  • Patent number: 7682655
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for remotely installing a monolithic liner in a conduit is disclosed. The apparatus includes a main component body including electromagnetic actuators, pneumatic cylinders, linear actuators relays, solenoids, ion generator, attachment points for tethers, umbilical, cameras and diameter specific guides and a reciprocation head attached thereto. The longitudinally traversing reciprocation head incorporates a fluid driven rotary turbine motor assembly communicating with shaft and self cleaning dissipation device integrating both conical and inverted cone surfaces. Also included on the reciprocating assembly is an impingement block for the efficient mixing of products and a termination mechanism for the precise remote control of product flow. Additionally, the assembly provides the ion generator to direct a stream of negatively charged air flow to the shaft and the diffusion device to effectively prohibit excess material accumulation.
