Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-2 A sludge removal device for sewage treatment includes a treatment box 1, a base 2 fixedly installed at the bottom of the treatment box 1, an inlet pipe 3 fixedly connected to the top left side of the treatment box 1, a drain pipe 4 fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the treatment box 1, a sedimentation chamber for sludge deposition is opened in the bottom of the treatment box 1, a sludge squeezing component 5 for squeezing sludge is installed in the sedimentation chamber, and a baffle 6 is slidably inserted into the middle of the bottom wall of the treatment box 1, with pull handles 7 fixedly installed on both sides of the baffle 6.

[0023] Please see Figure 3The sludge squeezing assembly 5 includes a support 8 fixedly installed at the bottom of the treatment tank 1 and a pressure plate 9 slidably connected in the sedimentation chamber. The upper and lower sides of the pressure plate 9 are provided with sealing gaskets, which are in close contact with the inner wall of the sedimentation chamber. The two ends of the pressure plate 9 are provided with slots, and the inner wall of the sedimentation chamber is provided with guide strips corresponding to the slots. The pressure plate 9 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide strips through the slots. A two-way cylinder 10 is fixedly installed inside the support 8. A connecting plate 11 is fixedly installed at both telescopic ends of the two-way cylinder 10. A connecting rod 12 is fixedly installed between the top of the connecting plate 11 and the end of the pressure plate 9. By starting the two-way cylinder 10, the connecting plate 11 will be driven to move closer to each other, and then the pressure plate 9 will be driven to move closer to each other along the sedimentation chamber through the connecting rod 12. Therefore, the sludge in the sedimentation chamber will be squeezed, and the water in the sludge will be squeezed out, making the sludge form and easy to discharge.

[0024] Please see Figure 4 The drain pipe 4 is inserted into the treatment box 1 at one end and is equipped with a filter assembly for filtering sludge. The filter assembly filters the sludge during water pumping to prevent it from being pumped out with the water. The filter assembly includes a fixed shell 13 fixedly installed at the end of the drain pipe 4. The fixed shell 13 has a groove 14 inside, and an annular shell 15 is embedded inside the groove 14. A filter screen 16 is installed inside the annular shell 15. Support plates 17 are arrayed on the outer side of the annular shell 15. Limiting posts 18 are fixedly installed at the end of the support plates 17. The surface of the fixed shell 13 has an arc groove 19 corresponding to the array of limiting posts 18. Installation can be completed by rotating the limiting posts 18 into the arc groove 19. Similarly, disassembly can be completed by rotating in the opposite direction, which is convenient and quick.

[0025] In use, sewage is first discharged through the inlet pipe 3. After treatment and sedimentation, the surface sewage is pumped out through the drain pipe 4. The remaining sludge is deposited in the sedimentation chamber. At this time, the bidirectional cylinder 10 is activated to drive the connecting plate 11 to move closer together. Then, the connecting rod 12 drives the pressure plate 9 to move closer together along the sedimentation chamber, so the sludge in the sedimentation chamber is squeezed, the water in the sludge is squeezed out and the sludge is formed. Then, the handle 7 can be pulled to pull out the baffle 6, and the formed sludge inside will fall out from the bottom and be discharged.

[0026] During drainage, the filter assembly filters the water to prevent sludge from being drawn out. The installation is completed by rotating the limiting post 18 into the arc groove 19. The limiting post 18 can be easily removed by rotating it in the opposite direction, making it easy to replace and install.

[0027] In summary, this sludge discharge device for wastewater treatment, by activating the bidirectional cylinder 10, drives the connecting plate 11 to move closer together, which in turn drives the pressure plate 9 to move closer together along the sedimentation chamber via the connecting rod 12. This squeezes the sludge in the sedimentation chamber, expelling the water from the sludge and shaping it. Then, by pulling the handle 7 to pull out the baffle 6, the shaped sludge inside will fall from the bottom and be discharged, facilitating subsequent sludge treatment.

[0028] The filter assembly filters the sludge during drainage, preventing it from being pumped out along with the water. Installation is completed by rotating the limiting post 18 into the arc groove 19. Reversing the limiting post 18 allows for easy removal, facilitating cleaning, replacement, and installation while preventing sludge blockage.
