Patent EP-0677008-B1 (EP)
Inventor: KORSGAARD JENS
IPC: B63B27/34
Filed: 1993-12-29
Granted: 1998-12-02
Abstract: A vessel with a mooring recess on the bottom of the hull moors to a submerged buoyant mooring element anchored to the ocean bottom by hoisting the mooring element from a stowed position at a depth of net neutral buoyancy of the mooring element and its anchoring system into contact with the mooring recess. The mooring operation is completed safely, quickly, and positively by rapidly withdrawing seawater into the hull through an opening in the mooring recess so as to reduce the hydrostatic pressure acting on the top of the mooring element as the element comes into contact with the hull of the vessel. The pressure reduction is sufficient to shift the mooring element and its anchoring system from a net negative to a net positive buoyancy condition at the keel depth of the vessel. The seawater may be withdrawn by a high capacity pump that is either specifically installed for this purpose or is part of a bow thruster system of a type commonly found on large vessels. Alternative, or additional, seawater suction apparatus includes an evacuated hermetic chamber having a valve opening into the mooring recess. The mooring recess may be coaxial with a vertical well in the hull, in which case water in the well may be drained into an empty hold through a valve opening into the well near the bottom of the hull. The mooring element has an upper part that makes sealing contact with the hull of the vessel and a lower part that is connected to the anchor lines. At least one bearing mounted between the parts permit the upper part to rotate relative to the lower part, so that the vessel may weathervane in response to wind, wave, and current forces.

Abstract: A flexible and substantially non-resilient package (1) containing a number of three-dimensional objects (50). The package is such that multiple packages are stacked on top of one another. The package includes a flexible substantially rectangular container (2) comprising opposing top and bottom walls (10, 11) and two pairs of opposing side walls (12, 13, 14, 15), all of which are joined together to form an interior chamber (3) for containing the non-rectangular objects. The three-dimensional objects to be contained, such as soap bars, are substantially rigid and non-rectangular. The objects have two non-planar opposing oblong faces (51, 52). The faces are connected by a pair of opposing major peripheral edges (53, 54) and a pair of opposing minor peripheral edges (55, 56) with the minor peripheral edges being smaller than the major peripheral edges. The objects are placed within the container in face to face relation with the major and minor peripheral edges of each object being parallel. The objects are constrained within the package so that movement of the objects with respect to one another and with respect to the container is substantially limited. Thereafter, multiple packages can be stacked on top of one another with the objects resting on their minor peripheral edges and the load of the objects can be transmitted through columns of stacked objects.

Abstract: A butterfly valve assembly of plastic material for use in a plastic piping system. The valve body is made from thermoplastic wherein the valve seat has a hard core of phenolic or another plastic and a resilient cover. The plastic valve body utilizes a retainer ring in its construction to maintain pressure on the valve seat which aids in sealing the valve closure thereagainst. The closure disc may be of metal or plastic depending on the service contemplated. The closure disc is retained in the valve body by a lower valve stem which is affixed in the valve body to permit free rotation of the closure disc thereon and an upper valve stem which includes a central retainer ring and is supported by a housing on the valve body. The housing has a bushing that seats against the retainer ring and a tubular plug which seats in the housing exerting pressure against the bushing, and thus, against the central retainer ring to assist in blow-out protection. The tubular plug is sealed by an internal o-ring to the upper valve stem. The upper and lower valve stems are sealed to the hard core body of the valve seat. The valve seat is sealed in the valve body by a pair of o-rings on opposite sides of the valve stems. The upper valve stem is keyed to rotate the closure disc by a handle arrangement. The valve is operable through 360 DEG  range and has a locking pin to hold the valve fully open, or fully closed, or at various intermediate positions. The valve may be installed in either direction in a piping system.
