摘要:
A tethering device for use in securing a boat to a dock is mounted to the underside of the dock decking with its deck trim assembly flush with the top of the dock and only the looped, running end of the tethering line extending from a hole in its deck trim assembly. Threaded studs welded to the underside to the deck trim assembly enable its line retraction mechanism and line locking mechanism to be supported below the decking leaving the deck surface free of tripping hazards and excess line. Below the decking, an assembly cover houses a self-retracting reel and a line-locking mechanism for control over the line, retracting excess line but enabling the user to set and hold the length of line needed for tethering a boat to the dock.
摘要:
A system for supplying fuel to an engine of a ship. The system includes a high pressure pump pressurizing a liquefied natural gas (LNG) and supplying the pressurized LNG to the engine, a hydraulic motor driving the high pressure pump and a chamber carrying the high pressure pump and the hydraulic motor. The chamber is substantially free of electric sparks.
摘要:
A fastening device including a first tube defining a first major axis, a distal portion, a proximal portion, and a through hole, the proximal portion of the first tube including an attachment element. A second tube is disposed within the through hole of the first tube, the second tube defining a second major axis that is substantially orthogonal to the first major axis. The attachment means may be one or more notches, a flange, a socket, a wedge and a clamp, or an arm. The first tube may have a bend, and the bend may be between approximately 25° and approximately 30°. Further, the second tube may define a second tube length, and may include a first component and a second component that screw together to provide an adjustable second tube length. The first tube and second tube may be pivotally coupled.
摘要:
A sealing device (1) and method for sealing between a chain (2) and a chain pipe (3), said chain for example being an anchor chain on a marine offshore platform or on a ship, and said chain pipe (3) leading for example to a chain locker for onboard storage of the chain in said platform or ship. The sealing device (1) comprises at least two opposing cover lids (7) positioned at the mouth (8) of the chain pipe (3) or an extension collar (7) thereof. The cover lids (7) are movably arranged from an open position into a closed position in which the cover lids (7) abut each other and seal the chain pipe (3) from water intrusion by sealingly engaging a chain link (10) of the chain. Furthermore, the cover lids (7) are provided—in mutual abutment sides (15) thereof—with one or more recesses (16) shaped in conformity with the contacting outer periphery (17) of said chain link (10). The invention is especially characterized in that the cover lids (7) each exhibit at least one inflatable seal element (18), said seal element (18) extending along a respective mutual abutment side (15) of the cover lids (7) and being adapted to expand upon pressurization with a fluid such as pressurized air, into a radial sealing engagement with the chain link (10), and that the cover lids (7) are attached to an extension collar (9) of the chain pipe (3), said extension collar (3) being movably arranged with respect to the rest of the chain pipe (3) by means of a flexible interconnection collar (47) mounted therebetween.
