Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of water surface garbage cleaning, in particular to a water surface garbage cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous increase in human activities, the pollution problem of aquatic environment is becoming increasingly serious, especially the proliferation of garbage on the water surface, which seriously threatens the ecological balance, water resource quality and the quality of life of coastal residents. At the same time, in the autumn and winter seasons, trees enter a dormant period, and a large amount of dead branches and leaves are washed into water bodies (such as reservoirs and park artificial lakes) by rainwater, and together with discarded plastic bottles, they will constitute floating garbage on the water surface. Traditional methods of cleaning water surface garbage mostly rely on manual and simple mechanical operations, which are not only inefficient and costly, but also difficult to cope with large-scale and continuous pollution problems.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN112854167A discloses a surface garbage cleaning device, which uses a reciprocating sliding material transfer plate to perform step-by-step transmission, thereby improving the transmission capacity and avoiding the accumulation of garbage at the end of the rotating shaft. The eccentric rod rotates to drive the push-pull rod to push and pull the extrusion plate to slide, so that the extrusion plate forms a circulating groove trajectory to slide and squeeze the garbage inside the aggregate box, thereby increasing the compaction degree of the garbage and thereby increasing the capacity of the aggregate box.

[0004] In the above scheme, the rotating cleaning rake sends the surface garbage to the feeding plate, and the transfer plate then sends the garbage into the interior of the collection box. Finally, the extrusion plate compacts the garbage inside the collection box, thereby increasing the garbage collection and cleaning capacity. However, the ornamental trees near the park's artificial lake need to be pruned regularly, and their fallen branches and leaves become one of the main sources of floating garbage. Since these naturally grown branches contain high water content and have strong cell wall toughness, they are easy to bend rather than break under external force, making them difficult to compress, and their irregular shape occupies a large amount of storage space, so that only a small amount of floating garbage can be collected and cleaned in a single salvage. If salvage is carried out again, personnel need to pile the collected garbage on the shore. This process is time-consuming and labor-intensive. There is floating garbage formed by plants, and the amount of single salvage during cleaning is small, resulting in low efficiency in cleaning floating garbage. For this reason, we propose a surface garbage cleaning device to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. The present application drives the support forward by the propeller, so that the water flow continuously passes through the collection box, and the water floating garbage composed of branches and leaves enters between the two fixed plates along the water flow, wherein the large volume of garbage is intercepted by the load cage, and the small volume of garbage passes through the load cage and is intercepted by the collection box, and then the large volume of garbage is transported to the water surface by the load cage, the saw wheel cuts the large volume of garbage in the load cage, and finally the load cage returns to the water, and the garbage in the load cage enters the inside of the collection box along with the water flow, thereby avoiding the case that the large volume of garbage occupies a large space in the inside of the collection box, and improving the single fishing amount of water floating garbage.

[0019] 2.

[0029] See also Figure 1-4In the present invention, a water surface garbage cleaning device includes a bracket 2, a photovoltaic panel 202 is provided on the top of the bracket 2, a propeller 201 is provided at the lower end of the bracket 2, a collection box 7 is provided inside the bracket 2, a fixing plate 1 is provided on both sides of the bracket 2, a buoyancy block 203 is provided at the lower end of the fixing plate 1, and a first limiting groove 101 and a second limiting groove 102 are provided on the side of the fixing plate 1.

[0030] A synchronous belt 3, a first synchronous wheel 301 and a second synchronous wheel 302 are arranged inside the second limiting groove 102. The two first synchronous wheels 301 are connected by a transmission shaft 303. The second synchronous wheel 302 is connected to the axis of the fixed plate 1. A baffle 304 is arranged above the synchronous belt 3 and is installed on the fixed plate 1.

[0031] A loading cage 4 is provided between the two fixed plates 1 , and a saw wheel 5 is provided above the synchronous belt 3 .

[0032] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-4 In an embodiment of the present invention, a water surface garbage cleaning device is provided, wherein two second motors 8 are respectively installed on the sides of the two fixed plates 1, and the second motors 8 are connected to the transmission shaft 303 through the second gear set 801. The second gear set 801 includes a second driving gear and a second driven gear that are meshed with each other. The second driving gear is connected to the shaft of the second motor 8, and the second driven gear is connected to the transmission shaft 303. The two second motors 8 simultaneously drive the transmission shaft 303 to rotate, thereby driving the two sets of synchronous belts 3 to rotate at the same time, thereby ensuring the power required to transport the loading cage 4.

[0033] The loading cage 4 is located between the two fixed plates 1. The loading cage 4 is composed of multiple base plates 402 and rake teeth 401. One end of the rake teeth 401 is an arc-shaped structure. One end of the loading cage 4 is connected to the synchronous belt 3 through the first rotating shaft 403. The other end of the loading cage 4 is provided with a second rotating shaft 404. Both ends of the second rotating shaft 404 are provided with rollers 405. The two rollers 405 are respectively located inside the two first limiting grooves 101.

[0034] One end of the loading cage 4 moves following the synchronous belt 3 , and the other end of the loading cage 4 slides inside the first limiting groove 101 through the second rotating shaft 404 . The first limiting groove 101 limits the moving trajectory of the loading cage 4 .

