Pressure vessel and method for filling it

Abstract

A valve may have a valve body having a lateral wall, a passage opening and a vertical filling opening and a vertical inflow opening. The passage opening may extend from the vertical filling opening to the vertical inflow opening. In a filling position of the valve, the passage opening may be closed from the lateral wall in a media-tight manner and the filling opening may be fluidically connected via the vertical passage opening to the vertical inflow opening. A pressure vessel may utilize the valve.
