The water inlet 110 and the drain port 130 communicate with the first chamber, the water outlet 120 communicates with the second chamber, and an electric ball valve 131 is provided at the drain port 130; a filtration unit 200, which includes a motor 210, a rotating shaft 220, and a filter screen 230. The rotating shaft 220 is rotatably connected to the cylinder body 100. The rotating shaft 220 is fixedly connected to the filter screen 230. The rotating shaft 220 and the filter screen 230 are coaxially arranged. The motor 210 drives the rotating shaft 220 to rotate. A flange 231 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter screen 230, and the flange 231 faces the inner side of the positioning ring 140; a scraper 400, which is fixedly connected to the cylinder body 100. The scraper 400 is located in the first chamber and faces the filter screen 230.

[0018] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the cylinder body 100 is provided with a water inlet 110 and a water outlet 120. During the normal operation of the self-cleaning seawater filtering device, seawater enters the cylinder body 100 from the water inlet 110, and after being filtered by the filter screen 230, it then flows out of the cylinder body 100 from the water outlet 120. The cylinder body 100 is provided with a drain port 130, and the drain port 130 can be used to drain the seawater inside the cylinder body 100. An electric ball valve 131 is arranged at the drain port 130, and the electric ball valve 131 is used to control the on-off of the drain port 130.

[0019] The rotating shaft 220 is rotatably connected to the cylinder body 100, and the filter screen 230 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 220. When the motor 210 drives the rotating shaft 220 to rotate, the rotating shaft 220 can drive the filter screen 230 to rotate, so that a relative movement is generated between the filter screen 230 and the scraper 400, and the scraper 400 can scrape off the marine organisms attached to the filter screen 230.

[0020] A positioning ring 140 is fixedly connected inside the cylinder body 100. A flange 231 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter screen 230, and the flange 231 faces the inside of the positioning ring 140. The positioning ring 140 can limit the movement range of the flange 231, that is, limit the movement range of the filter screen 230, ensuring the reliability of the rotation of the filter screen 230.

[0021] During the working process of the self-cleaning seawater filtering device, the motor 210 can be used to drive the rotating shaft 220 to rotate. The rotating shaft 220 drives the filter screen 230 to rotate, and the scraper 400 can clean the marine organisms attached to the surface of the filter screen 230, ensuring the filtering speed of the self-cleaning seawater filtering device. When the scraper 400 is used to clean the surface of the filter screen 230, the electric ball valve 131 is opened, and the dirty seawater generated during the cleaning process is discharged from the cylinder body 100 through the drain port 130.

[0022] Further, the second chamber is located above the first chamber.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present utility model, seawater enters the first chamber from the water inlet 110, then passes through the filter screen 230 into the second chamber, and then is discharged from the cylinder body 100 through the drain port 130. The second chamber is located above the first chamber, enabling the filter screen 230 to fully filter the seawater.

[0024] Further, a positioning cylinder 150 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder body 100. One end of the rotating shaft 220 is fixedly connected with a first positioning sleeve 221, and a part of the first positioning sleeve 221 is placed into the positioning cylinder 150 and is rotatably connected to the positioning cylinder 150.

[0025] In an embodiment of the present utility model, placing the first positioning sleeve 221 into the positioning cylinder 150 and rotatably connecting it to the positioning cylinder 150 ensures the reliability of the rotational connection between the first positioning sleeve 221 and the positioning sleeve, that is, ensures the reliability of the rotational connection between the rotating shaft 220 and the bottom of the cylinder body 100.

[0026] Further, an adjusting gasket is sleeved on the rotating shaft 220, and the adjusting gasket is located between the bottom plate of the filter screen 230 and the first positioning sleeve 221.

[0027] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the adjusting gasket can separate the bottom plate of the filter screen 230 and the first positioning sleeve 221.

[0028] Further, a second positioning sleeve 222 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 220, and the second positioning sleeve 222 is fixedly connected to the flange 231.

[0029] In an embodiment of the present utility model, by providing the second positioning sleeve 222, the reliability of the fixed connection between the rotating shaft 220 and the filter screen 230 is ensured.

[0030] Further, a cover plate 160 is detachably and fixedly connected to the top of the cylinder body 100, the motor 210 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 160, the rotating shaft 220 passes through the cover plate 160, and the rotating shaft 220 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 160.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the cover plate 160 can cover the top of the cylinder body 100 to prevent seawater from flowing out of the cylinder body 100 from the top of the cylinder body 100. The motor 210 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 160. By providing the cover plate 160, it is convenient to fix the motor 210. The rotating shaft 220 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 160, ensuring the reliability of the rotating connection between the rotating shaft 220 and the cylinder body 100.

[0032] Further, a differential pressure sensor is provided inside the cylinder body 100. The differential pressure sensor is used to sense the pressure difference inside and outside the filter screen 230, and the motor 210 and the electric ball valve 131 are respectively electrically connected to the differential pressure sensor.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present utility model, by providing a differential pressure sensor inside the cylinder body 100 to sense the pressure difference inside and outside the filter screen 230, when the pressure difference inside and outside the filter screen 230 is large, it indicates that the filter screen 230 may be severely blocked. The motor 210 and the electric ball valve 131 act simultaneously. The motor 210 drives the filter screen 230 to rotate, and the electric ball valve 131 opens the drain port 130, enabling automatic cleaning. Of course, the motor 210 and the electric ball valve 131 can also be set to act synchronously regularly to clean the filter screen 230 regularly.

[0034] Further, the scraper 400 is fixedly connected with a fixing rod 410. A positioning column 411 is arranged at the bottom of the fixing rod 410. An fixing plate 170 is fixedly connected inside the cylinder body 100. The fixing plate 170 is provided with a through hole for the positioning column 411 to pass through. The top of the fixing rod 410 is fixedly connected to the positioning ring 140 through a bolt.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a positioning post 411 is provided at the bottom of the fixing rod 410. The positioning post 411 is placed into the through hole to position the fixing rod 410. The top of the fixing rod 410 is fixedly connected to the positioning ring 140 by bolts, thereby fixing the fixing rod 410, that is, fixing the scraper 400. When installing the fixing rod 410 and the scraper 400, the fixing rod 410 can be rotated to adjust the relative position between the scraper 400 and the filter screen 230, so that the scraper 400 can scrape off the marine organisms attached to the filter screen 230.

[0036] Further, the width of the gap between the flange 231 and the positioning ring 140 is smaller than the aperture of the filter screen 230.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present utility model, a gap is provided between the flange 231 and the positioning ring 140, which can reduce the friction force during the rotation of the filter screen 230. The width of the gap between the flange 231 and the positioning ring 140 is smaller than the aperture of the filter screen 230, so that seawater can more easily pass through the filter screen 230. And even if seawater enters the second chamber from the gap between the flange 231 and the positioning ring 140, the over-sized marine organisms cannot pass through the gap between the flange 231 and the positioning ring 140, ensuring the filtering effect of the self-cleaning seawater filtering device.
