Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, based on the size of the fuel container and its contour or on the number of partial columns formed in the fuel container, it is often necessary to arrange a plurality of support elements configured as tension rods inside the fuel container, which in turn increases the shear strength of the container significantly. increase, so that it cannot be easily ensured that the support element fails at the predetermined position under load

Embodiment Construction

[0039] figure 1 is a partial sectional view of only a part of a fuel container 1 made of thermoplastic material, between the upper base body 2 and the lower base body 3 of which a support element 4 is arranged. The support element 4 is substantially cylindrically configured and extends between the inner wall 6 of the lower base body 3 and the inner wall 6 of the upper base body 2 .

[0040] As will be described further below, the support elements 4 are welded at the end sides in various cases to the respective walls 6 of the upper base body 2 and the lower base body 3, figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the upper base body 2 is provided with a dome-shaped recess 5 .

[0041] The wall 6 of the fuel container 1 consists, for example, of a multilayer coextruded profile of thermoplastic material based on HDPE and may also comprise, for example, a barrier layer for hydrocarbons.

[0042]The support element 4 is formed, at least in the region of the end-side welding surface 7...

Abstract

The invention relates to a fuel container (1) of thermoplastic plastics material having an upper base (2) and a lower base (3) which are supported against each other by means of at least one column-like support element (4), wherein the support element (4) is connected in a positive-locking manner and / or materially engaging manner to a wall (6) of the upper base on the one hand and to a wall (6) of the lower base on the other hand in such a manner that it can absorb tensile forces and / or pressure forces, wherein the support element (4) is constructed in several pieces and the support element is divided longitudinally and comprises at least two segments (8) which complement each other in cross-section and which form a common support face at the end side.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel container of thermoplastic material having an upper base body and a lower base body mutually supported by at least one cylindrical support element, wherein the support element is positively and / or materially bonded on the one hand Connected to the wall of the upper base and on the other hand to the wall of the lower base so that it can absorb the tension caused by the internal pressure of the container, wherein the support element is constructed in several parts. Background technique [0002] A fuel container of the type described above is known, for example, from DE 10 2009 036 911 A1. This concerns a propellant container comprising two shells, operated under overpressure and reinforced by inner columns, so that when the two shells are joined together, a connection with tensile strength is created. To this end, the post comprises a first part and a second part connected to a respective housing, one part being provided ...
