Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of environmental protection equipment technology, and in particular relates to a device for inhibiting the growth of Spirogyra. Background Technology

[0002] Conventional methods for treating Spirogyra include physical removal and chemical control. However, Spirogyra reproduces through fragmentation; its filaments break into short filaments due to mechanical damage or other reasons. Each short filament then grows into a long filament through cell division. Therefore, physical removal accelerates Spirogyra's growth and reproduction, leading to an ever-increasing population. Commonly used chemical agents include copper sulfate and permanganate. However, over time, this water treatment method leads to the emergence of drug-resistant algae in the water, gradually reducing the effectiveness of the algicides. This necessitates shorter intervals between applications, increasing the dosage, and frequent changes in the type of algicide. Furthermore, it causes secondary pollution and has high long-term operating costs. Considering the aesthetic value of landscape water features and public health, this treatment method should be avoided whenever possible.

[0003] Bamboo powder fermentation has a certain effect on inhibiting the growth of Spirogyra, mainly through improving water quality, regulating pH, and providing competition for beneficial microorganisms. This inhibition method requires manually applying the bamboo powder fermentation to the Spirogyra growth site to deprive it of its acidic environment; however, manual application is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, we propose an automated device for applying bamboo powder fermentation to inhibit Spirogyra growth. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the problems in the prior art by proposing the following technical solution:

[0005] A Spirogyra growth inhibition device includes a floating platform. Above the floating platform are several circular parabolic platters connected together by a connecting frame. The diameter of the circular parabolic platters increases from bottom to top, and each circular parabolic platter has a parabolic opening on its side wall. Each of the circular parabolic platters has one or more centrifugal push plates inside. The floating platform is equipped with a drive mechanism for controlling the rotation of the centrifugal push plates.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the driving mechanism includes a motor, which is fixedly connected to the floating platform, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to an outer sleeve, which passes through the bottom of the circular parabolic platform and is fixedly connected to the centrifugal push plate.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a storage box is provided above the circular parabolic table, and a support arm is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the storage box. The end of the support arm away from the storage box is fixedly connected to the circular parabolic table.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a feeding pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box. The feeding pipe is inserted into the outer sleeve, and the feeding pipe has several second discharge ports. The outer sleeve has several first discharge ports corresponding to the size of the second discharge ports.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] 1. This utility model uses a combination of a multi-layered circular parabolic platform and a centrifugal pusher to automatically launch slow-release balls containing bamboo powder fermentation material into water within different ranges. When the slow-release balls land on the Spirogyra at the bottom of the water, the bamboo powder fermentation material will slowly release allelochemicals to inhibit the growth of Spirogyra, which not only saves time but also reduces labor costs.

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0017] Example

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the Spirogyra growth inhibition device includes a floating platform 1. Above the floating platform 1, there are several circular parabolic platters 2 connected together by connecting frames 3. The diameter of the several circular parabolic platters 2 increases from bottom to top, and each circular parabolic platters 2 has a parabolic opening 21 on its side wall. Each of them has one or more centrifugal push plates 6 installed inside. The floating platform 1 is equipped with a drive mechanism for controlling the rotation of the centrifugal push plates 6.

[0019] It should be noted that the bottom of the floating platform 1 is equipped with a counterweight to prevent it from drifting away with the water flow. The circular parabolic platform 2 is used to release the slow-release ball. The slow-release ball is spherical with a diameter of 2cm. It is made by pressing bamboo powder fermentation material into a gel substance formed by sodium alginate and calcium ions. When it is put into the water, the slow-release ball will fall freely onto the Spirogyra at the bottom of the water. The bamboo powder fermentation material will slowly release allelochemicals to inhibit the growth of Spirogyra. The allelochemicals can be released from the slow-release ball within 15 days.

[0020] Specifically, when the drive mechanism rotates the centrifugal pusher plate 6, since the diameter of each layer of the circular parabolic platform 2 and the length of the centrifugal pusher plate 6 are different, the longer the diameter of the circular parabolic platform 2 and the length of the centrifugal pusher plate 6, the greater the centrifugal force generated by the centrifugal pusher plate 6 pushing the slow-release ball, and the farther it is thrown. Therefore, the slow-release ball of each layer will be thrown farther and farther from bottom to top, and evenly sprinkled to the bottom of the water to inhibit the growth of water sponge.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a motor 4, which is fixedly connected to the floating platform 1. The output end of the motor 4 is fixedly connected to an outer sleeve 5, which passes through the bottom of the circular parabolic platform 2 and is fixedly connected to the centrifugal push plate 6.

[0022] Specifically, the motor 4 controls the centrifugal pusher 6 to rotate through the outer sleeve 5. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the centrifugal pusher 6 will push the slow-release ball located inside the circular parabolic platform 2 to be thrown out from the parabolic opening 21.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a storage box 7 is provided above the circular parabolic table 2. A support arm 9 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the storage box 7. The end of the support arm 9 away from the storage box 7 is fixedly connected to the circular parabolic table 2.

[0024] It should be noted that the top of the storage bin 7 is equipped with a sealing cover, and a sealing ring is provided between the sealing cover and the storage bin 7 and is connected by a snap fastener to prevent water from splashing into the interior of the storage bin 7.

[0025] Specifically, the storage bin 7 is funnel-shaped, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and only one slow-release ball can enter the interior of the circular parabolic platform 2 through the bottom opening of the storage bin 7 at a time.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a feeding pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box 7. The feeding pipe 8 is inserted into the outer sleeve 5, and the feeding pipe 8 has several second discharge ports 81. The outer sleeve 5 has several first discharge ports 51 that correspond to the size of the second discharge ports 81.

[0027] It should be noted that the bottom of the feed pipe 8 is provided with an inclined slide, and the lower part of the slide is close to the second discharge port 81, so that the slow-release ball at the bottom can pass through the second discharge port 81 at the bottom and enter the interior of the circular parabolic table 2.

[0028] Specifically, the number of first discharge ports 51 and second discharge ports 81 is the same as the number of circular parabolic pedestals 2. When the first discharge port 51 and the second discharge port 81 are aligned, the slow-release ball will fall into the interior of the circular parabolic pedestal 2 and be thrown into the water by the centrifugal pusher plate 6. The first discharge ports 51 are arranged in a spiral, and the second discharge ports 81 are all located on the same side, so that the slow-release ball will not fall into the interior of different layers of circular parabolic pedestals 2 at the same time, thus preventing multiple slow-release balls from being thrown into the water at the same time and avoiding affecting their respective movement trajectories.

[0029] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
