    摘要: A container system for pressurized fluid includes a pressure vessel (40) formed from a plurality of polymeric hollow chambers (50) having either en ellipsoidal or spherical shape and interconnected by a plurality of relatively narrow conduit sections (52) disposed between consecutive ones of the chambers. The pressure vessel includes a reinforcing filament (46) wrapped around the interconnected chambers and interconnecting conduit sections to limit radial expansion of the chambers and conduit sections when filled with a fluid under pressure. The container system further includes a fluid transfer control system (76) attached to the pressure vessel for controlling fluid flow into and out of the pressure vessel.

    摘要: A first strand (450) of interconnected hollow polymeric chambers (C) is connected to a second strand (466) of interconnected hollow polymeric chambers (C). A connecting portion (454) of the first strand has an outer surface contour (462) conforming to a portion of the inner surface of a chamber (472). A partial chamber (468) is formed on the end of the second strand, the partial chamber having an inner surface (472) that conforms to the outer surface (462) of the connecting portion. The connecting portion is inserted into the partial chamber and the two strands are held together by adhesive.

    摘要: A fluid transfer control valve (76) is connected to a pressure vessel formed from a plurality of hollow, polymeric chambers (50) interconnected by polymeric conduit sections (44) disposed between adjacent ones of the chambers. The valve includes a valve body and a pressure relief mechanism (295) attached to the body. The pressure relief mechanism (295) is operative to release pressure from the pressure vessel when the pressure within the vessel exceeds a predetermined maximum pressure. In a preferred embodiment, the relief mechanism comprises a rupture disk (321). The pressure relief valve may also include a filter element disposed along a fluid flow path defined within the valve body and/or a restrictive flow path for reducing the pressure of fluid flowing through the valve body.

    摘要: A wearable storage system (10) for pressurized fluid includes a pressure vessel (40) formed from a plurality of polymeric hollow chambers (50) having either an ellipsoidal or spherical shape and interconnected by a plurality of relatively narrow conduit sections (52, 56) disposed between consecutive ones of the chambers. The pressure vessel includes a reinforcing filament (46) wrapped around the interconnected chambers and interconnecting conduit sections to limit radial expansion of the chambers and conduit sections when filled with a fluid under pressure. The container system further includes a fluid transfer control system (76) attached to the pressure vessel for controlling fluid flow into and out of the pressure vessel. A gas delivery mechanism for delivering gas stored in the pressure vessel to the patient in a controlled manner is connected to the fluid transfer control system. The pressure vessel and the fluid transfer control system are incorporated into a wearable garment to provide an ambulatory supply of gas for the patient.
