[0052] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods to better reflect the advantages of the present invention. Example

[0053] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a cross-flow microalgae harvesting device comprises a housing 1, a ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 for concentrating microalgae liquid, and a control assembly for making the microalgae liquid flow in the housing 1.

[0054] like Figure 2 and 7 As shown, the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 is composed of four groups of ceramic flat membranes 21 arranged in parallel at equal intervals, and the four groups of ceramic flat membranes 21 are clamped and fixed by four groups of clamping plates 22 provided at the upper and lower ends. The two groups of clamping plates 22 at the upper ends of the four groups of ceramic flat membranes 21 are connected with buoyancy plates 3 for suspending the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 by utilizing buoyancy. The water outlets of the four groups of ceramic flat membranes 21 are connected to the collecting pipe 23. The buoyancy plates 3 are connected to the clamping plates 22 by steel ropes, thereby ensuring that the buoyancy plates 3 and the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 have a certain travel margin when docking, thereby improving the stability of the buoyancy plates 3.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the shell 1 is provided with a trough 11 for accommodating the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 and enabling it to be lifted up and down, and the side walls on both sides of the trough 11 are respectively provided with two groups of lifting guide grooves 12 that are slidably connected with two longitudinal rows of clamps 22, and each row of clamps 22 includes clamps 22 at the upper and lower ends of the ceramic flat membrane 21. The side wall of the shell 1 is provided with a water pump 13 for pumping the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2, and the water pump 13 is connected to the collection pipe 23 through a hose. The hose has a telescopic margin for allowing the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 to slide up and down along the lifting guide groove 12, thereby avoiding the hose from restricting the sliding displacement of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2.

[0056] like Figure 1As shown, the control component is a reflux pipe 4 and a liquid pump 41. One end of the reflux pipe 4 is connected to the water outlet provided on the side wall of the shell 1, and the other end of the reflux pipe 4 is connected to the water inlet provided on the side wall of the shell 1 through the liquid pump 41. The control component has a simple structure and can effectively meet the unidirectional circulation flow of the microalgae liquid in the shell 1.

[0057] The operation method of the above-mentioned cross-flow microalgae harvesting equipment is: start the liquid pump 41 to make the microalgae liquid in the shell 1 form a circulation flow in the shell 1 and the reflux pipe 4, and then start the water pump 13 to pump and discharge the water in the microalgae liquid through the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2, so as to concentrate the microalgae liquid. Example

[0058] This embodiment is basically the same as embodiment 1, except that Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the control component is a support shaft 5 and two groups of lifting parts that are alternately lifted to make the shell 1 swing left and right. The two groups of lifting parts are hydraulic rods 6. The two groups of hydraulic rods 6 are connected to the controller through relays. The setting of the hydraulic rods 6 can meet the driving effect of the shell 1 swinging left and right, thereby realizing the left and right reciprocating circulation of the microalgae liquid in the shell 1. The support shaft 5 is located directly below the shell 1 and is rotatably connected to the bottom of the shell 1. The two groups of lifting parts are respectively located directly below the shell 1 on the left and right sides of the support shaft 5, and the lifting parts are rotatably connected to the shell 1 through the rotating shaft. A group of flow limiting plates 51 are respectively inserted into the shell 1 on the left and right sides of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2. A strip hole 511 is respectively provided at the corresponding gap between the flow limiting plate 51 and each ceramic flat membrane 21 of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2. The control component can make the microalgae liquid in the shell 1 reciprocate left and right. Compared with the setting mode of the reflux pipe 4 and the liquid pump 41, it can effectively reduce the footprint of the device;

[0059] The operation method of the cross-flow microalgae harvesting device is as follows: the two sets of hydraulic rods 6 are controlled to be lifted and lowered alternately by a commercially available PLC controller, so that the shell 1 swings left and right periodically, so that the microalgae liquid flows left and right in the shell 1, and then the water pump 13 is started to pump water in the microalgae liquid through the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2, so as to concentrate the microalgae liquid.

