A pressure vessel arrangement includes a plurality of pressure vessels configured to store fuel, and a valve arrangement with at least one valve and a plurality of tank connectors. In the pressure vessel arrangement each pressure vessel of the plurality of pressure vessels is connected to one of the tank connectors. Further, in the pressure vessel arrangement the valve arrangement connects the tank connectors directly to one another and to the at least one valve, such that a fluid exchange which is not impaired at any time by way of a valve is brought about between the individual pressure vessels.

The present disclosure discloses a high-pressure gas storage and supply device. The disclosed high-pressure gas storage and supply device includes a plurality of gas storage tanks that store a high-pressure gas therein and selectively discharge the stored gas, and a gas transport pipe including tank inlet/outlet lines respectively connected to the plurality of gas storage tanks to fill the gas in the gas storage tanks or discharge the gas stored in the gas storage tanks. Thus, in the present disclosure, the gas may be filled in or discharged from the gas storage tanks by the same one tank inlet/outlet line, and thus a structure for filling or discharging the high-pressure gas can be simplified.

A hydrogen refueling station including a first and a second dispensing module having first and second dispensing pressure detection means, where supply lines are fluidly connecting a storage module to an inlet compressor line and a compressor outlet line is fluidly connecting an outlet of the compressor to a dispensing line and thereby to the first and/or second dispensing module via output compressor valves, cascade lines are fluidly connecting the hydrogen storage module and the dispenser modules thereby configured for bypassing the compressor, where a controller is configured for controlling valves and thereby a fluid path from the hydrogen storage module to the dispensing modules, the controller is configured for controlling a bypass valve based on feedback from pressure detection means, from a first dispensing pressure detection means or from a second dispensing pressure detection means to establish a required pressure in the compressor outlet line.

A system for transferring a fluid includes a transfer line connecting a storage tank and an LNG carrier, a loading arm provided on the transfer line, an emergency shutoff device configured to shut off the transfer line, a bypass line connecting the transfer line and the storage tank, and a bypass valve provided in the bypass line. The storage tank includes a fluid reception pipe configured to receive the fluid from the outside and a BOG pipe configured to discharge a boil-off gas of the fluid generated in the storage tank to the outside, and the bypass line is connected to at least one of the fluid reception pipe or the BOG pipe.

A type IV conformable pressure vessel is provided comprising an elongated folded tank and a valve assembly configured to pass fluid into and out of an interior of the tank through first and second filling couplers directly connected to a respective first and second end of the tank. The tank has at least two chambers for the storage of fluid. The valve assembly receives fluid from an external source, selectively provides the external fluid through a Venturi nozzle into a mixing chamber, recirculates fluid from the second end of the tank into the mixing chamber, and delivers the mixture of the recirculated fluid and the external fluid to the first end of the tank.

A system and a method for liquefied fuel storage are provided. The system includes a first module including a first outer vessel wall and a cryotank, a second module including a second outer vessel wall and a submerged pump at partially inside the second outer vessel wall, and a third module including a third outer vessel wall. The first, the second, and the third outer vessel walls are connected to provide an enclosure as an outer vessel.

The present invention provides a leak-proof fluid dispensing system with a pressure sensor and an adjustable dispensing regulator, comprising: a gas cylinder and a pressure dispensing control valve. The dispensing control valve is formed outside the bottle body opening and has an internal channel that communicates with an inlet port, an outlet port, a bottle port, and the joint portion. The internal of the dispensing body includes an inlet valve, an outlet valve, a pressure dispensing regulator, a filter, and a pressure sensor. The pressure at the outlet end of pressure dispensing regulator is lower than or equal to a preset opening pressure value, the fluid is allowed to flow out. With the implementation of the present invention, it may prevent accidental leakage of fluid in the gas cylinder and dynamically monitor the flow gas capacity in the gas cylinder.

A regulator valve assembly for a compressed fluid source may comprise a valve housing defining a main fluid channel, a secondary fluid channel, a primary outlet, a primary inlet, and a secondary inlet. A poppet may be located in the main fluid channel, The poppet may define a poppet channel and a poppet outlet. The poppet channel may be fluidly connected to the secondary inlet. A rod may be configured to translate in and out the poppet outlet. A pin may be biased toward the secondary fluid channel. The pin may be configured to translate into a translation path of the rod. A solenoid valve may be configured to control a flow of fluid into the secondary fluid channel.

Disclosed is a liquefied hydrogen filling apparatus configured such that connection between liquefied hydrogen injection lines is performed stepwise, whereby there is no concern of leakage of liquefied hydrogen the moment the liquefied hydrogen injection lines are connected to each other, and therefore it is possible to guarantee safety and to prevent loss of fuel. In addition, the state of connection between the liquefied hydrogen injection lines is securely maintained, whereby there is no concern of separation due to internal pressure at the time of filling or other external force, and therefore it is possible to perform safe filling.

A pressure vessel system for a vehicle includes a pressure vessel and a fuel line. The system also includes a blocking unit which, in an inoperative state, prevents fuel from passing out of the pressure vessel into the fuel line. A control unit for the blocking unit is designed, under the action of electrical energy, to transfer the blocking unit from the inoperative state into an active state in which fuel can pass out of the pressure vessel into the fuel line. Furthermore, the system includes an electrically conducting connection to an electrical system of the vehicle via which electrical energy can be provided for controlling the blocking unit. In addition, the system includes an access interface unit via which electrical energy for controlling the blocking unit can be provided from an external energy supply if no electrical energy is available from the electrical system of the vehicle.
