When this is detected, the alarm can be provided with a charging control device that controls the alarm so as to notify the user, and charging to the hydrogen pressure storage tank can be promoted.
上記水素充填装置は、前記共通配管内の圧力を測定する圧力計と、該圧力計が前記共通配管内の圧力が所定値以下になったことを検知すると、前記水素ガス源を他の水素ガス源に切り換えるように制御する充填制御装置とを備えることができ、水素ガス源の自動切り換えを行うことができる。 The hydrogen filling device includes a pressure gauge for measuring the pressure in the common pipe, and when the pressure gauge detects that the pressure in the common pipe is equal to or lower than a predetermined value, the hydrogen gas source is connected to another hydrogen gas. And a filling control device that controls to switch to the source, and automatic switching of the hydrogen gas source can be performed.
上記水素充填装置は、前記水素タンクを前記着脱口側へ付勢する付勢手段を備えることができ、各々の水素タンクのノズルを確実に着脱口に接続することができる。 The hydrogen filling apparatus can include urging means for urging the hydrogen tank toward the attachment / detachment port, and the nozzle of each hydrogen tank can be reliably connected to the attachment / detachment port.
以上のように、本発明によれば、複数の水素タンクに同時に充填することなどが可能な水素充填装置を提供することができる。 As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a hydrogen filling apparatus capable of simultaneously filling a plurality of hydrogen tanks.
