[0036] The application changes the traditional horizontal flow sedimentation tank 1 with flat bottom into a sedimentation tank with rectangular sludge groove 101, which can accommodate sludge in layers, and adds X-shaped mud scraping plate 3, so that part of the sludge on the bottom plane of the horizontal flow sedimentation tank 1 above the sludge groove 101 is scraped into the sludge groove 101 and collected to the center of the X-shaped center, and then the sludge is sucked out of the sedimentation tank by the suction device 2.

[0037] The suction device 2 is specially matched with the sludge suction port of the sludge groove 101, the transverse pipe 6 connected with the mud pumping pipe 5 is arranged, and the sludge with low water content in the sludge groove 101 is sucked into the horizontal flow sedimentation tank 1 through the suction port 601 similar to the suction port of the dust collector, so as to increase the amount of sludge sucked out of the bottom of the sedimentation tank, greatly improve the concentration of the sludge sucked out, reduce the running frequency of the scraping and sucking machine, and save the operation cost of the enterprise.

[0038] In the preferred embodiment, the upper end of the mud pumping pipe 5 is provided with a conical interface 501, the lower end of the mud pumping port 401 extends into the upper end of the mud pumping pipe 5 and abuts against the conical surface in the conical interface 501, and a sealing ring 502 is further arranged between the upper end of the conical interface 501 and the mud pumping port 401.

[0039] In the preferred embodiment, the mud pumping pump 4 is slidably connected with the guide rail 801 through a side coupling device 8, so as to allow the mud pumping pump 4 to move up and down in the vertical direction, when the mud pumping pump 4 falls to the bottom end, the mud pumping port 401 is inserted into the conical interface 501 at the upper end of the mud pumping pipe 5.

[0040] The suction device 2 is a liftable structure, the mud pumping pipe 5 can move on the water surface through the coupling device 8, so as to adjust the suction height, and the guide rail 801 is used for assisting the vertical up-down lifting of the mud pumping pump 4 without deviation, when the mud pumping pump 4 vertically falls, the mud pumping pipe 5 is inserted into the conical interface 501 through the center of the sealing ring 502 and connected, so as to achieve a certain sealing effect, the mud pumping pump 4, the mud pumping pipe 5 and the transverse pipe 6 are connected, and a mud pumping channel is formed.

[0041] The suction pump 4 is suspended in the air by a self-coupling system and uses its own weight to press the sealing ring 502 tightly to ensure reliable sealing between the pipes. After use, the suction pump 4 is installed for easy maintenance. Maintenance personnel do not need to go down to disassemble the suction pump 4. The suction pump 4 is directly lifted by the guide rail 801 on the coupling device 8 for maintenance.

The width of the gap is matched with the power of the suction pump 4 to obtain a larger suction pressure at the suction port. The angle of the gap is 45° to the horizontal direction to prevent the straight surface of the suction port from being blocked by debris at the bottom of the sludge tank 101. The inclined surface is directed to the length direction of the sludge tank 101 to extrude the sludge as the suction device 2 moves in the direction of travel, thereby improving the sludge suction efficiency.

The plurality of rectangular trusses 1001 are connected with the sludge suction device 2 and the walking mechanism 9 through the end frames 1002 at both ends, respectively.
