A liner includes a covering portion that covers an inner surface over the entire circumference of the inner surface of a flange portion of a mouthpiece. A covering opposing portion, which is the inner surface of the flange portion and covered with the covering portion, includes a holding groove and a seal groove provided on the radially outer side of the flange portion than on the holding groove. At an axial cross-section of a pressure container, the holding groove is provided to extend, from a groove opening toward a groove bottom, in a direction inclined toward a radially inner side of the flange portion with respect to an axial direction of the boss portion, and the seal groove is provided to extend, from the groove opening toward the groove bottom, in a direction different from a direction in which the holding groove extends. The covering portion includes a holding rib fitted into the holding groove so as to be movable forward and backward within the holding groove, and a seal rib fitted into the seal groove.

A pressure vessel includes a polymeric liner defining a fluid containment cavity and having an opening defining a port aperture extending between an inner surface and an outer surface of the polymeric liner and a rigid ring element is embedded within the polymeric liner and surrounding the port aperture. A metallic port element is disposed on the outer surface of the polymeric liner and fixed to the rigid ring element. A fiber composite material is disposed about the outer surface of the polymeric liner.

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.

A pressure vessel includes a liner and a reinforcing layer. The liner includes a body portion having a cylindrical shape. The liner is configured such that a gas is filled in the liner. The reinforcing layer is made of a material having a linear expansion coefficient lower than a linear expansion coefficient of a material of the liner. The reinforcing layer is formed in contact with an outer surface of the body portion. The reinforcing layer is configured to cover the liner from outside the liner. A thickness of the body portion is set to such a value that the outer surface of the body portion is not separated from the reinforcing layer when the gas that has been filled in the liner is discharged out of the liner.
