Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of protein separators, in particular to a protein separator capable of preventing blockage. Background Art

[0002] In scenarios such as seawater factory farming, aquatic nurseries, and oceanariums, the density of aquatic organisms is high, and there are a lot of excrement and leftover bait. Protein skimmers are key equipment for maintaining water quality. They can use the principle of buoyancy to make the bubbles move upward with the bubbles and accumulate on the upper water surface. As microbubbles are continuously generated, the accumulated bubbles are continuously pushed to the collection device at the top, collected, and then discharged.

[0003] When existing protein skimmers are in use, various impurities will gradually accumulate inside. These impurities will block the outward discharge of bubbles, resulting in more frequent cleaning and maintenance, which increases labor costs and time loss, and also reduces the separation efficiency of the protein skimmer.

[0004] Therefore, a protein skimmer that prevents clogging is proposed, which can automatically clean the internal blockage and solve the problem that the discharge of bubbles after the accumulation of impurities inside affects the separation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the problem that various impurities will gradually accumulate inside the protein skimmer during use, these impurities will block the outward discharge of bubbles, resulting in more frequent cleaning and maintenance, increasing labor costs and time loss, and reducing the separation efficiency of the protein skimmer, therefore, a protein skimmer that prevents clogging is proposed.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is: a protein separator that prevents clogging, comprising a reaction separation tank, a water inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe, a collecting cylinder, an anti-clogging cleaning component and a first air pump; the water inlet pipe is installed at the left end of the reaction separation tank; the water outlet pipe is installed at the right end of the reaction separation tank; the collecting cylinder is installed at the upper end of the reaction separation tank; the anti-clogging cleaning component is arranged inside the collecting cylinder; the first air pump is arranged on the side of the reaction separation tank; the anti-clogging cleaning component comprises a spiral coil, an aeration hole and a flow guide cover; the spiral coil is arranged inside the reaction separation tank; the spiral coil is connected to the output port pipe of the first air pump; aeration holes are opened inside the spiral coil; and the upper end of the spiral coil is provided with a flow guide cover.

When the bubble output mesh cover has slow airflow to the bubbles, the electric telescopic rod is started to make the air guide ring slide down along the limit clamping ring plate, and the gas is generated by the second air pump and then introduced into the air guide ring through the hose and discharged from the air port in the air guide ring. The aperture on the surface of the bubble output mesh cover can be backflushed, and the impurity particles blocked in the aperture can be removed, so that the aperture maintains smooth permeability and has the effect of dredging and preventing blockage.

[0008] Preferably, the anti-clogging cleaning component also includes a conveying inner tube, a built-in fine filter plate, a connecting ring, a debris barrier, a limit clamp plate, an air guide ring, an air port, a bubble output mesh cover, an electric telescopic rod, a second air pump and a discharge pipe; the upper end of the guide cover is fixedly connected to the conveying inner tube.

[0009] Preferably, a built-in fine filter plate is provided inside the inner delivery tube; and a connecting ring is provided on the outer side of the lower end of the inner delivery tube.

[0010] Preferably, a debris retaining net is provided at the lower end of the connecting collar; a limiting clamping ring plate is provided on the inner wall of the collecting cylinder; and an air guide ring is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting clamping ring plate.

[0011] Preferably, an air blowing port is provided in an annular shape on the inner side of the air guide ring; a bubble output mesh cover is fixedly connected to the upper end of the collecting tube; and an electric telescopic rod is installed on the upper end of the collecting tube.

[0013] Preferably, the output end hose of the second air pump is connected to the inside of the air guide ring; and a discharge pipe is provided at the side end of the collecting cylinder.

[0014] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0015] During the use of the protein skimmer, the annularly arranged aeration holes in the spiral coil can improve the uniformity of bubble generation and facilitate the bubbles to enter the collection cylinder faster. The connecting ring and the debris retaining net connected to it can prevent larger volumes of impurities from entering the conveying inner tube. The built-in fine filter plate can perform secondary filtration to reduce the probability of blockage. When the bubble output mesh cover has slow flowability to the bubbles, start the electric telescopic rod to make the air guide ring slide down along the limit clamping ring plate, use the second air pump to generate gas and then use the hose to introduce it into the air guide ring, and discharge it from the air port in the air guide ring. The aperture on the surface of the bubble output mesh cover can be backflushed, which can remove impurity particles blocked in the aperture, so that the aperture maintains smooth permeability and has the effect of dredging and preventing blockage.
