  • Patent number: 4863055
    Abstract: A baffle arrangement for pressurized or non-pressurized liquid cargo transport vessels includes a plurality of baffle members supported within the vessel at or slightly below the upper level of the liquid within the vessel to reduce sloshing of the liquid during vessel movement. Individual baffle members are supported at their ends by transverse support members which in turn are secured to brackets welded to the inner walls of the vessel. The baffle arrangement separates the vessel into a lower liquid carrying chamber and an upper substantially empty chamber. By reducing the sloshing effect the stability of the vehicle carrying the vessel will be increased substantially.
