Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of waterborne environmental protection equipment technology, specifically to a smart waterborne waste recycling device. Background Technology

[0002] With water pollution becoming increasingly prominent, cleaning up surface garbage has become a crucial aspect of environmental protection. Currently, aquatic garbage collection mainly relies on manual dredging and simple mechanical devices. Manual dredging is inefficient, labor-intensive, and unsafe in complex waters (such as shallows, reed beds, and areas with large waves). Existing mechanical collection devices often suffer from simple structures, insufficient flexibility, and poor adaptability to water terrain. They easily disturb the aquatic environment during operation, leading to the spread of garbage, and are difficult to integrate with garbage collection, retrieval, and recycling. Furthermore, they lack intelligent control capabilities and cannot adaptively adjust their operation based on actual water conditions, significantly impacting the efficiency and effectiveness of garbage collection.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent waterborne waste recycling device that can adapt to complex waters, operate flexibly and smoothly, recycle waste efficiently, and cause minimal disturbance to the aquatic environment, in order to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent waterborne waste recycling device.

[0005] To achieve intelligent and integrated recycling of surface waste, improve operational efficiency, reduce water disturbance, and adapt to the needs of operations in complex water areas.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a smart waterborne waste recycling device, characterized in that it comprises: One end of the hinge is fixed to the front of the hull with bolts, while the other end is detachably connected to the wave deflector, forming a rotatable connection. One end of the mechanical arm is connected to the middle of the hull on both sides via a rudder, and the other end is connected to the mechanical arm via a rudder. A strainer is placed on the hull's locking mechanism. The water pump is installed in the upper part of the hull's inner compartment, with its inlet connected to the bottom water inlet via a pipe, and its outlet extending to the outside of the hull via a pipe to connect to the outside water. Propellers are symmetrically installed on both sides of the stern, each propeller equipped with an independent motor, which is electrically connected to the control unit. The vision perception module is installed on a bracket on the top of the hull and is electrically connected to the control unit.

[0007] Preferably, the hull serves as the mounting base for the device, supporting various functional components and ensuring the overall buoyancy and structural stability of the device. One end of the hinge is connected to the front of the hull, and the other end is connected to the wave deflector, enabling a rotatable connection between the wave deflector and the hull. This allows the wave deflector to adaptively adjust its angle according to the hull's draft. The wave deflector is made of a material with a density less than water, ensuring that its front end remains two to three centimeters underwater regardless of the hull's draft. This effectively blocks wind and waves while accurately picking up floating debris.

[0008] Preferably, the mechanical upper arm and the mechanical lower arm constitute the main body of the mechanical arm. One end of the mechanical upper arm is connected to both sides of the hull, and the other end is connected to the mechanical lower arm through a servo motor. The servo motor is used to control the rotation angle of the mechanical lower arm to achieve precise adjustment of the working angle. The end of the mechanical lower arm can cooperate with a strainer. The strainer is used to pick up and recycle the collected garbage, prevent the garbage from falling, and improve the stability of recycling.

[0009] Preferably, the water pump is installed in the hull of the ship, with the water inlet connected to the bottom of the hull and the water outlet connected to the outside water area. It is used to adjust the draft of the hull and adapt to operation in waters of different depths. In conjunction with the adaptive angle of the wave deflector, the stability of the device operation is further improved.

[0010] Preferably, the propellers are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the stern to provide propulsion for the device. By adjusting the speed difference between the two propellers, the device can flexibly turn, move forward and backward, improving its maneuverability in complex waters and facilitating its movement to areas with concentrated garbage.

[0011] Preferably, the visual perception module is installed on the top of the hull and includes a camera and an image recognition unit. It is used to collect information on the distribution of garbage on the water surface and the topography of the water area in real time, and transmit the collected signals to the control unit to provide data support for the coordinated operation of components such as robotic arms, propellers, and water pumps, and realize intelligent control.

[0013] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0014] Please see Figure 1 One embodiment of the present invention provides: a single-ridge adaptive wheeled electric chassis, characterized in that it comprises: The hull (11) is made of high-strength lightweight alloy material, which ensures the overall buoyancy of the device and improves the structural stability, providing a foundation for the installation of various functional components. The hinge (2) is made of stainless steel, with one end fixedly connected to the front of the hull (11) by bolts, and the other end detachably connected to the wave deflector (10), so as to realize the rotatable connection between the wave deflector (10) and the hull (11), ensuring that the wave deflector (10) can adaptively adjust its angle according to the draft of the hull (11).

[0015] The wave deflector (10) is made of a lightweight, corrosion-resistant material (such as engineering plastic) with a density less than that of water. Its size matches the width of the front of the hull (11), ensuring that the front end of the wave deflector (10) is always 2-3 cm underwater, regardless of how the draft of the hull (11) changes. This effectively blocks wind and waves, reduces the turbulence of the hull (11), and precisely fits the water surface, making it easy to pick up floating garbage. The upper surface of the wave deflector (10) can be equipped with an inclined guide structure to guide the garbage to gather towards the strain net (1), thereby improving the picking efficiency.

