Abstract

17,511. Thompson, A. D. Dec. 14. [Cognate Application, 9883/16.] Tanks.-Relates to liquid-fuel tanks, more particularly for aircraft or motor vehicles, and consists in the provision of means whereby loss of liquid may be avoided in the event of damage to the tank. The tank A, Figs. 2 and 3, is of cylindrical form with a concentric casing B, made in two parts connected by bolts B'. A packing-material C is provided between the tanks and casing, and the structure is mounted on a fixed hollow shaft D. A gear-wheel E is mounted at each end of the casing B, and is attached to it by means of a flange E<1> and bolts E<3>, packing-material C<Î> being interposed between the gear-wheels and the tank ends. In the event of the tank being perforated by a bullet, the outer casing may be partly rotated by means of gear-wheels mounted on a shaft and engaging with the gear-wheels E, so that the holes do not register. In order to reduce the friction between the packing and the inner shell, a sheet of wire gauze or the like is inserted between the two surfaces. The packing may consist of a layer of blanket or felt next to the outer casing, and an inner layer of lubricated leather. The gear-wheels may be provided with radial spokes to secure lightness, in which case a thin plate E<4> bears against the packing- material. The tank may be strengthened by radial stays or by perforated disks G. Filling- openings H<1> are provided, which are brought into register with similar openings in the tank by a partial rotation of the casing. The lower opening K<1> may be used for emptying the tank, and all openings may be closed by plugs. Fuel is fed to the carburetter by tubes L provided with strainers L', one of the tubes being conneeted direct to the carburetter by the pipe M'. Air may be supplied to the tank under pressure by means of the passage D<1> and tube N. A suitable gauge is connected to the passage D<2> and tube P. The tank may be of other shape than cylindrical, for example on motor bicycles, and the casing may be movable longitudinally. According to Provisional Specification 17,511/15, the casing may be rotated by chain-andsprocket gear.
