Water suppressor and sediment collection system for use in shallow and deeper water environments
Abstract:
A transportable wave suppressor and sediment collection (WSSC) system positionable in deep water along a coastline of a body of water, having a plurality of sections, each section further including a base portion having an upper floor portion, a forward wall, rear wall and two sidewalls and an open bottom end portion for being positioned on a floor of the body of water; at least a pair of raised elongated members positioned on the upper surface of the upper floor of the base; an upper portion to be secured to the base portion, the upper section having a angulated front wall to receive the flow of water through a plurality of flow pipes as the water engages each section; at least a pair of elongated openings in the upper portion for receiving the raised elongated members positioned on the upper surface of the upper wall of the base to define a means for securing the base to the upper portion. There is further provided a one way valving element positioned on the rear end of each flow pipe, for allowing water containing sediments to exit the pipe at the rear wall, but preventing the water and sediments from returning through the flow pipe; and a spacer portion to be positioned intermediate the base portion and upper portion, the spacer portion including a plurality of flow pipes to allow water carrying sediment to the rear of the section.
