GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18473663 titled 'GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for supplying a gas to a target from a gas-liquid mixture stored in a pressure vessel, utilizing a first line connected to the gas layer and a second line connected to the liquid layer with a vaporizer in between.
- The system includes a valve to control the flow of gas from the pressure vessel to the vaporizer, a pressure gauge to monitor the internal pressure of the vessel, and a control device to open the valve and supply gas to the vessel when the pressure falls below a set value.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in industries requiring precise gas supply systems, such as pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical processing, or gas distribution.
Problems Solved
This system solves the problem of maintaining a consistent gas supply by automatically vaporizing and supplying gas from a gas-liquid mixture in a pressure vessel.
Benefits
The system ensures a continuous and reliable gas supply, reduces the risk of gas shortages or fluctuations, and improves overall process efficiency.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Gas Supply System for Industrial Processes: Improving Efficiency and Reliability"
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to gas supply systems using pressure vessels, vaporizers, and control devices, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.
Unanswered Questions
How does the control device determine the predetermined value for opening the valve?
The abstract does not specify how the control device sets or adjusts the predetermined pressure value for opening the valve.
What types of gases or gas-liquid mixtures can be used with this system?
The abstract does not mention the specific types of gases or gas-liquid mixtures that can be utilized in this system.
Original Abstract Submitted
A system for supplying a gas to a supply target from a fluid of a gas-liquid mixture stored in a pressure vessel, comprising: a first line connected to a layer of the gas in the pressure vessel; a second line connected to a layer of the liquid in the pressure vessel and having a vaporizer in the middle and merging into the first line downstream of the vaporizer; a valve disposed between the pressure vessel and the vaporizer in the second line; a pressure gauge for obtaining a pressure in the pressure vessel; and a control device, wherein the control device receives pressure information from the pressure gauge and, when the internal pressure of the pressure vessel falls below a predetermined value, controls to open the valve and supply the vaporized gas in the vaporizer in the second line from the first line to the pressure vessel.
