Abstract
A cleaning plug (P) adaptable to be placed within an interior passageway (10) of a tubular system (14) includes a generally conically shaped element (16) having a first end (18) and an opposite second end (20). The width (22) of the first end (18) fits within the tube (12). The width (24) of the second end (20) may be less than the first end (18). Rigging (26) is connected to the first end (18) to secure the conical element (16). A valve assembly (28) mounted with the second end (20) has a normally closed position (30) preventing appreciable fluid flow and an open position (32) permitting fluid flow (F) through the valve (28) if the flow pressure therethrough is greater than a minimum selected pressure.

7306000 - Large scale tubular line cleaning system

A large scale cleaning plug (L) adaptable to be placed within an interior passageway (10) of a tubular system (14) includes a frame structure (208) with a first and second end (202 and 204) supporting an outer skin member (200) for directing a fluid (F) through an interior passageway formed in the skeletal frame structure (208). A middle section (300) of the frame (208) has a generally frustoconical shaped bottom (302). A rigging (236) connected to the frame (208) controllably secures the frame structure (208) in desired positions. The frame's second end (204) supports at least one nozzle assembly (220) having at least one nozzle body (222) extending from a plate (226) preventing appreciable fluid flow therethrough and permitting a desired fluid flow through an exit opening (223) of the nozzle bodies (222).

7267133 - Large scale tubular line kiting system

A large scale cleaning plug (L) adaptable to be placed within an interior passageway (10) of a tubular system (14) includes a generally conically shaped element (C) having a first end (18) and an opposite second end (20). The width of the first end (18) fits within the tube (12). The width of the second end (20) may be less than the first end (18). Rigging (236) is connected to the first end (18) to secure the conical element (C). A nozzle assembly (220) is mounted with the second end of the conical element (20). The nozzle assembly (220) has a plurality of nozzle bodies (222) extending from a plate (226) preventing appreciable fluid flow through the conical element (C) and permitting a desired fluid flow through an exit opening (223) of the nozzle bodies (222).
