<p>A self-contained pressure accumulator (10) for pressure fluid systems comprising a vessel (14) constructed of a flexible material defining an internal cavity adapted to receive and maintain a volume of pressurized gas, whereby the pressurized vessel (14) is placed in the fluid system such that the pressure within the cavity is operative in directions generally opposite the directions provided by the pressure of fluid of the system and cavity volume varies as a function of fluid pressure variation within the fluid system. The vessel may contain stabilizing ribs (22) to insure a relatively equal stress distribution along the vessel walls (20).</p> |
