Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of removing material lying under water, said material being lifted in a rising stream containing water and material and adjoining a downcoming stream containing water.
  • Such a method is known.
  • the matter is loosened by downwardly directed jet lances and sucked up by a suction pipe.
  • the jet lances produce a non-controlled whirl which pushes the suspended matter in all directons and hence also to places treated earlier. This is particularly inconvenient when a surface of, for example, a filter bed has to be cleaned, for example, when material to be removed is lying on said filter bed.
  • the invention has for its object to remove subaqueous matter in an improved, controlled maaner.
  • the downcoming stream or the rising stream envelops the other and has mainly the shape of a sheath.
  • the invention relates to and provides a device as defined in claim 6.
  • a helical rising stream is produced, which is located inside a helical downcoming stream.
  • the means for producing the streams preferably comprise a propeller having two concentric blade crowns.
  • a downwardly directed, helical stream 4 is produced by producing means 5 of a device 6 embodying the invention.
  • This downcoming stream agitates the material 1 and fluidizes the same.
  • the downcoming stream 4 goes over into a helical rising stream 7 in which the material 1 with the water 2 is lifted by cyclonic effect as fas as into a transport stream 8 conducting the material 1 away.
  • This transport stream 8 may be a river or a tide or it may be pruced by a ship's screw.
  • the producing means 5 of the device 6 comprise a propeller 9 which is rotatably driven in the direction of the arrow 10 and which comprises two concentric crowns of blades 11 and 12.
  • the outer blades 11 are relatively short, but their number is high and they produce a practically closed sheath of a helical downcoming stream 4, inside which is located the rising stream 7, which is produced by a considerably smaller number of long blades 12.
  • the propeller 9 is located at a considerable distance above the material 1.
  • compressed air is supplied from a source through a central pipe 14 connected with a ring pipe 15.
  • This ring pipe 15 has outlet ports distributed along the circumference through which air is injected into the downcoming stream 4. This air has a strong lifting effect when it gets into the rising stream 7 with the material and water.
  • the device 16 of Figures 2 4 comprise a vessel 17 to which a frame 20 is suspended by means of a hoisting cable 18 of a winch 19.
  • a frame 20 In the frame 20 are rotatably journalled two propellers 9, which are driven in opposite senses indicated by arrows 10 by a motor 21.
  • To the frame 20 are fastened two ring pipes 15 concentric with the propellers 9.
  • the ring pipe is provided with nozzles 22 distributed along the circumference, out of which flows compressed air which is injected into the downcoming stream 4 of water produced by the blades 11 located just above the same.
  • the crowns of blades 11 and 12 are separated from one another by an annular partition 23.
  • the angular position of the inner blades 12 is adjustable, since these blades can tilt about a horizontal axis 24 and are fixably arranged in the propeller by means of shafts 25.
  • a screening frame 13 is fastened to the frame 20 as shown in Figures 2 to 4, inside of which frame 13 are produced two downcomer streams 4 and inside thereof the rising streams 7. Since the propellers 9 rotate in opposite senses, the torques exerted on the frame 20 neutralize one another.
  • Figure 2 shows the transport stream 8, which carries along the suspension 26 of the rising stream 7.
  • the frame 20 is suspended to winches 28, which are controlled in dependence on an echo sound 29 for assessing the depth of the bottom 3. If the bottom 3 is sloping in the direction of movement 30 of the vessel 17 and the slope of the producing means 5 are adjusted, in anticipation of the varying depth b, in the position shown by broken lines in Figure 2.
  • the echo sound 29 controls the winches 19 and 28 through control-means 34.
  • accurate depth setting meters 32 can be arranged on the screening frame 13 for accurately measuring the distance c from the material 1 to be removed from the bottom 3.
  • a lifting device 33 For moving the assembly into and out of the water 2 a lifting device 33 is provided.
  • a compressor 35 On board of the vessel 17 a compressor 35 is connected through a hose 36 with the ring pipe 15.
  • the hoisting cable 18 not only the hose 36 but also the electric or hydraulic duct 38 are wound on or off, said members connecting the motors 21 to a source of energy 37.
  • the speed of rotation and/or the angular position of the blades 12 can be set in order to lift the material 1 to the optimum extent, that is to say, to remove it as fast as possible.
  • the speed of the vessel 17 is chosen so that the material 1 is removed to the desired extent.
  • diameter of propeller 9 3 metres
  • speed of revoluton of the propeller 100 to 110 rev/min
  • the air rate 8 ms 3 /min
  • the distance a 2.25 metres.
  • the blade angle d between the inner blades 12 and the horizontal plane may lie between 5° and 20°.
  • the corresponding angle e of the blades 11 may be of order of magnitude of 30°.
