Patent EP-1106779-A3 (EP)
Inventor: POLLACK JACK
IPC: E21B19/00
Filed: 1999-03-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a vessel (1) comprising a riser and/or tendon (3,4) tensioning
construction. A connector, such as an arm or deck structure, is suspended from cables (12,13)
or pivot arms on the vessel. The connector carries two or more risers and/or tendons (3,4)
extending from a subsea structure to above water level. The free end of the cables (12,13) or
pivot arms is attached to a weight (16,17) for exerting a tensioning force on the riser which
is substantially decoupled from pitch, roll and heave motions of the vessel. One
embodiment of the vessel according to the invention is characterized in that the free
end of the tensioning member extends outside the hull of the vessel or in a well in
the vessel such as to be located below water level. Hereby the movements of the
weight upon pitch, roll or heave motions of the vessel are limited and additional
space on the vessel is made available for production or processing equipment. In one
embodiment the connector is carried by cables and sheaves (19,20) that are supported on two
spaced apart mounting arms (21,22) above deck level (24). Weight guiding elements may be
provided on the vessel or on the seabed or may be formed by the risers themselves
for preventing lateral movement of the weights and preventing damage to the risers.
Other embodiments comprise flexible lines as a tensioning member connected to the
seabed. To further reduce movements of the weights, the cables or pivot arms can be
attached to the connector at the side of the centre line of the vessel, opposite to the
side of the tensioning weight.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the data structure of a high-speed
retrievable table, especially to an information apparatus with a table
that can realize the longest prefix match search at high speed and that
can also perform operations at high speed such as the retrieval and
preparation of a table, or the addition, modification, and deletion of
table items. 
A retrieval key to be used for the retrieval of
a table is divided into a plurality of divided retrieval
keys consisting of a plurality of bit strings. Each divided
retrieval key corresponds to a retrieval
table. The first retrieval table is
retrieved by the divided retrieval key (A bits). If the final
result is obtained, the result is output unchanged.
If a pointer to a second retrieval table is obtained,
the second retrieval table is retrieved by the second
divided retrieval key (B bits). In this way, a retrieval
process continues using the divided retrieval keys.

Abstract: A mechanical-force sensor includes two piezoelectric
vibrators which are arranged such that stresses in mutually
opposite directions are applied thereto by a mechanical force
such as an acceleration. A current-voltage converter and signal-summing
circuit converts current signals that flow through the
two piezoelectric vibrators into voltage signals. A voltage-amplifier
and amplitude-limiter circuit amplifies a sum signal of
the two voltage signals, and provides a positive feedback of a
voltage signal that is in phase with the current signals, thereby
causing an oscillating operation. A phase difference-voltage
converter circuit generates a voltage signal that is proportional
to the phase difference between the voltage signals yielded by
the conversion. An amplifier and filter circuit DC-amplifies the
voltage signal and removes unwanted frequency components
therefrom.
