An outside filter for an aquarium has a housing having an inner chamber, a removable cover for closing the inner chamber of the housing, a supply conduit for supplying water to be filtered into the inner chamber of the housing, a withdrawal conduit for withdrawing the water from the inner chamber of the housing, a motor-operated pump for withdrawing the filtered water, a device for producing a vacuum for aspirating water with air which is contained in the supply conduit during a displacement, the inner chamber of the housing together with the discharge conduit forming a system which communicates with the supply conduit and during the production of the vacuum is hermetically sealingly closed from outside and serves as an evacuatable pressure chamber, the device for producing the vacuum inside the system which is closed.

Outside filter, in particular for aquarium

The covering device for an aquarium, terrarium or like vivarium for living things includes an approximately rectangular frame (13); an upwardly openable cover member (15) pivotally mounted on the frame; a lighting device (17) mounted on the bottom side (16) of the cover member (15); a device for locking and releasing the cover member (15) when it is in a closed position on the frame (13) and a drive mechanism (18) for pivoting the cover member (15) upward automatically automatically to open it when the cover member (15) is released by the locking and releasing device, at least over a predetermined initial pivot angle range. A brake device for braking the action of the drive mechanism can also be provided.

An inner filter for an aquarium has means forming a pump chamber, a filter chamber, a suction opening, and outlet opening, a suction passage which communicates with the pump chamber and the filter chamber and in which water is aspirated through the suction opening, a pressure chamber which communicates with the pump chamber and the outlet opening, a pump wheel, an electric motor having a rotor which drives the pump wheel in the pump chamber and also having a stator and a housing having three releasable and again assembleable segments, the segments including a first segment which accommodates the stator with an electric conductor, a second segment which accommodates the rotor with a bearing axles and bearings and also accommodates the pump wheel, the pump chamber, the filter chamber, the suction passage and the pressure passage, and a third segment which is placeable on the second segment and formed as a cover and has the outlet opening connectable with the pressure passage, the suction opening which is connectable with the filter chamber being provided in the region of one of the third segment and the first segment.
