Patent AU-568396-B2 (AU)
Title: Improved pipe flushing device
Inventor: TASH GEORGE
IPC: E03C1/304
Filed: 1984-08-20
Granted: 1987-12-24
Abstract: The improved pipe flushing device comprises an elongated, elastomeric, hollow tubular member having a middle portion free to expand radially under water pressure. The rear Inlet end of the tubular member is fitted with a hose connector, while the narrow front outlet end of the tubular member contains a valve which opens upon expansion of the middle portion. The valve has a cage bearing a rear plate closure, and open sides and front. The rear plate is received in a transverse groove in the outlet, which groove is of a greater length than the thickness of the plate. The cage is gripped and held in a fixed position while the tubular member is in the relaxed unexpanded state. However, when the device is inflated by water pressure from a water hose connected to the inlet connector while in a water pipe, the middle portion thereof expands to meet the wall of the pipe. When the expansion is complete, the cage moves back in the outlet, the plate moving resrwardly in the groove to cause a mechanical vibration in the tubular member and water pipe. Waterthen by-passes the plate and passes through and out of the cage as a jet to break up a sewage clog. Upon expulsion of the jet, the middle portion contracts and the valve moves forward and closes, again causing sonic vibrations in the tubular member and water pipe. The expansion and contraction of the tubular member rapidly alternate to rapidly pulse water jets and vib ate the pipe to unclog the pipe.

Date Mar. 14, 1996A method and apparatus for recovering fine solids from a liquid feed suspension is disclosed. The apparatus has an operating cycle including a concentration part of the cycle in which solids present in the feed suspension are concentrated and a backwash part of the cycle in which supply of feed suspension to the concentrator is interrupted, the concentrator comprises a shell (11), and a plurality of elastic, hollow, microporous, polymer fibers (12) being fixed at their ends within the shell (11). Pressurized feed suspension is supplied to the outside of the fibers during said concentration part of the cycle and the filtrate may be withdrawn from the fiber lumens during the operating cycle. During the backwash cycle the concentration part of the cycle is terminated by ceasing supply of feed to said exterior surface of the fibers (12). The shell (11) is then sealed and the remaining filtrate removed from the lumens. A source of fluid under pressure is then applied to said lumens before, at the same time as, or just after opening the shell (11) to atmosphere, to cause explosive decompression through the walls of the fibers (12) whereby the fluid under pressure passes through said walls. The pressure level in said lumens is maintained at a predetermined value for a sufficient time following said decompression to cause substantial portions of solids lodged within and/or on the fiber walls to be dislodged. The dislodged contaminant matter is then washed away by the application of a flow of liquid over the surface of the fiber walls; and the concentration part of the operating cycle is recommended by introducing the supply of feed suspension to said exterior surface of said fibers (12).
