Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a debris barrier, and more particularly to a heavy-duty floating debris interception barrier. Background Technology

[0002] A pollution barrier, also known as an ecological restoration pollution barrier or pollution curtain, is a floating barrier primarily used to prevent the large-scale spread of silt, sediment, sewage, and other pollutants in water bodies. It effectively intercepts and treats pollutants, protecting water quality, and can also be used in scientific research or aquatic engineering projects such as water body restoration and aquatic system reconstruction.

[0003] The existing debris barriers use a combination of chains and floats at the top, which limits the portion that floats above the water surface. When subjected to heavy debris (such as large tree trunks or large floating containers), the existing chain structure of the debris barriers is not rigid enough. Heavy debris can also easily become entangled with the debris barriers, causing inconvenience to subsequent cleaning and affecting the smooth progress of debris barrier operations. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a heavy-duty floating object interception screen that can effectively intercept heavy debris and facilitate subsequent cleaning.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A heavy-duty floating object interception screen, including

[0007] An interception mechanism, comprising at least two sets and floating on the water surface, for intercepting pollutants floating on the water surface;

[0008] A connecting mechanism is provided between two adjacent sets of interception mechanisms to connect the two sets of interception mechanisms;

[0009] The interception mechanism includes

[0010] tube body;

[0011] A buffer tube is wound around the outside of the tube body;

[0012] End plates are sealed on both sides of the tube to form a sealed cavity inside the tube.

[0013] Preferably, the tube is filled with foam material.

[0014] Preferably, the buffer tube is filled with elastic filler.

[0015] Preferably, the tube body is provided with a counterweight bar extending along the axial direction of the tube body, and the counterweight bar is eccentrically fixed to the inner wall of the tube body.

[0016] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes a connecting plate that is fixed to the outside of the pipe body by bolts, the connecting plate being disposed on the same side as the counterweight bar, and a connecting chain being detachably threaded through the connecting plate.

[0017] Preferably, the connecting mechanism further includes a flexible body, the two ends of which are detachably connected to two opposite end plates by bolts.

[0018] Preferably, the connecting plate is provided with a hinge, and an intercepting net is connected to the hinge.

[0019] Beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. The main body of this solution for intercepting large debris is a tube with a certain rigidity to ensure that it will not become entangled with the debris during interception, facilitating subsequent cleaning. Simultaneously, a buffer tube is wrapped around the outside of the tube to greatly reduce the impact on the tube when large debris collides with it, preventing damage or breakage due to impact during interception and ensuring stable debris interception.

[0021] 2. Set a counterweight bar to ensure the stability of the interception mechanism when intercepting waste, and prevent unnecessary tumbling of the pipe body when intercepting waste, which could cause large waste to pass through the tumbling pipe body.

[0022] 3. Fixing a connecting plate to the outside of the tube body, on the same side as the counterweight bar, further increases the stability of the interception mechanism. Simultaneously, placing the connecting plate externally facilitates the subsequent connection of two sets of interception mechanisms via chains.

[0023] 4. A flexible body is installed to connect the gap between the two sets of interception mechanisms, preventing small debris from passing through the gap between the two sets of interception mechanisms and improving the interception efficiency of debris.

[0024] 5. Setting up an interception net not only increases the stability of the interception mechanism but also intercepts underwater debris, further improving the interception effect. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 The heavy-duty floating debris interception screen shown includes at least two sets of interception mechanisms 100 and a connecting mechanism 200 for connecting adjacent sets of interception mechanisms. The interception mechanisms, once placed in water, can float on the water surface to intercept debris floating on the water. The connecting mechanism connects all the interception mechanisms in series, making them a unified whole, achieving centralized interception of debris within a certain width on the water surface.

[0032] It should be noted that the interception mechanism in this solution is primarily designed to address issues such as entanglement and breakage that arise when traditional debris barriers intercept large debris (large tree trunks, boxes, etc.). Specifically, for example... Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the interception mechanism 100 includes a rigid tube 110 made of corrosion-resistant polymer resin material, possessing a certain degree of toughness to withstand the impact of large debris. Each end of the tube is sealed with an end plate 130 by bolts, forming a sealed cavity inside the tube, allowing it to float stably in the water. To extend the tube's lifespan, a buffer tube 120 is spirally wound around the outside of the tube 110. The buffer tube ensures that large debris impacts the buffer tube 120 before contacting the interception mechanism, preventing the tube from breaking or being damaged by direct impact.

