A gas storage and dispensing container includes a storage vessel, a first gas pressure regulator, and a second gas pressure regulator. The storage vessel is configured to contain a pressurized gas. The gas storage and dispensing container has a discharge flow path for discharging the pressurized gas. The first gas pressure regulator is disposed within the storage vessel, and the second gas pressure regulator is external to the storage vessel. The discharge flow path extends through the first gas pressure regulator and the second gas pressure regulator. A method of discharging gas from a gas storage and dispensing container includes a first gas pressure regulator reducing a pressure of the pressurized gas to a first pressure and a second gas pressure regulator reducing the pressure of the pressurized gas to a second pressure.

Provided is a tank including a polymeric upper dome having a neck with a through passage, a polymeric lower dome having a neck with a through passage, a polymeric shell having a first end connected to the upper dome and a second end connected to the lower dome, and a connection attached to each of the upper and lower domes in the through passages of the necks, wherein the upper dome, lower dome, and shell form a cavity.

This system and method for automating oxygen monitoring and dosing in real time for a patient on oxygen therapy is disclosed. The system includes a flow regulator coupled to an oxygen source for operably controlling a flow rate of oxygen from the oxygen source to the patient; a wearable device configured to be worn by the patient for measuring physiological parameters of the patient to monitor a physiological status of the patient; and a controller in wireless communication with the wearable device and the flow regulator for receiving the measured physiological parameters from the wearable device, and controlling operations of the flow regulator to regulate the flow rate of oxygen from the oxygen source for providing a desired amount of oxygen to the patient based on the physiological status of the patient.

A transport container for helium, with an inner container for receiving the helium, a coolant container for receiving a cryogenic liquid (N.sub.2), an outer container, in which the inner container and the coolant container are contained, a thermal shield, in which the inner container is contained and which can be actively cooled with the aid of a liquid phase of the cryogenic liquid (LN.sub.2), the thermal shield having at least one first cooling line, in which the liquid phase of the cryogenic liquid can be received for actively cooling the thermal shield, and an insulating element, which is arranged between the outer container and the thermal shield and which can be actively cooled with the aid of a gaseous phase of the cryogenic liquid (GN.sub.2), the insulating element having at least one second cooling line, in which the gaseous phase of the cryogenic liquid can be received.

A storage vessel for an extremely low temperature material for reducing a vaporization rate by forming a plating layer at an outer surface of a discharge pipe thereof is provided. The storage vessel for an extremely low temperature material includes an inner container configured to store an extremely low temperature material of a liquefied state through a supply pipe in an inner receiving space; an outer container installed at a separated space at the outside of the inner container and having a vacuum port configured to enable the separated space to be a vacuum state; and a heat insulating member installed in a vacuum region between the inner container and the outer container to block a heat from being transferred to the inner container, wherein a discharge pipe connected to an outlet of the inner container and configured to vaporize and discharge an extremely low temperature material is disposed between the inner container and the outer container, and at an outer surface of the discharge pipe, a thermally conductive layer coated with a highly conductive material having high thermal conductivity is formed. By a such a configuration, a heat applied to an outer container can be effectively blocked from being transferred to an inner container for storing an extremely low temperature material, and by reducing a vaporization rate of the extremely low temperature material by increasing a heat transfer area of a discharge pipe, a loss rate according to vaporization of the extremely low temperature material can be reduced and a separate cheap auxiliary extremely low temperature material in addition to the extremely low temperature material can be subsidiarily used for fuel or industrial use.
