Abstract: The technology disclosed here relates to a pressure container system. The pressure container system includes a plurality of pressure containers for storing fuel and at least one load-distributing base layer. The load-distributing base layer is advantageously arranged between a lower base plate and the plurality of pressure containers. The load-distributing base layer is designed such that forces F, which act locally on the lower base plate and which act on the lower base plate substantially in the direction of the vehicle vertical axis Z, can be distributed to the plurality of pressure containers.

Abstract: A motor vehicle has at least one pressure vessel for storing storage medium, preferably fuel, at least one pressure relief device for pressure relief of the at least one pressure vessel, and at least one opening through which storage medium flows out during a pressure relief.

Abstract: A motor vehicle includes at least one pressure vessel for storing fuel, and at least one holder for holding the pressure vessel. When installed, the holder encloses one end of the pressure vessel. The holder has a hard shell and an inner layer, wherein at least regions of the inner layer, when installed, are arranged between the hard shell and the connecting element. The hard shell has a higher rigidity than the inner layer.

Abstract: A motor vehicle has a pressure vessel unit, the pressure vessels of which are arranged on both sides of a recess or depression in a passenger compartment floor.

Abstract: A pressure container arrangement includes a plurality of pressure containers, a number of safety valves, and a number of connection lines. The plurality of pressure containers are connected in fluid terms by the number of connection lines. At least one of the number of safety valves is disposed between a respective two of the plurality of pressure containers which are connected to each other. The number of safety valves are constructed to close from a predetermined maximum throughflow and/or from a predetermined maximum pressure difference.

Abstract: A method increases the safety and/or the reliability of the operation of a fuel cell stack. The method determines that the fuel cell stack is in a space with a reduced air exchange rate. The method determines consumption information with respect to an oxygen consumption of the fuel cell stack within an interval of time. The method determines, on the basis of the air exchange rate, inflow information with respect to an amount of oxygen which was supplied to the space within the interval of time. The method determines an estimated value for an oxygen content of air in the space on the basis of the consumption information and on the basis of the inflow information.

Abstract: A method of producing a barrier layer of a pressure vessel includes applying the barrier layer to a liner and/or to a fiber-reinforced layer of the pressure vessel while a pressure difference between the internal volume and the surroundings of the pressure vessel is being maintained.

Abstract: A pressure vessel for containing pressure, for example, high pressure associated with storage of compressed gaseous fuels, includes a wall which surrounds an interior space. The wall includes an arrangement of wall threads and a matrix. An internal structure having a number of internal threads is provided for bracing, the internal threads having portions embedding in the matrix adjacent to the wall threads. A method for producing a pressure vessel of this type is also provided.

Abstract: A tank assembly includes a tank, at least one pressure relief valve, at least one heat transmission path, and at least one heat transmission element. The at least one pressure relief valve is configured to allow a pressure relief of the tank when a temperature threshold value at the pressure relief valve is exceeded. The heat transmission path and the pressure relief valve are connected via the at least one heat transmission element. The heat transmission element is changeable with respect to the heat transmission between the heat transmission path and the pressure relief valve.

Abstract: A pressure vessel stores fuel. The pressure vessel includes a liner, a fiber-reinforced layer, at least one end piece, and at least one outlet. The fiber-reinforced layer surrounds the liner, at least in some regions. The end piece is covered by the fiber-reinforced layer, at least in some regions. The at least one outlet is used to carry fuel that has collected in a boundary layer between the liner and the fiber-reinforced layer and is to be drained. The outlet surrounds the end piece, at least in some sections. The outlet is arranged and formed in such a way that the fuel to be drained escapes from the boundary layer into the outlet.

Abstract: A tank device, in particular in a vehicle, has a pressure tank for storing fuel and a fuel line for filling the pressure tank which extends from outside of the pressure tank through a tank opening up to a free line end in the interior of the pressure tank. The fuel line in the pressure tank has at least one line outlet through which the fuel can flow out of the fuel line into the pressure tank. The fuel line, between the tank opening and the free line end, has a flexible line section such that the flexible line section moves when the pressure tank is filled.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A method arranges and displays graphic elements of a display of a vehicle navigation system within a display surface, the graphic elements including at least one geographical element and one non-geographical element. The quantity of information that can be directly registered by the driver is increased. The at least one non-geographical element is arranged and displayed within the display surface such that the likelihood of the at least one geographical element being covered by the at least one non-geographical element is minimised and in particular completely avoided.

Abstract: A method and an obstacle assistance device for automatically activating an obstacle detection device of a motor vehicle detects whether a visual obstacle is located in front of the motor vehicle in the driving direction, detects whether the visual obstacle is movable or is moving; detects whether a blind spot region in front of the motor vehicle in the driving direction can be released by moving the visual obstacle, and automatically activates an obstacle detection device if it has been detected that a visual obstacle is located in front of the motor vehicle in the driving direction, that the visual obstacle is movable or is moving, and that a blind spot region in front of the motor vehicle in the driving direction can be removed by moving the visual obstacle.

Abstract: A closure system for a pressurized container system for a motor vehicle includes a fuel filler flap and at least one refueling connection. The refueling connection has a non-return valve and a protective cap. The protective cap is designed to be pluggable onto an end of the refueling connection.
