Compressed gas reservoir

Technical field

The technical solution relates to a reservoir of compressed gas, especially for pressures from 10 to 100 MPA, and solves the collection and removal of solid and liquid deposits from the reservoir while reducing the risk of damage to the reservoir by corrosion, reducing the built-up area and simplifying its assembly.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Until now, either horizontal cylindrical containers or batteries of vertically erected cylinders with a connection at their upper end have been used for the storage of gases pressurized to high pressures. A drawback of horizontal containers is that they practically do not allow the discharge of condensate or other liquid or solid deposits, thereby exposing them to corrosion in the region of the thinnest wall on the surface parallel to the longitudinal axis of the pressure vessel. For vertically oriented bottles, condensate discharge is possible, but at the cost of relatively lengthy and laborious bottle handling. This means disconnecting the valve and then tipping the bottles.

The essence of the technical solution

The above mentioned drawbacks are eliminated by the compressed air reservoir according to this technical solution, which is based on the fact that in the bottom of at least one reservoir container whose longitudinal axis is deviated from the vertical by max. 60 °, the opening is closed by plug or a cap. In the lower part of the container there is a discharge channel provided with a closure. The discharge channel can be formed both in the plug and in the container bottom of the container. For proper operation it is necessary that the top surface of the plug is above the bottom inside the container of the container.

Naturally, the stopper may be seated lower, and into the opening of the plug is a tube whose upper end is above the bottom inside the container of the container.

It is also advantageous from a safety point of view that the closure is a thermal fuse.

In order to provide a container with at least two containers, it is preferable that the containers are attached to the column attached to the base part directly or by means of wedge inserts.

An important advantage is then easy capture and discharge of solid and liquid deposits from the container and thus significantly reduce the possibility of corrosion and reduce the demand for built-up area.

Overview of the drawings

The technical solution is explained in more detail in the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 is a partial section of the lower part of the container of the container, while Fig. 1 shows the drain channel in the plug and

In FIG. 2, the bottom of the container is in the jacket. FIG. 3 schematically illustrates a container comprising a plurality of containers connected to a column.

Examples

The compressed gas reservoir is formed by a container 1, the longitudinal axis of which is vertical. In the bottom of the container 1 is formed an opening 6 closed by a plug 4 with a through hole 5, which is connected to the supply line 7. A tube 8 opens from above from the plug 4, the upper end of which is above the bottom inside the container 1. The plug 4 is then provided with a drain channel 2 provided with a closure 3, which separates the inner space of the container 1 from the outer space or, alternatively, from the drain pipe. In another exemplary embodiment, the channel 2 is formed in the bottom shell of the container 1.

Alternatively, the closure 3 of the duct 2 also forms a thermal fuse which opens when the limit temperature is exceeded. According to another alternative, the top surface of the plug 4 is above the bottom inside the container χ. In this case, the use of a tube 8 is not necessary.

In this case, the possible inaccuracy of the vertical alignment of the support column 9 is corrected by relative rotation of the cylindrical wedge inserts 11 about their vertical axis.

The use of the reservoir is particularly suitable for gas filling stations for cars and rail transport and for the storage of compressed gases in industry.
