摘要:
There is disclosed an underwater tool (5; 205; 305) comprising a grabber arrangement (15; 215; 315) and a cutter arrangement (20; 220; 320) which are connected together. The grabber arrangement (15; 215; 315) comprises a plurality of grabber elements (30; 230; 330) disposed on first and second sides (35a; 235a; 335a; 35b; 235b; 335b) of the tool (5; 205; 305). The cutter arrangement (10; 205; 305) a cutter slot (75; 275; 375), an anvil (80; 280; 380) movable to close the slot comprises an anvil (80; 280; 380) and a cutter blade (90; 290'; 390). In use, a cable (10; 210; 310) is held by the grabber arrangement, and thereby moved into the slot (75; 275; 375) which is then closed by the anvil (80; 280; 380) so as to entrap the cable (10; 210; 310) within the slot (75; 275; 375). The cutter blade 90; 290; 390) is then driven against the anvil (80; 280; 380) so as to cut the cable (10; 210; 310).
摘要:
A separator apparatus (10), such as a separator apparatus for use with an underwater excavation apparatus (5), is configured to receive a mixture of fluid and solids from an underwater excavation apparatus (5). The separator apparatus (10) includes at least one separation arrangement or means. The separation arrangement or means is configured to separate at least a portion or part of the solids from a mixture of fluid and solids passing or flowing in or through the separator apparatus (10).
