Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental protection technology, specifically to a floating environmental monitoring island capable of collecting waste. Background Technology

[0002] As people become increasingly aware of water pollution, the management of aquatic environments has become an important issue. Currently, many parks and scenic spots feature lakes of varying sizes, typically equipped with one or more floating islands containing environmental monitoring functions to monitor water quality. However, debris inevitably falls into these lakes due to human activity or wind, not only affecting their aesthetics but also easily causing water pollution.

[0003] However, debris often falls into lakes due to human activity or wind, affecting not only their appearance but also causing water pollution. Currently, the common method for dealing with surface garbage is manual dredging. In practice, this requires specialized large boats, which are difficult to maneuver in smaller bodies of water or narrow sections. Furthermore, there are certain safety hazards for garbage collectors working on the water. In some lakes with complex water conditions, it is difficult to ensure that garbage collectors can clean up surface garbage completely and safely.

[0004] To address this, we propose a floating environmental monitoring island capable of collecting waste. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Preferably, the cleaning inclined block includes an annular inclined block, a through groove, and an inclined surface. The bottom of the annular inclined block is fixedly installed to the top of the collection bucket. The through groove is opened through both sides of the annular inclined block. The width of the through groove is the same as the width of the collection claw. The inclined surface is set on the inner side of the annular inclined block, and the inclination angle of the inclined surface is sixty degrees.

[0009] Preferably, the collecting claw includes a rotating shaft, a sleeve, and a bent rod. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the top of the bracket. One end of the rotating shaft is fixedly installed with the fourth synchronous device. The sleeve is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft. One end of the bent rod is integrally connected to the outer circumferential surface of the sleeve. The other end of the bent rod is bent in the direction of rotation of the collecting claw.

[0010] Preferably, the bracket is a regular hexagon, and each side of the bracket is provided with a collecting claw, with adjacent collecting claws offset by 60 degrees.

[0015] Beneficial effects

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the present invention provides an environmental monitoring floating island capable of collecting waste, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This environmental monitoring floating island that can collect garbage generates electricity by installing solar panels on the top plate. The solar panels also power the detector and drive motor installed at the bottom of the connecting rod. The detector monitors the water quality so that the water quality and pollution status of the lake can be understood in real time.

[0018] 2. This environmental monitoring floating island that can collect garbage uses a drive motor to drive the first synchronous wheel to rotate, which in turn causes the second synchronous wheel connected to the first synchronous wheel to rotate, and drives the transmission rod to rotate. The universal joint ensures that all transmission rods can rotate, thereby driving the collection claw to collect and clean up the garbage floating on the water surface.

[0019] 3. This environmental monitoring floating island that can collect garbage drives the third synchronous wheel to rotate through the rotation of the transmission rod, which in turn drives the fourth synchronous wheel connected to the third synchronous wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the collecting claw to rotate. When the collecting claw picks up the garbage, it is transported to the inside of the support and falls into the collection bin as it rotates. When the garbage adheres to the curved rod, it enters the through groove as it rotates, and soft garbage is left on the inclined surface of the annular inclined block and finally slides into the collection bin.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 9 An environmental monitoring floating island capable of collecting waste includes a top plate 1. A solar panel 2, parallel to the top of the top plate 1, is fixedly installed on the top of the top plate 1. A connecting rod 3 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the top plate 1. A detector 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the connecting rod 3. A fixing ring 5, coaxially arranged with the top plate 1, is integrally connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 3. A waste collection component 6 is fixedly installed inside the fixing ring 5. By installing the solar panel 2 on the top plate 1, the solar panel 2 generates electricity, which simultaneously powers the detector 4 and drive motor 62 installed at the bottom of the connecting rod 3. The detector 4 detects water quality, enabling real-time monitoring of the lake's water quality and pollution status.

