[0002] As living standards improve, the number of cars on the road increases, and environmental issues also attract widespread attention. Consequently, the automotive industry is actively promoting reforms and promoting new energy vehicles. Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, a key example of new energy vehicles, directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy through the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen. Their high efficiency and near-zero emissions make them widely recognized as promising for development worldwide. Fuel cell vehicles use hydrogen as fuel, which must be stored onboard to ensure a stable supply tailored to the vehicle's needs. Therefore, the use of reliable fuel cell valves is crucial.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0010] Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of a bottle valve used in a high-pressure hydrogen supply system according to the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0011] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0012] Please refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides a bottle valve for a high-pressure hydrogen supply system, comprising a first pipeline 1, a first inlet / outlet 2, a second inlet / outlet 3, a third inlet / outlet 4, a temperature sensor 5, a relief valve 6, a first filter 7, a second filter 10, a first manual stop valve 8, a second manual stop valve 13, an electromagnetic one-way valve 9, a bottle body 11, a bottle valve body 14, a second pipeline 15, a third pipeline 16, and a fusible plug discharge valve 12;
[0013] A first pipeline 1 is provided at the root of the bottle valve body 14, i.e., at the connection with the bottle body 11; a first inlet / outlet 2, a relief valve 6, a second filter 10, an electromagnetic one-way valve 9, a first manual stop valve 8, and a first filter 7 are sequentially provided on the first pipeline 1;
[0014] A second pipeline 15 is provided at the connection between the bottle valve main body 14 and the bottle body 11 , a second manual stop valve 13 is installed on the second pipeline 15 , and a fusible plug discharge valve 12 is installed in a branch of the second pipeline 15 ;
[0015] The first filter 7 is connected to the second inlet / outlet 3 and the third inlet / outlet 4 respectively provided on the left and right sides of the top of the bottle valve body 14 through the third pipeline 16;
[0016] A temperature sensor 5 is provided inside the bottle valve body 14 , and the third pipeline 16 is connected to the second pipeline 15 .
[0017] The first manual stop valve 8 is a normally open stop valve, and the second manual stop valve 13 is a normally closed stop valve.
[0018] The first pipeline 1 forms an angle α with the cylinder body 11, 10°≤α≤30°, and guides the airflow to rotate when the cylinder is inflated to avoid forming hot spots when the cylinder is inflated.
[0019] The filter 10 is a main filter with an accuracy of 10 μm and is used to filter impurities carried by the external gas source. The first filter 7 is an auxiliary filter with a lower filtering accuracy than the main filter and is used to filter impurities generated in the gas cylinder.
[0020] The rear end of the fusible plug relief valve 12 adopts a double-channel form. When the hydrogen supply system uses multiple cylinders, the fusible plug relief valves 12 of each cylinder are directly connected by pipelines, reducing the use of tees.
[0021] The cylinder valve body 14 adopts gas inlet and outlet channels at both ends. When multiple cylinders are used, the cylinder valves on each cylinder are directly connected through the inlet and outlet, reducing the use of system tees.
