Patent EP-1741972-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FINAMORE PETER
IPC: F17C11/00
Filed: 2006-07-06
Abstract: A container (10, 510) for storing hydrogen comprises an outer shell (18) having an inlet (26) for inputting hydrogen gas and an outlet (28) for outputting hydrogen gas. A thermally conductive liner (20, 31) lines an interior of the outer shell (18). An inner hydride core (30, 34) is in communication with the inlet (26) and the outlet (28) for storing the hydrogen gas. Coolant lines (117) are in thermal communication with the storage container (10, 510). A thermal management controller (100) determines whether the container (10, 510) is in a dispensing mode or a refueling mode. If the container (10, 510) is in the dispensing mode, the coolant lines (117) may be routed to a first heat exchanger (108) that is in thermal communication with a propulsion unit (106) of a vehicle. However, if the container (10, 510) is in the refueling mode, the coolant lines (117) may be routed to a second heat exchanger (112) associated with a temperature that is less than or equal to the ambient temperature outside of the vehicle.

Abstract: The image capturing device (10) according to the present invention is configured so that the lens barrel (20, 102) having the entrance window (104) and the refractive optical system (106) can be expanded and contracted. In addition, the entrance window (104) is located at the in-use position where the entrance window protrudes from the image capturing device body (12) when the lens barrel is expanded, and is located at the not-in-use position where the entrance window is housed in the image capturing device body when the lens barrel (20, 102) is contracted. Therefore, the structure can be simplified, and the size of the camera can be reduced. Furthermore, when the image capturing device (10) is not in use, the entrance window (104) is housed in the image capturing device body (12). Therefore, no barrier is needed, and the structure can be simplified.
