Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a drainage purification tool, and more specifically, to a drainage waste collection tool capable of collecting waste accumulated inside a drainage more efficiently. Background Technology
[0002] Generally, drainage channels are installed in various places such as roadsides, parks, and recreational areas to drain wastewater, including rainwater.
[0003] A drainage channel refers to a waterway installed for the drainage of wastewater, and can be classified into open drainage channels installed above ground and culvert drainage channels buried underground.
[0004] Since culvert drainage channels are installed underground, there is no problem with hindering the movement of people or wheeled vehicles such as strollers on the surface due to the installation method. However, in the case of open drainage channels installed above ground, there is a problem where it is difficult for people, as well as wheeled vehicles such as strollers, to move on the upper part of the channel; therefore, gratings (drainage channel covers) are installed on the upper part of open drainage channels installed above ground.
[0005] The grating has the capability to withstand loads applied from above while filtering out relatively large foreign substances, and at the same time allows rainwater or sewage to drain smoothly.
[0006] A conventional grating is configured such that, for example, multiple flat bars or I-shaped bearing bars are welded in the width direction between two frames, and multiple rods or screw-shaped cross bars intersect at the top of the bearing bars, thereby allowing rainwater or sewage to be drained smoothly while filtering out relatively large foreign substances at the top of the drainage channel.
[0007] However, in the case of conventional gratings, problems arise because the drainage channel is formed to be in communication with the air, causing relatively small debris such as cigarette butts and fallen leaves to accumulate inside the channel, making it dirty or clogging the channel due to the debris.
[0008] Therefore, removing the trash accumulated in the drainage system was not only inconvenient, requiring the artist to use tools such as tongs or manually remove it one by one, but also posed a problem in that cleaning took a long time. Prior art literature

One end of a wire is connected to the lever, and the other end of the wire is connected to the fixing member via the handle portion and the pivoting member. When the wire is pulled or released by the operation of the lever, the fixing member protruding from both vertical frames of the pivoting member is inserted into the vertical frame or protrudes again. At this time, the fixing member is removed from or re-inserted from one of the fixing holes of the cylindrical member, thereby causing the pivoting member to rotate between two fixing holes or be fixed in one of the fixing holes.
[0014] The above wire is guided by a plurality of pulleys along a path leading to a lever and a fixed member, and the fixed member is elastically supported by a spring of the vertical frame of the pivoting member.
[0015] The above cylindrical member is characterized by having a stopper that restricts the vertical frame of the pivoting member to pivot only between the shovel fixing hole and the rake fixing hole formed in the above cylindrical member.
[0016] A handle and grating removal tool is screw-fastened to the handle portion, and the handle and grating removal tool is characterized by being composed of a handle and a hook.
[0017] The grating fastening member used when removing a grating with the above-described handle and grating removal tool comprises: an upper support member supported above the bearing bar and cross bar of the grating; a lower support member that can be inserted or withdrawn between the bearing bar and cross bar of the grating and, when rotated after insertion, catches on the lower side of the bearing bar and cross bar to prevent it from coming loose; a connecting shaft that rotatably connects the lower support member to the upper support member; and a grating removal hook connected to the connecting shaft on the upper surface of the upper support member and hooked with the hook when removing or transporting the grating.
