Abstract: Automatic release system on a supply- or tug-vessel, comprising a rotational towing hook (10) supported on a vertical axel (16), for receipt of a towing hawser (12), and a releasing unit for releasing the towing hawser (12) from the towing hook (10). A registration unit (14) is installed above the towing hook (10) working area, said registration unit (14) being a tiltable or liftable hoop plate, where the registration unit (14), under influence of vertical angular movement in the towing hawser's (12) horizontal direction in relation to the towing hook (10), is arranged to trigger release of the releasing unit.

Abstract: Icebreaker (10) for a vessel (12), where the icebreaker (10) is connected to a bow (12a) of a vessel (12) for breaking up solid ice (40) floating on a water surface, the icebreaker (10) comprises a central part (14) sliding on a first side of the ice (40) and two or more side parts (16) sliding on an opposite part of the ice (40). The centre part (14) and the side parts (16) extend in parallel forward and works against each other when breaking the ice (40) to prevent the ice (40) from lifting, wherein a lower edge of the side parts (16), being in contact with the ice (40), is narrow and sharp to initiate breaking lines (50) in the ice (40), and the centre part (14) comprises a forward protruding cam structure (14a) to break the ice (40) between the side parts (16).
