Description

本発明は、液体水素、CNG(圧縮天然ガス)等の各種圧縮ガス、LNG(液化天然ガス),LPG(液化石油ガス)等の各種液化ガス,その他の各種加圧物質を充填するための圧力容器、およびその製造方法に関する。   The present invention is a pressure for filling liquid hydrogen, various compressed gases such as CNG (compressed natural gas), various liquefied gases such as LNG (liquefied natural gas) and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), and other various pressurized substances. The present invention relates to a container and a manufacturing method thereof.

CNG等の各種加圧物質を充填するための圧力容器としては、一般に、中空状をなす容器本体に金属製の口金部を取り付け、さらに、口金部にバルブを取り付けたものが用いられている。一般には、容器本体の内周面は樹脂製のライナー部で構成され、ライナー部の外周部は高強度樹脂(FRPなど)製の補強部で構成される。口金部とライナー部との境界には、口金部とライナー部との間をシールするためのOリングを介在させるのが一般的である(例えば、特許文献1、2参照)。   As a pressure vessel for filling various pressurized substances such as CNG, generally, a metal vessel part attached to a hollow container body and a valve attached to the die part are used. In general, the inner peripheral surface of the container body is made of a resin liner, and the outer periphery of the liner is made of a reinforcing portion made of high-strength resin (such as FRP). In general, an O-ring for sealing between the base part and the liner part is interposed at the boundary between the base part and the liner part (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

特許文献1、2に開示されているようにOリングによってライナー部と口金部との間をシールする場合、ライナー部を口金部およびOリングとは別体で成形し、口金部(またはライナー部)にOリングを装着した上で、口金部をライナー部に挿入する必要がある。   When sealing between the liner part and the base part by the O-ring as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the liner part is formed separately from the base part and the O-ring, and the base part (or liner part) is formed. It is necessary to insert the base part into the liner part after mounting the O-ring on

しかし、圧力容器をこのように製造する場合には、口金部を挿入する際に口金部がOリングを押して、Oリングが捻れたり座屈したりする不具合(Oリングの装着不具合と呼ぶ)が生じる可能性がある。Oリングの装着不具合が生じると、加圧物質のシール性に優れる圧力容器を得ることができず、圧力容器の製造ロスが生じる。   However, when the pressure vessel is manufactured in this way, when the base part is inserted, the base part pushes the O-ring and the O-ring is twisted or buckled (referred to as an O-ring mounting fault). there is a possibility. When an O-ring attachment failure occurs, a pressure vessel excellent in the sealability of the pressurized substance cannot be obtained, resulting in a production loss of the pressure vessel.

上記課題を解決する本発明の圧力容器の製造方法は、上述した本発明の圧力容器を製造する方法であって、前記口金部および前記シール補強部材を載置した成形型で前記ライナー部を成形するインサート成形工程を備え、該インサート成形工程において、前記口金および前記シール補強部材を該成形型の型面に載置する際に、前記口金延出部の外周面と前記シール補強部材の内周面との少なくとも一部を離間させ、前記シール補強部材の外周面に対面する該成形型の型面と、前記シール補強部材の外周面と、を離間させつつ前記口金延出部の径方向外側に前記シール補強部材を配置し、前記ライナー部を成形するための成形材料を、前記口金部および前記シール補強部材を載置した該成形型内に射出するとともに、射出圧によって該シール補強部材を拡径方向に弾性変形させる方法である。   The pressure vessel manufacturing method of the present invention that solves the above problems is a method of manufacturing the above-described pressure vessel of the present invention, wherein the liner portion is molded with a molding die on which the base portion and the seal reinforcing member are placed. An insert molding step, and in the insert molding step, when the base and the seal reinforcing member are placed on the mold surface of the molding die, an outer peripheral surface of the base extension portion and an inner periphery of the seal reinforcing member A mold outer surface of the mold that is separated from at least a part of the surface and faces the outer peripheral surface of the seal reinforcing member and an outer peripheral surface of the seal reinforcing member are spaced apart from each other in the radial direction of the base extending portion. The molding material for molding the liner portion is injected into the molding die on which the base portion and the sealing reinforcement member are placed, and the seal is supplemented by injection pressure. A method to elastically deform the member in the diameter direction.

