09555700 · 2017-01-31 · ·

A tank ventilation system for a motor vehicle has a fuel tank, a fuel vapor store which is connected to a fuel tank, and a ventilating device which is connected to the fuel vapor store, in order to ventilate the latter. The ventilating device has an aeration line which opens in an interior space of the motor vehicle, which interior space is delimited on all sides by vehicle body parts from the surroundings of the motor vehicle.

Tank device for storing a gaseous medium

The invention relates to a tank device (1) for storing a gaseous medium, in particular hydrogen, comprising a valve device (2), and a tank (10) and having a longitudinal axis (11). The valve device (2) has a valve housing (20), which is equipped with a pilot valve element (18) that can be moved along the longitudinal axis (11), said pilot valve element (18) interacting with a first valve seat (27) in order to open and close a first outlet opening (56) and thus forming a pilot valve (44). The valve device (2) can be actuated by means of a solenoid coil (14), wherein a main valve element (19) is arranged in the valve housing (20), said main valve element (19) interacting with a second valve seat (40) in order to open and close a second outlet opening (31) and thus forming a main valve (191). The tank device (1) comprises a screw-in housing element (24), wherein the valve device (2) is integrated into a neck region (6) of the tank (10) in a fixed manner by means of the screw-in housing element (24). The valve device (2) is arranged in the tank (10) by means of a tank pressure and is in a closed position by means of a spring (26) when the solenoid coil (14) is deactivated.