[0035] The saw wheel 5 is located between two adjacent rake teeth 401, and multiple saw wheels 5 are installed on the drive shaft. Slide blocks 503 are provided at both ends of the drive shaft. The upper end of the slide block 503 is installed on the slide rail above the bracket 2. The first motor 501 is installed on the side of the slide block 503. The first motor 501 is connected to the drive shaft through the first gear set 502. The first gear set 502 includes a first driving gear and a first driven gear that are meshed with each other. The first driving gear is connected to the first motor 501 shaft, and the first driven gear is connected to the drive shaft. The electric telescopic rod 6 is installed on the side of the fixed plate 1, and the piston rod inside the electric telescopic rod 6 is connected to the slide block 503.

[0036] When the synchronous belt 3 controls the loading cage 4 to move to contact the water surface, the loading cage 4 is in a vertical state. As the propeller 201 drives the bracket 2 to move forward, the water flow continuously passes through the loading cage 4 and the collection box 7 in sequence. The garbage floating on the water surface follows the water flow and enters between the two fixed plates 1. The large-volume garbage is intercepted by the loading cage 4, and the small-volume garbage passes through the loading cage 4 and is intercepted by the collection box 7.

[0037] Afterwards, the synchronous belt 3 controls the loading cage 4 to move above the water surface, and the loading cage 4 is in a tilted state with one end downward. When the loading cage 4 is loaded with a large volume of garbage and moves to a preset position above the water surface, and the in-position sensor is triggered, the synchronous belt 3 stops moving. At this time, the first motor 501 drives multiple saw wheels 5 to rotate simultaneously, and the electric telescopic rod 6 controls the rotating saw wheels 5 to pass through the gaps between the rake teeth 401 and move to the inside of the loading cage 4 by pushing the slider 503 to move along the slide rail, thereby cutting the large volume of garbage inside the loading cage 4, and the small volume of garbage cut out falls from the gaps between the rake teeth 401 to the water surface and enters the inside of the collection box 7 with the water flow;

[0038] During cutting, the saw wheel 5 pushes the bulky garbage inside the loading cage 4 to move along the bottom plate 402, and the bulky garbage gradually moves to contact the rake teeth 401, so that the rake teeth 401 and the bottom plate 402 fix the position of the bulky garbage, thereby facilitating the rotating saw wheel 5 to cut the bulky garbage;

[0039] After the cutting is completed, the electric telescopic rod 6 drives the saw wheel 5 away from the loading cage 4 and resets it, and then the synchronous belt 3 controls the loading cage 4 to move to contact the water surface again. At this time, the bracket 2 is in a forward moving state, and the garbage that is still larger in volume remains inside the loading cage 4, waiting for the next cutting, thereby avoiding the situation where large-volume garbage occupies a large amount of space inside the collection box 7, and increasing the single salvage volume of floating garbage.

[0040] Two of the load cages 4 repeat the above steps in turn, that is, the water floating garbage can be continuously collected and fished, and when one load cage 4 is in the cutting position, the other load cage 4 is in the garbage interception state, so there will be no large volume garbage interception vacuum period, when the collection box 7 is full of garbage, the personnel control the propeller 201 to drive the support 2 to move to the shore, and then the personnel empty the collection box 7, and then the water floating garbage cleaning operation can be started again.

[0041] The surface of the collection box 7 has a plurality of rectangular holes, so that the collection box 7 is immersed in water, and the water floating garbage in the collection box 7 is still in a floating state, avoiding the interference of the weight of the water floating garbage on the load of the collection box 7, and further improving the single loading capacity of the collection box 7.

[0042] In addition, the cut water floating garbage mainly includes branches, and a large amount of debris is generated when the branches are sawn, the debris is loose and easy to absorb water and then settle to the bottom of the water, and the debris can improve the structure of the bottom mud and stabilize the water body ecology after being mixed with the bottom mud as primary organic matter.

[0043] The working principle of the present application is: the support 2 is moved forward by the propeller 201, so that the water flow successively and continuously passes through the load cage 4 and the collection box 7, the large volume garbage floating on the water surface is intercepted by the load cage 4, and the small volume garbage passes through the load cage 4 and is intercepted by the collection box 7, then the synchronous belt 3 controls the load cage 4 to move above the water surface, and the electric telescopic rod 6 pushes the rotating saw wheel 5 to move into the load cage 4, so as to cut the large volume garbage in the load cage 4, the small volume garbage cut out falls from the gap of the tines 401 to the water surface and enters the inside of the collection box 7 with the water flow, so as to avoid the case that the large volume garbage occupies a large amount of space in the inside of the collection box 7, and the single fishing amount of the water floating garbage is improved.

[0044] It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that the application is not limited to the details of the above-described exemplary embodiments, but can be implemented in other concrete forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the application. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the application is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended to encompass all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims. Any reference signs in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.

[0045] In addition, it should be understood that although the present specification is described in terms of embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution, and the description manner of the specification is only for the sake of clarity, and those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can be properly combined to form other embodiments that those skilled in the art can understand.
