HONEYCOMB STRUCTURAL HIGH-PRESSURE SET TANK AND A MANUFACTURING PROCESS THEREFOR
The present invention is directed to a new concept for a large-scale high-pressure Honeycomb Set Tank in an ISO container and for its manufacturing facilities. A process for manufacturing a plurality of honeycomb cells with a high degree of accuracy is also provided.
Vented Fitting for Pressure Vessel Boss
An apparatus is configured to be positioned between a boss and a shell of a pressure vessel. The boss includes a bore therethrough, and the bore has a longitudinal axis. The apparatus includes an annular body and a gas permeable feature. The annular body includes an inner surface configured to abut the boss and an outer surface configured to abut the shell. The annular body has opposite first and second ends relative to the longitudinal axis. The gas permeable feature is provided on the inner surface and extends at least from the first end to the second end. The disclosure also describes a pressure vessel including a shell, and boss, and an apparatus positioned between the boss and the shell. A method for forming a pressure vessel includes mounting a boss on a mandrel, positioning an annular fitting about a neck of the boss, forming a liner, and forming an outer shell.
Method and system for storage and transport of liquefied petroleum gases
A method for storage and transport of LPG on LPG carriers, in particular two cargoes of different LPG types on same shipment, having reliquefaction units in which vaporized gases are condensed and then returned into at least one cargo tank for the respective LPG cargo type. The method is further comprising: using the reliquefaction units, at a minimum one running, as to condense vapour from the first cargo type; passing the condensed vapour through a heat exchanger; simultaneously flowing vapour from the second cargo type through the heat exchanger as to condense vapour by means of heat exchanging with the condensed vapour; and returning the condensed vapours leaving the heat exchanger back into the respective cargo types. The present invention is also disclosing a system for storage and transport of LPG on LPG carriers.
CRYOSTAT FOR SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET SYSTEM
A cryostat for a superconducting magnet system is provided. The cryostat may include an outer vessel and an inner vessel suspended within the outer vessel. A space may be defined by the outer vessel and the inner vessel. The cryostat may include multiple first support elements and one or more second support elements. The strength of the first supporting element may be larger than that of the second support elements. The inner vessel and the outer vessel may be connected by two opposite ends of a first support element and two opposite ends of a second support element, respectively. The number of the first support elements in the lower part of the space is different from the number of the first support elements in the upper part of the space.
Heat transfer unit and method for prefabricated vessel
Vessel assemblies, heat transfer units for prefabricated vessels, and methods for heat transfer prefabricated vessel are provided. A heat transfer unit includes a central rod, and a plurality of peripheral rods surrounding the central rod and connected to the central rod. The plurality of peripheral rods are movable between a first collapsed position and a second bowed position, wherein in the second bowed position a midpoint of each of the plurality of peripheral rods is spaced from the central rod relative to in the first position. The heat transfer unit further includes a heat transfer element connected to one of the plurality of peripheral rods.

Portable, modular refrigeration device
The portable, modular refrigeration device includes a base member that supports a refrigeration cycle therein. The base member may be hemispherical in shape, and include a top peripheral edge that enables a pivoting, dome cover to attach thereon. The pivoting, dome cover is also hemispherical in shape, and is made of a translucent material so as to enable view of contents being stored there under. A removable tray is provided, and is seated on a lip provided in the base member. The lip is located below the peripheral edge. The removable tray features a plurality of slots that enable refrigerated air to be directed upwardly from the base member into the pivoting, dome cover.
PRESSURE VESSEL WITH DOME SUPPORTED DIAPHRAGM
A non-metallic pressure vessel is disclosed that includes a bottom dome having an upper wall defining an interface channel, a top dome having a lower wall defining a downwardly projecting securement flange dimensioned and aligned for vertical engagement within the interface channel of the bottom dome, and a flexible diaphragm retained within the interface channel of the bottom dome by the downwardly projecting flange of the upper dome.
Devices And Methods For Engaging Indexed Valve And Pressurized Canister Assembly With Collar And For Linear Actuation By Plunger Assembly Into Fluid Communication With Device For Regulating Drug Delivery
A valve assembly comprising a housing and a valve, the valve being disposed within the housing, a first indexed member integral to the housing, the first indexed member adapted to be complementary to a second indexed member, and a radio frequency identification device adapted to communicate with a radio frequency receiver, the valve being configured to align with a canister, seal the canister and open in a single movement. A drug containment device having said valve assembly is also disclosed.
REMOTE REGULATOR PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT TOOL AND METHOD USING SAME
A remote regulator adjustment tool that can be used to adjust an output pressure of a remote regulator. The remote regulator adjustment tool comprises a housing defining a first bore extending therethrough, an adjustor piston movably disposed within the first bore, and an adjustment knob attached to the adjustor piston.
