Description

Chamber lock with offset from one another in the altitude Groups of saving pools. The purpose of the chamber lock according to the present invention the water saving, which is practically up to with the usual locks with saving basins can be up to about $ 7 percent to increase even further. The following are used for this Devices: i. the per se known arrangement of several against each other in their altitude staggered groups of savings basins, with only between the deeper ones Groups of savings basins and the chamber lock closure devices are provided, and the filling and emptying of the savings basin by opening and closing the access the outside air; 2. The utilization of the water outflow from the lock chamber work done in the saving basins and vice versa to generate air dilution and air compression, which increases the fill level in the savings basin and thus the water saving is also increased.

If with the well-known superimposed savings basins on the one hand or with the known arrangement of the storage tanks in two groups with one another offset altitude, on the other hand, increased water savings can be achieved should, the number of savings basins must be chosen large: after the previously known Execution method There are also a large number of closing devices for this purpose (Guards or valves) and filling shafts required, which are not only great costs require, but also give rise to leaks and water loss.

This is avoided by only using the pelvis of the lower lying ones Group for the purpose of filling and emptying in the usual way through locking devices, Filling shaft and circulation are finitely connected to the Schletisenkanimer, while the basin of the higher lying group through open filling slits finitely Gien the former in \ -erbincitui- stand and (lukewarm to connect each pool with the outside air by rollre or from it is lockable. Furthermore, to the '\ -ei-gr? Ißerulig the effect than further Embodiment over the savings basin two for the production of compressed and diluted Air certain auxiliary chambers are provided, from whose crappy pipes go out, which means a pipe with the saving basin and by means of a stirrer with the outside air are.

In the drawing, the invention is in two exemplary embodiments shown. Fig_ i shows a cross section of a chimney; nierschIense in the simpler one System without auxiliary chimney.

Fig. 2 and 3 are cross-sections of finite auxiliary chambers.

In Fig. I, only the basins b, and b .. with closing devices z, which, as usual, are built into the connection shaft w, the 'to the circulation ic leads. The circulation fit is finite four lock chambers through branch channels t in open connection. In contrast, basin b, basin b, and .the basin b3 from basin b., filled and emptied. For this purpose, the pools stand through always open curved slots s in connection with each other. The filling and emptying is done by opening and shutting off the connection with the outside air. It leads namely from the ceiling of the basin 6l the pipe r to the ceiling of the basin b; in this The three-way line is built into the pipe, which connects the two basins can be emptied and closed with the outside air.

Should now the basin first when emptying the lock channels b1 are filled, the basin b1 is first ventilated by means of the three-way elevator, b, but closed off from the outside air, then valve v is opened. From there your basin b, the air cannot escape, water cannot enter, on the other hand it flows through the slot s into the basin b1. If b1 is filled, it needs Hahn w to be placed only in such a way, now b, locked and b_ vented then b, fills up, while from b, nothing flows out due to poor ventilation can. After completion of the filling of b., this basin also becomes of clei air closed, then the valve v is closed, unc1 then the filling can of b3 and b4 can be done in the same way.

When emptying the hedges and filling the Schleusenkaininer the process is reversed accordingly. In this way, all savings basins Fill and empty in the correct sequence, although only one group has a locking device V is equipped; it is only the ventilation by means of the proportionate thin tube ä- and the cock z to regulate in the manner described. This pipe finite Dreilv egehalin is in Fig. i for the sake of clarity for the basin b1 and b, drawn.

The present invention aims at a further improvement the water saving due to the fact that when the water flows over from the lock chamber in the savings basin or the work done in reverse, partly to increase the Filling level iii the saving basin is used.

The setup made for this purpose is illustrated by Fig.2. To make it easier to understand, only simple savings basins B1 and B. are shown there. Above the uppermost savings basin Bi, two closed chambers 0 and L- are arranged, which are connected by the pipe f starting from the bottom of 0 and reaching close to the bottom of U. At first U is filled with water, 0 empty. From the ceiling of chamber U is the air pipe rt, led from the ceiling of chamber 0 the air pipe r "and from the ceiling of the spar basin B, the pipe r6 ; these three pipes are connected to a fourth pipe section rl, which leads to the outside air, merged into the four-way valve.

The N water of part A1 of the lock chamber is now to be transferred into the savings basin Bi. At the beginning, when the basin Bi is empty and the chamber part A1 is completely filled, the excess pressure is h. If (read the spar basin Bi, which is closed off from the outside air, is connected to your basin LT by means of the pipes r6 and rfl, then when the spar basin BL is filled, the air from it passes into the chamber U and presses the water it contains by means of the Tube f into chamber 0 above it. This overpressure lasts until the water level difference e between the lowered lock chamber and the partially filled saving basin equals the water level difference; between the emptied chamber t% and the filled hannner 0. Then the tube r "closed, the pipe rb, on the other hand, is connected to the outside air. Then the water flows from the lock chamber further into the Sparbekken B1 until the water level in both is reflected in line ii. Now it is still with air The filled part of the pool B1 is connected to the upper part of the chamber 0 by means of the pipes rb and r ", and the pipe r" is also used in connection with the outside air eight. As a result, the water in chamber 0 flows back into chamber Z ', and air is diluted in 0. so that the air is sucked out of the basin B1 through the pipes ro and rb, whereby more water passes from the lock chamber into the basin Dl. It rises to line cc, while in (ier lock chamber it sinks to line dd, so that finally the water level in basin B1 is higher by the amount k than in the lock chamber.

In the unreversed case, when emptying the savings hedges and filling the lock canals, the initial slope between the savings basin and the lock chamber is used to suck water from chamber U into chamber 0 the chamber 0 is fed back to the chamber U and the compressed air generated in U is used to push the water out of the spar basin so that the water level in the lock chamber rises above that in the spar basin \ N 'ater of the sluice chamber into the saving basins transferred and are fed back again when filling the lock chamber than it parbecken with ordinary open SS is mögich. 1 the two chambers 0 and V can be successively B are used for the filling and emptying of all saving basins, are therefore only required once. To connect the air spaces, the four pipe strings r b, r ", - r" and rl, which are merged in the four-way halo z, are required for each saving basin. You are in Xbb. 2, however, only for basin B, drawn for the sake of clarity.

The process when emptying the Schleusenkaininer and filling a saving basin is as follows: First rb is connected with r " ; after pushing the water from U to 0 it is terminated and rb is connected with r1; after mirroring between the Schleusenkainnier and the saving basin, r" becomes with rb connected and finally r " with rb. As soon as the saving basin B1 is completely filled, rb is closed. Then chambers 0 and U are ready to fill the next saving basin. When emptying the saving basin and filling the lock chamber, the processes are reversed accordingly.

In Fig. 3 is a cross section of the overall arrangement of a lock with all described savings facilities shown. The saving pools are well known Way arranged in two groups; The chambers are located above the uppermost savings basin 0 and U housed. A pipe string rb leads from each sub-basin to the tap z, by means of which a connection either through the pipe string r "with the chamber U -or through the pipe string r. with the chamber 0 or through the pipe string r, with the outside air can be switched on. For the sake of clarity are also in the Fig. 3 only shows the pipelines of chamber b1. 'With these facilities can achieve a @water saving of more than 90 percent of the lock filling will.
