OBJETO DE LA INVENCIONOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

La presente memoria descriptiva define un dispositivo barredor de depositos que extrae los turbios o lodos del fondo de un tanque o deposito por medio de un rascador y la ayuda de una bomba de tal manera que se logra que el aceite, vino o 10 productos liquidos, y el residuo esten el minimo tiempo posible en contacto y por tanto se reducen la transferencia de aromas o sustancias no deseadas. A su vez, el presente dispositivo permite ser accionado y manipulado manualmente por un operario desde el exterior. El campo de aplicacion de la invention es el sector relacionado con los liquidos alimenticios, y en concreto va destinado al sector de la 15 produccion de aceite y vino.The present specification defines a deposit sweeping device that extracts turbines or sludges from the bottom of a tank or tank by means of a scraper and the help of a pump in such a way that it is achieved that oil, wine or 10 liquid products, and the residue is the minimum possible contact time and therefore the transfer of undesired aromas or substances is reduced. In turn, the present device allows to be manually operated and manipulated by an operator from outside. The field of application of the invention is the sector related to food liquids, and in particular it is intended for the oil and wine production sector.

ANTECEDENTESBACKGROUND

En el sector del almacenaje de sustancias liquidas en tanques o depositos se conoce la existencia de diversos elementos de limpieza o mezcladores, estando esta idea o 20 dispositivos principalmente instaurados en los procesos de limpieza de depositos de aguas residuales.In the sector of the storage of liquid substances in tanks or reservoirs, the existence of various cleaning elements or mixers is known, this idea or 20 devices being mainly established in the processes of cleaning waste water tanks.

En ese tipo de depositos se produce una sedimentation de los solidos en suspension procedentes del tratamiento biologico de las aguas residuales urbanas e industriales, y en estos casos en el interior del deposito se introduce un dispositivo que rompe la 25 posible espuma producida en el proceso de production de fangos reteniendo los flotantes presentes para evitar que salgan con el agua depurada.In this type of deposit there is a sedimentation of the suspended solids from the biological treatment of urban and industrial wastewater, and in these cases a device is introduced inside the tank that breaks the possible foam produced in the process of sludge production retaining the floats present to prevent them from going out with purified water.

Por lo general, en esa tipologia de dispositivos se situan concentricamente al deposito una armadura vertical central y en su parte media o inferior dispone unas aletas o rastrillos que giran solidariamente al eje central de manera que mantiene elIn general, in this type of devices a central vertical armor is located concentrically to the tank and in its middle or lower part it has fins or rakes that rotate in solidarity with the central axis so that it maintains the

movimiento continuo del agua residual que hay en su interior. Hay una gran diversidad de ejemplos de esta tipologia concreta de dispositivos, entre los que destacamos el registro ES0453192 de Dorr-Oliver Incorporated, el registro ES2399739 de Angel Luis Ibanez Munoz o el registro EP2521610 de Invent Umwelt-Und Verfahrenstechnik, que todos guardan esta premisa basica y disponen de implementaciones en la zona o bien de las aletas o bien de la estructura vertical.continuous movement of wastewater inside. There is a great diversity of examples of this specific typology of devices, among which we highlight the ES0453192 register of Dorr-Oliver Incorporated, the register ES2399739 of Angel Luis Ibanez Munoz or the register EP2521610 of Invent Umwelt-Und Verfahrenstechnik, which all keep this premise basic and have implementations in the area either of the fins or of the vertical structure.

Tambien hay otros tipos de dispositivos que incorporan una pluralidad de inyectores en dicha parte inferior como lo definido en el registro ES8604474 de Alsthom- Atlantique; o tambien teniendo un bastidor central como estructura disponga de palas en dicho eje vertical como lo definido en el registro EP1648843 de Syndicat Intercommunal; otros que por ejemplo dispongan de un dispositivo agitador formado por una pala con forma helocoidal vertical como lo definido en el registro EP1123731 de Ekato Solidmix GmbH; o finalmente dispositivos y aparatos para limpieza de depositos mas complejos como los que almacenan petroleo, que tal como se define en el registro EP1106269 se basan en la circulation del producto almacenado.There are also other types of devices that incorporate a plurality of injectors in said lower part as defined in the register ES8604474 of Alsthom-Atlantique; or also having a central frame as a structure, have blades on said vertical axis as defined in the EP1648843 register of Syndicat Intercommunal; others that, for example, have a stirring device formed by a blade with a vertical helocoidal shape as defined in the EP1123731 register of Ekato Solidmix GmbH; or finally devices and apparatus for cleaning more complex deposits such as those that store oil, which as defined in the EP1106269 register are based on the circulation of the stored product.

