[0074] Working principle:
[0075] Step 1: The manifold 34 is raised and lowered by the electric push rod 33 until it is just submerged in the water. At this time, the submersible pump 37 causes the scum to flow into the separation tank 46 through the first pipe 38, the hose 39 and the rigid pipe 48 in sequence. When the scum and water flow into the separation tank 46, the water will flow back to the sewage treatment tank 10 through the filter hole 47, while the scum will remain in the separation tank 46 to achieve the treatment of the scum. During this process, the scum in other positions on the water surface will move towards the manifold 34.
[0076] Step 2: When treating the scum on the water surface, the first servo motor 25 can drive the rotating rod 23 to rotate the bridge arm 26, so that the bridge arm 26 can drive the confluence assembly 30 to rotate around the rotating rod 23 as the center point. The rotation speed should not be too fast. When the confluence assembly 30 rotates around the rotating rod 23 as the center point, it can quickly treat the scum in other positions to a certain extent, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the scum to a certain extent.
[0077] Step 3: When the scum is left in the separation box 46, the value on the pressure sensor 44 will gradually increase. After the value reaches the set value, the cleaning of the scum on the water surface will stop. At this time, the second servo motor 53 will rotate the second gear 54. After the second gear 54 rotates, the first gear 51 will drive the hollow tube 45 to rotate the separation box 46, so as to shake out the water from the scum like a washing machine spin-drying, so as to avoid wasting water resources.
[0078] Step 4: After dehydration is completed, the valve allows the scum in the separation tank 46 to fall into the collection tank 55 through the discharge pipe 50. At this time, personnel can first clean away the scum in the collection tank 55, or continue to clean the scum on the water surface. After the value on the pressure sensor 44 reaches the set value, dehydration is carried out. At this time, personnel can clean away the scum in both the collection tank 55 and the separation tank 46. Personnel can use a small boat to reach the filter assembly 40 to clean away the scum.
[0079] Furthermore, this invention is not limited to use on sewage treatment ponds, but can also be used on other water surfaces, including but not limited to use on the water surface of aquaculture ponds.

In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way.