[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, the garbage collection assembly 6 includes a collection bin 613 located inside the fixing ring 5, and a bracket 61 fixedly installed on the top of the collection bin 613. The collection bin 613 is fixedly installed on the fixing ring 5. A drive motor 62 is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket 61. A first synchronous pulley 63 is fixedly installed at the output end of the drive motor 62. A transmission rod 66 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the bracket 61. The ends of the two transmission rods 66 are movably connected through a universal joint 67. A second synchronous pulley 65 is fixedly installed at one end of one of the transmission rods 66. The first synchronous pulley 63 is connected to the second synchronous pulley 65 through a first synchronous belt 64. The drive motor 62 drives the first synchronous pulley 63 to rotate, thereby causing the synchronous pulley 65, which is connected to the first synchronous pulley 63, to rotate and drive the transmission rod 66 to rotate. The universal joint 67 can ensure that all the transmission rods 66 can rotate, thereby driving the collection claw 611 to collect and clean the garbage floating on the water surface.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, a third synchronous pulley 68 is fixedly installed on the transmission rod 66 on one side of the universal joint 67. A collecting claw 611 is rotatably connected to the top of the bracket 61. A fourth synchronous pulley 610 is fixedly installed at one end of the collecting claw 611. The fourth synchronous pulley 610 is connected to the third synchronous pulley 68 via a second synchronous belt 69. A cleaning ramp 612 located above the collecting bin 613 is fixedly installed inside the bracket 61. The rotation of the transmission rod 66 drives the third synchronous pulley 68 to rotate, which in turn causes the fourth synchronous pulley 610, which is connected to the third synchronous pulley 68, to rotate, thereby driving the collecting claw 611 to rotate. When the collecting claw 611 picks up the garbage, it transports the garbage into the interior of the bracket 61 as it rotates and falls into the collecting bin 613. When the garbage adheres to the curved rod 6113, it enters the through groove 6122 as it rotates. Soft garbage is left on the inclined surface 6123 of the annular ramp 6121 and finally slides into the collecting bin 613.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning inclined block 612 includes an annular inclined block 6121, a through groove 6122, and an inclined surface 6123. The bottom of the annular inclined block 6121 is fixedly installed with the top of the collection bucket 613. The through groove 6122 is opened through both sides of the annular inclined block 6121. The width of the through groove 6122 is the same as the width of the collection claw 611. The inclined surface 6123 is provided on the inner side of the annular inclined block 6121, and the inclination angle of the inclined surface 6123 is sixty degrees.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, the collecting claw 611 includes a rotating shaft 6111, a sleeve 6112, and a bent rod 6113.

The sleeve 6112 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 6111. One end of the bent rod 6113 is integrally connected to the outer peripheral surface of the sleeve 6112. The other end of the bent rod 6113 is bent in the direction of rotation of the collecting claw 611.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, the bracket 61 is a regular hexagon, and each side of the bracket 61 is provided with a collecting claw 611, with adjacent collecting claws 611 being offset by sixty degrees.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first transmission rod 66 and the last transmission rod 66 are not connected end to end, and the universal joint 67 connecting the transmission rods 66 is located at the apex of the hexagonal bracket 61.

[0038] As one embodiment of the present invention, the drive motor 62 is provided with a waterproof cover, and the outer peripheral surface of the collection bucket 613 is provided with a plurality of through holes 614, which penetrate into the interior of the collection bucket 613.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the connecting rod 3 is located between two adjacent collecting claws 611, and a total of six connecting rods 3 are provided corresponding to the top frame of the bracket 61.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, the diameter of the bent rod 6113 is the same as the width of the through groove 6122, the bottom of the through groove 6122 is arc-shaped, and the center of the arc at the bottom of the through groove 6122 coincides with the center of the sleeve 6112.

[0041] It should be noted that during use, the solar panel 2 generates electricity, which simultaneously powers the detector 4 and drive motor 62 installed at the bottom of the connecting rod 3. The detector 4 monitors the water quality to provide real-time information on the lake's water quality and pollution levels. The drive motor 62 drives the first synchronous wheel 63 to rotate, which in turn drives the fourth synchronous wheel 610, which in turn drives the transmission rod 66 to rotate. The universal joint 67 ensures that all transmission rods 66 can rotate. The rotation of the transmission rod 66 drives the third synchronous wheel 68 to rotate, which in turn drives the fourth synchronous wheel 610, which in turn drives the collecting claw 611 to rotate. When the collecting claw 611 picks up the garbage, it is transported to the inside of the bracket 61 as it rotates and falls into the collection bin 613. When the garbage adheres to the curved rod 6113, it rotates and enters the through groove 6122. Soft garbage is left on the inclined surface 6123 of the annular inclined block 6121 and finally slides into the collection bin 613.
