2. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein:
the first connecting element and the second connecting element are configured for connection to one another in a fluid-conducting manner exclusively via the pressurized storage tanks.
3. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , further comprising a filling valve unit and/or a removal valve unit arranged in or on the connecting device.
4. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the at least two pressurized storage tanks are configured for connection inseparably to the connecting device in a manner such that it is only possible to separate a respective one of the pressurized storage tanks from the connecting device by destroying a seal and/or mechanically.
5. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the pressurized storage tanks are configured for connection to the connecting device by way of a fixed screwed joint.
6. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein:
at least one of the pressurized storage tanks has a transverse bore on the first connecting section;
the transverse bore intersects an axial bore of the pressurized storage tank; and
the transverse bore is configured for connection in a fluid-conducting manner to the connecting device.
7. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 6 , further comprising sealing rings configured to form a respective seal between the at least two pressurized storage tanks and the connecting device, wherein the sealing rings are installed on the first connecting section of the pressurized storage tank on both sides of the transverse bore.
8. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the first connecting section of the pressurized storage tank is configured for connection to the connecting device by way of a joint.
9. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 8 , wherein the joint comprises a spring element in the connecting section, which comes to rest in a groove of the connecting device.
10. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , further comprising a valve, arranged in an axial bore of the at least two pressurized storage tanks.
11. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the connecting device has an opening in the region of an axial bore of the at least two pressurized storage tanks.
12. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 1 , wherein:
the pressurized storage tank has a predetermined breaking point in the first connecting section, with a flow limiter arranged in the pressurized storage tank; and
the predetermined breaking point is arranged in such a way relative to the flow limiter that the flow limiter remains in the pressurized storage tank when there is a break at the predetermined breaking point.
13. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 5 , further comprising sealing elements configured to form a seal at a region between the outer circumference of the fixed screwed joint and the connecting device and/or the at least two pressurized storage tanks.
14. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 13 , wherein the fixed screwed joint, has a transverse bore between sealing elements, which is configured for connection in a fluid-conducting manner to a bore of the connecting device.
15. The pressurized storage tank arrangement of claim 13 , further comprising valves and/or filters and/or sensors arranged in the fixed screwed joint.
16. A pressurized storage tank arrangement for a motor vehicle, the pressure accumulator assembly comprising: a connecting device to be connected at fastening points to the motor vehicle and having a pair of spaced apart connecting elements each having a transversely extending bore; and at least one pressure accumulator supported at opposite ends thereof by a respective one of the connecting elements to thereby establish a fluid-conductive connection at both ends thereof between the transverse bore and an axial bore of the at least one pressure accumulator, wherein the connecting device and the at least one pressure accumulator together form a mechanically stable frame manner wherein the pressure storage tank arrangement provides fuel for the motor vehicle.
17. A pressurized storage tank arrangement for a motor vehicle, the pressure accumulator assembly comprising: a connecting device for connection at fastening points thereof to the motor vehicle, the connecting device having a pair of spaced apart connecting elements; and a plurality of pressure accumulators configured for fluidic connection to one another and the connecting elements at opposite ends thereof via the connecting elements of the connecting device, wherein the connecting device and the plurality of pressure accumulators together form a mechanically stable frame manner wherein the pressure storage tank arrangement provides fuel for the motor vehicle.
