Method for storing 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane and container for storing same
The present invention relates to a method for storing, in a closed container, a composition comprising 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane in a liquid/gas state composed of a liquid phase and of a gas phase, characterized in that i) a stream comprising 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane is injected into said container, said stream comprising an oxygen concentration of at most 5000 ppm by volume at a temperature of 25° C., and ii) the container is closed after injection of said stream. The present invention also relates to a container for storing 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane.
CRYOGENIC NITROGEN SOURCED GAS-DRIVEN PNEUMATIC DEVICES
A cryogenic nitrogen sourced gas-driven pneumatic device that is configured to provide a pressurized gas to end devices is described herein. In some instances, the a cryogenic nitrogen sourced gas-driven pneumatic device may include a cryogenic storage tank that stores liquid nitrogen under pressure, a pressure build circuit configured to build and hold pressure in the cryogenic storage tank, an economizer circuit configured to draw gas that forms in the cryogenic storage tank for an end device, and a vaporizer is configured to convert the liquid nitrogen into a gas as it is drawn through the vaporizer.
CRYOSPHERE
Methods, apparatus, and device, for a cryogenic storage system that stores and/or transports a liquid or gas at a temperature below ambient temperature. The cryogenic storage system has an enclosure and a cavity. The cryogenic storage system has a dewar that is positioned within the cavity of the enclosure. The dewar has a payload area that is configured to hold a liquid below ambient temperature. The dewar is configured to hold a liquid below ambient temperature and passively stabilize in an upright position. The dewar is formed with an inner wall and an outer wall and has an opening that allows access to the payload area.

MAINTENANCE APPARATUS FOR CRYOCOOLER AND METHOD FOR MAINTAINING CRYOCOOLER
A maintenance apparatus for a cryocooler includes a glovebox, a container, and a lid. The glovebox is configured to be joined to a cooling subject coupled to a cylinder of the cryocooler. The glovebox defines a first glovebox chamber that accommodates a cryocooler part excluding the cylinder. The cryocooler part includes a displacer of the cryocooler dismounted from the cylinder. The container is disposed in the first glovebox chamber and configured to accommodate the cryocooler part. The lid is disposed in the first glovebox chamber. The lid is configured to disconnect a cylinder chamber of the cylinder from the first glovebox chamber when the cooling subject is joined to the glovebox.
Curve-combined square pressure tank
The present invention relates to a curve-combined square pressure tank with which curves are combined so as to maintain internal high pressure, improve space efficiency, and reduce the weight thereof, and to a pressure tank, in which planes and curves are combined, formed by connecting flat plate members and curved members, having a plurality of aligned tension members for connecting the flat plate members facing each other, and having stress buffer parts formed at connection parts of the flat plate members and the curved members so as to enable internal pressure to be maintained.
HANDLE ASSEMBLY FOR A PORTABLE PRESSURIZED GAS CYLINDER
Provided is a handle assembly for a cylinder. The handle assembly includes a handle support configured to couple to a valve of the cylinder. The handle support includes a body having first and second ends circumferentially spaced from one another to define a gap and a longitudinal passage opening to a top and bottom of the body for receiving the valve, and first and second deflectable arms projecting from the body. The handle assembly also includes a handle rotatably coupled to the handle support. The handle including a top portion, first and second side portions, and an attachment member coupled to the first and second deflectable arms of the handle.
