Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of accumulators, in particular to a protective device for accumulators. Background Art

[0002] The accumulator is an energy storage device in the hydraulic and pneumatic system. It converts the energy in the system into compression energy or potential energy and stores it at the right time.
