  • Patent number: 10060555
    Abstract: A load transferring subsea structure (10) for temporary guiding and permanently relieve forces within a pipe connection that is subjected to bending moments when connection is completed. A connector (3) keeps the pipe ends (E1, E2) together. The load transferring structure (10) includes one basically stationary structure (1) that retains a first pipe end (E1) and one basically manoeuvrable structure (2) that retains the second pipe end (E2). The second pipe end (E2) is to be connected to the first, stationary pipe end (E1). The stationary structure (1) includes portions (6) having predetermined configuration including fitted surfaces (6a, 6b) for interaction during mating with complementary portions (11, 12) having predetermined configuration including fitted surfaces (14, 15) on the mobile structure (2) for creation of a load path external of the pipe ends (E1, E2).

  • Publication number: 20120263541
    Abstract: A subsea structure for supporting pipes/pipe assemblies (2?) that are connected to subsea installations. The structure has a generally horizontal support member (5) for supporting said pipes/pipe assemblies. The horizontal support member is movably engaged with a generally vertical supporting member (2) at one or both ends thereof the vertical support member is anchored to a base member (3). In the vertical support member (2) a lifting mechanism with intermeshing ratchet dogs (32, 33) and elongate ratchets (12) is arranged, which is operated by a vertical screw (13).

  • Patent number: 5413315
    Abstract: Injection equipment for the supply of gas and/or particulate material in the form of powder, granules, chips or similar shapes to a liquid, for example a metal melt, includes a rotation body which is designed to be lowered down into the liquid and which is mounted on and driven via a shaft of a drive unit. The material and/or gas is supplied to the liquid through the rotation body via a coaxial bore in a shaft thereof. The rotation body has a cone-like or funnel-like design and is generally completely open at the bottom.