Todos estos casos tienen el mismo inconveniente en comun, que si bien es cierto que agitan y pretenden impedir que los solidos en suspension dentro de la masa liquida decanten, la limpieza de dichos solidos decantados o lodos adheridos requiere que sean vaciados y a continuation se limpie mediante la aplicacion directa de agua a presion sobre las paredes internas de dichos depositos o tanques.All these cases have the same inconvenience in common, that although it is true that they agitate and are intended to prevent suspended solids within the liquid mass from decaying, the cleaning of said decanted solids or adhered sludge requires that they be emptied and then cleaned the direct application of pressurized water on the internal walls of said tanks or tanks.

Como alternativa a estos dispositivos que no resuelven la problematica de la limpieza surge la presente invention, primero porque presenta una solution que es adaptable a una tipologia concreta de tanques o depositos, que son los de liquido alimenticio y en concreto depositos de aceite y vino, cuya limpieza se basaba en grifos inferiores por donde eliminar las impurezas, como por ejemplo lo definido en el registro ES1113056U, y/o con una limpieza de las paredes y fondo del deposito una vez este estuviera vacio y por agua a presion, porque presenta una solucion que ademas permite un comportamiento optimo de dicho producto alimenticio liquido en su tiempo de almacenaje, y finalmente porque presenta una solucion que permite ser utilizada de manera manual por un operario cuando este lo desee, y por tanto su mecanismo e implantation en el deposito es barato y sencillo pudiendo ser instaladoAs an alternative to these devices that do not solve the problem of cleaning, the present invention arises, first because it presents a solution that is adaptable to a specific type of tanks or tanks, which are those of food liquid and specifically oil and wine deposits, whose cleaning was based on lower taps where to eliminate impurities, such as defined in the register ES1113056U, and / or with a cleaning of the walls and bottom of the tank once it was empty and by water under pressure, because it presents a solution that also allows an optimal behavior of said liquid food product in its storage time, and finally because it presents a solution that allows it to be used manually by an operator when he wants it, and therefore its mechanism and implantation in the tank is cheap and simple and can be installed

en cualquier tipo de deposito cuyo fondo sea una superficie plana, incluso pudiendo o no tener una cierta inclination.in any type of deposit whose bottom is a flat surface, even having or not having a certain inclination.

Es por todo ello que se considera que la presente invention constituye una solution que se diferencia de la configuration y caracteristicas de cualquier tipo de dispositivo barredor del fondo de depositos , ya sea para la limpieza del deposito en si, de la prevention de precipitation de solidos o de la agitation del Hquido contenido en el deposito, y por tanto se introduce en el sector una solucion totalmente innovadora que permite ubicar un dispositivo barredor en el fondo de cualquier tipologia de deposito o tanque cuya base sea un plana, pudiendo incluso tener o no cierta inclinacion.That is why it is considered that the present invention constitutes a solution that differs from the configuration and characteristics of any type of sweeping device of the deposit fund, either for the cleaning of the deposit itself, of the prevention of precipitation of solids or of the agitation of the Liquid contained in the deposit, and therefore a totally innovative solution is introduced in the sector that allows to locate a sweeping device at the bottom of any type of deposit or tank whose base is a flat, even having or not having some inclination.

DESCRIPCION DEL INVENTODESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

La presente invencion define un dispositivo barredor de depositos, en concreto del fondo de dichos depositos cuando estos tienen una superficie plana aunque esta superficie pueda tener cierta inclinacion respecto de la base del propio deposito o tanque. Tambien se debe destacar que la presente invencion va destinada al almacenaje preferente de Hquidos alimenticios y en concreto su objetivo principal es el de ser instalada en depositos de aceite y vino.The present invention defines a deposit sweeping device, in particular the bottom of said deposits when they have a flat surface although this surface may have some inclination with respect to the base of the deposit itself or tank. It should also be noted that the present invention is intended for the preferential storage of food liquids and specifically its main objective is to be installed in oil and wine tanks.

