The filter cover 200 is respectively provided with a water inlet pipe 201 and a water outlet hole 202 for the inlet and outlet of liquid. The end of the water inlet pipe 201 is sleeved with a water inlet pipe body 300 for the transportation of liquid. The water inlet pipe 201 cooperates with the water inlet pipe body 300 to facilitate the transportation of liquid by extending the water inlet pipe body 300 into the water, and the water outlet hole 202 allows the liquid in the filter cover 200 to be discharged after filtration, so that it is convenient to carry out cleaning operations underwater at a deeper or farther position. The drive system includes a drive housing 100 and a drive housing 100 provided in the drive housing 100 for the filter cover 200. The driving component in the driver housing 100 can be composed of a driving motor and a worm gear blade. The driving motor drives the worm gear blade to rotate, thereby generating a negative pressure suction effect in the filter element cover 200. The driving motor is located inside the driver housing 100, and the worm gear blade is located inside the filter element cover 200. The end surface of the driver housing 100 facing the worm gear blade is sealed, and a through hole is provided in the middle for the worm gear blade to be rotatably installed. The worm gear blade is also connected to the installation through hole by a mechanical seal, so that the worm gear blade can rotate while achieving a seal with the driver housing 100.

The end of the filter cover 200 is fixedly sleeved with an external threaded sleeve 203, and the inner side of the internal threaded end cap 304 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the external threaded sleeve 203. The internal threaded end cap 304 is installed on the connecting pipe head 302, so that after the connecting pipe head 302 is inserted into the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 201, it can be threadedly connected with the external threaded sleeve 203 on it through the internal threaded end cap 304, so as to realize the locking between the connecting pipe head 302 and the water inlet pipe 201 and enhance the splicing between the two. In order to ensure firmness and facilitate subsequent disassembly, an annular groove 204 is provided on the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 201, and an O-ring 205 is sleeved in the annular groove 204. The O-ring 205 is installed by providing the annular groove 204 on the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 201, and the outer wall of the O-ring 205 protrudes from the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 201. In this way, when the connecting pipe head 302 is sleeved on the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 201, the O-ring 205 can be squeezed to achieve a seal between the two, thereby enhancing the sealing of the connection.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the driver housing 100 is composed of a housing base 101 and a housing connecting seat 102. The driver housing 100 composed of the housing base 101 and the housing connecting seat 102 can facilitate the separate disassembly and assembly of the drive motor and the worm wheel blades in the driver, which is convenient for maintenance, and can realize the split structure of the driver housing 100, which is convenient for assembly and can realize the separate replacement of the structure, thereby reducing costs. An annular groove 109 is opened on the side of the housing connecting seat 102 away from the housing base 101, and the side ear plate 103 is fixedly arranged on the side wall of the housing connecting seat 102. An arc through hole 107 connected to the two sides of the housing connecting seat 102 is opened on the inner side of the annular groove 109. The opening of the arc through hole 107 can facilitate the ejection of the sealing ring 400 located in the annular groove 109 after the housing connecting seat 102 is disassembled, so as to facilitate the disassembly of the sealing ring 400. One side of the housing base 101 is aligned with the arc through hole 107. An arc stopper 108 is fixedly provided at the corresponding position for sealing the arc through hole 107. The setting of the arc stopper 108 enables the arc through hole 107 on the shell connecting seat 102 to be blocked and closed after the shell base 101 and the shell connecting seat 102 are spliced ​​together, so that the arc through hole 107 can be conveniently removed after the shell connecting seat 102 is disassembled to remove the sealing ring 400, while avoiding the problem that the arc through hole 107 is always exposed and affects the sealing performance of the driver shell 100. The side wall of the shell base 101 is provided with a side ear groove 105, and the inner side wall of the shell connecting seat 102 is fixedly connected with a positioning ear block 106, and the positioning ear block 106 is movably plugged into the side ear groove 105. After the shell connecting seat 102 and the shell base 101 are connected, the positioning ear block 106 can be rotated and inserted into the side ear groove 105 through relative rotation between the two, so as to achieve the splicing positioning between the two, thereby facilitating the subsequent locking and fixing by bolts.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
