Abstract:
A safety cabinet for storing flammable liquids is provided with a flame arresting vent. The flame arresting vent or “flame arrestor” allows flammable vapors inside the cabinet to leave the cabinet's interior but prevents flame from flowing into the cabinet's interior from outside the cabinet.

Claim (Index 1):
A flame arrestor for a safety cabinet, the flame arrestor comprising:\n a hollow tube having first and second opposing ends; a stack of wire mesh layers in the hollow tube, the stack of wire mesh layers comprising: a first end and an opposing second end; a first wire mesh layer proximate the first end of the stack of metal wire mesh layers; a second wire mesh layer proximate the opposing second end of the stack of wire mesh layers; and an intermediate metal wire mesh layer between the first and second wire mesh layers; wherein the metal wire mesh layers are substantially planar and substantially parallel to each other; wherein the metal wire mesh layers abut each other in the hollow tube; wherein the metal wire mesh layers are configured to allow gas molecules to pass through the stack of metal wire mesh layers and pass through the hollow tube when the wire mesh layers are heated but do not form a seal in the hollow tube that will block the hollow tube when the stack of metal wire mesh layers absorb heat.
