(54) DEVICE FOR CUTTING AND COLLECTING LEAVES FROM FLEXIBLE MEDIUM. . (57) The invention relates to devices for cultivating algae, and more specifically for collecting them from artificial carriers - substrates. The aim of the invention is to increase the efficiency of leaf separation and reduce their damage, simplify the design, as well as reduce stress

Undead. The efficiency of leaf separation is achieved due to the fact that the mechanism 2 for the longitudinal transport of the carrier 3 of algae is complete in the form of an endless traction organ, for example, chain conveyors 10, on the links of which I I pins are mounted to fasten the carriers; The shearing apparatus 4 consists of two spring-loaded parts, the cutting edges 5 of which form a slot in the closed position, an opening for the passage of carriers. At the moment of passing through this hole, the pins 1I of the part of the shear apparatus are diluted to the sides due to the wedge 16, which interacts with the entry bevelled portions. The leaves from the carriers 3 (substrates) are cut off by the cutting edges 5 and dumped onto a belt conveyor. 1 hp f-ly, 7 ill.

WITH

I The invention relates to agricultural enterprises, and more specifically to devices for the cultivation and collection of algae. The purpose of the invention is to increase the efficiency of leaf separation and reduce their damage, simplify structures and reduce effort (cutting.

I Figure 1 shows the device, id on the side; figure 2 is the same, top view; on fig.Z - cutting apparatus: the case; 4 shows a view of FIG. 3; : € a figure 5.6 - a wedge with fasteners (pins or hooks) of the carrier (substrate) of algae; 7 shows the design of the device in a vertical arrangement.

A device for cutting and collecting leaves, mainly algae from artificial carriers -: ubstrats, contains a mechanism 2 installed on frame 1 for transporting carrier 3 in its longitudinal position, cutting off a shield 4, made in the form of two cutting edges provided with cutting edges 5 transporting mechanism, spring-loaded parts 6, means for diluting and mixing the latter, as well as a device for removal and accumulation of leaves, which can be made respectively in the form of a tape tr the exporter 7 and the hopper 8. The cutting edges 5 in the closed position form an opening 9 for the passage of the carrier 3.

The mechanism for the longitudinal transport of the carrier is complete in the form of an infinite closed traction body, for example chain conveyors 10, on the links of which the fastening elements of the carriers 3 are placed in a tensioned

Addition. These fastening elements can be made in a pair of pins 11 for the hinges 12 of the carrier.

Parts of the shearing apparatus 4 under the springs in the direction of their closing, for example, are placed in a housing 13 fixed on a frame 1 with compression springs 14 and have lead-in sections 15 displaced from the cutting edges 5 (down).

The means for diluting and converting parts of the cutter of this apparatus is a combination with the carrier attachment element, i.e. pins I 1, wedge 16 followed by straight

section 17, 7 interacting with the start sections 15. In this case, the wedge can be not only from the front, but “back along the conveyor. The wedge 16 is fastened to the link of the chain conveyor 10 by means of pins threaded into the holes 18 of the bracket 19. The cutting edges 5 are formed on the cone-shaped protrusions 20 directed towards the movement of the traction device (conveyor).

The chain conveyors 10 and belt conveyor 7 have tension sprockets 21.22 and drive drums 23.24. Racks 25 with rollers 26 are used to eliminate sagging of the belt and conveyor chains. The device has a capacity of 27 for untreated substrates and a hopper 8 for collecting algae 28. The device is driven by a drive 29.

During operation of the device, the operator (pos. 30) with the help of the loop 12 fastens the front end of the carrier 3 onto the pins 11 and, keeping it in the tensioned position during the movement of the conveyor, puts on the next pin 1G the end loop 12. Elements substrate mountings are preset at a distance that provides the required degree of substrate tension, i.e. so that the latter does not bend.

When the wedge 16 meets the lead-in sections 15 of the shearing unit 4, they are separated to one side, the pins 11 and the hinges 12 pass, and then close, forming a working opening for the sub-: stratum from the cutting edges 5. In this case, the cutting edges 5 cut off the algae flis and with their tapered part throw them to the sides and onto the conveyor belt 7, which brings them to the bunker 8.

Leaf-cleared substrates are removed by the operator from pins 11 and sent to re-grow algae.

A device for cutting and collecting algae from artificial substrates can be installed both on the shore and on the watercraft.

The proposed device can be made either in a horizontal position or in an inclined one, as well as in a vertical arrangement (Fig. 6), but without the use of a conveyor 7, since it is not needed for a vertical arrangement of the device. Cut algae fall into the tank under its own weight.
