Claims15
A protective device for a pressurized gas tank, comprising:
- a shell designed to absorb energy in response to an impact;
- and
- a mechanical joining interface to mechanically join the shell to the pressurized gas tank, and wherein the shell is integral with the mechanical joining interface, and wherein the shell is made of a same part as, bonded to, or over-molded with the mechanical joining interface.
A protective device for a pressurized gas tank, comprising:
- a shell designed to absorb energy in response to an impact;
- a mechanical joining interface to mechanically join the shell to the pressurized gas tank;
- and
- wherein the pressurized gas tank comprises a base that is rotationally symmetrical, and the mechanical joining interface is designed to be assembled with the base, wherein the base comprises an external crown and wherein the mechanical joining interface comprises an elastic ring, capable of protruding beyond the external crown.
