Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of silt removal equipment technology, specifically a river silt slurry cleaning machine. Background Technology
[0002] In river management, to ensure the smooth flow of waterways, relevant departments will dredge and clean the silt (including mud) deposited at the bottom of the river when necessary. Existing river dredging equipment generally includes a hull and an excavation mechanism. In practice, workers manually operate the hull to the work area, and then the excavation mechanism dredges the silt from the riverbed and loads it into the dredging vessel.

[0028] This invention provides a river silt cleaning machine, such as... Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a slide rail 1, a vertical rod 2, an overlapping rod 3, a cleaning module 5, and a collection cylinder 6. The vertical rod 2 is fixedly installed at both ends of the slide rail 1. The overlapping rod 3 is vertically inserted into the vertical rod 2 and slides with the vertical rod 2. The upper end of the overlapping rod 3 overlaps the edge of the river channel. The cleaning module 5 slides on the slide rail 1. The top of the cleaning module 5 is equipped with a collection cylinder 6. The cleaning module 5 consists of a base 7, a worktable 71, a crescent plate 8, and a propeller 10.
[0029] The base 7 slides with the slide rail 1. The front end of the base 7 is welded to the worktable 71. The top left and right sides of the worktable 71 are symmetrically welded with crescent plates 8. The left and right sides of the worktable 71 are both set as curved surfaces 711, and the curved surfaces 711 are concave inward.
[0030] The curved surface 711 is aligned with the surface of the crescent plate 8. The crescent plate 8 and the curved surface 711 on the side of the base 7 cooperate to form a semi-circular shovel. The collection cylinder 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 7. The crescent plate 8 has a connecting hole 81. The front side of the collection cylinder 6 is connected to a sludge pipe 61, which is aligned with the crescent plate 8.
[0031] It also includes two propellers 10, which are symmetrically arranged on the inner side of the semi-circular shovel on both sides of the workbench 71. The blades of the propellers 10 are long and plate-shaped. When the propellers 10 rotate, the plate-shaped blades can stir up the silt. The propellers 10 assist the semi-circular shovel in shoveling up the silt from the riverbed.
[0032] During operation, the connecting rods 3 on both sides of the slide rail 1 are placed on the riverbank, and due to the weight of the equipment, the slide rail 1 sinks to the bottom of the riverbed. Then, the propeller 10 drives the base 7 to move back and forth left and right. When the base 7 moves back and forth, it scoops up the silt from the riverbed and sucks the silt into the collection cylinder 6 through the silt pipe 61.
[0033] A support rod 72, which is pivotally connected to the shaft end of the propeller 10, is welded to the side of the worktable 71. A motor is fixedly installed on the support rod 72. The motor drive shaft is welded to the front end of the propeller 10 shaft. A gear 11 is welded to the rear end of the propeller 10 shaft. A toothed belt 12 runs through the worktable 71. The gears 11 of the two propellers 10 are connected together through the toothed belt 12, and the two propellers 10 rotate synchronously.
[0034] Working principle: The propeller 10 rotates clockwise, and the propeller 10 on the right side of the base 7 rotates to stir up the silt, scooping up the silt for easy absorption by the silt pipe 61. The propeller 10 on the left side of the base 7 rotates to stir up the water flow, thereby pushing the base 7 to move to the right.
[0035] Similarly, as the propeller 10 rotates counterclockwise, the propeller 10 on the left side of the base 7 scoops up the silt, while the propeller 10 on the right side of the base 7 pushes the base 7 to move to the left.
[0036] The collection cylinder 6 has two chambers, 62 and 63. A conveying pump is fixedly installed on the front side of the collection cylinder 6. One end of the conveying pump is connected to the sludge pipe 61. The other end of the conveying pump is connected to the first chamber 62. A vertical central shaft 14 is welded to the top of the inner wall of the first chamber 62. A counterweight 15 is slidably fitted onto the central shaft 14.
[0037] A motor 16 is fixedly installed inside the sludge pipe 61 and above the counterweight 15. A steel wire 17 is fixedly bound to the drive shaft of the motor 16. The end of the steel wire 17 away from the motor 16 is fixedly bound to the counterweight 15. A semi-permeable membrane 13 is fixedly installed between chamber one 62 and chamber two 63. The semi-permeable membrane 13 only allows water molecules to pass through. The semi-permeable membrane 13 is a conventional existing technology used to separate sludge from water, and therefore will not be described in detail.
[0038] A wire mesh is welded between chamber 1 (62) and chamber 2 (63), and a semi-permeable membrane is fixedly bonded to the surface of the wire mesh.
[0039] Originally, the counterweight 17 was suspended above the sludge pipe 61. During operation, the sludge is pumped into chamber one 62, then the motor 16 rotates to release the steel wire 17, causing the counterweight 17 to fall and squeeze the sludge, forcing out the water. After the water is squeezed out, the sludge storage capacity increases, improving the collection capacity of the collection cylinder 6. The squeezed-out water enters chamber two 62 through the semi-permeable membrane 13.
[0040] Furthermore, when the sludge pipe 61 is working, it will suck in some river water, which will also enter the second chamber 62 through the semi-permeable membrane 13.
[0041] The connection end of the sludge pipe 61 to the collection cylinder 6 is lower than the counterweight block 15. A water pump 18 is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the second chamber 63. A suction pipe 181 is welded to the suction end of the water pump 18. A drain outlet 64 is opened on the rear side of the collection cylinder 6. The drain end of the water pump 18 is connected to the drain outlet 64.
[0042] During operation, the water in chamber 2 63 is discharged through the collection tube 6, which achieves the propulsion effect and drives the slide rail 1 to move forward slowly.
[0043] An infrared sensor 19 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water pump 18, and an infrared transmitter 20 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of chamber 62, with the infrared sensor 19 and the infrared transmitter 20 aligned. A control module for operating various electronic components and a battery are also fixedly installed outside the collection cylinder 6. The infrared sensor 19 and the infrared transmitter 20 work together to form a warning line. When the silt accumulates beyond the warning line, the infrared sensor 19 can no longer detect infrared rays. At this time, the main control module notifies the staff, who then retrieve the collection cylinder 6 and empty the silt inside.
[0044] A connecting block 21 is welded to the side of the vertical rod 2, and a connecting block 31 is welded to the side of the overlapping rod 3. A rubber band 22 is fixedly tied between the connecting block 21 and the connecting block 31. A horizontal bar 4 is slidably fitted onto the upper end of the overlapping rod 3, and the horizontal bar 4 is placed on the riverbank. The horizontal bar 4 and the overlapping rod 3 work together to push the slide rail 1 forward.
[0045] The workbench 71 has a welding shovel head 9 at its front end. This facilitates the movement of the equipment.
[0046] In summary, this river silt removal machine consists of a frame composed of a slide rail 1, vertical rods 2, and connecting rods 3, erected on the riverbed. The slide rail 1 sinks to the riverbed due to its weight, causing the base 71 to contact the silt. A crescent-shaped plate 8 forms a semi-circular shovel on the base 71. Through the cooperation of the semi-circular shovel, propeller 10, and collection cylinder 6, the silt is scooped up and collected. The collection cylinder 6 contains a counterweight 15, a semi-permeable membrane 13, and a water pump 18, which uses the water squeezed out of the silt for the device's propulsion. This replaces traditional manual operation, reducing dredging costs and safety risks.
