However, it is difficult for people in deserts, islands, swamps and other areas that lack fresh water resources, as well as those involved in patrols, scientific research, grazing and other production activities, to obtain fresh water at any time. In addition, due to the lack of basic supporting conditions such as transportation, electricity, and technology in water-scarce areas, large-scale seawater or brackish water desalination systems cannot meet the above-mentioned freshwater preparation requirements. Given that areas with a shortage of fresh water often have abundant solar energy resources, it is entirely possible to use solar energy to drive small seawater desalination devices to achieve local water extraction and low-cost water production.

In order to improve the application defects of traditional solar distiller, it is necessary to improve the solar distiller's energy supply mode, floor space, thermal energy utilization efficiency, and reduce heat dissipation losses, so as to provide the possibility for large-scale application of small solar desalination equipment.

[0024] Beneficial effects:
[0025] (1) The preheating seawater cylinder and the salt water separation part of the present invention are combined into one, and the potential energy of seawater can be used to realize the gravity water inflow of seawater, saving power drive energy consumption. At the same time, the solar energy absorbed by the preheating seawater cylinder is absorbed by the seawater, thereby increasing the water inlet temperature. The condensation latent heat released by the water vapor in the seawater feed pipe during condensation is also absorbed by the seawater in the seawater feed pipe, thereby promoting the condensation of water vapor and improving the water production rate of the seawater distillation device.
[0026] (2) The seawater feed pipe of the present invention is spirally wrapped around the outer wall of the condensing sleeve, thereby absorbing the latent heat of condensation of water vapor and raising the temperature of the feed seawater. After entering the device, the seawater feed pipe continues to spirally wrap around the outer wall of the heating water tank to continue to raise the temperature of the feed seawater, thereby shortening the startup time of the device and facilitating an increase in the fresh water production.
[0027] (3) The orientation and inclination angle of the flat-plate solar collector used in the present invention are pre-set according to the exposure time and angle of sunlight, which can not only fully absorb solar energy, but also provide shade for the condensing sleeve to prevent the condensing sleeve from being heated up by direct sunlight, thereby increasing the temperature difference between the evaporation and condensation surfaces of the distillation device, enhancing the driving force for heat and mass transfer of water vapor, and facilitating rapid evaporation and condensation of water vapor.
[0028] (4) The present invention hinges the flat-plate solar collector on the outer wall of the condensing sleeve. The installation angle of the flat-plate solar collector in space is adjustable and can be moved in time according to the season and ambient temperature. The installation area requirement on the ground is low and the occupancy is small, which significantly improves the applicability.
[0029] (5) The present invention arranges water seal elbows between the fresh water collecting pipe and the concentrated sea water pipe and the condensing sleeve, respectively, to prevent the internal water vapor pressure of the distillation device from being high and overflowing the distillation device during operation, thereby causing heat energy loss and loss of fresh water.
[0030] (6) The heating water tank of the present invention is also equipped with an electric auxiliary heating element, which can switch between solar energy supply and electric energy supply according to weather conditions and fresh water demand.
[0031] (7) The present invention can use multiple distillation devices in series and / or in parallel, which is conducive to the modular application of fresh water production. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
