Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water algae treatment technology, and in particular to an algae interception device for controlling eutrophication of water. Background Technology
[0002] Eutrophication is one of the most serious water environment problems facing the world. Influenced by natural or anthropogenic factors, the levels of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus in water bodies increase, leading to the rapid proliferation of phytoplankton under nutrient-rich conditions. Globally, 30%-40% of lakes and reservoirs are affected by eutrophication to varying degrees. Massive algal blooms not only cause a sharp decline in dissolved oxygen levels and the death of large numbers of aquatic organisms, leading to water quality deterioration, but can also result in algal blooms, impacting the aquatic landscape and ecological balance. Due to various limitations of existing technologies, a specialized algal interception device is needed to control the spread and accumulation of algae in localized, sporadic blooms or within a specific area.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN219524188U discloses a vessel for salvaging floating debris. By installing detachable salvage nets on the hull, different nets can be selected and installed on both sides of the hull according to the size and type of floating debris, resulting in thorough and efficient cleaning. During the salvage process, the nets can be disassembled, and the floating debris can be directly emptied into the hull without returning to shore, saving time and increasing efficiency. It is suitable for salvaging floating debris on lakes, rivers, and the sea, with a wide range of applications. This salvage vessel saves time and labor, cleans thoroughly, and has high work efficiency.
[0004] The existing technology has the following problems:
[0005] Existing technology uses salvage nets to intercept suspended objects on the water surface. The opening of the salvage net faces the direction of the salvage vessel's movement, and when the vessel stops, the suspended objects in the net are easily released.
[0006] Current technology for removing suspended debris from nets requires manual cleaning at regular intervals, which is not convenient. Utility Model Content

[0027] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0028] like Figures 1-5 As shown, an algae interception device for controlling eutrophication of water includes a hull 1, an algae collection component 2 fixedly installed at the upper end of the hull 1, and an algae interception component 3 fixedly installed at the front and rear of the algae collection component 2.
[0029] The algae collection assembly 2 includes two fixing plates 21. The lower ends of the two fixing plates 21 are fixedly installed at the front and rear positions of the upper left part of the hull 1. The top of each of the two fixing plates 21 is fixedly installed with an mounting plate 22. The upper and lower parts of the opposite sides of the two mounting plates 22 are movably connected to an inclined electric conveyor belt 23. An inclined guide plate 24 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the right side of the opposite sides of the two mounting plates 22.
[0030] The algae interception component 3 includes two fixed frames 31. The right side of the two fixed frames 31 is fixedly installed with the left side of the two fixed plates 21. A support frame 32 is fixedly installed at the left end of each of the two fixed frames 31. A rotating shaft 33 passing through the top of the two support frames 32 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of each of the two support frames 32. An interception filter plate 34 is fixedly sleeved in the middle of the outer wall of each of the two rotating shafts 33. The two interception filter plates 34 are located in front and behind the bottom of the electric conveyor belt 23. An adjustment mechanism is fixedly connected to the top of the outer wall of each of the two rotating shafts 33.
[0031] The algae collection component 2 intercepts and collects algae on the water surface. An electric conveyor belt 23 transports the suspended algae upwards, and a guide plate 24 guides the algae on the conveyor belt to slide to the right, allowing the suspended matter to fall through the feed chute 27 of the collection box 26 onto the filter screen. The filter screen separates algae from water, and the triangular guide seat 211 and water outlet accelerate drainage, reducing water content and facilitating subsequent processing or transportation. The algae interception component 3 gathers the suspended algae between two interception filter plates 34, facilitating transport by the electric conveyor belt 23. The adjustment mechanism, via a fixed rod 37 inserted into different holes in the rotating column 35, allows for rotation of the rotating shaft 33 to adjust the opening angle of the interception filter plates 34, adapting to different river channel sizes.
[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the outer surface of the electric conveyor belt 23 has a porous structure, and several baffles 25 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the electric conveyor belt 23.
