[0052] Appendix Figure 16 In the diagram, ① represents the direction of water flow into the sinking chamber, ② represents the direction of water flow into the sinking chamber, ③ represents the direction of cleaning water flow, ④ represents the direction of high-pressure gas storage and upward flow, ⑤ represents the direction of water flow, and ⑥ represents the direction of water flow into the upward flow. The specific flow processes for ① and ② are as follows: water from the external water area passes through inlet I 106 and enters the space between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101. Simultaneously, the water compresses the air existing between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101, causing the air to be discharged to the outside through outlet 104. The specific flow process for ③ is as follows: water from the external water area continuously passes through inlet I 106 to replenish the water between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101. Simultaneously, the water between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101 passes through inlet II 2032, is filtered in filter 2031, and then pumped into the mounting box 108 by pump 203 to cooperate with the cleaning mechanism 204 to complete the cleaning work. Subsequently, centrifugal pump 205 extracts the water from the mounting box 108 through connecting box III 2052. The water is discharged through the discharge pipe 2051 to the turning device 3; the specific flow processes of ④ and ⑥ are as follows: before the monitoring device sinks, outside air continuously passes through the air inlet pipe 105 to replenish the air in the mounting box 101. At the same time, the high-pressure air pump 402 continuously draws the air in the mounting box 101 into the high-pressure air chamber 401 for storage. When the monitoring device sinking in the water needs to float, the high-pressure air in the high-pressure air chamber 401 continuously passes through the high-pressure air valve 403 to quickly fill the space between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101. At the same time, the air squeezes the water between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101, so that the water between the outer shell 1 and the mounting box 101 continuously passes through the water inlet I 106 back to the outside water area; the specific flow process of ⑤ is that the blade 302 drives the water in the outside water area through the grid plate I 102, and then the water flows along the axial direction of the blade 302 and passes through the grid plate II 3011 back to the outside water area.

[0053] An ecological aquatic environment patrol and monitoring device operates as follows:

[0054] The monitoring device is placed in the water area to be monitored, and then the ammonia nitrogen sensor 10, chlorophyll sensor 11, conductivity sensor 12, and turbidity sensor 13 are controlled to start water quality monitoring. The environment around the monitoring device is photographed and observed by the underwater camera 14. Finally, the monitoring data and the captured images are transmitted to the server in real time through the telemetry terminal 9, thereby realizing water quality monitoring and data transmission of monitoring results.

[0055] The LoRa switch module 8 receives signals from the server and controls the motor II 303 in the steering device 3 to start, causing the blades 302 to drive the water in the water area through the grid plate I 102 and then through the grid plate II 3011 for discharge, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 16 As shown in ⑤, the monitoring device is propelled by the water flow to move in the water; when a turn is needed, the motor Ⅲ304 is turned on to control the hemispherical guide groove 301 to rotate to the left or right, thereby controlling the direction of the water flow through the grid plate Ⅱ3011 and realizing the turning of the monitoring device in the water; thus, the monitoring device can reach any position in the water area and expand the monitoring range of the monitoring device.

[0056] The LoRa switch module 8 receives signals from the server and controls the electric actuator V 406 in the buoyancy control device 4 to retract, causing the sealing column 4061 to disengage from the air inlet pipe 105. This activates the high-pressure air pump 402, allowing outside air to enter the mounting box 101 through the air inlet pipe 105. The high-pressure air pump 402 then draws air from the mounting box 101 into the high-pressure air chamber 401 for storage. Once the high-pressure air chamber 401 is full, the high-pressure air pump 402 stops, and simultaneously, the electric actuator V 406 extends, causing the sealing column 4061 to re-close the air inlet pipe 105. Then, electric actuators III 404 and IV 405 retract simultaneously, opening the water inlet I 106 and the exhaust port 104, allowing water from the water area to enter the outer casing 1 and... The monitoring device is controlled to sink between the housing 1 and the mounting box 101. By controlling the amount of water entering between the housing 1 and the mounting box 101, the monitoring device can be controlled to sink to different depths in the water for water quality monitoring. Finally, by controlling the electric actuator III 404 to retract, the water inlet I 106 is opened, and the high-pressure air valve 403 is opened. The high-pressure gas in the high-pressure air chamber 401 passes through the high-pressure air valve 403 and enters between the housing 1 and the mounting box 101, squeezing the water between the housing 1 and the mounting box 101 and discharging the water between the housing 1 and the mounting box 101 from the water inlet I 106. After all the water between the housing 1 and the mounting box 101 is discharged, the electric actuator III 404 extends and closes the water inlet I 106, thereby controlling the floating of the monitoring device.

[0057] The LoRa switch module 8 receives signals from the server and controls the electric actuator Ⅲ404 to retract, opening the water inlet Ⅰ106. After activating the water pump 203 in the monitoring device 2, water located between the outer casing 1 and the mounting box 101 enters the filter 2031 through the water inlet Ⅱ2032 for filtration. Then, the water pump 203 fills the space between the rotating box 201 and the mounting box 108. Subsequently, the motor Ⅰ202 controls the rotating box 201 to rotate 360 ​​degrees, scraping away weeds and other attachments from the sidewall of the mounting box 108. Simultaneously, the electric actuator Ⅰ2042 in the cleaning mechanism 204 controls the rack 2043 to drive the rotating mechanism 206, thereby controlling the roller brush 2. 044 Clean the silt and algae remaining on the rotating box 201. At the same time, the rotating frame 2045 filters out the attached material brushed off by the roller brush 2044 and drives it to rotate to the discharge port 1082. Then, the electric actuator II 2047 extends and retracts, controlling the scraper 2048 to slide up and down along the filter plate 2046 to scrape off the impurities filtered out by the filter plate 2046. The centrifugal pump 205 is turned on, so that the water in the mounting box 108 passes through the filter plate 2046, carrying impurities through the connecting box III 2052 and the centrifugal pump 205, and then enters the area where the blade 302 is located through the discharge pipe 2051. Under the operation of the blade 302, it passes through the grid plate II 3011 and returns to the water area. During the cleaning process, the water flow direction is as shown in ③ in the attached figure.

[0058] The extension and retraction control rack 2043 of the electric actuator I 2042 engages with the gears 2063 in the two sets of rotating mechanisms 206, thereby driving the rotating plate 2064 to rotate. When the electric actuator I 2042 extends, the gears 2063 in one set of rotating mechanisms 206 drive the rotating plate 2064 to rotate, thereby throwing a pair of push blocks 2065 apart through centrifugal force. This causes the ends of the push blocks 2065 to engage with the slots in the turntable 2062, pushing the turntable 2062 to drive the roller brush 2044 to rotate clockwise. The pair of push blocks 2065 in the other set of rotating mechanisms 206 retract towards the rotating plate 2064, thereby keeping the rotating frame 2045 stationary. When the electric actuator I 2042 retracts, the pair of push blocks 2065 in one set of rotating mechanisms 206 retract towards the rotating plate 2064, thereby keeping the roller brush 2044 stationary. The other set of rotating mechanisms 206 drives the rotating frame 2045 to rotate counterclockwise.

[0059] After cleaning is completed, water pump 203 and centrifugal pump 205 are turned off, electric actuator Ⅲ404 extends to re-close water inlet Ⅰ106, and at the same time motor Ⅰ202 reverses, driving rotating box 201 to reverse and reset.