本発明の圧力容器の製造方法は、下記の(4)を備えるのが好ましい。
(4)前記インサート成形工程前に、前記口金部に前記シール層を塗装形成するシール層形成工程を備える。
The pressure vessel manufacturing method of the present invention preferably includes the following (4).
(4) A seal layer forming step of coating the seal layer on the base portion before the insert molding step is provided.

本発明の圧力容器は、従来の圧力容器のように口金部とライナー部との間をOリングでシールするのではなく、口金部、ライナー部およびシール補強部材を一体に成形することによって、ライナー部の外側に一体化されているシール補強部材で、口金部とライナー部との間を外側から押さえ込む。このため、予め成形したライナー部に口金部およびOリングを挿入する従来の圧力容器とは異なり、シール補強部材および口金部をライナー部に挿入する必要はない。したがって、本発明の圧力容器によると、Oリングを必要とせず、Oリングの装着不具合も発生しない。よって、本発明の圧力容器によると、ライナー部、シール補強部材および口金部を正しい位置かつ正しい形状で互いに容易に取り付けることができ、ライナー部と口金部とのシール性が向上する。   The pressure vessel of the present invention does not seal between the base portion and the liner portion with an O-ring unlike the conventional pressure vessel, but forms the base portion, the liner portion, and the seal reinforcing member integrally. The seal reinforcement member integrated on the outside of the part presses between the base part and the liner part from the outside. For this reason, unlike the conventional pressure vessel which inserts a base part and an O-ring into a preformed liner part, it is not necessary to insert a seal reinforcing member and a base part into the liner part. Therefore, according to the pressure vessel of the present invention, the O-ring is not required, and the mounting failure of the O-ring does not occur. Therefore, according to the pressure vessel of the present invention, the liner part, the seal reinforcing member, and the base part can be easily attached to each other in the correct position and in the correct shape, and the sealing performance between the liner part and the base part is improved.

上記(1)を備える本発明の圧力容器においては、シール補強部材が変形し難いため、ライナー部と口金部とのシール性がより向上する。   In the pressure vessel of the present invention having the above (1), since the seal reinforcing member is hardly deformed, the sealing performance between the liner portion and the base portion is further improved.

上記(2)を備える本発明の圧力容器は、フランジ部の底面とこの底面に対面するライナー部の上面との間、および/または、口金延出部の外周面とライナー部の内周面との間をシール層によってシールできる。このため、上記(2)を備える本発明の圧力容器によると、ライナー部と口金部とのシール性がさらに向上する。   The pressure vessel of the present invention comprising the above (2) is provided between the bottom surface of the flange portion and the top surface of the liner portion facing the bottom surface, and / or the outer peripheral surface of the base extension portion and the inner peripheral surface of the liner portion. The space can be sealed with a sealing layer. For this reason, according to the pressure vessel of this invention provided with said (2), the sealing performance of a liner part and a nozzle | cap | die part further improves.

ところで、例えば圧力容器に液体水素を充填する場合等、圧力容器内部から外部に向けた加圧物質の漏出量を最低限抑制する必要がある場合がある。このときライナー部が加圧物質を遮断できなければ、ライナー部を透過した加圧物質がライナー部と口金部との間に進入し、圧力容器の外部に漏出する可能性がある。   By the way, for example, when the pressure vessel is filled with liquid hydrogen, it may be necessary to suppress the leakage amount of the pressurized substance from the inside of the pressure vessel to the outside at a minimum. At this time, if the liner part cannot block the pressurized substance, the pressurized substance that has passed through the liner part may enter between the liner part and the base part and leak out of the pressure vessel.

