81 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A TOWED VESSEL SUITABLE FOR TRANSPORTING LIQUIDS | US14047663 | 2013-10-07 | US20140059979A1 | 2014-03-06 | Allen Szydlowski; Ian Szydlowski |
A towed vessel suitable for containing and transporting various liquids is disclosed. The vessel further comprises various features useful in the transportation, navigation, and storage of the towable vessel, both when in use for transporting fluids and when transported in an emptied state. Such features include navigational and positioning devices and methods, power supply devices and methods, and means for filling, inflating, emptying, and deflating a non-rigid, towed vessel.

82 | Stable Floating Structure wit Limited Oscillations | US12224359 | 2007-02-26 | US20110192333A1 | 2011-08-11 | Theodoros Lilas; Evanthia Antoniou; Athananos Vatistas; Konstantina Lila; Artemis Maglara; Nikitas Kikhtakos; Christos Syrseloudis |
The stable floating platform is constituted from (as shown in FIG. 1) four peripheral floaters (2) and one central (1) connected to each other with tubular grid (3). On top of the central floater a metal tower (4) is supported, with a wind generator (5). In the interior of the central floater (as shown in FIG. 2) a desalination unit (6) is installed with the essential equipment, the batteries and the control equipment (7). The peripheral floaters have the ability to store and input-output water, altering in this way the natural frequency of the structure (platform), avoiding thus resonance with the sea waves. The control of the water is made with valves that feed compressed air into the compartment that contains water, regulating thus the volume of the water in the cylinders. The floating structure presents only limited oscillations under sea waves and so it is possible for the wind generator (and/or the desalination unit) to operate on it. | ||||||

What has been invented is a series of scientific applications of the wideface energy converter device, be it in the form of a wideface solar heat receiver or a wideface fluid impeder device. The wider is the solar heat receiver, the more solar power is available for conversion. The wider is the sail of the boat, the more wind is available to push the boat. Wherefore, the wideface solar trap made up of multi-layer transparent roofs covering a heat insulated box is used to heat up a radiator tubings that contain water. The multilayer transparent roof, having spaces in between sheets, prevents solar heat from backing out hence the trap becomes hoter and hoter because the inner sheet is not in contact with the cold wind. This solar trap is now used to heat up radiator pipes of compressed air coming from a gas turbine engine and then returned back to the exhaust turbine of same engine. Applying the principle of the wind sail, the turbine blades of the compressor and the turbine blades of the exhaust turbine are made wideface as much as possible to produce maximum impedance against the expanding exhaust hot air and to produce maximum push upon the fresh air being compressed. This wideface fluid impeder is now expanded into an underwater platform from One Acre or much more and attached to floating hotels, large/small boats, and floating sea walls, to prevent oscillation by the surfs. | ||||||
