[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a port channel dredging and clearing device, which is used to connect with the sludge suction pump on the dredging vessel to suck up the accumulated silt in the channel in order to clear the channel.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The port channel dredging and clearing device includes a dredging pipe 1, on which a rotatable first rotating shaft 2 and a first motor 11 connected to the first rotating shaft 2 are mounted. The first rotating shaft 2 has a spiral blade 21 and a first cutter 22 at one end, positioned near the opening of the dredging pipe 1. When the first rotating shaft 2 rotates under the drive of the first motor 11, it drives the spiral blade 21 and the first cutter 22 to rotate, and the spiral blade 21, when rotating, transports the silt entering the dredging pipe 1 along the axial direction of the dredging pipe 1. A rotatable second rotating shaft 3 is fitted inside the first rotating shaft 2. A second motor 12 connected to the second rotating shaft 3 is mounted on the dredging pipe 1, and the direction in which the second motor 12 drives the second rotating shaft 3 to rotate is the same as the direction in which the first motor 11 drives the first rotating shaft 3. The first rotating shaft 2 rotates in the opposite direction. One end of the second rotating shaft 3 extends out of the dredging pipe 1, and a stirring paddle 31 is provided at the end of the second rotating shaft 3 extending out of the dredging pipe 1. A second cutter 32 is also sleeved on the second rotating shaft 3. The second cutter 32 is located on the side of the first cutter 22 away from the spiral blade 21. When the second rotating shaft 3 rotates under the drive of the second motor 12, it drives the stirring paddle 31 and the second cutter 32 to rotate. After the stirring paddle 31 extends into the silt accumulated in the channel, it stirs the silt with the rotation of the second rotating shaft 3 to turn up the silt accumulated in the channel and let the silt enter the dredging pipe 1. When the silt enters the dredging pipe 1, the first cutter 22 and the second cutter 32, which rotate in opposite directions, stir the debris in the silt and break the debris to prevent the debris from clogging the dredging pipe 1 during the transportation process.
[0024] Specifically, the working process of the port channel dredging and clearing device provided in this embodiment is as follows: the dredging vessel moves the port channel dredging and clearing device to the location on the channel that needs dredging and moves the dredging pipe 1 to insert the stirring paddle 31 into the silt. The suction pump, the first motor 11 and the second motor 12 are started respectively. At this time, the first rotating shaft 2 and the second rotating shaft 3, which are sleeved together, rotate in opposite directions. The rotation of the second rotating shaft 3 drives the stirring paddle 31 to stir the silt in the channel, causing the silt to turn up and enter the dredging pipe 1. The debris mixed in the silt that enters the dredging pipe 1 is crushed by the action of the first cutter 22 and the second cutter 32. Then, the rotation of the first rotating shaft 2 drives the spiral blade 21 to transport the silt that enters the dredging pipe 1. The silt is then sucked into the storage equipment on the dredging vessel by the suction pump, thus completing the dredging and clearing operation of the channel. The port channel dredging and clearing device provided in this embodiment uses the first cutter 22 and the second cutter 32 with opposite rotation directions to break up the debris in the silt, thereby preventing the dredging pipe 1 from getting blocked during the silt transport process, ensuring that the channel dredging and clearing operation is carried out smoothly, and with high dredging efficiency and high reliability.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the output end of the first motor 11 is provided with a first gear 13, and a second gear 23 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 2, with the second gear 23 meshing with the first gear 13. Through the cooperation of the first gear 13 and the second gear 23, the power output by the first motor 11 is transmitted to the first rotating shaft 2, so that the first rotating shaft 2 can rotate smoothly under the drive of the first motor 11 and drive the spiral blades 21 to rotate, which helps to improve the stability of the port channel dredging and clearing device during operation.
[0026] Please combine Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The sludge removal pipe 1 is also equipped with a mesh cover 4, which covers the opening of the sludge removal pipe 1 and has a through hole for the first rotating shaft 2 to pass through. The spiral blade 21 is located within the space enclosed by the sludge removal pipe 1 and the mesh cover 4. The first cutter 22, the second cutter 32, and the stirring paddle 31 are located on the side of the mesh cover 4 away from the spiral blade 21. The mesh cover 4 is positioned between the spiral blade 21 and the first cutter 22 to block debris with a particle size larger than the diameter of the mesh on the mesh cover 4. Debris entering the sludge removal pipe 1 is broken down to a particle size smaller than the diameter of the mesh on the mesh cover 4 by the action of the first cutter 22 and the second cutter 32, allowing it to pass through the mesh cover 4 and contact the spiral blade 21. This prevents debris with an excessively large diameter from being input into the sludge removal pipe 1 by the spiral blade 21 and causing blockage of the sludge removal pipe 1.
