Liquid container and method for manufacturing a liquid container
A liquid container for a motor vehicle, having a first half-shell and a second half-shell, the half-shells delimiting a storage volume for accommodating liquid, the first half-shell having a first support layer and a first barrier layer, the second half-shell having a second support layer and a second barrier layer, the first barrier being situated on a side of the first support layer facing the storage volume, and the second barrier layer being situated on a side of the second support layer facing the storage volume.
VEHICLE FUEL TANK FOR IMPROVED CRASHWORTHINESS
A compartment for storing fuel in a vehicle having a protective outer structure and an inner structure. The protective outer structure is maintained in position relative to the vehicle during normal operation of the vehicle. The inner structure, which holds fuel, is positioned in the outer structure. The inner structure is maintained in position relative to the outer structure and relative to the vehicle during normal operation of the vehicle. During an impact to the vehicle, the inner structure is configured to move independent of the outer structure.
SANDWICH MOTOR VEHICLE TANK COMPRISING A BARRIER FILM AND INJECTION-MOLDED INNER TANK WALLS AND OUTER TANK WALLS
A motor vehicle tank, having a first tank shell and a second tank shell, the first tank shell and the second tank shell defining between each other at least one section of a tank volume of the motor vehicle tank, the first tank shell and the second tank shell respectively having an edge area having a joining flange, the first tank shell and the second tank shell being integrally joined to each other at their joining flanges across a common joining surface, the first tank shell and the second tank shell respectively being a multicomponent tank shell, which includes a barrier film and at least on its edge area an inner wall section that is injection molded onto the inner side of the barrier film pointing toward the tank volume as well as an outer wall section injection molded onto the outer side of the barrier film pointing away from the tank volume, wherein the barrier film of each tank shell is formed in such a way that with the approach to the common joining surface in the area of the joining flange it runs away from the tank volume and toward the outer tank side, so that an integral joint of the tank shells is formed from a first joining area situated closer to the tank volume, in which the injection molded inner tank wall sections of the two tank shells are joined to each other, and a second joining area situated further removed from the tank volume, in which the barrier films of the two tank shells are joined to each other.
Plastic container with mounting part
A method for producing a plastic container, and a plastic container. The method includes heating a container wall of the plastic container at least in a fastening region thereof, and then producing a form-fit connection between the container wall and at least one insert having a fastening surface with a plurality of retaining geometries which protrude from the fastening surface. The form-fit connection is produced by pressing the fastening surface of the insert part against the heated fastening region of the container wall such that the retaining geometries penetrate into the container wall without penetrating through the container wall, free ends of the retaining geometries come to lie inside the container wall, and the plastic of the container wall is arranged between the retaining geometries.
PRESSURE VESSEL AND VEHICLE
Provided are a pressure vessel and a vehicle. The pressure vessel includes a casing, a cylinder valve, a valve seat and an inner liner, the casing has a storage space, the casing has a communication channel communicating the storage space with an outside, the cylinder valve is disposed at the communication channel and configured to adjust an opening degree of the communication channel, the valve seat is at least partially supported between the cylinder valve, the inner liner is disposed on an inner wall surface of the casing, the cylinder valve extends out of the inner liner, the inner liner includes a fitting portion adapted to surround and be attached on an outer peripheral surface of the cylinder valve, and a limiting portion is provided on an inner wall surface of the valve seat and adapted to be attached on and stop the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder valve.
BARRIER FILM-CONTAINING TANK SHELL WITH PERMEATION-SECURE CONNECTOR FORMATION FOR CONNECTING A SEPARATE CONDUIT COMPONENT
A tank shell for a motor vehicle tank, exhibiting a tank shell inner surface facing towards the tank volume surrounded by it and a tank shell outer surface facing away from the tank volume surrounded by it, where a tank shell wall exhibits at least section-wise a multilayer layer structure, where the layer structure having at least one interior wall section produced by injection molding and located nearer to the tank shell inner surface, at least one exterior wall section produced by injection molding and located nearer to the tank shell outer surface, and a barrier film located between the interior wall section and the exterior wall section, where the tank shell wall exhibits at least one aperture penetrating through the tank shell wall along an aperture path, where a section of the barrier film is exposed in the region of the aperture; the section of the barrier film exposed in the region of the aperture is configured integrally with the barrier film in the tank shell wall and for contacting by a sealing arrangement of a conduit component realized separately from the tank shell wall.
Tank manufacturing method and tank
A tank including a liner; a reinforcing layer formed of fiber reinforced resin that is arranged on the liner; a label arranged on the reinforcing layer; and a surface layer formed of glass fiber reinforced resin that is arranged to cover the label. The reinforcing layer includes an inner layer, and an outer layer having a cover rate smaller than the inner layer and smaller than 100%, the cover rate being a percentage of a volume occupied by the fiber reinforced resin in space of the reinforcing layer, and the outer layer being arranged on the inner layer, and at least a part of the label is embedded in the reinforcing layer.
Fuel tank composition
The present invention proposes a fuel tank comprising at least two shells weldable together, each of said at least two shells is made of a polymer composition comprising at least 45% by weight of at least one aromatic polyamide and at least 10% by weight of at least one aliphatic polyamide relative to the total weight of the polymer composition.
Resin-made fuel tank
A resin-made fuel tank includes: a resin-made fuel tank body provided by bonding an upper half body and a lower half body to each other; and a barrier sheet layer provided on an inner surface of the fuel tank body and provided for reducing permeation of fuel from the fuel tank body, wherein an edge of the barrier sheet layer is disposed in a vicinity of an upper bonding surface and a lower bonding surface where the upper half body and the lower half body are bonded to each other in a mating manner, the edge has a bent portion which bends toward an outside of the fuel tank body, and the bent portion is embedded in the fuel tank body at a position spaced apart from the upper bonding surface and the lower bonding surface.
Fuel tank
A fuel tank includes: a tank main body made of a resin material; and a cover member which is formed using threads made of a fiber-reinforced composite material containing a thermoplastic resin fusible to a surface of the tank main body. The cover member has a twill weave structure at least in its portion fused to the upper surface of the tank main body. The threads each have a core-sheath structure in which a fiber made of a polypropylene resin is coated with a polyethylene resin.
