Hydro cap head

Abstract

A hydro cap head is described as part of a piling installation system. The hydro cap head includes a securing structure configured to attach the hydro cap head to a piling having an internal cavity. A spout opening is configured to receive pressurized water and a spout extent is configured to direct the pressurized water through the hydro cap head and into the internal cavity of the piling. The hydro cap head also includes a hoist structure configured to support a combined weight of the hydro cap head and the piling.

1 . A hydro cap head comprising:
 a securing structure configured to attach the hydro cap head to a piling having an internal cavity;   a spout opening configured to receive pressurized water;   a spout extent extending through the hydro cap head and configured to direct the pressurized water through the hydro cap head and into the internal cavity of the piling; and   a hoist structure configured to support a combined weight of the hydro cap head and the piling.   
     
     
         2 . The hydro cap head of  claim 1 , wherein the securing structure comprises a circular collar configured to surround the piling when attached. 
     
     
         3 . The hydro cap head of  claim 2 , wherein the circular collar comprises a plurality of side opening, each side opening defining a side hole. 
     
     
         4 . The hydro cap head of  claim 3 , wherein each side hole is angled at 45° from an outer surface of the piling. 
     
     
         5 . The hydro cap head of  claim 1 , wherein the securing structure comprises a seal configured to seal the internal cavity of the piling. 
     
     
         6 . The hydro cap head of  claim 1 , wherein the hoist structure defines an eyelet opening. 
     
     
         7 . A piling installation system comprising:
 a hydro cap head comprising:
 a securing structure configured to attach the hydro cap head to a piling having an internal cavity; 
 a spout opening configured to receive pressurized water; 
 a spout extent extending through the hydro cap head and configured to direct the pressurized water through the hydro cap head and into the internal cavity of the piling; and 
 a hoist structure configured to support a combined weight of the hydro cap head and the piling; 
   a water pump configured to provide the pressurized water; and   a water hose configured to fluidly connect the water pump to the spout opening.   
     
     
         8 . The piling installation system of  claim 7 , wherein the securing structure comprises a circular collar configured to surround the piling when attached. 
     
     
         9 . The piling installation system of  claim 8 , wherein the circular collar comprises a plurality of side opening, each side opening defining a side hole. 
     
     
         10 . The piling installation system of  claim 9 , wherein each side hole is angled at 45° from an outer surface of the piling. 
     
     
         11 . The piling installation system of  claim 7 , wherein the securing structure comprises a seal configured to seal the internal cavity of the piling. 
     
     
         12 . The piling installation system of  claim 7 , wherein the hoist structure defines an eyelet opening. 
     
     
         13 . The hydro cap head of  claim 1 , wherein the spout extent extends into the internal cavity when the securing structure attaches the hydro cap head to the piling. 
     
     
         14 . The hydro cap head of  claim 13 , wherein the securing structure comprises a seal configured to seal around the spout extent. 
     
     
         15 . The hydro cap head of  claim 14 , wherein the seal is further configured to seal the internal cavity of the piling. 
     
     
         16 . The hydro cap head of  claim 5 , wherein the seal is further configured to seal against a top of the piling. 
     
     
         17 . The hydro cap head of  claim 5 , wherein the seal is further configured to seal against a side of the piling. 
     
     
         18 . The hydro cap head of  claim 5 , wherein the spout extent comprises a length of pipe extending centrally through the hydro cap head. 
     
     
         19 . The piling installation system of  claim 9 , wherein the spout extent extends into the internal cavity when the securing structure attaches the hydro cap head to the piling. 
     
     
         20 . The piling installation system of  claim 19 , wherein the securing structure comprises a seal configured to seal around the spout extent.
