Abstract:
A fishway to bypass a vertical descent with an upstream water inlet (2) and a downstream water outlet (3) and with basins (4) arranged between them substantially in a downstream direction (G), each of which has an inflow slot (5Z) and an outflow slot (5A) as vertical through-flow slots (5), and deflection means (6) to form a meandering passage, characterized in that the basins (4) each have a partially cylindrical inner basin wall (40) and that the successive basins (4a, 4b, 4c) are oriented against one another and offset laterally in such a way that the through-flow slots (5) run transversely to the direction of slope (G) and that the through-flow slots (5) each are bounded on both sides by a vertical partially cylindrical pipe (60) as a first deflection means (6) with a significantly smaller radius along the entire basin height relative to the radius of the inner basin walls (40).
