Sealing Arrangement for a Connection Between Two Connecting Elements of an Offshore Structure and Method for Producing Same
Seal arrangement for a joint of two joint elements, in particular realized as a monopile and a transition piece, of an offshore structure, preferably an offshore wind energy installation, in particular a substructure thereof, in which, for the purpose of producing a stable joint, an upper joint element and a lower joint element are inserted into each other in a clamping manner by means of at least one seal unit, comprising one of the joint elements and the at least one seal unit fixed to the joint element, in such a manner that the seal unit, in a joining position, is arranged between an inner joint surface of one joint element and an outer joint surface of the other joint element, at least one seal unit having at least one elastic sealing element, which extends in the circumferential direction around the entire circumference and the thickness (D) of which is greater than the thickness (D) of an adjoining seal unit region and method for producing a seal arrangement.
Adapter frame
An adapter frame for use when installing or renovating a basin in relation to a surface, the basin including a basin body with basin top, basin frame and basin cover. The adapter frame includes a skirt with an inward facing flange attached to an upper part of the skirt, an inner dimension of the flange being larger than a corresponding outer dimension of the basin frame and an inner dimension of at least a lower part of the skirt being larger than a corresponding outer dimension of the basin top. The adapter frame further includes a broad outward facing flange foot attached to a lower part of the skirt.
Notched Compactor Cleaner Finger
A cleaner finger assembly for cleaning compactor teeth on a compactor wheel of a compactor machine includes at least one cleaner finger assembly. The cleaner finger assembly includes a cleaner finger stack and a plurality of fasteners for mounting the cleaner finger stack. The cleaner finger stack includes at least one cleaner finger with a longitudinal axis, a tip for engaging a compactor wheel surface, and a plurality of mounting apertures. The cleaner finger also includes a notch extending from an edge of the cleaner finger toward the longitudinal axis. The cleaner finger failing at the location of the notch when the cleaner finger tip is engaged by debris with a tension force greater than a tip anchor tension capacity of the finger tip anchoring mechanism.
Adapter Frame
It is disclosed an adapter frame (11) for use when installing or renovating a basin in relation to a surface, the basin including a basin body (11) with basin top (2), basin frame (7) and basin cover (9). The adapter frame (11) includes a skirt (111) with an inward facing flange (112) attached to an upper part of the skirt, an inner dimension of the flange (112) being larger than a corresponding outer dimension of the basin frame (7) and an inner dimension of at least a lower part of the skirt (111) being larger than a corresponding outer dimension of the basin top (2). The adapter frame further includes a broad outward facing flange foot (114) attached to a lower part of the skirt (111).
System for sealing a manhole riser ring assembly
A system and method are disclosed for sealing an annular manhole riser ring assembly. A generally flat, bendable liner includes a flat strip that is generally conformably engageable with an interior circumferential surface of the riser ring assembly. An outer surface of the liner strip carries a plurality of spacer elements that form a void between the generally flat liner strip and the engaged inner circumferential surface of the riser ring assembly. An expandable tensioning device is operated to press the riser ring assembly against the circumferential surface of the riser ring assembly. A flexible bonding substance is introduced into the void and allowed to set to seal the riser ring assembly.
Manhole comprising a device for safety closing and locking the manhole
A manhole includes a device for safely closing and locking the manhole, which has a cylinder with centering pins that is attached to a slab and is rotatable with an operating key acting on the pins, and further includes an anti-burglary block, which in locked position is positioned inside the cylinder and hides and protects an anti-theft bolt positioned inside a hole, which crosses the entire anti-burglary block and has a larger diameter at the front and the same diameter as the anti-theft bolt in the back, so as to receive the anti-theft bolt in a threaded spot in the inner wall of the cylinder and enable placement of the anti-theft bolt in the body of the anti-burglary block when totally tightened into the threaded spot, wherein the end of the anti-theft bolt, in closed position, is housed in a locking hole on a circular support of the cover.
INFLATABLE ACTIVE PACKER
An inflatable active packer includes: an inner steel pile; and a sleeve coaxially disposed outside the inner steel pile. The inner diameter of the sleeve is larger than the outer diameter of the inner steel pile. The length of the sleeve is less than or equal to the length of the inner steel pile. The sleeve includes an inner wall, and one end of the inner wall is provided with a guide lug. A strengthened clamping layer is attached to the inner wall of the sleeve. A rubber capsule is fixedly disposed in the middle of the strengthened clamping layer; two ends of the strengthened clamping layer are fixedly connected to the sleeve through a compression member. A mounting hole is disposed in the middle of the strengthened clamping layer. The sleeve includes a through hole coaxially with the mounting hole.
Closure systems, debris caps, holder devices, and related technologies
A cap assembly can include a cap holder device with a plug member and a cap holder. The cap holder device is positionable in an end of a conduit positioned along a roadway. The cap holder is carried by the plug member and includes a magnetic element and a connector. The connector is connectable to the magnetic element to the plug member such that the magnetic element is movable relative to the plug member so as to position the magnetic element for releasably holding a cap that covers the end of the conduit when the plug member is positioned in the conduit. The cap assembly can be a debris cap insertable in a conduit, an end of a pipe, or other opening.
FLOATING MANHOLE COVER ASSEMBLY
A manhole cover assembly comprises a base frame, the base frame comprising a base body and a base flange extending laterally outward from the base body. The assembly further comprises a top frame, the top frame comprising a top body disposed annularly about at least a portion of the base body, a top flange extending laterally outward from the top body, and a lip extending laterally inward from the top body.
