Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of pumping equipment, specifically relating to a floating water pump used in waterway dredging projects. Background Technology
[0002] During the construction of waterway dredging projects, areas such as foundation pits and cofferdams require significant water pumping during the flood season. Given the inconvenience of grid power connections, the use of traditional fuels (diesel) to drive water pumps is prioritized. However, diesel-powered water pumps are difficult to move during the flood season and pose a risk of being submerged, potentially causing equipment damage. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model discloses a floating water pump for waterway dredging projects. In situations of rising water levels or heavy rainfall during the rainy season, the buoyancy of the pontoon is used to float the diesel engine and water pump on the water surface, reducing the risk of flooding and ensuring flexible and efficient pumping and drainage operations under complex environmental conditions.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A floating water pump for waterway dredging projects includes a diesel engine body, a pump body, and a pontoon body. The pontoon body is assembled from several plastic pontoons. A steel frame is provided around the pontoon body, and a slide rail is provided above the steel frame. The diesel engine body and the pump body are fixed on the same base, which is set on the slide rail. The diesel engine body and the pump body are connected and driven by a V-belt.
[0006] As an improvement of this utility model, the pontoon body is assembled from 4*4 plastic pontoons.
[0007] As an improvement of this utility model, the steel frame is made of angle iron and square tube welded together.
[0008] As an improvement of this utility model, two lifting lugs are provided on each of the two sides of the steel frame.
[0009] As an improvement of this utility model, the base and the slide are fixed by bolts.
[0010] As an improvement of this utility model, the pump body is provided with an inlet and an outlet.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] (1) In the event of rising water levels or heavy rainfall during the rainy season, the buoyancy of the floating box is used to float the diesel engine and water pump on the water surface, reducing the risk of being flooded. This ensures that pumping and drainage can be carried out flexibly and efficiently under complex environmental conditions.
[0013] (2) The diesel engine and water pump can move left and right, and forward and backward along the slide rail to adjust the balance and ensure the stability of the overall structure's center of gravity.
[0014] (3) The device has a wide range of applications and can be used normally on land and water. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0019] As shown in the figure, the floating water pump for waterway dredging projects according to this utility model includes a diesel engine body 1, a pump body 2, and a pontoon body 3. The diesel engine body 1 and the pump body 2 are connected and driven by a V-belt 5. The pontoon body 3 is assembled from (4*4) plastic pontoons 8, and the outer steel frame 7 is welded from angle iron and square tubing. The diesel engine body 1 and the pump body 2 are fixed on the same base 10. The water pumping pipe is flexible and rests directly on the assembled pontoons 8. The base 10 is set on the slide rail 11 formed by the upper steel frame. Two lifting lugs 4 are set on each side edge of the steel frame 7 for easy lifting. The diesel engine body 1 and the pump body 2 are fixed on the base 10 and can move left and right and back and forth. The base 10 and the slide rail 11 are fixed with bolts to adjust the balance and ensure the stability of the overall structure's center of gravity.
[0020] This device uses a diesel engine to drive a water pump, allowing it to operate normally both on land and water. Waterway dredging projects involve large volumes of water, posing a high risk of flooding to cofferdams and foundation pits. During periods of high water levels or heavy rainfall, the buoyancy of the floating boxes keeps the diesel engine and water pump afloat, reducing the risk of flooding. This ensures flexible and efficient pumping and drainage operations even in complex environments.
[0021] It should be noted that the above content merely illustrates the technical concept of this utility model and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and all such improvements and modifications fall within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
