Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligent device for using a submarine to drive a target head to clean up sediment, and belongs to the technical field of coral reef ecological restoration. It includes sand storage platform, anchor chain, anchor block, sand pump, sand conveying pipe, connecting pipe, submersible, target head control panel, lifting rod, water distribution pipe, inner cylinder, outer cylinder, blade, pumping pump, water conveying pipe , a water inlet, and a distance sensor, characterized in that: the water pump is used to extract the seawater, and the seawater passes through the height-adjustable target head unit to form a jet flow to suspend the sediment, and the suspended sediment is pumped through the The sand pump is pumped to a sand storage platform with a sand-water separation system. The invention combines the hydraulic lifting technology and the jet principle to provide a movable device for cleaning the sediment on the coral reef. The device can effectively adapt to the uneven terrain of the coral reef, and achieve the purpose of quickly treating the problem of sediment coverage of the coral reef.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coral reef ecological restoration, in particular to a device for cleaning up sediment on coral reefs. Background technique [0002] Coral reefs are formed by polyp skeletons composed of calcium carbonate during the deposition process of hundreds to thousands of years, and are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical shallow sea areas; in my country, they are common in the South China Sea Islands, Hainan, Taiwan, Guangdong and Guangxi coasts. Coral reef topography usually consists of a fore-reef slope connecting the deep seabed and a horizontal reef flat extending to the coast, and a raised reef cap may also exist between the fore-reef slope and the reef flat. [0003] According to statistics, the total area of ​​coral reefs in the world today is about 284,300 square kilometers, and the number of people in the world who directly or indirectly depend on coral reef systems for survival has reached abou...
