Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a pressure accumulator (1), in particular for accumulating hydrogen in motor vehicles, wherein first of all an inner liner (3) of the pressure reservoir (1) is produced, preferably by means of a plastic blow molding process, wherein subsequently the inner liner (3) is provided, preferably braided, on the outside with a multi-ply reinforcing layer (9) including reinforcement fibers (8), and wherein the reinforcing layer (9) is then impregnated with a resin, preferably an epoxy resin, which, after curing, fixes the position of the reinforcement fibers (8) in the reinforcing layer (9). According to the invention the impregnation takes place from the contact region (K) of the outer surface of the inner liner (3) with the reinforcing layer (9) to the outer region of the reinforcing layer (9).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pressure container for storing gases or liquids under pressures above 200 bar, comprising an elongate storage element having at least one rotationally symmetrical, preferably conical and/or cylindrical, central portion, a plurality (N) or number (N) of individual layers (n=1 to N) which each have at least one braided or wound reinforcing fibre, preferably at least two braided or wound reinforcing fibres, wherein the individual layers (n=1 to N) lie over one another in a local sequence along a perpendicular (S) to the axis of rotation of the central portion, and wherein an inner starting layer (n=1) surrounds a hollow body arranged within the storage element or forms said hollow body, and wherein an end layer (n=N) arranged above the starting layer (n=1) is provided, and wherein the reinforcing fibre or the reinforcing fibres in each of the individual layers (n=1 to N) has or have a layer-dependent fibre angle ?n relative to the axis of rotation projected into the respective

Abstract: A method of eliminating an ectoparasite infestation is disclosed that may include steps of defining a target area on an animal having an ectoparasite infestation, heating a volume of air to a temperature to form heated air, applying the heated air to the target area with an airflow such that the heated air impinges directly on substantially all ectoparasites located within the target area, and maintaining the heated air at the target area for a period of time sufficient to affect an ectoparasite mortality rate of at least 50%.
