The collecting plate 14 can collect impurities scraped out by the scraper 7 through the leakage groove 9, and the process of placing it on the inner side of the hook plate 13 is very convenient.
[0026] Embodiment 2
[0027] See also Figure 5-6 A placement plate 15 is provided on the inner side of the shell 1, and a convex plate 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the placement plate 15. A latch 17 is inserted on the inner side of the convex plate 16. The radius of the latch 17 is consistent with the radius of the positioning groove 20. A pull plate 18 is fixedly installed on one end of the latch 17. A tension spring 19 is sleeved on the surface of the latch 17. One end of the tension spring 19 is fixedly installed on the side of the convex plate 16, and the other end of the tension spring 19 is fixedly installed on the side of the pull plate 18.

[0028] Working principle: When working, firstly, water is injected into the inner side of the water tank 3 through the water inlet pipe 2, and then under the action of gravity, the water in the water tank 3 will fall into the inner side of the shell 1 through the filter plate 4 for condensation. In this process, the filter plate 4 will intercept the impurities in the water. After the water inside the water tank 3 is condensed, the motor 5 is started and the threaded rod 6 is driven to rotate. In this process, the scraper 7 will be driven to scrape along the filter plate 4 under the action of the thread, so that the impurities on the surface of the filter plate 4 can be scraped off. When the threaded rod 6 rotates, the gear 12 will be driven to rotate, and under the meshing action, the tooth plate 11 and the sealing plate 10 will be driven to slide inside the cavity 8, so that the sealing plate 10 will expose the leakage groove 9, and then with the scraper The movement of 7 will scrape the impurities out along the leakage groove 9, and make them enter the inner side of the collecting plate 14 under the action of gravity, and then the motor 5 drives the threaded rod 6 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the scraper 7 is reset under the action of the thread, and the gear 12 is driven to rotate in the opposite direction, and the sealing plate 10 is driven to block the leakage groove 9 again under the meshing action. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the placement plate 15, first pull the pull plates 18 on both sides inward, and under the action of force, the latch 17 will be driven to disengage from the inner side of the positioning groove 20, and the tension spring 19 will be deformed, and then move the placement plate 15 to a suitable position, and then release the placement plate 15, and under the action of the tension spring 19, the latch 17 will be driven to reset on the inner side of the adjacent positioning groove 20.
