Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention include a system for locating and restoring service lines during pipeline restoration. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the system includes a movable chart, a plug with a marking magnet, and an attachment part. In some embodiments of the present invention, the movable cart is deployed along the inside of a pipeline. In some embodiments, the attachment part is movably coupled to the movable cart. The attachment part is configured to install a plug into the service line at a location where the service line intersects the pipeline, according to some embodiments. In other embodiments, the attachment part is configured to mark the location of the plug in the service line and remove the plug from the service line to restore a fluid connection between the service line and the pipeline.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of Chinese patent application 200980112337.9 (PCT / US2009 / 032784) filed on February 1, 2009, entitled: "System and method for locating and repairing service lines in pipeline restoration". [0002] related application [0003] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 025,627, filed February 1, 2008, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0004] Embodiments of the invention relate generally to pipeline restoration, and more particularly to locating and repairing service lines in pipeline restoration. Background technique [0005] Over time, pipes often suffer from internal diameter corrosion and / or micro-cracks and / or leaks. These pipes must be replaced or rehabilitated frequently. Replacement often involves the movement or destruction of above-ground structures such as driveways or sidewalks. Rehabilitation, on the other hand, may allow new pipe ...
