[0033] The water plant collecting device 2 comprises a collecting system and a water flow circulation system. The collecting system is used for directly collecting the water plants, and the water flow circulation system sends the water plants into the collecting system by controlling the water flow.
[0034] Further, the collecting system comprises a collecting net bag 21, a collecting cabin cover 22, an entry water long rod 23 and a control handle 24.
[0035] The collecting bag 21 is used for collecting the fallen water grass after trimming, and has an open upper end and a mesh size of no more than 1 mm. The collecting bag 21 is connected to the collecting cabin 22 through the open upper end.
[0036] The collecting cabin 22 is used for mounting the collecting bag 21 and guiding the water grass into the collecting bag 21.
[0037] The water inlet long rod 23 includes a hollow cylinder structure with two sections, and the two sections of the water inlet long rod 23 are connected through a connecting sleeve chain, so that the two sections of the water inlet long rod 23 can rotate relative to each other, thereby adjusting the orientation of the collecting bag 21. The lower end of the water inlet long rod 23 is connected to the collecting cabin 22, and the upper end is connected to the control handle 24.
[0038] The control handle 24 is a special-shaped ring structure, which is shaped to adapt to the posture of holding with the palm.

[0039] For example, the collecting cabin 22 includes an upper cover 221, a negative pressure cylinder 222, a filter screen 223, and a bag mounting rack 224. The upper cover 221 is a semi-elliptical plate body with a skirt edge on the lower side edge. The negative pressure cylinder 222 is connected to the upper cover 221 through the upper and lower ends, and the upper end of the negative pressure cylinder 222 is fixedly or detachably connected to the lower end of the water inlet long rod 23. In this embodiment, the plug-in connection is adopted. The filter screen 223 is used to block the passage of the water grass into the lower end of the negative pressure cylinder 222. The bag mounting rack 224 is arranged below the negative pressure cylinder 222 and connected to the outer wall of the negative pressure cylinder 222. The bag mounting rack 224 includes a mounting ring in the shape of a ring and two connecting rods connecting the mounting ring to the outer wall of the negative pressure cylinder 222. The collecting bag 21 is sleeved on the mounting ring and is expanded by the mounting ring. One side between the negative pressure cylinder 222 and the collecting bag 21 forms a passage for the water grass to enter. The filter screen 223 is blocked between the lower opening of the negative pressure cylinder 222 and the passage for the water grass to enter, and the filter screen 223 can guide the water grass into the mounting ring and the collecting bag 21.
[0040] In this application, the water grass can enter the collecting cabin 22 through the passage, but cannot enter the negative pressure cylinder 222 due to the blockage of the filter screen 223. The water grass will gradually fall into the inner ring of the mounting ring under the guidance of the filter screen 223, and then fall into the collecting bag 21, which is uniformly collected.
[0041] The water flow circulation system includes a water flow pipeline 25, a water pump 26, a drain pipe joint 27, and a water inlet control valve 28.
[0042] The water flow pipeline 25 is arranged as a hose and is laid in the water inlet long rod 23.

The water pump 26 is connected with the water flow pipeline 25 and is installed in the water inlet long rod 23. The water pump 26 is connected with the power host 11 through a wire and is powered by the power host 11. The wire of the water pump 26 is laid upwards along the water inlet long rod 23 and is drawn out from the position of the control handle 24 and connected with the power host 11. The drain pipe joint 27 is arranged at the upper end of the water inlet long rod 23 close to the control handle 24. The drain pipe joint 27 can be externally connected with a drain pipe. The drain pipe can be connected into the water body of the fish tank or connected outside the water body of the fish tank and is used for sending the water flow drawn by the water pump 26 out of the fish tank, so that the water in the fish tank can be drained. The water inlet control valve 28 is installed at the lower end of the water inlet long rod 23 and is communicated with the water flow pipeline 25. In the embodiment, the water inlet control valve 28 is arranged as a battery valve and is communicated with the power host 11 through a wire. The water inlet control valve 28 can control the water flow pipeline 25 to be opened or closed.
[0043] The control system in the embodiment includes a controller, a first control switch 3 and a second control switch 4. The controller is connected with the power module of the power host 11. The first control switch 3 is installed on one side of the control handle 24 and is used for controlling the start and stop of the driving motor in the trimming device. The second control switch 4 is installed on the other side of the control handle 24 and is used for controlling the start and stop of the water pump 26 in the water plant collecting device 2 and the opening and closing of the water inlet control valve 28.
[0044] The water flow circulation system controls the water inlet control valve 28 to be opened and the water pump 26 to be started through the second control switch 4, so that the water body in the fish tank is sucked into the negative pressure cylinder 222. Negative pressure is formed in the negative pressure cylinder 222, which guides the water flow and the water plants to move towards the lower opening of the negative pressure cylinder 222. The water flow enters the water flow pipeline 25, and the water plants are blocked by the filter screen 223 and fall into the collecting net bag 21. The water flow flows back to the fish tank through the drain pipe and is circulated.
