized with the imaging unit 111. The motion sensor is configured to detect translational movement of the planting pots 106 along the respective rack 105. The motion sensor operates by continuously monitoring changes in position or movement of planting pots 106 along the rack 105 using embedded detection technology. When a pot 106 begins to move, the sensor detects variations in displacement or acceleration. These changes are converted into electrical signals, which are transmitted to the imaging unit 111. The imaging unit 111 processes this input alongside visual data to determine direction, speed, and location of the pot 106. Based on the combined data, the system ensures positional accuracy by initiating corrective actions through the control unit, maintaining alignment and preventing destabilization during operational adjustments of the cultivation setup.

[0029] A motorized sleeve 107 is affixed to a link, which is strategically positioned between the belt drive assembly and the racks 105. This sleeve 107 is controlled by the microcontroller in response to the rotational motion of the belt drive. Upon activation, the motorized sleeve 107 facilitates necessary adjustments in both angular and translational movement of the racks 105. These movements are essential for the proper reconfiguration of the spatial positioning of the planting pots 106, optimizing their exposure to sunlight. Additionally, the motorized sleeve 107 ensures that the stability of the planting pots 106 is maintained during vertical transits, supporting uniform growth conditions.

[0030] The motorized sleeve 107 upon activation moves along its link, adjusting the position of the racks 105. This movement might be both angular (rotating the racks 105) and translational (shifting the racks 105 linearly), depending on the required adjustment. As the sleeve 107 shifts, sleeve 107 realigns the planting pots 106 for optimal sunlight exposure. Additionally, the sleeve 107 operation ensures that the pots 106 remain stable during vertical movement, preventing tilting or dislodging, which is crucial for the uniform distribution of light and nutrients for the plants.

[0031] A multi-sectioned chamber 108 is configured on the platform 101, segmented by vertically mounted plates. This chamber 108 is designed to store different water compositions sourced from multiple fish tanks 109, with the water being transferred through a pump. The pump is activated based on commands processed by the microcontroller, which is connected to the computing unit. The computing unit processes user inputs and sends signals to the microcontroller to activate the pump. Upon activation, the pump propels water through a conduit, directing it towards the appropriate sections of the chamber 108, allowing for efficient distribution and management of water for optimal plant and fish care.

[0032] The pump operates based on commands received from the microcontroller, which is interfaced with the computing unit. When activated, the pump begins to draw water from the fish tanks 109 and moves it through a designated conduit system. The water is directed to different sections of the multi-sectioned chamber 108, based on the design and segmentation of the chamber 108. The pump ensures a continuous flow of water, allowing for efficient nutrient distribution to the plants. The microcontroller ensures the pump operates at the required intervals and flow rates to maintain the balance between plant and fish tank 109 needs.

[0033] A container 110, installed with the fish tank 109, incorporates dual expandable conduits equipped with inline filtration units. The container 110 facilitates the management of bidirectional water flow to and from the fish tank 109, enabling the circulation and reuse of nutrients. As the planting pots 106 are translated, water is transferred to each of the pots 106 through a duct that has iris-operated apertures. These apertures open and close to dispense water into the pots 106. Each planting pot 106 is filled with gravel and stones, providing root anchorage while supporting microbial bio-filtration of the nutrient-rich water circulating from the chamber 108.

[0034] The inline filtration units are integrated within the conduits, positioned to filter water as it flows bidirectionally between the fish tank 109 and the planting pots 106. As water circulates through the conduits, the filtration units trap particulates, organic matter, and excess nutrients, ensuring only clean, nutrient-balanced water reaches the plants. The filtration process works continuously, preventing clogging and maintaining water clarity. As water passes through the units, beneficial microorganisms attached to the filtration medium help break down organic waste, improving the water quality for both plant roots and fish health.

[0035] Each fish tank 109 is configured to contain aquatic species specifically chosen based on the nutrient composition of their biological waste, which is beneficial for plant growth. The nutrients excreted by these species are carried through a bidirectional flow of water that circulates between the fish tanks 109 and the plant cultivation units. This continuous water exchange enables efficient nutrient transfer while simultaneously ensuring optimal hydration of the plants. The use of a closed-loop bidirectional water system minimizes the need for external water input, thereby significantly reducing overall water consumption and promoting resource-efficient operation of the integrated aquaponic environment.

