Abstract
A barrage with a function of collecting floating garbage on a water surface is provided. It includes a first dam body as a main body of the barrage provided with multiple built-in low water level drainage channels and high water level drainage channels, a second dam body provided with multiple notches for converging floating garbage on the water surface, a garbage collecting and storing equipment arranged between the first dam body and the second dam body and a solar power generating equipment. The garbage collecting and storing equipment maintains running of the garbage conveyor belt by utilizing electric energy provided by the solar power generating equipment, thereby collecting garbage in a garbage pool beside the barrage. It not only has conventional functions of the barrage, but also greatly saves cost of manually salvaging garbage and avoids water pollution caused by accumulation of garbage on the river surface.
