Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle-mounted water tank technology, and in particular to a water tank under a vehicle and a vehicle containing the same. Background Technology

[0002] When camping outdoors, obtaining and storing drinking water is a key challenge: on the one hand, natural water sources such as rivers and lakes commonly found in camping areas are at risk of contamination due to environmental pollutants and microorganisms, and cannot be directly used for daily life activities such as washing and cooking; on the other hand, the capacity of car water tanks is usually limited and cannot support the camping water needs of several days or multiple people, so it is necessary to carry an additional water storage tank.

[0003] However, carrying an extra water tank has obvious drawbacks: to meet basic water storage needs, these tanks are often large in size, taking up space in the trunk, between seats, and other areas, further compressing the already limited storage and activity space inside the vehicle, resulting in a cramped and confined interior environment; some users choose to place the water tank on the roof to free up interior space, but this increases the load on the vehicle's roof and raises the overall center of gravity of the vehicle, which can easily disrupt the vehicle's balance, reduce handling stability, and pose safety hazards, especially on mountain roads, curves, or bumpy sections.

[0004] In response to the space occupation and safety hazards of existing water storage solutions, there is an urgent need for a water tank that can be installed under the vehicle: it can ensure sufficient water storage capacity to meet the needs of camping, while avoiding the use of the vehicle's interior and roof space, thus avoiding occupying practical space or raising the vehicle's center of gravity. It can solve the water problem while taking into account both the comfort of the vehicle interior and the safety of driving. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides a water tank under the vehicle, which solves the water problem while avoiding occupying practical space or raising the vehicle's center of gravity.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following solution:

[0007] This utility model provides a water tank under a vehicle, including a water tank body, with at least two lifting lugs arranged around the water tank body, the lifting lugs being detachably connected to the vehicle under structure; a water inlet is provided at the upper part of the water tank body, and a water outlet is provided at the lower part of the water tank body.

[0008] Optionally, an exhaust port is provided on the top of the water tank body.

[0009] Optionally, a water level measuring port is provided on the top of the water tank body.

[0010] Optionally, a water pump mounting base is provided on the water tank body, and the water pump mounting base is used to install a water pump.

[0011] Optionally, the water tank body is provided with a reinforcing hook plate, the reinforcing hook plate including a first connecting part, the first connecting part being connected to the outer side wall of the water tank body, the end of the first connecting part extending to the bottom edge of the water tank body and extending towards the bottom surface of the water tank body to form a second connecting part, the first connecting part and the second connecting part being fixedly connected, and the second connecting part being connected to the bottom surface of the water tank body.

[0012] Optionally, at least one baffle plate is provided inside the water tank body.

[0013] Optionally, the wave deflector is arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

[0014] Optionally, the water tank body is provided with a heating port.

[0015] Optionally, the water tank body is provided with a reserved opening.

[0016] This utility model also provides a vehicle, including the aforementioned under-vehicle water tank.

[0017] The present invention achieves the following technical advantages over the prior art:

[0018] When using the under-vehicle water tank provided by this utility model, the water tank body is fixed to the bottom of the vehicle by means of lifting lugs, completely avoiding practical spaces such as the trunk and seat gaps inside the vehicle. This solves the problem of traditional additional water tanks occupying space inside the vehicle and causing a cramped environment, ensuring the comfort of the vehicle's storage and activity space. With the water tank installed under the vehicle, even when full of water, the overall weight distribution is still concentrated in the lower part of the vehicle, without raising the vehicle's center of gravity. This effectively avoids the safety hazard of placing a water tank on the roof, which can easily disrupt the driving balance on mountain roads, turns, or bumpy sections, ensuring the vehicle's handling stability. The upper water inlet facilitates quick water replenishment, and the lower water outlet allows water to flow out naturally without complicated operations. It perfectly adapts to the water needs in camping scenarios, achieving the dual goals of solving the water problem and ensuring space and safety. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a vehicle under-floor water tank, including a water tank body, with at least two lifting lugs arranged around the water tank body, the lifting lugs being detachably connected to the vehicle under-floor structure; a water inlet 10 is provided at the upper part of the water tank body, and a water outlet 6 is provided at the lower part of the water tank body.

