Patent number: 6309517Abstract: This invention comprises a driven conveyor for transporting work pieces into one or more flood plating cells for electroplating a metal onto the planar surfaces and surfaces of the through holes of the work piece. An electrolyte solution is pumped by one or more recirculating pumps into the flood cell at such a rate as to maintain the liquid at a desired level covering the anodes and work pieces while work pieces are moved through the cells. One or more power sources provide direct current to the anodes and to the electrified contactors to transmit electrical current to the work pieces. The electrified contactors are positioned across the path of the work piece and spaced outside of the flood cell such that the electrolyte solution does not contact the contactors. Plating will occur so long as the work piece is in contact with one or more of the electrified contactors and the electrolyte.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2000Date of Patent: October 30, 2001Assignee: Oliver Sales CompanyInventors: Richard Carroll Condra, Richard Malcolm Johnson

Patent number: 5373925Abstract: An underwater deployment and storage apparatus for a diving bell or the like has a reel assembly (7) with spaced flanges (9,10) to contain an umbilical services assembly (5) wound around a hub (7A) of the reel. A rotary union (12) mounted in the hub has a fixed assembly or static line (11) about which the hub rotates. The fixed assembly receives services such as gases, liquids, electricity, fibre optics and the like and feeds to a rotatable assembly connected with the hub. The umbilical services are coupled to one of the umbilical. A first drive motor rotates the reel in either direction. A second drive motor and fairlead (6) extract from or rewind the umbilical onto the reel. Both drive motors are synchronized under controls to exert and maintain either a tractive or a drag force on the run of the umbilical.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 1993Date of Patent: December 20, 1994Assignee: Ocean Technical Services LimitedInventors: Roger J. Handford, Malcolm Johnson
