  • Patent number: 10436072
    Abstract: This application provides elastomeric shock absorbers for turbine transportation. Example engine mounts may include a first plate, a second plate, and an elastomeric bearing positioned between the first plate and the second plate. The engine mount may be configured to absorb or dampen vibration along an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis of a turbine during transportation.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9784062
    Abstract: A device for cutting and plugging underwater pipes, the device includes a frame with one or more clamps for securing the device to the pipe. Attached to the frame is an arm having a first end and a second end. The first end is attached to an actuation element that in combination with a support bar can pivot and extend the arm. A motor is attached to the second end of the arm. A saw blade and pipe plug is concentrically mounted to the motor. The motor powers the saw blade to cut the pipe transversely. The arm then positions the pipe plug concentric with the cut pipe, and in combination with rotation of the motor, plugs the cut pipe with the pipe plug.

  • Patent number: 9359959
    Abstract: A system includes a gas turbine system that has a turbine, a combustor, and a compressor having an air intake. The air intake is configured to supply an air flow to the compressor. The system also includes a fluid injection system that has a fluid wash system configured to inject a wash fluid into the gas turbine system via the air intake. The fluid wash system includes an injector configured to inject the wash fluid into the gas turbine system and an anti-icing system configured to inject an anti-icing fluid into the gas turbine system via the air intake. The anti-icing system is configured to inject the anti-icing fluid into the gas turbine system via the injector.
