Abstract
A floating-type sandy beach growing device includes wave absorbing bodies arranged in parallel at appropriate intervals, each of them including a floating body having an offing side end oriented toward offing side and a land side end having a larger buoyancy and oriented toward land side, rocking following a wave vertical movement, offing side end being pivotally supported, and a stand erected in a relatively shallow shore for pivotally supporting offing side end, floating body being level-adjusted so as to be horizontal during low tide in neap tide, and installed angled with respect to wave progress direction in a horizontal plane.
Claims3
A floating-type sandy beach growing device constituted by
- a plurality of wave absorbing bodies arranged in parallel with one another at appropriate intervals, each of said wave absorbing bodies comprising a floating body having an offing side end oriented toward an offing side and a land side end having a buoyancy larger than that of said offing side end and oriented toward a land side, said offing side end being pivotally supported to provide rocking following a vertical movement of a wave,
- a floating body stand erected in water and pivotably connected to said offing side end of said floating body to pivotally support said offing side end, and
- a receiving stand comprising a horizontal member and supporting members extending downward from said horizontal member to reach a sea bed, said receiving stand being installed under said land side end of said floating body at a predetermined distance from said floating body stand, to receive said land side end of said floating body on said horizontal member when said land side end rotates toward a sea bed to prevent said land side end from being buried in the sea bed, and
- wherein said floating body is adjusted to be oriented in a horizontal direction during low tide in a neap tide, and installed so as to be angled with respect to a wave progress direction in a horizontal plane.
