Abstract: The tank mounting structure includes a plurality of tanks, a frame on which the plurality of tanks are mounted in a state of being aligned in the width direction, and a plurality of mounting structures that are fixed to both end portions of the frame in the axial direction and support each tank. The tank has a first neck arranged on one side in the axial direction and a second neck arranged on the other side. The first neck is fixed to the frame via the first mounting structure. The second neck is supported by the frame via a second mounting structure and is movable in the axial direction by expansion or contraction of the tank. The first necks of adjacent tanks are alternately fixed to the end portions of the frame in the axial direction.

Abstract: A system for storing air at high pressure underground or underwater includes a plurality of arrays of air tanks, each tank configured to store compressed air at a pressure of at least 40 bar. A piping system connects between an outlet of each air tank, the piping system further including at least one central port for delivering compressed air to and from a respective array. A storage receptacle surrounds the arrays and piping system, protecting the arrays and piping system from an external environment, and thermally insulating the arrays and piping system. A liquid bath is arranged within the storage receptacle. A heat exchanger is configured to maintain a temperature of the liquid bath substantially constant. The storage receptacle may be comprised of plastic pieces welded together in a modular fashion. Each piece may be a cylindrical tube configured to receive therein one or more of the arrays.

Abstract: A mobile storage apparatus for containers is provided. The apparatus provides a unique support assembly for holding a container. The assembly includes a latch mechanism that allows a clamp of cylinder to be moved from a closed position to an open position which creates clearance around a neck of cylinder to allow it to rotate without falling out of clamp. The other end of apparatus is structurally configured with a release plunger that can be retracted to allow rotation of cylinder along said other end. Rotatable wheels on a user side with a braking mechanism along a handle and a foot ledge allow improved maneuverability and stability.
