Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of highway maintenance devices, specifically to a median strip garbage collection device for highways. Background Technology

[0002] As an important infrastructure of modern transportation, highways have a large volume of traffic and high speeds. The central median strip of highways plays an important role in separating opposing traffic flows and preventing glare. However, due to the indiscriminate littering by some drivers and passengers, the median strip is often filled with various kinds of garbage such as plastic bottles, tissues, and packaging bags.

[0003] Currently, the cleaning of garbage in the median strip of highways mainly relies on manual labor. This manual cleaning method is inefficient and extremely dangerous, as workers need to enter the median strip to work in a high-speed driving environment, which can easily cause traffic accidents.

[0004] Utility model patent CN217298742U discloses a highway construction and maintenance device. The device includes a carriage; a support plate fixedly mounted on one outer wall of the carriage; a first hydraulic cylinder fixedly mounted on one outer wall of the carriage, with its output shaft extending below the support plate; a collection box fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the first hydraulic cylinder; a mounting block fixedly mounted on one outer wall of the carriage; and a sliding groove formed at the bottom of the mounting block. This utility model provides a highway construction and maintenance device that can efficiently clean, pick up, and collect garbage on highway surfaces. The cleaning tools are easy to disassemble and replace, and the overall device is easy to store without affecting normal driving.

[0005] While this technical solution offers advantages such as cleaning, picking up, and collecting garbage, most current median strip garbage collection devices rely on sweeping. Sweeping methods are inherently complex, increasing costs. Furthermore, the brushes are prone to damage during sweeping, requiring replacement and resulting in losses. Finally, using too many brushes is hampered by the width of the median strip and obstructions, further impacting the garbage collection efficiency. Therefore, we propose a median strip garbage collection device for highways. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a median strip garbage collection device for highways, in order to solve the defects mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A median strip garbage collection device for highways includes a frame beam plate fixedly mounted on an external maintenance vehicle. Two symmetrical first hydraulic cylinders are fixedly mounted on the frame beam plate.

A support plate is detachably mounted at the ends of the telescopic shafts of the second hydraulic cylinders. A fan is fixedly mounted on the support plate. A blower pipe is fixedly mounted at the outlet of the fan. A mesh collection box is located at the bottom of the horizontal beam. A vertical rod is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the horizontal beam. The top of the mesh collection box is hinged to the vertical rod. A third hydraulic cylinder for adjusting the tilt angle of the mesh collection box is also hinged between the horizontal beam and the mesh collection box. The blower pipe faces the side of the mesh collection box.

[0009] Preferably, a steel plate is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic shaft of the first hydraulic cylinder, and the horizontal beam is detachably installed on the bottom surface of the steel plate by a plurality of fastening bolts.

[0010] Preferably, the mesh collection box has a mesh-shaped box structure, and the end of the mesh collection box near the blower pipe is connected to the outside.

[0011] This design facilitates the blowing of waste into the mesh collection bin for collection, while allowing air to escape normally from the mesh collection bin.

[0012] Preferably, the base of the third hydraulic cylinder is hinged to the bottom surface of the horizontal beam, and the end of the telescopic shaft of the third hydraulic cylinder is hinged to the top surface of the mesh collection box.

[0014] Preferably, a sliding sleeve is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the fixed base, and the sliding sleeve is fitted onto the horizontal beam and slidably connected to the horizontal beam.

[0015] Preferably, a bolt plate is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder, and the fixed seat is detachably connected to the bolt plate by a plurality of fastening bolts.

[0016] Preferably, two symmetrically flared diversion plates are fixedly installed at the opening of the mesh collection box near the blower pipe, and an inner baffle is fixedly installed on the top wall of the opening of the mesh collection box. The inner baffle is used to prevent garbage entering the mesh collection box from being blown out.

[0017] This feature allows the flared deflector to guide the waste into the mesh collection bin by the wind.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] 1. This utility model achieves a stable connection between the garbage collection device and the maintenance vehicle by setting a frame crossbeam plate fixedly installed on the external maintenance vehicle, as well as multiple hydraulic cylinders, horizontal beams, support plates and other structures that cooperate with it. Moreover, the position and angle of the device can be flexibly adjusted by the hydraulic cylinders, so as to adapt to the median strip of highways with different widths and terrains, avoid collisions between the device and the green vegetation and obstacles in the median strip, and improve the applicability and operational safety of the device.

[0020] 2. This utility model, by setting up a fan, air blowing pipe, and mesh collection box, uses the air force generated by the fan to blow garbage into the mesh collection box, realizing a garbage collection method that abandons the traditional complex sweeping transmission structure. This achieves the purpose of reducing costs and avoiding losses caused by frequent replacement of easily damaged brushes. At the same time, it is not affected by the width of the middle strip and obstructions, effectively improving the garbage cleaning effect.

