Patent GB-2499283-A (GB)
Title: Calibrated crush module
Inventor: STEVENS PETER ROMAIN
IPC: B25B23/15
Filed: 2012-10-22
Abstract: The module 5, designed to respond to a specific compressive force, includes a two-part deflection ring 25 consisting of upper and lower components and an outer casing 30. A fluid-filled capsule 40 is positioned between the lower component of the deflection ring and the outer casing. The module is placed under a nut, bolt head (e.g. 60, Figure 4), screw, rivet or cam-locking handle in an assembly that requires tightening to a specific force.

Filed: 2014-11-27
Abstract: An umbilical cable 4 containing an optical communication line 3 and a power feeding line 5 is connected to a subsea hub 1, aka a power and communication distribution module (PCDM). A wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) signal is transmitted over the optical communication line. A WDM demultiplexer 2 in the PCDM splits a received WDM signal into its component wavelengths. Each of the signals output by the demultiplexer is transmitted over a respective optical communication line 101-10n to a respective section 81-8n of a subsea production control system (SPCS) 9. Alternatively, each of the signals output by the demultiplexer is converted (111-11n, Fig. 2) to an electrical signal and the electrical signals (131-13n, Fig. 2) are transmitted to separate sections of the SPCS. The PCDM also distributes power 7 from the power feeding line to each of the sections of the SPCS. The PCDM may include a power boost module 6 for stepping up the voltage of the power feed.
