Title:
FUEL TANK FIXING PART STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/179299
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] When a tank stay for mounting a rear portion of a fuel tank to a vehicle body is to be provided, if the tank stay is welded only to a baseplate, great stress is easily concentrated on this welded part, and thus, the present invention addresses the problem of enabling dispersion of stress that is applied to the tank stay. [Solution] To a rear portion of a flangeless fuel tank 13, a first stay 20 extending rearward from an outer plate 13a, and a second stay 21 extending rearward from a baseplate 13b, are provided. Rear portions respectively of the first stay 20 and the second stay 21 are superposed on each other so as to be integrated with each other, thereby obtaining a frame-side fixing part 15a. In this state, mounting to the frame side of a vehicle body is performed by means of a bolt 16 at a single point. A front portion 30 of the first stay 20 is mounted to the back surface of the outer plate 13a through welding, and a front portion 40 of the second stay 21 is mounted to the bottom surface of the baseplate 13b through welding. The weight applied from the fuel tank 13 to a tank stay 15 is dispersed to the first stay 20 and the second stay 21, whereby the concentration of stress that is applied to a part at which the tank stay 15 is mounted to the fuel tank 13, is mitigated.