Para ello, la invencion se basa en una estructura formada por cuatro brazos radiales que partiendo del centro del deposito se disponen cada 90° y en el que en uno de esos brazos se ubica el elemento rascador de fondo que a la vez que raspa el fondo succiona la suciedad o solidos que puedan haber en dicho fondo, y de cuyo centro parte una tuberia de suction con dicha suciedad o solidos, de tal manera que el conjunto barre y limpia de suciedad el fondo del deposito. En este sentido es importante destacar que este dispositivo barredor se manipula manualmente desde el exterior gracias a un sistema de imanes, para lo cual cada brazo dispone de un soporte con un iman que se pone en contacto con la pared del deposito, y desde la parte exterior del deposito un operario con otro iman desplaza dicho brazo 90°, con lo que repitiendo esta operation varias veces se abarca toda la superficie y diametro del deposito.For this, the invention is based on a structure formed by four radial arms that start from the center of the tank every 90 ° and in which in one of those arms is located the bottom scraper element that at the same time scratches the bottom sucks dirt or solids that may be in said bottom, and from whose center a suction pipe with said dirt or solids, so that the whole sweeps and cleans the bottom of the tank of dirt. In this regard it is important to note that this sweeping device is manually manipulated from the outside thanks to a magnet system, for which each arm has a support with a magnet that contacts the wall of the tank, and from the part outside the tank an operator with another magnet displaces said arm 90 °, so repeating this operation several times covers the entire surface and diameter of the tank.

Entrando en mas detalle, la estructura formada por cuatro brazos se ubica en la parte inferior e interior del deposito. Como se ha adelantado, los cuatros brazos se parten del centro del deposito y se apoyan en una base central con rodamiento que permite el giro de dicha estructura. Uno de los brazos es el elemento rascador, que entre otros elementos que se definiran posteriormente dispone de un iman en su extremo , mientras que los otros tres brazos son tubos cuya mision es soportar un iman en su extremo en contacto con la pared del deposito. La mision principal de esta configuracion radial es que un operario desde el exterior por medio de un mango con iman exterior pueda deslizar dicho mango cada 90°, repitiendo esta operation tantas veces sea necesaria, de tal manera que la estructura y el elemento rascador pueda limpiar los 360°. La ubicacion de estos imanes cada 90° responde a que de esta manera solo es preciso dibujar o senalar la ubicacion inicial y el recorrido del iman en esa superficie y por tanto no hay problema con posibles cuerpos exteriores que interfieran el recorrido del iman en todo su diametro, dado que es solo es preciso dejar libre de obstaculos en el exterior ese cuarto de circunferencia.Going into more detail, the structure formed by four arms is located in the lower and inner part of the tank. As advanced, the four arms are split from the center of the tank and rest on a central base with a bearing that allows the rotation of said structure. One of the arms is the scraper element, which among other elements that will be defined later has a magnet at its end, while the other three arms are tubes whose mission is to support a magnet at its end in contact with the tank wall. The main mission of this radial configuration is that an operator from the outside by means of a handle with an external magnet can slide said handle every 90 °, repeating this operation as many times as necessary, so that the structure and the scraper element can clean 360 ° The location of these magnets every 90 ° responds that in this way it is only necessary to draw or mark the initial location and the path of the magnet on that surface and therefore there is no problem with possible external bodies that interfere with the path of the magnet in all its diameter, since it is only necessary to leave that circumference room free of obstacles outside.

