Abstract: The cleaning kit includes a cloth clam-shell style case and one or more removable tool inserts, tethered within the case interior. The tool inserts securely hold the various cleaning tools and implements of the cleaning kit. The inserts include a plurality of tool retaining features that securely hold the various tool implements via a friction fit mechanism. The retaining features secure the various implements, but allow the implements to be readily removed from the inserts. Each tray also includes a plurality of “push tabs” or “push levers” that assist in retrieving tool implements from the inserts. The push levers are manually pushed and deflect to engage and dislodge the particular cleaning implements from the insert. The inserts are tethered to the case by a nylon strap that allows the insert trays to be exposed like pages in a book when the case is opened.

Abstract: A microtube cluster burner (1) comprises a multitude of ducts (41) extending through fluid plenums (31, 32, 33). Discharge means (51, 52) fluidly connect the plenums to the ducts. At least one of the ducts (41) is provided with at least two discharge means (51, 52) for discharging fluid from a plenum (31, 32) into the duct at at least two different longitudinal positions of the duct.

Abstract: A foil system is used with a towed marine cable array to provide downward, upward or lateral lift to the array. The foil system can be coupled with the cable and configured to bias the submerged payload toward a target position. The foil system can include a group of foil sections each having a leading edge collectively defining an angle of attack, and a group of through-cables supporting the group of foil sections within the foil system. A subset of through-cables of the group of through-cables are arranged through front halves of the group of foil sections. This subset of through-cables can be selectively tensionable, and manipulatable to define a tensioned one of the subset of through-cables as being offset from a chord that is defined between the leading edge and a trailing edge of any of the foil sections. The foil system can thus induce one or more angles of attack for the group of foil sections, based on a rotational constraint defined by the tensioned one of the through-cables.
