Abstract: A boss for a pressure tank for storing gas in a gas-powered vehicle. The boss is configured for attachment to a wall of the pressure tank enclosing a cavity for storing the gas. The wall has a reinforcement layer made of fiber-reinforced plastic and an inner liner for sealing. The boss has an external thread, which can be connected to a mating internal thread of the liner. There is also described a pressure tank with two such bosses.

Abstract: A pressure tank for storing gas, for mounting in a gas-operated vehicle. The pressure tank has a rotationally symmetrical, elongate shape which is cylindrical in the central region and is closed at both ends by curved polar caps, and a wall which surrounds a hollow space for storing the gas. At each of the polar caps, the pressure tank has a metallic connection piece, a so-called boss. The wall has a reinforcing layer made from fiber-reinforced plastic and an inner liner for sealing purposes. For sealing purposes, a bush is connected to the boss. A pressure ring and a spring element are configured in such a way that the spring element is supported on the bush and presses the pressure ring against the liner and, as a result, presses the liner in a region against the boss.
