Abstract: A device for cooling and lubricating a subsea device (1) which includes an electric rotary machine (4) and a fluid-rotation machine (6-8) drive-connected (5) thereto, which electric rotary machine (4) has a lubrication/cooling circuit includes a cooler (11) exposed towards the surrounding seawater, and where the fluid-rotation machine (6-8) has a fluid pressure at the end facing towards the electric rotary machine (4). The lubrication/cooling circuit (12, 11, 14) is pressure-impacted by the fluid pressure at one point (19, 20) in the lubrication/cooling circuit outside the fluid-rotation machine (6-8).

Abstract: A foundation for masts, posts, pillars, etc., wherein the foundation has a foundation tube (3) which is lowered into a pre-drilled hole (2) in the ground (1), where the pre-drilled hole has a diameter larger than the diameter of the tube (3) and where at least the space between tube (3) and ground (1) is filled with a casting mixture (8), e.g. concrete, a tube (3) is used which is designed with perforations (4) in its lower area. The foundation tube (3) is equipped with a coating which gives the tube protection against corrosion, and possibly also an electrical insulation. The coatings can have a rough surface in order to create the best possible adhesion to the casting mixture. In order to ensure that the coated foundation tube (3) is safely lowered into the hole, it is first lined with a casing (13), which is removed during or immediately after the casting.

Abstract: A heat shield which is attached to a heatable roller in a stretching machine for the treatment of felt and wire cloths is designed to have channels for the heating medium extending in the machine direction. The ducts may be grouped in sections having a connection to an inlet and outlet manifold. Each section is attached to a by-pass. In this way a heating medium can be fed into the shield in controlled portions over the longitudinal direction of the shield thus obtaining the possibility of control and regulation of the temperature profile over the cross-section of the band.

Abstract: To obtain an enhanced evening out of differences in temperature on a roller surface, it is proposed to establish or to make a roller such that a buffer layer of oil is formed against the inside of the roller surface. This buffer layer is heated by means of a heat exchanger in which oil flows. The heat exchanger is made having open flow connection with the buffer layer.

Abstract: A stretching machine for treating removable belts supported on rollers, such as felts and wires in papermaking machines, comprises two rollers, over which the belt is trained in a loop. A heated belt contact structure has a contact surface adapted to contact the belt on the outside of the loop and between the rollers. A press roller is adapted to make press contact with the belt on the inside of the loop opposite the belt contact structure. The belt contact structure comprises a glide contact surface and a roller, the press roller acting against this latter roller.

Abstract: In an assembly for heat treatment of an endless web, comprising two rotatable rollers of which at least one roller is heatable, there is provided between the two rotatable rollers a heatable glide surface, stationary relative to the direction of movement for the web, designed to make contact with the outside of the endless web that circulates in the web loop. In this manner the web may be heat treated simultaneously on both sides. The glide surface enables the heat treatment of both sides of the web without using rollers requiring excessive space, thus also permitting the heat treatment of very short endless webs, which previously have had to be reversed and driven twice through the assembly to achieve heat treatment on both sides.

Abstract: A filter sector for a filter disk of a rotating filter, including folded or currugated means having ridges and valleys extending in a longitudinal direction of said means to form filtrate channels, and a filtering medium covering said means. Said means includes at least two elements (9, 10), each having parallel riges (12, 11') and valleys (11, 12') and said at least two elements are located in an at least partly overlapping relationship, such that filtrate channels (13) of one element (9) intersect with filtrate channels (14) of the other element (10). Preferably, the filter sector includes two at least substantially equally shaped elements and said elements are disposed such that there is communication between filtrate channels (13, 14) of said elements (9, 10) in zones of said partly overlapping relationship.

Abstract: A spray tube nozzle adapted to be cleaned during its operation. The nozzle includes a nozzle head having an inlet connectable to a conduit and an outlet for spraying liquid. Within the nozzle head is located a rotatable element defining a through-hole. The through-hole is shaped in such a way that the opening at one end is of relatively small cross-section and at the opposite end of a relatively large cross-section. The rotatable element is sealingly arranged in the nozzle head and has an external groove. The rotatable element can be positioned in at least a first rotational position to facilitate flow of spraying liquid from the conduit, to the nozzle inlet, and through the through-hole in the rotatable element, to the nozzle outlet for forming spray jets at the outlet. A second rotational position allows liquid to be flushed through the conduit by flow of the spraying liquid from the inlet, through the groove, and exiting the nozzle through a flush hole.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pump unit comprising a liquid filled electric motor with a house and with a vertical driving shaft extending downwards, a pump comprising a pump house, and a pump portion which is connected with a driving shaft, and a chamber around said driving shaft, between the motor and the pump with a mechanical packing between motor and chamber. The pump unit is characterized by the fact that the motor house and the pump house are combined to a press shell which is closed to the ouside. The chamber has a pressure equalizing connection with a first place in the pump. The liquid filled motor house has a pressure equalizing connection with a second place in the said pump where the pressure is higher than at said first place.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vertical submersible pump assembly, comprising a pump assembly casing which contains a hydraulic drive motor with a drive shaft. On the pump assembly casing a pump house is secured, and a pump rotor which is connected with the pump shaft and provided in the pump house, a transport conduit from the pump house, which transport conduit extends above the pump medium, and two drive medium conduits from the above said pump medium and down to the pump assembly casing. The vertical submersible pump assembly is characterized by the fact that the pump house is divided radially outside the pump rotor, the external ring shaped pump house portion being connected with the transport conduit. Each drive medium conduit comprises a releasable conduit means which when removed permits a unit compressing pump assembly casing with the drive motor, the pump rotor and the inner pump house portion to be pulled up.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vertical submersible pump assembly comprising a centrifugal pump assembly which comprises a centrifugal pump with a rotor and a pump casing, and a drive motor connected with the pump rotor by a drive shaft. A drain chamber surrounds the drive shaft and is sealed off in the direction of the pump rotor and the drive motor by the aid of respective shaft seals. The invention is characterized by the fact that the centrifugal pump has a dual inlet, that the pump casing forms the bottom of the drain chamber and contains the seals against the pump rotor, and that the drain chamber is shaped with a pocket extending down into the upper casing inlet.

Abstract: A screw press, and more particularly a pressurized screw press with a driving end, is pivotally mounted at its driving end and rests in a cradle at the other end. A pivotal bearing provided at the driving end of the screw press has a clearance for vertical movement in a fixed axis of rotation. By the aid of this mounting breakage of the screw press casing is avoided when operating conditions comprise varying pressures and temperatures.
