TANK SYSTEM COMPRISING A CHASSIS, A TANK FOR DIHYDROGEN, AND MEANS FOR ATTACHING THE TANK TO THE CHASSIS
A tank system for an aircraft, including a tank including an inner enclosure including a closed inner skin configured to store dihydrogen and an outer enclosure including an outer skin that surrounds the inner enclosure, a chassis including a front frame at a front end of the tank, and an attachment arrangement which attaches the outer skin of the outer enclosure to the front frame. A system of this kind makes it possible to react forces through the outer skin, thus reducing a complexity of the chassis.

WORK MACHINE
A work machine, more particularly a wheeled loader, having a cab for the operator of the work machine, wherein the work machine has a drive which can be operated with hydrogen and that one or more tanks for receiving hydrogen are provided, wherein components for receiving the tanks are provided, wherein the tank or tanks are arranged below the cab and, when the work machine is viewed from above, next to the cab of the work machine, wherein the components for receiving the tanks do not have a direct mechanical connection to the cab, and that an armor is provided which partially or completely surrounds the tank.
SWIVEL WORKING MACHINE
A swivel working machine includes a swivel base, a prime mover installed in the swivel base, a working device provided at the swivel base, and a support mechanism that supports a fuel cylinder in a rotatable manner around a pivot shaft. The fuel cylinder contains fuel for the prime mover. The support mechanism includes a support rotating body that supports the fuel cylinder and that rotates around the pivot shaft, a rotational-position defining mechanism including a pin that defines a rotational position of the support rotating body around the pivot shaft, and an adjustment mechanism that adjusts a position of the pivot shaft relative to the pin.
