Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A connecting joint for adjustably connecting at least two components of a laboratory automation system is disclosed. The connecting joint comprises a horizontal bearing unit connectable to a first component of the at least two components of the laboratory automation system; a vertical bearing unit connectable to a second component of the at least two components of the laboratory automation system; and a slider bar connecting the horizontal bearing unit with the vertical bearing unit, wherein the slider bar is movably mounted along a vertical axis within the vertical bearing unit; and wherein the slider bar is adjustably mounted in the horizontal bearing unit, wherein the slider bar is adjustable in at least one dimension essentially perpendicular to the vertical axis by the horizontal bearing unit.

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.
