- the filter means may be incorporated in or on a subsea ⁇ reason, after the positioning of the housing. This is particularly advantageous if a filter device is to be introduced, which is weighted with a countersunk body and which sinks in the installation position of the housing on its base.
- At least two filter devices are introduced into the receiving volume of the housing before the housing of the device is positioned.
- a filter device is first introduced ⁇ into the housing, which is weighted with a sinker, so that the filter means decreases in the installation position of the housing after its reduction below the water surface to the bottom of the housing.
- This filter device introduced first serves to close desired openings - for example gaps - on the lower end of the housing in the installation position.
- a further filter device is ⁇ into the housing, said filter means is arranged in the immediate vicinity of the filling opening arranged above in the installation position of the housing outlet by pinching in the receiving volume.
- this filter device is not necessary to install a sinker.
- this filter device introduced as the second, is a filter device which consists of water-permeable filter sleeves filled with filter medium, which are connected to one another by means of connecting devices to form a ring.
- a movement of the filter device is detected during the filling of the Medmas ⁇ se in the receiving volume of the housing. This detection is preferred wise via a visual monitoring, more preferably by a video surveillance of the filter device.
- the detection of the movement of the filter device is more preferably the detection of the pushing out of the filter device from the receiving volume.
- the filling process is preferably then stopped as soon as such a movement of the filter device is detected.
- the method according to the invention preferably further comprises the step of recovering and / or disposing of the filter device pressed out of the receiving volume by the filling compound.
- the filter device is a filter device which consists of filter-medium-filled, water-permeable filter sleeves, which are connected to one another by means of connecting devices to form a ring.
- Figure 1 shows a schematic view of a first
- Embodiment of the device according to the invention with two outlet openings and using two filter devices with two outlet openings and using two filter devices.
- Figure 1 shows a schematic view of the device 1 according to the invention, which was introduced as part of a foundation pile for an offshore structure by vibrating into the seabed as underwater structure 11.
- the invention shown SSE device 1 is arranged accordingly below the water surface 12th
- the device 1 has a housing 2, which in turn has an outer tube 8 and an inner tube 9. Both tubes are made of sheet steel. Furthermore, the diam ⁇ ser or the first inside diameter of the outer tube 8 is larger than the diameter and the second inside diameter of the inner pipe 9. As can be seen from Figure 1, the inner tube 9 is inserted into the outer tube 8, so that it is enclosed by this. In other words, an annular gap is formed between the outer tube 8 and the inner tube 9. This has a width of about 30-35 cm.
- the intermediate space / annular gap 10 formed between the outer tube 8 and the inner tube 9 represents the receiving volume 3 of the housing 2.
- the device has a filling opening 4, which penetrates the outer tube 8 and provides ⁇ access to the receiving volume 3 ⁇ .
- the filling opening 4 is adapted to be connected ⁇ hose with a connection leading to a pump, which serves as conveying means for the to be introduced into the receiving volume filling compound. 5
- the pump or the hose are not shown in FIG.
- the filling compound 5 is moved in the direction indicated by arrows flow direction. In this case, the filling level 13 of the filling compound 5 increases in the receiving volume 3 and displaces there ⁇ at the first located in the receiving volume 3 water.
- the illustrated device has an outlet opening 6, through which the water displaced by the filling compound 5 can escape.
- the outlet opening 6 is arranged in the installation position of the housing 2 above the filling ⁇ opening 4. More specifically, the outlet port 6 is disposed at the upper and free ends of the housing 2, which has not been vibrated into the seabed 11.
- the outlet ⁇ opening 6 is also regarded as an opening of the annular gap 10 between the outer tube 8 and the inner tube 9.
- the filter device 7 located at the upper end of the housing 2 is the filter device 7. This was before lowering the housing 2 on the seabed 11 of the kind in the annular gap 10 is ⁇ clamped that the filter device 7 is partially disposed in the receiving volume 3. In other words, a part of the filter device 7 protrudes beyond the outlet opening 6 of the housing. ses 2 out. This has the advantage that the Filtereinrich ⁇ tung 7 can be checked visually very easily, since it is easily visible.
- the filter device 7 further consists of several filled with filter medium tubular and water-permeable filter sleeves, which are connected at their respective ends via connecting means 14 together to form a ring.
- the connecting devices 14 are steel cables or chains.
- the filter medium which is used in the filter device 7 is pellets pressed rice husk ash.
- Figure 2 shows a schematic view of another From ⁇ guide of the apparatus of the present invention wherein most of the features substantially coincide with the embodiment of FIG. 1
- the device 1 also has a housing 2 consisting of an outer tube 8 and an inner tube 9 embedded in it, both tubes again being made of sheet steel.
- the filter device 7 of the embodiment of FIG. consists of several filled with rice husk ash in pellet ⁇ th tubular and water-permeable filter sleeves made of a fabric, which are connected at their respective ends via connecting means 14 together to form a ring.
- the illustrated device 1 of FIG. 2 has an outlet opening 6, which is arranged above the filling opening 4 at the upper and free end of the housing 2, which has not been positioned on the underwater structure 11.
- a further outlet opening 6, which is ge outlet ⁇ forms through a gap at the bottom in the installed position the end of the housing 2.
- a filter device 7 weighted with a steel chain as a countersunk body 15 was introduced into the receiving volume 3 before the beginning of the filling of filling compound 5 into the receiving volume 3.
- the thus weighted filter device 7 dropped to the bottom of the housing 2 and came to lie in front of the gap 6.
- the filling of filling material 5 in the receiving ⁇ volume 3 was started and in the burdened with the sinker 15 filter device 7 it came about the absorbed by the filter medium components of the filling compound 5 to form a filter cake.
- the gap 6 in the housing 2 was effectively sealed.
- Filter device filled with filter medium tubular and water-permeable filter outer tube
