Abstract:
A hydraulic accumulator (14) is equipped with a novel shut-off valve. The shut off-valve includes a valve body (21) having a cylindrical hollow with a valve seat (37) surrounding one end. The main piston (24) including a piston head has a central opening (30) and is slidably mounted within the cylindrical hollow of the valve body. A poppet valve (22) has a valve head which mates with the valve seat and a valve stem which extends through the central opening of the piston to guide axial movement of the poppet valve relative to the piston. A spring (23) is mounted between the valve head and the main piston head for urging the valve head away from the piston head. A control valve (27) moves the piston relative to the valve body between open and closed positions responsive to signals from a computer (72) which signals valve closing upon determination that flow rate through the valve exceeds a maximum period. The spring between the poppet valve head and the piston head exerts a force approximately equal to that of a pressure drop across the poppet valve at a predetermined maximum flow rate.

Eine Fülleinrichtung für einen mit einem Gewindeverschluss versehenen kugelförmigen Gasbehälter (1) einer hydro-pneumatischen Federeinrichtung hat einen Austauschverschluss (2) mit gleichem Aussengewinde (3) wie der Gewindeverschluss, einen zylindrischen Teil (4) und eine Bohrung (5) mit Innengewinde sowie einen zylindrischen Gewindestift (9) mit einem an einem Ende angeordneten, in dieses Innengewinde passenden ersten Aussengewinde (8) und mit einem am anderen Ende angeordneten zweiten Aussengewinde (10), dessen Gewindesteigung der des Austauschverschlusses (2) entspricht. Die Fülleinrichtung weistfemer ein Spannelement (20) mit einem Flansch (22) und einem abdichtenden, das zweite Aussengewinde (10) des Gewindestifte (9) umgebende Teil (23) auf, das von einer mit einer Füllöffnung (28) versehenen zylindrischen Füllhülse (25) abdichtend passend umschlossen ist, die abdichtend zwischen dem Flansch (22) und der Wandung des Gasbehälters (1) eingespannt werden kann.
Abstract:
A bladder and attachment member assembly for use with a container comprises an elastomeric gas-filled bladder comprising a valve stem. A first attachment member is disposed over the valve stem within the container with the bladder. A second attachment member is disposed over the valve stem and over the first attachment member. The second attachment member is outside of the container interposed between the valve stem and a container opening. Rotational movement of the valve stem is fixed relative to one or both of the first and second attachment members. In an example, the valve stem comprises one or more surface features that register with one or more surface features of the first and/or second attachment member to thereby fix relative valve stem rotational movement. In an example, the valve stem surface feature is a flat surface that registers with a flat surface of the second attachment member inside diameter.
Abstract:
Ein Druckbehälter zur Aufnahme mindestens eines Fluidmediums, mit einem ersten Mantel (1) und einem den ersten Mantel (1) zumindest teilweise umfassenden zweiten Mantel (3), wobei der erste Mantel (1) zumindest an seinem einen Ende ein Kragenteil (5) aufweist, das einen Festlegekörper (15) umfasst, der eine Öffnung (13) für die Medienzu- und -abfuhr bildet, ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass innerhalb des Behälters ein die Öffnung (13) umgebender Stützkörper (19) in Form eines geteilten Ringes vorgesehen ist, der eine an die gewölbte Form der sich an das Kragenteil (5) anschließenden Innenseite des ersten Mantels (1) angepasste Anlagefläche (39) aufweist, die durch eine Andrückeinrichtung (43, 45) an den ersten Mantel (1) anpressbar ist.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a hydraulic accumulator, especially a bladder accumulator, comprising an accumulator housing (10), a separation element disposed therein that separates within the accumulator housing a gas chamber (16) adjoining a inlet (14) on the gas side from a fluid chamber (18) adjoining an inlet (20) on the fluid side. Said inlet on the fluid side has a fluid connecting neck (22) which comprises a valve support (40) disposed in said neck and having fluid openings (42), and a disk-shaped valve body (32) that tapers towards the valve shaft (46) on its side facing the valve support (40). Said valve shaft can be pretensioned via a force accumulator (62) into the open position in which it releases the fluid opening, and can be displaced into its closed position by a displacement of the separation element (12), and projects into the fluid chamber (18) in the open position. The valve body (32) is an integral, especially one-piece component of the valve support (40) that is guided along its outer periphery (56) within the connecting neck (22) so as to be displaceable therein, thereby creating a hydraulic accumulator that is comparatively simple and inexpensive in production.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an accumulator comprising a cylindrical shell including a cylindrical portion, a partitioning member for partitioning the interior of the shell into a hydraulic chamber and a gas chamber, and a port including a hydraulic fluid flow path for communicating the exterior of the shell and the hydraulic chamber. The variation of the pressure of a hydraulic fluid flowing into the hydraulic chamber is accommodated by expansion and compression of a gas in the gas chamber according to expansion and contraction of the partitioning member. The port is approximately airtightly inserted into the cylindrical portion of the shell, and is welded to an outer circumference of the cylindrical portion by means of welding.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a pressure vessel for receiving at least one fluid medium, and comprising a first shell (1) and a second shell (3) that at least partially encompasses said first shell (1), the first shell (1) having, at least at one of its ends, a collar portion (5) which comprises a securing element (15) that forms an opening (13) for supplying and discharging the medium. The vessel is characterised in that a support element (19), which is in the form of a split ring and surrounds said opening (13), is provided inside the container and has a contact surface (39) adapted to the curved shape of the first shell (1) inner side which is attached to the collar portion (5), said contact surface being able to be pressed onto the first shell (1) using a pressing device (43, 45).
