Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquatic plant management technology, specifically to an aquatic plant cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Due to severe pollution of lakes, rivers, and near-shore oceans, the presence of numerous debris in the water has exacerbated eutrophication, leading to the growth of aquatic plants such as aquatic grasses. The vigorous growth of these plants easily causes water levels to rise and water flow to slow, which not only harms water quality but also easily clogs reservoirs and channels, hindering water conservancy development.

[0003] In related technologies, a hydraulic motor drives the cutting blades to cut aquatic plants. The design of two swing plates and two cutting blades increases the area harvested in a single operation and solves the problem of poor cutting efficiency in existing river aquatic plant management and harvesting devices.

[0004] However, it can only clean the aquatic plants above the water surface, and fails to effectively clean the stems of the aquatic plants underwater. After a period of time, the aquatic plants will grow out of the water surface again, resulting in a short cleaning cycle and low cleaning efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an aquatic plant cleaning device to solve the problems of short cleaning cycle and low cleaning efficiency of existing aquatic plant cleaning methods.

[0006] The aquatic plant cleaning device includes a cutting structure and an angle adjustment structure. Specifically, the cutting structure is used to cut aquatic plants; the angle adjustment structure includes a first rotating shaft and at least one telescopic member. The first rotating shaft is mounted on the cutting structure, which rotates around the first rotating shaft. The telescopic end of any telescopic member is connected to the cutting structure, and the height of the telescopic end of any telescopic member is above or below the first rotating shaft. Furthermore, the electrical connection end of any telescopic member is electrically connected to a control terminal via a wire. The electrical connection end of any telescopic member is used to receive an adjustment signal from the control terminal and to control the extension / retraction degree of the telescopic end of the telescopic member according to the adjustment signal.

[0007] Beneficial Effects: By combining a first rotating shaft and a telescopic component, the aquatic plant cleaning device allows for adjustment of the cutting structure's angle as needed. Furthermore, by setting the height of the telescopic end of the component above or below the first rotating shaft, adjusting the telescopic end's extension / retraction allows for simultaneous adjustment of the cutting angle and height, enabling the cutting structure to cut the roots of aquatic plants more thoroughly and reducing the cutting cycle. Simultaneously, this aquatic plant cleaning device can flexibly adjust the cutting structure's posture based on the aquatic plant's growth direction, density, or obstruction conditions, thereby improving cutting efficiency and accuracy. Moreover, since the telescopic component's electrical connection is linked to a control terminal, operators can remotely send adjustment signals to precisely control the telescopic component's extension / retraction, enhancing convenience and safety in complex or inaccessible aquatic environments.

[0008] In one optional embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a dividing structure, which is disposed on the upstream side of the cutting structure along the cutting direction of the cutting structure. The dividing structure has a plurality of dividing teeth, which are spaced apart along a direction perpendicular to the cutting direction in a horizontal reference plane.

[0009] Beneficial effects: By setting the dividing structure on the upstream side of the cutting structure, its multiple dividing teeth can pre-sort and disperse the aquatic plants to be cut, reducing the cutting resistance caused by dense or tangled plants, and enabling smoother and more efficient cutting of aquatic plants, thereby improving the overall cutting efficiency.

[0010] In one optional embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a plant-supporting structure, which is disposed upstream of the cutting structure along the cutting direction of the cutting structure. The plant-supporting structure includes plant-supporting star wheels and plant-supporting elastic elements. Multiple plant-supporting star wheels are provided, and any one of them is rotatably mounted above the gap between two adjacent plant-supporting teeth. Multiple plant-supporting elastic elements are provided and grouped together. A group of plant-supporting elastic elements is arranged circumferentially around the central axis of the corresponding plant-supporting star wheel. Each plant-supporting elastic element is connected to the plant-supporting star wheel along one end of its elastic deformation, and extends along the other end of its elastic deformation in a direction away from the central axis of the plant-supporting star wheel. Under the action of an external force, the plant-supporting star wheel drives the plant-supporting elastic elements to rotate, thereby moving the aquatic plants to the cutting structure.