Si entramos en el detalle del elemento rascador, se debe decir que ocupa la longitud equivalente al radio de la circunferencia que en planta ocupa la base del deposito. Este elemento rascador es un elemento lineal y tubular rectangular hueco. La seccion de este elemento rascador no es continua, sino que decrece desde el centro del deposito hacia el extremo en contacto con la pared del deposito, es decir, que la seccion cuadrangular es mayor en el zona central del deposito y es menor en el extremo en contacto con la pared del deposito. Este elemento rascador tiene una serie de particularidades que le permite conseguir el objetivo para el que esta disenado, que es por un lado el raspar o barrer el fondo, para lo que dispone de unas pletinas raspadoras en contacto con el fondo, y por otro lado el de limpiar o succionar los solidos y desperdicios depositados en el fondo para lo cual se dispone de unos ranurados de aspiracion en la cara inferior del elemento rascador que succionan dichos solidos y son succionados hacia el exterior por medio de una tuberia de suction conectada a una bomba exterior. El mecanismo de barrido, limpieza y aspiration de los desperdicios o solidos ubicados en el fondo es el que el operario desde el exterior por medio del soporte iman hace desplazar el elemento rascador, el cual mediante sus pletinas raspadoras levanta los solidos del fondo, losIf we go into the detail of the scraper element, it must be said that it occupies the length equivalent to the radius of the circumference that the base of the deposit occupies in plan. This scraper element is a hollow rectangular linear and tubular element. The section of this scraper element is not continuous, but decreases from the center of the tank towards the end in contact with the wall of the tank, that is, that the quadrangular section is larger in the central area of the tank and is smaller at the end in contact with the tank wall. This scraper element has a series of particularities that allow it to achieve the objective for which it is designed, which is on the one hand to scrape or sweep the bottom, for which it has scraper plates in contact with the bottom, and on the other hand that of cleaning or suctioning the solids and waste deposited at the bottom for which there are suction grooves on the underside of the scraper element that suction said solids and are sucked outwards by means of a suction pipe connected to a outside pump The mechanism of sweeping, cleaning and aspiration of the waste or solids located in the bottom is the one that the operator from the outside by means of the magnet support moves the scraper element, which by means of its scraper plates lifts the solids from the bottom, the

cuales son succionados por los ranurados de aspiration y extraidos al exterior gracias a la tuberia de suction.which are suctioned by the grooves of aspiration and extracted to the outside thanks to the suction pipe.

En este sentido cabe destacarse que las pletinas raspadoras, que son como unos faldones inclinados, se colocan en la cara frontal del elemento rascador y hay una pluralidad de ellos dependiendo el numero de la longitud del brazo. Estas pletinas raspadores tienen una minima separation entre ellas para que el desplazamiento angular sea mas favorable y haya menos rozamiento al avance por parte del liquido, y porque de esa manera en caso de rotura o necesidad de mantenimiento este sea mas facil de reparar, y estan fijadas a la cara frontal por medio de bisagras. En la cara frontal se dispone tambien una serie de contrapesos fijados cuya funcion es la de que los raspadores mantengan su posicion y aseguren el contacto con el fondo. De igual manera, en la cara posterior del elemento rascador se pueden ubicar unas solapas inclinadas que hagan que los solidos levantados en el proceso de rascado de superficie se mantengan en la zona de succion y sean precisamente aspiradas por el ranurado inferior.In this sense it should be noted that the scraper plates, which are like sloping skirts, are placed on the front face of the scraper element and there are a plurality of them depending on the number of the arm length. These scraper plates have a minimum separation between them so that the angular displacement is more favorable and there is less friction to the advance on the part of the liquid, and because in that way in case of breakage or need of maintenance this is easier to repair, and they are fixed to the front face by means of hinges. A series of fixed counterweights are also arranged on the front face whose function is that the scrapers maintain their position and ensure contact with the bottom. Similarly, on the rear face of the scraper element, inclined flaps can be located that make the solids raised in the surface scratching process remain in the suction zone and are precisely aspirated by the lower grooving.

Siguiendo este ultimo argumento, en la cara o pared inferior del elemento rascador se ubican una serie de ranurados de aspiracion, los cuales tienen una minima separacion entre ellos a modo de nervios de tal manera que dicha superficie de aspiracion no es continua, y de esta manera, esa superficie total de aspiracion es mas resistente frente a las posibles turbulencias generadas por el movimiento de brazo y los solidos levantados por los faldones raspadores. Cabe destacarse que la section de dichos ranurados tambien es variable, y es decreciente segun se acerca al extremo en contacto con la pared, es decir, que los ranurados de aspiracion tiene mayor superficie de succion en la zona central del deposito y menor en la zona del extremo.Following this last argument, a series of suction grooves are located on the face or bottom wall of the scraper element, which have a minimum separation between them as nerves such that said suction surface is not continuous, and of this In this way, this total suction surface is more resistant against the possible turbulence generated by the arm movement and the solids raised by the scraping skirts. It should be noted that the section of said grooves is also variable, and is decreasing as it approaches the end in contact with the wall, that is, that the suction grooves have a greater suction surface in the central area of the tank and less in the area from the end

