[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-3The present invention provides an embodiment of a continuous flow sand filter, comprising a filter body 1, a pneumatic sand lifting pump 3 at the top of the filter body 1, the pneumatic sand lifting pump 3 using compressed air as a power source to efficiently lift the sand particles deposited inside the filter body 1, avoiding long-term accumulation of sand particles that affects filtration efficiency, a sand washer 4 at the bottom of the pneumatic sand lifting pump 3, the sand washer 4 having multiple layers of filter screens and a spray structure inside, which can clean the sand particles delivered by the pneumatic sand lifting pump 3 and remove impurities attached to the surface of the sand particles, a sand-water diverter sleeve 5 at the bottom of the sand-water diverter sleeve 5, and a water distributor 6 at the bottom of the sand-water diverter sleeve 5, which can evenly disperse the water to be filtered into the filtration area below, ensuring full utilization of the filtration area;

[0033] Furthermore, the water distributor 6 has multiple T-shaped grooves inside, which are of equal size and arranged in a circular array inside the water distributor 6. The T-shaped grooves have through holes, through which the liquid inside the water distributor 6 is transported. A connecting block 10 is inserted into the water distributor 6. The connecting block 10 is T-shaped and is inserted into the T-shaped groove. The side wall of the connecting block 10 has a connecting hole that contacts the through hole. The arrangement of the T-shaped grooves and the connecting block 10 allows the water distributor 6 to transport the liquid inside to the connecting block 10. A fixing block is provided on the top of the connecting block 10. The fixing block is arc-shaped. A branch pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting block 10. The liquid inside the water distributor 6 is transported to the branch pipe 7 through the connecting hole. The liquid inside the branch pipe 7 is discharged through the drain hole at the bottom of the branch pipe 7.

[0034] Furthermore, a sand distributor 8 is installed at the bottom of the water distributor 6, corresponding vertically to the water distributor 6. The sand distributor 8 evenly spreads the cleaned sand particles onto the surface of the filter layer, forming a stable filter media layer to intercept impurities in the water. An air lift pump 9 is installed at the bottom of the sand distributor 8, and a positioning mechanism 11 is installed at the top of the water distributor 6. This mechanism is mainly used to lift the water below the sand distributor 8 and assist in adjusting the water flow speed and pressure within the filtration system. A cleaning component 12 is installed on the side wall of the branch pipe 7, and a water inlet 13 is opened on the side wall of the filter body 1. A flow control valve is installed at the filter body 1, allowing staff to adjust the inlet water flow according to filtration needs and prevent the inlet water from exceeding the filter's processing capacity. A flushing port 14 is provided on the side wall of the filter body 1. The flushing port 14 is mainly used to inject high-pressure water during the backwashing stage of the filter to flush away impurities trapped in the filter media and restore filtration performance. An inlet pipe 2 is provided on the side wall of the flushing port 14, and a filtrate 15 is provided on the side wall of the filter body 1. A water quality detection sensor is installed at the outlet of the filtrate 15 to monitor the purity of the filtered water in real time.

[0035] Reference Figures 3-4The positioning mechanism 11 includes a positioning block 111. The bottom of the positioning block 111 is rotatably connected to the top of the water distributor 6. The positioning block 111 rotates on the top of the water distributor 6 through a bearing. The bottom of the positioning block 111 has an arc-shaped fixing groove. The fixing block is inserted into the arc-shaped fixing groove. The fixing block and the fixing groove are designed to ensure that the positioning block 111 is stably limited after being inserted into the water distributor 6. The top of the water distributor 6 is fixedly connected to a positioning plate 112. The side wall of the positioning block 111 is elastically connected to the side wall of the positioning plate 112 through a positioning spring 113. Pushing the positioning block 111 compresses the positioning spring 113, causing the positioning spring 113 to deform. When resetting, the rebound of the positioning spring 113 causes the positioning block 111 to slide and reset.

[0036] Reference Figures 3-5 The cleaning component 12 includes a connecting frame 121. The side wall of the connecting frame 121 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the branch pipe 7 using a welding process, ensuring the strong connection between the connecting frame 121 and the branch pipe 7. A movable rod 122 is slidably connected inside the connecting frame 121. A connecting hole is provided inside the connecting frame 121, through which the movable rod 122 passes and is slidably connected. The connecting hole allows the movable rod 122 to slide stably inside the connecting frame 121. The end of the movable rod 122 is connected by a return spring 1. 23 is elastically connected to the side wall of the connecting frame 121. After pushing the moving rod 122, it squeezes the return spring 123, causing the return spring 123 to deform. During reset, the rebound of the return spring 123 drives the moving rod 122 to slide and reset. The other end of the moving rod 122 is fixedly connected to a cleaning plate 124. A cleaning pad is provided on the top of the cleaning plate 124. The top of the cleaning pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the branch pipe 7. The cleaning pad is used to clean the bottom of the branch pipe 7, improving the cleanliness of the branch pipe 7 during use.

[0037] Working principle: During use, raw water enters from the bottom of the filter body 1 and passes through the quartz sand filter bed inside the filter body 1 from bottom to top. The pores of the sand layer trap suspended solids, colloids and other impurities in the water. The filtered clean water is discharged from the top. As filtration proceeds, the impurities in the bottom sand layer increase. The dirty sand is pumped to the top sand washer 4 by the air lift pump 9. The sand washer 4 uses recycled water to spray and wash the dirty sand to remove the attached impurities. The wastewater generated is discharged directly. The clean sand falls back to the top of the filter bed by gravity and participates in filtration again. The water distributor 6 and branch pipes 7 are set to distribute the water flow evenly, so that the sand particles in each area of ​​the filter bed can trap impurities evenly. The entire process of "dirty sand lifting-washing-clean sand falling" is synchronized with filtration, forming a closed loop and realizing 24-hour continuous operation.

[0038] When the branch pipe 7 is worn and damaged after long-term use, the positioning block 111 is rotated and the positioning spring 113 is squeezed, causing the positioning spring 113 to deform and the connecting block 10 is pulled out from the inside of the water distributor 6, which satisfies the disassembly of a single branch pipe 7 and improves the uniformity of the water distributor 6 and branch pipe 7 during use.

[0039] When the branch pipe 7 becomes clogged after prolonged use, pushing the moving rod 122 will squeeze the reset spring 123 and drive the cleaning plate 124 to move. The cleaning plate 124 will clean the bottom of the branch pipe 7 during the movement, thus preventing the branch pipe 7 from becoming clogged due to prolonged use, which would lead to uneven water distribution and reduced water production, thereby improving the uniformity of water distribution in the branch pipe 7.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
