TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a lifting tower, in particular to a seawater lifting tower. BACKGROUND
[0002] The seawater lifting tower is a relatively important work for offshore operation, which is mainly used for introducing seawater in the sea into a workbench for operation. During the operation of a ship, seawater is an important cooling medium. After the seawater acts on the ship, the seawater lifting tower lifts the seawater to a deck seawater main pipe, thereby providing seawater for the ship leaving the sea surface.
[0003] For example, a seawater lifting tower with simple structure disclosed in Chinese patent publication No. CN211596906U includes a tower, a base and a water intake mechanism. A hollow groove is formed in the middle inner side of the tower, and protective rods are installed on the front of the tower. The base is fixed to the lower side of the tower, and a lifting mechanism is installed on the outer side of the tower. The water intake mechanism is arranged above the lifting mechanism. The seawater lifting tower with simple structure is provided with protective rods arranged in a cross shape to facilitate protection of both sides of the tower. The protective rods and the tower are connected by welding, making the connection more secure. The structure of the tower and the protective rods is relatively simple.
[0004] However, in the above-mentioned scheme, the lifting tower is inconvenient for cleaning the filter screen at the bottom of the water suction end during use, which causes garbage in seawater to easily adhere to the filter screen and affect the extraction of seawater, and the convenience is not high. SUMMARY

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
[0007] A seawater lifting tower includes a tower body, two groups of submersible pumps are installed in the tower body, the water suction end of each group of submersible pumps is connected with a water suction pipe, and the water outlet end is connected with a drainage pipe with a second electromagnetic valve. The drainage pipe of each group of submersible pumps is connected with a water guide pipe at one end, a first electromagnetic valve is installed on the water guide pipe, and the other end of the water guide pipe is communicated with the sidewall of the water suction pipe of the other group of submersible pumps.
[0008] The water guide pipe extends into the water suction pipe and is opposite to the filter screen in the water suction head at the bottom end of the water suction pipe.
[0009] The water suction pipe is arranged in a Z shape.
[0010] The bottom opening of the water suction head is larger than the top opening.
[0011] The top plate is fixed with a U-shaped fixed plate at the lower end, a motor is installed on the top plate, the motor output shaft is freely through the top plate and is connected with a threaded rod, the other end of the threaded rod is rotatably installed at the bottom of the U-shaped fixed plate; the mounting plate is threadedly connected with the threaded rod and is attached to the side walls of the U-shaped fixed plate on both sides; two groups of submersible pumps are installed on the mounting plate.
[0012] The tower body is made of stainless steel material, and a salt-resistant and corrosion-resistant coating is sprayed on the surface of the tower body.
[0013] The flow rate sensor is installed in the drain pipe.
[0014] The seawater lifting tower has the following technical effects:
[0015] 1) By arranging two sets of water pumping devices and installing water guide pipes on the water suction pipe and the drain pipe, the filter screen in the water suction head can be cleaned, so that the garbage in the seawater is prevented from adhering to the surface of the filter screen and affecting the pumping of the seawater, and the operation is simple, convenient and fast.
[0016] 2) Since the platform ship can be lifted, the height of the platform from the water surface is different in different construction periods, so the height needs to be adjusted to pump water. The screw rod mechanism can be used for lifting and adjusting the water pumping device, so that the height of the submersible pump can be adjusted, thereby facilitating the pumping of seawater.
