Abstract
Provided is a waste water collection device and a method of collecting waste water dispelled from a water cooled saw cutting the ground.
Claims7
A waste water collection device for collecting waste water dispelled from a water cooled saw comprising:
- a trough defining an elongated opening through the top, center and bottom of the trough, the opening being to allow a water cooled saw blade to pass through opening and contact a ground surface to be cut, the trough being constructed to retain waste water leaving the water cooled saw during use;
- a saw connection constructed for connecting the trough to a water cooled saw so that the saw is within the opening of the trough;
- a waste water outlet constructed to remove waste water retained within the trough;
- a flexible hose constructed to remove a slurry from a trench cut by the saw during use;
- and
- a vacuum connector constructed for connecting to a vacuum source, the vacuum connector being connected to the waste water outlet and flexible hose.

A method of collecting waste water dispelled from a water cooled saw comprising the steps of:
- providing a trough defining an elongated opening through the top, center and bottom of the trough, the opening being sized to allow a water cooled saw blade to pass through opening and contact a ground surface to be cut, the trough being constructed to retain waste water leaving the water cooled saw during use;
- connecting the saw to the trough using a saw connection constructed for connecting the trough to a water cooled saw so that the saw is within the opening of the trough;
- providing a waste water outlet constructed to remove waste water retained within the trough;
- providing a flexible hose constructed to remove a slurry from a trench cut by the saw during use;
- connecting a vacuum source to a vacuum connector being connected to the waste water outlet and flexible hose;
- connecting the saw to a source of water;
- cutting a surface of the ground using the saw to form a trench;
- supplying water to the saw during cutting;
- retaining waste water from the saw in the trough during cutting;
- applying a vacuum to the waste water outlet using the vacuum source and removing waste water from the trough through the waste water outlet;
- and
- applying a vacuum to the flexible hose using the vacuum source and removing a slurry from the trench through the flexible hose.
