Topic review - Help identifying these davits

I hope this in the correct forum!

I am trying to identify the type of davits used on the Polish liners MS Batory and MS Pilsudski. They appear to be some sort of quadrant davit, but the frame that attaches to the deck looks almost semi-circular, rather than rectangular as on Titanic. These seem to be common on Italian built liners of that era, but I cannot find a good, closeup image.

Thanks in advance if anyone has any knowledge.
