A drying gear 60 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the drying gear shaft 61. The drying gear 60 meshes with the arc-shaped sealing plate 55.
[0045] When algae enter the filter cylinder 71, the filter motor 41 is activated, which drives the filter gear shaft 40 to rotate, thereby driving the filter gear 39 to rotate. The filter gear 39 meshes with the filter annular rack 48, thereby driving the filter annular rack 48 to rotate, which in turn drives the filter electric push rod 54 to rotate, thereby driving the filter cylinder 71 to rotate, thus dehydrating the algae in the filter cylinder 71. After dehydration, the drying motor is activated, which drives the drying gear shaft 61 to rotate, thereby driving the drying gear 60 to rotate. The drying gear 60 meshes with the arc-shaped sealing plate 55, thereby driving the arc-shaped sealing plate 55 to move, thus opening the drying chamber 72 and energizing the drying heating wire 43, thereby drying the algae in the filter cylinder 71.

This process is repeated multiple times.
[0048] Advantageously, an isolation mechanism is provided between the end walls of the cleaning chamber 19. The isolation mechanism is used to isolate algae so that they are located on the upper side of the partition net 21, which facilitates cleaning.

A sealing gear 32 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the sealing gear shaft 31. The sealing gear 32 meshes with the sealing plate 29.
[0051] This starts the enclosed motor, which drives the enclosed gear shaft 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the enclosed gear 32 to rotate. The enclosed gear 32 meshes with the enclosed plate 29, which in turn drives the enclosed plate 29 to move, thereby opening the cleaning chamber 19 and allowing water and algae to enter the enclosed chamber 28 and then enter the conveying chamber 33.
[0052] Advantageously, the filter box 1 is provided with a conveying mechanism for conveying algae. The conveying mechanism includes a conveying cavity 33 provided in the filter box 1. A conveying shaft 53 is symmetrically rotatably connected between the end walls of the conveying cavity 33. The conveying shaft 53 is poweredly connected to a conveying motor.

A connecting cavity 49 is provided on the end wall of the conveying cavity 33. The connecting cavity 49 communicates with the water filtration cavity 47.
[0053] The algae fall onto the conveyor belt 34. Water enters the conveyor chamber 33 through the conveyor belt 34 and is discharged through the drain outlet 13. The conveyor motor is started, which drives the conveyor shaft 53 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor pulley 35 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor belt 34 to move, thus transporting the algae.

A removal electric gripper 58 is connected to the bottom wall of the mounting plate 57. An outlet 11 is machined on the end wall of the removal groove 50.
[0055] The conveyor belt 34 moves, thus moving the algae. The limiting plate 36 flattens the algae and prevents them from piling up, allowing them to pass through flat and facilitating the removal of impurities. The vision sensor 37 detects the algae and sends a signal to the removal motor to locate the impurities. The removal motor then rotates the removal screw 52, which in turn moves the removal nut block 51, which in turn moves the electric removal push rod 56. This causes the electric removal gripper 58 to move to the appropriate position, and the electric removal push rod 56 moves downward, causing the mounting plate 57 to move downward to the appropriate position. The electric removal gripper 58 then clamps the impurities. After clamping, the electric removal push rod 56 resets, and the removal motor moves, causing the electric removal gripper 58 to move to the upper side of the discharge port 11, releasing the grip on the impurities and allowing them to be discharged through the discharge port 11.

A discharge valve 44 is fixedly mounted between the end walls of the filter port 12.
[0059] The water filter cylinder 71 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 46 to rotate, thereby driving the grooved turntable 45 to rotate, increasing the stability of the rotation of the water filter cylinder 71. Water is discharged through the water outlet 12 and the discharge valve 44, causing the lifting electric push rod 42 to move, which in turn drives the base plate 7 to move downward, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 46 to move downward, which in turn drives the grooved turntable 45 to move downward, which in turn drives the water filter cylinder 71 to move downward. This causes the water filter electric push rod 54 to move and release the clamp on the water filter cylinder 71, allowing the water filter cylinder 71 to move out of the water filter chamber. After step 47, the clamping motor 70 is started, thereby driving the drive shaft 68 to rotate, which in turn drives the drive gear 69 to rotate. The drive gear 69 meshes with the clamping ring rack 67, thereby driving the clamping ring rack 67 to rotate. The clamping ring rack 67 meshes with the clamping gear 66, thereby driving the clamping screw 63 to rotate, which in turn drives the clamping threaded sleeve 65 to move, thereby releasing the clamp on the water filter cylinder 71.

