Frame Vehicle Battery Mounting With Detachable Side Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing battery mounting structures in frame vehicles require the detachment of the vehicle body from the frame to access and maintain the battery, complicating the maintenance process.
Innovation Solution
A battery mounting structure that positions the battery on the upper side of the frame, allowing access and maintenance without detaching the vehicle body from the frame, by using a cover member that is detachable from the vehicle body, facilitating the removal and insertion of the battery from the outside in the vehicle width direction or rear side.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Length of stationary object
If the battery is disposed on the upper side of the frame to maintain ground clearance, then the ground clearance is improved, but the vehicle body must be detached to access the battery for maintenance
Solution Approach 1:
The vehicle body is segmented into detachable cover members (front cover and rear cover) that can be separated from the main vehicle body structure. This allows access to the battery without detaching the entire vehicle body from the frame, resolving the contradiction between maintaining ground clearance and enabling easy battery maintenance.
Solution Approach 2:
The cover members are extracted as separate detachable components from the vehicle body structure. By removing only these specific covering parts rather than the entire vehicle body, the battery becomes accessible while the vehicle body remains mounted on the frame, thus maintaining ground clearance while enabling maintenance access.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the vehicle body is attached on the upper side of the frame, then the structural integrity is maintained, but the battery cannot be accessed without detaching the vehicle body
Solution Approach 1:
The vehicle body is divided into a main structure that remains attached to the frame and detachable cover members that provide access to the battery. This segmentation allows the vehicle body to maintain its stable attachment while enabling easy battery repair through cover removal only.
Solution Approach 2:
The cover members have the specific local quality of being detachable, while the rest of the vehicle body maintains its stable attached state. This localized detachability provides the necessary access for battery maintenance without compromising the overall structural integrity and stable attachment of the vehicle body to the frame.

AI summary
The battery mounting structure of the frame vehicle includes a pair of left and right side rails extending in the vehicle front-rear direction and a plurality of cross members extending in the vehicle width direction and connecting the side rails, and includes a frame to which the vehicle body is attached, a battery disposed on the vehicle upper side of the frame, and a cover member disposed on the vehicle width direction outer side of the battery and configured to be detachable from the vehicle body.
