The invention relates to a method for providing an underground barrier for a water flow. The method includes the steps of drilling in soil a number of parallel vertical holes; inserting pipe strings into the drilled holes, where each pipe string has a pipe string wall with a plurality of openings arranged distributed along the length of the pipe string; introducing injector means in each of the pipe strings; positioning the injector means at a plurality of discrete depths in the respective pipe string and aligned at each depth with at least one of the openings in the pipe string wall; and injecting at each discrete depth a sealing compound, such as sodium silicate, through the at least one aligned opening into the soil.

A ground improvement apparatus includes: an inner shaft arranged inside an outer pipe and including a mechanism for rotating a crank at a rotation speed four times as fast as that of the outer pipe; agitation blades supported by the outer pipe so as to reciprocate in a radial direction of the outer pipe and including discharge outlets; and a slider crank mechanism for converting a rotation movement of the crank to a reciprocating movement of the agitation blades. A ground at a location where the outer pipe is penetrated and a solidifying material discharged from the discharge outlets are agitated and mixed with each other to form an improved body having a substantially rectangular cross section by rotating the agitation blades while advancing and retreating the agitation blades relative to each other via the slider crank mechanism by rotation of the crank.

A high pressure injection flushing head includes a flushing body comprising an upper body portion, and a lower body portion coupled to the upper body portion. The upper body portion and the lower body portion cooperate to define a bore. A shaft is rotatably disposed at least partially within the bore. A plurality of rotary elements are configured to facilitate rotational movement of the shaft relative to the flushing body. The flushing body comprises a lubrication system having a plurality of grease nipples, and a network of pathways in fluid communication with the grease nipples that are configured to deliver grease to the rotary bearings. The flushing head couples to an adapter via a flanged connection so that the flushing head can be adapted for use with a plurality of drill rod types.

The present invention discloses a rainfall sensing two-component high-polymer grouting device and a manufacturing method therefor, and belongs to the technical field of soil protection. The present invention includes an iron box and a water bucket. The water bucket is slidably fitted in the iron box. An inner bottom of the iron box is provided with a pair of lever upturning apparatuses symmetrically distributed about an axis center of the iron box. A lower surface of the iron box is provided with a curing agent ejector and a resin ejector. An end of two lever upturning apparatuses is slidably connected to a low surface of the water bucket. The switches of the curing agent ejector and the resin ejector are respectively connected to the other end of a lever upturning apparatus. A peripheral surface of the water bucket is provided with a permeable hole, and a permeable head is installed on the permeable hole. The present invention utilizes the lever principle of natural gravity and the spring-assisted method to realize the function of high-polymer grouting slope protection, and belongs to an ingenious mechanical structure apparatus. There is no need to stimulate and excite from the external energy, which is environmentally friendly and does not waste the resources and energy.
