The cooling medium can cool the filling pipeline and keep the filling pipeline at a low temperature. The internal pressure of the filling pipeline can be detected in real time through the pressure detection valve. When the pressure is too high, the gas will enter the pressure relief branch pipe under the action of the automatic pressure relief valve, and then enter the small gas storage tank through the pressure relief branch pipe, and the pressure relief work can be automatically performed.

[0007] Preferably, the cold medium inlet pipe and the cold medium outlet pipe are both connected to the cooling chamber, and valves are provided on the cold medium inlet pipe and the cold medium outlet pipe.

It can automatically release pressure in an emergency to prevent the pipeline from bursting due to overpressure and injuries to operators, reduce the safety hazards of the gas filling system, improve the safety and reliability of the gas filling system, reduce the occurrence of accidents, and ensure the life safety of personnel and the normal operation of equipment.
