Abstract
On a slurry wall device having a cable mounting, on which is attached a supporting cable for guiding the slurry wall device, is provided an adjusting device, with which a supporting cable contact point can be laterally displaced, so that the slurry wall device can be controlled with respect to its deflection in the trench. This permits the orientation of the slurry wall device and consequently its contact angle ofthe bore hole bottom to be controlled by a particularly simple device. It is also easily possible to retrofit a slurry wall device with such an adjusting device.
Claims13
Slurry wall device for forming a trench comprising:
- a main frame,
- a cable mounting on said main frame for attachment of a supporting cable at a supporting cable contact point for holding and guiding the slurry wall device,
- a direction control device for controlling a direction of the slurry wall device, and
- an adjusting device for displacing said supporting cable contact point of said cable mounting relative to said elongated direction of the slurry wall device thereby controlling an orientation of the slurry wall device.
