Description

本発明は資源回収用管を備えた水中資源回収装置に関する。本発明による水中資源回収装置は水中の生物資源又は植物資源の採取、或いは海底、湖底、及び川底の生物資源又は植物資源の採取或いは有機物資源又は無機物資源の採掘に適用可能である。   The present invention relates to an underwater resource recovery apparatus equipped with a resource recovery pipe. The underwater resource recovery apparatus according to the present invention is applicable to the collection of underwater biological resources or plant resources, or the collection of biological or plant resources from the seabed, lake bottom, and riverbed, or the extraction of organic or inorganic resources.

日本の国土は世界第60位であるが、日本の排他的経済区域の広さは世界第6位である。特に海底の有機物資源又は無機物資源を有効に活用する必要があるが、海底の深さや環境問題で課題があるのか未だ活用の実施はされていない。海底地盤の掘削を行うときに用いるライザーシステム(特4427441)及び海上に浮遊する海上構造物から垂下される蛇腹を具備する水中長大管(実用新案登録2593664)を従来提案されているが、環境破壊等に課題があるのか未だ実施及び実用化されていない。 Japan is the 60th largest country in the world, but Japan's exclusive economic area is the sixth largest in the world. In particular, it is necessary to make effective use of organic or inorganic resources on the seabed, but it has not been implemented yet whether there are problems with the depth of the seabed or environmental problems. The riser system (special 4427441) used when excavating the seabed ground and the underwater long pipe (utility model registration 2593664) provided with a bellows suspended from an offshore structure floating on the sea have been proposed. It has not been implemented or put into practical use yet.

第一及び第二の実施形態では、前記円形資源回収用管内の水面を前記円形資源回収用管外の水面より上部に移動させる水の容量は前記水排出用開口より排出する水の容量より比較的大きくなるべく円形資源回収用管上部の内外形を大きくし、前記円形資源回収用管中間部の内外径は上部と同じ内外径或いは徐々に小さな内外径にし、前記円形資源回収用管最下部の前記資源回収開口の内外径を生物資源或いは鉱物団塊が通過可能な程度に小さくする。小さくすると循環する水流を早めることが可能となり採取或いは採掘の効率がよい。前記資源回収開口を前記円形資源回収用管最下部に複数個具備する構成も考えられる。
なお、前記資源回収開口は下部開口を具備する筺体内に下部以外は密閉して内蔵され採取或いは採掘の際、環境に影響を与えないよう配慮されている。

前記円形資源回収用管内の水面を前記円形資源回収用管外の水面より上部に移動させる水の容量は前記水排出用開口より排出する水の容量より比較的大きくなるように円形資源回収用管の上部の内外形にすれば前記水排出用開口より空気が挿入することはない。また仮に空気が挿入されても円形内部貫通部材は中央開口を具備しているので、前記内部貫通部材を前記円形資源回収用管内の上部に移動する際、前記円形資源回収用管内の海面又は湖面或いは川面と前記内部貫通部材の下面とを介在する前記水排出用開口から挿入された空気を前記中央開口により吸引することが可能である。

In the first and second embodiments, the capacity of the water that moves the water surface in the circular resource recovery pipe to a position above the water surface outside the circular resource recovery pipe is compared with the capacity of the water discharged from the water discharge opening. The inner diameter of the upper part of the circular resource recovery pipe is increased as much as possible, and the inner and outer diameters of the intermediate part of the circular resource recovery pipe are set to the same inner and outer diameters as the upper part or gradually smaller inner and outer diameters. The inner and outer diameters of the resource recovery opening are made small enough to allow biological resources or mineral nodules to pass through. If it is made smaller, the circulating water flow can be accelerated, and the efficiency of sampling or mining is good. A configuration in which a plurality of the resource recovery openings are provided at the lowermost part of the circular resource recovery pipe is also conceivable.
The resource recovery opening is sealed in a casing having a lower opening, except for the lower part, so that it does not affect the environment during sampling or mining.
The lowermost part is a circular enclosure having a lower area and a lower opening. The structure is provided with a plurality of resource recovery openings that have an inner and outer diameter that is small enough to allow biological resources or mineral nodules to pass through, and that speeds up the circulation of water flow.

Resources can be easily extracted by providing resource excavation means or resource crushing means for excavating or crushing resources at the bottom or outside near the bottom of the circular resource recovery pipe, the bottom of the river, or the river bottom, or at the bottom and outside. Further, the resource excavating means or the resource crushing means and the resource recovery opening are sealed in a casing having a lower opening except for the lower part. Therefore, the excavated or crushed chips are sealed in the casing, and the mining efficiency is mined by the fast water flow circulated by the resource recovery opening having a small inner and outer diameter, so that the surrounding environment is not affected.
An embodiment in which an intermediate part of the resource recovery pipe is a flexible pipe, an embodiment in which the resource recovery pipes are overlapped and the length is adjusted with a pipe having a smaller inner and outer diameter toward the lower part, the resource The embodiment of the bellows tube that adjusts the length of the inner and outer diameters smaller as the recovery tube is moved to the lower part can be implemented. In the case of the three examples, the length can be adjusted and the lower part of the resource recovery tube can be operated. The resource excavating means or the resource crushing means is operated by an external operation member.
In that case, the resource excavating means or the resource crushing means is sealed and built in a housing having an upper portion penetrated by the lower part of the resource recovery pipe and the external operation member and having a lower opening, and excavated or crushed resources, etc. Since it is sealed in the housing and mined in the resource recovery pipe through the resource recovery opening, the surrounding environment is not affected.
When the resource excavation means is provided at the bottom of the circular resource recovery pipe at the bottom of the seabed or lake bottom or near the riverbed, the resource excavation means is configured to move, for example, on the slope from the top of a seamount in a relatively shallow sea area. In particular, a cobalt-rich craft having a high cobalt content is excavated, and the inorganic resources of the cobalt-rich craft are precipitated on the bottom surface of the circular resource recovery pipe through the resource recovery opening. Even when mining organic resources such as methane hydrate organic resources, rare earth mud, seawater hydrothermal deposits, etc., the resource is deposited on the bottom surface of the circular resource recovery pipe. When mining methane hydrate organic matter resources, it is also possible to implement a configuration in which an electric cooling device is provided on the lower surface of the circular resource recovery pipe.
Moreover, when the organic substance resource of methane hydrate is vaporized, the vaporized methane hydrate is recovered through the central opening of the circular internal penetrating member.
The air exhaust means may be configured to exhaust the air above the internal penetrating member with natural energy such as wind power, sunlight, and wave power.
Circular resource recovery pipe so that the capacity of water for moving the water surface in the circular resource recovery pipe to a position above the water surface outside the circular resource recovery pipe is relatively larger than the capacity of water discharged from the water discharge opening. If the inner shape of the upper part is made, air will not be inserted from the water discharge opening. Even if air is inserted, the circular internal penetrating member has a central opening. Therefore, when the internal penetrating member is moved to the upper part of the circular resource recovery pipe, the sea surface or the lake surface in the circular resource recovery pipe Alternatively, it is possible to suck air inserted from the water discharge opening through the river surface and the lower surface of the internal penetrating member through the central opening.
