Abstract: A portable air tank having a safety relief venting assembly formed in the bottom of the tank. The safety relief vent includes a tubular relief frame welded to the exterior of the tank about a relief hole punched in the tank's bottom near one end thereof. The tubular relief frame includes a channel therethrough which aligns with, and surrounds, the hole punched in the bottom of the tank. The legs of the tank are formed to maintain the tank in an angled relation, with respect to a horizontal plane, to ensure that condensation within the tank collects at the relief hole. The venting assembly includes a cup-shaped plug inserted into the relief frame. A concave surface of the cup-shaped plug is directed upward toward the interior of the tank to ensure that condensation collects within the cup. The cup-shaped plug is formed with a thickness substantially half that of the tank's outer wall to ensure that the plug will corrode and fail before any other portion of the tank wall is compromised. When the plug fails, air pressure within the tank is discharged through the relief frame and downward against the floor to minimize the danger to the user.

Abstract: A carrier for transporting a pressurized container in the bed of a pickup truck is provided. The carrier is made up of a cradle and a positionable retaining ring attached to a support frame. The frame includes two substantially flat frame support members having angled flanges that form feet. The feet are adapted to overhang the end of the bed of the pickup truck in which the carrier is placed. When a tailgate of the pickup truck is closed, the feet are engaged such that the carrier is secured in place in the bed of the pickup truck and prevented from sliding in any direction during transport. The retaining ring is supported on telescoping rod members to be slidably adjustable to facilitate various sized containers. Optionally, the cradle is provided with a cargo lash that may be racheted to tightly secure the container to the carrier.

Abstract: A cryogenic reservoir (1) comprising an internal reservoir (2) and an external reservoir (5) with vacuum insulation between them, is provided with a plug-valve (17) in a conduit (12) passing through the external reservoir (5). This plug valve (17) incorporates the trapping agent of the desorption gases, as a getter. In the case of accidental overpressure in the intermediate vacuum space, due to an escape of fluid from the internal reservoir (2), the "getter" is ejected to a distance with the plug valve (17), which avoids any dangerous reaction between the getter and the cryogenic fluid, which can for example be oxygen.

Abstract: An alternative fuel system and compressed natural gas (CNG) conversion kit, primarily for smaller size industrial vehicles, such as compact loaders and lift trucks restricted in the space available in the engine compartment for the components of a CNG system where the vehicle was initially engineered for other fuel systems such as gasoline liquid petroleum gas (LPG) or diesel fuel having substantially fewer parts and components and less complex systems. A CNG tank is mounted horizontally outside of the engine compartment and a high pressure line connects from the tank to a regulator mounted inside the engine compartment for decompressing the gas to a pressure suitable for mixing with air in the carburetor of the engine. The CNG system has a refilling receptacle with an electrical interlock to the ignition preventing accidental drive-away. Within the engine compartment, a mounting arrangement takes advantage of limited space and more efficiently transmits heat from the engine cooling system to counteract the refrigeration effect due to gas decompression in the components of the system. The arrangement outside the engine compartment utilizes guarding structures to protect the high pressure lines, valves, and fittings from damage, including taking advantage of the existing vehicle structure to prevent damage from hazards in the workplace during normal operation of the vehicle.

A tank storing gaseous fuel at a high pressure is connected to the fuel injector via fluid flow conduits. An annular recess is formed on at least one location on the side wall of the tank. Annular shoulders are disposed on opposite sides of the recess and extend outward above the side wall of the tank. A mounting bracket is mounted in the recess surrounding the tank and is attachable to the vehicle to mount the tank to the vehicle.
