Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of light oil recovery technology on the water surface, specifically a high-efficiency light oil recovery device for the water surface. Background Technology

[0002] Light oil spills typically refer to hydrocarbon mixtures with boiling points ranging from approximately 50 to 350°C. These can be obtained from processes such as crude oil distillation and include distillate fractions of gasoline, kerosene, and light diesel oil. In the chemical industry, it is also known as light oil and is primarily used as a feedstock for ethylene production. In oil spill incidents, light oil tends to spread easily on the water surface, posing a significant environmental impact.

[0003] In the field of light oil recovery on water surfaces, existing recovery devices typically suffer from complex structures, cumbersome operations, and low recovery efficiency. These devices often rely on a single recovery principle, such as adsorption, fencing, or mechanical recovery, which limits their applicability and efficiency in different environments. Furthermore, due to the variability of the water surface environment, such as wind speed, water flow, oil type, and leakage volume, existing technologies struggle to achieve rapid, comprehensive, and efficient recovery of light oil.

[0004] Therefore, based on the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a high-efficiency recovery device for light oil on the water surface. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a highly efficient device for recovering light oil from water surfaces, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

A recovery mechanism is arranged between the four sets of corner floats. The recovery mechanism includes a motor cavity on each corner float, a hydraulic motor inside the motor cavity, and an oil collection tray assembly connected to the output end of the hydraulic motor. Multiple oil guide grooves are installed on the support of the oil collection tray assembly. An oil channel is provided below the oil guide grooves. A screen plate is arranged between the multiple sets of corner floats. An oil sump is arranged below the screen plate, and an oil extraction pipe is arranged at the bottom of the oil sump.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the oil pumping pipe is connected to an oil pumping device for transporting the collected oil to a designated storage or processing device.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the sieve plate can effectively separate oil-water mixtures, ensuring the purity of the recovered oil and effectively intercepting larger impurities.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the oil collection tray assembly is fitted with an oil collection tray shell, and the oil collection tray shell is connected to the corner floats.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, a motor housing is provided outside the motor cavity.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, a float fixing component is provided on the outer side of the corner float, and a reinforcement frame is provided below the corner float, which is connected to the reinforcement frame through an assembly.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention relates to a high-efficiency recovery device for light oil spills on water surfaces. The device incorporates an oil collection tray assembly, a sieve plate, and an oil tank channel, enabling it to utilize multiple recovery principles simultaneously, such as mechanical recovery and oil-water separation. This significantly improves recovery efficiency and applicability. The device features a simple structural design, is easy to operate, and can quickly respond to oil spills, effectively reducing the environmental impact of light oil spills.

[0015] A hydraulic motor drives the oil collection tray assembly to move rapidly across the water surface to collect oil. The oil collection tray housing protects the assembly from external factors, ensuring recovery efficiency. A screen plate separates the oil and water mixture during the recovery process, ensuring the purity of the oil. The oil tank channel and oil sump are responsible for transporting the collected oil to the pumping pipe, and finally to storage or processing equipment via pumping equipment.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for a high-efficiency recovery device for light oil on the water surface: it includes four sets of corner floats 11, and a recovery mechanism is arranged between the four sets of corner floats 11. The recovery mechanism includes a motor cavity 12 arranged on the corner floats 11, a hydraulic motor 21 arranged in the motor cavity 12, an oil collection tray assembly 22 connected to the output end of the hydraulic motor 21, multiple oil guide grooves 23 mounted on the support of the oil collection tray assembly, an oil channel 24 arranged below the oil guide grooves 23, a screen plate 25 arranged between the multiple sets of corner floats 11, an oil pan 26 arranged below the screen plate 25, and an oil suction pipe 27 arranged at the bottom of the oil pan 26.

[0025] The oil extraction pipe 27 connects to the oil extraction equipment and is used to transport the collected oil to a designated storage or processing facility. The sieve plate 25 effectively separates oil-water mixtures, ensuring the purity of the recovered oil while effectively intercepting larger impurities. The oil collection tray assembly 22 is fitted with an oil collection tray shell 15, which is connected to the corner float 11. The motor cavity 12 is fitted with a motor housing 13. The corner float 11 is fitted with a float fixing member 14 on its outer side, and a reinforcing frame 16 is fitted below the corner float 11 and connected to the reinforcing frame 16 via an assembly 17.

[0026] The corner float 11 can be made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials to ensure the stability and durability of the device in harsh environments. The hydraulic motor 21 can be driven by one or more hydraulic pumps to provide sufficient power to move the oil recovery tray assembly 22 quickly on the water surface, thereby efficiently collecting oil. The oil recovery tray housing 15 can be designed to be removable for easy maintenance and replacement of the oil recovery tray assembly 22.

[0027] The sieve plate 25 can be made of a porous material, with the pore size selected as needed to ensure that oil can pass through smoothly while water and other impurities are effectively intercepted. The oil tank channel 24 and the oil pan 26 can be designed to facilitate oil flow and reduce oil loss during the recovery process.

[0028] The oil extraction pipe 27 can be connected to one or more oil pumps, which can be stationary or mobile, to facilitate the transport of collected oil to storage or treatment facilities.

[0029] In practical applications, high-efficiency light oil recovery devices can be deployed in waters where oil spills may occur, such as ports, docks, and tanker berthing areas. In the event of an oil spill, operators can quickly activate the hydraulic motor 21 to move the oil collection tray assembly 22 across the water surface to collect the oil. Simultaneously, the screen plate 25 begins separating the oil-water mixture, with the oil flowing through the guide trough 23 and oil tank channel 24 into the oil pan 26, and finally transported to storage or processing equipment via the extraction pipe 27. The entire recovery process is fast, efficient, and has minimal environmental impact.
