In a device and a method for guiding a hydrogen fueled vehicle based on a hydrogen pressure of a fuel tank of the hydrogen charging station, information on a hydrogen charging station including the hydrogen pressure of the fuel tank of the hydrogen charging station is received from a server, and a charging station determined to be suitable for charging the hydrogen fueled vehicle is selected in consideration of an importance of each item obtained from a user of the hydrogen fueled vehicle based on items including at least one of a price of hydrogen charging, a charging standby time, a charging taking time, whether the hydrogen fueled vehicle is able to be fully charged, and a distance to the hydrogen charging station determined based on the information on the hydrogen charging station.

One or more indicators provide an indication of fueling status of a hydrogen powered vehicle. One or more sensors detect temperature and/or other characteristics of the fuel provided to the vehicle and provide an electrical signal to one or more of the indicators to permit an indication of fueling status. The indicators, which may be visual and/or audible, may be positioned on the fueling apparatus and on the vehicle in the vicinity of a fueling receptacle. The indicators may also be positioned elsewhere on the vehicle and may be separate from the vehicle such as on or around a fueling station and/or on separate computerized devices.

A method for automatically opening or closing a gas barrel valve, includes: loading and aligning a gas barrel in a cabinet; separating an end cap from the gas barrel; screw-coupling a connector holder to a gas spray nozzle, from which the ends cap has been removed; winding a spring around a first shaft by enabling forward rotation of the first shaft while suppressing reverse rotation of the first shaft, which is installed in a valve handle holder so as to idle; opening a valve by enabling reverse rotation of a valve handle of the gas barrel while preventing forward rotation of the valve handle holder; and automatically closing the valve at the time of replacement of the gas barrel or when a gas leak is detected.

An emergency breakaway coupling, which is a disconnect coupling, is configured such that a first coupler and a second coupler thereof are connected under normal conditions and the first coupler and the second coupler are disconnected during an emergency. A disconnect detecting device includes a detecting piece and a moving piece that are arranged in the emergency breakaway coupling. The disconnect detecting device detects the disconnect of the emergency breakaway coupling due to the movement of the moving piece from the detecting piece. The detecting piece and the moving piece are arranged in the emergency breakaway coupling such that a moving direction O2-O2 of the moving piece moving from the detecting piece is in parallel with a disconnecting direction O1-O1 of the first coupler disconnecting from the second coupler.

A tube-array-type liquid nitrogen container includes a container body having a mouth; a tube array component received in the container body; and a top cap sealing the mouth from above. The top cap is rotatable in the mouth. The tube array component is composed of a plurality of holding tubes. The holding tube is opened at one end thereof, wherein the opening thereof faces the top cap. The top cap has at least one tube access passing therethrough. Each tube access is atop covered by a tube access cover. The tube-array-type liquid nitrogen container uses a tube-array component composed of the a plurality of holding tubes to store the freezing tubes, and is cooperated with the rotatable top cap and an external robotic arm, thereby improving space utilization and thermal insulation, effectively ensuring safety of the freezing tubes, and facilitating automatic storage of freezing tubes.

A gas cylinder automation system may include: a transfer path automatically supply gas in a gas cylinder brought into the gas cylinder automation system to a semiconductor process line; and a cylinder-type sensor checking whether the transfer path is abnormal by moving along the transfer path, wherein the cylinder-type sensor includes: a cylinder head including an end cap fastening member and an end cap coupled to the end cap fastening member and having a first detecting sensor disposed on the end cap fastening member to detect one of a force or torque applied to the end cap and a cylinder body connected to the cylinder head and having a second detecting sensor including at least one of an acceleration sensor or an inclination sensor mounted thereon.
