Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to an integrated frame and a vehicle. Background Art
[0002] The heat dissipation modules of the mainstream fuel cell heavy-duty commercial vehicles on the market are mainly arranged at the front end of the frame or on both sides of the frame. As the power of the fuel cell system continues to increase, the space at the front end of the frame or on both sides of the frame can no longer meet the heat dissipation requirements of the high-power heat dissipation system. On the one hand, the space at the front end of the frame or on both sides of the frame is limited. On the other hand, arranging the heat dissipation module at the front end of the frame or on both sides of the frame will inevitably compress the layout space of other components. If the layout space requirements are to be met, the wheelbase of the vehicle must be increased. This will increase the turning radius of the vehicle and reduce its maneuverability. At the same time, the vehicle also has the risk of exceeding the regulatory length. Utility Model Content