[0016] Both the mechanical arm (7) and the mechanical arm (9) are made of lightweight high-strength alloy. One end of the mechanical arm (7) is installed at the middle of both sides of the hull (11) via a servo motor (8), and the other end is connected to the mechanical arm (9) via a servo motor (8). The servo motor (8) is a high-precision servo motor, which is electrically connected to the control unit and can accurately control the rotation angle of the mechanical arm (9) (rotation angle range 0-180°) to adapt to the garbage recycling needs of different locations. The end of the mechanical arm (9) is detachably connected to the strain net (1) via a buckle, which facilitates the cleaning and replacement of the strain net (1).

[0017] The strain net (1) is made of corrosion-resistant engineering plastic material. The mesh size can be flexibly set according to the size of the garbage (preferably 0.5-2cm). It can effectively pick up various floating garbage (including plastic bottles, branches, foam, paper scraps, etc.) and avoid excessive water impurities clogging the net.

[0018] The water pump (4) is a small submersible pump, installed in the upper part of the inner cabin of the hull (11). The water inlet of the water pump (4) is connected to the water inlet hole at the bottom of the hull (11) through a pipe, and the water outlet is extended to the outside of the hull (11) through a pipe and connected to the outside water. The start-up, shutdown and speed of the water pump (4) are controlled by the control unit. By pumping or discharging water from the hull (11), the draft of the hull (11) is precisely controlled to adapt to waters of different depths (such as reducing the draft in shallow areas and increasing the draft in deep water areas), so as to avoid the hull (11) from running aground or being bumped. At the same time, in conjunction with the adaptive angle of the wave deflector (10), the stability of the operation is further improved.

[0019] The propeller (3) is a propulsion propeller, symmetrically installed on the tail of both sides of the hull (11). Each propeller (3) is equipped with an independent drive motor, which is electrically connected to the control unit. By adjusting the speed difference between the two propellers (3) (e.g., the speed of the left propeller is higher than that of the right propeller, the hull (11) turns to the right; the speed of the right propeller is higher than that of the left propeller, the hull (11) turns to the left), the hull (11) can flexibly turn, move forward and backward, improve the mobility of the device in complex waters (such as reed beds and bends), and facilitate its movement to garbage collection areas for operation.

[0020] The visual perception module (5) includes a high-definition camera and an image recognition chip, which are installed on a bracket on the top of the hull (11). The camera can rotate 360° to collect the distribution location and quantity of garbage on the water surface in real time, as well as the topography of the water area (such as shoals and obstacles). The image recognition chip processes the collected images, extracts the effective information and transmits it to the control unit. The control system automatically adjusts the working position of the mechanical boom (7) and mechanical arm (9), the speed and direction of the propeller (3), and the working status of the water pump (4) according to the information, so as to realize the adaptive cruise of the water area and intelligent garbage recycling.

[0021] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: During operation, the control unit is activated, the visual perception module (5) begins to collect water area information and transmits it to the control unit. The control system controls the water pump (4) to adjust the draft of the hull (11) according to the water area topography information, ensuring that the hull (11) sails smoothly. At this time, the wave deflector (10) relies on its density being less than that of water and is combined with the rotatable connection of the hinge (2). Its front end is automatically kept 2-3 cm underwater, blocking the wind and waves while guiding the floating garbage in front to the vicinity of the device.

[0022] According to the garbage distribution information transmitted by the visual perception module (5), the control system controls the propellers (3) on both sides to adjust the speed difference and drive the hull (11) to move to the garbage concentration area. Then, the control motor (6) starts and drives the mechanical arm (7) to extend. At the same time, the angle of the mechanical arm (9) is adjusted by the servo motor (8) so that the net (1) is in contact with the water surface, gathers the garbage and picks it up into the net (1). After the garbage is picked up, the control mechanical arm (7) rotates and moves the net (1) to the garbage recycling compartment above the hull (11). The unloading structure of the net (1) is opened and the garbage is poured into the recycling compartment to complete the recycling operation.

[0023] During the operation, the visual perception module (5) continuously collects information and the control system adjusts the status of each component in real time. If there are wind waves or changes in water depth, the water pump (4) adjusts the draft of the hull (11) in real time, and the wave deflector (10) adjusts its angle adaptively through the hinge (2) to ensure that its front end is always 2-3 cm underwater, thus ensuring the stability of the operation. If different sizes of garbage are encountered, the angle of the mechanical arm (9) can be adjusted through the servo motor (8) to adapt to the garbage picking needs and improve the recycling efficiency.
