Method and equipment of steel rope quality diagnostics (JPO 5941549 ; KIPO 10-1895301)

This invention is intended to use for diagnostics of various ropes in lifting equipment. Aim of invention – to create new and quite simple non-destructive method for rope quality diagnostics and estimate special equipment for realization of such method. Proposed method is based on obtaining fact of broken rope wires on rope surface.

Plate type biofilter with cappilar system (EP 2441509)

The purpose of the present invention is to improve the structure and charge humidification system of a treatment device, extend the operating duration of the biologically activated carrier material being used, enhance the effectiveness of air treatment and reduce filter’s aerodynamic resistance and cost.