[0060] During the left and right flow of the microalgae liquid, the flow limiting plate 51 reduces the flow speed of the microalgae liquid from one side to the other side, thereby preventing the shell 1 from shaking greatly due to the left and right flow of the microalgae liquid. In addition, through the combined effect of the buoyancy of the buoyancy plate 3 and the gravity of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 itself, the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2 moves up and down along the lifting guide groove 12 during the left and right flow of the microalgae liquid, so that the microalgae liquid in contact with the ceramic flat membrane 21 flows left and right and up and down, thereby further reducing the risk of microalgae in the microalgae liquid clogging the ceramic flat membrane 21. Example

[0061] This embodiment is basically the same as embodiment 2, except that Figure 5 and 6 As shown, the two groups of lifting parts are spring rod 7 and hydraulic control rod 8.

[0062] like Fig.11 As shown, the spring rod 7 includes a spring rod tube 71 and a spring rod main body 72, the spring rod main body 72 is slidably connected to the spring rod tube 71, and a limiting ring 73 is provided at the bottom end of the spring rod main body 72, and the bottom surface of the spring rod main body 72 is connected to the inner bottom surface of the spring rod tube 71 through a spring 74;

[0063] like Fig.12 As shown, the hydraulic control rod 8 includes a hydraulic control rod tube body 81 and a hydraulic control rod main body 82. A piston cavity 811 for the hydraulic control rod main body 82 to slide up and down is provided in the middle and upper part of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81. A liquid injection cavity 812 for injecting liquid into the piston cavity 811 is provided in the lower part of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81. A plugging piece 83 that can be rotatably opened and closed is provided at the opening of the hydraulic control rod main body 82. A piston ring 84 for limiting and sealing is provided at the bottom of the hydraulic control rod main body 82.

[0064] like Fig.13 , 14 As shown in Figures 15, a drain port 821 for releasing the pressure in the hydraulic control rod 8 is provided on the upper side wall of the hydraulic control rod body 82, a block 85 for clamping the block 83 is provided above the plugging piece 83, the block 85 is rotatably embedded in the inner wall of the hydraulic control rod body 82 through a torsion spring, and the clamping end 851 of the block 85 is located in the hydraulic control rod body 82 and clamped with the second clamping groove 831 of the plugging piece 83, the triggering end 852 of the block extends out of the side wall of the hydraulic control rod body 82, a convex block 86 for pressing down the triggering end 852 is provided on the top of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81, and a groove 841 is provided at the position of the piston ring 84 corresponding to the convex block 86.

[0065] like Fig.12As shown, a top block 87 for restoring the plugging piece 83 is provided at the bottom of the piston cavity 811 of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81, and six through holes 88 communicating with the injection cavity 812 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the piston cavity 811 around the top block 87. A magnetic plate 89 for assisting in triggering the plugging piece 83 to open is provided at the opening of the hydraulic control rod body 82, and a magnetic sheet that magnetically repels the magnetic plate 89 is embedded at the position corresponding to the position of the plugging piece 83 and the magnetic plate 89;

[0066] like Figure 6 As shown, a relay water tank 9 for compensating the injection of liquid to the hydraulic control rod 8 is provided at the front side of the water pump 13, the relay water tank 9 is connected to the water pump 13 through a first inlet 91 and a pipeline, the relay water tank 9 is connected to a pump in an external water replenishment area through a second inlet 92 and a pipeline, and the relay water tank 9 is connected to a liquid inlet 813 at the bottom of the hydraulic control rod 8 through an outlet 93 and a pipeline; by setting the relay water tank 9, filtered sewage can be injected through the second inlet 92, and the water flow power of the filtered sewage transported by other water treatment can be utilized, thereby compensating for the driving effect of the hydraulic control rod 8 and achieving an energy-saving effect;

[0067] The spring rod 7 and the hydraulic control rod 8 cooperate with each other to realize the reciprocating lifting and lowering operation of the hydraulic control rod 8 by utilizing the force of the water pump 13 to pump out water. At the same time, the spring rod 7 assists in driving the hydraulic control rod 8 to achieve the driving effect of the housing 1 swinging left and right, thereby realizing the reciprocating circulation of the microalgae liquid in the housing 1.

