Embodiment Construction

[0016] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] figure 1 is a perspective view of a vehicle 1 viewed from the side and above, in which a rear door, a rear side panel, and a rear floor panel are removed, and a fuel tank support structure according to the present invention is applied to the vehicle. exist figure 1 In the vehicle 1 , the rear floor 12 located on the rear side of the rear seat position is provided at a position higher than the front floor 11 , and the rear floor side members 2 are arranged along both side portions of the vehicle 1 .

[0018] The rear floor side member 2 rises obliquely from the front floor 11 to the rear side and reaches the height of the rear floor 12 located at the rear of the vehicle compartment, while the rear floor side member 2 is bent away from the right and left rear wheel houses 14 ( Figure 5 ) and extend linearly toward the rear end of the vehicle. Crus...

Abstract

A fuel tank supporting structure for supporting a fuel tank (7) under the floor of a vehicle (1) is comprises a pair of right and left tank belts (8) each stretched in the vehicle longitudinal direction at two sites separated from each other in the vehicle width direction to support the fuel tank. Right and left fixing points (81) on the vehicle front side of the tank belts are each disposed aside in the vehicle width direction with respect to right and left fixing points (82) on the vehicle rear side so that each of the tank belts extends slantwise with respect to the vehicle longitudinal direction in plan view. In the bottom surface portion of the fuel tank supported by the tank belts, right and left engagement grooves (71, 72) engaging with the tank belts are provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel tank support structure of a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Generally, the fuel tank of a front-engine vehicle is installed on the bottom side of the floor through a pair of right fuel tank straps and left fuel tank straps arranged in the length direction, so as to prevent the impact caused by the torsion of the vehicle body during driving (refer to JP2007-118635A). Moreover, considering the safety in the event of a collision, the fuel tank is arranged under the rear seat so as not to be easily affected by a rear-end collision. [0003] If a load is applied to the above-mentioned vehicle from the rear side, a force in the direction opposite to the load will act on the tank belt due to the inertia of the fuel tank, even if the load is a small load that does not cause significant deformation of the vehicle body. In particular, for a tank full of fuel, high inertial forces act and the resulting slippage and e...
