  • Patent number: 11268657
    Abstract: A device for filling and withdrawing gas includes a withdrawing circuit provided with a storage connector that can be connected to a storage container and a withdrawing connector that can be connected to a withdrawing device. The device also includes a filling circuit provided with a filling connector that can be connected to a gas source for filling the container. The filling connector includes a piston internally defining a filling duct and having a drain orifice opening transversely into said filling duct. The piston is movable inside a drain body provided with a drain duct connected to a leakage circuit connected to the outside, between an open position wherein the drain orifice does not coincide with the drain duct and a closed position wherein the drain orifice coincides with the drain duct to establish communication between said filling duct and the leakage circuit.

  • Patent number: 11215323
    Abstract: A pressure regulator includes a downstream body delimiting a low pressure chamber; an upstream body delimiting a high pressure chamber and carrying an expansion seat; a movable piston having an inner channel having an upper end forming a discharging seat and a lower end opening onto an intermediate chamber connected to a leakage circuit; a tubular valve rod passing through the inner channel of the piston and an inner channel of the upstream body, having an upper end forming a discharging valve and a lower end forming a regulating flap suitable for bearing on the expansion seat; a first biasing member compressed between the piston and the upstream body by biasing the piston towards the downstream body; and a second biasing member compressed between the piston and a plate secured to the valve rod, biasing the rod in the direction of pressing the discharging valve against the discharging seat.

  • Patent number: 11112022
    Abstract: A module includes a parallelepiped main body having four lateral faces extending between an upper face and a lower face, in which an inner chamber is provided in the main body, opening in the top and bottom faces in order to receive, on the inside, a distribution or regulation device. The inner chamber includes, consecutively, an upper bore, an intermediate bore that has a smaller diameter than the upper bore, and a lower bore that has a smaller diameter than the intermediate bore. A plate is provided on each lateral face for attachment to a plate of a similar adjacent module, the plate having peripheral holes used for the passage of attachment screws and a central blind hole suitable for guiding a drill hole opening in the upper bore or in the intermediate bore.
