Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of waste transfer platforms, and in particular to a waste transfer platform for use in fishing port operation areas. Background Technology

[0002] Fishing port operation areas are the main locations for fishing vessels to dock, unload catches, and distribute fishing supplies. During these operations, a large amount of mixed waste is generated, including fish scraps, discarded fishing gear, packaging materials, and domestic waste. This waste is characterized by its large volume, high water content, and tendency to decompose and emit foul odors. If it is not transferred in a timely and efficient manner, it will not only affect the working environment of the fishing port but also cause marine water pollution and the breeding of pathogens. Current methods of waste transfer in fishing ports mostly rely on manual labor or simple mechanical equipment to move garbage bins from the ship's hold to the shore, where they are then transported by vehicles to centralized processing points. This method is labor-intensive, inefficient, and, in port operations with significant tidal variations, the height difference between the ship's deck and the shore platform changes frequently, making it difficult for traditional equipment to adapt.

[0003] Most existing waste transfer platforms are fixed-height structures or only equipped with simple dumping devices, lacking the lifting and conveying capabilities to be flexibly adjusted according to the ship's draft or the location of connecting vehicles. In the unique high-salt-fog and high-humidity environment of fishing ports, ordinary lifting or conveying devices are prone to corrosion and jamming, leading to shortened equipment lifespan and increased maintenance costs. Furthermore, the transfer of waste between different heights often requires multiple moves and transfers, increasing the risk of waste leakage and secondary pollution, and hindering the standardization and environmental management of fishing port cleaning operations.

[0004] Therefore, fishing port operation areas urgently need an automated lifting and conveying platform with a robust structure, good corrosion resistance, and the ability to precisely dock both above and below the platform surface. This platform would enable efficient and seamless transfer of garbage bins or containers from the hatches of fishing boats to the shore platform and then to the transfer vehicles. The platform should be able to adapt to different heights, reduce manual handling, and lower the risk of garbage leakage, while also meeting the requirements for long-term stable operation in the fishing port environment, thereby improving the efficiency and environmental protection level of garbage transfer in fishing ports.

[0005] In view of this, the inventor has designed a waste transfer platform for fishing port operation areas, which leads to this invention. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a garbage transfer platform for fishing port operation areas, which at least solves the problems of low transfer efficiency of garbage at different heights in fishing port operation areas, reliance on manual handling, and lack of automated lifting and conveying devices adapted to the special environment of fishing ports.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] This application provides a waste transfer platform for a fishing port operation area, characterized by comprising: a support platform fixed to the fishing port embankment or wharf, the support platform having a working surface for personnel operation and placement of waste containers; a lifting and conveying device disposed on one side of the support platform, the lifting and conveying device comprising: a support pallet for placing waste bins or waste containers; a lifting guide structure for guiding the support pallet to move vertically; a drive assembly including a lead screw connected to the lifting guide structure and a servo motor for driving the lead screw to rotate, for driving the support pallet to move between positions above and below the working surface of the support platform; and a control system electrically connected to the servo motor for controlling the support pallet to stop at a preset position. The lifting and conveying device is fixedly connected to the support platform and forms stable support with the embankment through a support structure.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the lifting guide structure includes vertical guide rails arranged parallel to both sides of the support tray, and a slider group connected to both ends of the support tray and sliding along the guide rails.

[0010] In a further embodiment, the lower end of the lead screw is provided with an anti-fall locking mechanism, which can prevent the load-bearing tray from sliding down when the drive component fails or the lead screw breaks.

[0011] In a further embodiment, the upper surface of the carrying tray is provided with an adjustable positioning block and a locking claw that cooperates with the handle of the garbage container to fix the garbage container during lifting and lowering.

[0012] In a further embodiment, the load-bearing platform consists of column piles, peripheral main beams, and transverse secondary beams.

[0013] In a further embodiment, a grid-type platform panel is detachably fixed to the secondary beam; a fence assembly is provided around the perimeter of the load-bearing platform.

[0014] In a further embodiment, the outer surfaces of the bearing platform and the lifting and conveying device are provided with a layer of metal material resistant to seawater corrosion or an anti-corrosion coating with a C5-M anti-corrosion rating.

[0015] In a further embodiment, the control system includes an operation panel located inside the guardrail of the carrying platform, the operation panel being equipped with a lifting button, an emergency stop button, and a position selection switch.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0017] Compared with existing garbage transfer methods in fishing port operations, this utility model, by installing a lifting and conveying device driven by a screw and servo motor on one side of a carrying platform fixed to the fishing port embankment or wharf, allows the carrying pallet to move smoothly between positions above or below the platform's working surface and stop precisely at a preset position. This solves at least the problems of low efficiency, high labor intensity, and difficulty in loading and unloading garbage containers in tidal environments associated with existing manual handling. Combined with a lifting and guiding structure with parallel vertical guide rails and slider groups, an anti-fall locking mechanism, and adjustable positioning blocks and locking claws, it not only improves operational stability and safety but also effectively secures garbage containers during lifting, preventing tipping and slippage. The carrying platform adopts a modular beam-column structure and detachable panels, with an outer surface covered by a seawater corrosion-resistant layer or a high-corrosion-resistant coating, significantly improving durability and maintenance convenience in marine environments. Simultaneously, the user-friendly design of the control system makes operation simple, safe, and reliable, thus improving the overall efficiency and safety level of garbage transfer operations in fishing ports.

