The present invention provides a method for producing a pressure tank for holding a pressurized fluid, comprising the steps of providing a shaped body; arranging one or more elements of a textile sheet material of reinforcing fibers on the shaped body; impregnating the reinforcing fibers, before or after the arrangement of the element or elements on the shaped body, with a thermosetting or thermoplastic resin; and curing the resin to form a composite fiber material surrounding the shaped body. The invention also provides a pressure tank for holding a pressurized fluid, comprising a hollow body which defines a storage space for the fluid, and a composite fiber material surrounding the hollow body which comprises one or more elements of a textile sheet material. The invention further provides a pressure tank group comprising a plurality of such pressure tanks. |
