Abstract

A cyclonic power wash system (10) uses high pressure, high temperature water for cleaning flat, concrete or asphalt surfaces. Sprayed water is reclaimed by vacuuming it through holes (63) in a reclamation ring (62) of the mobile cyclone sprayer (50), filtering the vacuumed water and returning it to a storage tank (20) for re-use by the system (10). Filtration tank (400) filters out large matter in an inlet trough (420) and smaller matter in a plurality of cascading chambers (430). Rotary union (100) in the sprayer (50) prevents the water, passing from the inlet (140) of the rotary union (100) to the discharge thereof by pressing together a pair of hard, durable sealing surfaces (125, 165), for example, silicon carbide, one of which is non-rotatably slidingly received in an upper recess (115) of the union's fixed housing (130) and the other, affixed to a spindle (170) rotatably received and retained in a lower recess (145) of the housing (130).

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 10 March 1995 (10.03.95); original claims 1 and 2 amended; remaining claims unchanged (1 page)]
1. A cyclonic power wash system using high pressure water for selectively cleaning flat surfaces in which the system includes a water storage means for holding water to be used for cleaning, a water pumping system for pumping and pressurizing the water from the storage means and a water cyclone sprayer for spraying the water onto the surfaces characterized by: a water reclamation and filter recycling system for reclaiming and filtering the sprayed water and recycling the filtered water back into the water storage means so that it can be further used for cleaning by the power wash system.
2. The cyclonic power wash system of claim 1 further characterized by: a water heating system for heating the water to a high temperature.
3. The cyclonic power wash system of claim 1 wherein the water reclamation and filter recycling system are characterized by: a hollow water reclamation ring attached to the bottom side of the water cyclone sprayer having a plurality of holes on a bottom side of the ring through which the sprayed water is reclaimed; a water filtration tank for filtering the reclaimed water; a first water transport coupling the water reclamation ring to the water filtration tank;
