In order to limit entry of a fuel cell stack into a passenger compartment by a simple structure, the fuel cell stack is accommodated in an accommodating compartment formed at a rear of a passenger compartment. A force receiving member is arranged forward with respect to the fuel cell stack and below the fuel cell stack so that rearward force acts on the force receiving member at the time of vehicle collision. When the rearward force acting on the force receiving member due to vehicle collision is larger than a predetermined upper limit value, the rearward force is converted into upward force, and the upward force is transmitted to a forward bottom surface of the fuel cell stack, whereby a forward end part of the fuel cell stack is lifted up with respect to a rearward end part of the fuel cell stack upon vehicle collision.

Personal Transportation Vehicle
20180273117 · 2018-09-27 ·

A personal transportation vehicle. The personal transportation vehicle provides an outer and inner shell having a rotor assembly supported between. The inner shell defines a compartment, which in turn houses an input system that controls an electromagnetic drive system. The electromagnetic drive system includes electromagnets that can generate a magnetic field. A sensor detects motion of the rotor assembly and stabilizes the inner shell. A controller controls states of each electromagnet depending on a position of the rotor assembly and an input from the input system. The electromagnets of the electromagnetic drive system cooperatively cause the personal transportation vehicle to move.
