Fuel transfer station and refillable fuel cell for fuel transfer station
A fuel transfer station may provide for the refilling of fuel canisters providing fuel to combustion powered equipment. The fuel transfer station may include a base, a frame coupled to the base, a first connection port and a second connection port provided in the base, and fluid flow lines connecting the first connection port and the second connection port. A supply tank may be supported by the frame and detachably connected to the first connection port. A fuel canister to be refilled may be detachably connected to the second connection port. Fuel contained in the supply tank may be selectively supplied to the fuel canister through the fluid flow lines in response to a pressure gradient drawing the fuel into the fuel canister.
High pressure tank device and method of detecting leakage in high pressure tank device
A high pressure tank device includes a high pressure tank configured to supply/discharge a fluid through a supply/discharge channel, a first storage part, a leakage detection sensor provided in the first storage part for detecting leakage of the fluid, and a second storage part. The high pressure tank includes a resin liner, a reinforcement layer which covers an outer surface of the liner, and a cap having a supply/discharge hole. The first storage part can store a first fluid. The first fluid is at least one of the fluid that leaked from the supply/discharge channel and the fluid that leaked through the inside of the supply/discharge hole. The second storage part is provided independently from the first storage part, and can store a second fluid. The second fluid is the fluid that leaked from the outside of the supply/discharge hole.

STRUCTURAL GASEOUS MATERIAL STORAGE TANK
A tank configured to store a pressurized gas therein and carry a structural load between components of a vehicle.
FUEL TANK FOR A FUEL CELL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FUEL TANK
The invention relates to a fuel tank (1), in particular a hydrogen tank, for a fuel cell system, having a monolithic base body (10) made of a metal alloy, wherein the base body (10) has a first inner layer (11) having a first inner structure and a second outer layer (12) having a second inner structure, which differs from the first inner structure, and wherein the first inner structure is formed from a metastable austenite and the second inner structure is formed from a martensite.
COMBUSTION-POWERED FASTENER DRIVING TOOL FUEL CELL ASSEMBLY
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a combustion-powered fastener driving tool fuel cell assembly including a fuel cell, fuel cell adapter, and fuel cell adapter cap for a combustion-powered fastener driving tool. The fuel cell, the fuel cell adapter, and the fuel cell adapter cap enable both the fuel cell adapter and the fuel cell adapter cap to be attached to a fuel cell and particularly a sealing member of the fuel cell in one efficient step. This single step process can be done manually or automatically, and is substantially more efficient and less time-consuming than the known fuel cell assemblies.
Authentication of replaceable fuel cartridge
The within disclosure provides devices, methods and systems for use in authenticating hydrogen fuel tanks or cartridges utilizing unique identifier elements, physical conformations and combinations of same. A user may place a hydrogen cartridge with a hollow body and a shaped body and/or dispensing end in a carriage having a fluid communication means and said fluid communication means matching said shaped body and/or dispensing end, whereby a tank mating to the carriage is limited to matching shaped cartridge and carriage.
EXTERNAL FUEL METERING VALVE WITH SHUTTLE MECHANISM
A handheld combustion powered fastening tool may include a driving system that drives fasteners into workpieces in response to combustion of fuel by the driving system. A fuel delivery system may supply fuel to the driving system. The fuel delivery system may include a fuel canister storing liquid fuel, such as liquid hydrocarbons such as propane, and a fuel metering valve supplying a previously set amount, or volume, of fuel from the fuel canister to the driving system for combustion.

Container with heating device and safety device
A container is disclosed. The container includes a canister body, at least one heating device and at least one safety device. The canister body includes an inner space for storing a gas storage material. The at least one heating device is accommodated within an inner space of the canister body for heating the gas storage material, so that the gas storage material releases a gas. The at least one safety device is connected with the corresponding heating device and installed on an end part of the canister body. When a temperature of the inner space is higher than a predetermined temperature value or a pressure of the inner space is higher than a predetermined pressure value, a portion of the gas is released through the safety device.