[0036] The microcontroller is operatively configured to regulate the return flow of filtered water back into the respective fish tanks 109, thereby establishing and maintaining a closed-loop circulation system. Upon completion of nutrient delivery and plant hydration processes, the water is directed through integrated filtration units to remove impurities and maintain quality standards. The microcontroller monitors system parameters and activates appropriate actuators to control the directional flow of this treated water, ensuring it is efficiently recirculated into the fish tanks 109.

[0037] The platform 101 is installed with an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 111 which is mounted on the platform 101. The imaging unit 111 disclosed herein comprises of an image capturing arrangement including a set of lenses that captures multiple images of the surroundings and the captured images are stored within memory of the imaging unit 111 in form of an optical data. The imaging unit 111 also comprises of the processor which processes the captured images.

[0038] This pre-processing involves tasks such as noise reduction, image stabilization, or color correction. The processed data is fed into AI protocols for analysis which utilizes machine learning techniques, such as deep learning neural networks, to extract meaningful information from the visual data which are processed by the microcontroller to determine position of planted produce on the plants.

[0039] Based on the determined position, the microcontroller actuates an extendable L-shaped rod 201 installed with each of the pot 106. The rod 201 is pneumatically actuated, wherein the pneumatic arrangement of the rod 201 comprises of a cylinder incorporated with an air piston and the air compressor, wherein the compressor controls discharging of compressed air into the cylinder via air valves which further leads to the extension/retraction of the piston. The piston is attached to the telescopic rod 201, wherein the extension/retraction of the piston corresponds to the extension/retraction of the rod 201. The actuated compressor allows extension of the rod 201 to position an expandable flap 202 underneath the produce to support.

[0040] The flap 202 is embedded with a drawer arrangement that consists of multiple plates that are overlapped to each other with a sliding unit, wherein upon actuation of the multiple plates and sliding unit by the microcontroller, the motor in the sliding unit starts rotating a wheel coupled via a shaft 102 in clockwise/anticlockwise direction providing a movement to the slider in the drawer arrangement to extend/retract as per the dimension of the produce and gets underneath the produce to support.

[0041] The dimension of the produce is determined via a laser sensor installed on the pot 106 and synced with the imaging unit 111. The laser sensor mentioned herein consists of an emitter, and a receiver. The sensor emits a light towards the surface of produce and when the laser beam hits the surface of the produce, the beam reflects back towards the receiver of the sensor. Upon detection of reflected beam by the sensor, the sensor precisely measures the time taken for the laser beam to travel to and back from the surface of the produce. The sensor then calculates the dimension of the produce and the calculated dimension is then converted into electrical signal, in the form of current, and send to a microcontroller. The microcontroller analyzes the data and detect dimension of the produce.

[0042] A temperature sensor is positioned within each segregated section of the container 110 to facilitate continuous surveillance of the thermal conditions of water that returns from the cultivation pots 106. The sensor operates under the control of the microcontroller, which periodically receives temperature data. The temperature sensor operates by detecting variations in the thermal energy of the water returning from the planting pots 106. The sensor converts the measured heat levels into corresponding electrical signals using thermoresistive properties. These signals are transmitted to the microcontroller, which interprets the voltage changes and computes the actual temperature values.

[0043] The microcontroller compares each received temperature value against a predefined threshold range that is individually designated for each specific section. Upon determination that the monitored temperature in any section either exceeds or falls below the assigned threshold range, the microcontroller is programmed to initiate activation of a Peltier unit associated with the respective section.

[0044] The Peltier unit consists of two semiconductor plates, known as Peltier plates, connected in series and sandwiched between two ceramic plates. When an electric current is applied to the Peltier unit, one side of the unit absorbs heat from its surroundings, while the other side releases heat, thereby providing an optimal heating/cooling effect in view of maintaining appropriate temperature habitable for each housed fishes in respective fish tanks 109.