例えば一般的なOリングによってライナー部と口金延出部との隙間をシールする場合、この隙間は線状にシールされる。この場合、Oリングはライナー部の内周面と口金延出部の外周面の間に挟持されて、加圧物質をシールする。このため、三者(すなわち、Oリング、ライナー部および口金延出部)の表面は各々充分に平滑である必要がある。このため、特に樹脂製であるライナー部の内周面の状態を考慮して、Oリングの位置設定をする必要がある。さらに、ライナー部は樹脂製であるため、補強を考慮する必要もある。   For example, when the gap between the liner portion and the base extension portion is sealed with a general O-ring, the gap is sealed linearly. In this case, the O-ring is sandwiched between the inner peripheral surface of the liner portion and the outer peripheral surface of the base extension portion to seal the pressurized substance. For this reason, the surfaces of the three parties (that is, the O-ring, the liner portion, and the base extension portion) must each be sufficiently smooth. For this reason, it is necessary to set the position of the O-ring particularly in consideration of the state of the inner peripheral surface of the resin liner. Furthermore, since the liner portion is made of resin, it is necessary to consider reinforcement.

これに対して、上記(3)を備える本発明の圧力容器においては、シール補強部材が口金延出部の延出方向(つまり口金延出部の軸方向)に延びている。このためライナー部と口金延出部は、シール補強部材の軸方向長さ分だけ面シールする。したがって、ライナー部、口金延出部および口金延出部の外周面に形成されたシール層は、シール補強部により強固に圧縮されて、ライナー部と口金延出部との間に隙間が形成され難い。このため、口金部とライナー部との境界部分に沿った圧力容器内外部への加圧物質の漏出を抑制できる。よって、上記(3)を備える本発明の圧力容器は、ライナー部と口金部とのシール性に優れるとともに種々の加圧物質に対応できる。   On the other hand, in the pressure vessel of the present invention having the above (3), the seal reinforcing member extends in the extending direction of the base extending part (that is, the axial direction of the base extending part). For this reason, the liner portion and the base extension portion are face-sealed by the axial length of the seal reinforcing member. Therefore, the seal layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of the liner part, the base extension part, and the base extension part is strongly compressed by the seal reinforcing part, and a gap is formed between the liner part and the base extension part. hard. For this reason, the leakage of the pressurized substance to the inside and outside of the pressure vessel along the boundary portion between the base portion and the liner portion can be suppressed. Therefore, the pressure vessel of the present invention provided with the above (3) has excellent sealing properties between the liner part and the base part, and can cope with various pressurized substances.

本発明の圧力容器の製造方法は、口金部およびシール補強部材を載置した成形型でライナー部をインサート成形する工程(インサート成形工程)において、射出圧によってシール補強部材を拡径方向に弾性変形させる。弾性変形したシール補強部材はもとの形状に戻ろうとするため、ライナー部を口金部に向けて押圧する。よって、本発明の圧力容器の製造方法によると、口金部とライナー部とのシール性に優れた本発明の圧力容器を容易に製造できる。また、上述したようにOリングおよび口金部をライナー部に挿入する工程を必要としないため、Oリングの装着不具合が生じない。さらに、シール補強部材による締め付け力を信頼性高く発生させることができる。このため、本発明の製造方法によると、口金部とライナー部とのシール性に優れる圧力容器を容易に製造できる。   The method of manufacturing a pressure vessel according to the present invention includes elastically deforming a seal reinforcing member in a diameter-enlarging direction by injection pressure in a step of insert-molding a liner portion (insert molding step) with a mold on which a base portion and a seal reinforcing member are placed. Let Since the elastically deformed seal reinforcing member tries to return to the original shape, the liner portion is pressed toward the base portion. Therefore, according to the pressure vessel manufacturing method of the present invention, it is possible to easily manufacture the pressure vessel of the present invention having excellent sealing properties between the cap portion and the liner portion. Further, as described above, since the step of inserting the O-ring and the base part into the liner part is not required, there is no problem of mounting the O-ring. Furthermore, the tightening force by the seal reinforcing member can be generated with high reliability. For this reason, according to the manufacturing method of this invention, the pressure vessel excellent in the sealing performance of a nozzle | cap | die part and a liner part can be manufactured easily.

