Device for the intake and compression of at least one gas in fuel cell system
View Patent ↗A device for sucking in and compressing at least one gas in a fuel cell system has a compressor for the gas connected, at its gas inlet, to a gas filter system via an elastic, sealed gas-routing passage made from textile material.
1. A device for sucking in and compressing at least one gas in a fuel cell system which has a fuel cell to which gaseous fuel and an oxidizing gas are supplied, comprising:
a compressor for the gas,
a gas filter system to which the compressor is connected,
an elastic, sealed gas-routing passage made from textile material that interconnects the gas filter system to a gas inlet of the compressor and that prevents penetration of gases from outside the sealed gas routing passage, and
a porous, flexible gas routing passage connected to an inlet side of the gas filter system to pre-filter gas entering the gas filter system and prevent particles in the gas from entering the gas filter system.
2. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sealed gas-routing passage has textile fibers or filaments which are provided with an elastic, gastight coating.
3. The device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the coating is a plastic or a metal.
4. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sealed gas-routing passage is a hose.
5. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage is made from porous textile material.
6. The device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage includes textile fibers or filaments.
7. The device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a surface of the porous gas-routing passage is coated with at least one active substance which is ready to react with respect to at least one gas.
8. The device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage is a hose.
9. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the device is arranged in a mobile device.
10. The device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the sealed gas-routing passage is a hose.
11. The device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the sealed gas-routing passage is a hose.
12. The device as claimed in claim 2 , and further wherein the porous gas-routing passage is made from porous textile material.
13. The device as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage includes textile fibers or filaments.
14. The device as claimed in claim 12 , wherein a surface of the porous gas-routing passage is coated with at least one active substance which is ready to react with respect to at least one gas.
15. The device as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage is designed as a hose.
16. The device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage is made from porous textile material.
17. The device as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage includes textile fibers or filaments.
18. The device as claimed in claim 16 , wherein a surface of the porous gas-routing passage is coated with at least one active substance which is ready to react with respect to at least one gas.
19. The device as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the porous gas-routing passage is a hose.
20. The device as claimed in claim 3 , and further wherein the porous gas-routing passage is made from porous textile material.
