20140048532 | WATER STORAGE TANK - A water storage tank is formed by a plurality of curved wall sections adapted to be secured together to form a circular tank. A ground mat is placed on the ground and extends outwardly of the tank wall. A plurality of hold down members are placed at the inside juncture of the tank wall and ground mat. A flooring sheet overlaps the ground mat and extends up and over the side wall of the tank and is clamped to an upper portion of the wall. A tubular fitting extends through a lower portion of the side wall to provide an inlet and outlet for water. | 02-20-2014 |
20140048533 | HYDRAULIC HOLD DOWN FOR A WATER STORAGE TANK - A hydraulic hold down has horizontal and vertical extending portions and a curved section connecting the two. The hold down is adapted to be placed at the juncture of a floor mat and circular side wall of a water storage tank to keep the floor mat in place and to reinforce the side wall. The hold down has a curvature that conforms to the curvature of the circular sidewall of the water storage tank. | 02-20-2014 |
20140048539 | CLAMP FOR A WATER STORAGE TANK - A clamp for securing a flexible sheet to the upper portion of a wall of a water tank includes a pair of thin, flexible strips spaced apart by a plurality of spacers near a top portion of the strips. At least one rod or threaded bolt extends through holes provided in the strips below the spacers. Nuts carried by the rod or bolt can be moved inwardly so as to deflect the flexible sheets inwardly thereby clamping the flexible sheet between the clamp and the tank wall. | 02-20-2014 |
20140238696 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DRILLING AND SERVICING SUBTERRANEAN WELLS WITH ROTATING COILED TUBING - A system is provided for drilling and/or servicing a well bore using continuous lengths of coiled tubing in which a turntable assembly rotates a coiled tubing reel assembly and a counter balance system about the well bore such that the coiled tubing is rotated while in the wellbore. A coiled tubing injector may be provided on a separate turntable assembly or on the same turntable assembly as the reel assembly. A swivel support assembly may be provided for managing operation lines associated with the system. | 08-28-2014 |
20150076141 | LIQUID STORAGE TANK FORMED OF A PLURALITY OF PANELS - A fluid storage tank is formed by a plurality of wall panels positioned on top of a floor mat. Each wall panel includes a curved sheet of a non-metal material, for example fiberglass, first and second side frame members and a plurality of reinforcing strips that extend between the side frame members. The reinforcing strips are secured to the side frame members. The panels include complimentary fastening members that allow the curved side panels to be connected end to end so as to form a circular fluid storage tank in conjunction with a floor mat. | 03-19-2015 |
