CONCEPT' ET PROCEDE DE FABRICAITON DE RESERVOIR DE FLUIDE,CONCEPT 'AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A FLUID TANK,
D'AIR COMPRIME OU AU TRES GAZ A HAUTE 'PRESSION. HIGH PRESSURE COMPRESSED OR VERY GAS AIR.
L'invention concerne les réservoirs de gaz ou de fluide haute pression notamment pour des véhicules terrestres ou maritimes et plus particulièrement pour ceux fonctionnant avec injection d'air comprimé additionnel, et comportant un réservoir The invention relates to high pressure gas or fluid tanks, in particular for land or sea vehicles and more particularly for those operating with injection of additional compressed air, and comprising a tank.
d'air comprimé haute pression.high pressure compressed air.
Les réservoirs de gaz comprimé à haute pression ont longtemps été réalisés dans des cylindres d'aciers toutefois, récemment, les concepteurs de réservoirs ont recherché à les alléger soit en utilisant des métaux légers tels que l'aluminium, soit en leur incorporant des enroulements de fibre de verre, de carbone ou autres High pressure compressed gas tanks have long been produced in steel cylinders, however, recently, tank designers have sought to lighten them either by using light metals such as aluminum, or by incorporating windings of them. fiberglass, carbon or other
techniques dites à enroulement filamentaire. techniques called filament winding.
Dans ces réservoirs cylindriques les efforts axiaux sont bien In these cylindrical tanks the axial forces are good
évidemment proportionnels à la surface de la section du cylindre fonction du diamètre- obviously proportional to the cross-sectional area of the cylinder as a function of diameter-
ils sont engendrés par la pression du gaz ou du fluide ce qui impose des épaisseurs de parois considérables dés que le diamètre du cylindre devient relativement important dans le but d'obtenir des capacités volumes, par exemple pour un réservoir d'un diamètre de 300 mm contenant un gaz à 300 bars l'effort axial est de 212 tonnes. En they are generated by the pressure of the gas or the fluid which imposes considerable wall thicknesses as soon as the diameter of the cylinder becomes relatively large in order to obtain volume capacities, for example for a tank with a diameter of 300 mm containing a gas at 300 bars the axial force is 212 tonnes. In
outre, les efforts radiaux et axiaux sont encaissés par la même paroi. in addition, the radial and axial forces are collected by the same wall.
Une autre difficulté de ce type de réservoir est d'implanter les raccords permettant le remplissage et la vidange qui imposent des réductions de diamètre importantes a son embout qui du fait de la surface de la section subit des efforts Another difficulty of this type of tank is to install the fittings allowing filling and emptying which impose significant reductions in diameter on its nozzle which, due to the surface of the section undergoes stresses.
particulièrement importants.particularly important.
Quels que soient les matériaux utilisés ces efforts très élevés imposent des réservoirs lourds avec des épaisseurs de parois très importantes par exemple plus Whatever the materials used, these very high forces require heavy tanks with very large wall thicknesses, for example more
de 15 millimètres.15 millimeters.
L'invention propose de résoudre ces défauts, elle est caractérisée en ce que le réservoir est constitué de plusieurs tubes de faibles sections formant des cellules juxtaposées collées les unes aux autres et reliées entre elles radialement par au moins un orifice pour permettre la circulation du gaz sous pression de l'une à l'autre, chaque tube ou cellule de diamètre ou de section relativement faible par exemple 50 mm, encaisse ses propres efforts axiaux par exemple 5,9 tonne pour 300 bars et est fermé par tout moyen à ses extrémités alors qu'au moins un de ces tubes reçoit à au moins l'une de ses extrémités un embout ou orifice de remplissage et de vidange du réservoir. L'ensemble de ces tubes ou cellules est ensuite maintenu par une enveloppe commune constituée d'un revêtement composite de résine et tissus de fibres et/ou d'enroulement filamentaire ou autres. Les efforts radiaux sont répartis sur des surfaces The invention proposes to resolve these defects, it is characterized in that the reservoir consists of several tubes of small sections forming juxtaposed cells glued to each other and connected to each other radially by at least one orifice to allow the circulation of gas. under pressure from one to the other, each tube or cell of relatively small diameter or section, for example 50 mm, collects its own axial forces, for example 5.9 tonnes for 300 bars and is closed by any means at its ends while at least one of these tubes receives at at least one of its ends a nozzle or orifice for filling and emptying the reservoir. All of these tubes or cells are then maintained by a common envelope made up of a composite coating of resin and fiber fabrics and / or filament winding or others. Radial forces are distributed over surfaces
restreintes et l'enveloppe commune participe à encaisser ces efforts. restricted and the common envelope helps to absorb these efforts.

