INJECTION MODULE FOR A CONVEYOR ASSEMBLY OF A FUEL CELL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240313236 titled 'INJECTION MODULE FOR A CONVEYOR ASSEMBLY OF A FUEL CELL SYSTEM

The invention pertains to an injection module for a conveyor assembly of a fuel cell system for conveying and/or recirculating a gaseous medium, particularly hydrogen.

  • The injection module includes a communicating opening and/or an inlet opening for the gaseous medium to flow into the module.
  • It consists of a small nozzle body with a first drive nozzle and a large nozzle body with a second drive nozzle for the gaseous medium to flow out of the module.
  • The small nozzle body is movably positioned in the large nozzle body and/or in the injection module.
  • Both the small and large nozzle bodies have gas flow paths.
  • The gaseous medium can flow through either the first gas flow path only or through both the first and second gas flow paths simultaneously.
  • The second gas flow path can be opened or closed by the movement of the small nozzle body.

Potential Applications: - Fuel cell systems - Hydrogen storage and transportation systems - Industrial gas handling equipment

Problems Solved: - Efficient conveyance and recirculation of gaseous mediums - Control of gas flow paths in a conveyor assembly

Benefits: - Improved performance and efficiency of fuel cell systems - Enhanced safety in handling gaseous mediums - Precise control over gas flow paths

Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, energy production, and manufacturing for the efficient handling and conveyance of gaseous mediums.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the injection module improve the performance of fuel cell systems? 2. What are the potential safety implications of using this technology in industrial applications?


Original Abstract Submitted

the invention relates to an injection module () for a conveyor assembly () of a fuel cell system () for conveying and/or recirculating a gaseous medium, in particular hydrogen, in which: the injection module () has a communicating opening () and/or an inlet opening (), by means of which the gaseous medium flows into the injection module (); the injection module () has a small nozzle body () having a first drive nozzle () and a large nozzle body () having a second drive nozzle (), by means of which () the gaseous medium flows out of the injection module (); the small nozzle body () is disposed movably in the direction of a longitudinal axis () in the large nozzle body () and/or in the injection module (); the small nozzle body () and the large nozzle body () each have a gas flow path (iii, iv); the gaseous medium can flow either only through the first gas flow path iii or through the first gas flow path iii and the second gas flow path iv simultaneously; the second gas flow path iv can be opened or closed by means of a movement of the small nozzle body (). according to the invention, the small nozzle body () abuts a stop disc () and/or at least indirectly abuts the large nozzle body (), and thus forms an opening pressure surface (); the opening pressure surface () and a closing pressure surface (), in particular located at the outflow end of the small nozzle body, are at least almost the same size; the opening pressure surface () can be subjected to a dynamic pressure () at the inflow end.
