Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hydraulic equipment, and specifically relates to a port breakwater. Background Technology

[0002] A breakwater is a structure built in the waters surrounding a port to block the impact of waves, protect the harbor basin, maintain a stable water surface, and protect the port from bad weather, so as to ensure the safe berthing and operation of ships. It ensures that there is sufficient water depth and a stable water surface in the port to meet the needs of ships to berth, carry out loading and unloading operations, and navigate in and out of the port.

[0003] In deep waters, vertical breakwaters are required, meaning they are perpendicular to the sea level. Debris and pollutants from the ocean accumulate at the interface between the breakwater and the seawater due to wave action, affecting the aesthetics of the port environment. Structures are needed near the port to regularly collect garbage, but current practices rely on manual, time-consuming, and labor-intensive methods. Alternatively, the garbage collection devices within the breakwater structure are typically fixed in one location, unable to adapt to changes in water level. As the water level rises or falls, these devices cannot filter surface debris, limiting their usability.

[0004] Therefore, if a breakwater structure with a filtration structure that can change position with the water level can be provided, it will have great potential for practical application. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the technical means used in the embodiments are conventional means well known to those skilled in the art.

[0026] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this invention, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention.

[0027] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this invention discloses a port breakwater, including a salvage component and a collection component. The salvage component is used to collect garbage floating on the sea surface and reaching the breakwater 1, and the collection component is used to collect garbage transferred by the salvage component. The salvage component includes a retractable first baffle that extends and retracts with changes in sea level. The first baffle is positioned along the length of the breakwater 1 and close to its lower part. A rotatable cylinder 8 is provided on the top of the first baffle. The cylinder 8 is driven to rotate by a drive component. Several arc-shaped grooves are evenly distributed around the outer periphery of the cylinder 8 for accommodating and filling garbage. The collection component includes a connecting notch 13 and a collection cylinder 24. The connecting notch 13 is located on the side wall of the breakwater 1 facing the seawater. A connecting hole 23 is provided on the side wall of the connecting notch 13 away from the first baffle, and the connecting hole 23 is used to connect the collection cylinder 24 and the connecting notch 13. Garbage on the sea surface floats with the waves into the arc-shaped groove. The drive component drives the rotating drum 8 to rotate in the direction of the connecting notch. The garbage in the arc-shaped groove enters the collection cylinder 24 through the connecting notch 13 and the connecting hole 23 in sequence. The collection cylinder 24 collects and stores the garbage.

[0028] It should be noted that, in addition to the seawater being poured into the connecting gap 13 from the arc-shaped groove, the seawater is blocked outside due to the setting of the first baffle, preventing the seawater from entering the connecting gap 13, the connecting hole 23 and the collecting cylinder 24.

[0029] Specifically, the axis of the rotating cylinder 8 is parallel to the length direction of the first baffle. The top of the first baffle has an upward-facing inverted "U"-shaped opening, and the rotating cylinder 8 is rotatably positioned within this opening. The two ends of the rotating shaft 9 of the rotating cylinder 8 are rotatably mounted on the sidewall of the first baffle via bearings. It should be noted that part of the rotating cylinder 8 is above the sea surface, and another part is below the sea surface. A preferred technical solution is that four arc-shaped grooves are evenly distributed around the outer periphery of the rotating cylinder 8.

[0030] The driving assembly includes a slide rod 27 and a float 30. A second bracket 34 is disposed on one side wall of the first baffle near its top. The slide rod 27 is fixedly disposed on the second bracket 34 and located on one side of the rotating cylinder 8. The float 30 is slidably disposed on the slide rod 27. A first fixing block 33 is fixedly disposed on the slide rod 27 and located below the float 30. A plurality of first springs 32 are fixedly disposed on the first fixing block 33, and the other end of the first springs 32 is fixedly disposed on the lower surface of the float 30. The rotating cylinder 8 is rotatably disposed on a rotating shaft 9. The two ends of the rotating shaft 9 are rotatably disposed on the first baffle. One end of the rotating shaft 9 extends out of the side wall of the first baffle and is fixedly disposed on a rotating wheel 36. When the float 30 slides upward on the slide rod 27, the side wall of the float 30 drives the rotating wheel 36 to rotate.

[0031] The floating plate 30 floats up and down on the slide bar 27 with the waves. When the floating plate 30 slides upward on the slide bar 27 with the waves, the first spring 32 is stretched, and the floating plate 30 drives the rotating drum 8 to rotate toward the connecting notch 13. When the floating plate 30 moves to the highest point of the slide bar 27, the floating plate 30 slides downward on the slide bar 27 under the stretching action of the first spring 32. During this process, the rotating drum 8 does not rotate. The wave energy is used to pour the garbage in the arc-shaped groove into the connecting notch 13, and then into the collection cylinder 24 through the connecting hole 23.

[0032] The rotating wheel 36 is a ratchet. A first groove 38 is provided on the side wall of the float 30 at the position where it engages with the ratchet. A second spring 39 is disposed within the first groove 38. A limiting block 40 is provided at the other end of the second spring 39. The lower end of the limiting block 40, near the ratchet, has an arc-shaped surface. When the float 30 slides upwards on the slide bar 27 to the position where it engages with the ratchet, the second spring 39 is in its natural state. One end of the limiting block 40 is located within the first groove 38, and the other part is located outside the first groove 38 and engages with the ratchet, causing the ratchet to rotate towards the connecting notch 13, emptying the waste from the arc-shaped groove into the connecting notch 13. When the float 30 slides downwards on the slide bar 27 under the tension of the first spring 32 to the position where it engages with the ratchet, the ratchet presses against the lower end of the limiting block 40, forcing the limiting block 40 into the first groove 38, and the rotating wheel 36 does not rotate.

