Abstract
A catch basin filtration system is disclosed. A filter body is dimensioned to fit within a drain inlet forming a trough or reservoir obstructing at least a portion of the inlet. The filter body is supported by a filter body support dimensioned to cooperatively engage with the interior walls of the inlet and with the filter body to substantially maintain said filter body in a pre-selected shape and position within the inlet. One or more connectors removably connect the filter body to the filter body support. One or more adjustable high fluid flow bypasses prevent the system from backing up and flooding surrounding areas during periods of high fluid flow.
Claims20
An apparatus, comprising:
- (a) a filtration device dimensioned to fit within an inlet and obstructing at least a portion of said inlet;
- (b) a filtration device support dimensioned and adapted to cooperatively engage with said inlet and with said filtration device to substantially maintain said filtration device in a pre-selected position within said inlet;
- and
- (c) an adjustable deflector ring connected to said filtration device support, said adjustable deflector ring containing at least one flow control wall along at least one outer edge.
A catch basin filtration system, comprising:
- (a) a filtering means for filtering fluid flowing through the system;
- (b) a support means for supporting said filtering means;
- and
- (c) a flow control means for controlling and directing fluid entering the catch basin filtration system.
A catch basin filtration system, comprising:
- (a) a filter body dimensioned to fit within an inlet and forming a reservoir obstructing at least a portion of said inlet;
- (b) a filter body support dimensioned and adapted to cooperatively engage with said inlet and with said filter body to substantially maintain said filter body in a pre-selected position within said inlet;
- (c) an initial high flow bypass situated within said filter body support and capable of passing excess fluid during periods of high volume fluid flow;
- (d) a secondary high flow bypass situated within said filter body support and capable of passing excess fluid during periods of high volume fluid flow;
- (e) one or more fluid displaceable adsorbent containers situated within said filter body;
- (f) one or more support brackets attachable to one or more inner walls of a catch basin and supporting said filter body support;
- and
- (g) an adjustable deflector ring connected to said one or more support brackets, said adjustable deflector ring containing a flow control wall along at least one outer edge.
