Vehicle Rear Body Structure - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17947378 titled 'Vehicle Rear Body Structure
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an embodiment of a vehicle rear body structure that includes a partition panel, a first mount assembly, and a second mount assembly.
- The partition panel is connected to a boundary point between the vehicle body intermediate portion and the vehicle body rear portion.
- The first mount assembly is connected to the partition panel and is designed to support a hydrogen tank.
- The second mount assembly is connected to a rear cross member in the vehicle body rear portion and is designed to support the hydrogen tank at a lower position than the first mount assembly.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This vehicle rear body structure can be applied to hydrogen-powered vehicles that require a secure and efficient mounting system for the hydrogen tank.
- It can be used in various types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, or buses, that utilize hydrogen as a fuel source.
Problems solved by this technology:
- The partition panel helps to separate the vehicle body intermediate portion from the vehicle body rear portion, providing a clear boundary for mounting the hydrogen tank.
- The first mount assembly and the second mount assembly ensure a stable and secure support system for the hydrogen tank, reducing the risk of damage or leakage.
Benefits of this technology:
- By utilizing the partition panel and the two mount assemblies, the vehicle rear body structure provides a robust and reliable mounting solution for the hydrogen tank.
- The lower position of the second mount assembly helps to lower the center of gravity of the hydrogen tank, improving the overall stability and handling of the vehicle.
- This structure allows for efficient use of space and weight distribution, optimizing the vehicle's performance and fuel efficiency.
