PRESSURE STORAGE DEVICE FOR STORING A MEDIUM, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A PRESSURE STORAGE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240011603 titled 'PRESSURE STORAGE DEVICE FOR STORING A MEDIUM, AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A PRESSURE STORAGE DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The present invention is a pressure storage device for storing a medium under pressure. It includes at least one first pressure vessel with a first valve device, and a second pressure vessel with a second valve device. There is also at least one feed line and/or one discharge line connected to both valve devices. A control device is connected to the valve devices to open and/or close them, and it controls the filling and/or emptying of the pressure vessels with the medium to maintain the pressure at or below a predefined level.

  • The invention is a pressure storage device for storing a medium under pressure.
  • It includes multiple pressure vessels with valve devices.
  • There are feed and discharge lines connected to the valve devices.
  • A control device is used to open and close the valve devices and control the filling and emptying of the pressure vessels.
  • The control device maintains the pressure in the vessels at or below a predefined level.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Energy storage systems: The pressure storage device can be used to store energy in the form of compressed air or other mediums, which can be later converted back into electricity.
  • Industrial processes: The device can be used in various industrial processes that require the storage and controlled release of pressurized mediums.
  • Transportation: The technology can be applied in vehicles that utilize compressed air or other pressurized mediums for propulsion or other functions.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient storage: The pressure storage device provides an efficient and reliable method for storing pressurized mediums, allowing for easy access and controlled release.
  • Pressure regulation: The control device ensures that the pressure in the vessels is maintained at or below a predefined level, preventing over-pressurization and potential safety hazards.
  • Versatility: The device can be used with different types of mediums, making it adaptable to various applications.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Energy efficiency: The pressure storage device allows for the efficient storage and utilization of energy, reducing waste and improving overall energy efficiency.
  • Safety: The control device ensures that the pressure in the vessels is maintained within safe limits, minimizing the risk of accidents or equipment failure.
  • Flexibility: The device can be customized to accommodate different pressure levels and mediums, providing flexibility in various applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

the present invention relates to a pressure storage device () for storing a medium (m) under pressure, comprising: at least a first pressure vessel (b) having a first valve device (v), and a second pressure vessel (b) having a second valve device (v); at least one feed line (z) and/or one discharge line (a), which is connected to the first valve device (v) and to the second valve device (v); a control device (se), which is connected to the first valve device (v) and to the second valve device (v) to open and/or close same and is configured to control filling and/or emptying of the first pressure vessel (b) and of the second pressure vessel (b) with and/or of the medium such that the pressure in the first pressure vessel (b) and in the second pressure vessel (b) is at or below a predefined pressure level.
