The limitations and cumbersome process of manual operation will lead to low cleaning efficiency and potential dangers, which may threaten the lives of humans. Therefore, a surface garbage cleaning robot is needed.

Its characteristics are that this small water surface cleaning robot improves the efficiency of water surface cleaning and reduces the labor intensity of workers, but the disadvantage is that for bottle-shaped floating objects, such as beverage bottles and mineral water bottles, it is not easy to salvage the bottle-shaped floating objects into the storage box by using an inclined conveyor belt for salvaging because the bottle-shaped floating objects are easy to roll.

[0004] In addition, Chinese patent document CN216070430U, published (announcement) date: 2022.03.18, discloses an efficient surface garbage collection robot, including a hull 1, a hull top cover 3, a sweeper 9, a garbage storage box 18, a propeller 2, and a mechanical arm, wherein the mechanical arm is composed of a steering gear base 10, a rear short arm connecting rod 11, a rear long arm connecting rod 12, a forearm connecting rod 13, a collecting shovel 14 and a steering gear 15. Its characteristics are that although it can be used to salvage bottle-shaped floating objects, and the central control system controls the robot's mechanical arm and the sweeper 9 to achieve efficient garbage collection, and the Beidou positioning module and the camera are installed to provide the operator with accurate environmental information, but its disadvantage is that it drives the sweeper 9 to rotate clockwise by the servo motor 5 to roll the floating garbage into the storage box 18. When encountering strip-shaped or bag-shaped floating objects, they are easily entangled in the sweeper 9, causing the sweeper 9 to get stuck. Utility Model Content
