[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, in use, water enters the inner cylinder and realizes annular flow through the annular flow channel. During the annular flow process, under the action of centrifugal force, impurities such as sand will gather and be discharged through the sand discharge channel, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the sand content entering the water pump impeller.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, in use, the liquid enters into the annular flow channel through the flow hole and forms an annular flow channel in the annular flow channel.

[0008] In a preferred example, the present application can be further configured as follows: there is at least one annular flow channel.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, more water can enter the annular flow channels by setting a certain number of annular flow channels, and the lead is larger, the climbing resistance of the water flow is increased, and the sediment is easier to break away from the water flow and be separated.

[0010] In a preferred example, the present application can be further configured as follows: it also includes an outer cylinder, the filtering mechanism is arranged in the outer cylinder, and a sand storage chamber is formed between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, that is, by forming a local or dynamic water seal, a better sediment removal effect can be achieved for water flows with a large amount of sediment.

[0020] In a preferred example, the present application can be further configured as follows: the inner cylinder includes a support cylinder, the annular flow channel is arranged on the outer wall surface of the support cylinder, the inner diameter of the support cylinder is R1, the outer diameter is R2, the distance from the outer wall surface of the annular flow channel to the axis is R3, and the distance between the support cylinder and the rotating shaft is B, then π(R1 2 -(R1-B) 2 )≤π(R3 2 -R2 2 ).

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when the amount of sediment is low, a gap can be provided between the inner cylinder and the rotating shaft.

[0022] The present application also discloses a water pump: the sand filter device mentioned above is adopted, and the sand filter device is installed in front of the inlet of the water pump.

[0023] This application has the following advantages: 1.

The existence of the sand retention channel reduces the probability of subsequent water flow causing sediment to re-enter the water flow; 3. A relatively stable environment is formed between the sand storage chamber and the inner tube, which is conducive to the accumulation of sediment; 4. When the inner wall of the support tube contacts the rotating shaft / connector or has a small gap, the water flow under the action of the inducer enters the annular flow channel, thereby improving the ability to filter sediment; 5. When there is a gap (not a small gap) between the inner wall of the support tube and the rotating shaft / connector, the flow that directly passes through the filter device is merged at the water outlet end of the annular flow channel and the open end of the sand collecting tube to increase the flow rate and supplement the flow; 6. Setting a booster wheel can provide the initial circulation (circulation) to offset the loss caused by the annular flow channel, and can also improve the anti-cavitation performance of the water pump; 7. The modular sand filter device makes it easy to install and disassemble, and to select different combinations according to actual scenarios. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

When there are multiple annular flow channels 23, they may be in the form of multi-head spirals. At least one flow hole 211 is disposed on the support cylinder 21, and the flow hole 211 is connected to the annular flow channel 23.

[0031] The annular flow channel 23 is provided with a sand discharge channel 224. The inner tube and the outer tube 1 form a sand storage chamber 11. The sand discharge channel 224 is connected to the sand storage chamber 11.

The bottom of the sand storage chamber 11 is inclined, and a discharge hole 12 is provided at the lowest point. The discharge hole 12 discharges the silt to the outside of the water pump through a pipeline. See Figure 1 , the lowest end refers to Figure 1 The lowest end of the spiral groove in the cross-sectional schematic diagram.

The spiral includes a transverse plate 221 and a vertical side wall 223, the transverse plate 221 and the vertical side wall 223 are connected by a connecting wall 222, the cross section of the connecting wall 222 can be an arc or a broken line, at least a part of the vertical side wall 223 is a contact member, and is in contact with the connector of the next spiral (i.e., the transverse plate 221 and the connecting wall 222, or the transverse plate 221 and the connecting wall 222 and at least a part of the vertical side wall 223). At this time, the contact member and the connector of the next spiral form a sand retention groove 225, and the sand discharge channel 224 is formed by the deformation of the contact member. In this embodiment, the contact member is an elastic member, such as a rubber material. In other embodiments, the contact piece may be a non-elastic piece, in which case the contact piece does not contact the connector of the next spiral body, and there is a channel between the two for the sand to pass through, which is the sand discharge channel 224. The lower end of the sand storage chamber 11 is U-shaped, and the lowest contact piece extends into the sand storage chamber 11 and is close to or in contact with the inner wall of the sand storage chamber 11.
