| 20120061265 | LIFERAFT SYSTEM - The present invention relates to a liferaft system comprising a container containing an inflatable liferaft and means for inflating the liferaft by means of an inflating gas, preferably carbon dioxide or a mixture of gases, where the container furthermore contains means for heating the system. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20110039462 | INFLATABLE UNIT - The present invention relates to an inflatable liferaft comprising at least one inflatable flotation tube, said inflatable tube extending circumferentially for providing a substantially ring-shaped area, and a bottom element which is adapted to provide a bottom to the substantially ring-shaped area. Furthermore, at least two seating arrangements are arranged in the ring-shaped area. | 02-17-2011 |
| 20110011673 | INFLATABLE UNIT - The present invention relates to an inflatable unit for evacuation purposes, said inflatable unit comprising at least a first inflatable chamber ( | 01-20-2011 |
| 20100311292 | INFLATABLE LIFERAFT - The present invention relates to an inflatable liferaft comprising at least an inflatable first tube, an inflatable second flotation tube, said first and second flotation tubes being adapted to be arranged substantially above each other, said first and second flotation tubes extending circumferentially for providing a substantially ring-shaped area; and a bottom element which is adapted to provide a bottom to the substantially ring-shaped area. Furthermore, said first and second flotation tubes are arranged separately substantially above each other, and said first and second flotation tubes are mainly connected via said bottom element. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20100297897 | INFLATABLE LIFERAFT - The present invention relates to an inflatable liferaft comprising at least a first inflatable flotation tube layer, a second inflatable flotation tube layer, said first and second flotation tube layers being adapted to be arranged substantially above each other, said inflatable tube layers extending circumferentially for providing a substantially ring-shaped area, and a bottom element which is adapted to provide a bottom to the substantially ring-shaped area. Furthermore, each tube layer comprises at least two inflatable tubes, said inflatable tubes being connected to each other at their ends so that each tube layer extends continuously around the ring-shaped area. The present invention also relates to a method for assembling an inflatable liferaft as well as a method for manufacturing an inflatable tube for use in an inflatable liferaft. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20100213006 | Escape System for Emergency Evacuation - The invention relates to an improved escape system including a chute adapted to compensate for varying vertical distance. Elastic cords extend in a course of direction which progresses differently from vertically when the escape system has been launched and the chute is hanging vertically from the higher position to the lower position, such that tension is applied to the elastic cords. By the present invention it is realised that a longer elongation of the chute may be obtained without increasing the minimum length when the elastic cords extend in such a course of direction, because the cords hereby become longer than in a course of direction progressing straight and vertically. Since any elastic cord has a maximum strain which it may safely endure, a longer extent of such a cord subjected to maximum strain will result in a longer elongation, and hence longer maximum length while maintaining or even reducing the minimum length. One effect is therefore that the ability of the escape system to compensate for varying evacuation height is improved. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20090188017 | SENSOR EQUIPPED FLAME RETARDANT CLOTHING - A fire-fighter turnout coat having an outer flame retardant shell with exterior and interior sides, the shell layer having a dual layer of first and second materials woven together in a manner which allows the formation of void spaces between the first and second materials when the turnout coat is exposed to increasing heat, the first material generally having a polyparaphenylene isophthalamide meta-aramid polymer and the second material generally having a para-aramid polymer; a second inner thermal insulating layer having an interior side and comprising a woven or nonwoven material; a moisture barrier layer positioned between the outer shell and the inner insulating layer; and a thermal detector system having a first heat sensor positioned on the shell exterior side, the first sensor having a thermistor and a thermocouple, a second heat sensor positioned on the thermal layer interior side and having a thermistor, a first display positioned adjacent the first sensor on the shell layer exterior side, a second display positioned remotely from the first sensor on the shell layer exterior side, and a power supply, wherein the first and second sensors and the first and second displays are electrically interconnected with the power supply to communicate temperature change by light emission from the first and second displays, wherein the electrical interconnection is conductive textile ribbon. | 07-30-2009 |