[0033] The electric conveyor belt 23 is inclined and has a porous outer surface. When driven upward by the motor, it can roll algae on the water surface onto the conveyor belt with the water flow. The baffle 25 prevents the algae from slipping off, thus achieving efficient harvesting.
[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, a collection box 26 is fixedly installed on the upper right side of the hull 1. A feed chute 27 with a matching guide plate 24 is opened through the top left side of the collection box 26. Positioning plates 28 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the four sides of the inner wall of the collection box 26. The upper ends of the four positioning plates 28 are connected to the connecting frame 29. A filter screen is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting frame 29. A pull rod 210 is fixedly installed at the four corners of the upper end of the connecting frame 29.
[0035] When the algae reach the highest point of the electric conveyor belt 23, they fall onto the guide plate 24 due to gravity. The guide plate 24 guides the algae on the conveyor belt to slide to the right and fall into the feed trough 27 of the collection box 26. The filter screen separates the algae from the water, and the triangular guide seat 211 and the water outlet accelerate drainage. After cleaning the algae, the user can use the four pull rods 210 to remove the connecting frame 29 for easy maintenance and cleaning.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, a triangular guide seat 211 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the collection box 26, which guides to the left and right. Several water outlet holes with matching triangular guide seats 211 are opened through the bottom right side of the collection box 26.
[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment mechanism includes two rotating columns 35. The inner walls of the two rotating columns 35 are fixedly sleeved with the top of the outer walls of the two rotating shafts 33. The outer walls of the two rotating columns 35 are provided with several insertion holes arranged in a ring. The upper ends of the two support frames 32 are fixedly installed with protective covers 36. The two rotating columns 35 are located inside the protective covers 36. The right middle part of the two protective covers 36 is slidably connected with a fixing rod 37 with several matching insertion holes.
[0038] By inserting the fixed rod 37 into different holes of the rotating column 35, the opening angle of the intercepting filter plate 34 can be adjusted by rotating the rotating shaft 33.
[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, limit blocks 38 are fixedly installed on the left side of the outer wall of each of the two fixed rods 37, and springs 39 are movably sleeved on the left side of the outer wall of each of the two fixed rods 37. The left ends of the two springs 39 are fixedly connected to the right sides of the two limit blocks 38, and the right ends of the two springs 39 are fixedly connected to the right side of the inner wall of the two protective covers 36.
[0040] The protective cover 36 protects the internal regulating mechanism from water corrosion, and the spring 39 and the limit block 38 ensure that the fixing rod 37 remains locked after being inserted into the socket, preventing the filter plate 34 from shifting due to water flow impact.
[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, glass plates 310 are adhered to the top of the inner walls of both protective covers 36.
[0042] The glass plate 310 allows the user to observe the rotation of the rotating column 35, which helps to align the fixing rod 37 with the designated socket during adjustment.
[0043] The working principle of this invention is as follows: During use, the opening angle of the two intercepting filter plates 34 can be adjusted according to the width of the water area, thereby expanding the algae interception range. The user pulls the fixing rod 37, inserts it into different holes of the rotating column 35, and rotates the rotating shaft 33 to adjust the opening angle of the intercepting filter plates 34. Subsequently, the hull 1 is placed in the designated water area, allowing the hull to turn and move in the water. The electric conveyor belt 23 starts, transporting the algae suspended on the water surface upwards. As the hull 1 moves, the two intercepting filter plates 34 can gather the suspended algae between them, improving the conveying efficiency of the electric conveyor belt 23. The guide plate 24 guides the algae on the conveyor belt to slide to the right, allowing the suspended matter to fall through the feed trough 27 of the collection box 26 onto the filter screen. The filter screen separates algae from water, and the triangular guide seat 211 and the water outlet accelerate drainage, reducing the moisture content and facilitating subsequent processing or transportation.
[0044] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
