A pressure vessel for storing may have a connection piece for forming a fluid connection between the fuel storage volume V of the pressure vessel and an energy converter of a motor vehicle. At least part of the connection piece may extend out of the pressure vessel. An outer surface of the connection piece may have a sealing face and a curved fastening face. The sealing face may be designed to seal off the fluid connection between the pressure vessel and a fuel-conducting section of the motor vehicle. The fastening face may be provided for fastening the pressure vessel to at least one body attachment element.

Pressure vessel, pressure vessel system, and motor vehicle having fuel rail

A fuel rail and a method for producing the fuel rail for a pressure vessel system are provided. The method provides a fuel line and configures a plurality of rail connectors. The rail connectors have a cross-sectional area that is enlarged in comparison to the provided fuel line, and the rail connectors are configured so as to be integral to the fuel line.

A filling device for a pressure vessel of a motor vehicle includes a filling neck via which an operating medium can be filled into a pressure vessel, a dust cap which can be plugged onto the filling neck and which, together with the filling neck, delimits a filling volume. A housing apparatus includes a main element and a cover element which can be adjusted relative to the main element between an open position and a closed position which, together with the main element, delimits a housing interior. The dust cap is arranged in the housing interior. At least one ventilation channel, which is delimited in regions by the dust cap, extends from the filling volume into an environment separated from the housing interior by way of the cover in its closed position and has at least one direction-reversing element.

A pressure vessel system for a vehicle includes a pressure vessel and a fuel line. The system also includes a blocking unit which, in an inoperative state, prevents fuel from passing out of the pressure vessel into the fuel line. A control unit for the blocking unit is designed, under the action of electrical energy, to transfer the blocking unit from the inoperative state into an active state in which fuel can pass out of the pressure vessel into the fuel line. Furthermore, the system includes an electrically conducting connection to an electrical system of the vehicle via which electrical energy can be provided for controlling the blocking unit. In addition, the system includes an access interface unit via which electrical energy for controlling the blocking unit can be provided from an external energy supply if no electrical energy is available from the electrical system of the vehicle.

Pressure vessel system for a vehicle

A cryogenic pressure container for a motor vehicle has an inner container and an outer container. An evacuated space is arranged between the inner container and the outer container at least in some regions. The inner container has a synthetic material layer. A barrier layer is arranged at least in some regions between the synthetic material layer and the evacuated space. The barrier layer is designed and arranged so as to at least reduce the transfer of constituents leaking out of the synthetic material layer into the evacuated space, wherein a gap is formed at least in some regions between the barrier layer and the synthetic material layer.
