Title:
GASEOUS FUEL TANK LOADED VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/073192
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A gaseous fuel tank loaded vehicle, wherein hydrogen leaked from a hydrogen bombe (18) goes up in the space where the bombe is held since it has a specific gravity lower than that of air and reaches a ventilation port (40) composed of slits formed in the upper surface of a roof cover (30), wherein since the ventilation port (40) is formed directly above the hydrogen bombe (18), the above leaked hydrogen can reach the ventilation port (40) by the transfer being shorter compared to that in the case where the ventilation port is provided in a position being off from that directly above the hydrogen bombe, wherein since a plurality of ventilation ports (40) are provided, the leaked hydrogen can reach a ventilation port (40) being nearest located, and wherein the hydrogen gas having reached the ventilation port (40) passes through the ventilation port (40) in the upper direction and flows to the outside thereof.