[0063] Step 2: After cleaning is completed, the drainage mechanism moves to drain the water in the cleaning chamber 19. During drainage, the quality of the cleaned water is tested to determine whether it is clean.
[0064] Step 3: After drainage, the sealing mechanism moves, thereby opening the sealing cavity 28. After opening, the isolation mechanism moves, allowing the algae to enter the sealing cavity 28 and then enter the conveying cavity 33 through the sealing cavity 28.
[0065] Step 4: After entering the conveying chamber 33, the conveying mechanism moves to transport the algae.
[0066] Step 5: During transport, the rejection mechanism moves to remove other impurities from the algae.
[0067] Step Six: After removal, the algae enter the water filter cylinder 71, and the water filtration and drying mechanism moves to dehydrate the algae. After dehydration, the algae are dried.
[0068] Step 7: After dehydration and drying are completed, the lifting and clamping mechanism moves, thereby driving the filter cylinder 71 to move out of the filter chamber 47, so that the algae in the filter cylinder 71 can be removed.
[0069] Step 8: The water generated during filtration enters the water collection tank 9 for collection.
[0070] The working process of this invention is as follows: Valve 17 is opened, and algae are placed into the cleaning chamber 19 through the insertion tube 6 and the addition channel 16. The connecting pipe 3 is connected to the water supply pipe, and water enters the diversion valve 4 through the connecting pipe 3, then the water inlet channel 14 through the diversion pipe 5. The water inlet valve 15 is opened, allowing water to enter the cleaning chamber 19. The cleaning motor 18 is started, driving the cleaning shaft 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the cleaning rod 73 to rotate and clean the algae. After cleaning, the water is discharged. Before drainage, the detection sensor 27 detects the water quality. After detection, the drain valve 26 is activated, allowing the water in the cleaning chamber 19 to be discharged through the drain pipe 2. The water is tested during discharge; if it passes the test, no more water is introduced for further cleaning; if it fails, water is introduced for continued cleaning. After water is introduced for cleaning, the isolation motor is started, which drives the isolation gear shaft 25 to rotate, thereby driving the isolation gear 24 to rotate. The isolation gear 24 meshes with the isolation rack 22, thereby driving the isolation rack 22 to move, which in turn drives the isolation mesh 21 to move. The scraping plate 62 scrapes off the algae on the surface of the isolation mesh 21, allowing the algae to enter the bottom of the cleaning chamber 19. The sealing motor is then started, which drives the sealing gear shaft 31 to rotate, thereby driving the sealing gear 32 to rotate. The sealing gear 32 meshes with the sealing plate 29, thereby driving the sealing plate 29 to move, thus opening the cleaning chamber 19. This allows water and algae to enter the sealed chamber 28, and then enter the conveying chamber 33 through the sealed chamber 28. The algae fall onto the conveyor belt 34. Water enters the conveying chamber 33 through the conveyor belt 34 and is discharged through the drain outlet 13. The conveyor motor is started, causing the conveyor shaft 53 to rotate, which in turn rotates the conveyor pulley 35, thus moving the conveyor belt 34 and transporting the algae.The conveyor belt 34 moves, thereby moving the algae. The limiting plate 36 flattens the algae and prevents them from piling up, allowing them to pass through flat and facilitating the removal of impurities. The vision sensor 37 detects the algae, sends a signal to the removal motor to locate the impurities, and the motor rotates, causing the removal screw 52 to rotate. This rotates the removal nut block 51, which in turn moves the electric removal push rod 56, which in turn moves the electric removal gripper 58 to the corresponding position. The electric removal push rod 56 then moves downward, causing the mounting plate 57 to move downward to the corresponding position, where the electric removal gripper 58 clamps the impurities. After clamping, the electric removal push rod 56 resets, and the removal motor rotates, causing the electric removal gripper 58 to move to the... On the upper side of the outlet 11, the clamps holding impurities are released, allowing them to be discharged through the outlet 11. When algae enter the filter cylinder 71, the filter motor 41 is activated, driving the filter gear shaft 40 to rotate, which in turn drives the filter gear 39. The filter gear 39 meshes with the filter annular rack 48, causing the rack to rotate, which in turn drives the filter electric push rod 54, which in turn drives the filter cylinder 71 to rotate, thus dehydrating the algae in the filter cylinder 71. After dehydration, the drying motor is activated, driving the drying gear shaft 61 to rotate, which in turn drives the drying gear 60. The drying gear 60 meshes with the arc-shaped sealing plate 55, causing the arc-shaped sealing plate 55 to move, thus opening the drying chamber 72 and energizing the drying heating wire 43, thereby drying the algae in the filter cylinder 71.The rotation of the filter cylinder 71 drives the rotating shaft 46 to rotate, which in turn drives the grooved turntable 45 to rotate, increasing the stability of the rotation of the filter cylinder 71. Water is discharged through the filter port 12 and the discharge valve 44, causing the lifting electric push rod 42 to move, which in turn drives the base plate 7 to move downward, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 46 to move downward, which in turn drives the grooved turntable 45 to move downward, which in turn drives the filter cylinder 71 to move downward. This causes the water filter electric push rod 54 to move and release the clamp on the filter cylinder 71, allowing the filter cylinder 71 to move out of the water filter chamber 4. After step 7, the clamping motor 70 is started, thereby driving the drive shaft 68 to rotate. The drive shaft 68 rotates, which in turn drives the drive gear 69 to rotate. The drive gear 69 meshes with the clamping ring rack 67, causing the clamping ring rack 67 to rotate. The clamping ring rack 67 meshes with the clamping gear 66, causing the clamping screw 63 to rotate. This, in turn, moves the clamping threaded sleeve 65, releasing the clamp on the water filter cylinder 71. The operator can then remove the water filter cylinder 71 to facilitate the removal of algae from it.
