Abstract
A water sealed chemically resistant cover seals the body of a turbojet or turbofan engine. Sealed connections to hoses lead to a water and cleaning fluid input hose to transmit cleaning fluids and water from a cleaning pump into the jet engine and one or more runoff output hoses to transmit runoff fluids from the engine to a filtering system, which filters the runoff fluid of toxic chemicals and pumps the filtered runoff fluid into disposable containers for environmentally safe disposal, or to a 55 gallon drum without the filtration system.
Claims18
A waterproof jet engine cover for use in cleaning the inside of turbojet and turbofan engines, the cover comprising:
- a waterproof cover capable of enclosing a body of a jet engine to seal off all drainage from the jet engine, the cover having a sealed waterproof connection to at least one drainage hose for draining fluids into a fluid collection means for environmentally safe disposal of the drainage and a sealed waterproof connection to at least one water and cleaner input hose for inputting water and cleaners used in cleaning jet engines, the cover having a form and structure and material strength capable of retaining its integrity as a seal around the body of the jet engine while the engine is turned over and cleaning materials and water sprayed into the engine and capable of resisting damage from the water, the cleaning materials and the matter removed from the jet engine so that the cover can be reused in jet engine cleaning operations and the cover having a form and structure capable of fitting over a wide range of types of turbojet and turbofan engines.
A system for cleaning the inside of turbojet and turbofan engines in an enclosed environment with fluids sealed in, the system comprising:
- a waterproof cover capable of enclosing a body of a jet engine to seal of all drainage from the jet engine, the cover having a sealed waterproof connection to at least one drainage hose for draining fluids and a sealed waterproof connection to at least one water and cleaner input hose for inputting water and cleaners used in cleaning jet engines, the cover having a form and structure and material strength capable of retaining its integrity as a seal around the body of the jet engine while the jet engine is turned over and cleaning materials and water sprayed into the engine and capable of resisting damage from the water, the cleaning materials and the matter removed from the jet engine so that the cover can be reused in jet engine cleaning operations and the cover having a form and structure capable of fitting over a wide range of types of turbojet and/or turbofan engines;
- a fluid collection means capable of receiving the drainage from the at least one drainage hose for environmentally safe disposal of the drainage;
- cleaning fluid pumping system comprising a water and cleaning material pump capable of pumping water and cleaning materials into the at least one water and cleaner input hose and into a jet engine for the purpose of cleaning the jet engine.
A method for cleaning the inside of turbojet and turbofan engines using a system for cleaning the inside of turbojet and turbofan engines in an enclosed environment with fluids sealed in, the method comprising:
- a first step of covering a jet engine with a waterproof cover capable of enclosing a body of a jet engine to seal of all drainage from the jet engine, the cover having a sealed waterproof connection to at least one drainage hose for receiving the drainage and a sealed waterproof connection to at least one water and cleaner input hose for inputting water and cleaners used in cleaning the inside of jet engines, the cover having a form and structure and material strength capable of retaining its integrity as a seal around the body of the jet engine while the jet engine is turned over and cleaning materials and water sprayed into the engine and capable of resisting damage from the water, the cleaning materials and the matter removed from the jet engine so that the cover can be reused in jet engine cleaning operations and the cover having a form and structure capable of fitting over a wide range of types of jet engines;
- a second step of pumping water and cleaning materials into the at least one water and cleaner input hose and into a jet engine for the purpose of cleaning the jet engine using a cleaning fluid pumping system comprising a water and cleaning material pump;
- a third step of collecting the drainage from the at least one drainage hose in and filtering runoff fluids used in cleaning a jet engine by using a filtering system comprising a pumping means and a filtering means capable of receiving runoff fluids used in cleaning a jet engine from the at least one drainage hose and capable of filtering the runoff fluids to remove toxic elements and make the fluid environmentally safe for disposal.
