Definitions

mooring lines have been handled primarily on large winch-driven single drums. Such a drum must often carry extensive lengths of the line it holds. It must also be able to pull with sufficient force to draw up a mooring line to the desired tension, often several hundred thousand pounds of force.
the same line-carrying drum, equipped with a braking system, is usually also required to provide the braking or holding force after the desired mooring tension is achieved.
the wedge gripper means When the wedge gripper means is combined with a winch means for mounting to a platform, with the winch means having the ability to draw in and hold the line up to a tensile force less than the breaking strength of the line, the combined apparatus can draw in, hold, pay out and rapidly release a mooring line.
the pontoons 12 can be selectively opened to sea water or can be pumped dry in any usual or preferred manner (using equipment not shown), depending on whether it is desired to initially have the platform or vessel 10 float with the pontoons submerged or float on the surface of the supporting body of water.
the platform 10 is also provided with a source of electrical energy (not shown) of any usual or preferred type. All of the structure described to this point is well known in the prior art and forms no part of the present invention per se.
a mooring system with eight lines.
eight separate single drum storage winches 30 are provided to aid the eight corresponding traction winches 40 with which the storage winches 30 are associated and for accumulation of line handled by the mooring system.
Two such storage winches 30 are mounted inside of each of the hollow vertical support columns 16.
one of each pair of winches 30 is mounted on a lower transversely extending winch support frame 32, while the other winch of the pair is mounted at right angles to the first whinch on an upper transversely extending winch support frame 34.
the grip body 102 has a pair of ears 112 at its upper corners.
To each ear 112 is connected (in Fig. 8 this construction is shown as a side view for only the right ear (as seen in Fig. 7a), but it is present on both) a pair of release links 116, one on the front and one on the back side of each ear 112.
the lower end of the pair of release links 116, 116 is connected to the ear 112 by a pin 113.
Each upper end of each pair of release links 116 is connected to a cam 119 on a cam shaft 118.
the anchors 84 can then be set, one pair at a time.
the anchors 84 making up each pair are those which are connected to mooring lines 38 in direct opposition to each other.
the anchors 84 and 84 as seen in the left and right lower corners of Fig. 1 will be set at the same time so that the net effect on the positioning of the rig 10 will be negligible.
