  • Patent number: 11629820
    Abstract: Disclosed is a liquefied hydrogen filling apparatus configured such that connection between liquefied hydrogen injection lines is performed stepwise, whereby there is no concern of leakage of liquefied hydrogen the moment the liquefied hydrogen injection lines are connected to each other, and therefore it is possible to guarantee safety and to prevent loss of fuel. In addition, the state of connection between the liquefied hydrogen injection lines is securely maintained, whereby there is no concern of separation due to internal pressure at the time of filling or other external force, and therefore it is possible to perform safe filling.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11555581
    Abstract: Disclosed is a gas discharge apparatus for liquefied hydrogen storage tanks, the gas discharge apparatus including a receptacle mounted to a liquefied hydrogen storage tank, the receptacle having a stationary valve configured to be opened by external force mounted therein, a multistage opening and closing device coupled to the receptacle such that the position of the multistage opening and closing device is adjustable, the multistage opening and closing device being configured to be opened by reaction force transmitted from the receptacle when moved relative to the receptacle, the multistage opening and closing device having a sliding valve configured to push open the stationary valve in the state in which the multistage opening and closing device is open, and a manipulation unit configured to move the multistage opening and closing device relative to the receptacle such that the sliding valve and the stationary valve are sequentially opened.
