A compact strainer having a small pressure loss which is easily cleaned without inserting and detaching screens in and from a strainer casing. Front and rear end portions of a tubular casing are respectively provided with an inlet and an outlet. A barrier divides in two a linear channel between the inlet and the outlet along a flowing direction and is provided on the outlet side so as to face the inlet. A filter portion surrounding the inlet is constituted by the barrier, a pair of screens laterally opposing each other and arranged at a predetermined interval are provided, and the upper and lower portions of an inner surface of an outer wall of the casing, and upper and lower regions of the outer wall are provided with opening portions with lids which make the inside of the filter portion communicate with the outside.

The present invention is related to an intelligent and durable buried drainage pipe involving a method of separation and transmission. The intelligent and durable buried drainage pipe of the present invention includes an inner (11) and an outer (12) pipe. The outer pipe (12) is longer than the inner pipe (11); a permanent magnet (2) is installed on a section of the outer pipe (12) that is longer than the inner pipe (11). At least one electromagnet (3) is fixed at intervals from the permanent magnet (2); the energized electromagnet (3) can attract the permanent magnet (2) causing it to slide. The end of the electromagnet (3) facing the permanent magnet (2) is provided with a distance sensor (6), and the switch is turned on/off by the distance sensor (6). An elastic telescopic member (4) is arranged between the permanent magnet (2) and the electromagnet (3).

A catch basin trap for attachment to an opening in a side wall of a catch basin. The catch basin trap has a body with a front side for facing outside the catch basin, and a back for side facing inside the catch basin. The body defines a chamber, an inlet opening in the back side, and an outlet opening in the front side. A collapsible outlet pipe connector is attached to the outlet opening, configured to be manipulated from a collapsed configuration to an extended configuration defining a discharge end for coupling to an outlet pipe positioned outside the catch basin. The collapsed configuration stows the collapsible outlet pipe connector within the body, and the extended configuration permits watertight coupling of the discharge end to the outlet pipe. A method of installing a catch basin trap, and a method of making a concrete catch basin are also disclosed.

A pest control assembly is configured to prevent pests from entering a structure. The pest control assembly has a plumbing system, with a drain line joined to a first cleanout. A ledge is arranged on the first cleanout. A pest control insert placed upon the ledge and further comprising a cylindrical body further having a plurality of openings are arranged upon an upper half of the cylindrical body. A chlorine gas emitted from the cylindrical body through the plurality of openings prevents pests from entering the structure.

A quick-fitting pipe fitting assembly for coupling with at least one pipe element includes a pipe fitting body, at least one coupling unit, at least one gasket and a plurality of connecting elements. Each coupling unit includes a fixed coupling element integrally extended from the pipe fitting body and a movable coupling element, the gasket disposed at the coupling unit, the connecting elements movably connect the fixed coupling element with the movable coupling element, wherein the at least one coupling unit is adapted for being preassembled with the at least one pipe element and can be fastened by at least one fastening element that is capable of being operated to fasten the movable coupling element with the fixed coupling element.

A method of managing a fluid flow within a conduit includes determining a presence of a flow blockage within the conduit, the conduit being equipped with an expandable device, controlling an electric actuator to flow a current to the expandable device to expand the expandable device radially, compacting the flow blockage radially along a length of the expandable device to create a channel adjacent the flow blockage, controlling the electric actuator to terminate a flow of the current to the expandable device to collapse the expandable device radially, and exposing the channel to open the conduit to fluid flow.

A solids removal apparatus for glycol reclamation includes a first tubular, a second tubular, and a strainer. The first tubular includes an open end configured to receive a brine stream including solid material. The second tubular is connected to and protrudes from the first tubular. The second tubular is configured to discharge an outlet stream. The strainer is disposed within the second tubular. The strainer is configured to prevent at least a portion of the solid material from flowing through the strainer, such that the outlet stream discharging from the second tubular has a solids content that is less than a solids content of the brine stream.
