CONTENITORE PER LIQUIDI, IN PARTICOLARE SERBATOIO PER OLIO, CON MEZZI PER LO SFIATAMENTO DEL CONTENITORE, TENENDO CONTO DI POSIZIONI E CONDIZIONI DI VOLO ESTREMI

摘要

A liquid reservoir, such as an oil tank, for use in missiles or aircraft which are subjected to extreme flight attitudes. The reservoir has a wall rotationally symmetrical about the longitudinal axis of the reservoir, and the liquid content of the reservoir is rotated about the longitudinal axis to provide, by centrifugal force, a central space within the reservoir which is essentially free of liquid. Air is vented from the reservoir through a fixed vent located within the central space created when the liquid content is rotated.
