Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
Recently, frequent marine casualties have caused pollution and pollution of the sea by polluting the oceans with oil flowing from the vessels. In addition, suspended matter is continuously generated in rivers, rivers or wastewater purification facilities. Various devices have been developed to recover such effluents or suspensions. Among these devices, there are weir type skimmer and drum type skimmer as devices for recovering effluent oil, and techniques for recycling waste oil of oil tankers and the like and sucking the effluent oil directly to the ship are already utilized.
However, in particular, it is necessary to quickly remove the oil that is leaked in the event of a marine accident. Conventionally, it is necessary to spray the oil treatment agent to the polluted area by an airplane or a ship or to install an oil fence, Type skimmer or drum-type skimmer into the contaminated area to recover the effluent oil. Spraying the oil treatment agent causes another environmental pollution, and conventional weir type skimmer and drum type skimmer have a disadvantage in that the volume is generally large and the convenience of transportation is poor.
Therefore, it is urgent to develop a skimmer that can be quickly transported to the accident site.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an invention capable of maximizing the convenience of transportation by minimizing volume by simply detaching or folding the main buoyant body It has its purpose.
Further, according to the present invention, an auxiliary buoyant body (upper support) for providing independent buoyancy to the collecting part separately from the main buoyant body for providing the main buoyancy of the entire skimmer can be provided, The object of the invention is to provide the invention.
However, the objects of the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned objects, and other objects not mentioned can be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the following description.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a buoyant body which has a folding structure and is coupled to a support and a support so as to be detachable and which provides a main buoyant force, And a height adjuster for adjusting the height of the support body to adjust the position at which the buoyant body contacts the water surface.
Further, the support body and the buoyant body are coupled to each other in at least three directions, and the buoyant body is folded downward, and the buoyant body or the buoyant body is deployed so as to form an equilibrium or a certain angle with the water surface at the time of recovery.
In addition, the collecting part may include an upper support that provides an auxiliary buoyancy separate from the buoyant body, a buoyancy and a buoyancy of the upper support when the buoyant is recovered, And a lower support for supporting the bellows.
Further, the bellows is characterized by covering the upper and lower supports.
It is further characterized by further comprising a fixing section for fixing the support body and the lower support body.
The fixing portion includes a center rod for fixing the supporting body and the lower supporting body to each other along the central axis of the supporting body and the lower supporting body, a first, second, and third rods for fixing the supporting body and the lower supporting body in at least three directions, And the height adjusting portion is inserted and fixed inside the first, second and third rods so that the height of the support body is adjusted.
Further, the upper support body is characterized in that it is elastically moved up and down along the center rod by its own buoyancy.
The bellows is characterized by a circular cross section.
In addition, a filter is disposed between the upper support and the bellows to filter the foreign matter during the recovery of the effluent or suspended matter, in the circumferential direction of the upper support.
The upper support is also characterized by being hollow to provide buoyancy to the bellows.
Further, the support, the buoyant body, the upper support, and the lower support are made of polyethylene or polypropylene, and the bellows is made of rubber.
Further, the support body has protrusions that protrude and extend in at least three directions from the central region, and the buoyant body has a corresponding groove so as to fit the protrusions upon deployment.
The protruding portion is characterized in that an upper surface mounting portion on which the buoyant body corresponding to the buoyant body is deployed and a side seating portion for adjusting the folding angle when the buoyant body is folded are formed.
In addition, the plurality of buoyant bodies have a relatively narrow width in one region coupled with the protruding portion, and a relatively large surface area in contact with water as the area on the side contacting the water surface is wider than the coupled region Widening.
As described above, according to the present invention, since the volume of the skimmer is minimized, it is easy to carry, and it is easy to store the equipments on the ship, So that the skimmer can be quickly put into the apparatus.
According to the present invention, the main buoyant body and the auxiliary buoyant body form a constant height with the water surface at all times, thereby allowing the effluent to be stably sucked into the collecting part.
In addition, according to the present invention, since the height of the skimmer can be adjusted as needed, the position where the buoyant body touches the water surface can be conveniently adjusted, and thus the water content can be minimized.
According to the present invention, the main buoyant body has a large surface area to contact the water, so that the skimmer stably floats on the surface of the water, and the upper support of the oil collecting part moves up and down along the central axis, When the components are disassembled and stored, the volume can be minimized.
