Drain garbage collector

Abstract

A drain garbage collector of the invention includes a frame, a top grate, a separator grate, and a collector grate. A plurality of passages are defined through the top grate let the roadside garbage pass through. The separator grate prevents garbage from flowing out of the garbage collector via filtering wastewater flow. Thereby, the garbage collector collects garbage and the collected garbage can be cleaned regularly to prevent inundation caused by jammed drain.

Description

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention[0002] The invention relates to a drain garbage collector. More particularly, the invention provides a drain garbage collector that can effectively collect drain garbage while preventing inundation caused by garbage jam.[0003] 2. Description of the Related Art[0004] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, two perspective views illustrate the structure of a conventional drain garbage collector disclosed in the Taiwan Patent No. 197035. The known garbage collector comprises a frame structure 1, a retainer basin 2, and a drain cover grate 3.[0005] The retainer basin 2 is mounted to the frame structure 1, and hence theassembled structure is covered by the drain cover grate 3 defining a plurality of holes 31 and placed within the drain, as shown as in FIG. 2, to collect roadside garbage. The above conventional drain garbage collector can therefore receive and contain garbage, but is not effective to filter flowing garbage in the drain itself.[0006] Moreover, if th...

Benefits of technology

[0008] To accomplish the above and other objectives, a drain garbage collector of the invention comprises a frame, a top grate, a separator grate, and a collector grate, each of whom is assembled with one another. A plurality of passages are defined through the top grate to enable garbage to flow into the collector grate. The separator grate prevents garbage from flowing out of the garbage collector. Thereby, the garbage collector of the present invention is able to collect garbage and prevent inundation caused by jammed drain.

Problems solved by technology

The above conventional drain garbage collector can therefore receive and contain garbage, but is not effective to filter flowing garbage in the drain itself.

Moreover, if the flowing drain garbage obstructs the lateral filter net 11 of the frame structure 1 (shown in FIG. 1), water flown into the frame structure 1 is not able to flow through the drain because of being blocked by the lateral side drain garbage, causing inundation.
