A self-contained heated portable vacuum slurry box which is constructed to hold both a positive pressure and a vacuum pressure. The slurry box generally includes a vacuum tank, a structure attached to the tank, a vertical tailgate, and a hook for pulling the slurry box onto a vehicle. The slurry box meets space restriction requirements while functioning within the environmental conditions of winter and summer seasons.

A low profile holding tank capable of being evacuated to a pressure differential of at least about 10″ of mercury, the low profile holding tank including at least one support structure, an upper outer layer and a lower outer layer each constructed from mild steel that is no thicker than about ¼ inches and a peripheral wall, the upper outer layer, the lower outer layer and the peripheral wall cooperate to define a space, the at least one support structure is connected to the upper outer layer at an upper connection point and the at least one support structure is connected to the lower outer layer at a lower connection point, wherein at least one of the upper connection point and the lower connection point is made from outside of the space.

A hydrogen tank-loaded vehicle includes: a tank storage portion disposed at a main body unit that is movable by driving of driving wheels, the tank storage portion structuring a portion of a vehicle outer profile, and a plurality of hydrogen tank mounting portions being provided at the tank storage portion in a height direction of the main body unit, each hydrogen tank mounting portion being configured to removably store a hydrogen tank; and a fuel cell stack that is supplied with hydrogen from the hydrogen tanks and generates electric power.

Systems and methods for securing a tank to a chassis. In an embodiment, a vehicle includes a chassis and a tank having a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end is coupled with the chassis for pivotal movement with respect thereto. The vehicle also includes a structural pad coupled to the tank and at least one rib extending from the structural pad. The at least one rib has at least one aperture defined therethrough. At least one fluid cylinder is coupled with the chassis. The at least one fluid cylinder is coupled with a pin aligned with the aperture. Actuation of the at least one fluid cylinder causes the pin to move between a first position wherein the pin is not received within the aperture and a second position wherein the pin is received within the aperture.

This disclosure is directed toward a heated tailgate for use in cold climates. The heated tailgate may be used with a self-contained heated portable vacuum slurry box. The slurry box generally includes a vacuum tank, a structure attached to the tank, a vertical tailgate, and a hook for pulling the slurry box onto a vehicle. The heated tailgate provides that the slurry cuttings within the slurry box which are adjacent to the tailgate do not freeze and provides for a way in which the tailgate may seal to the vacuum box.

A vehicular vessel mounting system is provided. In one aspect, a vehicular vessel mounting system includes a mount arranged to support a pressure vessel in a substantially vertical orientation. The mount includes a vertically oriented spine and a backing connected to the spine. The backing is shaped to match an outer wall of the pressure vessel. One or more retention mechanisms are arranged to retain the pressure vessel to the backing.

A boom structure for a mobile agricultural implement. The boom structure includes a first transversely extending beam member having a first protrusion. The boom structure includes a second transversely extending beam member having a second protrusion. The second transversely extending beam member is spatially offset from the first transversely extending beam member. A plurality of first coupling members are connected to the first protrusion and a plurality of second coupling members connected to the second protrusion. A plurality of connecting members are connected to the first and second coupling members to connect the first and second transversely extending beam members.

Fuel delivery vessels and vehicles are described. Some embodiments include nozzles for access by an operator. Some embodiments include optimized size and material characteristics. Some embodiments include various dispensing systems.

An anhydrous ammonia trailer including first and second longitudinally extending frame members having first and second cross-members selectively removably secured to the frame member with the cross-members being longitudinally adjustably secured to the frame member. The cross-members enable the trailer to have first and second ammonia tanks mounted on the trailer. The trailer also enables a single ammonia tank to be supported on the adjustable cross-members.
