Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention mainly relates to the technical field of ecological artificial reefs, specifically a dredged soil-solidified ecological artificial reef structure with silt reduction effect. Background Technology

[0002] Ecological reefs are underwater man-made hydraulic structures designed for the habitat and reproduction of aquatic organisms. They provide a place for fish and plankton to breed, grow, and develop, achieving the goals of protection, propagation, and increased catch. Ecological reefs also improve the aquatic ecological environment and enhance aquatic ecological functions, and are widely used in habitat restoration and fishery restoration. According to the reef-building materials, ecological reefs can be divided into cement reefs, vehicle and boat reefs, stone reefs, steel reefs, etc.

[0003] A waterway is a passageway within inland rivers, lakes, harbors, and other bodies of water that allows for safe navigation of ships. It consists of navigable waters, navigational aids, and water conditions. Waterways are classified by their formation (natural or artificial), by use (dedicated or public), and by management (national or local). Breakwaters are typically constructed along both sides of waterways, primarily to prevent flooding and ensure the safety of industrial and agricultural production and the public. With the action of ocean waves and rising water levels during the rainy season, breakwaters are constantly eroded. After each erosion, the waves themselves carry away most of the silt, but... Each time, some silt or sediment is left behind. Over time, the height of the silt covering the breakwater increases year by year, eventually leading to rising water levels, obstructed waterways, and disruption of normal navigation. This significantly weakens the required flood control and drainage standards. The flood control and water storage regulation performance of some waterway control gates has also greatly decreased, affecting the safety of flood control and flood season. Furthermore, waste in the water easily accumulates on both sides of the breakwater, polluting the environment and affecting the ecosystem. As the siltation problem becomes increasingly serious, reducing siltation in waterways is currently a very prominent issue. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention addresses the problem of overly simplistic solutions in existing technologies by providing a significantly different solution. Specifically, the present invention provides a dredged soil-solidified ecological artificial reef structure with silt reduction effect, which solves the technical problem mentioned in the background that the silt accumulation on both sides of the waterway is becoming increasingly serious, easily leading to rising water levels and obstructing the passage of ships in the waterway.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0006] An ecological artificial reef structure with dredged soil solidification effect includes an outer frame support mechanism. The outer frame support mechanism includes a base plate, a dredging plate, and an inclined plate. The base plate, dredging plate, and inclined plate form a trapezoidal structure. A first dredged soil solidification block is disposed within the base plate, and a second dredged soil solidification block is disposed within the inclined plate. The second dredged soil solidification block is stacked on the upper side of the first dredged soil solidification block. A dredging pushing component is disposed on the inclined surface of the inclined plate. The dredging pushing component includes a receiving plate that slides on the inclined surface of the inclined plate.

[0007] Preferably, the dredging plate includes an inclined surface and two limiting parts, wherein the inclined surface of the inclined surface plate, the inclined surface of the inclined plate, and the inclined surface of the base plate are on the same plane, and the two limiting parts are located on both sides of the inner wall of the base plate.

[0008] Preferably, a first groove is provided on one side of the back of the first dredged soil solidified block to facilitate the reproduction of plankton, and a plurality of through holes of different sizes are provided on the upper side of the first dredged soil solidified block, and the lower ends of some of the through holes are connected to the first groove.

[0009] Preferably, the inclined surface of the second dredged soil solidification block is provided with a placement groove, and the back side of the second dredged soil solidification block is provided with multiple hook-shaped grooves of different sizes and multiple second grooves to facilitate fish breeding, and the lower end of some hook-shaped grooves is connected to the upper end of the through hole.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting block is provided on the upper side of the receiving plate, and a first rack is provided on the connecting block. The first rack is meshed with a gear, and the gear is provided with a rotating shaft. Both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the placement groove. The gear is also meshed with a second rack. A first piston rod is provided at the lower end of the second rack, and a bent sealing cylinder is movably connected to the first piston rod. The bent sealing cylinder is fixed in the placement groove. A second piston rod is movably connected to the lower end of the bent sealing cylinder. The front end of the second piston rod is connected to the sludge removal plate. A traction rope is provided between the second piston rod and the first piston rod.

[0011] Preferably, a return spring is provided at the upper end of the first rack, and the upper end of the return spring is connected to the upper side of the inner wall of the inclined plate component.

[0012] Preferably, the leading edge of the receiving plate near the waterway side is an arc-shaped curved surface.