[0011] Beneficial Effects: By placing the plant support structure upstream of the cutting structure, and rotatably mounting the plant support star wheel above the gap between adjacent plant teeth, the posture of aquatic plants can be adjusted, such as uprighting tilted aquatic plants. Furthermore, through the synergistic action of the plant support star wheel and the elastic support element, the aquatic plants are pre-guided in an orderly manner to the cutting structure, ensuring a stable posture during cutting and thus improving cutting accuracy and consistency. Simultaneously, because the plant support star wheel is rotatable and the elastic support element has elastic deformation characteristics, the plant support structure can adapt to aquatic plants of different densities and growth stages, thereby expanding the applicability of the aquatic plant cleaning device. In addition, the combined action of the plant support star wheel and the elastic support element effectively fixes and guides the aquatic plants before cutting, reducing operational instability and safety risks caused by plant movement or swaying.

[0012] In one optional embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a collection structure, which includes a collection roller and a collection lever. The collection roller is rotatably disposed on the downstream side of the cutting structure along the cutting direction of the cutting structure. Multiple collection levers are provided, and the multiple collection levers are arranged in a circular shape around the central axis of the collection roller.

[0013] Beneficial Effects: By placing the collecting rollers downstream of the cutting structure, the rollers can collect the cut aquatic plants. The collection levers then comb and gather the plants, ensuring they are arranged and piled up for effective collection. The rotation of the rollers further entangles or piles the plants, preventing them from floating and improving collection efficiency. In other words, the collection structure centrally processes the cut aquatic plants, reducing subsequent cleaning and transportation costs. Furthermore, the synergistic effect of the collection structure with the cutting, separating, and supporting structures allows for the orderly cutting, collection, and processing of aquatic plants, reducing omissions and repetitive work during cleaning. This makes the entire cleaning process more efficient and organized, improving overall cleanliness and resulting in a cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing aquatic environment.

[0014] In one optional embodiment, the collecting structure further includes a collecting star wheel and collecting elastic elements. The collecting star wheel is disposed upstream of the collecting roller along the cutting direction of the cutting structure. Multiple collecting elastic elements are provided, with each elastic element connected to the collecting star wheel at one end of its elastic deformation, and each elastic element extending along its other end in a direction away from the central axis of the collecting star wheel. The multiple collecting elastic elements are arranged circumferentially around the central axis of the collecting star wheel. Under the action of an external force, the collecting star wheel drives the collecting elastic elements to rotate, thereby moving the cut aquatic plants to the collecting roller.

[0015] Beneficial Effects: By placing the collecting star wheel upstream of the collecting roller, its rotational motion guides and pushes the cut aquatic plants to the collecting roller, ensuring their collection after cutting. Furthermore, the multiple elastic collecting elements arranged circumferentially around the central axis of the collecting star wheel, capable of elastic deformation under external force, allow the collecting star wheel to effectively contact and push the aquatic plants using the elastic force of these elements, improving the previously poor collection efficiency. Simultaneously, the elastic deformation characteristics of the collecting elements allow the collection structure to adapt to aquatic plants of varying densities, lengths, and shapes, meeting the collection needs of aquatic plants in different aquatic environments and with different growth characteristics, thus improving the versatility and adaptability of the collection structure. In addition, the synergistic effect of the collecting star wheel and collecting roller ensures that aquatic plants are quickly and completely collected after cutting, reducing incomplete cleaning or resource waste caused by omissions or repeated cutting, contributing to improved overall cleaning efficiency and reduced cleaning costs.

[0016] In one optional embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a transport structure disposed downstream of the collecting roller along the cutting direction of the cutting structure. The transport structure includes a conveyor belt and a drive motor. The end of the conveyor belt near the collecting roller along the cutting direction of the cutting structure is the input end, and a tooth is provided at the input end. The end of the conveyor belt away from the collecting roller along the cutting direction of the cutting structure is the output end. The drive motor is used to drive the conveyor belt to move in the opposite direction to the cutting direction.

