FUEL SYSTEM MOUNTABLE TO A VEHICLE FRAME

A fuel system is provided that includes a fuel system frame and in some cases access steps. The frame can be mounted to a vehicle frame rail. Bracket assemblies can be coupled to the fuel system frame at a plurality of positions. The fuel tank can be mounted at neck portions thereof and can be supported on the frame rail between the neck portion, e.g., spaced a distance from the neck portions in a longitudinal direction of the fuel system. The access steps can be non-rectangular to provide a wide stepping portion even if the fuel system includes large tanks. The steps can be directly supported by an outside surface of the tank.

Object positioning method

A fuel tank having one or more support domes configured to engage with, and assist in positioning, a fuel tank insert.

Fuel tank

A first gap to be eliminated at the time of a compressive deformation of a fuel-tank main body is formed between a lower-side reinforcing member and an upper-side reinforcing member in a fuel-tank main body. A second gap to be eliminated at the time of an expansion deformation of the fuel-tank main body is formed between an opposed member of the lower-side reinforcing member and the upper-side reinforcing member.

Multi-boss flange
11396229 · 2022-07-26 ·

The present invention relates to a flange that includes a base region, a first raised region, a second raised region, a first sloped region between the base region and the first raised region, and a second sloped region between the base region and the second raised regions, wherein the first and second sloped regions extend through a gap region between the first and second raised regions, and wherein the first and second sloped regions define multiple concave and convex regions in multiple planes of the flange so as to reduce stress within the flange.
