Abstract

A pressure accumulator includes a membrane ( 4 ) forming a movable separating element between media spaces ( 6, 8 ) and made of contiguous layers ( 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 ) of different materials. At least one layer of a basic structure ( 16, 20 ) has filaments. A gas-tight impregnation ( 24 ) is disposed between layers ( 18 ) made of an elastomer.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A pressure accumulator, comprising:
a housing having first and second media spaces; and
a movable separating element in said housing located between and separating said first and second media spaces, said separating element having contiguous layers of different materials, said layers including a first layer of a base structure having filaments and a gastight impregnation coating, said first layer being disposed between second and third layers of an elastomer, said separating element including a fourth layer of a filament-containing, impregnated structure and a fifth layer of an elastomer between said first layer and said fourth layer.

2. A pressure accumulator according to claim 1 wherein
said filaments of said base structure are at least one of a textile, a knitted fabric or a non-woven fabric.

3. A pressure accumulator according to claim 1 wherein said first layer comprises a synthetic fabric.

4. A pressure accumulator according to claim 3 wherein said synthetic fabric is made of polyamide.

5. A pressure accumulator according to claim 1 wherein
said separating element comprises a membrane having in succession said second layer, said first layer, said third layer, said fourth layer and said fifth layer, said second layer, said third layer and said fifth layer being made of nitrile rubber.

6. A pressure accumulator according to claim 1 wherein
said gastight impregnated coating is provided on both sides of said first layer between said first layer and said second and third layers and comprises polyvinyl acetate.

7. A pressure accumulator according to claim 1 wherein
said separating element comprises a barrier layer of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer between said first layer and at least one of said second layer or said third layer.

8. A pressure accumulator, comprising:
a housing having first and second media spaces; and
a movable separating membrane including in succession a layer of nitrile rubber, an adhesive coating, a barrier layer of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, an impregnated layer of polyvinyl acetate, a base structure having filaments, an impregnated layer of polyvinyl acetate, a barrier layer of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, an adhesive coating, a barrier layer of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, an impregnated layer of polyvinyl acetate, a base structure having filaments, an impregnated layer of polyvinyl acetate, a barrier layer of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, an adhesive coating and a layer of nitrile rubber.