[0017] Beneficial Effects: The conveyor structure enables a continuous processing flow for the entire aquatic plant cleaning device, from cutting and collection to transportation. After cutting, the aquatic plants are collected by the collection rollers and then automatically transported to designated locations via the conveyor belt, eliminating the need for manual intervention and improving processing efficiency. Secondly, the presence of guide teeth at the end of the conveyor belt near the collection rollers effectively guides the aquatic plants from the rollers onto the conveyor belt, preventing leakage or accumulation during collection and transportation. These guide teeth also help organize the aquatic plants, ensuring they are neatly arranged on the conveyor belt for easier subsequent processing. Simultaneously, the use of a drive motor to move the conveyor belt ensures a stable speed for the aquatic plants during transportation, mitigating issues such as transport disruptions or plant scattering caused by speed variations. Furthermore, the continuous movement of the conveyor belt significantly improves the transportation efficiency of the cut aquatic plants, ensuring timely and effective processing and reducing environmental pollution and resource waste caused by delayed processing.

[0018] In one alternative embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a storage unit installed at the output end of the conveyor belt, the storage unit being used to store the cut aquatic plants.

[0019] Beneficial effects: By installing the storage unit at the output end of the conveyor belt, cut aquatic plants can be received and stored promptly. Furthermore, when the stored aquatic plants need to be processed or utilized, they can be directly retrieved from the storage unit without additional collection or sorting work, improving work efficiency. In addition, the addition of the storage unit creates a complete processing flow for the aquatic plant cleaning system, from cutting, collection, transportation to storage, enhancing the system's integrity and functionality and enabling it to better meet the needs of aquatic environment maintenance and management.

[0020] In one alternative embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a temperature riser installed inside the storage container, the temperature riser being used to dry the aquatic plants stored inside the storage container.

[0021] Beneficial effects: By incorporating a temperature-raising element within the storage unit, aquatic plants stored inside can be dried, removing excess moisture and preventing problems such as mold and rot caused by prolonged dampness. This helps maintain the original quality and nutritional value of the aquatic plants, providing a better foundation for subsequent processing and utilization. Simultaneously, after drying, the aquatic plants shrink in size and cease releasing moisture, thereby reducing the humidity of the storage space. This helps prevent bacterial growth and odors caused by excessive humidity, improving the hygiene and safety of the storage environment.

[0022] In one optional embodiment, the cutting structure includes a frame and a cutting blade. The frame is formed by a top baffle, a bottom baffle, and at least a pair of opposing side baffles, and the frame has openings at a pair of ends along the cutting direction. The cutting blade is installed in the opening at the cutting front end of the frame, and there are gaps between the cutting blade and the top baffle, the bottom baffle, and the side baffles.

[0023] Beneficial effects: By mounting the cutting blade at the opening at the cutting front of the frame, the blade can smoothly pass through aquatic plants during the cutting process. Furthermore, by leaving gaps between the cutting blade and the top, bottom, and side baffles, wear or damage caused by direct contact between the cutting blade and the frame can be avoided. Simultaneously, because the frame is designed to be enclosed by the top baffle, bottom baffle, and at least one pair of opposing side baffles, the cut aquatic plants can accumulate inside the frame, and the top baffle prevents the cut plants from spilling.

[0024] In one alternative embodiment, the cutting tip of the cutting blade is serrated.

[0025] Beneficial effects: By setting the cutting end of the cutter to a serrated arrangement, each serration can play an independent cutting role when cutting aquatic plants, increasing the surface area of ​​the cutting edge and thus increasing the cutting range. Compared with a smooth cutting end, serrated cutting can cut aquatic plants in a region more effectively and quickly. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0047] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" 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 between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0048] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 6 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0049] According to an embodiment of this utility model, an aquatic plant cleaning device is provided, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device includes a cutting structure 1 and an angle adjustment structure 2.

[0050] Specifically, the cutting structure 1 is used to cut aquatic plants; the angle adjustment structure 2 includes a first rotating shaft 21 and at least one telescopic member 22. The first rotating shaft 21 is mounted on the cutting structure 1, and the cutting structure 1 rotates around the first rotating shaft 21. The telescopic end 221 of any telescopic member 22 is connected to the cutting structure 1. The height of the telescopic end 221 of any telescopic member 22 is located above or below the first rotating shaft 21, and the electrical connection end of any telescopic member 22 is electrically connected to the control terminal through a wire. The electrical connection end of any telescopic member 22 is used to receive the adjustment signal sent by the control terminal and control the extension and retraction degree of the telescopic end 221 of the telescopic member 22 according to the adjustment signal.

