Cylinders may be attached to a bench top, individually to the wall, placed in a holding cage, or have a non-tip base attached. The original translation referred to a bench top as a “mobile trolley” – does a bench top really mean that? This post was last edited by ludinggi on 2009-4-15 22:19]
I think this translation is very inappropriate. \"Bench\" refers to a workbench in a workshop or a testing table in a laboratory; therefore, \"bench top\" should mean the surface of the workbench. As for \"non-tip\" in \"non-tip base\", I believe it means there is no tilt, that is, it is vertical and perpendicular to the ground, but this meaning is not reflected in the original translator’s version

Bench Top Press: a desktop-type hot press. It’s better to translate “Bench Top” as “work platform”. Tip: the sharp end; non-tip: the non-sharp end – so is that the bottom? It makes sense to translate “non-tip base” as “base”
Cylinders may be attached to a bench top, individually to the wall, placed in a holding cage, or have a non-tip base attached. Following everyone’s suggestions, the translation has been revised to: Gas cylinders can be fixed to a work platform (which is generally very stable), or fixed separately to the wall, stored in a cylinder cage, or connected to objects that are not prone to tipping over.
There are a few points that the original poster needs to clarify: 1. Bench top refers to an experimental table/workbench (depending on whether the gas cylinders are used for analysis or welding/cutting). 2. Does “individually to the wall” modify the word “attached” mentioned earlier? Otherwise, there will be one less verb. 3. non-tip base Non-inclined base/foundation?
This is from the gas cylinder training materials; the information isn’t very comprehensive. 1. Bench top refers to an experimental table/workbench; it can be the workbench in a repair shop where cutting is carried out, and it could also refer to gas cylinders used for laboratory analysis. 2. individually to the wall – I think this modifies the word attached mentioned earlier. 3. non-tip base – a non-inclined base/foundation, I think so.
Cylinders may be attached to a bench top, individually to the wall, placed in a holding cage, or have a non-tip base attached. How about this translation: Gas cylinders can be fixed to a work platform, or hung on the wall separately, stored in a cylinder cage, or equipped with a base that prevents them from tipping over.

It means a BENCH-TOP working platform.
