GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18494741 titled 'GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation:
This patent application describes a gas supply system where a tank can be detached from a gas consumption device. A control device is in place to close a valve when the tank is detached, stop gas supply and consumption, and allow detachment only when pressure levels are safe.
- Gas supply system with detachable tank
- Control device to manage gas flow and detachment
- Safety mechanism to prevent detachment at unsafe pressure levels
Key Features and Innovation:
- Tank can be easily detached from gas consumption device
- Control device ensures safe gas supply and consumption
- Pressure sensor used to monitor pressure levels for safe detachment
Potential Applications:
- Industrial gas supply systems
- Home gas appliances
- Gas-powered vehicles
Problems Solved:
- Ensures safe detachment of gas tank
- Prevents accidents due to high pressure levels
- Efficient management of gas supply and consumption
Benefits:
- Enhanced safety in gas supply systems
- Prevents gas leaks and accidents
- Easy and convenient detachment process
Commercial Applications:
Gas supply companies can use this technology to improve the safety and efficiency of their gas supply systems, potentially reducing accidents and improving customer satisfaction.
Questions about Gas Supply System with Detachable Tank:
1. How does the control device ensure safe detachment of the gas tank? 2. What are the potential risks associated with detaching a gas tank from a consumption device?
Frequently Updated Research:
Stay updated on advancements in gas supply system technology, particularly in the area of safety features and pressure monitoring for detachable tanks.
Original Abstract Submitted
A tank of a gas supply system is configured to be detachably attached to a gas consumption device. A control device is configured to, when the tank is detached, close an open/close valve to stop supply of gas from the tank, stop consumption of gas by the gas consumption device after the gas in the supply channel is consumed, and perform computation to permit detachment of the tank after confirming that pressure acquired from a pressure sensor is not rising to a predetermined level or higher.
