Double-skin, low-profile, environmental, tote tank system

[Category : - DESIGN PATENTS]
[Viewed 1006 times]

A stainless steel, double-skin, industrial, tote tank ( 100 ) for transporting dangerous liquids between a dock and an off-shore platform having inner and out tank "skins," with the opposing walls gapped, except for the flatly engaged, bottom walls. A low-profile 550 gallon tank design has about a four foot height, six foot length and four foot width, allowing a worker to easily view and work with a liquid level gauge and the top fill openings while merely standing next to the tank. The tank top includes a high wall around all of the operative, top elements, confining any spilled liquid, with a typically closed drain line located in the top wall extending to the side for emptying of the spilled liquid. A protectively enclosed, discharge valve line having a bottom drip pan is included at the sloped tank bottom completely within the tank wall confines with a lock-able access door.

Financial information

I developed this safety tank at the request of a major oil/chemical company some years back. The Patent was held in litigation for a time. and I am now the sole owner. A prototype was built in order to pas DOT drop testing with a tank manufacturing company. It was designed to carry aviation fuel and other hazardous chemicals both offshore and inshore. I have moved on to a new adventure in my life and am interested in selling the patent or license with royalties.
This was a little ahead of its time when developed but I believe with the recent focus on environmental safety it may be a good time to put out feelers in the market..
I am traveling at the moment and will add pictures as soon as I get home.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions. .
