Abstract
812,002. Liquid oxygen revaporizors. ARO EQUIPMENT CORPORATION. Oct. 4, 1955, No. 28236/65. Class 8(2). A liquid oxygen convertor comprises an insulated container 10 having a bottom outlet 12 leading to an evaporating coil 18 which in turn leads to an automatic pressure-closing valve 22, a chamber 24 of which discharges into a valved-gas supply line 28, and a chamber 26 discharges through a line 36 and a combined vent and build-up valve 38 back to the container 10 at the top thereof. During charging of the container 10 with liquid oxygen through a valve 14 in line 12 the gas space G is vented to atmosphere through a line 37 and valve 38 which is afterwards moved to the alternative position where it connects lines 36 and 37 thereby providing pressure build up in the space G and forces liquid oxygen past a check valve 16 and through the coil 18, the resulting vapour passing to the supply line 28. Chambers 24, 26 of the valve 22 which are in open communication only when pressure is being built up have pressure relief valves 30, 32 connected to a vent line 34. In a modification the bottom outlet is connected to two evaporating coils in parallel, one for the gas supply line and the other comprising upper and lower sections for providing the pressure build-up. In both constructions the container 10 is doublewalled and of stainless steel having a carbon content of less than À08 per cent., the space between the walls being evacuated.
