Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of marine algae cleaning equipment, and in particular to an automatic salvaging equipment and a salvaging method for salvaging enteromorpha. Background Art

[0002] The existing salvage equipment or nets mainly include the following: (1) Manual hand-scooped nets: This method has obvious shortcomings, such as slow salvage speed, low efficiency, labor-intensive and labor-intensive, and is only suitable for local cleaning of Enteromorpha in a small area with limited mechanical operation space. (2) Attack nets: This tool is a ship-side iron frame salvage net, which improves the efficiency of floating Enteromorpha salvage to a certain extent, but it still needs to be hoisted by a crane and then unpacked and released onto the ship deck, so it requires a lot of manpower costs. Therefore, overall, the salvage efficiency is still low and the degree of mechanization is low. (3) Large Enteromorpha disposal platform (Entomorpha offshore efficient salvage collector): This equipment is only suitable for open waters in the middle and late stages of Enteromorpha green tide, and for salvaging large areas of Enteromorpha green tide patches or strips. It is not suitable for the situation where the floating Enteromorpha biomass is low in the early stage. This large disposal platform is very efficient, but at the same time faces the problem of huge costs, exceeding 200,000 yuan / day. (4) Small automated salvage vessels: Mechanical automated salvage has been achieved to a certain extent, but these vessels are relatively small, have low wind and wave resistance, and low environmental adaptability. They need to rely on a mother ship for salvage operations, and are difficult to promote and apply. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides an automatic salvaging equipment for salvaging Enteromorpha, comprising a salvaging conveyor belt for scooping up Enteromorpha floating on the sea surface and transporting it upward; a ship-borne transport system for receiving Enteromorpha transported by the salvaging conveyor belt and transporting the received Enteromorpha to a ship hull; The shipborne conveying system is provided with a first movable platform which is allowed to drive the salvage conveying belt to move in the conveying direction of the shipborne conveying system; the salvage conveying belt is hinged to the first movable platform.

[0004] Based on the above scheme, the first mobile platform includes a platform body, a caster part arranged at the lower part of the platform body for driving the first mobile platform to move along the conveying direction of the ship-borne conveying system, and an articulated part arranged at the upper part of the platform body for articulating with the end of the salvage conveyor belt.

[0005] On the basis of the above scheme, it also includes a retractable winch arranged on the hull for hoisting the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt.

[0006] On the basis of the above solution, a receiving tray for receiving the enteromorpha transported by the ship-borne transport system is arranged on the hull.

[0007] On the basis of the above scheme, a second mobile platform for fixing the shipborne conveying system is also provided on the hull; and a moving track for the second mobile platform to move in a direction perpendicular to the first mobile platform is provided on the hull.

[0008] On the basis of the above solution, a salvage fixing frame for fixing the salvage conveyor belt during the salvage process of Enteromorpha is also provided on the hull.

[0009] On the basis of the above solution, the ship-borne conveying system is provided with a pressing roller for dehydrating the Enteromorpha being transported.

[0010] Based on the above solution, the bottom of the first mobile platform forms an inclination angle that matches the inclined shipborne transportation system.

[0011] The present application also provides a method for salvaging Enteromorpha, comprising the following steps: (1) In the area to be salvaged, the first mobile platform is pushed in a direction away from the hull, so that the first mobile platform drives the salvage conveyor belt to extend out of the hull; (2) After being in place, the caster part of the first mobile platform is fixed to the ship-borne conveying system; (3) Use the retractable winch to slowly lower the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt, and the salvage conveyor belt rotates around the hinge with the first mobile platform, and finally the salvage end is in place; (4) turning on the salvage conveyor belt and the ship-borne conveying system, so that the salvage conveyor belt drives the Enteromorpha on the sea surface to be transported upward, and finally falls from the output end to the receiving end of the ship-borne conveying system; (5) The onboard conveying system transfers the received Enteromorpha into the hull and drops it into the receiving tray, which is then sorted and packaged.

