HYDROGEN STORAGE DEVICE AND VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18302074 titled 'HYDROGEN STORAGE DEVICE AND VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a hydrogen storage device for vehicles that includes multiple receptacles, hydrogen tanks, a flow path, a solenoid valve, and a control device. The solenoid valve controls the flow of hydrogen between two independent flow paths. The control device determines whether to open or close the solenoid valve based on the condition of the hydrogen filling device.

  • The hydrogen storage device is designed to store hydrogen in a vehicle.
  • It includes multiple receptacles for connecting the hydrogen filling device.
  • The device has multiple hydrogen tanks for storing hydrogen.
  • A flow path is provided for the hydrogen to flow through.
  • A solenoid valve is located in the flow path to control the flow of hydrogen.
  • The flow path consists of two independent paths that can be switched between a state of communication and a state of no communication.
  • The control device is responsible for controlling the solenoid valve.
  • The control device calculates whether to open or close the solenoid valve based on the condition of the hydrogen filling device.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be used in hydrogen-powered vehicles to store and control the flow of hydrogen.
  • It can be applied in hydrogen refueling stations to efficiently fill hydrogen tanks in vehicles.

Problems Solved

  • The hydrogen storage device solves the problem of efficiently storing and controlling the flow of hydrogen in vehicles.
  • It addresses the need for a reliable and safe system for hydrogen storage and refueling.

Benefits

  • The device allows for efficient and controlled storage of hydrogen in vehicles.
  • It provides a reliable and safe system for refueling hydrogen-powered vehicles.
  • The independent flow paths and solenoid valve enable flexibility and control in the hydrogen storage system.


Original Abstract Submitted

A hydrogen storage device is included in a vehicle and is configured to store hydrogen. The hydrogen storage device includes: a plurality of receptacles configured such that a nozzle of the hydrogen filling device is connected thereto; a plurality of hydrogen tanks; a flow path through which hydrogen flows; a solenoid valve located in the flow path; and a control device. The flow path includes an independent first flow path and an independent second flow path. By opening and closing the solenoid valve, the independent first and second flow paths are switched between a state in which they communicate with each other and a state in which they do not communicate with each other. The control device is configured to control the solenoid valve and configured to perform a calculation for determining whether to open or close the solenoid valve, based on a condition of the hydrogen filling device.
