Description

Field of invention

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of marine litter waste and in particular to a device for recycling and processing marine litter waste. State of the art

[0002] This is often related to the current state and challenges of the management system for marine pollution from plastic waste and microplastics. Plastic waste in the ocean has become a global environmental problem requiring the combined efforts of international organizations, governments, businesses, civil society groups, and the public. Currently, there is no global governance mechanism specifically addressing marine pollution from plastic waste and microplastics, and establishing such a mechanism quickly is difficult.

[0003] The management of marine plastic waste now encompasses virtually all scenarios, including surface runoff, coastal tourism, shipping, and aquaculture and fisheries. However, the existing literature has paid little attention to governance strategies and measures in the aquaculture and fisheries sectors. While management practices follow a framework for reducing waste sources and controlling processes, supplemented by measures to prevent waste from entering the sea and for marine recovery, aiming for full life-cycle management of plastics, an extension to the production of plastic feedstocks and the recycling of plastic waste remains lacking.

[0004] Currently, conventional marine waste recycling and processing facilities require time-consuming manual labor to load materials during the shredding process. This is labor-intensive and reduces efficiency. Furthermore, it is not possible to verify the specifications of the shredded marine debris, thus preventing optimal utilization. Object of the invention

[0014] The following are concrete examples of the implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying figures, which provide a more detailed explanation with regard to the present invention, whereby these examples of implementation are not intended as a limitation of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0015] With regard to the Fig. 1 and Fig. 4. The present invention offers a technical solution: a device for recycling and processing marine waste, comprising a crushing chamber 1, a support base 2 arranged at the lower end of the crushing chamber 1, a telescopic rod 3 arranged on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the crushing chamber 1, and a material discharge platform 4, which is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 3. A feed mechanism 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the crushing chamber 1, a crushing roller 6 is rotatably connected to the center of the crushing chamber 1, and a discharge opening 7 is formed on one side of the crushing chamber 1. A connecting base 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the crushing chamber 1, and a screening mechanism 9 is screwed onto one side of the connecting base 8.

[0016] The feeding mechanism 5 comprises a baffle plate 51, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to the upper end of the crushing chamber 1. A conveyor belt 52 is positioned on the inside of the baffle plate 51, while fixed legs 53 are attached to its lower end. The upper end of the baffle plate 51 is fixedly connected to a feed hopper 54, and one side of the baffle plate 51 is fixedly connected to a mounting frame 55. A servo motor 56 is detachably connected to one side of the mounting frame 55. The output shaft of the servo motor 56 is connected via a gearbox to a drive roller 57. The upper end of the support base 2 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the crushing chamber 1. The lower end of the telescopic rod 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the crushing chamber 1.

[0017] Marine waste is fed onto the conveyor belt 52 via a hopper 54. The servo motor 56 drives the drive roller 57, setting the conveyor belt 52 into continuous motion for automated material feeding. The conveyor belt 52 smoothly transports the waste into the shredding chamber 1, reducing manual labor during loading and improving operational efficiency. The non-slip grooves and rubber material on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 52 ensure stability and grip during transport, preventing slippage or material accumulation. The waste is then conveyed via the belt 52 into the shredding chamber 1, where it falls between the two shredding rollers 6. Activating the externally mounted motor sets the shredding rollers 6 in motion, pulverizing the waste material.

[0018] The crushing roller 6 reduces waste materials to pulverize them. Upon entering the crushing chamber 1, see... Fig. 2. To accelerate the transport of marine waste on the conveyor belt, the inner wall of the impact plate 51 is flush with the outer wall of the conveyor belt 52. The lower end of the impact plate 51 is firmly connected to the upper end of the support leg 53. The outer surface of the conveyor belt 52 is provided with non-slip grooves and is made of rubber components.

[0019] By adjusting the telescopic rod 3, the feed table 4 can be raised or lowered to accommodate scrap material of varying heights and ensure that it falls precisely between the crushing rollers 6. Driven by an electric motor, the crushing rollers 6 rotate to shred the scrap material and break it down into finer particles for subsequent screening and recycling. The shredded material is discharged through the outlet 7 and enters the screening mechanism 9 for sorting.

[0020] See Fig.3: To accelerate the screening of marine debris, the screening mechanism 9 comprises a screen box 91, one side of which is bolted to one side of the connecting base 8. A sealing cover 92 is attached to one side of the screen box 91, while a feed frame 93 is positioned at the front end of the screen box 91. Support rods 94 are fixedly connected to the lower edge of the screen box 91. A divider plate 95 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the screen box 91, with a screen frame 96 overlapping the upper end of the divider plate 95. A divider bar 97 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the screen frame 96, while a screen mesh 98 is fixedly connected to both sides of the divider plate 95. Limiting rods 99 are fixedly attached around the lower circumference of the sieve frame 96, the lower ends of the limiting rods 99 being firmly connected to limiting cylinders 910 via springs.A sealing block 911 is fixedly connected to one side of the sieve frame 96, and a vibratory motor 912 is screwed to the lower end of the separating bar 97. One side of the sieve box 91 is screwed to one side of the sealing cover 92, while the front end of the sieve box 91 is connected to the rear end of the outlet frame 93. The mesh size of the sieve fabric 98 remains constant and gradually increases as the sieve fabric 98 moves further away from the outlet opening 7. The number of sieve fabrics 98 corresponds to the number of outlet frames 93.