上記(4)を備える本発明の製造方法によると、シール層によってライナー部と口金部とのシール性を向上させるとともに、シール層を口金部に塗装形成することでシール層を口金部によって補強でき、ライナー部を成形する際におけるシール層の変形を抑制できる。このため、口金部とライナー部とのシール性に優れる圧力容器を容易に製造できる。なお、本発明の圧力容器におけるシール層としては、ライナー部と別体で成形したものを用いても良い。この場合には、予め成形したシール層を加硫接着等の方法で口金部に一体化したものをインサートとして、ライナー部をインサート成形しても良い。或いは、シール層の材料や形状を適宜選択することでシール層の剛性を高め、口金部、シール補強部材およびシール層をインサートとしてライナー部をインサート成形しても良い。   According to the manufacturing method of the present invention including the above (4), the seal layer can improve the sealing performance between the liner part and the base part, and the seal layer can be reinforced by the base part by forming the seal layer on the base part. The deformation of the seal layer when molding the liner portion can be suppressed. For this reason, the pressure vessel which is excellent in the sealing performance of a cap part and a liner part can be manufactured easily. In addition, as a sealing layer in the pressure vessel of this invention, you may use what was shape | molded separately from the liner part. In this case, the liner part may be insert-molded with a seal layer formed in advance and integrated with the base part by a method such as vulcanization adhesion. Alternatively, the seal layer may be rigidly selected by appropriately selecting the material and shape of the seal layer, and the liner portion may be insert-molded using the base portion, the seal reinforcing member, and the seal layer as inserts.

以下、図面を基に本発明の圧力容器およびその製造方法を説明する。   Hereinafter, a pressure vessel and a manufacturing method thereof according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 2, the flange bottom seal portion 110 covers the bottom surface 210 of the flange portion 21. The flange upper surface seal portion 111 covers a part of the upper surface 211 of the flange portion 21 (the surface on the axially outer side in the flange portion 21, the upper surface in FIG. 1). The boss seal portion 112 covers the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extension portion 22. The general part 113 is another part.

口金延出部22の外周面220およびフランジ部21の底面210には、シール層4が塗装形成されている。シール層4の材料としてはシリコーン系の塗料(モメンティブ・パフォーマンス・マテリアルズ社製、TSR180)を用いた。このシール層4は膜厚80μm程度である。   The seal layer 4 is painted on the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extension portion 22 and the bottom surface 210 of the flange portion 21. As the material of the seal layer 4, a silicone-based paint (manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials, TSR180) was used. The seal layer 4 has a thickness of about 80 μm.

口金延出部22およびシール層4の径方向外側(つまり外周側)には、無端のリング状をなすシール補強部材3が配置されている。詳しくは、図3に示すように、シール補強部材3は、軸方向に延びる無端のリング状(短筒状)をなす補強本体部30と、無端のリング状をなし補強本体部30の下側に一体化されている補強脚部31とを持ち、口金延出部22に外装されている。補強本体部30および補強脚部31の内径は同じであり、補強脚部31の外径は補強本体部30の外径よりも大きい。つまり、シール補強部材3は、断面L字状をなす。実施例1の圧力容器において、シール補強部材3の軸方向長さは、口金延出部22の軸方向長さの3/4以上であり、口金延出部22の軸方向長さよりもやや短い。   A seal reinforcing member 3 having an endless ring shape is disposed on the radially outer side (that is, the outer peripheral side) of the base extension portion 22 and the seal layer 4. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, the seal reinforcing member 3 includes an endless ring-shaped (short cylindrical shape) reinforcing main body 30 extending in the axial direction, and an endless ring-shaped lower portion of the reinforcing main body 30. And a reinforcing leg 31 integrated with the base, and is externally mounted on the base extension 22. The inner diameters of the reinforcing main body 30 and the reinforcing leg 31 are the same, and the outer diameter of the reinforcing leg 31 is larger than the outer diameter of the reinforcing main body 30. That is, the seal reinforcing member 3 has an L-shaped cross section. In the pressure vessel of Example 1, the axial length of the seal reinforcing member 3 is not less than 3/4 of the axial length of the base extension 22 and is slightly shorter than the axial length of the base extension 22. .

