SAFETY JOINT
To provide a safety joint capable of preventing moment generated by swinging of a filling hose from acting on the safety joint and surely separating the safety joint to a hydrogen filling apparatus side member and a vehicle side member when a tensile force more or equal to a predetermined value is applied to the filling hose. The safety joint 100 according to the present invention includes a plug (10) with a cylindrical shape in which a passage (1A) is formed, a socket (20) in which a passage (21A) continuing to the passage (1A) in the plug (10) is formed, and a shut off valve mounted on the passage (21A) in the socket (20), the shut off valve opening when the plug (10) being inserted into the socket (20) and closing when the plug (10) being disconnected therefrom, wherein central axes of the passages of the plug and the socket form a straight line, a filling hose (61) is connected to the plug (10), and a hose guide (70) for limiting movement of the filling hose (61) at a position separated from the plug (10).

Electronic vaporiser system
An electronic cigarette vaporiser that is the same approximate size as a cigarette and has a square or rectangular cross-section with rounded corners and includes a long PCB inserted lengthwise into the vaporiser. The PBC is not mounted at the mid-point of the cross-section, but at a different position closer to a major face of the vaporiser to permit more room for a rechargeable battery. The cross-section is a squircle.

Electronic vaporiser system
An e-liquid cartridge designed to provide e-liquid for an electronic cigarette vaporizer system, the cartridge including a chip that stores and outputs (i) a unique identity for the cartridge and/or (ii) data defining the e-liquid stored in the cartridge, and the cartridge being adapted to be inserted into or form an integral part of the electronic vaporizer system. The data stored and output by the chip defines one or more of: flavor, nicotine strength, manufacturing batch number, date of manufacture, date of filling, tax data, quantity of e-liquid stored in the cartridge.

Nozzle for a Liquid Dispensing Spout
A nozzle for a dispensing spout provides physically separate conduits, through which a liquid and air pass between a reservoir containing a liquid to be dispensed and a container into which the liquid is to be dispensed. The fluid and air conduits, as well as their respective opposing ends, are sized and shaped to provide an unobstructed air conduit which can carry ambient air into the reservoir at a rate that is at least equal to the rate at which liquid can flow out of the reservoir at a gravitational flow rate.
DEVICE FOR FUELLING MOTOR VEHICLES WITH LIQUEFIED GAS
A device for fueling motor vehicles with a fluid used as a fuel and composed of liquefied gas, in particular liquefied natural gas, includes: at least one storage container; a cooling device; at least one conveying device for feeding the fluid from the at least one storage container to at least one fueling device for motor vehicles; and at least one line for supplying the fluid to the fueling device. The at least one line includes a media-conveying central pipeline as a medium pipe and at least one additional media-conveying pipeline that is arranged concentrically with respect to the central pipeline and defines an annular space together with the media-conveying central pipeline. The media-conveying central pipeline and the at least one annular space supply and return the fluid or a gas flow. The at least one additional media-conveying pipeline is surrounded by a jacket pipe.

Electronic vaporiser system
An electronic cigarette vaporizer includes a heating element and a microcontroller; the microcontroller monitors or measures external or ambient temperature and uses that as a control input. The control input automatically controls the power delivered to the heating element to ensure that the heating element operates at its optimal temperature. Where ambient temperatures are monitored or measured as very cold, then the power to the heating element is automatically increased to compensate.
