Abstract

1,274,206. Floating barriers. W. H. SANDFORD. 2 April, 1970 [3 Jan., 1969; 15 Oct., 1969; 30 Dec., 1969], Nos. 46887/68; 50604/69 and 63170/69. Heading E1H. A boom to control floating oil includes a tubular portion 1 and a skirt 2 formed by folding a rectangular length of plastics, or rubber, coated fabric longitudinally and welding the two halves together in a region 15. The portion 1 is closed at its ends and divided into pockets 5 by folded partitions 3, 4 made of said fabric and secured and sealed at the edges by welding. Ballasting is effected by either a chain 17, 18 or a rope attached to eyelets 8 by ties 19. The pockets are inflated with air through nozzles 6. Eyelets 9 and shackles on the chain facilitate connection of the boom at its ends to a similar boom. The partitions 3 may be dispensed with, the two halves of the fabric being in that case welded to each other along their free edges, Figs. 3, 4, 6 and 7 (not shown). The partitions 4 may also be dispensed with, the pockets being formed instead by welding the said halves together in appropriate places. The portion 1 and skirt 2 may be formed by welding two rectangular pieces of said fabric to each other.
