[0002] An RV, also known as a "home on wheels", combines the functions of a "house" and a "car", but its attribute is still a car. It is a mobile vehicle with the basic facilities necessary for a home.
[0003] RV is a fashionable vehicle introduced from abroad. The household facilities on the vehicle include: bedding, stoves, refrigerators, cabinets, sofas, dining tables and chairs, washing facilities, air conditioners, televisions, stereos and other furniture and electrical appliances. It can be divided into driving area, living area, bedroom area, sanitary area, kitchen area, etc. RV is a fashionable product that integrates "clothing, food, housing and transportation" and realizes "travel in life and live in travel".
[0004] Most of the existing RV water tanks are just a square box. Since there are many parts installed on the RV chassis, the space for installing the water tank is very small. Because the water tank is square, its size when fixed is limited by the size of the installation space, which leads to the selection of only very small water tanks. The small water tank has a small water storage capacity. For RVs, if the amount of clean water carried is too little, it will affect the user's life in the RV, and it is necessary to frequently find a water source to add clean water, which is very inconvenient.