シール補強部材3は、オーステナイト系ステンレス鋼(SUS 316L)製である。SUS316Lは殆ど水素脆化しないことが知られており、液体水素を加圧物質とする圧力容器の材料として好ましく用いられる。なお、SUS 316LはJIS規格による名称であり、ASTM規格による316Lと略同じものである。   The seal reinforcing member 3 is made of austenitic stainless steel (SUS 316L). SUS316L is known to hardly embrittle hydrogen, and is preferably used as a pressure vessel material using liquid hydrogen as a pressurized substance. Note that SUS 316L is a name according to the JIS standard and is substantially the same as 316L according to the ASTM standard.

図2に示すように、ライナー部11の一部であるボスシール部112は、シール補強部材3の外周面300、シール補強部材3の内周面301、およびシール層4の外周面400に一体化されている。ボスシール部112のなかでシール補強部材3の径方向外側(外周側)に位置する部分を外ボスシール部115と呼ぶ。また、ボスシール部112のなかでシール補強部材3の径方向内側(内周側)に位置する部分を内ボスシール部116と呼ぶ。   As shown in FIG. 2, the boss seal portion 112 that is a part of the liner portion 11 is integrated with the outer peripheral surface 300 of the seal reinforcing member 3, the inner peripheral surface 301 of the seal reinforcing member 3, and the outer peripheral surface 400 of the seal layer 4. Has been. A portion of the boss seal portion 112 that is located on the radially outer side (outer peripheral side) of the seal reinforcing member 3 is referred to as an outer boss seal portion 115. Further, a portion of the boss seal portion 112 that is located on the radially inner side (inner peripheral side) of the seal reinforcing member 3 is referred to as an inner boss seal portion 116.

実施例1の圧力容器は以下のように製造する。   The pressure vessel of Example 1 is manufactured as follows.

先ず、口金部2におけるフランジ部21の底面210と、口金延出部22の外周面220とにシール層4の材料であるシリコーン系塗料を塗布し、130℃で2.5時間加熱することで、シール層4を塗装形成する。   First, a silicone-based paint that is a material for the seal layer 4 is applied to the bottom surface 210 of the flange portion 21 in the base portion 2 and the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extension portion 22, and heated at 130 ° C. for 2.5 hours. The seal layer 4 is formed by painting.

成形型5の型面にシール補強部材3を載置する。次いで、図3に示すように、シール層4が形成された口金部2の口金延出部22をシール補強部材3の内側に差し込む。したがって成形型5の型面には、図4に示すように、シール層4、口金部2およびシール補強部材3の一体品が載置される。成形型5のなかでシール補強部材3に対面する型面50はテーパ形状をなす。このため、図6に示すように、シール補強部材3の外周面300のなかで補強脚部31の下端に位置する部分は型面50に当接し、シール層4、口金部2およびシール補強部材3が成形型5内に位置決めされる。なお、このとき、シール補強部材3の外周面300の大部分は、型面50と離間している。また、このとき、シール補強部材3の内周面301は、シール層4の外周面400および口金延出部22の外周面220と離間している。   The seal reinforcing member 3 is placed on the mold surface of the mold 5. Next, as shown in FIG. 3, the base extension part 22 of the base part 2 on which the seal layer 4 is formed is inserted inside the seal reinforcing member 3. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 4, an integrated product of the seal layer 4, the base portion 2, and the seal reinforcing member 3 is placed on the mold surface of the mold 5. The mold surface 50 facing the seal reinforcing member 3 in the mold 5 has a tapered shape. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 6, the part located in the lower end of the reinforcement leg part 31 in the outer peripheral surface 300 of the seal reinforcement member 3 is contact | abutted to the type | mold surface 50, and the seal layer 4, the nozzle | cap | die part 2, and a seal reinforcement member 3 is positioned in the mold 5. At this time, most of the outer peripheral surface 300 of the seal reinforcing member 3 is separated from the mold surface 50. At this time, the inner peripheral surface 301 of the seal reinforcing member 3 is separated from the outer peripheral surface 400 of the seal layer 4 and the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extension portion 22.

