HIGH-ALTITUDE STRUCTURE Russian patent published in 1996 - IPC

FIELD: civil engineering. SUBSTANCE: high-altitude structure has trunk 1, guide 2 fixed to base 3. Trunk 1 includes conical sections 4 installed on base 3 and cylindrical transition joints 5 interconnected by vertical fasteners 6. Sections 7 of guide 2 are installed in the center of conical sections 4 and cylindrical transition joints 5. Sections 7 are arranged one above another and rigidly interconnected. Holes 12 and channels 13 are originated in flanges 8 of sections 7 of guide 2 and in upper parts of conical sections 4. At least four secured cables 14 are tightened in them for each section. Base 3 of the high-altitude structure is made in the form of underground structure. Bottom 32 is installed in lower portion of the base. Tightening device 40 to tighten cables 14 is placed in the underground structure. Neutralizer-decontaminator 41 interacting with sealed pipe 42 is placed in bottom 32. Pipe 42 enables to move in vertical direction inside well 43 bored under bottom 32. Hollow ball 60 is installed in lower end of the sealed pipe 42. Sensors 61, 62, 63 are installed in the ball. Monitoring sensors are intended for measuring chemical, biological and radioactive contaminations of underground media. Similar monitoring sensors are installed on outer surfaces of each cylindrical transition joint 5 in trunk 1 for monitoring air. Monitoring sensors are related to computer 79 through signal converters. The computer is placed in compartment 44 of the high-altitude structure. Engineering means for indoor protection from different kinds of contaminations are provided. The high-altitude structure is placed triangular coordination system to draw operative maps of contaminated regions. EFFECT: air monitoring. 11 cl, 9 dwg