[0030] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses a garbage transfer platform for fishing port operation areas, which includes a support platform 1 fixedly installed on the fishing port embankment or wharf, and a lifting and conveying device 2 installed on one side of the support platform 1. The support platform 1 provides space for operators to stand and work, and serves as a transfer position for temporary placement of garbage containers; the lifting and conveying device 2 is used to smoothly transfer garbage containers between different heights to accommodate the height differences between fishing boat decks, wharf platforms, and land-based garbage transfer vehicles.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the supporting platform 1 adopts a steel structure, with several column piles 11 serving as vertical supports. The column piles 11 are fixed to the foundation of the bank wall through embedded parts or flange connections. The top is welded with a peripheral main beam 12, and multiple secondary beams 13 are arranged transversely on the inner side of the main beams 12 to enhance the platform's load-bearing capacity. The platform panel 4 is preferably a grid structure and is detachably fixed to the secondary beams 13 with bolts, which facilitates water seepage and slip prevention, and also makes it easy to inspect and replace later. A fence assembly 5 is set around the perimeter of the platform. The fence is of moderate height and a loading and unloading port is left on the side near the lifting and conveying device 2. A movable door panel can be installed at the loading and unloading port to improve operational safety.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the lifting and conveying device 2 is fixed on the main beam 12 or a special mounting bracket on one side of the carrying platform 1. Its core components are the carrying pallet 21, the lifting guide structure 22, and the drive assembly 23. The carrying pallet 21 has a rectangular frame structure with anti-slip plates or roller tracks at the bottom for easy placement of garbage cans or bins of different sizes. The upper surface of the pallet is equipped with adjustable positioning blocks 8 and locking claws 9 that cooperate with the handles of garbage containers. The positioning blocks 8 can slide and adjust along the width of the pallet to accommodate containers of different widths. The locking claws 9 are kept locked by a spring reset mechanism and can cooperate with a limit switch to prevent lifting and lowering when the container is not locked, thereby preventing the container from tipping over or slipping during operation. It also forms a stable support with the bank through the support structure 6.

[0034] like Figures 3 to 6 The lifting guide structure 22 includes vertical guide rails 221 arranged parallel to both sides of the pallet. Each guide rail 221 is equipped with a slider assembly 222 connected to both ends of the pallet. The slider assembly 222 slides smoothly on the guide rail 221, thereby ensuring the stability and resistance to lateral forces during the lifting process of the pallet. The drive assembly 23 consists of a lead screw 231 and a servo motor 232. The lead screw 231 is fixedly connected to the pallet through a nut seat. The servo motor 232 drives the lead screw 231 to rotate through a reducer and a coupling. The threaded engagement between the lead screw 231 and the nut seat realizes the lifting of the pallet. To prevent the pallet from sliding due to drive failure or breakage of the lead screw 231, the lower end of the lead screw 231 is equipped with a fall arrest mechanism 7. This mechanism automatically locks the pallet or blocks the descent path in abnormal situations, thereby ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the control system 3 includes an operation panel 31 installed inside the guardrail of the carrying platform 1. The operation panel 31 is equipped with a lifting button 32, an emergency stop button 33, and a position selection switch 34. The position selection switch 34 can preset multiple different height positions, allowing the pallet to quickly and accurately stop at the height of the fishing boat deck, the platform, or the garbage truck's feeding port. The control system 3 is connected to limit sensors. The limit devices include an upper limit switch, a lower limit switch, and a mechanical limit stop to prevent the pallet from running out of its designated position and causing damage.

[0036] In terms of protection and durability, the outer surfaces of the carrying platform 1 and the lifting and conveying device 2 are both coated with a metal material layer resistant to seawater corrosion, or with an epoxy zinc-rich primer and polyurethane topcoat anti-corrosion coating with a C5-M anti-corrosion rating, thus ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment in the high salt spray and high humidity environment of the fishing port. To prevent leachate from polluting the platform and the surrounding environment during operation, a collection tray can be installed under the pallet, which is connected to a collection tank equipped with an activated carbon filter and a discharge valve through a pipe for centralized collection and treatment of leachate.

[0037] During operation, workers can place containers filled with garbage on the pallet, secure them using positioning blocks 8 and locking claws 9, select the target height on the control panel 31, and activate the lifting device. The servo motor 232 drives the lead screw 231 to rotate, and the pallet smoothly rises and falls along the guide rail 221 to the designated position, level with the deck of the fishing boat or the loading port of a vehicle, ready for garbage transfer. After the operation is completed, the pallet can return to the platform height for the next use. This platform not only reduces the number of manual handling operations and the intensity of handling, but also improves operational efficiency and safety, making it particularly suitable for fishing port environments with large tidal ranges.

[0038] Through the above structural design, this utility model realizes the rapid and safe transfer of garbage containers in fishing ports at different heights, reduces the intensity of manual labor, reduces the risk of garbage spillage and secondary pollution, and at the same time improves the durability and adaptability of the equipment, meeting the needs of fishing port operation areas for efficient and environmentally friendly garbage transfer equipment.

[0039] The present invention has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
