A tank for the storage of liquid or gaseous substances with a fiber-reinforced plastic sheathing, which limits at least one interior space for holding the materials to be stored. At least one circumferential section of the fiber-reinforced plastic sheathing comprises an evacuable sandwich structure, which completely encloses the circumferential section. As a result, the tank has a low weight with a high thermal insulation capacity. Furthermore, a reliable explosion protection of the tank is provided. Furthermore, a method for manufacturing a tank for the storage of liquid or gaseous substances is provided.

Device (1) for closed systems for equalization of pressure surges, having an outlet nozzle (2), on which an impact plate (3) is provided and a hinged cover (4) is mounted pivotably, wherein the hinged cover (4) lies in a rest position (5) on the outlet nozzle (2) and in an open position (6) bears on the impact plate (3), wherein at least one holding-closed device (7) is provided, which presses the hinged cover (4) in the rest position (5) against the outlet nozzle (2) and in the case of a pressure surge releases the hinged cover (4), wherein the device has a control unit (8) that controls the holding-closed device (7).

The present technology relates to an air reservoir for an enclosure where, upon submersion in water, the pressure differential between the water and the enclosure displaces air from the air reservoir into the enclosure to reduce the pressure differential.

A latch for securing a component to a track in a base of air cargo equipment, such as a pallet or the floor of a unit load device. The latch includes a rigid support configured to be attached at the bottom edge of the component. The latch also includes a handle. The handle rotates relative to the support between an open position and a closed position. The handle uses a rotationally tapered locking cam to secure the component to the track. In one embodiment, the component is a door, such as a fabric curtain.

Embodiments described herein include layered mesh containers and methods for using the containers to safely transport and dispose of airbag inflators having ammonium-nitrate-based propellant. For example, a container with at least two single-layer sidewalls is provided that can hold multiple airbag inflators and withstand up to 4 moles of matter being deployed from an inflator having ammonium-nitrate-based propellant. The container can contain the inflator and any shrapnel associated with the explosion while also venting gases expelled as a result of the explosion. Various container designs are provided, along with methods for using these containers.

The present invention comprises: a storage tank in which cooling water is stored; a partition unit which is disposed inside the storage tank, which partitions the inside of the storage tank into a first storage tank and a second storage tank so that the cooling water can be separated and which has an inlet for causing the cooling water of the second storage tank to naturally introduce into the first storage tank according to the water level difference between the first and second storage tanks; a heat exchanger extending from the first storage tank to the inside of the reactor building to cool the reactor building based on the cooling water of the first storage tank; and a steam discharging unit connected to the heat exchanger and discharging the steam generated in the heat exchanger to the outside of the heat exchanger.

The disclosure relates to a flameless venting system, along with associated devices and methods. In one aspect, the disclosure is directed to a flameless venting system having a curved flange, which may allow the system to mount directly to the curved surface of a vessel. In another aspect, a disclosed flameless venting system has a curved filter exit. In still another aspect, a disclosed flameless venting system may be configured such that a flame-arresting quenching body component may be joined to a vessel prior to installation of an explosion panel component. In addition, a quenching body component may be configured to provide access to its interior, to facilitate inspection, replacement, or maintenance of an explosion panel contained therein.
