Abstract
A hybrid vehicle having an electric drive with an energy storage device for the electric drive, and an internal combustion engine, and a tank device having a tank for storing fuel for the internal combustion engine. The hybrid vehicle further includes a cooling circuit, extending through the tank, having a circulating cooling medium to cool the energy storage device and also cool the fuel in the tank.
Claims15
A hybrid vehicle comprising:
- an electric drive having an energy storage device;
- an internal combustion engine;
- a tank for storing fuel for the internal combustion engine;
- a pressure compensation vessel fluidically connected to the tank;
- and
- a cooling circuit, extending through the tank, having a circulating cooling medium to cool the energy storage device and the fuel in the tank.

A hybrid vehicle comprising:
- an energy storage device for an electric drive of the hybrid vehicle;
- a tank for storing fuel for an internal combustion engine of the hybrid vehicle;
- a pressure compensation vessel fluidically connected to the tank;
- a diaphragm to divide the pressure compensation vessel into a first pressure compensation vessel region facing the tank and a second pressure compensation vessel region facing away from the tank;
- and
- a cooling circuit, extending through the tank, having a circulating cooling medium to cool the energy storage device and the fuel in the tank.
3 more elements
A hybrid vehicle comprising:
- an energy storage device;
- a tank for storing fuel for an internal combustion engine of the hybrid vehicle;
- a filling tube operatively connected to the tank;
- a pressure compensation vessel fluidically connected to the tank;
- a diaphragm to divide the pressure compensation vessel into a first pressure compensation vessel region facing the tank and a second pressure compensation vessel region facing away from the tank, wherein the pressure compensation vessel is subjected to pressure on a side of the diaphragm facing away from the tank by a gas, the pressure corresponding at least to a hydrostatic pressure in the filling tube;
- and
- a cooling circuit, extending through the tank, having a circulating cooling medium to cool the energy storage device and the fuel in the tank.