図5に示すように、シール層4、口金部2およびシール補強部材3が載置された成形型5に溶融または軟化したEVOH(以下、単に溶融樹脂と呼ぶ)を射出して、ライナー部11を成形する。このとき、溶融樹脂は成形型5のゲート51から成形型5内に形成されているキャビティ500に充填される。   As shown in FIG. 5, melted or softened EVOH (hereinafter simply referred to as molten resin) is injected into a mold 5 on which the seal layer 4, the base portion 2, and the seal reinforcing member 3 are placed, and the liner portion 11. Is molded. At this time, the molten resin is filled from the gate 51 of the mold 5 into the cavity 500 formed in the mold 5.

ところで、図6に示すように、シール補強部材3の内周面301と、口金延出部22の外周面220(実施例1においては、外周面220に形成されているシール層4の外周面400)とは離間している。このため溶融樹脂は、シール補強部材3の内周面301とシール層4の外周面400との隙間に優先して充填される。この隙間に充填された溶融樹脂は、図7に示すように、シール補強部材3を径方向外側に押圧する。上述したように、シール補強部材3の外周面300の大部分と、成形型5の型面50とは離間している。したがってシール補強部材3は、この隙間分だけ拡径可能である。また、シール補強部材3は弾性変形可能である。このため、口金部2とシール補強部材3との間に進入した溶融樹脂による押圧力、つまりインサート成形時の射出圧により、シール補強部材3は弾性的に拡径する。   By the way, as shown in FIG. 6, the inner peripheral surface 301 of the seal reinforcing member 3 and the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extension 22 (in the first embodiment, the outer peripheral surface of the seal layer 4 formed on the outer peripheral surface 220). 400). Therefore, the molten resin is preferentially filled in the gap between the inner peripheral surface 301 of the seal reinforcing member 3 and the outer peripheral surface 400 of the seal layer 4. The molten resin filled in the gap presses the seal reinforcing member 3 radially outward as shown in FIG. As described above, most of the outer peripheral surface 300 of the seal reinforcing member 3 and the mold surface 50 of the mold 5 are separated from each other. Therefore, the diameter of the seal reinforcing member 3 can be increased by this gap. Further, the seal reinforcing member 3 can be elastically deformed. For this reason, the diameter of the seal reinforcing member 3 is elastically expanded by the pressing force of the molten resin that has entered between the base portion 2 and the seal reinforcing member 3, that is, the injection pressure at the time of insert molding.

図8に示すように、射出後、シール補強部材3に作用していた射出圧が低下すると、シール補強部材3は自身の弾性により、元の形状に戻ろうとする。つまりシール補強部材3は縮径しようとする。このためシール補強部材3は、図7および図8に示すように、内ボスシール部116、シール層4および口金延出部22を径方向内方に向けて押圧する。このため内ボスシール部116と口金延出部22とはシール性高くシールされる。さらに、成形後にライナー部11が樹脂収縮すると、内ボスシール部116が縮径して口金延出部22に圧接する。このことによっても、内ボスシール部116と口金延出部22とはシール性高くシールされる。同様に、外ボスシール部115が縮径してシール補強部材3、内ボスシール部116およびシール層4を口金延出部22に押圧する。このことによっても、内ボスシール部116と口金延出部22とはシール性高くシールされる。   As shown in FIG. 8, after the injection, when the injection pressure acting on the seal reinforcing member 3 decreases, the seal reinforcing member 3 tries to return to its original shape due to its own elasticity. That is, the seal reinforcing member 3 tries to reduce the diameter. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the seal reinforcing member 3 presses the inner boss seal portion 116, the seal layer 4 and the base extension portion 22 inward in the radial direction. For this reason, the inner boss seal part 116 and the base extension part 22 are sealed with high sealing performance. Further, when the liner portion 11 shrinks after the molding, the inner boss seal portion 116 shrinks and comes into pressure contact with the base extending portion 22. Also by this, the inner boss seal part 116 and the base extension part 22 are sealed with high sealing performance. Similarly, the outer boss seal portion 115 is reduced in diameter and presses the seal reinforcing member 3, the inner boss seal portion 116, and the seal layer 4 against the base extension portion 22. Also by this, the inner boss seal part 116 and the base extension part 22 are sealed with high sealing performance.

