Abstract
Abstract Arrangement for sucking-off gases, creating by means of water supplied to an annular nozzle surrounding the outlet of a gas conduit and forming a first hydraulic pump with a vortex, thereby mixing the gas and water thoroughly and sucking off the mixture by a second annular water nozzle into an ejector or second pump extending into a diffuser which terminates below the level of water in a vessel, where separation of the gas and water takes place.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
274 words
Arrangement for sucking-off air from an air-containing flowing fluid, comprising a first jet hydraulic pump having a first tubular body with an upper part constituting a first liquid chamber, conduit means supplying the first liquid chamber with liquid under pressure, a first air-containing fluid receiving and discharging conduit having a widened lower end disposed within the first liquid chamber with the outer edge of the widened lower end thereof spaced from the inner wall of the first liquid chamber to form a narrow annular gap therebetween acting as a nozzle to form a thorough, turbulent mixture of liquid and air-containing fluid, a second jet hydraulic pump disposed below the first jet hydraulic pump, the second jet hydraulic pump having a second tubular body with an upper part constituting a second liquid chamber, the lower end of the first tubular body extending into the second liquid chamber, the outer edge of the lower end of the first tubular body being spaced from the inner wall of the second liquid chamber to form a narrow annular gap therebetween, the second tubular body continuing downwardly below the end of the first tubular body and terminating at its lower end in a widened portion constituting a diffuser, conduit means for supplying the second liquid chamber with liquid under pressure, and an open-topped vessel within which the lower, diffuser-forming portion of the second tubular body is received, the vessel containing the mixture of air-containing fluid and the liquid forwarded thereto through the second tubular body to a level above the lower, diffuser-forming end of the second tubular body, air escaping from such mixture in the vessel to the atmosphere.

Arrangement for sucking-off air from an air-containing flowing fluid, comprising a first jet hydraulic pump having a first tubular body with an upper part constituting a first liquid chamber, conduit means supplying the first liquid chamber with liquid under pressure, a first air-containing fluid receiving and discharging conduit having a widened lower end disposed within the first liquid chamber with the outer edge of the widened lower end thereof spaced from the inner wall of the first liquid chamber to form a narrow annular gap therebetween acting as a nozzle to form a thorough, turbulent mixture of liquid and air-containing fluid, a second jet hydraulic pump disposed below the first jet hydraulic pump, the second jet hydraulic pump having a second tubular body with an upper part constituting a second liquid chamber, the lower end of the first tubular body extending into the second liquid chamber, the outer edge of the lower end of the first tubular body being spaced from the inner wall of the second liquid chamber to form a narrow annular gap therebetween, the second tubular body continuing downwardly below the end of the first tubular body and terminating at its lower end in a widened portion constituting a diffuser, conduit means for supplying the second liquid chamber with liquid under pressure, and an open-topped vessel within which the lower, diffuser-forming portion of the second tubular body is received, the vessel containing the mixture of air-containing fluid and the liquid forwarded thereto through the second tubular body to a level above the lower, diffuser-forming end of the second tubular body, air escaping from such mixture in the vessel to the atmosphere.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
An arrangement according to claim 1, wherein the liquid supplied to the first and second liquid chambers through their respective conduit means is water.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
274 words
Arrangement for sucking-off gases from containers, comprising a first jet hydraulic pump having a first tubular body with an upper part constituting a first liquid chamber, first conduit means supplying the first liquid chamber with liquid under pressure, a first, gas-conducting conduit having a widened lower end disposed within the first liquid chamber with the outer edge of the widened lower end thereof spaced from the inner wall of the first liquid chamber to form a narrow gap therebetween acting as a first nozzle to form together with turbulent processes in the first mixing chamber's thorough mixing of liquid and gas, the widened lower end of the gas-conducting conduit constituting a diffuser, a further conduit disposed beneath the first mixing chamber and communicating with the lower end thereof, a vessel in which the lower end of the further conduit is received, the vessel containing the mixture of air-containing fluid and the liquid forwarded thereto through the further conduit to a level above the lower end of the further conduit, air escaping from such mixture in the vessel to the atmosphere, the further conduit defining the mixing chamber of a second hydraulic pump disposed between the first mixing chamber of the first jet hydraulic pump, the upper part of said further tubular body constituting a second liquid chamber, the lower end of the first tubular body extending into the second liquid chamber, the outer edge of the lower end of the first tubular body being spaced from the inner wall of the second liquid chamber to form a narrow annular gap therebetween, and conduit means for supplying the second liquid chamber with liquid under pressure.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
274 words
Arrangement for sucking-off gases from containers, comprising a first jet hydraulic pump having a first tubular body with an upper part constituting a first liquid chamber, first conduit means supplying the first liquid chamber with liquid under pressure, a first, gas-conducting conduit having a widened lower end disposed within the first liquid chamber with the outer edge of the widened lower end thereof spaced from the inner wall of the first liquid chamber to form a narrow gap therebetween acting as a first nozzle to form together with turbulent processes in the first mixing chamber's thorough mixing of liquid and gas, the widened lower end of the gas-conducting conduit constituting a diffuser, a further conduit disposed beneath the first mixing chamber and communicating with the lower end thereof, a vessel in which the lower end of the further conduit is received, the vessel containing the mixture of air-containing fluid and the liquid forwarded thereto through the further conduit to a level above the lower end of the further conduit, air escaping from such mixture in the vessel to the atmosphere, the further conduit defining the mixing chamber of a second hydraulic pump disposed between the first mixing chamber of the first jet hydraulic pump, the upper part of said further tubular body constituting a second liquid chamber, the lower end of the first tubular body extending into the second liquid chamber, the outer edge of the lower end of the first tubular body being spaced from the inner wall of the second liquid chamber to form a narrow annular gap therebetween, and conduit means for supplying the second liquid chamber with liquid under pressure.
