Description
- This application is a continuation of prior U.S. application Ser. No. 13/471 849, which was filed on May 15, 2012, which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 12/928 921, which was filed on Dec. 22, 2010, which is a continuation of prior U.S. application Ser. No. 11/921 068, filed Nov. 26, 2007, now abandoned, which was the National Stage of International Application No. PCT/IB2006/001467, filed May 24, 2006.
- The present invention relates to a lightweight protection element and filter of the mattress type, and in particular, though in a non-limiting manner, to a ballasted filtering mattress for protecting and covering terrain, more preferably a seabed.
- It is known from various documents, also including some from the same Applicant, to use flexible protection elements of parallelepipedal form in order to immobilize and protect, for example, underwater pipes, canal banks and beds. Those elements comprise a flexible external cover which coats a gabion which is constructed from metal material and is filled with a mixture composed of bitumen, sand and stones or pebbles, so as to obtain elements having a high unit weight. Those protection elements, once made up, must be lowered into water by means of handling machines, such as cranes, mechanical arms, and the like. In order to facilitate the above-mentioned laying, operations are known for producing mattress type protection elements comprising support elements which facilitate, when in use, the handling thereof.
- One of the main limitations of the elements of known type is constituted by their great thickness and their heaviness, which make the installation operations extremely complex and troublesome.
- Another limitation of the elements of known type is constituted by their limited overall dimensions, which are linked to the dimensions of the gabions and/or the forms which are used for constructing them.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a protection element and filter of the mattress type which has significantly reduced weight, which allows easier installation, which has overall dimensions which are variable in accordance with the type of application necessary and which can successfully constitute protection elements and a filter without longitudinal discontinuities, for example, but in a non-limiting manner, up to 200 linear metres.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a protection element and filter which is economical, easy and rapid to construct and which therefore allows a substantial saving in terms of the time and cost of installation.
- In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present invention relates to a lightweight protection element and filter of the mattress type as described below.
- One of the main advantages of the present invention is constituted in that the protection element further comprises a three-dimensional internal structure with a high cavity index, in which filler material is inserted, such as gravel, silt, finely crushed stone, or any other natural granular element which is available in situ. That advantageous feature avoids the need to create internal diaphragm openings for stabilizing the filler material.
- According to another particularly advantageous feature, the mattress type element also comprises a double layer of geotextile material, for example, an upper layer and a lower layer, which, being connected to the three-dimensional internal structure, allow the protection element to act as a filtering element and, at the same time, to remain fitted closely against the terrain to which it is applied owing to the ballast weight of the granular filler material.
- Further features and advantages will be appreciated from the following description of one of the preferred embodiments, with reference to the appended drawings, given purely by way of non-limiting example, in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a lightweight protection element and filter of the mattress type according to the present invention; and -
FIG. 2 is a schematic sectioned view along line A′-A′ of the element illustrated inFIG. 1 . - With reference now to the Figures, a lightweight protection element and filter of the mattress type according to the present invention comprises an external containment structure. The external containment structure comprises a lower portion, for example, a
bottom sheet 10, and an upper portion, for example, acover sheet 20. Both thesheets sheets - Preferably, a
reinforcement element 48, for example, a metal net and/or a geogrille, can be engaged with thebottom sheet 10 so as to increase the resistance to traction of the whole mattress. - Between the
lower portion 10 and theupper portion 20, there is arranged a three-dimensionalinternal structure 30 with a high cavity index, preferably a non-woven geotextile, even more preferably a three-dimensional structure comprising monofilaments of heat-sensitive material, for example, synthetic polymers and/or polyamides. In accordance with a particular embodiment of the present invention, the monofilaments of heat-sensitive material can be extruded onto the reinforcing metal net and/orgeogrille 48. - Granular filler material, for example, gravel, sand, silt, finely crushed stone or any other natural element which is preferably available in situ, is inserted inside the three-dimensional
internal structure 30 with a high cavity index. The granular filler material serves as an auxiliary in the filtering action of the three-dimensionaldraining structure 30, to maintain the thickness of the three-dimensional geosynthetic even under great loads and to weigh down the whole lightweight protection element and filter. - The
bottom sheet 10 and thecover sheet 20 are engaged with each other by way of engagement means, preferably of the mechanical type, for example, but in a non-limiting manner, a pair ofplates 50, or continuous strips, constructed from synthetic and/or metal materials. Theplates 50 are arranged, in an aligned, opposing state, on the external surfaces of thebottom sheet 10 and thecover sheet 20 and distributed over the surfaces in the region of respective openings formed in the surfaces of the twosheets plate 50 comprises a through-hole, inside which there is passed afixing bar 52 with athread 54, scarfed in theplate 50 or lower strip. Twoblocks 56 are screwed to theends 54 of thebar 52 so as to secure the position of the twoplates 50 along thebar 52 and to engage thebottom sheet 10 and thecover sheet 20 with each other. - Naturally, a person skilled in the art could develop, without any inventive step, different engagement means, mechanical or non-mechanical, with respect to those described above without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention.
- As is clearly visible in
FIG. 1 , the engagement means are distributed uniformly over the entire extent of thebottom sheet 10 andcover sheet 20 so as to bring about through-fastening of the protection element and filter. The ends of thesheets continuous seams 53 so as to close the protection element and filter and retain inside it the three-dimensional structure with a high cavity index and the filler material. - In accordance with another of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, the external containment structure of the protection element and filter comprises, for example, but in a non-limiting manner, a pouch or a container of synthetic or natural material, as described above, which is open at one side and inside which there is inserted the three-dimensional structure with a high cavity index and the filler material. Similarly, the open ends of the external structure are fixed to each other, for example, by means of
continuous seams 53 so as to close the protection element and filter and retain inside it the three-dimensional internal structure and the filler material. - In accordance with another of the embodiments of the present invention, the filler material may comprise fertile soil, seeds and/or other similar material, should the
sheets - The embodiments of the invention may change in accordance with the various dimensions and pieces of equipment of the finished mattresses. In particular, for finished mattresses of great linear extent, generally over from 6 to 7 metres in length, there can be used pontoons or rollers on which the elements roll, whilst for single shorter mattresses there can be used lifting frames of various forms and dimensions. In that last case, the
fixing bars 52 can be provided with engagement means, for example, end ring bolts, so as to be able to allow them to be connected to the lifting frame during the installation operations. - Naturally, the principles of the invention remaining the same, the forms of embodiment and details of construction may vary widely with respect to those described and illustrated without thereby departing from the scope of the invention.
