Pressure vessel with an integrated control unit for the control of compressed fluid
First Claim
1. Pressure vessel for storage of a compressed gas, comprising a closed pressure vessel housing consisting of an essentially cylindrical main part and end-caps on both ends, and an integrated control means (2) for the release of the gas, including a pressure reducer with a high-pressure part (8) and a low-pressure part (13), and including a controlled gas-outlet (7), characterized in that at least one of the end-caps (1) is an element mounted together with the cylindrical main part, and that the majority of the components of the control means (2) are mounted to this element and are directed into the interior of the vessel housing.

Abstract
A pressure vessel for storing a compressed gas comprises a closed pressure vessel housing which consists of an essentially cylindrical main part and of closing caps located on both sides. The pressure vessel also comprises an integrated control device for delivering the gas including a pressure reducer with a high-pressure part and a low-pressure part and including a controlled gas outlet. At least one of the closing caps is a part that is assembled with the cylindrical main part and the majority of the components of the control device are mounted on this part and are directed inside the vessels housing.