[0051] With this configuration, the aquatic plant cleaning device can adjust the angle of the cutting structure 1 as needed by using the combination of the first rotating shaft 21 and the telescopic component 22. Furthermore, by setting the height of the telescopic end 221 of the telescopic component 22 above or below the first rotating shaft 21, the cutting angle and cutting height of the cutting structure 1 can be adjusted simultaneously when adjusting the telescopic end 221. This allows the cutting structure 1 to cut the roots of the aquatic plants more thoroughly and reduces the cutting cycle.

[0052] Meanwhile, the aquatic plant cleaning device of this structure can flexibly adjust the posture of the cutting structure 1 according to the growth direction, density or obstacles of the aquatic plants, thereby improving cutting efficiency and accuracy.

[0053] Furthermore, since the electrical connection of the telescopic component 22 is electrically connected to the control terminal, the operator can remotely send adjustment signals through the control terminal to achieve precise control over the extension and retraction of the telescopic component 22, thereby improving the convenience and safety of operation in complex or difficult-to-access aquatic environments.

[0054] It can be noted that in the aquatic plant cleaning device provided in this embodiment, the telescopic component 22 is preferably an electric hydraulic cylinder. In this case, the piston rod of the electric hydraulic cylinder is the telescopic end 221, the cylinder body is the fixed end 222, which is fixed on the collection boat, and the wire of the motor of the electric hydraulic cylinder is the electrical connection end, which is electrically connected to the control terminal.

[0055] Furthermore, an encoder is provided at the end of the piston rod to provide feedback on the actual position of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0056] It should be noted that the aquatic plant cleaning device provided in this embodiment does not specifically limit the number of telescopic components 22.

[0057] Preferably, there are two telescopic components 22, which are respectively positioned above and below the first rotating shaft 21 in the height direction.

[0058] With this configuration, the telescopic end 221 of at least one telescopic member 22 can also support the cutting structure 1. This prevents swaying during the cutting process when encountering significant resistance, thereby avoiding a reduction in cutting efficiency.

[0059] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device also includes a dividing structure 3, which is arranged on the upstream side of the cutting structure 1 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1. The dividing structure 3 is provided with multiple dividing teeth 31, which are spaced apart along the horizontal reference plane in a direction perpendicular to the cutting direction.

[0060] With this configuration, by placing the dividing structure 3 on the upstream side of the cutting structure 1, the multiple dividing teeth 31 provided therein can pre-sort and disperse the aquatic plants to be cut, reducing the cutting resistance caused by dense or tangled plants, and enabling smoother and more efficient cutting of aquatic plants, thereby improving the overall cutting efficiency.

[0061] It can be explained that the number, spacing, or angle of the tertiary teeth 31 can be adjusted according to the density and growth of aquatic plants in different waters in order to adapt to different environments.

[0062] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the dividing structure 3 consists of a divider body, a fixing rod, and an adjusting component.

[0063] Specifically, the divider body is constructed from thin plates and a welded support frame. It features an outwardly inclined dividing surface and an inwardly vertical guide surface. The dividing surface increases the branching interval between unharvested and unharvested crops, reducing interference; the guide surface guides the unharvested crop into the harvesting path. A fixing rod secures the divider body to the workboat, ensuring its stability during operation. Adjustable components, such as adjusting chains, are used to change the height of the divider body to adapt to different operating environments.

[0064] Since the structure of the dividing structure 3, consisting of the dividing device body, the fixing rod and the adjusting component, is common knowledge, its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0065] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device also includes a plant-supporting structure 4, which is arranged upstream of the cutting structure 1 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1. The plant-supporting structure 4 includes a plant-supporting star wheel 41 and plant-supporting elastic elements 42. Multiple plant-supporting star wheels 41 are provided, and any one plant-supporting star wheel 41 is rotatably installed above the gap between two adjacent plant-supporting teeth 31. Multiple plant-supporting elastic elements 42 are provided and arranged in groups. A group of plant-supporting elastic elements 42 are arranged in a circular shape around the central axis of the corresponding plant-supporting star wheel 41. Any plant-supporting elastic element 42 is connected to the plant-supporting star wheel 41 along one end of its elastic deformation, and any plant-supporting elastic element 42 extends along the other end of its elastic deformation in a direction away from the central axis of the plant-supporting star wheel 41. Under the action of external force, the plant-supporting star wheel 41 drives the plant-supporting elastic elements 42 to rotate and moves the aquatic plants to the cutting structure 1.

