Abstract (en)

An injection unit (10) for injecting consolidating fluid mixtures under pressure into the soil (T), comprising:- an outer cylindrical body (11);- at least one outlet lateral nozzle (12) defining an injection hole (12a) substantially perpendicular to the axis of the central longitudinal outer cylindrical body (11) and- a conduit (13), for connecting the upper inlet (11a) to the outlet nozzle (12);wherein the conduit (13) has along its axial extent a section progressively decreasing from the upper entrance to the nozzle, so that the fluid mixture (M) which flows along the conduit (13) acquires a progressively increasing speed, andwherein the conduit (13) and the injection hole (12a) of the outlet lateral nozzle (12) have one or more stabiliser ridges or fins (14) which are formed and extend along their surface, from the area of the upper entrance to the outlet of the injection hole, and have the function of stabilising and making laminar the flow of the fluid mixture (M) to enable a high efficiency to the injection head (10) and a high power to the jet emitted by the outlet lateral nozzle (12).
