Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of barnacle cleaning, in particular to a barnacle cleaning device for marine vessels. Background Art

[0002] Since the bottom and sides of ships are underwater for a long time, aquatic organisms are easily attached to the bottom of large ships. When the speed of the ship is lower than a certain level, marine organisms such as barnacles, shellfish, and seaweed will also attach and grow on the bottom and sides of the ship, and it is difficult to clean them. Therefore, if they are not cleaned regularly, the attached marine organisms will accumulate more and more, which will greatly increase the resistance to navigation, increase fuel consumption, and affect the economic benefits and energy conservation and environmental protection of ships. Especially marine organisms such as shellfish have a high degree of adhesion to the hull and are hard, which is not easy to clean. At the same time, these organisms will produce acidic corrosives, which are easy to cause serious corrosion to the hull. Large marine organisms will also suffer the same harm, and in serious cases, their lives will be threatened.

[0003] At present, there are two commonly used solutions for cleaning the hull. One is that the operators enter the dock to use manual cleaning methods, using tools such as brushes or shovels to remove the marine organisms attached to the bottom of the ship. The other is to send divers to carry cleaning equipment to enter the underwater cleaning method. The former is due to the limited number of docks, resulting in high costs for ship cleaning, and the limited number of docks makes it difficult to meet the cleaning needs of a large number of ships. The latter has extremely high technical requirements for divers, low cleaning efficiency, high work intensity, high risk, and is not conducive to efficient and fast cleaning of the bottom of the ship. The method of removing parasites from marine organisms is also only manual operation. Whether it is resource factors or environmental factors, it is a great challenge for marine life protection personnel. Traditional barnacle cleaning methods, such as physical removal and the use of chemical detergents, are effective, but the efficiency is relatively low. For example, scraping with a scraper or shovel requires manual operation, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also difficult to handle large areas or difficult-to-reach areas.

[0004] The existing problems of artificial barnacle cleaning are mainly reflected in the following aspects: Low cleaning efficiency: barnacles are attached to the surface of the hull, and the barnacle glue they secrete has extremely strong adhesion, making manual cleaning extremely difficult. Traditional physical cleaning methods, such as using brushes and scrapers, are direct and effective, but the cleaning process is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0005] High labor costs: Due to the strong adsorption of barnacles, high-pressure water guns and other tools are needed during the cleaning process, which increases labor costs. The large number of barnacles requires a lot of manpower to clean, resulting in a significant increase in labor costs.

[0006] Environmental pollution risk: When designing ships, the paint used on the bottom layer may be toxic in order to combat seabed parasites. Barnacles that parasitize on these paints for a long time may be toxic, and direct cleaning may result in the release of harmful substances into the environment. Using chemical methods to clean barnacles may cause environmental pollution and hull corrosion.

[0007] Health risks: Odors and hazardous substances generated during the cleaning process may pose a threat to the health of workers. Long cleaning work may cause fatigue and injury to workers.

[0008] Potential damage to the hull: Traditional physical cleaning methods may cause damage to the hull and coating, shortening the service life of the hull.

[0009] Economic losses: Marine biofouling, including barnacles, increases fuel consumption by ships worldwide by more than 40%, with economic losses reaching $7.5 billion. The U.S. Navy spends at least $250 million per year cleaning and repairing barnacles.

[0010] In summary, the existing problems of artificial barnacle cleaning are mainly reflected in low cleaning efficiency, high labor costs, environmental pollution risks, health risks, potential damage to the hull and economic losses. Utility Model Content