[0066] With this configuration, the supporting structure 4 is placed on the upstream side of the cutting structure 1. By rotatably installing the supporting star wheel 41 above the gap between two adjacent dividing teeth 31, the posture of the aquatic plants can be adjusted, such as supporting the tilted aquatic plants. Through the synergistic action of the supporting star wheel 41 and the supporting elastic element 42, the aquatic plants are pre-guided to the cutting structure 1 in an orderly manner, ensuring that the aquatic plants are in a stable posture during the cutting process, thereby improving the accuracy and consistency of the cutting.

[0067] Meanwhile, since the Fuhe star wheel 41 is rotatable and the Fuhe elastic element 42 has elastic deformation characteristics, the Fuhe structure 4 can adapt to aquatic plants of different densities and growth states, thereby expanding the application range of the aquatic plant cleaning device.

[0068] In addition, the combined action of the support wheel 41 and the support elastic element 42 effectively fixes and guides the aquatic plants before cutting, reducing operational instability and safety risks caused by the movement or swaying of the aquatic plants.

[0069] Preferably, the elastic element 42 is selected as an arc-shaped spring sheet.

[0070] It can be explained that a rotating shaft can be added at the central axis of the basalt wheel 41 and driven by a drive motor 62. By adjusting the number, spacing, speed, and tension of the basalt wheel 41 and the elastic element 42, the device can adapt to different types, densities, and growth characteristics of aquatic plants, ensuring that the cleaning device can perform optimally in various environments.

[0071] It can be noted that when the Fuhe Star Wheel 41 is not effective in adjusting the posture of aquatic plants, a clamping frame is added to clamp the tilted aquatic plants and ensure that they are in an upright position.

[0072] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device also includes a collection structure 5, which includes a collection roller 51 and a collection lever 52. The collection roller 51 is rotatably disposed on the downstream side of the cutting structure 1 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1. There are multiple collection levers 52, which are arranged in a circular shape around the central axis of the collection roller 51.

[0073] This configuration, by placing the collecting roller 51 downstream of the cutting structure 1, allows the collecting roller 51 to collect the cut aquatic plants. The collecting lever 52 then combs and gathers the aquatic plants, ensuring they are arranged and piled up during collection for effective collection. Furthermore, the rotation of the collecting roller 51 causes the aquatic plants to be coiled or piled on the roller, preventing them from floating in the water and thus improving collection efficiency. In short, the collecting structure 5 centrally processes the cut aquatic plants, reducing the costs associated with subsequent cleaning and transportation.

[0074] Meanwhile, the synergistic effect of the collection structure 5 with the cutting structure 1, the dividing structure 3, and the supporting structure 4 can orderly cut, collect, and process aquatic plants, reducing omissions and repetitive labor in the cleaning process, making the entire cleaning process more efficient and orderly, improving the overall cleaning effect, and making the aquatic environment cleaner and more beautiful.

[0075] It can be explained that when multiple collection levers 52 are provided, the multiple collection levers 52 are not only arranged in a circular shape around the central axis, but each of them also points to the outer edge of the roller, so that they can effectively contact and hold the cut aquatic plants when the roller rotates.

[0076] Meanwhile, by adjusting parameters such as the rotation speed of the collecting roller 51, the number and arrangement of the collecting levers 52, the collection needs can be adapted to different aquatic environments and the growth characteristics of aquatic plants.

[0077] In addition, the collection lever 52 is made of a material with good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, such as stainless steel, to deal with the wear and corrosion problems that may be caused by long-term contact with aquatic plants.

[0078] To further improve the service life and performance of the collection lever 52, the surface of the lever is specially treated, such as by spraying a wear-resistant coating or by hardening treatment.

[0079] It can be explained that, in order to improve the degree of automation, a second rotating shaft 55 is installed at the central axis of the collecting roller 51, and another drive motor 62 is used to drive the collecting roller 51 to rotate. At this time, the control terminal is electrically connected to the electrical connection terminal of the drive motor 62 to control the rotation speed of the collecting roller 51 in real time.

