HIGH-PRESSURE TANK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240200727 titled 'HIGH-PRESSURE TANK

The high-pressure tank described in the patent application consists of a tank body, a valve, and a handle unit. The valve is designed with specific components to control the flow of gas within the tank.

  • The valve includes a first body with a housing hole and a communication hole, a second body with communication and housing holes, a connector portion with a through hole, a second valve disc, and a handle portion.
  • The second valve disc blocks or allows communication between the through hole and the second housing hole based on the pushing force of the pushing pin.
  • The handle portion can be fitted into the handle receiving groove on the gas supply target side, and the first valve disc opens and closes with a twisting operation of the handle unit.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various high-pressure gas storage systems, such as scuba tanks, industrial gas cylinders, and medical gas containers. - It can also be applied in automotive fuel tanks and aerospace propulsion systems.

Problems Solved: - Ensures precise control and regulation of gas flow within high-pressure tanks. - Enhances safety by preventing leaks and ensuring proper sealing of the valve components.

Benefits: - Improved efficiency in gas storage and distribution systems. - Enhanced safety measures for handling high-pressure gases. - Simplified operation and maintenance of high-pressure tanks.

Commercial Applications: - This technology can be valuable in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, transportation, and aerospace for safe and efficient gas storage and distribution.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the twisting operation of the handle unit affect the opening and closing of the valve? 2. What are the specific safety features incorporated into this high-pressure tank design?

Frequently Updated Research: - Stay updated on advancements in high-pressure tank technology, safety standards, and regulations in the gas storage industry.


Original Abstract Submitted

the high pressure tank includes a tank body, a valve, and a handle unit. the valve includes a first body provided with a first housing hole and a first communication hole communicating with the first communication hole, a second body provided with a second communication hole communicating with the first housing hole and a second housing hole communicating with the second communication hole, a connector portion provided with a through hole communicating with the second housing hole, a second valve disc blocking the communication between the through hole and the second housing hole and allowing the communication between the through hole and the second housing hole by the pushing force of the pushing pin, and a handle portion that can be fitted into the handle receiving groove on the gas supply target side. the first valve disc opens and closes with an operation of twisting the handle unit.
