Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 A bottom view of a motor vehicle floor 1 on which two fuel tank modules 2 , 3 are mounted is schematically shown. Among the two fuel tank modules, the front fuel tank module 2 is roughly located under the front seats of the vehicle, and the rear fuel tank module 3 is located behind the rear axle 4 . Each fuel tank module 2 , 3 comprises two fuel containers 5 each having the shape of a cylinder with arched end sides. Such a fuel container 5 is especially suitable for containing high-pressure gas, however, in a hybrid vehicle, one or more fuel containers 5 may be provided for containing normally liquid fuels, such as gasoline or diesel fuel, alcohol, etc.

[0028] The structure of fuel tank module 2 or 3 can be in figure 2 It can be seen more clearly in the perspective view of . Between the two fuel containers 5 there is a support 6 formed from a rectangular blank, to which the fuel containers 5 are fastened in each case by means of two tensioning straps 7 . ...

Abstract

A tank module is provided for a motor vehicle comprises at least two fuel tanks (5) and a carrier body (6) having concave flanks (8) formed of sheet material and arranged between the fuel tanks (5) and facing the fuel tanks (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel tank module for installation on or in a motor vehicle, in particular a fuel tank module which can be filled with high-pressure gas as fuel. Background technique [0002] Containers for liquid fuels can largely adopt any shape that can effectively utilize the existing cavities or recesses of the car body, but for high-pressure gas containers, the container must withstand high internal pressure It will not be deformed, thus severely limiting the possibility of high-pressure gas container shape construction. In order to ensure the deformation resistance of the high-pressure gas container, the high-pressure gas container should have a circular cross-section in at least one cross-section and should essentially only be compatible with the available fuel tanks in three spatial directions by Cavities of different sizes are matched, that is, a plurality of substantially cylindrical pressure vessels whose diameter and length resp...