[0033] In the preferred technical solution, the limiting block 40 is a ratchet tooth that meshes with the ratchet.

[0034] The first baffle includes a fixed plate 15 and a movable plate 14. The upper surface of the fixed plate 15 is provided with a third groove 16, and the lower end of the movable plate 14 is slidably disposed within the third groove 16. A sliding groove 17 is provided within the third groove 16 along its length direction. The lower end of the movable plate is provided with a slider 18 corresponding to the sliding groove 17. The slider 18 slides within the sliding groove 17, restricting the position of the movable plate 14 in the vertical direction and preventing the movable plate 14 from sliding out of the third groove 16.

[0035] A floating assembly is fixedly installed on the upper end of the movable plate 14. The floating assembly includes floats 12 and first supports 10. The first supports 10 are symmetrically fixed on the two side walls of the movable plate 14. A first connecting rod 11 is provided between the two first supports 10, and several floats 12 are provided on the first connecting rod 11. The floats 12 are located on the side of the first baffle away from the communicating gap 13. By setting the floats 12, the floats 12 move up and down with the sea level, driving the movable plate 14 to move up and down within the third groove 16.

[0036] To facilitate the entry of waste into the collection cylinder 24, the upper and lower sidewalls of the connecting notch 13 are sloped. The upper sidewall of the connecting notch 13 is sloped to prevent waves from splashing onto the upper surface of the embankment 1. The lower sidewall of the connecting notch 13 is sloped to facilitate the entry of waste into the connecting hole 23. A second baffle 20 is hinged to the sidewall of the first baffle facing the connecting notch 13 and near the top of the fixing plate 15. A third spring 21 is provided on the lower surface of the second baffle 20, and the other end of the third spring 21 is fixed to the lower sidewall of the connecting notch 13. A second fixing block 19 is provided on the sidewall of the connecting notch 13 facing the first baffle, and the second fixing block 19 restricts the rotation position of the second baffle 20. In the natural state, i.e., when there is no waste in the connecting notch 13 and above the second baffle 20, the third spring 21 is in a compressed state, the upper surface of the second baffle 20 abuts against the second fixing block 19, and the second baffle 20 is in a horizontal state. When there is a certain amount of garbage and seawater in the connecting gap 13 and above the second baffle, the third spring 21 continues to be compressed, the second baffle 20 rotates downward, the connecting hole 23 connects with the connecting gap 13, and the garbage and seawater above the first baffle enter the connecting hole 23 and finally enter the collection cylinder 24.

[0037] The upper and lower sidewalls of the connecting hole 23 are sloped to facilitate the entry of waste into the collection cylinder 24. A water storage tank 26 with an upward-facing opening is provided at the lower end of the connecting hole 23, and several filter holes 22 are provided on the lower sidewall of the connecting hole 23. When waste passes through the lower sidewall of the connecting hole 23, the seawater attached to the waste enters the water storage tank 26 through the filter holes 22 for storage. By providing filter holes 22, the seawater attached to the waste can be further filtered, allowing the collection cylinder 24 to store more waste.

[0038] The embankment 1 is provided with a second groove 5 with the opening facing upward. The collection cylinder 24 is located at the bottom of the second groove 5. An opening is provided on the side wall of the second groove 5 facing the connecting hole 23 and above the collection cylinder 24. The opening communicates with the connecting hole 23.

[0039] A cover 4 is provided at the top of the second groove 5, and a hook 2 is provided on the inner side wall of the second groove 5 near the top. A steel rope 3 is fixedly installed at the top of the collection cylinder 24, and the other end of the steel rope 3 is attached to the hook 2. When the collection cylinder 24 is full of garbage, the cover 4 is opened, the steel rope 3 is removed from the hook 2, and the collection cylinder 24 is lifted to the top of the second groove 5 by pulling the top of the steel rope 3, and then removed from the second groove 5. After emptying the garbage from the collection cylinder 24, the collection cylinder 24 is lowered to the bottom of the second groove 5 by the steel rope 3, and the cover 4 is closed.

[0040] The water storage tank 26 has a drain outlet 25 at its bottom. A drain pipe 7 is installed inside the embankment 1. One end of the drain pipe 7 is connected to the drain outlet 25, and the other end extends out of the embankment 1. A drain pump 6 is installed on the drain pipe 7. The length of the end of the drain pipe 7 extending out of the embankment 1 is greater than the width of the first baffle, so that the seawater coming out of the drain pipe 7 directly enters the seawater and does not enter the connecting gap 13. The seawater in the water storage tank 26 is periodically discharged into the seawater by the drain pump 6.

[0041] The inner diameter of the second groove 5 is larger than the outer diameter of the collection cylinder 24. A first drain hole 29 is provided on the side wall of the collection cylinder 24 near its bottom. A second drain hole 28 is provided on the side wall of the water storage tank 26 near its top. Seawater in the collection cylinder 24 enters the space formed by the inner side of the second groove 5 and the outer side of the collection cylinder 24 through the first drain hole 29. When the seawater level reaches a certain height, the seawater in this space enters the water storage tank 26 through the second drain hole 28, increasing the space for the collection cylinder 24 to collect garbage.

[0042] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any modifications, alterations, substitutions, or variations made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
