Abstract:
A cargo rack for transferring loads between a marine vessel and an offshore marine platform (for example, oil and gas well drilling or production platform) provides a frame having a front, a rear, and upper and lower end portions. The lower end of the frame has a perimeter beam base, a raised floor and a pair of open-ended parallel fork tine tubes or sockets that communicate with the perimeter beam at the front and rear of the frame, preferably being structurally connected (e.g., welded) thereto. Openings in the perimeter beam base align with the forklift tine tubes or sockets. The frame includes a plurality of fixed side walls extending upwardly from the perimeter beam that include at least left and right side walls. A plurality of gates are movably mounted on the frame including a gate at least at the front and at least at the rear of the frame, each gate being movable between open and closed positions, the gates enabling a forklift to place loads on the floor by accessing either the front of the frame or the rear of the frame. Each gate can be pivotally attached to a fixed side wall. The frame has vertically extending positioning beams or lugs that segment the raised floor into a plurality of load-holding positions. Each load holding position has a plurality of positioning beams or lugs that laterally hold a load module (e.g., palletized load) in position once a load is placed on the raised floor.

Abstract:
본 발명은 종래 이용되던 지게차 대신 굴삭기를 매개로 선창 내 화물을 안정적으로 선적할 수 있도록 화물과 굴삭기 간의 물리적 연동을 매개하는 것으로, 굴삭기 결합부, 바디, 걸이부 및, 슬링 연결부를 포함한 스프레더 바 및 이를 이용한 선적 방법에 관한 것이다. 본 발명에 따른 굴삭기에 적용되는 스프레더 바 및 이를 이용한 선적 방법에 따르면, 굴삭기의 암 선단과 결착되어 화물을 이송하기 위한 매개가 되는 신규한 장치로 제공되어 2차 선적 작업에서 굴삭기가 효율적으로 이용될 수 있도록 하여 작업 효율성 및 경제성을 현저히 증가시키는 효과를 제공한다.
Abstract:
Embodiments, including apparatuses, systems and methods, for automatically attaching and detaching seismic devices to a deployment cable, including a plurality of autonomous seismic nodes. A node installation system may include a moveable node carrier coupled to a cable detection device and a node attachment device that is configured to move a direct attachment mechanism on a node into a locking or closed position about the deployment cable. In an embodiment for retrieval and/or detachment operations, the system may also be configured to automatically detect the position of a node and remove the node from the deployment line by actuating the direct attachment mechanism into an open or unlocked position. Other devices besides a node may be attached and detached from the deployment line if they are coupled to one or more direct attachment mechanisms.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a vessel (200, 300, 400, 600) comprising: a cargo transloading system, comprising: a crane (210, 310, 410, 610) supporting a cargo handling device (318, 418), and a counterweight arrangement (450, 550). The cargo handling device (318, 418) being rotatable about a vertical axis of rotation arranged with a first fixed offset in a first side direction with regard to a first vertical plane coinciding with a longitudinal centre axis (CA) of the vessel (200, 300, 400, 600). The counterweight arrangement (450, 550) comprising a weight (452, 552, 652) which is movable such that the mass centre (554) of the weight (452, 552, 652) is laterally displaceable between a first end position (556, 656) in which the mass centre (554) is arranged in the vicinity of the first vertical plane and a second end position (558, 658) in which the mass centre (554) is arranged with a second offset in a second side direction opposite to the first side direction with regard to the first vertical plane. The counterweight arrangement (450, 550) being arranged to move the weight (452, 552, 652) while the cargo handling device (318, 418) is rotated about the axis of rotation as a function of the rotation angle (a). The present invention also relates to a corresponding method and a use of the vessel (200, 300, 400, 600).
Abstract:
