  • Publication number: 20230107299
    Abstract: Fender arrangement for docking a marine vessel (1) with a boat landing (2) of a marine offshore structure (3) such as a wind power plant, including at least one fender unit (12, 13) composed of elastically deformable material and provided with a receiving recess (18) for a docking rail (5) of said boat landing (2). The fender arrangement is especially characterized in that fender unit (12, 13) exhibits an internal deformation control cavity (20) positioned at a distance from the receiving recess (18) within the fender unit (12, 13) and extending at least along the width of said receiving recess (18), controlling deformation of the fender unit (12, 13) into forming a gripping hold of a docking rail (5) by compression of the internal deformation control cavity (20) when the fender unit (12, 13) is pressed against the docking rail (5).

  • Publication number: 20030109855
    Abstract: A device for reconditioning an internal body organ having or risking a functional failure or impairment associated with a fluid collection therein comprises a tube having a proximal end adapted for connection to a vacuum source, and a distal end portion having a plurality of openings. A chamber surrounds the distal end portion of the tube and the openings therein. A flexible material occupies said chamber and forms fluid connections between a selected part of an external surface of the chamber and the openings of the distal end portion of the tube. The selected part of the external surface of the chamber is adapted for contacting an external or internal surface portion of the internal body organ. Thereby, interstitial fluid of the internal body organ adjoining said selected part of the external surface of the chamber is sucked off from the internal body organ.