[0028] The water tank is secured to the bottom of the vehicle using lifting lugs, completely avoiding practical spaces such as the trunk and seat gaps. This solves the problem of traditional additional water tanks occupying interior space and causing a cramped environment, ensuring the comfort of storage and activity space inside the vehicle. With the water tank installed under the vehicle, even when full, the overall weight distribution remains concentrated in the lower part of the vehicle, preventing the center of gravity from rising. This effectively avoids the safety hazards of roof-mounted water tanks disrupting balance on mountain roads, curves, or bumpy sections, ensuring vehicle handling stability. The upper water inlet 10 facilitates quick water replenishment, while the lower water outlet 6 allows for natural water discharge without complicated operations, perfectly meeting the water needs of camping scenarios and achieving the dual goals of solving water problems while ensuring space and safety.

[0029] The shape of the water tank body is determined according to the shape and size of the space under the vehicle. The water tank body can be made by welding stainless steel plates.

[0030] A vent 2 is provided on the top of the water tank body. The vent 2 is used to balance the pressure inside the water tank body to ensure that water can be smoothly added to the water tank body or that water can be smoothly discharged from the water tank body. The vent 2 can be connected to one end of a vent pipe, and the other end of the vent pipe extends to a higher position to prevent sewage from entering the water tank body through the vent 2.

[0031] A water level measuring port 5 is installed on the top of the water tank body. An electronic level gauge is installed on the water level measuring port 5. The electronic level gauge transmits the information of the remaining water in the water tank body to the display terminal, so that users can easily check the remaining water in the water tank body.

[0032] The water tank body is equipped with a water pump mounting base 9 for mounting a water pump. The water pump inlet 10 is connected to the water outlet 6 on the water tank body, and the water pump outlet 6 is connected to one end of a water pipe. The other end of the water pipe extends to a convenient location for water use, especially above the water tank body, where a water pump needs to be installed. A switch can also be installed near the other end of the water pipe to control the start and stop of the water pump.

[0033] The water tank body is provided with a reinforcing hook plate, which includes a first connecting part. The first connecting part is connected to the outer side wall of the water tank body. The end of the first connecting part extends to the bottom edge of the water tank body and extends to the bottom surface of the water tank body to form a second connecting part. The first connecting part and the second connecting part are fixedly connected. The second connecting part is connected to the bottom surface of the water tank body.

[0034] By supporting the bottom of the water tank body with the second connecting part, the stress between the first connecting part and the outer wall of the water tank body is reduced, which can reduce the deformation of the water tank body and prevent the weld between the first connecting part and the water tank body from tearing due to the excessive weight of the water tank body and water, thus greatly improving the overall structural strength of the water tank body.

[0035] In this specific embodiment, a first lifting lug 3 is provided on one side of the water tank body, a second lifting lug 4 is provided on the side near the rear of the vehicle, and a third lifting lug 8 is provided on the other side. The second lifting lug 4 is welded and fixed to the outer wall of the water tank body by a first reinforcing hook plate 12, and the third lifting lug 8 is welded and fixed to the outer wall of the water tank body by a second reinforcing hook plate 13.

[0036] The water tank body is equipped with two baffles 14, which are arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle. The baffles 14 have multiple through holes, and the through holes on the two baffles 14 are staggered, so that the water in the water tank body can flow to any position, and prevents the water from flowing directly from one side of the water tank to the other side during vehicle turning or bumps, thereby reducing the fluctuation and impact of the liquid inside the water tank body and improving the stability of the vehicle.

[0037] The water tank body is equipped with a heating port 7. The heating port 7 is used to install an electric heating rod, which heats the water in the water tank body. This can prevent freezing and provide warm or hot water for convenient use.

[0038] The water tank body is provided with a reserved port 1. The reserved port 1 can be freely selected for its specific function according to actual needs. For example, in order to monitor the water temperature inside the water tank body, a thermocouple can be installed in the reserved port 1 to measure the water temperature.

[0039] The bottom of the water tank is also equipped with a drain port 11 for draining the water in the tank. A drain valve can be installed at the drain port 11. To drain the water, simply open the drain valve.

[0040] Example 2:

[0041] This embodiment provides a vehicle, including the undercarriage water tank as described in Embodiment 1.
