  • Patent number: 7753092
    Abstract: A device for feeding one or more substances thixotroping a liquid to a container for storing said liquid, is characterized in that the device comprises a tank containing thixotroping substances, a feeding means for transportation of the thixotroping substances from the tank into the container which contains the liquid, and a pressure generating means for generating a pressure gradients in the thixotroping substances within the feeding means which is directed from the tank to the container. By means of the device according to the invention thixotroping substances can be fed into fluid within the container, in order to prevent discharging and leakage respectively under certain defined circumstances.

  • Patent number: 7753089
    Abstract: A tank (10) for storing a liquid with a device (11, 12) for feeding one or more substances thixotroping the liquid to the liquid in the tank (10) is characterised in that the device (11, 12) is designed so that it feeds the thixotroping substance or substances to the liquid in the tank (10) as a result of a signal from a signal transmitter, so that the liquid completely thixotropes, at least in a closed outer layer inside the tank (10) that cannot be penetrated by a residue of the liquid, not thixotroped if necessary. This ensures that by simple means the liquid present in the tank (10) is pretended from being discharged or from escaping under certain defined conditions, particularly in emergency situations.

  • Publication number: 20100086723
    Abstract: A stone-glass element having at least one stone plate (2) and a supporting plate (1), comprising at least one glass pane which is bonded “large area” to said stone plate by means of a transparent or opaque cast resin layer (4), with the surface of the stone plate opposite of the supporting plate being provided with a moisture-repellant cover layer (7) or a cover plate (3), is characterized in that the stone plate comprises a capillary cut (15) in parallel to at least one side edge being filled with a sealing compound which prevents a moisture diffusion (6) towards the stone plate's (2) interior. It is thus possible to prevent by simple means moisture from diffusing into the stone's interior in case of a stone-glass element of the above-mentioned type to preclude heavy consequential damage from happening. In the process a visual or esthetical impairment, respectively, of the element is to be minimal, if possible, and the technical expense is to preclude considerable cost increases.
