ABSTRACT:
A submersible dregde assembly which includes a mobile carriage which locates on and may be driven about the submerged surface of the sea, river or bay under control from the surface and which carries a rotatable bucket wheel for engaging the surface and displacing material therefrom. The displaced material is conveyed to a remote location by means of a pump which withdraws material from the region of the bucket wheel by suction. The assembly also includes arrangements for adjusting the attitude of the bucket wheel so that a level dredged surface can be formed.
