Abrégé

A system for cleaning rivers and waterways in general includes a plurality of floating or non-floating modules configured to rotate at least due to the effect of the thrusting action exerted by the water, and constraining elements configured to constrain two or more of the modules to be substantially aligned with one another along at least one main direction. The constraining elements are configured to ensure that a minimum clearance is provided between each module and an adjacent module, so that the modules do not come in contact with each other during their normal operation, and so that each module, due to its own rotation, pushes waste toward an adjacent module.

Abrégé

The invention is a system (100) for cleaning rivers and waterways (F) in general, comprising a plurality of floating or non-floating modules (20) configured to rotate at least due to the effect of the thrusting action (W) exerted by the water, constraining means (10) configured to constrain two or more of said modules (20) so that they are substantially aligned with one another along at least one main direction (X), and wherein said constraining means (10) are configured in such a way as to ensure that a minimum clearance is provided between each of said modules (20) and the adjacent module, so that said modules (20) do not come in contact with each other during their normal operation and that each of said modules (20), through its own rotation, pushes waste towards one of the adjacent modules (20).

Abrégé

A system for cleaning rivers, channels and water courses in general includes floating modules, each having a cavity and an opening that puts the inside of the cavity in communication with the outer environment, and members that position the module so that the opening is at the height of the surface of a water body to be cleaned.

Abrégé

System (1) for cleaning rivers, channels and water courses (F) in general comprising floating modules (10), where each module (10) comprises a cavity (12) and an opening (13) which puts the inside of said cavity (12) in communication with the outer environment, and means for positioning said module (10) so that said opening (13) is at the height of the surface of the water body to be cleaned.

Abrégé

The invention concerns a system (1) for cleaning rivers and watercourses (F) in general comprising a plurality of floating modules (10) and anchoring means (30) to constrain said floating modules (10) to at least one fixed point so that they are aligned along a line (X) generally transversal to the direction (W) of the water flow. Each of said floating modules (10) comprises at least one sliding surface (11) configured to form, together with the sliding surfaces (11) of other said aligned floating modules (10), a sliding path (12) which crosses the watercourse transversely, along which, the material floating on the water flows towards at least one collection area (20).

Abrégé

A system for cleaning rivers and waterways in general includes one or more floating modules, each having a floating body and a rotating body provided with projecting elements configured to be positioned on the water surface, so that, when the rotating body rotates due to the thrusting action of the water current, the projecting elements move floating debris in a direction determined by its rotation direction towards an accumulation or recovery area.
