AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

After prolonged use, existing ballast water pipelines accumulate viscous impurities such as algae on their inner walls, making cleaning difficult, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, and requiring disassembly of the pipeline for cleaning.

Method used

A cleaning device is installed inside the ballast water pipeline, including a rotating ring, a cleaning rod, and a motor-driven gear system. The motor drives the gear to rotate, and the rotating ring rotates inside the annular cavity, which drives the cleaning rod and cleaning scraper to clean the inner wall of the pipeline. A sealing structure and linkage mechanism are also provided to improve the sealing performance and cleaning effect.

Benefits of technology

It enables efficient cleaning without disassembling pipes, reducing cleaning difficulty and labor intensity, maintaining the cleanliness of the pipe inner wall, and improving the smoothness of water flow.
