  • Publication number: 20230304248
    Abstract: Various aspects include devices, systems, and methods for securing an anchoring element to a seafloor. The methods may use a subsea anchorage installation system that may include a subsea grout supply assembly. The subsea grout supply assembly may include a variable volume grout storage chamber, a paddle, and a subsea grout pump. The variable volume grout storage chamber may be configured to transport dry grout to a seafloor. The variable volume grout storage chamber may include a water injection port configured to receive water for mixing with the dry grout on the seafloor. The variable volume grout storage chamber may also be configured to expand from a collapsed configuration as water is injected.

  • Publication number: 20020162986
    Abstract: A ball valve for a hydronic heating or cooling system, in which a purge port is integral with the valve body of the ball valve. The valve body that has an inlet and outlet port, and an interior passage configured to permit liquid to flow between the inlet and outlet ports. A ball element is supported within the valve body, the ball element having a flow passage extending there through, and the ball element being supported so that it can rotate from one position in which the liquid is able to flow through the flow passage, to a second position in which the liquid is unable to flow through the flow passage. An actuating shaft extends from the ball element through a first opening in the valve body to the exterior of the valve body. A handle connects to the actuating shaft for rotating the shaft and ball element.
