  • a baffle 15 extends between the outer surface 12 of the member 9 and the inner surface 16 of the wall of the casing 17 of the pump 1. The baffle 15 is provided adjacent, but spaced from, the entry 10 to the inlet 6. The baffle 15 separates the pump chamber 2 and the liquid entry chamber 7.
  • the delivery pipe 4 is provided with a portion 18 having an enlarged cross- sectional area, in the pump chamber 2, which forms a mixing chamber.
  • the portion 18 is provided adjacent the portion 14 of the delivery pipe 4. The portion 18 is located above the portion 14, in the direction of fluid flow in the delivery pipe 4.
  • a short tube 19 extends from the air inlet 3.
  • the short tube 19 is provided on the exterior of the pump chamber 2.
  • An air supply hose (not shown) is connectible to the short tube 19.
  • a tube 20 extends from the delivery pipe 4.
  • the tube 20 is provided with a suitable connection, e.g. a screw thread 21 , such that the tube 20 can be attached to a delivery pipe extension (not shown).
  • the tube 20 is located exteriorly of the pump chamber 2.
  • the portions 14 and 18 are located interiorly of the pump chamber 2.
  • a valve 22 is provided at the liquid inlet 5.
  • the valve 22 comprises a valve member which may be in the form of a ball 23 and a valve seat 24 surrounding the opening 5.
  • the ball 23 is provided in the liquid entry chamber 7.
  • the ball 23 is confined to movement within the liquid entry chamber 7.
  • a bar, represented by the broken line 25, is provided across the opening 8. The bar 25 prevents the ball 23 blocking the opening 8. However, the bar 25 still allows flow of fluid through the opening 8 even when the ball 23 abuts the bar 25 (as shown in Figure 1).
  • the pump 1 is suspended from ground level to its operating position in a source of liquid, below the level of liquid to be pumped from the source.
  • the liquid to be pumped may be water located in a bore 100.
  • the air inlet 3 Prior to insertion of the pump 1 into the bore 100, the air inlet 3 is connected to a source of compressed air, such as a compressor. This is done by connecting a hose from the source of compressed air to the short tube 19. A first delivery pipe extension (not shown) is connected to the tube 20. This may be done by the screw thread 21 provided on the tube 20.
  • An outlet is provided at ground level so that liquid and air are able to travel from the pump 1 along the delivery pipe 4 and delivery pipe extensions to the outlet at ground level.
  • water passes through the liquid inlet 5 by unseating the ball 23 from the seat 24.
  • the water then enters the liquid entry chamber 7.
  • the water may pass from the liquid entry chamber 7 through the opening 8 so that the water level in the pump 1 is substantially the same as the external water level in the bore 100.
  • water will pass through the opening 8, along the member 9, into the delivery pipe 4 and then down the inlet 6 into the pump chamber 2.
  • the water enters the pump chamber 2 and the delivery pipe 4 of the pump 1 until the level of water therein is the same as the external water level in the bore 100.
  • the source of compressed air (such as a compressor) is activated such that compressed air is fed from the source of compressed air to the pump chamber 2 via the inlet 3.
  • the introduction of compressed air into the pump chamber 2 causes the pressure in the pump chamber 2 to increase.
  • the air will mix with any water in the pump chamber 2 and the air and water will pass into the inlet 6 via the entry 10.
  • the liquid and air travel in the inlet 6 and discharge from the exit 11 into the delivery pipe 4 as an initial surge of water and air.
  • the initial operation of the pump 1 is the same as hereinbefore described except that there is no initial surge of water and air from the pump chamber 2 into the delivery pipe 4 via the inlet 6.
  • the level of liquid in the delivery pipe 4 will be at a level lower than the level of the exit 11.
  • the water travels up the delivery pipe extensions with the air and is discharged from the outlet at ground level, remote from the pump 1.
  • the member 9 and delivery pipe 4 form a flow path, or channel, along which the water can travel from the liquid entry chamber 7 out of the pump 1 and up the delivery pipe extensions
  • the pump 1 operates to continually discharge water from the bore 100. Thus, there is no venting stage in the pump operation.
  • the ball 23 moves onto (as shown in Figure 2) and off the valve seat 24. As compressed air lifts water up the delivery pipe 4, the ball 23 unseats from the seat 24 to allow more water to enter the liquid entry chamber 7 via the liquid inlet 5. In this way, water leaving the entry chamber 7, via the opening 8 to be carried along the delivery pipe 4 by the compressed air, is replaced with further water entering the liquid entry chamber 7 via the liquid inlet 5.
  • the ball 23 never closes off the opening 8 (as shown in Figure 1 ). Thus, the ball 23 does not prevent water from passing from the liquid entry chamber 7 into the delivery pipe 4 via the opening 8.
  • the pump 1 of the present invention may be used in bores of a wide range of depths. Indeed, the depth of the bore is not a factor that normally affects the operation of the pump 1. However, the greater the depth to which the pump is lowered, the larger the capacity of the compressor that will be required.

Un tuyau de distribution (4) distribue le liquide et l'air à un emplacement éloigné de la pompe (1), par exemple au niveau du sol. Le tuyau de distribution (4) et la chambre de pompe (2) sont en communication de fluide. La chambre d'entrée de liquide (7) et le tuyau de distribution (4) sont en communication de fluide. Une entrée (6) introduit de l'air provenant de la chambre de pompe (2) dans le tuyau de distribution (4). Le liquide qui entre dans la chambre d'entrée de liquide (7) est transporté par l'air le long du tuyau de distribution (4) jusqu'à l'emplacement éloigné de la pompe (1).
