HYBRID INTAKE SCREEN ASSEMBLY

An intake screen assembly including an intake member, a screen support member, and a screen member coupled to the screen support member. The screen member may be formed from a material, such as copper-nickel, that is different from a material, such as stainless steel, used to form the intake member and/or the screen support member. The intake screen assembly may include corrosion protection members for preventing contact between the components of the screen assembly that are formed from dissimilar materials. The assembly may be formed by coupling the screen support member to the intake member, and coupling the screen member to the screen support member.

Rack and pinion drive for trash rake
09539528 · 2017-01-10 · ·

There is disclosed a trash rake system for use in clearing debris from an intake screen of an intake trash rack of a water intake port of a water use facility. The intake screen is configured to collect debris transported by water, for example, a river, to prevent the debris from entering the intake port of the water use facility. The trash rake system includes a track system, a movable support structure, a rack and pinion drive mechanism, and a controller configured to receive signals from an encoder on a drive motor and a proximity sensor system.

Portable, reusable, high-stability, clog-resistant, universal-application, adjustable-volume non-filtration flow regulation device and system for sedimentation control related applications
12584282 · 2026-03-24 ·

An erosion prevention and sedimentation control flow-regulation device and system is provided for all customary applications addressed by conventional filtration devices such as check-dams (ditch check, channel or culvert), inlets (curb and ground), slope (hillside), perimeter control and settling and other ponds. The flow-regulation device and system is comprised of two components: (1) a heavy, irregular-shaped, hard-wearing, non-filtering, high-porosity fill media encapsulated in a heavy-duty, high-tensile mesh (the high-porosity particle mix component), and (2) an optional sheet-like synthetic geotextile material with limited permeability (the low-permeability choker component). The high-porosity particle mix component allows much larger flows of water through the device and system. The low-permeability choker component constricts or chokes the flow of water into the high-porosity particle mix component. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