シール補強部材3は、口金延出部22の軸方向に延びる短筒状をなす。このため、シール補強部材3による押圧力は、シール補強部材3の軸方向に連続して作用する。このため内ボスシール部116と口金延出部22とは周方向だけでなく軸方向にも接触する。つまり、内ボスシール部116と口金延出部22とは、シール補強部材3の軸方向長さ分だけ面接触し、互いに面シールする。このため実施例1の圧力容器においては、シール補強部材3の軸方向にわたって、ライナー部11と口金延出部22との間に隙間が形成され難い。つまり実施例1の圧力容器は、液体水素等を充填するための圧力容器としても好適に使用できる。   The seal reinforcing member 3 has a short cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction of the base extending portion 22. For this reason, the pressing force by the seal reinforcing member 3 acts continuously in the axial direction of the seal reinforcing member 3. For this reason, the inner boss seal part 116 and the base extension part 22 contact not only in the circumferential direction but also in the axial direction. That is, the inner boss seal part 116 and the base extension part 22 are in surface contact by the axial length of the seal reinforcing member 3 and are face-sealed. For this reason, in the pressure vessel of Example 1, it is difficult to form a gap between the liner portion 11 and the base extension portion 22 in the axial direction of the seal reinforcing member 3. That is, the pressure vessel of Example 1 can be suitably used as a pressure vessel for filling liquid hydrogen or the like.

なお、実施例の圧力容器において、ボスシール部112は内ボスシール部116と外ボスシール部115とで構成されているが、成形型5の型面50とシール補強部材3の外周面300との相対位置によっては、外ボスシール部115を持たない場合もある。   In the pressure vessel according to the embodiment, the boss seal portion 112 includes the inner boss seal portion 116 and the outer boss seal portion 115. Depending on the case, the outer boss seal 115 may not be provided.

内ボスシール部116の肉厚は、キャビティ500のなかで内ボスシール部116を形成する領域の厚さに応じて決定される。この領域の厚さは、シール補強部材3の内周面301と口金延出部22の外周面220との距離(口金部2の外周面にシール層4を形成する場合には、シール層4の外周面400との距離)と一致する。この距離は、インサート成形工程においてシール補強部材3を径方向外方に向けて弾性変形させ得るだけの溶融樹脂を充填可能な距離であれば良く、射出圧や溶融樹脂の流動性、内ボスシール部116の軸方向長さ等に応じて適宜設定できる。好ましくは、シール補強部材3の内周面と口金部2の外周面との距離は1mm以上であるのが良く、内ボスシール部116の肉厚もまた1mm以上であるのが良い。   The wall thickness of the inner boss seal portion 116 is determined according to the thickness of the region in the cavity 500 where the inner boss seal portion 116 is formed. The thickness of this region is the distance between the inner peripheral surface 301 of the seal reinforcing member 3 and the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extension 22 (when the seal layer 4 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the base 2, the seal layer 4 To the outer peripheral surface 400). This distance may be any distance that can be filled with a molten resin that can elastically deform the seal reinforcing member 3 radially outward in the insert molding process. The injection pressure, the fluidity of the molten resin, the inner boss seal portion It can be set as appropriate according to the axial length of 116 or the like. Preferably, the distance between the inner peripheral surface of the seal reinforcing member 3 and the outer peripheral surface of the base portion 2 is 1 mm or more, and the thickness of the inner boss seal portion 116 is also 1 mm or more.

