ABSTRACT:
A method of making a tank out of blown, thermoformed, or rotomolded thermoplastic material, the method comprising the following steps:making a portion in relief on the inside of the tank, said portion in relief enabling an attachment to be mounted inside the tank and defining a permanent housing for receiving at least a portion of said attachment, the portion in relief being made:either by implementing the following steps:a) placing at least one insert inside an enclosure;b) inserting the material that is to form the wall of the tank inside the enclosure; andc) forming the wall of the tank by blowing, thermoforming, or rotomolding, the insert being positioned inside the enclosure in such a manner that while the wall is being formed, it covers the insert at least in part, the insert also being of a shape that is selected in such a manner that said wall, by taking on at least part of the shape of the insert, constitutes said portion in relief;or else by mounting a mounting member on the wall of the tank.