Como se adelanto al principio de la description, el elemento rascador es lineal y tiene una configuracion tubular rectangular y hueca. Este ultimo hecho es muy importante, porque al ser hueca permite la conduccion de los solidos succionados hacia el exterior. Para ello, el elemento rascador conecta en su parte central con un rodamiento hueco que esta en contacto con una tuberia de aspiracion fija conectada con una bomba exterior que succiona dichos solidos y los expulsa al exterior. Como se acaba de decir, el elemento rascador en el centro se conecta con un rodamientoAs anticipated at the beginning of the description, the scraper element is linear and has a rectangular and hollow tubular configuration. This last fact is very important, because being hollow allows the conduction of solids sucked outwards. For this, the scraper element connects in its central part with a hollow bearing that is in contact with a fixed suction pipe connected with an external pump that sucks said solids and expels them to the outside. As just said, the scraper element in the center is connected with a bearing

hueco para que dicho rodamiento tambien permita el giro de la estructura de los cuatro brazos y a su vez este rodamiento con la tuberia fija anclada en el exterior da estabilidad al conjunto del dispositivo barredor.hollow so that said bearing also allows the rotation of the structure of the four arms and in turn this bearing with the fixed pipe anchored on the outside gives stability to the whole sweeping device.

Cara a facilitar el movimiento de la estructura, se dispone de al menos una rueda en 5 el brazo del elemento raspador, ubicada en el extremo en contacto con la pared del deposito. Esta rueda fija la estructura y la guia para que el movimiento circular sea correcto. Como se comenta, esta rueda tambien puede ser ubicada en el resto de brazos de la estructura.In order to facilitate the movement of the structure, at least one wheel is disposed in the arm of the scraper element, located at the end in contact with the tank wall. This wheel fixes the structure and the guide so that the circular movement is correct. As mentioned, this wheel can also be located in the rest of the arms of the structure.

Finalmente, cabe destacarse que el soporte del iman que cada uno de los brazos 10 dispone esta compuesto por una pletina de la cual surge una varilla con un iman incluido en un casquillo con un tapon de nailon. Cara a ajustar el iman contra la pared del deposito, en la varilla hay un muelle para ajustar dicha position contra la pared.Finally, it should be noted that the magnet holder that each of the arms 10 has is composed of a plate from which a rod with a magnet included in a bushing with a nylon plug emerges. In order to adjust the magnet against the wall of the tank, on the rod there is a spring to adjust said position against the wall.

Los materiales utilizados para los diferentes elementos que componen el conjunto 15 del dispositivo barredor de depositos pueden ser variables, siempre y cuando no afecten las propiedades del liquido alimenticio, por tanto pueden ser de naturaleza plastica, metalica revestida o aceros.The materials used for the different elements that make up the assembly 15 of the deposit sweeping device can be variable, as long as they do not affect the properties of the food liquid, therefore they can be of a plastic nature, coated metal or steels.

Para completar la description que se esta realizando y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprension de las caracteristicas del invento, se acompana como parte 20 integrante de la misma un juego de dibujos en donde con caracter ilustrativo y no limitativo se ha representado lo siguiente:To complete the description that is being carried out and in order to help a better understanding of the features of the invention, a set of drawings is attached as an integral part thereof, where the following has been represented with an illustrative and non-limiting nature:

