Vehicle Mounted Monitoring System for Removable Propane Tanks
A vehicle mounted monitoring system for removable propane tanks includes a propane tank holding system, at least one tank measuring sensor, a hard-wired vehicular power connection, a main control module, and a vehicular display module. The propane tank holding system includes at least one resting bracket so that a propane tank can be placed and secured. The tank measuring sensor is operatively coupled to the resting bracket to measure the remaining amount of liquid in the propane tank. The hard-wired vehicular power connection is electrically connected to the tank measuring sensor for continuous operation. The tank measuring sensor is electronically connected to the vehicular display module through the main control module so that the user can be informed.
Sealed and thermally insulating tank provided with a loading/unloading tower
A sealed and thermally insulating storage tank for a fluid that is anchored in a load-bearing structure built into a ship, the ship having a longitudinal direction, the tank having a loading/unloading tower suspended from a ceiling wall of the load-bearing structure, the loading/unloading tower including first, second and third vertical pylons defining a prism of triangular section, the loading/unloading tower carrying at least a first pump, the tank having a support foot that is fastened to the load-bearing structure, the tank having at least one sump, the first pump being arranged outside the triangular prism and being aligned with the support foot in a first transverse plane that is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the ship.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MULTIFUEL FUELING PLATFORM
An environmentally friendly multifuel fueling platform includes a tower structure and a canopy structure supported on legs a predetermined distance above ground to facilitate the passage of land vehicles beneath. The canopy structure is releasably affixed to the tower structure. An energy source is housed within the canopy structure and the tower provides access to the canopy from the ground, as well as providing operational supply of one of a liquid, gaseous and electrical energies to the energy source.
High-pressure tank, high-pressure tank mounting apparatus and method for manufacturing high-pressure tank
A high-pressure tank comprises a liner, a strengthening layer including a first helical layer and a first hoop layer each including a carbon fiber, and a protective layer including a second helical layer and a second hoop layer each including a glass fiber, in this order. The high-pressure tank is provided with a stress-generating portion, a reinforcement layer includes a first area α overlapping the stress-generating portion in a stacking direction and a second area β that is an area except for the first area, and a one-round portion including a final crossing portion at an end of winding of the glass fiber constituting the second hoop layer overlaps the second area in the stacking direction.
VACUUM INSULATED CRYOGENIC STORAGE VESSEL
A cryogenic vessel includes an outer vessel at least partially formed from a reinforced concrete. The cryogenic vessel further includes an inner vessel disposed in the outer vessel. The cryogenic vessel further includes an airtight liner disposed between the inner vessel and the outer vessel, wherein the liner is anchored to the outer vessel. The cryogenic vessel further includes a vacuum space disposed between the inner vessel and the liner, wherein an insulation material is disposed in the vacuum space.
INFLATOR MOUNTED ON PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
The present invention relates to an inflator mounted on protective equipment, comprising: a main body (100) having a cylindrical structure that is open at the top and bottom thereof, wherein the main body (100) has a key-ball insertion hole (110) and a gas supply hole (120) that are formed on portions of a lateral side thereof, and a bomb (600) for storing compressed air is coupled to the lower side of the main body (100); an eccentric lever (200) that is rotatably coupled to the upper opening of the main body (100) through a rotation shaft (230) and includes a lever (210) that adjusts a downward pressure by rotating an eccentric drum part (220) having the shape of a circular plate; a perforation part (300) that provides a restoring force downward according to the pressure state of the eccentric lever (200) and perforates the bomb (600) to allow the gas in the bomb (600) to be supplied to a user's protective equipment through the gas supply hole (120); and a key-ball (400) that confines the movement of the perforation part (300) while being inserted into the key-ball insertion hole (110) and separates from the key-ball insertion hole (110) according to the state of the outside to operate the perforation part (300).
TANK HOLDER
Provided is a tank holder capable of suppressing a necessary dedicated space. A tank holder to hold a tank includes: a belt-shaped band that is arranged along an outer circumference of the tank, the band being provided with a plurality of pressing elements that protrude to press a surface of the tank and elastically deform.
