85 SAFETY WARNING AND SHUTDOWN DEVICE AND METHOD FOR HYDROGEN STORAGE CONTAINERS US11614936 2006-12-21 US20070159345A1 2007-07-12 NEEL SIROSH; ROBERT MILLER; TONY STAPLES
The present disclosure provides an alternative, cost-effective safety feature for on-board hydrogen storage containers incorporating a fill cycle sensor with a driver warning and shutdown system. The system monitors the number of times a hydrogen container is filled, and then takes action at a predetermined termination point. A controller monitors each time the hydrogen container is filled above 90% of the rated pressure or mass. Once the predetermined termination point of fill cycles is reached, the disclosed device/method will either disable the valve or refueling mechanism such that fuel supply to the vehicle is shutoff and the container cannot be filled again, essentially assuring the end of the life of the container.

98 Natural gas distribution system US465814 1995-06-06 US5709252A 1998-01-20 Joseph Princiotta; Alfred De Tomaso
A natural gas distribution system includes a gas cylinder having a first axial end and a second axial end. Protective collars are selectively connected to the cylinder ends. A valve is connected to the first axial end and is disposed within the first protective collar. The cylinder may be stored and transported in crates that have a plurality of compartments. Each of the plurality of compartments is configured to receive one gas cylinder in a substantially horizontal position. The crates in turn may be transported in delivery tracks that have bays with inclined floors and roll-down covering doors. An automatic air ventilation system makes sure that there is always air flow through the track so there is no accumulation of any gas escaping from the cylinders in the track. The truck may be equipped with refueling piping so that individual cylinders are refilled in the truck.

100 Disconnection-preventing safety device for liquefied gas bottle valve for use with quick-coupling connector US673806 1991-03-22 US5149053A 1992-09-22 Rosaria Galli
Safety device for liquefied gas bottle valves for use with a quick-coupling connector. The device is positively controlled and activated by the same control knob as the valve. The quick-coupling connector can be disconnected only when the valve is completely closed, and vice versa the valve can be opened only when the quick-coupling connector is inserted perfectly, all of which can be effected by a single fixed-amplitude rotation of nearly 360.degree. of the knob. This rotation causes synchronously both the activation of the internal dispensing valve member and the locking of the quick-coupling connector.
