Abstract:
A liquid storage tank broadly comprising a drum, a bottom chime, and a top chime. The bottom chime and top chime each include drum engaging geometry for positively connecting the chimes to the drum and retaining the chimes on the drum when the drum is holding liquid and subjected to lifting forces. The top chime also includes forklift openings and alignment and anti-rotation geometry configured to prevent the top chime from rotating relative to the drum when the drum is lifted via a forklift fork extending through the forklift openings so that the forklift fork does not damage a top wall or bung openings of the drum.