[0021] The screen frame 96 within the screen box 91 is set into vibration by the vibratory motor 912. The increasingly larger mesh size of the screen fabric 98 enables automatic screening of waste materials of varying specifications. During the screening process, the waste materials continuously impact the screen fabric 98. Smaller particles fall through the screen fabric 98 into the discharge container 93 below, while larger particles are screened on the screen fabric 98 until the desired specification is achieved.

[0022] The limit bar 99 below the screen frame 96 and the limit cylinder 910 are connected to each other via springs, thus ensuring a certain degree of damping and stability during the screening process. This prevents damage to the system caused by strong vibrations during screening. Due to the inclined arrangement of the screen frame 96, the crushed raw materials slide downwards along its surface. At the same time, the screen box 91 separates different areas from each other by means of a partition 95. Finally, the materials within the same area are discharged via a single discharge chute 93 to collect and process them according to category.

[0023] The design of the sealing block 911 and the sealing cover 92 ensures the integrity of the seal during the screening process and prevents splashing or escape of waste material. This guarantees a clean and safe working environment. The screened waste material is discharged smoothly via the discharge frame 93, facilitating further processing. Through the integrated application of the feeding mechanism 5 and the screening mechanism 9, the entire device achieves automated feeding, shredding, and screening of marine waste. This significantly improves the efficiency and quality of waste recycling processes. Furthermore, the device is characterized by its simple design, convenient operation, and easy maintenance, thus offering high practicality and great potential for a wide range of applications.It has broad application prospects and market potential in the field of disposal and reuse of marine plastic waste.

[0024] The shredded material falls onto the discharge platform. Parameters such as the speed of the conveyor belt 52, the rotational speed of the crushing rollers 6, and the opening of the screen mesh 98 can then be adjusted according to the actual requirements to meet the processing needs of different types and specifications of marine waste. Additional equipment such as dust collectors and washing units can also be integrated to further improve the efficiency and environmental compatibility of the waste recycling process. Initially, the marine waste is fed onto the conveyor belt 52 via the feed hopper 54. The servo motor 56 drives the drive roller 57, setting the conveyor belt 52 into continuous circulation and enabling automatic feeding of the waste material.The waste is smoothly transported by conveyor belt 52 and conveyed into the shredding chamber 1, reducing the labor intensity of manual feeding and increasing operational efficiency. The non-slip grooves and rubber material on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 52 ensure stability and grip during transport, preventing slippage or material accumulation. The waste is then conveyed via conveyor belt 52 into the shredding chamber 1, where it falls between the two shredding rollers 6. Activating the externally mounted motor sets the shredding rollers 6 in motion, pulverizing the waste material.

[0025] The crushing rollers 6 are capable of shredding waste materials to achieve pulverization. Upon entering the crushing chamber 1, the feed platform 4 can be vertically adjusted via the telescopic rod 3 to accommodate waste of varying heights and ensure precise feeding between the crushing rollers 6. Driven by the motor, the crushing rollers 6 rotate to pulverize the waste material and reduce it to finer particles for subsequent screening and recycling processes. The shredded waste is discharged through the outlet 7 and enters the screening mechanism 9 for sorting. The relative movement of the two crushing rollers concentrates the waste material towards the center of the crushing chamber. It then falls onto the feed platform, where its height can be controlled via the telescopic rod.The feed platform is configured with a gradient from low to high, which facilitates the sloping transfer of waste material into the sieving mechanism while enabling precise volume control.

[0026] The screen frame 96 within the screen box 91 is vibrated by the vibratory motor 912. Due to the progressively larger mesh size of the screen fabric 98, waste materials of varying specifications are automatically screened in successive stages. During the screening process, the waste materials continuously impact the screen fabric 98. Smaller particles fall through the screen fabric 98 into the discharge frame 93 below, while larger particles are screened on the screen fabric 98 until the desired specification is achieved. The limit bar 99 and the limit cylinder 910 below the screen frame 96 are connected by springs, which provide damping and stability during the screening process. This prevents damage to the system from excessive vibrations during the screening process.

[0027] The inclined configuration of the screen frame 96 allows the shredded material to slide down its surface. Simultaneously, the screen box 91, using separating plates 95, separates different areas from one another, with the material from each area ultimately being discharged via the corresponding discharge chute 93 for sorted collection and processing. The design of the sealing block 911 and the sealing cover 92 ensures the integrity of the seal during the screening process and prevents splashing or leakage of waste material, while maintaining a clean and safe working environment. The screened waste material is smoothly discharged via the discharge frame 93 for further processing. Through the integrated application of the feeding mechanism 5 and the screening mechanism 9, the entire device achieves automated feeding, shredding, and screening of marine waste.This significantly improves the efficiency and quality of waste recycling. Furthermore, the device is characterized by its simple design, user-friendly operation, and easy maintenance, thus offering high practicality and broad application potential. It has wide application prospects and market potential in the field of marine plastic waste disposal and reuse. The shredded material falls onto the discharge platform. Subsequently, parameters such as the conveyor belt speed (52), the rotational speed of the shredding rollers (6), and the screen mesh opening (98) can be adjusted according to actual requirements to meet the processing needs of various types and specifications of marine waste. In addition, auxiliary equipment such as dust collectors and washing devices can be added to further improve the effectiveness and environmental friendliness of waste recovery.This completes the operating process of the entire device.
