Abstract

Tanks for liquefied petroleum gas or compressed gas, made of several elements of cylindrical or elliptical shape, of identical dimensions or of different dimensions, allowing a maximum volume while reducing the overall size and allowing the use of a single multiple valve. The invention allows considerable space saving and a lower cost price, by eliminating a part of small capacity in the accessory elements. The mounting on the support is simplified by the use of a single set of straps or of anchors. It allows a gas and electrical connection which is simplified by the elimination of the non-return valves, with a single outlet and inlet for the gas (a single inlet and a single outlet on a single multiple valve) and a simplified gauge-reading device (a single emitter). It makes it possible to use the available space as much as possible in order to house the tank, while having the possibility of using elements of variable lengths.

Description

D E S C t I P T I O N
Réservoirs pour gaz de pétrole liquéfié, ou gaz comprimés, pour véhicu automobiles, utilitaires, poids lourds, engins de manutentions et tous matériels équipés, ou non, d'un moteur à explosion, pouvant utiliser 1 gaz liquéfiés, ou comprimés, comme carburant, ou, d'autres usages, tel que chauffage, frigo, éclairage, par exemple.DESC t IPTION
Reservoirs for liquefied petroleum gas, or compressed gases, for motor vehicles, utilities, heavy goods vehicles, handling equipment and all equipment fitted or not with an internal combustion engine, capable of using 1 liquefied or compressed gas as fuel, or, other uses, such as heating, fridge, lighting, for example.

Compte tenu de la forme des éléments, l'utilisation avec des gaz comprimés est fonction de la pression de service.Given the shape of the elements, use with compressed gases depends on the operating pressure.

Permet, dans un minimum de place, une contenance maximum, que le réser -voir soit fixé à l'intérieur, ou, à l'extérieur du véhicule, ou de la cabine.Allows, in a minimum of space, a maximum capacity, that the tank -see is fixed inside, or, outside the vehicle, or the cabin.

Permet l'utilisation d'une seule polyvanne, tout en conservant la sécurité de remplissage a F 85 ( principe des vases communiquants) pou les gaz de pétrole liquéfié, suivant la législation en vigueur ( la sécurité de remplissage est liée à la polyvanne, le principe du systèm de réservoirs en plusieurs éléments ntest donc pas tributaire de cette réglementation, et conserve toute sa valeur en cas de changement de la réglementation )
Permet un prix de revient de fabrication et de montage inférieur à plusieurs réservoirs d'une contenance équivalent-e. Allows the use of a single polyvane, while retaining the safety of filling at F 85 (principle of communicating vessels) for liquefied petroleum gases, according to the legislation in force (the safety of filling is linked to the polyvane, the principle of the tank system in several elements is therefore not dependent on these regulations, and retains its full value in the event of a change in regulations)
Allows a manufacturing and assembly cost price lower than several tanks of equivalent capacity.

bans le cas d'un montage sous plancher, permet de conserver la garde a sol et l'angle de pente ( principalement pour lés véhicules " tout terrain " , les caravanes, les campings-car) = figure nO 1.in the case of an underfloor mounting, allows to keep the ground clearance and the slope angle (mainly for "all terrain" vehicles, caravans, camper vans) = figure nO 1.

Permet un montage plus facile suivant la place disponible.Allows easier assembly depending on the space available.

Permet une fixation simplifiée par l'emploi de sangles ou de plots de fixation correspondant à un seul réservoir.Allows simplified fixing by the use of straps or fixing studs corresponding to a single tank.

Permet de rejoindre une station à vitesse réduite en utilisant la réserve gazeuse = figures nO 2 - 3 - 4 - 5
Ce principe est utilisable pour des réservoirs de toute longueur, chaq élément pouvant avoir une longueur égale ou différente, la polyvanne étant montée dans l'élément nO 1 , qui est l'élément de base.Enables you to reach a station at reduced speed using the gas reserve = figures nO 2 - 3 - 4 - 5
This principle can be used for tanks of any length, each element may have an equal or different length, the polyvalve being mounted in element nO 1, which is the basic element.

Dans le cas de la suppression totale ou partielle de la phase gazeuse (figure 5 et 6 ) le montage d'un tube de transvasement entre un ou plusieurs éléments permet d'utiliser, partiellement, ou eq totalité, l contenu en phase liquide. In the case of total or partial suppression of the gas phase (FIGS. 5 and 6), the mounting of a transfer tube between one or more elements makes it possible to use, partially, or eq all, the content in the liquid phase.

Les éléments sont en général de forme cylindrique, mais ils peuvent ê- également, en tout ou partie, de forme émiptique. The elements are generally cylindrical in shape, but they may also be, in whole or in part, emiptical.

Permet une utilisation en longitudinal, ou en transversal.Allows use in longitudinal, or transverse.

Suivant les nécessités techniques, des renforts à la demande peuvent être montés à la jonction des différents éléments.Depending on technical requirements, reinforcements on request can be fitted at the junction of the various elements.

La fabrication pourra être faite avec toute matière compatible avec 1 contenu et les normes de sécurité, tel que l'acier, alliages légers, composites, céramiques, etc..... Manufacturing can be done with any material compatible with 1 content and safety standards, such as steel, light alloys, composites, ceramics, etc.

Les éléments annexes peuvent être, soit avec réserve pour alimentatio gazeuse en secours, soit équipés d'un tube de transvasement pour utilisation partielle ou totale de la contenance en phase liquide.The ancillary elements can be either with reserve for back-up gas supply, or equipped with a transfer tube for partial or total use of the liquid phase capacity.

Les éléments annexes peuvent être décalés vers le bas, suivant leur contenance, leur diamètre et leur forme, mais dans le cas du GPL, il devra être tenu compte du taux de remplissage maximum (actuellement 8
Ce principe est utilisable pour tous ré-servoirs, sur tous véhicules o engins terrestres, maritimes ou aériens.The ancillary elements can be shifted down, depending on their capacity, their diameter and their shape, but in the case of LPG, the maximum filling rate must be taken into account (currently 8
This principle can be used for all tanks, on all vehicles or land, sea or air vehicles.