Ces tubes peuvent être des cylindres juxtaposés, mais le raccordement et le collage entre eux en un seul point du cercle sera difficile à réaliser, et l'on préférera des tubes avec des sections de forme géométrique comportant des faces planes permettant de les juxtaposer et de les coller entre eux plus facilement tels que triangle, carré, pentagone, hexagone etc... La juxtaposition de ces tubes ou cellules permet aux efforts radiaux dus à la pression de s'opposer de part et d'autre de la paroi juxtaposée et collée afin These tubes can be juxtaposed cylinders, but the connection and bonding between them at a single point of the circle will be difficult to achieve, and we will prefer tubes with sections of geometric shape having flat faces allowing them to be juxtaposed and stick them together more easily such as triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon etc ... The juxtaposition of these tubes or cells allows the radial forces due to the pressure to oppose on either side of the juxtaposed and glued wall to
que les parois de ces tubes travaillent seulement axialement. that the walls of these tubes work only axially.
Les matériaux des tubes peuvent être en métal tel qu'acier, aluminium ou autres mais préférentiellement et selon l'une des caractéristiques de l'invention, chaque tube est réalisé avec une enveloppe interne ou liner en matière plastique renforcée par des matériaux composite et/ou par des enroulements filamentaires de The materials of the tubes can be made of metal such as steel, aluminum or others but preferably and according to one of the characteristics of the invention, each tube is produced with an internal envelope or liner in plastic material reinforced by composite materials and / or by filament windings of
fibre de verre ou autre carbone.fiberglass or other carbon.
Selon une des conceptions préférentielles de l'invention, la section des tubes est un octogone et ces derniers sont réalisés en matière plastique dont quatre des cotés servent de base à des enroulements filamentaires longitudinaux alors que les quatre autres cotés servent au collage et à la mise en communication, par des orifices percés en correspondances, des tubes entre eux. Chaque tube reçoit à chacune de ses extrémités un bouchon octogonal collé, comportant, ou non, un ou plusieurs joint torique d'étanchéité et retenu axialement et mécaniquement par l'enroulement filamentaire longitudinal. Les tubes collés entre eux forment, vu en coupe transversale, un carré qui peut également servir de réservoir si les extrémités comportent une pièce d'obturation adéquate. D'autres buts, avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront According to one of the preferred designs of the invention, the section of the tubes is an octagon and the latter are made of plastic, four of the sides of which serve as the basis for longitudinal filament windings while the other four sides are used for bonding and placing in communication, through holes drilled in correspondence, tubes between them. Each tube receives at each of its ends a glued octagonal plug, comprising or not, one or more O-ring seal and held axially and mechanically by the longitudinal filament winding. The tubes glued together form, seen in cross section, a square which can also serve as a tank if the ends have an adequate closure piece. Other objects, advantages and characteristics of the invention will become apparent

et collés entre eux avec des orifices concordants 11 qui sont percés sur les surfaces communes collées pour mettre en communication chaque cellule entre elles qui contiennent ainsi du gaz à une pression identique. Les efforts radiaux sur les parois de chaque cellule sont compensés par les efforts opposés de la cellule juxtaposée flèche F alors qu'une enveloppe extérieure de maintient 12 figure 2 vient reprendre les efforts radiaux vers l'extérieur du réservoir et maintenir entre elles les dix cellules collées and bonded together with concordant orifices 11 which are drilled on the bonded common surfaces to put each cell in communication with each other which thus contain gas at an identical pressure. The radial forces on the walls of each cell are compensated for by the opposite forces of the juxtaposed cell arrow F while an outer envelope for retaining 12 FIG. 2 takes up the radial forces towards the outside of the tank and holds the ten cells between them glued
donnant de la cohésion à l'ensemble du réservoir. giving cohesion to the entire tank.