[0013] Preferably, a locking block is provided on both sides of the lower edge of the inclined panel, and each locking block is engaged with a locking groove, which is located on both sides of the upper edge of the base plate.

[0014] Preferably, the first dredged soil solidification block, the second dredged soil solidification block, the base plate and the inclined plate are all made of dredged soil.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0016] (1) The present invention is made of dredged soil through the first dredged soil solidification block, the second dredged soil solidification block, the base plate and the inclined plate. Since the dredged soil is taken from rivers and oceans, it is safe and environmentally friendly for use in rivers and oceans. It has high ecological suitability for aquatic organisms, conforms to the low-carbon concept of resource recycling, and maximizes the purpose of aquatic organism protection. In addition, the solidified dredged soil has a stable and safe structure, strong impact resistance, can effectively stabilize both sides of the waterway, and has a long service life. With dredged soil as the main material, the cost is low and it has a certain market value.

[0017] (2) The present invention uses a trapezoidal structure composed of a base plate, a dredging plate and an inclined plate to block sand on the inclined side near the waterway, effectively preventing silt from accumulating on both sides of the waterway. When the waves impact the reefs on both sides of the waterway, the water flow will impact the receiving plate along the inclined surface of the outer frame support mechanism. With the cooperation of the first rack, gear, shaft, second rack, first piston rod, bent sealing cylinder, second piston rod, return spring and traction rope, the dredging plate is pushed to one side of the waterway, cutting off the path of silt accumulation along the inclined surface of the trapezoidal structure. This ensures that the silt height is always lower than the upper edge of the base plate, thus facilitating the use of the force of the ship on the water flow in the waterway and the radial flow of water to carry away the silt at the bottom of both sides of the waterway. This effectively prevents the silt on both sides of the waterway from accumulating year by year, further achieving the effect of silt reduction, preventing water level rise and improving navigation safety.

[0018] (3) This invention increases the overall weight of the ecological reef structure by the cooperation between the first and second dredged soil solidification blocks, thereby ensuring the stability of the structure, making it less prone to overturning, and further improving its impact resistance. The first groove on the back of the first dredged soil solidification block and the second groove on the back of the second dredged soil solidification block can provide a breeding ground for plankton, a stable living environment, and effectively block the impact of water flow. The hook-shaped grooves of different sizes on the back of the second dredged soil solidification block provide a breeding and habitat for fish. The design of the hook-shaped grooves can prevent the water flow from washing away the fish eggs. In the juvenile stage, the fish mainly eat plankton and metabolize and move near the ecological reefs on both sides of the channel.

[0019] This creates an ecological balance on both sides of the waterway, effectively improves the aquatic ecological environment, increases fish catch, and greatly enhances the aquatic ecological function and self-regulation ability.

[0020] The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, a more comprehensive description of the present invention will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate several embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present invention more thorough and complete.

[0031] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly associated with those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the specification of this invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0033] Example 1, please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 1-8 As shown, an ecological fish reef structure with dredged soil solidification effect includes an outer frame support mechanism 1. The outer frame support mechanism 1 includes a base plate 11, a dredging plate 12, and an inclined plate 13. The base plate 11, the dredging plate 12, and the inclined plate 13 form a trapezoidal structure. A first dredged soil solidification block 2 is provided inside the base plate 11, and a second dredged soil solidification block 3 is provided inside the inclined plate 13. The second dredged soil solidification block 3 is stacked on the upper side of the first dredged soil solidification block 2. A dredging pushing component 4 is provided on the inclined surface of the inclined plate 13. The dredging pushing component 4 includes a receiving plate 41, which slides on the inclined surface of the inclined plate 13.

[0034] The interior and exterior of the aforementioned structure are both made of dredged soil. Since dredged soil is taken from rivers and oceans and used in rivers and oceans, it is safe and environmentally friendly. It has high ecological suitability for aquatic organisms, conforms to the low-carbon concept of resource recycling, and effectively utilizes the impact force of water flow in the channel to prevent silt from accumulating on both sides of the channel year by year. At the same time, it uses the force of the ship on the water flow in the channel and the radial flow force of the water to carry away the silt at the bottom of both sides of the channel, achieving the effect of silt reduction, preventing water level rise, improving navigation safety, and building ecological balance on both sides. It can effectively improve the aquatic ecological environment, increase fish catch, greatly enhance the aquatic ecological function and self-regulation ability.

