DEVICE FOR INTERIOR FLUSHING OF CONTAINERS

摘要

The present invention relates to a device for inte­rior flushing of spaces in containers, e.g. ship's tanks. At least one flushing-liquid pipe (8) for the supply of flushing liquid (7) is provided in the space (2) and the flushing-liquid pipe (8) has at least one flushing nozzle (9) for discharging jets (10) of flushing liquid. A dri­ving or operating device (22) is provided to rotate the flushing-liquid pipe (8) about a geometric rotation axis (R1A) and the flushing nozzle (9) about another geometric rotation axis (R2A). The driving device (22) is provided to be brought to rotate in opposite rotary directions (R1, R2) by reversing its rotary direction. A switch de­vice (23) is provided to bring either the flushing-liquid pipe (8) or the flushing nozzle (9) to rotate in depen­dence of the rotary direction (R1 or R2) of the driving device (22). A control device (48) is provided to control the driving device (22) to rotate in one or the opposite rotary direction (R1 or R2).
