System for preventing the build-up of sand dunes on roads and collecting and transferring same from the roadside to a storage site

Abstract

The present invention relates a roadside system aimed at preventing sand dunes and collecting and transporting same from the roadside to a central sand collection point within city limits in order to use the sand dunes later. The system comprises: a wind movement sensor (7) that sends information to a control and monitoring office to monitor dust-raising wind speed and sand movement in all locations around the kingdom. Breakers (6) angled towards temporary collection areas (8) then collect and hold back the sand before it reaches the road. When the sand begins to build up, sensors (10) start sending the sand height level to the control and monitoring office, which, in turn, dispatches a train (1) with containers (5) along a railway (9), the train stopping at the top of the temporary collection area. A storage and distribution device (2) removes and stores the sand from the temporary collection area (8) and then distributes it to the containers (5) through an opening (4). The train (1) and the storage and distribution device (2) then depart to perform the same operation at other sites.
