Definitions

  • This invention relates to metal boss for fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders with non- metallic inliners intended to use for compressed liquefied and dissolved gases.
  • Pressure cylinders for fluids have been commonly known for many years, based on metal as construction material. Pressure cylinders for fluids have several uses, such as gas cylinders in hospitals and fuel cylinders for motor vehicles, but also in smaller scale such as propane cylinders for gas stoves in cottages, camping caravans and small crafts or boats. In recent years fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders have been put on the market.
  • a fully wrapped composite pressure cylinder for compressed liquefied and dissolved gases consists of 4 major parts:
  • the composite pressure cylinders with non-metallic inliner are having a thin barrier inliner of plastics polymer which is covered with composite material (composite case) to take the load of pressure of gas filled inside.
  • composite material composite case
  • the composite case is covered by an outer shell made out of plastics giving the composite pressure cylinder a protective shielding against impact damage.
  • the metallic boss In conventional fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders the metallic boss is covered by polymer, building the boss assembly, using injection moulding and some joints are formed at the meeting surface of plastics and metal.
  • the conventional metallic boss is of smaller size and for tightening the brass valve pressure cylinders are to be held on the body to get proper torque. There is no protection on the boss assembly between metal and plastics in case of extreme temperature, with pressure cycle's gap can generate between metal and plastics and gas may escape from there.
  • the main object of the present invention is to obviate the above drawbacks.
  • Another object of the present invention is to devise a metallic boss assembly wherein the joints between metal and plastics are sealed by rubber seals or other suitable seals to restrain gas leakage. i:.'
  • Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders wherein the composite pressure cylinder can be held by the metallic boss assembly without damaging or deforming the cylinder during fixing or removal of the brass valve.
  • Yet another objective of this invention is to provide some additional serviceable sealing parts in the metallic boss which can be replaced in case of any leakages in extreme temperature cycles.
  • Yet another objective of this invention is to provide fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders with built in discharge tube for horizontal composite pressure cylinder applications and standard brass valves.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide fully wrapped composite cylinders with metallic boss capable of adapting various type of filling/discharge brass valves without modification in the construction.
  • Figure 1 shows a fully wrapped composite pressure cylinder.
  • Figure 2 shows the cross section of a fully wrapped composite pressure cylinder with conventional metallic boss (prior art).

  • the fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders with metallic boss are capable of adapting various type of filling/discharge brass valves without modification in the construction.
  • the devised metallic boss wherein joints between metal and plastics are protected by rubber seals and filled in gas does not reach to that area.
  • the fully wrapped composite pressure cylinders can be held by the metallic boss hexagonal head without damaging or deforming the cylinder for fixing or removal of the brass valve.
  • the fully wrapped composite pressure cylinder is provided with some additional sealing parts in the boss center which can be serviced or changed in case of any leakages in extreme temperature cycles.
  • the fully wrapped composite cylinders are provided with built in discharge tubes for horizontal composite pressure cylinder applications and standard brass valves. According to present invention a fully wrapped composite pressure cylinder for compressed liquefied and dissolved gases consists of 4 major parts:
  • the metallic boss is welded to the inliner by its polymer enclosure.
  • This invention is to have some additional sealing of the boss assembly, before the filled in gas reach the conventional metallic boss and polymer enclosure joint sealing.
  • This provision is made by inserting a sealing insert with O-rings.
  • This sealing insert can be threaded in the metallic boss, welded or press- fitted.
  • the sealing insert can be of metal, plastics or any other material.
  • the height of the metallic part of the boss assembly is also extended up to the top, also covered by the polymer enclosure and profiled in a manner to be hold by using conventional spanners for tightening or unscrewing the brass valve. Provision is also made to accommodate any brass valve with ISO standard thread's available and used conventionally by the extended and reinforced top of the boss assembly. Due to the extended height of the metallic boss part some additional grooves can be provided on his enclosure surface to reduce the risk of leaking or escaping of filled in gas.
  • FIG.01 shows a composite pressure cylinder (1) according the invention.
  • the outer shell (4) is covering the composite case (3) and protecting the brass valve (6).
  • FIG 02 shows a cut through a composite pressure container (1) according the state of art.

  • the boss assembly (7) can be held by the polymer enclosed metallic boss hexagonal head (9).
  • the metallic boss hexagonal head (9) increases the stiffness of the upper part of the metallic boss part (8) and a longer boss assembly (7) increases also the length of the metallic boss enclosure surface (11).
  • With an enlarged length of the metallic boss enclosure surface (11) the risk of leaking or escaping of filled in gas is reduced and the longer cylindrical part of the metallic boss part (8) allows the formation of outer sealing grooves (15).

  • FIG.08 shows a cut through an installed boss assembly (7) according the invention with the brass valve with these additional features:
  • the central hole of the modified sealing insert (12) is closed at his lower end, the compressed liquefied and dissolved gases have to pass some radial holes, this will divide gas stream, change the direction of flow, reduce the velocity of the gas entering into composite cylinder and also reduce the build-up of electric and/or electrostatic charges which may produce sparks igniting the gas, in particular during filling of the cylinder.
  • the height of the metallic part of the boss assembly is also extended up to the top, also covered by the polymer enclosure and profiled in a manner to be hold by using conventional spanners for tightening or unscrewing the brass valve.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un bossage métallique pour des bouteilles sous pression en matériau composite carénées pourvues d'un revêtement intérieur non métallique et destinées à être utilisées pour des gaz comprimés liquéfiés et dissous. Les bouteilles sous pression en matériau composite carénées pourvues d'un bossage métallique permettent d'adapter divers types de soupapes en laiton de remplissage/évacuation sans modification de la structure. Dans le bossage métallique décrit, les joints ménagés entre le métal et le plastique sont protégés par des éléments d'étanchéité en caoutchouc, le gaz injecté n'atteignant pas la surface de raccordement. Les bouteilles sous pression en matériau composite carénées peuvent être maintenues par la tête hexagonale du bossage métallique sans qu'elles soient endommagées ou déformées afin de fixer ou de retirer la soupape en laiton. La bouteille sous pression en matériau composite carénée est pourvue de pièces d'étanchéité additionnelles dans le centre du bossage qui peuvent être réparées ou remplacées en cas de fuites dans des cycles de températures extrêmes. Les bouteilles en matériau composite carénées comportent des tubes d'évacuation intégrés pour des utilisations à l'horizontale, ainsi que des soupapes en laiton standard.
