Modification to rising flood protection barrier GB2479125
A balance mechanism of a hinged barrier submerged in water comprises moving the centre of mass or gravity of the barrier arm relative to its centre of buoyancy or volume such that the barrier rises or sinks in the water. This mechanism may be used a flood protection barrier, and can be useful when the barrier is less or more dense than the water in which it is immersed.