[0012] The automatic salvaging equipment for salvaging Enteromorpha of the present invention is provided with a ship-borne conveying system and a first mobile platform, so that the salvaging conveyor belt is moved outward from the hull during salvaging, and is retracted into the hull when not salvaging, so that it is convenient for users to operate the salvaging equipment. The pressure roller provided on the ship-borne conveying system can remove the moisture carried in the salvaged Enteromorpha before entering the hull. At the same time, the inclined setting of the ship-borne conveying system is convenient for directly discharging the moisture into the sea. In addition, the bottom of the first mobile platform forms an inclined angle that matches the inclined ship-borne conveying system, and the top of the first mobile platform is kept in a horizontal state as a whole, so that it can match the salvaging conveyor belt, ensuring the normal operation of the salvaging conveyor belt. The movable track provided on the hull can enable the second mobile platform to drive the ship-borne conveying system and the salvaging conveyor belt to move as a whole, so as to adjust the position of the salvaging conveyor belt according to the position of the Enteromorpha during the salvaging process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be pointed out that the embodiments described below are intended to facilitate the understanding of the present invention and do not have any limiting effect on the present invention.

[0015] Example 1 like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the present application provides an automatic salvaging equipment for salvaging Enteromorpha, including a salvaging conveyor belt 1 for scooping up Enteromorpha floating on the sea surface and transporting it upward; a ship-borne transport system 3 for receiving Enteromorpha transported by the salvaging conveyor belt 1 and transporting the received Enteromorpha to a ship 2; The shipborne conveying system 3 is provided with a first movable platform 7 which allows the salvage conveyor belt 1 to move in the conveying direction of the shipborne conveying system 3 ; the salvage conveyor belt 1 is hinged to the first movable platform 7 .

[0016] When not in use, the first mobile platform 7 drives the salvage conveyor belt 1 to be recovered onto the hull 2; When in use, the first mobile platform 7 drives the salvage conveyor belt 1 to extend out of the hull 2 ​​and the salvage conveyor belt 1 is away from one end of the first mobile platform 7 and penetrates below the sea surface.

[0017] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the first mobile platform 7 includes a platform body 7-1, a caster part 7-2 arranged at the lower part of the platform body 7-1 for driving the first mobile platform 7 to move along the conveying direction of the ship-borne conveying system 3, and an articulated part 7-3 arranged at the upper part of the platform body 7-1 for articulating with the end of the salvage conveyor belt 1.

[0018] When salvaging the Enteromorpha, the first mobile platform 7 is manually pushed away from the hull 2, so that the first mobile platform 7 drives the salvage conveyor belt 1 to extend out of the hull 2. After it is in place, the caster part 7-2 of the first mobile platform 7 is fixed to the ship-borne conveying system 3; then the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt 1 is lowered, and the salvage conveyor belt 1 rotates around the hinge part 7-3 with the first mobile platform 7, and finally the salvage end is in place. The salvage conveyor belt 1 and the ship-borne conveying system 3 are turned on, so that the salvage conveyor belt 1 drives the Enteromorpha on the sea surface to be transmitted upward, and finally falls from the output end into the receiving end of the ship-borne conveying system 3. The ship-borne conveying system 3 in transmission transmits the received Enteromorpha into the hull 2 ​​and is manually sorted and packaged.

[0019] After the salvage is completed, close the salvage conveyor belt 1 and the ship-borne conveying system 3, lift the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt 1, then pull the first mobile platform 7 so that the first mobile platform 7 drives the salvage conveyor belt 1 back to the hull 2. After it is in place, fix the caster part 7-2 of the first mobile platform 7 to the ship-borne conveying system 3.

[0020] The Enteromorpha salvaged by the salvage conveyor belt 1 contains a large amount of water, and needs to be dehydrated during the later sorting and packaging. If the dehydration is carried out in the hull 2, a large amount of seawater will be present in the hull 2. In order to solve this technical problem, Figure 4 As shown, the ship-borne conveying system 3 is provided with a pressing roller 10 for dehydrating the Enteromorpha being transported.

