Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 with 2 A fuel tank 1 for a truck is shown having a peripheral wall 2 forming a container 3 . In this exemplary embodiment, the peripheral wall 2 is made of metal, more precisely of aluminum. However, other metallic or plastic constructions are also possible.

[0023] The design of the fuel tank 1 is proposed as a large-capacity fuel tank, the peripheral wall 2 of which forms a container 3 with a capacity of 300 liters to 1600 liters, preferably 500 liters to 1000 liters.

[0024] The tubular peripheral wall 2 has two end faces, the two end faces being closed in a known manner by means of an end wall 4 . The plastic receptacle 5 is connected to the end face of the peripheral wall 2 or bonded to the peripheral wall 2 .

[0025] The perimeter wall 2 can be arranged or clamped onto the truck's bracket 8, which is only depicted via the attachment. The bracket 8 can be formed in a known manner. according to figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the bracket 8...

Abstract

Provided is a fuel tank for a truck, the fuel tank comprising a peripheral wall (2) and end walls (4) that define at least one receptacle (3) to receive a liquid or gaseous medium, wherein at least one baffle (15) is arranged inside the peripheral wall (2), wherein the at least one baffle includes a fixing device (19, 24) inside the peripheral wall (2), and the device is connected to an outer fixing device (10) through the peripheral wall (2).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel tank for receiving fuel, in particular for trucks, wherein the fuel tank comprises means enabling it to be fixed to the chassis side members of the truck. Background technique [0002] In fuel tanks for trucks, the housing is formed by a peripheral wall which terminates at the end face of the end wall. Typically, the peripheral wall is formed tubular with the end walls welded to the two open ends. However, fuel tanks are also known which consist of one or more sleeve-like parts, in which at least a part of the peripheral wall is integral with the end wall. It is also known to arrange one or more intermediate walls inside the peripheral wall, for example in the form of baffles or in the form of partitions for subdividing the fuel tank. [0003] Fuel tanks for trucks are usually made of stainless steel, steel, aluminum or corresponding alloys. It is also possible to make the peripheral wall and the intermediate wall fro...