[0080] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the collecting structure 5 also includes a collecting star wheel 53 and a collecting elastic element 54. The collecting star wheel 53 is arranged on the upstream side of the collecting roller 51 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1. There are multiple collecting elastic elements 54. Each collecting elastic element 54 is connected to the collecting star wheel 53 along one end of its elastic deformation, and the other end of each collecting elastic element 54 extends in a direction away from the central axis of the collecting star wheel 53. The multiple collecting elastic elements 54 are arranged in a circular shape around the central axis of the collecting star wheel 53. Under the action of external force, the collecting star wheel 53 drives the collecting elastic elements 54 to rotate and moves the cut aquatic plants to the collecting roller 51.

[0081] This configuration, by placing the collecting star wheel 53 upstream of the collecting roller 51, allows the centrifugal force generated by its rotation to guide and push the cut aquatic plants to the collecting roller 51, ensuring that the aquatic plants can be collected after being cut. Furthermore, by arranging multiple collecting elastic elements 54 in a circular pattern around the central axis of the collecting star wheel 53, and enabling them to undergo elastic deformation under external force, the collecting star wheel 53 can effectively contact and push the aquatic plants using the elastic force of the collecting elastic elements 54 when rotating, thus improving the problem of poor collection effect during the aquatic plant collection process.

[0082] Meanwhile, because the elastic element 54 has elastic deformation characteristics, the collection structure 5 can adapt to aquatic plants of different densities, lengths and shapes, meet the collection needs of aquatic plants with different water environments and growth characteristics, and improve the versatility and adaptability of the collection structure 5.

[0083] In addition, the synergistic effect of the collecting star wheel 53 and the collecting roller 51 ensures that aquatic plants can be collected quickly and completely after cutting, reducing the problem of incomplete cleaning or waste of resources caused by omissions or repeated cutting, which helps to improve the overall cleaning efficiency and reduce cleaning costs.

[0084] Preferably, the elastic element 54 is selected as an arc-shaped spring sheet.

[0085] It should be noted that the elastic element 54 can also be used to adjust the tightness between the collecting star wheels 53 to prevent the cut aquatic plants from falling off.

[0086] In one embodiment, it is still as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device also includes a transport structure 6, which is arranged downstream of the collecting roller 51 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1. The transport structure 6 includes a conveyor belt 61 and a drive motor 62. The end of the conveyor belt 61 near the collecting roller 51 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1 is the input end, and a tooth is provided at the input end. The end of the conveyor belt 61 away from the collecting roller 51 along the cutting direction of the cutting structure 1 is the output end. The drive motor 62 is used to drive the conveyor belt 61 to move in the opposite direction to the cutting direction.

[0087] This configuration, with the addition of the transport structure 6, enables the entire aquatic plant cleaning device to form a continuous processing flow from cutting and collection to transportation. That is, after being cut, the aquatic plants are collected by the collection rollers 51, and then automatically transported to the designated location via the conveyor belt 61 of the transport structure 6, without the need for manual intervention, thus improving processing efficiency.

[0088] Secondly, by providing teeth at the end of the conveyor belt 61 near the collecting roller 51, the aquatic plants on the collecting roller 51 can be effectively transferred to the conveyor belt 61, avoiding the omission or accumulation of aquatic plants during collection and transportation. In addition, the teeth can also help to organize the aquatic plants, making them more neatly arranged on the conveyor belt 61, which is convenient for subsequent processing.

[0089] Meanwhile, by using the drive motor 62 to move the conveyor belt 61, it is ensured that the aquatic plants can maintain a stable moving speed during transportation, thus improving the problem of poor transportation or scattering of aquatic plants caused by speed changes.

[0090] In addition, the continuous movement of the conveyor belt 61 can significantly improve the transportation efficiency of the cut aquatic plants, ensuring that the aquatic plants can be processed in a timely and effective manner, and improving the environmental pollution or resource waste caused by untimely processing.

[0091] In one embodiment, it is still as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device also includes a storage unit 7, which is installed at the output end of the conveyor belt 61 and is used to store the cut aquatic plants.

[0092] With this configuration, by installing the storage unit 7 at the output end of the conveyor belt 61, the cut aquatic plants can be received and stored in a timely manner.

