Abstract
A pressure drop responsive gas tank includes: a tank main body inside a container, filled with a non-combustible gas, and having a discharge passage configured to discharge the non-combustible gas; and an opening device mounted on the discharge passage and configured to open the discharge passage when an internal pressure of the container is lower than an atmospheric pressure so that the non-combustible gas is discharged from the tank main body.
Claims20
A pressure drop responsive gas tank comprising:
- a tank main body inside a container, filled with a non-combustible gas, and having a discharge passage configured to discharge the non-combustible gas;
- and
- an opening device mounted on the discharge passage and configured to open the discharge passage when an internal pressure of the container is lower than an atmospheric pressure so that the non-combustible gas is discharged from the tank main body.
A gas tank opening device mounted on a tank main body that accommodates a non-combustible gas, provides a discharge passage of the non-combustible gas, and is installed inside a container,
- wherein the gas tank opening device has a passage opening part configured to open the discharge passage when an internal pressure of the container decreases to discharge the non-combustible gas from the tank main body.
A battery container comprising:
- a container accommodating a battery and having a door at one side thereof;
- a tank main body inside the container, filled with a non-combustible gas, having a discharge passage, and configured to be operated when a pressure drops due to a fire inside the container to discharge the non-combustible gas from inside the tank main body into the container;
- and
- an opening device mounted on the discharge passage and configured to open the discharge passage when an internal pressure of the container is lower than an atmospheric pressure so that the non-combustible gas is discharged outside the tank main body.
