System and method for repair of underground pipes using water infiltration

Abstract

A system and method for repair of underground pipes using water infiltration are disclosed. An example embodiment includes: a probe with a hollow interior, the probe having a receiving end and a probe tip; a pressurized infiltration liquid provider to source infiltration liquid; a viscous sealant supply to provide viscous sealant; a manifold coupled to the receiving end of the probe, the manifold also being coupled to the pressurized infiltration liquid provider and the a viscous sealant supply; the pressurized infiltration liquid provider being configured to eject infiltration liquid through the manifold, into the hollow interior of the probe, and out of the probe tip; and the viscous sealant supply being configured to eject viscous sealant through the manifold, into the hollow interior of the probe, and out of the probe tip.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