[0035] The specific operation is as follows: First, the ecological artificial reefs are arranged linearly at equal intervals on both sides of the channel to block the impact of the water flow. When the waves impact the receiving plate 41 along the inclined surface of the inclined panel 13, the receiving plate 41 moves upward along the rectangular notch on the inclined panel 13. As the receiving plate 41 pulls the first rack 42 upward through the connecting block 411, the return spring 48 is compressed. At the same time, the gear 43, which meshes with the first rack 42, rotates clockwise, and the second rack 44 moves downward in the placement groove 33, thus pushing the first piston rod 45. The downward movement compresses the air inside the bent sealing cylinder 46, thereby pushing the second piston rod 47 to move. As the second piston rod 47 pushes the dredging plate 12 to move, it cuts off the silt accumulated on the slope to prevent further accumulation. After the impact of the waves, the return spring 48 returns to its original position, the first rack 42 and the receiving plate 41 move downward to their original positions, the gear 43 rotates counterclockwise, and the second rack 44 moves upward to its original position. Under the action of the traction rope 49, the first piston rod 45 pulls the second piston rod 47 to its original position, and the dredging plate 12 returns to its original position.

[0036] Example 2, please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the dredging plate 12 includes an inclined surface 121 and two limiting parts 122. The inclined surface 121, the inclined surface of the inclined plate 13, and the inclined surface of the base plate 11 are on the same plane, and the two limiting parts 122 are located on both sides of the inner wall of the base plate 11. The dredging plate 12 is made of lightweight material. A first groove 21 is provided on one side of the back of the first dredged soil solidified block 2 to facilitate the reproduction of plankton. A plurality of through holes 22 of different sizes are provided on the upper side of the first dredged soil solidified block 2, and the lower end of some of the through holes 22 communicates with the first groove 21. A placement groove 33 is provided on the inclined surface of the second dredged soil solidified block 3. The back side of the dredged soil solidification block 3 is provided with multiple hook-shaped grooves 32 of different sizes and multiple second grooves 31 to facilitate fish reproduction. The lower end of some hook-shaped grooves 32 is connected to the upper end of the through hole 22. Through the cooperation between the first dredged soil solidification block 2 and the second dredged soil solidification block 3, a place for fish and plankton to reproduce and live is provided, which helps to promote the construction of ecological balance on both sides of the waterway. The first dredged soil solidification block 2, the second dredged soil solidification block 3, the base plate 11 and the inclined plate 13 are all made of dredged soil. The dredged soil is taken from rivers and oceans and used in rivers and oceans. It is safe and environmentally friendly and conforms to the low-carbon concept of resource recycling.

[0037] Example 3, please refer to the appendix for details. Figure 4 , 5As shown in Figure 6, a connecting block 411 is provided on the upper side of the receiving plate 41. A first rack 42 is provided on the connecting block 411. The first rack 42 is meshed with a gear 43, and a rotating shaft 431 is provided on the gear 43. Both ends of the rotating shaft 431 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the placement groove 33. The gear 43 is also meshed with a second rack 44. A first piston rod 45 is provided at the lower end of the second rack 44, and a bent sealing cylinder 46 is movably connected to the first piston rod 45. The bent sealing cylinder 46 is fixed in the placement groove 33. A second piston rod 47 is movably connected to the lower end of the bent sealing cylinder 46. The front end of the second piston rod 47 is connected to the sludge removal plate 12. A traction mechanism is provided between the second piston rod 47 and the first piston rod 45. Rope 49, the upper end of the first rack 42 is provided with a return spring 48, the upper end of the return spring 48 is connected to the upper side of the inner wall of the inclined plate 13, and the dredging push component 4 realizes the utilization of the impact force of the sea waves to achieve a better dredging effect. The front edge of the receiving plate 41 near the channel is an arc-shaped surface. The arc-shaped surface of the receiving plate 41 better bears the force of the water flow and reduces the intensity of water splash. Both sides of the lower edge of the inclined plate 13 are provided with a locking block 131, and each locking block 131 is engaged with a locking groove 111. The locking groove 111 is located on both sides of the upper edge of the base plate 11. Through the mutual cooperation between the locking block 131 and the locking groove 111, the artificial reef can be quickly assembled and the operation is convenient.

[0038] The present invention has been described by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvement made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention to other occasions without modification, shall be within the protection scope of the present invention.
