A tool to stop the flow of water through an activated fire protection sprinkler head. This tool is designed to be a heavy duty, simple to operate mechanism capable of deactivating fire preventing sprinkler heads quickly. By simply turning the outer housing of the tool, by hand or by means of an adjustable extension pole, shut-off levers of this tool will be moved apart within the bracket of the sprinkler head until co-action between the bracket and one of the levers forces the other lever, preferably one bearing a shut-off gasket, against the open water orifice in the sprinkler head, thereby preventing the flow of water through it.

A method for a short-term prediction of future ship motion in open water to furnish visual cueing information that can be remotely presented to a pilot during an aircraft landing is described. Two sets of samples of the sea surface geometry along a radial azimuth line from a ship as a function of elevation of a sensor are first acquired. These are compensated to remove the components due to the ship's motion. Two wave traces are then separately derived in Cartesian format from the two sets of acquired samples. These wave traces are subjected to a Fast Fourier Transform to detect the amplitudes and phases of the individual wavelength components. The direction of the wavelength components is determined using a measure of their phase change in the scan direction during the time interval between the two scans together with their measured wavelength. The amplitude, direction and phase of each component is utilized together with the known motion characteristics of the moving ship in order to derive a short-term prediction of future ship motion in the time domain. A quiescent period of the ship motion is located by comparing the short-term prediction with the pre-defined operating limit criteria. Finally, a message signal is transmitted to the pilot of the aircraft indicating Time-to-Land and the duration of the quiescent period.

A power generation system is provided that can capture and convert kinetic energy from waves in open water into hydraulic or electrical energy. The system includes one or more platforms that include buoyant arms which extend outwardly from the platform for interaction with waves passing around and beneath the platform. The arms are pivotally secured to the platform and are capable of moving between points above and below the still water level in order to more effectively contact, i.e., float on, the waves as they pass. Opposite the waves, the arms are operably connected to a hydraulic system in order that the fluid in the hydraulic system is effectively pumped by the motion of the arms as a result of the movement of arms resulting from their interaction with the waves. In turn, the hydraulic fluid pumped by the arms serves to operate a hydraulic motor that drives an electric power generator that provides an easily transportable source of power that can be directed to any suitable power transfer station.

Periscope Swim Goggles are swimmer's goggles with a periscope situated above the water line that projects the view that is ahead of the swimmer through a fiber optic cable to a viewer located on the goggle's eyepiece. Generally, an open-water swimmer using the free style or crawl stroke must occasionally sight on a landmark to swim toward. Periscope Swim Goggles would enable the swimmer to continually swim directly along the desired path without lifting the head for sighting. Conventional swimming goggles are typically comprised of two eyepieces contoured and gasketed for an air-tight fit around each eye socket and an elastic strap that wraps around the head holding the eyepieces tight to the face. In one embodiment of the invention, the periscope is positioned and secured at the back of the head by the elastic strap of the goggles. The fiber optic cable leaves the periscope and follows the elastic strap to the viewer which is mounted to the front of the eyepiece.

The two forces used are gravity and the atmospheric pressure. Gravity initiates the power phase by causing the water to fall from the elevated sealed water tank 10 to turn the turbine 32. The water lowers to 33.95 feet above ground level within the sealed water tank 10. A vacuum forms above the water. The water flows from the turbine into the elevated open water tank 46 to the level whereby its water outlet valve 26B opens. This affords a passage back into the elevated sealed water tank 10, through the check valve 40 and the manual shut-off valve 42. This initiates the recovery phase. The atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi on the elevated open water tank 46 forces the water back into the sealed water tank 10 to relieve the vacuum. This pressure is capable to move the water up to 33.95 feet. Here it has only to move it up to 26.95 feet, realizing a 20.6 percent reserve force. With the water level again attaining maximum height in the sealed water tank 10, it is again released to repeat the cycle.
