Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a fibre-reinforced pressure vessel having fibre-reinforced polar caps as well as a corresponding pressure vessel having these polar caps. Therein, the method comprises the steps of applying fibre composite material onto a provided winding body having the shape of the polar caps at at least one of the ends, using a winding process; of intermediately curing the fibre composite material for dimensional stabilisation, said fibre composite material, however, subsequently still remaining chemically active for later cross-linking; of severing the fibre composite material for producing a polar cap reinforcing layer which is detached from the winding body and placed onto a liner underlay of the pressure vessel. Subsequently, the polar cap reinforcing layer is cross-linked with the fibre composite material of the pressure vessel for producing the pressure vessel reinforcing layer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure vessel with reinforced pole caps and a method for producing such a pressure vessel, which comprises an inner vessel of a cylinder-shaped central part and two dome-shaped pole caps closing the central part on both sides and an outer layer wound on the inner vessel for the reinforcement of the inner vessel against a pressure load, wherein the outer layer comprises at least one pole cap reinforcement layer and a pressure vessel reinforcement layer of fiber composite material, wherein the pole cap reinforcement layer at least partially covers the pole caps and the pressure vessel reinforcement layer covers the pole caps and the central part and a contour-stable preform is arranged as the pole cap reinforcement layer on at least one of the pole caps, preferably on both pole caps.

Abstract: A pole cap is presented made of a plastic material for the pressure-tight closure of a pressure vessel. The pole cap comprises an inner side for the later closure of the pressure vessel, an outer side for the superwinding with a fiber composite material after closure of the pressure vessel and a neck-shaped open duct, which protrudes outwardly from the outer side and has an inner contour, each made of plastic material, and comprises a pressure port element connected to the duct for the closure of the duct, wherein the pressure port element comprises a seal cone made of metal with a first section protruding outwardly through the duct and a second section tapering at least in the area of the duct in a cone-shaped manner in the direction of the first section.

Abstract: A braiding bobbin includes a shaft and a spool from which a fiber thread can be drawn off through a thread guide mounted to rotate on the shaft. At least one torsion spring joins the shaft and the spool to each other. The spool is rotatable in a draw-off direction against the spring force and in an opposite, backwinding direction by the spring force of the torsion spring. A brake having an adjustable braking torque brakes rotation of the shaft in the draw-off direction.