[0021] Further, in order to prevent the escaped water from entering the hull 2, as Figure 5 As shown, the horizontal height of the receiving end of the ship-borne conveying system 3 is lower than the horizontal height of the output end. In order to achieve this technical effect, the bottom of the first mobile platform 7 forms an inclination angle that matches the inclined ship-borne conveying system 3. This method can ensure that the top of the first mobile platform 7 is overall level, so that it can be compatible with the salvage conveyor belt 1. The top of the second mobile platform 6 forms an inclination angle that matches the inclined ship-borne conveying system 3.

[0022] Since the weight of the salvage conveyor belt 1 is relatively large, manual retraction and deployment will consume a lot of manpower. In order to solve this technical problem, based on the above-mentioned salvage equipment, such as Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a retracting winch 4 arranged on the hull 2 ​​for hoisting the salvaging end of the salvaging conveyor belt 1.

[0023] The use of the retractable winch 4 can greatly reduce the labor cost during salvage. When salvaging Enteromorpha, after the first mobile platform 7 drives the salvage conveyor belt 1 to extend out of the hull 2 ​​and into position, the retractable winch 4 is used to slowly lower the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt 1, and the salvage conveyor belt 1 rotates around the hinge with the first mobile platform 7, and finally puts the salvage end into position. After the salvage is completed, the retractable winch 4 is used to raise the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt 1, and finally the salvage conveyor belt 1 is retracted.

[0024] The enteromorpha salvaged from the salvaging conveyor belt 1 is transported to the hull 2 ​​using the ship-borne conveying system 3 for sorting and packaging. In order to facilitate the reception of the enteromorpha transported to the hull 2 ​​by the ship-borne conveying system 3, a receiving tray 5 for receiving the enteromorpha transported by the ship-borne conveying system 3 is provided on the hull 2.

[0025] The hull 2 ​​is also provided with a second mobile platform 6 for fixing the ship-borne conveying system 3 ; the hull 2 ​​is provided with a moving track 8 for the second mobile platform 6 to move in a direction perpendicular to the first mobile platform 7 .

[0026] The setting of the movable track 8 can drive the entire equipment to move on the hull 2 ​​through the second movable platform 6, so that the floating Enteromorpha salvaging equipment can be adjusted to the best salvaging position when the ship is stopped.

[0027] The hull 2 ​​is also provided with a salvaging fixing frame 9 for fixing the salvaging conveyor belt 1 during the process of salvaging the enteromorpha.

[0028] The sacrificial anode can be installed on the bottom metal bracket of the salvage conveyor belt 1 immersed in seawater. The main purpose of the sacrificial anode is to prevent the salvage conveyor belt immersed in seawater from being corroded by seawater. The principle is that the sacrificial anode will make the seawater act on itself first instead of the salvage conveyor belt 1. When the sacrificial anode reaches a certain degree of use, it can be replaced.

[0029] Example 2 Based on the salvaging equipment in Example 1, the present application provides a method for salvaging Enteromorpha, which specifically includes the following steps: (1) In the area to be salvaged, the first mobile platform 7 is pushed in a direction away from the hull 2, so that the first mobile platform 7 drives the salvage conveyor belt 1 to extend out of the hull 2; (2) After being in place, the caster part 7-2 of the first mobile platform 7 is fixed to the ship-borne conveying system 3; (3) Use the retractable winch 4 to slowly lower the salvage end of the salvage conveyor belt 1, and the salvage conveyor belt 1 rotates around the hinge with the first mobile platform 7, and finally the salvage end is in place; (4) starting the salvage conveyor belt 1 and the ship-borne conveying system 3, so that the salvage conveyor belt 1 drives the Enteromorpha on the sea surface to be transported upward, and finally falls from the output end to the receiving end of the ship-borne conveying system 3; (5) The onboard conveying system 3 during transport transports the received Enteromorpha into the hull 2 ​​and drops it into the receiving tray 5, which is then sorted and packaged.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not used to limit the present invention. Any technical personnel in this field can make some changes or modify the technical contents disclosed above into equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any brief modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