[0068] like Figure 8 , 9 As shown in Figure 10, a group of first slots 31 are respectively provided at the left and right ends of the buoyancy plate 3 and at the corresponding positions of the gaps between the ceramic flat membranes 21 of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2. A double-row impeller 32 that is rotated by water flow is rotatably provided in the first slots 31. A rope winding area 321 for winding up the steel rope is provided at the center of the double-row impeller 32. A scraper 33 that can move up and down is provided in the gaps between the ceramic flat membranes 21 of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2. The scrapers 33 are connected to the double-row impellers 32 at the left and right ends of the buoyancy plate 3 through a group of steel ropes. Bristles for scraping the ceramic flat membrane 21 are provided on the end surfaces of the scrapers 33 that contact the side surfaces of the ceramic flat membranes 21. The bristles can avoid scratching and abrasion of the ceramic flat membrane 21, and at the same time improve the scraping efficiency. A conduit 34 for limiting the movement of the steel rope is provided on the upper top surface and the lower bottom surface of the buoyancy plate 3 at the corresponding positions of the steel rope. The conduit 34 can improve the transmission efficiency of the steel rope and avoid the occurrence of situations such as steel rope winding.

[0069] Among them, the scraper 33 is provided with a strip through hole for reducing water flow resistance, and a ring-shaped counterweight block is provided at the bottom of the scraper 33; through the structural setting of the buoyancy plate 3, the microalgae liquid swinging left and right in the shell 1 can be utilized to lift and lower the scraper 33 to scrape the surface of the ceramic flat membrane 21, further reducing the risk of the surface of the ceramic flat membrane 21 being blocked by microalgae.

[0070] The operation method of the above-mentioned cross-flow microalgae harvesting equipment is as follows: water is pumped into the water pump 13 through the relay water tank 9, and the filtered sewage pumped into the external water replenishment area is injected into the injection chamber 812 of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81 through the pipeline and the liquid inlet 813. Then, as the water rises to the piston chamber 811 and continuously pushes up the hydraulic control rod body 82, when the hydraulic control rod body 82 rises to the inner top of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81, the trigger end 852 of the clamping block 85 is pushed down by the protrusion 86, so that the clamping block 85 overcomes the elastic force of the torsion spring and rotates, so that the clamping end 851 of the clamping block 85 is disengaged from the clamping connection with the second clamping groove 831 of the plugging plate 83. Under the action of the magnetic repulsion of the magnetic sheet 83, the plugging piece 83 rotates, so that water is discharged through the discharge port 821 of the hydraulic control rod body 82. During the discharge, the water pressure in the piston chamber 811 of the hydraulic control rod tube body 81 is not enough to support the lifting of the shell 1 on this side, and the hydraulic control rod body 82 falls back under the action of the shell 1. During the falling period, the block 85 recovers under the restoring force of the torsion spring, but due to the water pressure and the magnetic repulsion of the magnetic sheet between the magnetic plate 89 and the plugging piece 83, the plugging piece 83 cannot be engaged with the engaging end 851 of the block 85. When it falls to the bottom of the piston chamber 811, the plugging piece 83 is engaged with the engaging end 851 of the block 85 again by pushing up the top block 87.

[0071] During this period, when the microalgae liquid flows left and right in the shell 1, the buoyancy plate 3 guides the liquid through the strip holes 511 of the flow limiting plate 51, and uses the flow of the microalgae liquid to rotate each double-row impeller 32. At the same time, the leftward flow and the rightward flow correspond to the winding of the steel rope of each double-row impeller 32 or the releasing of the steel rope of the double-row impeller 32, respectively. Therefore, with the cooperation of the scraper 33's own gravity, it can move up and down in the gaps between each ceramic flat membrane 21 of the ceramic flat membrane assembly 2, and use its bristles to assist in scraping the ceramic flat membrane 21, thereby further reducing the risk of clogging the ceramic flat membrane 21 by the microalgae liquid.
