Abstract

A scaffold securing device and methods for securing conventional scaffolding to a linear or a curvilinear surface.

IPC Classes  ?

• E04G 5/04 - Means for fastening, supporting, or bracing scaffolds on or against building constructions
• E04G 3/20 - Scaffolds essentially supported by building constructions, e.g. adjustable in height supported by walls
• E04G 3/24 - Scaffolds essentially supported by building constructions, e.g. adjustable in height specially adapted for particular parts of buildings or for buildings of particular shape, e.g. chimney stacks or pylons

Abstract

A scaffold securing device and methods for securing conventional scaffolding to a linear or a curvilinear surface.

IPC Classes  ?

• E04G 1/36 - Scaffolds for particular parts of buildings or buildings of particular shape, e.g. for stairs, cupolas, domes
• E04G 1/38 - Scaffolds partly supported by the building

Abstract

A flow-diverger feed inlet distributor and/or a vertical, partially perforated baffle for separating vapor and liquid in a horizontal vessel. The flow-diverger feed inlet distributor comprises multiple pairs of straight-vertical vanes positioned in the horizontal vessel adjacent a feed inlet opening at one head/end of the vessel. The partially perforated baffle is positioned in the vessel adjacent the feed inlet opening.

IPC Classes  ?

• B01D 19/00 - Degasification of liquids
• F15D 1/00 - Influencing the flow of fluids

IPC Classes  ?

• B01D 45/08 - Separating dispersed particles from gases or vapours by gravity, inertia, or centrifugal forces by utilising inertia by impingement against baffle separators
• B01D 47/02 - Separating dispersed particles from gases, air or vapours by liquid as separating agent by passing the gas or air or vapour over or through a liquid bath

Abstract

A contoured branch fitting for reducing stress in a header pipe caused by acoustic induced vibration that includes a maximum width, a maximum length, a thickness that is greater along the maximum length and a constant radius between the branch connection and the header connection.
