MELTING SAFETY DEVICE FOR A HYDROPNEUMATIC ACCUMULATOR GAS SYSTEM

摘要

A melting safety device for discharging gas from the gas system of a hydropneumatic pressure reservoir or accumulator has a blocking element of a material which melts when exposed to an undue temperature increase. A normally closed valve can be opened by a control member which is prebiased for controlled movement by the force of a power drive. The blocking element is a mechanical blocking member which blocks the controlled movement of the control member prior to its melting, but permits the controlled movement of the control member upon melting.