[0033] It is important to understand that in this design, the pipe body serves as the main buoyancy source. If it ruptures and leaks internally, the interception mechanism may sink, affecting the effectiveness of debris interception. Therefore, this design proposes the following preferred solution: Specifically, the cavity formed by the pipe body and the end plate is filled with foam material 140. Even if the pipe body experiences a partial rupture leading to internal leakage, the internal foam material will already occupy the internal space of the pipe body, preventing excessive entry of denser water and thus preventing the pipe body from sinking below the water surface and failing to effectively intercept debris.

[0034] Furthermore, it's important to understand that the buffer tube can deform (collapse or crack) after repeated impacts. In this case, the buffering effect of the buffer tube 120 will be significantly reduced. To maintain the buffering effect, in addition to the above-mentioned solution, elastic filler 150 can be filled into the buffer tube. The presence of this elastic filler can improve the buffer tube's resistance to deformation and also allow the buffer tube to maintain its basic buffering function even after cracking.

[0035] Furthermore, once this device floats in the water, its constraint is primarily axial tension from both ends, making the pipe highly susceptible to rotation. When large debris floats to its point of contact, its significant inertia can cause the pipe to tumble upon impact with the interception mechanism's pipe. Some debris may then be carried over the interception mechanism by the tumbling pipe, reducing the barrier's effectiveness. Therefore, a stable structure is necessary for the barrier. Specifically, it needs to prevent continuous tumbling of the pipe within the interception mechanism. To achieve this, a counterweight 160 can be fixedly installed within the pipe 110. This counterweight is made of a high-density metal and is eccentrically fixed to one side of the pipe's inner wall. Under the influence of this counterweight, the pipe will stably maintain the counterweight side at its lowest position, effectively reducing tumbling caused by impact. It should be noted that by reducing tumbling, the load on the connecting mechanism will also be greatly reduced, thus minimizing the risk of breakage due to torsion and extending the service life of the connecting mechanism 200.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in this design, the connecting mechanism 200 includes a connecting plate 210 bolted to the outside of the pipe body 110. This connecting plate is positioned on the same side as the counterweight bar, further increasing the stability of the pipe body. Simultaneously, the bolts of the connecting plate pass through the counterweight bar 160 and connect to the connecting plate, also protecting the pipe body and preventing it from cracking due to axial tension. Figure 2 As shown, a connecting chain 230 is also connected to the end of the connecting plate. This connecting chain is detachable and its length is adjustable, so that the gap between two adjacent sets of intercepting mechanisms 100 can be flexibly adjusted.

[0037] It should be noted that, based on the above scheme, to ensure that fine debris flows between the two sets of interception mechanisms, the connecting mechanism also includes a flexible body 220, which is typically made of corrosion-resistant rubber sheet. Figure 1 As shown, the two ends of the flexible body are fixed to the end plates at both ends with bolts to intercept contaminants between the two sets of interception mechanisms. It should also be noted that because the tensile strength of the flexible body is lower than that of the connecting chain, the length of the flexible body in this design is greater than the length of the connecting chain to ensure the safety of the flexible body.

[0038] Finally, in practical use, some pollutants will be suspended in the water. To effectively intercept this pollutant, a hinge 240 can be installed on the lower surface of the connecting plate 210, and an interception net 300 is connected to this hinge. When the interception mechanism is submerged in the water, the interception net will sink, effectively intercepting the pollutants suspended in the water. In practical implementation, the sinking depth of the interception net 300 can be flexibly customized according to required requirements.

[0039] Working Principle: In this system, multiple interception mechanisms are connected via a link mechanism and submerged in the water in a long, narrow shape. Meanwhile, the tubes within the interception mechanisms float to the surface. When large debris floats in, it first impacts the buffer tube. The buffer tube cushions the impact, significantly reducing the risk of cracking. The large debris is then intercepted. It's worth noting that because the tubes are non-flexible, the interception mechanism doesn't become entangled in the debris, making subsequent cleanup easier.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
