A robotic device for inspecting a pipe includes at least one pair of propulsion elements each including a rotary drum, an outer surface of which has a screw thread. The device also includes a body associated with at least one pair of propulsion elements and in which are inserted sensor, at least one pair of electric motors each capable of rotating a rotary drum, and at least one pair of electric power sources each capable of powering an electric motor. The body is shaped such that a ventral portion and a dorsal portion of the device are symmetrical with one another relative to a median frontal plane of the device, thus allowing the device to move indistinctly on the belly or on the back.

A system where a shaft runs through a center of a hydro screw helical gear main bearing. The helical gear positioned at approximately the end of the horizontal shaft and connects to the vertical power shaft and mating helical gear. Two main and two truss (shoe type) bearings position the screw/auger. There is on the hydro shaft a pressure seal in the Power Keel. The pitch angle is one turn (RPM) to 7.5 feet of travel with a four feet wide screw built into the blades-flukes off the screw/auger. The bearings are 12,000 RPM capable.
摘要:
A hull is for a vessel and includes an elongated body rotatably connected to the vessel and a first end portion and a second end portion. The longitudinal axis of the elongated body substantially coincides with the longitudinal axis of the vessel and the elongated body is formed with a helical shape at least in a portion. The helical portion of the elongated body is provided with a star-shaped cross section.

A propeller nozzle for watercraft includes a stationary propeller and a nozzle ring that shrouds the propeller and can be pivoted by means of a nozzle shaft. The nozzle shaft is provided in the form of a hollow body in order to achieve a constructively simple and simultaneously stable connection between the nozzle shaft and the nozzle ring.

A screw drive vehicle has a main housing with forward and aft ends and first and second lateral sides. A first support arm rotatably supports a first pontoon assembly from the first lateral side of the main housing. A second support arm rotatably supports a second pontoon assembly from the second lateral side of the main body. A reversible motor in the housing simultaneously rotates the support arms from positions parallel to one another and the main housing to non-parallel positions. Each pontoon assembly includes a tubular housing with exterior screw thread supported for rotation between distal ends of the arm and a reversible pontoon drive motor operably coupled with the tubular housing so as to rotate the housing and thread in a selected rotational direction.
摘要:
A course-holding, high-speed, sea-going vessel having a hull which is intended to hold payloads or passengers and at least one rotatable, preferably electric, rudder propeller (POD) which is arranged gondola-like under the hull of the vessel and has, to supply it with power, at least one motor/generator unit which is arranged in the hull of the vessel, the hull of the vessel having at least in part a bottom which rises somewhat toward the two sides of the hull, and in that the front part of the hull is designed so as to stabilize the course and movement of the vessel and ending under water, in particular in a relatively slender bow with a bulb, and in that a flow-guiding element (skegg) is arranged upstream of each rudder propeller in order both to optimize the handling characteristics and to achieve an optimized flow against the rudder propeller, which has a displacement volume for the water flowing against the respective rudder propeller.
摘要:
A sheet cassette is disclosed for accommodating cut sheets therein, and is detachably coupled to an apparatus to which the cut sheets are to be fed. The sheet cassette is provided with a cassette housing, and a supporting plate, provided in the cassette housing, for supporting the cut sheets thereon and being movable in a vertical direction transverse to the feeding direction of the cut sheets. The sheet cassette further includes at least one spring for biasing the supporting plate upwardly, and a lever for preventing the movement of the supporting plate upwardly while the cassette housing is being inserted into the apparatus and allowing the movement of the supporting plate when the cassette housing is coupled to the apparatus.
