NESTING STORMWATER CHAMBER ENDCAPS
20250197101 · 2025-06-19 · ·

Consistent with disclosed embodiments, a stackable endcap of a chamber for holding and discharging stormwater may be provided. The stackable endcap may include an endcap body having a wall with a convex outer surface and a concave inner surface, the concave inner surface of the wall defining an interior volume of the stackable endcap; a substantially planar foot extending from a lower edge of the endcap body; and a protruding inner rim running along an inner edge of the endcap body. The stackable endcap may be configured to be stacked with at least one additional endcap such that at least one of the foot or the inner rim of the stackable endcap contacts the additional endcap while the wall of the endcap body is spaced apart from a wall of the additional endcap.

Anchoring apparatus for buried objects
12351387 · 2025-07-08 ·

An anchoring apparatus for anchoring objects underground against upward forces includes a pair of bases, each of which comprises a container for holding weights. The object to be anchored may be positioned over the pair of bases such that the bases extend outwardly from the object. The bases are attachable to the load via mounting straps, threaded fasteners, or the like. The bases push against soil when upward forces act on the object, and the weights further operate to secure the object against the upward force.

Robot ball detection device

A system and method for detecting blockages and/or leaking in a piping system. The travel speed, travel time, movement, images, audio, odor, and/or other data provided by a robot ball moving through the piping system may indicate if a blockage or leak exists. An electronic notification may be sent detailing the blockage and/or leak, which may include a location and corrective action.

Flushable pill sensor

A system and method for detecting blockages or leaks in a piping system. A water-resistant pill sensor is tracked while it travels through the piping system. The pill sensor's travel speed, travel time, movement, images, audio, and/or other data determines if a leak or blockage exists, and if so, an electronic notification detailing the blockage or leak, its location, and corrective action is sent.

Method and process for storing liquid and gaseous fluids under pressure in a vertical subsurface vessel
12404972 · 2025-09-02 ·

A system and method for creating a subterranean storage facility at a location where there is underlying bedrock. A storage tank is provided that is formed from a cylindrical casing that is sealed with a top closure and a bottom closure. A first hole is excavated through the overburden. At the bottom of the first hole, a second hole is excavated into the bedrock. The storage tank is placed in the second hole with the top closure of the storage tank facing upward. The storage tank is set into the bedrock with a cement mixture. Pipe risers are extended into the storage tank through the first closure. The pipe risers extend up through the first hole and provide access to the storage tank.