[0093] Meanwhile, when it is necessary to process or utilize the stored aquatic plants, they can be taken directly from the storage container 7 without the need for cutting, crushing, or other work, thus improving work efficiency.

[0094] In addition, by adding storage component 7, the entire aquatic plant cleaning device forms a complete processing flow from cutting, collecting, transporting to storage, which enhances the integrity and functionality of the cleaning device and enables it to better meet the needs of aquatic environment maintenance and management.

[0095] It can be noted that the top of the storage unit 7 is provided with an opening to facilitate the falling of cut aquatic plants into the storage unit 7, and a cover or door is provided at the opening for easy opening or closing, so that operators can easily and safely store and retrieve aquatic plants.

[0096] In one embodiment, it is still as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the aquatic plant cleaning device also includes a temperature riser 8, which is installed inside the storage unit 7 and is used to dry the aquatic plants stored inside the storage unit 7.

[0097] With this configuration, the aquatic plants stored in the storage unit 7 can be dried by the heating element 8 inside the storage unit 7, removing excess moisture and preventing problems such as mold and rot caused by prolonged dampness. This helps maintain the original quality and nutritional value of the aquatic plants, providing a better foundation for subsequent processing and utilization.

[0098] Meanwhile, after being dried, aquatic plants will have a relatively smaller volume and will no longer release water, thereby reducing the humidity of the storage space. This helps prevent problems such as bacterial growth and odor caused by excessive humidity, thus improving the hygiene and safety of the storage space.

[0099] It can be noted that the temperature riser 8 is preferably a resistance wire or a heating tube.

[0100] In one embodiment, the cutting structure 1 includes a frame 11 and a cutting blade 12. The frame 11 is formed by a top baffle 111, a bottom baffle, and at least a pair of opposing side baffles 112. The frame 11 has openings at a pair of ends along the cutting direction. The cutting blade 12 is installed in the opening at the cutting front end of the frame 11, and there are gaps between the cutting blade 12 and the top baffle 111, the bottom baffle, and the side baffles 112.

[0101] This configuration ensures that the cutting blade 12 can pass smoothly through aquatic plants during the cutting process by installing it at the opening at the cutting front end of the frame 11. Furthermore, by leaving gaps between the cutting blade 12 and the top baffle 111, bottom baffle, and side baffle 112, wear or damage caused by direct contact between the cutting blade 12 and the frame 11 can be avoided.

[0102] Meanwhile, since the frame 11 is configured to be enclosed by a top baffle 111, a bottom baffle, and at least a pair of opposing side baffles 112, the cut aquatic plants can be piled up inside the frame 11, and the top baffle 111 prevents the cut aquatic plants from spilling.

[0103] In one embodiment, the cutting tip of the cutting blade 12 is arranged in a serrated pattern.

[0104] This configuration, by setting the cutting end of the cutting blade 12 to a serrated arrangement, allows each serration to play an independent cutting role when cutting aquatic plants, increasing the surface area of ​​the cutting edge and thus increasing the cutting range. Compared with a smooth cutting end, serrated cutting can cut aquatic plants in a region more effectively and quickly.

[0105] In one embodiment, the aquatic plant cleaning device further includes a detection element 9, such as a distance sensor or a laser sensor, which detects the posture of the cutting structure 1, such as the cutting angle and cutting height.

[0106] Of course, the detection component 9 can also be equipped with an environmental sensing sensor to identify the location of aquatic plants.

[0107] It can be explained that the cutting direction is Figure 1 As shown in the middle K direction.

[0108] It can be noted that the aquatic plant cleaning device is installed at the bow of the ship. The cutting process is as follows: the entire ship moves forward along the cutting direction, the separating teeth 31 of the separating structure 3 separate the aquatic plants, and the supporting star wheel 41 and supporting elastic element 42 of the supporting structure 4 lift up the fallen aquatic plants and guide them to the cutting blade 12. After the aquatic plants are cut, they are collected by the collecting star wheel 53, collecting elastic element 54, collecting lever 52 and collecting roller 51, and fed into the input end of the conveyor belt 61 by the lever. Under the action of the drive motor 62 in the transport structure 6, the cut aquatic plants are transported to the storage container 7, where they are then dried, cut and crushed.

[0109] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
