  • the elastic ring 9 is a Seeger ring, also known as a "circlip.”
  • the elastic ring 9 is removable from the ring recess 8 by bringing the two angular ends 10, 11 together angularly, thus reducing the outer diameter of said ring 9 and allowing it to exit the ring recess 8.
  • the elastic ring 9 comprises specific engagement openings, and said operations for removing the elastic ring 9 are conveniently carried out with a dedicated tool or implement, such as "Seeger pliers.”

  • the safety seat 12 is open radially toward the axis X-X, i.e., it is accessible in a substantially radial direction from a region proximal to the axis X-X.
  • the tank 4 comprises a safety device 13 fixed in the safety seat 12 so as to prevent the elastic ring 9 from being removed from the ring recess 8 by means of elastic deformation.
  • the safety device 9 is appropriately placed between the angular ends 10, 11 in such a way as to prevent its movement, i.e., to make the removal operations of the elastic ring 9 inoperable.
  • the safety device 9 is an elastically non-deformable component.
  • the safety device 13 is at least partially housed in the ring recess 8.