[0027] In detail, the mesh cover 4 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 41 spaced apart, and the dredging pipe 1 is provided with first mounting holes 14 aligned one by one with the first through holes 41. The mesh cover 4 can be fixed to the dredging pipe 1 by using screws passing through the first through holes 41 and engaging with the first mounting holes 14, ensuring a secure connection between the mesh cover 4 and the dredging pipe 1 and preventing the mesh cover 4 from accidentally falling off during the installation of the port channel dredging and clearing device.
[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the dredging pipe 1 is also equipped with a flow guide shroud 5. The flow guide shroud 5 is funnel-shaped and located at the opening of the dredging pipe 1, surrounding the stirring paddle 31. The flow guide shroud 5 is used to guide the sludge agitated by the stirring paddle 31 into the dredging pipe 1, preventing the sludge from being carried away by the water flow after being turned up by the stirring paddle 31, thus improving the dredging efficiency of the port channel dredging and clearing device.
[0029] In this embodiment, the flow guide shroud 5 is provided with a plurality of second through holes 51 spaced apart, and the sludge removal pipe 1 is provided with second mounting holes 15 aligned one-to-one with the second through holes 51. When the flow guide shroud 5 is installed on the sludge removal pipe 1, the second through holes 51 are aligned one-to-one with the second mounting holes 15, and screws are used to pass through the second through holes 51 and engage with the second mounting holes 15 to fix the flow guide shroud 5, so that the position of the flow guide shroud 5 on the sludge removal pipe 1 remains stable, and it is convenient to remove the flow guide shroud 5 for inspection and maintenance.
[0030] Please refer to Figure 3 The first rotating shaft 2 has a threaded section 24 at its end. The first cutter 22 includes a first mounting cylinder 25, and the first mounting cylinder 25 has a first threaded hole that mates with the threaded section 24. The first cutter 22 is mounted to the first rotating shaft 2 through the engagement of the first threaded hole on the first mounting cylinder 25 with the threaded section 24 on the first rotating shaft 2. This ensures reliable engagement between the first cutter 22 and the first rotating shaft 2, while also allowing the first cutter 22 to rotate smoothly under the drive of the first rotating shaft 2, preventing the first cutter 22 from detaching from the first rotating shaft 2 during operation of the port channel dredging and clearing device.
[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the end of the second rotating shaft 3 is provided with a threaded rod 33. The second cutter 32 includes a second mounting cylinder 34, and the second mounting cylinder 34 is provided with a third through hole for the threaded rod 33 to pass through. The stirring paddle 31 has a mounting post 35, and the mounting post 35 is provided with a second threaded hole that mates with the threaded rod 33, pressing the second mounting cylinder 34 onto the second rotating shaft 3. When the threaded rod 33 is provided on the second rotating shaft 3, and the second cutter 32 and the stirring paddle 31 are installed on the second rotating shaft 3, the threaded rod 33 is first passed through the third through hole on the second mounting cylinder 34, and then the mounting post 35 is rotated so that the upper second threaded hole mates with the threaded rod 33 until the mounting post 35 presses the second mounting cylinder 34 onto the second rotating shaft 3. Matching keys and keyways are provided on the second rotating shaft 3 and the second mounting cylinder 34 to prevent the second mounting cylinder 34 from rotating relative to the second rotating shaft 3, so as to ensure that the second cutter 32 and the stirring paddle 31 rotate smoothly and synchronously when the second rotating shaft 3 rotates.
[0032] Specifically, the end of the mounting column 35 away from the second rotating shaft 3 has a tapered portion 36. The tapered portion 36 provided at the end of the mounting column 35 is used to insert the stirring paddle 31 into the silt when the port channel dredging and cleaning device is used to suck up silt, so as to keep the position of the port channel dredging and cleaning device on the silt stable and prevent the dredging pipe 1 from tipping over and affecting the dredging and cleaning operation.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
