Abstract: A rotor lock assembly for locking a rotor of a wind turbine. The rotor lock assembly has at least one relocatable rotor lock. The relocatable rotor lock has a housing, a bushing element, a pin shaft position within the bushing element, and a locking mechanism. The housing includes a mounting portion adapted for mounting to a bearing housing adjacent to a rotor lock plate of the rotor.

Abstract: An oil recovery device having a downwardly and rearwardly traveling oil abosrbing belt, to pick up oil on a body of water. The belt travels around an upwardly and forwardly positioned drum to be engaged by a porous squeeze belt to remove the oil from the oil absorbing belt. Rearwardly of the belt is an oil collecting enclosure to collect oil not recovered by the oil absorbing belt. The device has a downwardly and rearwardly inclined bow ramp over which an oil/water liquid passes into a through passage in the device, and water having oil separated therefrom passes out longitudinally spaced bottom openings, with the flow through these openings being controlled by closure doors.

Abstract: A connecting assembly comprising a pair of substantially identical connecting members having a base ring connected to an upper tubular inflatable portion of an oil containment boom, and a depending arm adapted to engage a depending skirt of an oil containment boom. Each base ring comprises first and second interlocking members in the form of grooves and flanges adapted to interfit with one another in order to attach two segments of oil containment booms together. When offset angularly and placed face to face, with the groove of the final connecting member aligned with the flange of the second connecting member, and the flange of the first connecting member aligned with the groove of the second connecting member, two connecting members may be rotated toward one another and locked together. External fastening devices located on the arm depending from the base ring prevent counter-rotation which would disassemble the connecting members.