[0045] A sensing module 112 is operatively positioned within the fish tank 109 and comprises the turbidity sensor, the pH sensor, and the thermal camera. The turbidity sensor is configured to monitor particulate concentration within the water to assess clarity, while the pH sensor measures hydrogen ion activity to determine the acidity or alkalinity of the aquatic environment. The thermal camera is programmed to capture real-time thermal imagery to detect behavioural patterns and potential stress indicators in aquatic species based on temperature anomalies. Data acquired from the sensors is transmitted to the microcontroller for real-time analysis of water quality and aquatic health conditions.

[0046] The turbidity sensor operates by projecting a focused light beam into the water and measuring the intensity of light scattered by suspended solids. A photodetector, placed at a specific angle, collects the scattered light. The extent of scattering correlates with the amount of particulate matter, which the sensor converts into an electrical signal. This signal is sent to the microcontroller, which interprets it to determine water clarity. If the detected turbidity surpasses a predetermined threshold, the microcontroller initiates corrective action or triggers an alert to ensure the aquatic environment remains within optimal clarity standards for effective system performance.

[0047] The pH sensor utilizes a glass electrode that responds to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the water. When submerged, the electrode produces a voltage proportional to the pH level, which is then converted into a digital signal. This data is continuously transmitted to the microcontroller for real-time analysis. If the detected pH value deviates from a defined range, the microcontroller initiates appropriate responses, such as adjusting water composition or notifying the user. Continuous monitoring by the pH sensor ensures the aquatic environment remains chemically balanced, supporting the health of aquatic species and maintaining nutrient quality for plant use.

[0048] The thermal camera detects infrared radiation emitted by the water and aquatic species within the tank 109. This radiation is converted into a thermal image or map that reflects temperature distribution across the environment. The processing unit analyzes these images to identify anomalies, such as unexpected hot or cold zones, which may indicate fish stress, illness, or other behavioural issues. When such irregularities are detected, the microcontroller is alerted for further action.

[0049] In the event that suboptimal aquatic conditions are identified—such as compromised water quality or behavioural indicators in the aquatic organisms—the microcontroller transmits a wireless alert to the computing unit, prompting the user to initiate activation of the food dispensing unit. This unit includes a motorized iris lid 113 affixed beneath a vessel 114 associated with each respective fish tank 109, operable to open or close for the controlled release of feed into the corresponding tank 109.

[0050] The introduction of food is configured to stimulate fish movement within the aquatic environment, thereby enhancing overall fish health. The induced movement further contributes to the uniform distribution of biological waste and nutrient content throughout the system, facilitating improved nutrient availability and circulation to the plant cultivation areas and promoting integrated system efficiency.

[0051] The imaging herein captures and analyze visual data pertaining to individual plant cultivation units, wherein the imaging unit 111 is programmed to identify specific plant types, assess their health status, and determine corresponding water requirements. In conjunction with this, the imaging unit 111 further evaluates nutrient compatibility based on visual indicators and correlates such data with real-time inputs received from the sensing module 112. The data is communicated to the microcontroller, which processes the information to recommend appropriate pairings between plant types and aquatic species housed within the system, for optimizing mutual nutrient exchange and enhancing overall system efficiency.

[0052] A wind vane 115 is operatively mounted on the platform 101 and configured to harness ambient wind energy. The wind energy is directed to a compact turbine generator functionally integrated with the wind vane 115 for conversion into electrical energy. The electrical energy so generated is subsequently stored in a battery electrically linked to the generator. The stored energy is then distributed to and utilized by various electronically controlled components associated with the platform 101 to facilitate autonomous operation, thereby ensuring energy self-sufficiency of the system under varying environmental conditions.

[0053] The wind vane 115 functions by rotating freely on a vertical axis, aligning itself with the direction of the wind. As wind flows across the vane 115 surface, the broader surface area of the tail end catches the wind and causes the narrower end to point into the wind direction. This alignment enables the directional axis to transmit mechanical orientation data. In this arrangement, the mechanical motion of the aligned vane 115 is mechanically or electronically linked to the turbine assembly, positioning it optimally to receive and convert wind energy. Thus, the wind vane 115 passively controls directional input for effective energy capture.

