[0002] Water conservancy and environmental protection aims to build ecological water conservancy, and through comprehensive environmental management, fundamentally control water hazards, prevent droughts, stop water pollution, and ultimately achieve harmony between humans and nature. In some rivers and canals, eutrophication has led to the growth of large amounts of green algae. Excessive green algae consume too many nutrients in the water, affecting the growth of aquatic organisms. They may also cover equipment such as water pumps and filters, affecting the efficiency and lifespan of the equipment. In order to avoid the damage of green algae to the aquatic ecosystem, it is necessary to clean up the green algae in the water.

[0023] To facilitate the collection of green algae by bringing it closer to inlet 2, two auxiliary devices are installed on the outer casing 1. Each device includes: an electric push rod 16, a rectangular block 17, a hinged rod 18, a rectangular block 19, two mounting blocks 20, a round rod 21, a driving rod 22, and a toggle plate 23. Two U-shaped clamps are fixedly installed on one side of the outer casing 1. The electric push rod 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer casing 1 via the two U-shaped clamps. The rectangular block 17 is fixedly installed on the input of the electric push rod 16. On the rod, the hinge rod 18 is rotatably mounted on the first rectangular block 17, and the second rectangular block 19 is rotatably mounted on the end of the hinge rod 18 away from the first rectangular block 17. Both mounting blocks 20 are fixedly mounted on one side of the outer box 1. The round rod 21 is rotatably mounted between the two mounting blocks 20.

[0024] To increase the smoothness of sliding of the two rectangular blocks 17 and reduce wear, in this method, rolling balls are embedded on the side of the two rectangular blocks 17 that are close to each other, and the two rolling balls are in contact with the two sides of the outer box 1 respectively.

[0025] To achieve a waterproof effect and prevent water from flowing into the hollow suspension block 6 and the rectangular box 10, the top and bottom of the hollow suspension block 6 and the top of the rectangular box 10 are all provided with circular through holes 1.

Sealing ring 2 is rotatably sleeved on the adapter rod 13.

[0026] The working principle of the algae removal device provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0027] When it is necessary to clean the green algae in the water, first start the waterproof motor 8. The output shaft of the waterproof motor 8 will drive the rotating rod 11 fixedly connected to it to rotate. When the rotating rod 11 rotates, it drives the corresponding gear 15. With the cooperation of the two gears 15, the adapter rod 13 and the blade 14 will rotate together.

[0028] Then, the two electric push rods 16 are activated. The output rods of the two electric push rods 16 will simultaneously start and output outward, pushing the two rectangular blocks 17 to slide. The two rectangular blocks 17 will generate a pushing force on the two driving rods 22 through the two hinge rods 18. Under the action of the two driving rods 22, the two actuating plates 23 and the two round rods 21 will rotate. The side of the two actuating plates 23 away from the two round rods 21 will gradually rotate towards the inlet 2 until the output rods of the two electric push rods 16 are output to the appropriate position. Then, the output rods of the two electric push rods 16 will begin to retract inward, driving the two actuating plates 23 away from the inlet 2. Through the reciprocating drive of the two electric push rods 16, the two actuating plates 23 rotate around the two round rods 21 as the center. With the assistance of the two actuating plates 23, the green algae located on both sides of the outer box 1 will be pushed to the front of the inlet 2, making it easier for more green algae to enter the container box 4 through the inlet 2.

[0029] Then, the outer box 1 is placed in the water. Under the buoyancy of the hollow suspension block 6, the outer box 1 will float on the water surface. The rotating paddle 14 will generate a pushing force on the outer box 1, causing the outer box 1 to slowly slide to the left in the water. During the movement of the outer box 1, the green algae floating in the water will enter the container 4 through the inlet 2, thus completing the collection of green algae. After a certain amount of green algae is collected, the pull line 5 is pulled to the riverbank. Then, the container 4 is pulled out of the outer box 1 through the handle, so that the collected green algae can be quickly removed, which facilitates the continuous algae removal work.

[0030] Compared with related technologies, the algae removal device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0031] In this invention, a hollow suspension block 6 is provided on the outer box 1, so that the outer box 1 can float on the water surface. The waterproof motor 8 drives the paddle 14 to rotate, which can provide driving force for the outer box 1, so that the outer box 1 can slide automatically in the water. During the sliding process, the green algae floating on the water surface is collected into the container 4, and the collection of green algae is completed automatically, eliminating the need for other equipment. Algae removal can be achieved even on water surfaces far from the riverbank, making it more convenient and flexible to use.
