[0019] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. 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. Example
[0020] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a self-regulating sluice gate structure based on river flood season in a first aspect embodiment of the present invention includes a gate body 1, a gate plate that can move up and down is provided inside the gate body 1, and also includes a blocking component, a tossing component, and a retrieval component. The blocking components can move up and down with the water surface, and some components can float on the water surface while others can be inserted underwater to block debris floating on the water. The actuating component is mounted on the blocking component. Under predetermined conditions, the actuating component can slide, causing the blocking component to rotate, thereby collecting floating debris on the water surface. The retrieval component is located on the side of the blocking component away from the gate body 1, and the retrieval component can move in both the vertical and horizontal directions.
[0021] When this device is in use, the gate body 1 is installed in the water. Debris such as tree branches generally have low buoyancy and can float on the water surface. The blocking component can block them to prevent them from passing through the gate body 1. When the debris accumulates to a certain extent, the actuating component can be actuated, thereby causing the blocking component to rotate and bring the debris floating on the water surface away from the water. Then the retrieval component can remove the debris from the blocking component, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the debris on the water surface. After cleaning, the blocking component is reset for the next use.
[0022] A first drive motor 2 is fixedly connected to the gate body 1. A rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor 2. The rotating shaft 3 extends downward. A guide rail 4 is fixedly connected to the side of the gate body 1. The blocking component can move up and down along the guide rail 4. The blocking component can float up and down with the water surface. When the blocking component floats up and down, it can move up and down along the guide rail 4 to limit the movement trajectory of the blocking component.
[0023] The blocking assembly includes a rotating frame 8, a first blocking tooth 9, and a second blocking tooth 17. Both the first blocking tooth 9 and the second blocking tooth 17 are mounted on the rotating frame 8. The first blocking tooth 9 extends downward to block impurities floating on the water surface, while the second blocking tooth 17 extends horizontally. The end of the rotating frame 8 is inserted into a sliding unit, allowing the rotating frame 8 to rotate on the sliding unit. After the first blocking tooth 9 blocks impurities floating on the water surface, as the rotating frame 8 rotates, the first blocking tooth 9 can rotate out of the water surface, thereby trapping the impurities between the first blocking tooth 9 and the second blocking tooth 17.
[0024] The sliding unit includes a slider 5, a connecting rod 6, and a float 7. The slider 5 has a notch 14, and a rotatable wheel 15 is located on the side wall of the notch 14. A groove 16 is formed on the guide rail 4, and the wheel 15 extends into the groove 16. The upper end of the connecting rod 6 is fixedly connected to the slider 5, and its lower end is fixedly connected to the float 7. An installation groove 20 is also formed on the connecting rod 6, located above the float 7. The end of the rotating frame 8 is inserted into the installation groove 20. The float 7 can float on the water surface and rise and fall with the water level. When the float 7 rises and falls, the slider 5 can slide on the guide rail 4 to fix the direction of movement of the connecting rod 6. The float 7 can be made of foam material or an airbag structure.
[0025] The lower end of the rotating shaft 3 is inserted into the connecting rod 6, and a worm gear 19 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 3. A worm wheel 18 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating frame 8. The worm wheel 18 and the worm gear 19 cooperate so that when the first drive motor 2 rotates, the rotating frame 8 can rotate accordingly. When the rotating shaft 3 rotates, the worm wheel 18 and the worm gear 19 can cooperate with each other, thereby causing the rotating frame 8 to rotate.