Descripcion de los dibujosDescription of the drawings

En la Figura 1 se puede observar al conjunto del dispositivo barredor dentro de un deposito, y en concreto se puede observar como dicho dispositivo es utilizable en depositos con fondo plano y con una ligera o cierta inclination constante en ellos. En la presente figura se puede observar como el dispositivo barredor esta ubicado en la zona inferior e interior del deposito y compuesto por una estructura formada por cuatro brazos (10) ubicados radialmente respecto del centro del deposito, y como en uno de ellos se ubica lo que se denomina el elemento rascador (1) que es el encargado tanto de raspar la superficie del fondo del deposito como de succionar y aspirar los solidos decantados o desperdicios que pudieran haber en dicho suelo. Este elemento rascador (1) se encuentra conectado a una tuberia de suction (2) que expulsa dichos desperdicios al exterior por la action de una bomba. El invento esta pensado para que la estructura tenga un movimiento giratorio respecto de su centro, por tanto se dispone de una base central (6) con rodamientos que permite el giro de dicha estructura, al igual que en la conexion entre el elemento rascador y la tuberia de succion se coloca un rodamiento hueco (5) que tambien permite el giro de la estructura. En este sentido, y aunque no se aprecia en la figura, la base central (6) esta compuesta preferentemente por un casquillo exterior de material inoxidable que albergue a su vez un casquilla interior de nailon con una varilla de conexion con la estructura de material a su vez inoxidable.In Figure 1 the whole sweeping device can be observed inside a tank, and in particular it can be seen how said device is usable in deposits with a flat bottom and with a slight or certain constant inclination in them. In the present figure it can be seen how the sweeping device is located in the lower and inner zone of the tank and composed of a structure formed by four arms (10) located radially with respect to the center of the tank, and as one of them is located that is called the scraper element (1) which is responsible for both scraping the surface of the bottom of the tank and sucking and vacuuming the decanted solids or waste that could be in said soil. This scraper element (1) is connected to a suction pipe (2) that expels said waste to the outside by the action of a pump. The invention is designed so that the structure has a rotating movement with respect to its center, therefore there is a central base (6) with bearings that allows the rotation of said structure, as in the connection between the scraper element and the Suction pipe is placed a hollow bearing (5) that also allows the structure to rotate. In this sense, and although it is not seen in the figure, the central base (6) is preferably composed of an outer ferrule made of stainless material which in turn houses an inner nylon ferrule with a connecting rod with the structure of material a turn stainless.

Como tambien se advierte en esta primera figura, tres de los cuatros brazos (10) tienen la funcion de incorporar en su extremo en contacto con la pared un soporte (30) que lleva adherido un iman (3); mientras que el cuarto brazo tiene la funcion del elemento rascador (1) previamente definido. Esta configuration radial tiene como funcion la de que un operario desde el exterior por medio de un mango (4) con iman pueda deslizar dicho mango cada 90°, repitiendo esta operation tantas veces sea necesaria, de tal manera que la estructura y el elemento rascador (1) pueda limpiar los 360°. En este sentido, y cara a guiar el movimiento del elemento rascador (1) y de todo el conjunto de la estructura, al menos en un extremo de uno de los brazos, y preferentemente en el del elemento rascador (1) se incorpora una rueda (no referenciada en este dibujo) en contacto con el fondo que mejora y asegura el funcionamiento y giro del conjunto.As also noted in this first figure, three of the four arms (10) have the function of incorporating at their end in contact with the wall a support (30) that has a magnet attached (3); while the fourth arm has the function of the scraper element (1) previously defined. This radial configuration has the function that an operator from outside by means of a handle (4) with magnet can slide said handle every 90 °, repeating this operation as many times as necessary, so that the structure and the scraper element (1) can clean 360 °. In this sense, and in order to guide the movement of the scraper element (1) and of the whole structure, at least at one end of one of the arms, and preferably in that of the scraper element (1) a wheel is incorporated (not referenced in this drawing) in contact with the bottom that improves and ensures the operation and rotation of the assembly.

La Figura 2 es una vista en planta del dispositivo barredor de la primera figura dentro del deposito, en el que se puede advertir perfectamente la configuration radial de la estructura con sus brazos (10) y elemento rascador (1) que partiendo del centro del deposito, y mediante movimientos exteriores de 90° gracias a la ubicacion de sus imanes (3) en los extremos de los brazos, puede abarcar y tratar el suelo del deposito en sus 360°. Cabe destacarse como en esta figura si es representada la rueda (7), que como se ha comentado con anterioridad al menos se ubica en el extremo de uno de sus brazos y preferentemente en el del elemento rascador (1), y se puede observar en esta figura la necesidad de disponer de un rodamiento hueco (5) que conecte el elemento rascador (1) con la tuberia de suction (2) y a su vez permita el giro de la estructura.Figure 2 is a plan view of the sweeping device of the first figure inside the tank, in which the radial configuration of the structure with its arms (10) and scraper element (1) can be clearly seen that starting from the center of the tank , and by means of external movements of 90 ° thanks to the location of its magnets (3) at the ends of the arms, it can cover and treat the floor of the tank in its 360 °. It should be noted as in this figure if the wheel (7) is represented, which, as previously mentioned, is at least located at the end of one of its arms and preferably at the end of the scraper element (1), and can be observed in This figure shows the need for a hollow bearing (5) that connects the scraper element (1) with the suction pipe (2) and in turn allows the structure to rotate.

