Abstract
Additionally, there is an effect in preventing oil spill phenomena caused by damage or unbalance of the fence by reducing the water pressure applied to the fence due to water penetration even when a strong water pressure acts on the fence, for example, strong tidal currents occur and the fence is towed at high speeds to collect oil.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A fence having a hydrophilic material, comprising:
a float that floats in water; and a skirt coupled to at least one of top and bottom of the float, wherein at least one of the float and the skirt is made of a hydrophilic material that allows for selective penetration of a hydrophilic fluid, or has a surface to which a hydrophilic separation membrane made of a hydrophilic material is coupled.
2 . The fence having a hydrophilic material according to claim 1 , wherein comprises a support composed of a plurality of frames coupled to support the surface of at least one of the float and the skirt in order to reinforce strength. 15
3 . The fence having a hydrophilic material according to claim 1 , wherein in case that the hydrophilic separation membrane made of a hydrophilic material is coupled to the surface,
the float includes: an inner floating body continuously extending in spiral shape.
4 . The fence having a hydrophilic material according to claim 1 , wherein in case that the hydrophilic separation membrane made of a hydrophilic material is coupled to the surface,
the float includes: a plurality of tube bodies spaced apart from each other; and at least one disk member through which the plurality of tube bodies is coupled so that the plurality of tube bodies is held together.
5 . The fence having a hydrophilic material according to claim 1 , wherein in case that the hydrophilic separation membrane made of a hydrophilic material is coupled to the surface,
the float includes: an inner floating body formed of a tube including a plurality of through-holes.
6 . The fence having a hydrophilic material according to claim 1 , wherein in case that the hydrophilic separation membrane made of a hydrophilic material is coupled to the surface,
the float includes: a plurality of tube bodies arranged in parallel; and a coil member into which the plurality of tube bodies is inserted so that the plurality of tube bodies is supported.
7 . The fence having a hydrophilic material according to claim 1 , wherein comprises a reinforcing material coupled to at least one of the float and the skirt to reinforce strength.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
