Garbage Collection and Cleanup Drive


I designed mechanical carts to clean coastlines, oceans, seas, rivers and other bodies of water. See drawing below. Cart no. 1 can be pushed by water crafts or even persons to make the drum spindle turn clockwise as it run through the water and the debris. The theory is that the debris collected will be drawn to the rear end and will gradually settle down the bottom of the cart. Inclined chambers are provided so that the debris will stay at the back when the water is agitated by the waves. The alternative is a motorized spindle that can alter the design. Cart no. 2 can be pulled by vehicles or persons to make the drum spindle turn clockwise as it tracks the sand and the debris. The theory is that the debris will be collected by the spikes and dropped into the wire mesh cart. You can call it beach comber. The concept is from golf where they have carts that collect golf balls.