Por otro lado, y teniendo en cuenta las figuras anteriores, en la Figura 3 se puede observar con mayor detalle los diferentes elementos que componen el elemento rascador (1). En primer lugar se debe observar que el elemento rascador (1) es un elemento lineal y tubular rectangular hueco (100). Tambien como se ha adelantado con anterioridad, el elemento rascador (1) tiene el objetivo de raspar o barrer el fondo, para lo cual dispone de una pluralidad de pletinas (11) raspadoras ubicadas en la cara frontal y fijadas a dicha cara por medio de bisagras (12), de tal manera que dichas pletinas que tienen forma de faldon estan en contacto con el fondo y por tanto raspan el fondo; y por otro lado tiene como objetivo el de succionar o extraer los solidos levantado al raspar para lo cual dispone de unos ranurados (no referenciados en esta figura) de succion en su cara inferior. Como se puede observar en esta Figura 3, las pletinas raspadoras (11) son como unos faldones inclinados y se colocan en la cara frontal del elemento rascador. El numero de pletinas (11) es variable dependiendo el numero de la longitud del brazo. Cara a mejorar y asegurar la position de estas pletinas, se ubican tambien en la cara frontal de una serie de contrapesos (13). De igual manera, en la cara posterior del elemento rascador se pueden ubicar unas solapas (no representada en la presente figura) inclinadas que hagan que los solidos levantados en el proceso de rascado de superficie se mantengan en la zona de succion y sean precisamente aspiradas por el ranurado inferior.On the other hand, and taking into account the previous figures, in Figure 3 the different elements that make up the scraper element (1) can be observed in greater detail. First, it should be noted that the scraper element (1) is a hollow rectangular linear and tubular element (100). Also as previously advanced, the scraper element (1) has the objective of scraping or sweeping the bottom, for which it has a plurality of scraper plates (11) located on the front face and fixed to said face by means of hinges (12), such that said flaps that are shaped like a skirt are in contact with the bottom and therefore scrape the bottom; and on the other hand it has the objective of sucking or extracting the solids raised by scraping for which it has grooves (not referenced in this figure) of suction in its lower face. As can be seen in this Figure 3, the scraper plates (11) are like inclined skirts and are placed on the front face of the scraper element. The number of plates (11) is variable depending on the number of the arm length. In order to improve and ensure the position of these plates, they are also located on the front face of a series of counterweights (13). Similarly, inclined flaps (not shown in this figure) can be placed on the back side of the scraper element so that the solids raised in the surface scraping process are kept in the suction area and precisely aspirated by lower grooving

Un detalle importante de la invention y que se puede observar en esta Figura 3 es que el soporte (30) del iman ubicado en el extremo de cada uno de los brazos de la estructura, y en el caso de la presente figura en el extremo del elemento rascador (1), esta definido por una pletina o soporte de la cual surge una varilla (32) con un iman (3) incluido en un casquillo con un tapon de nailon. Cara a ajustar el iman (3) contra la pared del deposito y asi el operario puede desplazar el mango (4) con el iman exterior los 90°, en la varilla (32) hay un muelle (31) para ajustar la position del iman (3) contra la pared. Por otro lado, en esta figura tambien se puede observar como en ese mismo extremo se ubica una rueda (7) previamente definida.An important detail of the invention and which can be seen in this Figure 3 is that the support (30) of the magnet located at the end of each of the arms of the structure, and in the case of the present figure at the end of the scraper element (1), is defined by a plate or support from which a rod (32) with a magnet (3) included in a bushing with a nylon plug emerges. Face to adjust the magnet (3) against the wall of the tank and thus the operator can move the handle (4) with the outer magnet 90 °, on the rod (32) there is a spring (31) to adjust the position of the magnet (3) against the wall. On the other hand, this figure also shows how a previously defined wheel (7) is located at the same end.

