Definitions

  • This invention relates to containers for gases or liquids under high pressure.
  • containers of this type are capable to resist to the high internal pressure, they 5 have been constructed hitherto in cylindrical shape .and with a correspondingly thick wall.
  • the object of the invention is to afford big containers for gases and liquids under high pressure and having comparatively thin walls which object is obtained by providing double walls and filling the space existing between them with a means impervious tc fluids while the walls are propped relatively to one another.
  • the container has a quadrangular cross section
  • the propping means may consist of anchor bolts extending normally to the walls, whilst in a cylindrical container the walls may be propped by supporting members which extend annularly or spirally inside or outside the outer wall.
  • Fig. l is a longitudinal sectional View of one form of my invention
  • Figs. 2 4 are longitudinal sectional views of different embodiments thereof.
  • the container consists of a jacket a and a container proper b oi any suitable material such as metal, concrete or the like, the space c existing between jacket a and container b being Iilled with a viscous liquid impervious toizids for instance of' a nature so as to be thick or solid at normal temperature but when heated becomes liquid and then is capable to fill the entire intermediate space c.
  • Tar or a similar material may be used for this purpose.
  • the container b may have only a comparatively small Wall thickness as it transmits the internal pressure through the tightening mass c to the jacket a which is anchored in itself.
  • the concrete wall of the latter can be made of armored concrete.
  • anchor bolts d In order to mutually prop the outer walls of the described gas or liquid container of quadrangular cross section, anchor bolts d,
  • c, f, Figure l are provided which as to be seen from this ligure either pass through the wall of the jacket a and are held in place by nuts g and washers m of suitable size, or have their ends embedded in the wall of jacket a as illustrated in Figure 2, which ends have any suitable shape so as to reliably anchor the bolts within the wall of jacket a.
  • the longitudi 70 nal anchor bolts c of Figures l to 3 may be dispensed with in an oblong container as illustrated, by designing the front walls of' the jacket a so as to subside into abutments h which have a correspondingly large base z' the area of which must correspond to the internal pressure acting on the front walls.
  • containers of this type generally are embedded'in the ground the earth mass in its turn forms the abutment for the abutments L.
  • iron rods may be further provided which are embedded or inserted in the wall of jacket a.
  • the modification illustrated in Figure 3 may also be used in erecting cylindrical containers.
  • the iront walls of jacket a are likewise propped on one another by longitudinal anchor bolts e whilst the side wall, if cylindrical, is so strengthened either by external metal rings or by a coiled wire n so as to resist to radial pressure.
  • a container for gases or liquids under high pressure comprising an inner and an outer container spaced from each other, a
  • Viscous substance impervious to iiuids in 'thev space between said containers means for bracing said'out'er container to withstand pressure, said inner container serving merely as a partition between the contents of said inner container and ,said viscous substance.
