Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of CNG storage system technology, and in particular to a gas cylinder frame for a vehicle-mounted CNG storage system. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous progress and evolution of the automotive industry, CNG vehicles have gradually demonstrated their potential and trend as a future mode of transportation. Against this backdrop, the performance and design of onboard gas storage systems, as a crucial component of automobiles, have received widespread attention, especially the design and manufacturing of gas cylinder frames, which have become a hot research topic in the industry.

[0003] In existing technologies, gas cylinder frames often have some shortcomings. One of the most significant problems is the relatively heavy weight of the frame itself, which directly affects the overall performance and fuel efficiency of the vehicle. Furthermore, due to its weight, the load-bearing capacity of the gas cylinder frame is also limited, which restricts its application in different vehicle models to some extent.

[0004] Another problem is that existing gas cylinder frames are inconvenient to install and disassemble. This deficiency not only increases the difficulty of maintaining and replacing gas cylinders but also prolongs maintenance time and reduces work efficiency. Therefore, how to improve the design of gas cylinder frames to make them lighter and easier to install and disassemble has become an urgent problem for engineers to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gas cylinder frame for a vehicle-mounted CNG storage system. Through structural optimization, this frame reduces overall weight while meeting load-bearing capacity requirements, and facilitates easy disassembly and assembly for maintenance and repair.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A vehicle-mounted CNG gas storage system cylinder frame, including a cylinder support assembly, a gas storage cylinder, a control panel assembly, and a skin assembly. The cylinder support assembly is provided with multiple cylinder compartments, and multiple support beams are provided inside the cylinder compartments. Multiple saddles are installed on the support beams. The gas storage cylinder is placed horizontally on the saddles of the cylinder compartment and fixed by a hoop. The control panel assembly is installed on one side of the bottom of the cylinder support assembly. The cylinder support assembly is characterized in that: the cylinder support assembly includes upper and lower frames, two side columns are provided at the four top corners of the upper and lower frames, and a middle column is provided in the middle of the upper and lower frames. The middle column consists of multiple vertically arranged columns. Multiple crossbeams are provided between the middle columns from top to bottom. A diagonal brace is provided between the uppermost and lowermost crossbeams in an X-shape. Multiple inclined diagonal braces are provided between the two side columns and the middle column from top to bottom. A crossbeam is provided between adjacent inclined diagonal braces.
