A method for constructing a double-shell-structured cylindrical tank having an inner tank and an outer tank includes: a step of, inside the outer tank, assembling a first structure of the inner tank excluding a lowermost level of the inner tank by alternately and repeatedly performing raising of an inner tank lateral plate using a jack-up unit and attaching of a next inner tank lateral plate below the raised inner tank lateral plate; a step of assembling a second structure serving as the lowermost level of the inner tank on an annular portion provided on a base portion of the outer tank and configured to support the inner tank; and a step of assembling the inner tank by joining the first structure and the second structure.

The present invention relates to a device for the storage and delivery of liquid and/or gaseous media under pressure, having a media container (1) of a plastics material, preferably of polyamide, receiving the medium, at least one valve connection element (2), connected to the media container (1), and at least one valve element (3, 3a, 3b), connectable to the valve connection element (2), wherein the media container (1) has a collar (4), which is molded on in one piece and protrudes from the media container (1) and has a collar outer wall (5) and a collar inner wall (6). A restoring element (11, 11a, 11b) is arranged in such a way that, during the fitting of the valve element (3, 3a), the collar (4) and the restoring element (11, 11a, 11b) are jointly pressed between a partial region (9a) of the wall (9) and the pressing portion (10), wherein the restoring element (11, 11a, 11b) is formed from a crosslinked plastics material, preferably from crosslinked polyethylene, and wherein the pressing portion (10), the collar (4) and the restoring element (11, 11a, 11b) are made to match one another and formed in such a way that the joint pressing of the collar (4) and the restoring element (11, 11a, 11b) has the effect that an elastic deformation (X) of the restoring element (11, 11a, 11b) that is greater than the maximum creep deformation (Y) of the collar (4) over the service life of the device can be set, and so the creep deformation (Y) of the collar (4) can be compensated by way of the restoring element (11, 11a, 11b). The invention also relates to a fuel-energy conversion device, a motor vehicle and a method for fitting a device for the storage and delivery of liquid and/or gaseous media under pressure.

A locking mechanism for a tank body and a tank cover of a pressure tank. The locking mechanism includes: a tank body, a tank chamber, a tank cover, a hydraulic cylinder, a locking ring, a spring cylinder, a fixing supporting mechanism, a fixing plate, a barb, a notch, and a pulling cylinder.

The present invention relates to a sealing apparatus for a high-pressure tank and a high-pressure tank comprising same, wherein the sealing apparatus comprises: a liner configured to accommodate a high-pressure fluid; a connection boss which is a metallic connector provided at an inlet of the liner and includes a first connection boss part coupled to an inner surface of the inlet and a second connection boss part coupled to an outer surface of the inlet and having a tapered shape with a relatively narrow upper side and a relatively wide lower side; and a coupling member configured to come into surface contact with an outer surface of the second connection boss part and having a tilted surface corresponding to a shape of the second connection boss part so that an inner diameter of a lower side is larger than that of an upper side.

A composite pressure vessel liner suitable for use in a composite pressure vessel for storing high-pressure hydrogen is provided. The composite pressure vessel liner is made of a steel material including: a predetermined chemical composition; and a metallic microstructure in which an area fraction of martensite at a position of ¼ of a wall thickness on an inner side is 30% or more, a total area fraction of martensite and bainite at the position of ¼ of the wall thickness on the inner side is 95% or more, and a total area fraction of martensite and bainite in a wall thickness center part is 95% or more, wherein the composite pressure vessel liner has a wall thickness of 20 mm or more in a longitudinal center part, and a tensile strength of 850 MPa or more in the wall thickness center part.

An integral side slope structure of a soil-covered tank, includes a tank body, connecting pieces, and reinforcing frameworks. The exterior of the tank body is completely covered with soil, and a side slope is formed after the tank body is covered with the soil; each connecting piece is composed of ribs which are in cross connection to each other; the connecting pieces are connected to the outer wall of the tank body and are laid inside the side slope in the horizontal direction; a single-layer connecting net is formed after a single layer of the connecting pieces is connected to the tank body; a plurality of layers of the connecting pieces are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction; the tank body and the side slope are connected by the multi-layer connecting net to form an integral structure; the reinforcing frameworks are arranged along the side slope.
