  • Publication number: 20240110672
    Abstract: A support device for an instrument on a loading/offloading tower of a tank of a ship is disclosed. The tower has multiple vertical masts linked to one another, pairwise, by struts extending on a strut axis, and a distal portion extending on a first axis, the distal portion being terminated by a first surface capable of forming a first surface contact with a strut extending on its strut axis substantially at right angles to the first axis. The installed first surface has a degree of freedom in rotation about the strut axis, a proximal portion extending on a second axis substantially at right angles to the first axis, linked to the distal portion. An installed fixing surface immobilized by fixing to the instrument has a degree of freedom in rotation about the second axis and a degree of freedom in translation on a third axis parallel to the second axis.

  • Patent number: 11214719
    Abstract: An anti-dust additive composition for industrial mortars, dry coatings, cements and tile adhesives, includes at least a hydrocarbon fluid, a surfactant and 0.01% to 5% wt of water, preferably from 0.01% to 2% wt, more preferably from 0.01% to 1% wt and even more preferably from 0.05% to 0.5% wt of water. A process of preparation of construction material includes the step of adding the anti-dust additive composition to a material powdery binder. The use of the anti-dust additive composition for decreasing the dust emission during the fabrication of construction material with a material powdery binder and/or during the use of the construction material is also disclosed.
