A flexible tank is used to transport bulk liquids or semi-liquid materials inside of a multi-modal shipping container. It has water proof inner layers and an outer layer, which are formed and welded together to have seams at both ends of the flexible tank. A discharge valve is provided at one end of the flexible tank and an additional piece of material, referred to as a cape, is attached at the other end of the flexible tank. The flexible tank is situated in the container so that the end with the discharge valve is at the container opening and the end with the attached cape is at the rear of the container. The cape can be used by equipment positionable at the opening of the container to completely discharge the bulk liquids or semi-liquid materials from the flexible tank by pulling and winding up the cape and the layers of the flexible tank from the rear of the container.

A fire fighting vehicle includes a chassis, a front axle, a rear axle, an engine, a battery system, an electromagnetic device, an accessory drive, and a controller. The accessory drive is positioned to receive a mechanical input from the engine and the electromagnetic device. The controller is configured to selectively engage a plurality of operational modes including a standby mode and a hybrid mode. According to the standby mode, the controller is configured to operate the electromagnetic device using stored energy stored in the battery system to drive the accessory drive with the engine off. According to the hybrid mode, the controller is configured to operate both the engine and the electromagnetic device.

A tank trailer configured to lower an overall center of gravity. The trailer includes a tank, a wheel assembly, an upper body height and a trailer length. The tank includes a cavity contained within a lower body, an upper body, a transitioning body, a front end and a rear end when the cavity within the trailer is filled with a liquid fluid, the liquid fluid is evenly distributed along the trailer length of the trailer since a diameter of the lower body, the upper body and the transitioning body are equal. Other trailers are presented.

A tank trailer for transporting cargo material includes a tank, and the tank includes a wall portion that defines a longitudinal axis of the tank and an internal chamber adapted to carry the cargo material. The wall portion includes a first sidewall, and the first sidewall includes a first cross-sectional radius of curvature that tapers proceeding in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis. The wall portion further includes a second sidewall and a third wall. The third wall is coupled to the first sidewall and the second sidewall, and the third wall includes a second cross-sectional radius of curvature that is substantially uniform proceeding in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis.

A system for monitoring a tank truck operation platform and for guiding and positioning vehicles and a method of using the same, the system includes operation platforms. Each of the operation platforms is provided with a lifting support. The operation platform is installed with an upper-position sensor, a lower-position sensor, and a stress sensor, which communicate with a central control device mounted on the operation platform. The central control device communicates with a distance meter and an in-place sensor for detecting the vehicle. The central control device may send signals to a display device, and information of platform status and vehicle position guidance are displayed on the display device to offer the driver with guidance information including whether the platform is safe and available, the moving direction of the vehicle, and position relative to the platform. Meanwhile, the central control device can receive identification information sent by the vehicle.
