20120206922 | VISUAL WARNING DEVICE - An optical device for providing a visual warning indication is disclosed. The optical device includes a high intensity localised light source such as a laser diode and a diffuser for modifying a beam intensity distribution of the emitted light from the high intensity localised light source to generate diffused light. The device further includes a collimator for collimating the diffused light from the diffuser to provide collimated light for emission from an output aperture to provide the visual warning indication. The beam intensity distribution of the emitted light is modified by the diffuser to generate a substantially uniform intensity distribution of the collimated light over the entire output aperture. | 08-16-2012 |
20110290360 | CLAMP AND WRAPPING ASSEMBLY FOR PATCHING A PIPE RUPTURE - The present invention relates to a clamp that can be used for repairing a rupture in a pipe. The clamp includes a wrapping assembly comprising strapping that at least partially extends about the pipe, an adjustment device that is suitably in form of a claps for adjusting the effective length of the strapping about the pipe and a tensioning device that is suitably in the form an over centre lever mechanism that is operable to place the wrapping assembly under different tensions. | 12-01-2011 |
20100132538 | MINESWEEPING DEVICE - A magnetic signature minesweeping device comprising a water driven turbine power generator and a superconducting material magnet, wherein the turbine power generator is arranged, in use, to supply a driving current for the superconducting material magnet when the minesweeping device is towed through the water. In a further embodiment, a control unit is arranged, in use, to control the magnetic output of the superconducting magnet and the power output of the turbine power generator. Furthermore, a method of minesweeping using the device and an array of the devices is disclosed. | 06-03-2010 |