La figure 3 représente schématiquement vu en coupe transversale et perspective, une cellule de section octogonale, pour la réalisation d'un réservoir selon l'invention, comportant un liner d'étanchéité en plastique extrudé 13 et des enroulements filmentaires longitudinaux 14 réalisés en croix sur quatre des cotés, et destiné à encaisser les efforts axiaux de chaque cellules ainsi qu'à retenir aux extrémités des obturateurs étanches 15, des orifices de communication inter cellules 16 sont ménagés sur les quatre autres faces de juxtaposition et de collage avec les autres cellules constituant le réservoir, ces orifices n'étant pas percés sur les faces FIG. 3 schematically shows in cross-section and perspective, a cell of octagonal section, for the production of a reservoir according to the invention, comprising a sealing liner in extruded plastic 13 and longitudinal filament windings 14 produced in cross on four on the sides, and intended to collect the axial forces of each cell as well as to retain at the ends of the sealed shutters 15, inter-cell communication orifices 16 are formed on the other four faces of juxtaposition and bonding with the other cells constituting the reservoir, these orifices not being drilled on the faces
communiquant avec l'extérieur de l'assemblage des cellules du réservoir. communicating with the outside of the tank cell assembly.
Les cellules sont juxtaposées et collées pour constituer un réservoir vu en coupe transversale sur la figure 4 et délimitent entre elles un volume de section carrée 17 qui peut avantageusement contenir également le gaz sous pression permettant d'annuler les efforts radiaux sur les parois concernées de chaque cellule, un obturateur étanche étant dans ce cas implanté à chaque extrémité de ce volume de section carré qui est mis en communication avec les cellules octogonales. Une enveloppe extérieure de maintien 18 en tissus de verre (ou autres matériaux et/ou en enroulement filamentaire) vient assurer la cohésion de l'ensemble du réservoir, et assurer les efforts radiaux exercés par la pression sur les faces extérieures des cellules extérieures. L'enveloppe extérieure peut suivre les formes extérieures des cellules octogonales, ou selon une vanriante de l'invention des profilés de formes triangulaires 19 en mousse de polyuréthanne -ou autres matériaux- sont positionnes et/ ou collés entre les cellules octogonales et permettent ainsi d'une part de mieux encaisser les efforts radiaux dus à la pression des gaz sur les faces concernées, et d'autre part d'obtenir un The cells are juxtaposed and glued to form a reservoir seen in cross section in FIG. 4 and delimit between them a volume of square section 17 which can advantageously also contain the gas under pressure making it possible to cancel the radial forces on the walls concerned of each cell, a sealed shutter being in this case located at each end of this volume of square section which is placed in communication with the octagonal cells. An outer holding envelope 18 in glass fabrics (or other materials and / or in filament winding) ensures the cohesion of the entire reservoir, and ensures the radial forces exerted by the pressure on the outer faces of the outer cells. The outer casing can follow the outer shapes of the octagonal cells, or according to a variant of the invention, triangular shaped profiles 19 made of polyurethane foam - or other materials - are positioned and / or glued between the octagonal cells and thus allow d on the one hand to better absorb the radial forces due to the pressure of the gases on the faces concerned, and on the other hand to obtain a
réservoir avec des flans sensiblement plats plus facilement réalisables et stockables. tank with substantially flat blanks that are more easily produced and storable.
