CA 2546569

A device (10) for alternately applying pressure and vacuum to pipes (42) in order to remove or prevent build-up of undesirable coatings inside the pipes is disclosed. The device (10) includes a pressure and vacuum source (340) connected to a plenum (60) having a hose (30) attached to the plenum (60) at a proximal end (31) and a control mechanism (320) attached to the hose (30) near a distal end (32). The control mechanism (320) is operable to control the plenum (60) to rapidly switch between variable amounts of vacuum and pressure to the hose (30). The plenum (60) may also be controlled to supply neither vacuum nor pressure to the hose. The device (10) may be used in a wide variety of settings, including industrial, commercial, marine hospitality industry, and household settings.

Cette invention se rapporte à un dispositif (10) servant à appliquer en alternance une pression et un vide dans des tuyaux (42) afin d'éliminer ou de prévenir la constitution de dépôts indésirables sur les parois de ces tuyaux. Ce dispositif (10) comprend une source de pression et de vide (340) reliée à un distributeur (60) comportant un tuyau souple (30) fixé au distributeur (60) à une extrémité proximale (31) et un mécanisme de commande (320) fixé au tuyau souple (30) à proximité d'une extrémité distale (32). Le mécanisme de commande (320) sert à commander le distributeur (60) pour lui permettre d'appliquer des quantités variables de vide et de pression au tuyau souple (30). Le distributeur (60) peut également être commandé pour n'appliquer ni vide ni pression au tuyau souple. Ce dispositif (10) peut être utilisé dans une grande variété de domaines, y compris l'industrie, le commerce, la marine, l'hôtellerie et la maison.
