Abstract
Description
Claims (12)
- Claim 1: A rainwater cleaning system comprising a pipe means having a closed end located on the floor of the tank and having an open end connectable to an outflow from the tank; located near the closed end of the pipe means is at least one hole, the cross sectional area of the hole at least equals the surface area of the outflow wherein the outflow includes an upwardly extending pipe portion fluidly connected to a pipe portion through the tank wall and the portion through the tank wall being fluidly connected to a downwardly extending pipe portion.
- Claim 2: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the pipe means has a number of holes, the combined cross-sectional area of the holes preferably equals the cross-sectional area of the outflow.
- Claim 3: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in Claim 1 wherein the pipe means has a number of holes, the combined cross-sectional area of the holes is preferably greater than the cross-sectional area of the outflow.
- Claim 4: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in any one of Claims 1 -3 wherein the combined cross-sectional area of the hole or holes equals the cross-sectional area of the outflow.
- Claim 5: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in any one of Claims 1 -4 wherein the combined cross-sectional area of the hole or holes is greater than the cross-sectional area of the outflow.
- Claim 6: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the outflow pipe has at least one anti-siphon means therein.
- Claim 7: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in claim 6 wherein the outflow pipe has at least one air hole which permits the ingress of air and prevents the siphoning of water from the rainwater tank.
- Claim 8: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in any one of the preceding claims wherein the pipe means comprises a single pipe located on the floor of the tank.
- Claim 9: A rainwater cleaning system as claimed in any one of claims 1-8 wherein the pipe means comprises a number of pipes located on the floor of the tank. 104857nz_pho_cip_2704/HC/JP -9-
- Claim 10: A kit for use as a rainwater cleaning system comprising a) a pre-drilled pipe or pipes adapted to be located with the base of the tank, b) an end cap or caps adapted to interfit with the pre-drilled pipe or pipes, 5 c) a pipe to rise up the inside and the outside of the tank, the pipe being adapted to be joined to the pre-drilled pipe(s), d) two right-angled bends adapted to join the pipe, e) PVC solvent glue to join the pipes and bends together f) a square of fine mesh located on the pipe outside the tank. 10
- Claim 11: A rainwater cleaning system substantially as herein described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
- Claim 12: A kit for use as a rainwater cleaning system substantially as herein described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 15 •VvK- Pipers 20 Attorneys for Warren Agnew _TH5tei l fp.tual FHOPERTY OFFICE] 104857nz pho_cip_2704/HC/JP | I 7 dec 200*1 RECEIVED -10- ABSTRACT A rainwater cleaning system for a water tank comprises a pipe means having a closed end located on the floor of the tank. The pipe means also has an open end connectable to an outflow pipe from the tank. Located nearer the closed end of the pipe rather than the open end of the pipe means is at least one hole. The cross sectional area of the hole preferably at least equals the cross sectional area of the pipe outflow. 104857nz_pho_cip_2704/HC/JP
