Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of garbage disposal, and in particular relates to a novel and efficient microplastic garbage cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Studies have shown that coastal areas and riverbanks are the most efficient environments for the fragmentation of large plastics. Large plastics are eventually broken down into microplastics through physical, chemical, and biological processes. Due to the particle size effect of microplastics, they are easily ingested by organisms once they enter the aquatic environment, affecting the health of the food chain and ecosystem. To clean up microplastic waste in beach environments, there are currently related beach waste treatment devices that are used to process large and small waste and microplastics on the beach. For example, the Chinese invention patent entitled "Intelligent Multifunctional Beach Waste Disposal Machine" with publication number CN115748570A uses a roller feeding mechanism to feed waste from the beach into a conveying mechanism, and then uses a separation device to sort the waste. However, due to its relatively complex structure, the efficiency of separating microplastic waste is low. Utility Model Content

[0004] A novel and efficient microplastic garbage cleaning device includes a microplastic collection module and a separation module, both of which are installed on a driving trolley. The microplastic collection module includes a material suction component, and the separation module includes a primary separation component and a secondary separation component. The primary separation component includes a processing chamber, which contains a solution, and the secondary separation component includes a microplastic collection chamber and a filter screen. The material suction component sucks material into the processing chamber during the movement of the driving trolley, and automatically stratifies the material in the processing chamber based on the difference in density between the material and the solution. The material includes sand and microplastics, and the sand sinks to the bottom of the solution, while the microplastics float on the surface of the solution. The microplastics and the solution enter the microplastic collection chamber through a pipe, while the sand is retained in the processing chamber, thereby achieving primary separation. The microplastics are retained in the microplastic collection chamber through the filter screen, while the solution is discharged from the microplastic collection chamber, thereby achieving secondary separation.

[0020] Example 1

[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a new and efficient microplastic waste cleaning device includes a microplastic collection module, a separation module and a water circulation module installed on a driving trolley.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 The microplastic collection module includes a bucket 1, a suction device 3, and a feeding pipe 4. The bucket 1 is installed at the front of the driving vehicle. One end of the suction device 3 is connected to the bucket 1, and the other end is connected to the processing chamber 15 through the feeding pipe 4. When the driving vehicle moves, the suction device 3 sucks sand and microplastics into the processing chamber 15 of the separation module through the bucket 1 and the feeding pipe 4.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the separation module includes a processing chamber 15, a cover 16, a push rod motor 17, a microplastic collection tube 14, a microplastic collection chamber 13, a separation tube 10, and a filter 11. The processing chamber 15 is mounted on a platform of a driving trolley. The processing chamber 15 is filled with water, and a sand outlet is provided at the bottom of the processing chamber 15. The driving trolley has a through slot corresponding to the sand outlet of the processing chamber 15. The push rod motor 17 is mounted in the through slot. The driving end of the push rod motor 17 is equipped with a cover 16 for blocking the sand outlet. The push rod motor 17 drives the cover 16 to move, thereby opening or closing the sand outlet of the processing chamber 15.

[0024] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 As shown, the microplastic collection chamber 13 is installed on the platform of the driving vehicle. A microplastic collection conduit 14 and a separation conduit 10 are installed on the microplastic collection chamber 13. The microplastic collection chamber 13 is connected to the processing chamber 15 through the microplastic collection conduit 14. The separation conduit 10 has a built-in filter 11. It should be noted that the connection between the microplastic collection conduit 14 and the processing chamber 15 is adapted to the amount of water in the processing chamber 15, ensuring that microplastics floating on the water surface can enter the microplastic collection chamber 13 through the microplastic collection conduit 14. The microplastics and water in the microplastic collection chamber 13 are separated by the filter 11 in the separation conduit 10, retaining the microplastics in the microplastic collection chamber 13 and draining the water through the separation conduit 10.

[0025] The distribution of sand, water, and microplastics inside the treatment chamber 15 and the movement trends of sand, water, and microplastics are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the different densities of sand, water, and microplastics are utilized to achieve automatic separation. Specifically, because sand is denser than water, the sand in processing chamber 15 sinks to the bottom of the water, while microplastics, which are less dense than water, float on the surface, forming a distinct three-layer distribution. Therefore, the microplastics and water can be discharged into microplastic collection chamber 13 through microplastic collection conduit 14 for secondary separation. The sand at the bottom of processing chamber 15 can be discharged through the sand outlet.

[0026] The water circulation module includes a return water pump 9 and a water circulation conduit 8. The water inlet of the return water pump 9 is connected to the water outlet of the separation conduit 10. One end of the water circulation conduit 8 is connected to the water outlet of the return water pump 9, and the other end is connected to the processing chamber 15. On the one hand, the return water pump 9 can accelerate the speed at which microplastics and water enter the microplastic collection chamber 15. On the other hand, the return water pump 9 can re-transport the water filtered by the filter 11 through the water circulation conduit 8 to the processing chamber 15 to realize water circulation, which can reduce resource waste.

[0027] Working Principle: This new and efficient microplastic waste cleaning device is used by driving the trolley forward on the beach. During this process, the suction device 3 draws sand and microplastics into the processing chamber 15 of the separation module through the bucket 1 and the feed pipe 4. The sand, water, and microplastics are automatically separated within the processing chamber 15 by utilizing the different densities of the sand, water, and microplastics, forming a three-layer distribution from top to bottom: microplastics, water, and sand. The return water pump 9 then draws the microplastics and water into the separation pipe 10. The filter 11 inside the separation pipe 10 is used to process the microplastics, retaining them in the microplastic collection chamber 13. The water, through the interaction between the separation pipe 10, the return water pump 9, and the water circulation pipe 8, flows back to the processing chamber 15 for recycling. Furthermore, the push rod motor 17 drives the cover 16 to move, opening the sand outlet of the processing chamber 15, allowing sand to flow out through the sand outlet, thus achieving sand cleaning.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the structure of this embodiment is basically the same as that of the first embodiment, except that when sand is discharged from the sand outlet, part of the water in the processing chamber 15 is also discharged, resulting in a reduction in the amount of water in the processing chamber 15. When the amount of water in the processing chamber 15 is reduced too much, the working efficiency of the device will be affected. Therefore, this embodiment further provides a water adding module, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the water adding module includes a water tank 7, a water inlet conduit 12, a water outlet conduit 5, a water level sensor 6, and a water supply and pumping pump 2. The water tank 7 and the water supply and pumping pump 2 are installed on the platform of the driving vehicle. The water inlet end of the water supply and pumping pump 2 is connected to the water tank 7 through the water inlet conduit 12, and the water outlet end of the water supply and pumping pump 2 is connected to the processing chamber 15 through the water outlet conduit 5. The water level sensor 6 is disposed in the processing chamber 15 and monitors the water level in the processing chamber 15 through the water level sensor 6. If the water level in the processing chamber 15 is insufficient, the water in the water tank 7 is transported to the processing chamber 15 through the water supply and pumping pump 2 to ensure the separation effect. When the water level sensor 6 detects that the water level in the processing chamber 15 is sufficient, the water supply and pumping pump 2 stops working. The water adding module ensures that the water level in the processing chamber 15 is normal, thereby ensuring the separation efficiency and separation effect.
