Abstract

The collector consists of a floating chamber (1) that can slide up and down on vertical guides (3) with changes in the water level. It has a front opening flap (2) and a base with hinged mesh doors, made with dimensions and from materials to suit its environment and situation. The opening flap is made from separate panels with floats opposite their hinges, and the door mesh is designed to retain floating objects when the chamber is out of the water. The top of the chamber has lifting points for raising it out of the water for emptying.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

La présente invention concerne un système autonome capable de recueillir et de conserver, dans son enceinte, tout corps flottant à la surface d'un plan d'eau, tel qu'un étang, un lac ou un port, et ceci en s'adaptant aux différences de niveau d'eau de ces derniers.  The present invention relates to an autonomous system capable of collecting and preserving, within its enclosure, any body floating on the surface of a body of water, such as a pond, a lake or a port, and this by adapting differences in the water level of these.

Les objets flottants, tels que déchets plastiques, bois, algues,..., ont tendance à s'amalgamer et constituer des nappes qui se déplacent au grès des vents et des courants, pour venir envahir les angles rentrants d'infrastructures fixes, telles que quais, ou flottantes tels que pontons.  Floating objects, such as plastic waste, wood, algae, ..., tend to amalgamate and form sheets which move with the sandstone of the winds and currents, to come to invade the re-entering angles of fixed infrastructures, such than docks, or floating such as pontoons.

Le système est donc mis en place dans ces zones où le courant pousse les déchets, permettant de récupérer ceux-ci dans son intérieur, empêchant leur sortie par un système de clapet décrit plus bas.  The system is therefore set up in these areas where the current pushes the waste, allowing it to be recovered inside, preventing its exit by a valve system described below.

Le système est composé d'une partie flottante, coulissant sur des guides verticaux fixes.  The system consists of a floating part, sliding on fixed vertical guides.

La partie flottante est un dièdre à base triangulaire (1) dont les formes (valeurs des angles) et dimensions (longueurs des côtés), s'adaptent au lieu de son installation.  The floating part is a dihedral with a triangular base (1) whose shapes (values of angles) and dimensions (lengths of the sides), adapt to the place of its installation.

Des volumes de flottabilité (5) garnissent l'intérieur du système pour lui assurer un tirant d'air permanent et une réserve de flottabilité (6) pallie aux surcharges imprévues.  Buoyancy volumes (5) line the interior of the system to provide it with a permanent draft and a buoyancy reserve (6) overcomes unforeseen overloads.

Le dessus est une surface pleine.  The top is a solid surface.

Les deux côtés faisant face aux guidages sont des surfaces pleines.  The two sides facing the guides are solid surfaces.

Le troisième coté possède une large ouverture coupée par la surface de l'eau, et une barrière  The third side has a large opening cut by the surface of the water, and a barrier

<Desc/Clms Page number 2><Desc / Clms Page number 2>

flottante (2) fonctionnant comme un clapet, interdisant aux objets prisonniers de ressortir.  floating (2) functioning as a valve, preventing trapped objects from coming out.

Deux bandes de matériau synthétique souple (10) finissent de raccorder le profil du système aux parois verticales de l'infrastructure afin d'éviter le stockage naturel des déchets flottants derrière le système. Two strips of flexible synthetic material (10) finish connecting the profile of the system to the vertical walls of the infrastructure in order to avoid the natural storage of floating waste behind the system.

Le système est installé sur des guides verticaux (3) fixés sur les infrastructures, lui assurant son maintien en position et son déplacement vertical (variation de niveau d'eau) grâce des dispositifs roulants (4) sur ces guides verticaux.  The system is installed on vertical guides (3) fixed on the infrastructures, ensuring its maintenance in position and its vertical displacement (variation of water level) thanks to the rolling devices (4) on these vertical guides.

Les dispositifs roulants peuvent, à tout moment, être désolidarisés du système, et ce depuis l'infrastructure, pour le manutentionner par des anneaux (9) prévus à cet effet, afin de le vider.  The rolling devices can, at any time, be separated from the system, and this from the infrastructure, to handle it by rings (9) provided for this purpose, in order to empty it.

Le fond du système est composé de deux panneaux articulés (7) en tôle ajourée ou grillage maille fine, afin d'évacuer l'eau lors de la sortie du système et de conserver les objets avant vidage.  The bottom of the system is made up of two articulated panels (7) made of perforated sheet metal or fine mesh netting, in order to evacuate the water when leaving the system and to keep objects before emptying.

L'ouverture et la fermeture des panneaux de fond s'effectuent par des targettes (8).  The opening and closing of the bottom panels is carried out by bolts (8).

Les matériaux choisis seront adaptés à l'environnement de l'installation, et surtout résistants à la corrosion de manière naturelle (acier inoxydable, alliage d'aluminium, matière synthétique recyclée ou non), ou traités en conséquence. The materials chosen will be adapted to the environment of the installation, and above all resistant to corrosion in a natural way (stainless steel, aluminum alloy, synthetic material, recycled or not), or treated accordingly.