[0021] 3. This utility model, by setting an flared guide plate and an inner baffle in the mesh collection box, and designing a hinge and a third hydraulic cylinder adjustment structure between the mesh collection box and the horizontal beam, achieves the goal of guiding garbage smoothly into the collection box and preventing garbage from being blown out. It also allows for flexible adjustment of the tilt angle of the collection box to facilitate garbage dumping, thereby improving the efficiency and convenience of garbage collection and ensuring the smooth progress of the collection process.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a median strip garbage collection device for highways, including a frame crossbeam 1 fixedly installed on an external maintenance vehicle. Two symmetrical first hydraulic cylinders 10 are fixedly installed on the frame crossbeam 1, so that the garbage collection device is stably connected to the maintenance vehicle. The first hydraulic cylinders 10 can flexibly adjust the height of the horizontal beam 2, which is convenient for adjustment as needed during operation, thus improving the applicability and operational flexibility of the device.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, horizontal beams 2 are detachably installed at the ends of the telescopic shafts of the two first hydraulic cylinders 10. Steel plates 11 are fixedly installed at the ends of the telescopic shafts of the first hydraulic cylinders 10. The horizontal beams 2 are detachably installed on the bottom surface of the steel plates 11 by multiple fastening bolts, so that the connection between the horizontal beams 2 and the first hydraulic cylinders 10 is stable and reliable. At the same time, it is convenient to disassemble and maintain, reduces the maintenance difficulty of the device, and extends its service life.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a second hydraulic cylinder 20 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the horizontal beam 2. A support plate 23 is detachably installed at the end of the telescopic shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder 20. A fan 24 is fixedly installed on the support plate 23. A blower pipe 241 is fixedly installed at the air outlet of the fan 24. A mesh collection box 26 is set at the bottom of the horizontal beam 2. The blower pipe 241 faces the side of the mesh collection box 26. The mesh collection box 26 has a mesh-shaped box structure. The end of the mesh collection box 26 near the blower pipe 241 is connected to the outside, so that the air force blown by the fan 24 can smoothly blow the garbage into the mesh collection box 26. At the same time, air can be discharged from the mesh, avoiding excessive air pressure in the box from affecting garbage collection, and ensuring the smooth and efficient garbage collection process.

[0033] like Figure 2As shown, a vertical rod 25 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the horizontal beam 2. The top of the mesh collection box 26 is hinged to the vertical rod 25. A third hydraulic cylinder 27 for adjusting the tilt angle of the mesh collection box 26 is also hinged between the horizontal beam 2 and the mesh collection box 26. The base of the third hydraulic cylinder 27 is hinged to the bottom surface of the horizontal beam 2, and the end of the telescopic shaft of the third hydraulic cylinder 27 is hinged to the top surface of the mesh collection box 26. The tilt angle of the mesh collection box 26 can be flexibly adjusted by controlling the extension and retraction of the third hydraulic cylinder 27, which facilitates garbage dumping and improves the convenience and efficiency of garbage cleaning.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, a fixed seat 21 is detachably installed at the end of the telescopic shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder 20. The support plate 23 is fixedly installed on the side of the fixed seat 21. A bolt plate 201 is fixedly installed at the end of the telescopic shaft of the second hydraulic cylinder 20. The fixed seat 21 is detachably connected to the bolt plate 201 by multiple fastening bolts, which makes the installation and disassembly of the support plate 23 and components such as the fan 24 installed on it more convenient, which is conducive to the maintenance and replacement of related components and ensures the normal operation of the device.

[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a sliding sleeve 22 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the fixed base 21. The sliding sleeve 22 is fitted on the horizontal beam 2 and slidably connected to the horizontal beam 2, so that the fixed base 21 and the support plate 23 and other components can slide smoothly along the horizontal beam 2 under the drive of the second hydraulic cylinder 20, which enhances the stability of the device during operation. At the same time, the position of the fan 24 can be finely adjusted to optimize the garbage picking effect.

[0036] It is worth noting that two symmetrically flared guide plates 29 are fixedly installed at the opening of the mesh collection box 26 near the blower pipe 241. An inner baffle 28 is fixedly installed on the top wall of the opening of the mesh collection box 26. The inner baffle 28 is used to prevent the garbage entering the mesh collection box 26 from being blown out. The flared guide plates 29 can effectively guide the wind to blow the garbage into the mesh collection box 26, while the inner baffle 28 prevents the collected garbage from being blown out. The combination of the two significantly improves the success rate and efficiency of garbage collection, ensuring that the garbage can be effectively collected and stored.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the components involved in this utility model, such as the first hydraulic cylinder 10, the second hydraulic cylinder 20, the third hydraulic cylinder 27, and the fan 24, are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structures and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. In the idle space of this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components, which refer to power elements, electrical components, and the matching controller and power supply, are connected by wires. The specific connection methods should refer to the working principle of this utility model. The electrical connections between each electrical component are completed in the order of operation. The detailed connection methods are all technologies known in the art.

[0038] When using the median strip garbage collection device of this utility model, the crossbeam plate 1 of the vehicle frame is first fixedly installed on the external maintenance vehicle. After the vehicle drives to the work area, the air blower 241 and the mesh collection box 26 are respectively located on both sides of the median strip. By adjusting the first hydraulic cylinder 10, the height of the horizontal beam 2 is adjusted according to the actual situation of the median strip so that the bottom end of the air blower 241 and the mesh collection box 26 are both located close to the ground.

[0039] During operation, the blower 24 is started, and the air generated is blown out through the blower pipe 241. The second hydraulic cylinder 20 drives the fixed base 21, the support plate 23 and the blower 24 to slide along the horizontal beam 2. At the same time, the sliding sleeve 22 ensures smooth sliding. The position of the blower pipe 241 is adjusted. Since the blower pipe 241 blows air towards the mesh collection box 26, the air force blows the garbage towards the mesh collection box 26. Under the guidance of the flared diversion plate 29, the garbage smoothly enters the box. The inner baffle 28 prevents the garbage from being blown out.

[0040] When the mesh collection box 26 is full of garbage, the third hydraulic cylinder 27 is operated, and its telescopic shaft changes the tilt angle of the mesh collection box 26 so that its opening faces downward, dumping the garbage to the designated location.

[0041] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