シール補強部材3は弾性変形可能な材料からなれば良くその材料は特に限定しないが、縮径方向の締め付け力を十分に大きくすることを考慮すると、高剛性であるのが好ましく、例えばステンレス鋼等の金属からなるのが好ましい。シール補強部材3は単なるリング状であっても良いし、軸方向に長さをもつ形状(つまり筒状)であっても良く、その軸方向長さは特に問わないが、筒状であるのが好ましい。シール補強部材3の軸方向長さは、口金延出部22の軸方向長さの1/2以上であるのが良く、3/4以上であるのがより好ましい。また、シール補強部材3の形状は実施例1の形状に限らず、例えばシール補強部材3を補強本体部30のみで構成しても良い。   The seal reinforcing member 3 may be made of an elastically deformable material, and the material is not particularly limited. However, considering that the tightening force in the diameter reducing direction is sufficiently large, it is preferable that the seal reinforcing member 3 has high rigidity, such as stainless steel. It is preferable to consist of these metals. The seal reinforcing member 3 may have a simple ring shape or a shape having a length in the axial direction (that is, a cylindrical shape), and the axial length is not particularly limited, but is cylindrical. Is preferred. The axial length of the seal reinforcing member 3 is preferably ½ or more of the axial length of the base extension 22 and more preferably ¾ or more. Further, the shape of the seal reinforcing member 3 is not limited to the shape of the first embodiment. For example, the seal reinforcing member 3 may be configured by only the reinforcing main body 30.

シール層4は口金部2およびライナー部11の密着性(シール性)を十分に保つことができれば良く、その材料や膜厚等は特に限定しないが、シリコーン(シリコン樹脂)、ワニス等が好ましく用いられる。シール層4の膜厚は40〜120μm程度であるのが好ましい。   The sealing layer 4 is not particularly limited as long as the adhesion (sealability) between the base portion 2 and the liner portion 11 can be sufficiently maintained, and the material and film thickness thereof are not particularly limited, but silicone (silicone resin), varnish, and the like are preferably used. It is done. The thickness of the seal layer 4 is preferably about 40 to 120 μm.

実施例1の圧力容器におけるライナー部11はEVOHからなるが、本発明の圧力容器におけるライナー部11の材料は、充填すべき加圧物質に応じて適宜選択すればよい。例えば、PPS(ポリフェニレンサルファイド)、ポリエチレン、ナイロン等がライナー部11の材料として好ましく用いられる。   The liner portion 11 in the pressure vessel of Example 1 is made of EVOH, but the material of the liner portion 11 in the pressure vessel of the present invention may be appropriately selected according to the pressurized substance to be filled. For example, PPS (polyphenylene sulfide), polyethylene, nylon, or the like is preferably used as the material of the liner portion 11.

実施例1の圧力容器における補強部10は、カーボン繊維とエポキシ樹脂とを含むFRPからなるが、カーボン繊維にかえてガラス繊維やアラミド繊維等を用いても良い。   The reinforcing portion 10 in the pressure vessel of Example 1 is made of FRP containing carbon fiber and epoxy resin, but glass fiber or aramid fiber may be used instead of carbon fiber.

実施例1の圧力容器におけるボスシール部112は、口金延出部22の外周面220の軸方向全体を覆っているが、軸方向の一部を覆うだけでも良い。つまり、口金延出部22の一部がボスシール部112よりも下側にまで延出していても良い。あるいは、ボスシール部112がさらに口金延出部22の底面221(軸方向端面、図1中下側の端面)を覆っても良い。   The boss seal portion 112 in the pressure vessel of the first embodiment covers the entire axial direction of the outer peripheral surface 220 of the base extending portion 22, but it may only cover a part in the axial direction. That is, a part of the base extension part 22 may extend to a lower side than the boss seal part 112. Alternatively, the boss seal portion 112 may further cover the bottom surface 221 (the axial end surface, the lower end surface in FIG. 1) of the base extending portion 22.

本発明の圧力容器は、例えば水素ガス、CNG、LNG、LPG等の各種液化ガスを充填するための圧力容器として好ましく使用できる。車載用の圧力容器として特に好ましく使用できる。   The pressure vessel of the present invention can be preferably used as a pressure vessel for filling various liquefied gases such as hydrogen gas, CNG, LNG, and LPG. It can be particularly preferably used as an on-vehicle pressure vessel.
