  • Patent number: 8215889
    Abstract: A high current cursor comprises a outer frame in which a center carriage travels. The center carriage travels between the top and bottom of the outer frame. Movement of the center carriage is limited within the outer frame constraints and its own locking mechanism. Center carriage carries a bend restrictor for an umbilical or lift line. When the center carriage travels down to a predetermined position within the high current cursor, equipment is allowed to exit the high current cursor or is retrieved back into the high current cursor when the bend restrictor reaches a predetermined position within the outer frame, e.g. at its lowest point, allowing dispersal and/or retrieval without obstruction back to a fixed recovery point.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5021507
    Abstract: The addition to urethane prepolymers of low molecular weight polymers formed from ethylenically unsaturated monomers which do not contain active hydrogen provides a hot melt adhesive which can be readily coated at a viscosity of 3000 to 50,000 cps. at 120.degree.C. without the need for additional tackifiers or plasticizers and which has improved initial cohesive strength as well as improved strength after aging of the cured bond. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the ethylenically unsaturated monomers are polymerized in the non-isocyanate containing components of the isocyanate terminated prepolymer.