[0026] The rotating frame 8 can move up and down. To ensure that the worm gear 19 does not affect the rotating frame 8 when it moves up and down, and that the worm wheel 18 and the worm gear 19 can cooperate to transmit power when needed, the following structure is provided: The actuating assembly includes a spindle 29, a rotating ring 22 and a push rod 24. The spindle 29 is coaxially arranged inside the rotating frame 8. The first blocking tooth 9 is fixed to the spindle 29, and the second blocking tooth 17 is fixed to the rotating frame 8. A rotating groove 21 is provided on the rotating frame 8, and the first blocking tooth 9 passes through the rotating groove 21. A rotating ring 22 is provided inside the rotating frame 8, and an opening is provided on the rotating ring 22. The first blocking tooth 9 passes through the opening. A gear 23 is also installed inside the rotating frame 8. The rotating ring 22 and the push rod 24 are both meshed with the gear 23, so that when the first blocking tooth 9 rotates, the first blocking tooth 9 can actuate the rotating ring 22 and cause the push rod 24 to slide. In the initial position, the worm gear 18 and worm 19 are not in contact. As the float 7 moves up and down, the rotating frame 8 can also move up and down, causing part of the first blocking tooth 9 to be below the water surface and part to be above the water surface, thus cleaning impurities on the water surface. When enough impurities accumulate on one side of the first blocking tooth 9, the first blocking tooth 9 can rotate, thereby causing the push rod 24 to extend outside the rotating frame 8. At this time, the worm gear 18 and worm 19 can contact each other, so that when the worm 19 rotates, the worm gear 18 can drive the rotating frame 8 to rotate together. Moreover, when the rotating frame 8 rotates, the impurities on it can press on the first blocking tooth 9. As the water flows, the pressure on the first blocking tooth 9 increases. After reaching a certain level, the first blocking tooth 9 can rotate and actuate the rotating ring 22. At this time, the rotating ring 22 rotates and actuates the gear 23, thereby causing the push rod 24 to extend outside the rotating frame 8, so that the push rod 24 can always extend outside the rotating frame 8 to ensure that the worm gear 18 and worm 19 cooperate with each other.
[0027] The top rod 24 is fitted with a first spring 25, and a limiting block 26 is fixedly connected to the top rod 24. A limiting groove 27 is provided in the rotating frame 8, and the limiting block 26 is located in the limiting groove 27. The limiting block 26 can slide out of the limiting groove 27 and slide outside the rotating frame 8. When the top rod 24 slides out of the rotating frame 8 and abuts against the side wall of the mounting groove 20, the worm gear 18 can cooperate with the worm 19.
[0028] The connecting rod 6 is further provided with a first half 30 and a second half 35, which are respectively locked outside the rotating frame 8. A second spring 31 is installed on the side of the first half 30, and a toggle rod 33 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first half 30. A switch 34 for controlling the first drive motor 2 is provided at the upper end of the slider 5. When the push rod 24 extends outside the rotating frame 8, the first half 30 can be pushed so that the toggle rod 33 can toggle the switch 34. A third spring 36 is installed on the second half 35. When the push rod 24 extends outside the rotating frame 8, the second half 35 can be pushed so that the worm gear 18 can cooperate with the worm 19. A fixing rod 28 is also fixedly connected to the connecting rod 6.
[0029] When the push rod 24 extends outside the rotating frame 8, it can also actuate the first half 30, causing the actuating rod 33 on it to actuate the switch 34. When the switch 34 is actuated, the first drive motor 2 can run, causing the rotating frame 8 to rotate to retrieve debris from the water surface and remove it using the retrieval assembly. Then, the first drive motor 2 can reverse, causing the rotating frame 8 to reverse. When the rotating frame 8 reverses to the predetermined position, the first blocking tooth 9 can be blocked by the fixing rod 28. At this time, the first blocking tooth 9 engages with the other end of the rotating ring 22, causing the rotating ring 22 to rotate and pulling the push rod 24 into the rotating frame 8.
[0030] The salvage assembly includes a fixed frame 10, which is fixedly connected to the gate body 1. A rotatable rotating wheel 11 is provided on the fixed frame 10. A first lead screw 12 passes through the rotating wheel 11, and a cleaning tooth 13 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the first lead screw 12. A second drive motor 37 is also provided at one end of the fixed frame 10. A second lead screw 38 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second drive motor 37. A sliding groove 39 is provided in the fixed frame 10, and a sliding block 40 is provided in the sliding groove 39. The rotating wheel 11 is rotatably mounted on the sliding block 40, and the second lead screw 38 passes through the sliding block 40 and is threadedly engaged with the sliding block 40. When the rotating frame 8 rotates, the user adjusts the first lead screw 12 so that the cleaning tooth 13 can remove the debris between the first blocking tooth 9 and the second blocking tooth 17. Then, the second drive motor 37 is turned on. At this time, the cleaning tooth 13 removes the debris on the first blocking tooth 9 and the second blocking tooth 17 to one end, making it convenient for the user to clean them.