[0054] The turbine generator operates by converting kinetic energy from the wind, captured through the directional input provided by the wind vane 115, into mechanical rotational motion using turbine blades. As the wind rotates the blades, this mechanical motion drives an internal rotor within the generator, which is encased by a stator. The movement of the rotor relative to the stator generates an electromagnetic field, inducing an electric current through the stator windings. The resulting alternating current is then directed into a battery storage unit, where it is stored for later use in powering various electronically controlled functions within the platform 101.

[0055] Moreover, the battery is associated with the system for powering up electrical and electronically operated components associated with the system and supplying a voltage to the components. The battery used herein is preferably a Lithium-ion battery which is a rechargeable unit that demands power supply after getting drained. The battery stores the electric current derived from an external source in the form of chemical energy, which when required by the electronic component of the system, derives the required power from the battery for proper functioning of the system.

[0056] The present invention works in the best manner, where the platform 101 configured with the pair of stabilizer assembly affixed to lateral lower surfaces, each comprising the L-shaped shaft 102 integrated with the motorized hinge joint. The pad 103 is disposed at the terminal end of each of the shaft 102 to establish contact with the ground surface for providing support to the platform 101 and maintain structural equilibrium of the platform 101. The pair of rectangular belt drive assemblies 104 vertically disposed on opposing lateral sides of the platform 101. Each configured to support the series of horizontally extending racks 105 equipped with multiple planting pots 106. The motion sensor detects translation of the pots 106. Based on which the microcontroller regulates operation of the motorized sleeve 107 and links, to ensure the pots 106 are stabilized on the rack 105 throughout use. The motorized sleeve 107 ensures correct angular and translational adjustments, for facilitating spatial reconfiguration to optimize sunlight exposure and maintain stability of the planting pots 106 during vertical transits. The multi-sectioned chamber 108 segmented via vertically mounted plates to store different water compositions originating from the plurality of fish tanks 109 through the pump. The pump propel water through the conduit towards associated sections. The container 110 contains the dual expandable conduits comprising inline filtration units that manages bidirectional water flow to and from the water tank 109 for nutrient circulation and reuse. And during translation of the pots 106, the water is transferred to each of the planting pots 106 through the duct having the plurality of iris operated apertures, that is opened/closed for dispensing water in the pots 106. Each of the planting pot 106 contains gravel and stones for root anchorage and microbial bio filtration of nutrient-rich aquaponic water circulated from the chamber 108.

[0057] In continuation, each of the fish tank 109 houses species selected for their nutrient contribution, the nutrients are provided to the plants through bidirectional flow of the water, thus reducing water usage. The microcontroller ensures that water is cycled back to the fish tanks 109 after filtration, maintaining the closed-loop arrangement. Thereafter the artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 111 determine position of planted produce on the plants. Based on the determined position the extendable L-shaped rod 201 extends to place the expandable flap 202 underneath the produce to support. Then the temperature sensor monitors temperature of water received from the pots 106. In case the monitored temperature exceeds/recedes the threshold value the Peltier unit provides the optimal heating/cooling effect in view of maintaining appropriate temperature habitable for each housed fishes in respective fish tanks 109. Afterwards the sensing module 112 containing the turbidity sensor, the pH sensor and the thermal camera monitors quality of water, pH levels along with detecting fish behaviour. And in case suboptimal conditions are detected, such as improper water quality and fish stress, the microcontroller generates the wireless notification to the computing unit for prompting the user to command for activation of food dispensing unit, which includes the motorized iris lid 113 that get opened/closed for dispensing food in each tank 109, to encourage movement in the tank 109. Further the imaging unit 111 is configured to monitor water demand per plant type, identifying plant health, and assessing nutrient compatibility, based on which the microcontroller recommends optimal fish-plant pairings based on real-time data generated through the sensing module 112. Furthermore, the wind vane 115 captures ambient wind energy, which is converted into electricity via the compact turbine generator, while the electrical energy is stored in the batter configured with the generator, supplying energy to the platform 101 electronically controlled components.
