Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for cleaning a pipeline with a downpipe, after which a drivable via a flexible shaft, in particular a coil spring Cleaning tool for removing pipe deposits in the pipe direction longitudinal feed is subjected, while at the same time for removal of the removal below the removal area flushing water into the pipeline with overpressure is injected in the outflow direction, the tube deposits with one to the outflow direction opposite longitudinal feed are removed, which is below the downpipe cleaning tool inserted into the pipeline from the feed direction front side is pulled.
  • Pipelines especially sewage and disposal lines, are contaminated and incrustation in their clear flow cross section, until the accumulated amounts of water can no longer drain and there is a backwater and related water damage comes.
  • To remedy this and one To prevent the pipe from becoming blocked or to be able to clear a blocked pipe again, there are already cleaning processes in which the deposits are processed mechanically and washed away. For this purpose, one is usually closed from above into a trap cleaning pipeline a serving as a cleaning tool, via a drivable Coil spring rotating chain slingshot introduced, the chain parts on the deposits drive in and work off the wall deposits.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of eliminating these deficiencies and a method of the type described at the beginning to indicate a rational and reliable cleaning Various pipelines guaranteed without the risk of blockage or backflow.
  • an appropriate device for performing this method is to be created become.
  • the invention solves this problem in that rinsing water also above the removal area flow into the pipeline and the cleaning tool designed as a milling cutter is driven in rotation from the rear side in the feed direction.
  • the removed ones can Contamination and deposits downstream through the already cleaned pipe string are conveyed out and there is no narrowing that could lead to constipation along the conveyor path of the pipe cross section more.
  • the rinsing water flowing off from above takes away the removal in the direction of flow with and the one injected downstream below the tool Pressurized water accelerates and completes this removal.
  • the deposits and Soiling is not processed in large parts, but relatively small, what the removal is much easier and a clean and complete application of the material guaranteed with the help of rinse water.
  • Pulling the milling cutter on the one hand and that of it Allow separate rotary drive with its correspondingly adjustable drive speed it also to adapt the milling process to the respective conditions, so that the cleaning is flawless and effective.
  • the cable-related The longitudinal feed of the milling cutter can also be sensitive to the respective pipe run tune, which makes pipe bends and other changes in direction easy the pipeline can be managed without obstructing the milling cleaning.
  • the degree of contamination and deposition Cleaning process in several steps with gradually increasing in diameter Milling performed and it can always be used for both a tube and tool-friendly Ensure the way of working.
  • a cleaning tool a known to the drive axis through the shaft connection rotationally symmetrical milling head is provided on its rear Front the shaft connection and one on its front end Has a towing eye, the milling head consisting of a rotating body as a milling body with a generatrix sloping in an arc towards the hitch consists of the shell side, preferably along helical lines running, cutting knife parts are worked out.
  • the milling head can be attached to the longitudinal feed at one end in a few simple steps with a cable pull and elsewhere on a coil spring or another flexible shaft for the rotary drive and allowed because of its convex basic shape, the processing of different thicknesses Deposits during the longitudinal feed, which convex basic shape in addition, proper processing of the deposits in the area of Pipe bends and Like. Allows.
  • the inclined to the axis of rotation, preferably helically extending cutting edges in addition to the necessary high removal effect also a removal effect for the processed material with it, which together with the rinse water for ensures a flawless, problem-free removal of the removal.
  • the milling body itself can be produced efficiently and results in a particularly robust and powerful cutters with a long service life.
  • the milling head for attaching to a traction rope on the one hand on the attachment eye of the milling head on the other hand connectable rotary coupling assigned to each other about an axis of rotation extending in the direction of pull has relatively rotatably mounted coupling parts. These can be rotated against each other Coupling parts prevent the rotation of the transmission from being transmitted Milling head on the traction rope and allows a perfect conveyance of the rotating milling head.
  • the waste water disposal system E of a building G has a pipeline 1 that open out into a ventilation shaft L and up Includes falling strand F transitioning into a horizontal strand H below.
  • a milling cutter 2 serving as a cleaning tool in the feed direction pulled by means of a cable 3 and from the rear in the feed direction Side via a drive device 4 by means of a coil spring 5 is driven in rotation.
  • the pipe 1 is at the top in the area of the ventilation shaft L and at the bottom opened in the area of a revision shaft R of the horizontal line H and made the pipe section to be cleaned accessible.
  • the coil spring 5 is connected to the drive device 4 for a speed-controlled Milling drive ensures, coupled and equipped with the milling cutter 2, the in turn attached to the traction cable 6 with the interposition of a rotary coupling 7 becomes.
  • the pull rope 6 is via a correspondingly adjustable gallows 8 the cable pull device 3 and can be by means of an associated motor winch 9 can be drawn in at a controllable feed speed.
  • the milling cutter 2 is driven by the drive device 4 and the coil spring 5 rotated, so that it is a milling cleaning comes.
  • rinse water via an upper water supply W flow into the pipeline 1 from above and below behind Milling cutter 2 by means of a pump unit integrated in the drive device 4 a nozzle body 11 inserted into the horizontal strand H is pressurized and in the outflow direction S flushing water W is injected into the pipeline 1 to be able to apply the removal.
  • the milling cutter 2 now mills on its opposite direction to the outflow direction S. Path through the pipe 1, the deposits A in small pieces, which Removal K immediately washed away in the direction of the already cleaned pipe string and there is therefore no risk of constipation or malfunction.
  • the Rotary coupling 7 between cutter 2 and cable 6, the two relative to each other Has rotatable coupling parts 12 prevents transmission of the rotary movement from the milling cutter 2 to the pull rope 6, which prevents the rope from being untwisted.
  • the milling cutter 2 is a milling head 13 with an in Direction of the longitudinal feed V substantially convex milling body 14 provided, one on the front end 15 in the feed direction Towing eye 16 for connecting the pull cable 6 or the rotary coupling 7 and on the rear end 17 a shaft connection 18 for coupling the coil spring 5 are arranged.
  • the milling body 14 consists of a rotating body with an arcuate sloping generatrix towards the towing eye 16 Z, around the drive axis D through the towing eye 16 and the shaft connection 18 rotates, from which body of revolution knife parts 19 on the casing side the cutting edges running along helical lines are worked out 20 form.
  • This milling head 13 results in an effective small piece Milling off the deposits A within the pipeline 1, the Milling head easily different due to the forward-facing convex shape processes heavy deposits and without affecting milling Changes in direction of the pipeline 1 can follow.
  • the cleaning method according to the invention ensures an efficient, line and tool-friendly and adaptable to the respective circumstances Cleaning a wide variety of pipes.
