  • Patent number: 5342149
    Abstract: A system is described to separately furnish to an injector apparatus that is placed within a pipe two or more grout components. The injector apparatus is secured in position in the pipe by components of the injector apparatus that are urged into a position of cooperation with a modified section of pipe as a consequence of the increased hydraulic pressure that occurs within the injector apparatus during the pumping of one of the grout components thereinto. The two or more grout components after separately being furnished to the injector apparatus are then combined together by elements of the system and are then thoroughly mixed (reacted) together by other elements of the system to form a grout that is discharged from the system following their mixing together and prior to setting of the grout in ideal proximity with respect to a crack or crevice requiring grout application. All components of the system are recovered for subsequent use elsewhere.

  • Patent number: 4074735
    Abstract: This invention relates to a grouting tube for packer designed to prevent back-flow of cement grouting material past the grout packer out of the grouting area. The grouting tube is comprised essentially of an innertube constructed of steel or like material through which the grouting material is designed to flow. The inner tube has threaded nut means disposed a distance from the upper end of the tube on reverse threads. At the other or lower end of the tube, a retaining ring means is disposed and attached to said bottom end by means of rivets or the like. Concentric with said inner tube and disposed between said ring and said nut means is a series of alternating frusto-conical tubes and flexible frusto-conical leather caps. The caps are designed to act as seals between the grouting tube and the walls of the grout hole to prevent backflow of grouting material.