Siguiendo con los argumentos tecnicos de la figura anterior, la Figura 4 representa una vista inferior del elemento rascador (1), en la que se puede observar como en la cara o pared inferior del elemento rascador se ubican una serie de ranurados (14) de aspiration, ubicados linealmente, los cuales tienen una minima separation entre ellos a modo de nervios de tal manera que dicha superficie de aspiration no es continua, y de esta manera, esa superficie total de aspiracion es mas resistente frente a las posibles turbulencias generadas por el movimiento de brazo y los solidos levantados por las pletinas raspadoras (11). Es necesario definir que, tal como se puede observar en la figura, la section de este elemento rascador (1) no es continua, sino que decrece desde el centro del deposito hacia el extremo en contacto con la pared del deposito, al igual que la section de los ranurados (14) tambien es variable, y es decreciente segun se acerca al extremo en contacto con la pared, es decir, que los ranurados de aspiration tiene mayor superficie de suction en la zona central del deposito y menor en la zona del extremo. Este cambio gradual de section favorece la suction de los solidos y desperdicios aspirados. Finalmente en esta figura se puede observar la ubicacion en el extremo tanto del iman (3) como de la rueda (7).Following the technical arguments of the previous figure, Figure 4 represents a bottom view of the scraper element (1), in which it can be seen how on the face or bottom wall of the scraper element a series of grooves (14) of aspiration, located linearly, which have a minimum separation between them by way of nerves such that said surface of aspiration is not continuous, and in this way, that total surface of aspiration is more resistant against the possible turbulence generated by the arm movement and solids raised by scraper plates (11). It is necessary to define that, as can be seen in the figure, the section of this scraper element (1) is not continuous, but decreases from the center of the tank towards the end in contact with the wall of the tank, just like the The grooves section (14) is also variable, and it is decreasing as it approaches the end in contact with the wall, that is, that the suction grooves have a greater suction surface in the central area of the tank and smaller in the area of the extreme. This gradual change of section favors the suction of solids and aspirated waste. Finally in this figure you can see the location at the end of both the magnet (3) and the wheel (7).

Por ultimo, la Figura 5 representa un detalle de un corte transversal realizado al elemento rascador (1), en el que se observa como es un elemento lineal y tubular rectangular hueco (100), en cuya cara inferior dispone de los ranurados (14) a traves de los cuales se succiona y aspira los solidos o sustancias raspadas por la pletina raspadora (11) ubicada en la cara frontal y sujeta a ella por las bisagras (12). Ademas se observar como los contrapesos (13), tambien ubicados en la cara frontal, aseguran la correcta position de las pletinas (11) raspadoras y aseguran que ante unFinally, Figure 5 represents a detail of a cross-section made to the scraper element (1), in which it is observed as a hollow rectangular linear and tubular element (100), in whose lower face it has the grooves (14) through which the solids or substances scraped by the scraper plate (11) located on the front face and held therein by the hinges (12) are sucked and sucked. It will also be observed how the counterweights (13), also located on the front face, ensure the correct position of the scraper plates (11) and ensure that before a

problema vuelva a su position de contacto con el suelo o fondo del deposito. Por otro lado se observa como el iman (3) se ubica en el extremo y esta en contacto con la pared del deposito, al igual que se puede observar como la rueda (7), que como se ha visto con anterioridad se encuentra al menos en uno de los brazos y 5 preferentemente en el del elemento rascador (1), esta en contacto con el suelo y permite mejorar el desplazamiento de toda la estructura y a su vez permite asegurar una altura minima necesaria para que se genere la zona de aspiration segun avanza el elemento rascador (1).problem return to its position of contact with the floor or bottom of the deposit. On the other hand it is observed how the magnet (3) is located at the end and is in contact with the wall of the tank, just as it can be seen as the wheel (7), which as it has been seen before is at least in one of the arms and preferably in that of the scraper element (1), it is in contact with the ground and allows to improve the displacement of the entire structure and in turn allows to ensure a minimum height necessary for the aspiration zone to be generated according to advance the scraper element (1).
