Abstract

A gas storage tank is described comprising at least one bellows 20 confined within a casing 22 and preloaded to extend in length when the gas pressure within the bellows 20 exceeds a predetermined value above the ambient pressure. The casing 22 has diverging sides 24 and is closed off by a moveable end wall assembly 26 held against the extending bellows 20 by a compression spring 28, and the end wall assembly 26 has an adjustable size matching the increasing opening of the diverging sides 24 as the wall 26 moves along the casing 22. The gas storage tank may be installed on a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine with air being blown into the bellows by an air charger and stored within the bellows at a constant pressure until it is expelled from the bellows and supplied to the engine for boosting the engine.
