The gasholder piston moves up and down the inside of the shell as gas enters and exits the gasholder. The weight of the piston (less the weight of the level weights) produces the pressure at which the gasholder will operate. The piston is designed to apply an equally distributed weight to ensure that the piston remains level at all times.
A gas holder or gasholder, also known as a gasometer, is a large container in which natural gas or town gas (coal gas or formerly also water gas) is stored near atmospheric pressure at ambient temperatures. The volume of the container follows the quantity of stored gas, with pressure coming from the weight of a movable cap.
A pallet is a similar appearing group of cylinders on a lifting frame with no functional connections. The maximum combined cylinder volume for a bundle is 3000 litres for non-toxic gases and 1000 litres for toxic gases. Gas bundles are specified by ISO 10961:2019 Gas cylinders — Cylinder bundles — Design, manufacture, testing and inspection.
A weight-distributing hitch is a "load leveling" hitch. It is a hitch setup mounted on the tow vehicle that uses spring bars and chains under tension to distribute part of the trailer's hitch weight from the towing vehicle's rear axle to the towing vehicle's front axle and to the trailer's axle(s). It can help reduce trailer sway and hop.

For this reason weight distribution varies with the vehicle's intended usage. For example, a drag car maximizes traction at the rear axle while countering the reactionary pitch-up torque. It generates this counter-torque by placing a small amount of counterweight at a great distance forward of the rear axle.
She notes that the diet is effective for not only brain health but weight loss as well because “nutrient-dense and fiber-rich foods help promote satiety and healthy weight.” Atlantic diet
Its top section had a diameter of 100 feet (30 m) and a height of 22 feet (6.7 m). The lower section of the telescoping lift had a diameter of 101 feet, 6 inches, and a height of 22 feet (6.7 m). Its storage capacity was 333,000 cubic feet (9,400 m 3) of gas. The gasholder's weight provided pressure for the distribution of gas in the supply mains.
