Work vehicle
A work vehicle including a tank (31,131) formed so as to extend from a rear part of a vehicle body toward a center, wherein the tank includes: a first storage tank (32) located on the rear side of the vehicle body, and stores stored fluid (9); a second storage tank (34) located on a side close to the center in the front-rear direction of the vehicle body, and stores the fluid; a partition part (36) that separates the first storage tank and the second storage tank; a discharge member (49) that has a discharge opening (49a) extending and opened inside the second storage tank, and discharges, from the second storage tank, the fluid stored in the second storage tank; and a hollow tube member (60) that has a first end communicated with the first storage tank through the partition part so as to enable the stored fluid to flow, and a second end having a hollow tube opening (62) extending and opened toward the center of the vehicle body inside the second storage tank, wherein the hollow tube opening of the hollow tube member is located on the central side of the vehicle body with respect to the discharge opening of the discharge member.
Open cabin electric wheeled vehicle
An open cabin electric wheeled vehicle includes a large-capacity driving battery having a volume energy density higher than the volume energy density of a lead storage battery, the large-capacity driving battery being configured to supply electric power to a driving electric motor. The vehicle also includes a fuel-type electric power generation apparatus that generates electric power using a fuel. As seen from a leftward direction or a rightward direction, between the large-capacity driving battery and the fuel-type electric power generation apparatus, a recess overlaps with a passage region which allows people or baggage to pass through of an entrance and exit opening portion having no door, so that a bottom end of a front wall portion, a bottom end of a rear wall portion, and a bottom portion are located further downward than a top end of the large-capacity driving battery which has a volume energy density higher than the volume energy density of a lead storage battery, and a top end of the fuel-type electric power generation apparatus.
Working Vehicle
The present disclosure relates to a hydrogen powered working vehicle. Advantageously, the hydrogen-powered working vehicle of the present disclosure is designed to enable existing chassis designs for diesel-powered working vehicles to be re-purposed for use in hydrogen powered working vehicles while still affording adequate lateral airflow and protection to components of the hydrogen powered working vehicle.
MACHINE
The present invention relates to a machine, in particular wheel loader, with a cabin for the operator of the machine and with an engine compartment arranged behind the cabin, wherein the machine has a drive, which is operable using hydrogen or using energy obtained from hydrogen and wherein one or more tanks are present for receiving hydrogen, wherein the tank or tanks is/are arranged between the cabin and the rear of the machine in a hydrogen fuel system.
UTV fuel tank with storage
A UTV spare fuel tank is provided. The spare fuel tank includes a main body and a lid coupled to the main body. The main body may include a storage compartment and a fueling compartment accessible by opening the lid. The spare fuel tank include a fuel reservoir formed between an outer wall and an inner wall of the main body. The outer wall forms the outer dimension of the main body and the inner wall forms the storage compartment and the fueling compartment. The spare fuel tank may also include brackets and lift members coupled to the main body and extending below a bottom surface of the main body to lift the main body off of a storage shelf to form a gap between the bottom surface and the storage shelf.
Fuel tank structure of all-terrain vehicle
A fuel tank structure of an all-terrain vehicle is provided. The all-terrain vehicle includes a vehicle frame unit, a fuel tank arranged on the vehicle frame unit, a seat cushion arranged on the vehicle frame unit, a pair of rear wheels rotatably mounted to a rear section of the vehicle frame unit, and a power unit arranged on the vehicle frame unit. The power unit is connected to an exhaust unit. The vehicle frame unit includes a rear carrier rack and a rear ancillary tube assembly. The fuel tank is arranged rearwardly of the power unit and located below the rear carrier rack. The fuel tank includes a body portion, which is formed with a lower buffering fuel accommodation extension section extending in a direction toward a lower side of the vehicle body, so as to increase the weight of the fuel tank.
Stackable container assembly
A container including a container body and a fixture assembly configured for receiving an accessory container, the bottom surface of the container body being configured for connecting the container to a vehicle, the bottom surface including: a tongue attached to the bottom surface at a first end portion of the bottom surface, the tongue extending from the bottom surface, at least a portion of the tongue extending parallel to the bottom surface, the tongue being positioned on a first side of the container body, and an anchor attached to the bottom surface at a second end portion of the bottom surface opposite the first end portion, the anchor being positioned on a second side of the container body, the second side of the container body being oppositely disposed to the first side of the container body, the anchor including at least one anchor lock.
Off-highway recreational vehicle
A recreational off-highway vehicle includes side-by-side passenger and driver seats held within a chassis that is approximately 50 inches wide. The seats sit low in the chassis and are covered by a roll cage. Grab handles are positioned on the sides of the passenger seat. Select large round tubing protects the vehicle, while rectangular tubing frames the portions of the vehicle beneath body panels. The vehicle is powered by an engine rearward of the seats that is connected to a transaxle. The engine and transaxle are isolation mounted together with a portion of the air intake assembly. The vehicle is suited for rough terrain travel.
Repowering system for vehicles and vessels
A system for retaining a plurality of compressed gas cannisters for fueling a vehicle is provided, the system comprising: a base which includes: a plate including a distal end and a proximal end; a base engagement member at the distal end of the plate; and a first mating member proximate the proximal end; a cassette which includes: a top; a first side; a second side; a front; a back; a bottom to define an interior, the interior for housing the plurality of compressed gas cannisters; at least one fork pocket mounted on one of the top, the bottom or the back, the fork pocket extending from a distal end a distance; a plurality of gas cannister apertures extending between the interior and an ambient environment, wherein the bottom includes a bottom engagement member which extends outward beyond the first side at the distal end; a locking mechanism proximate the distal end; and a second mating member proximate a proximal end, wherein the first mating member and the second mating member are in pivotal engagement in use.
ALTERNATIVE FUEL SYSTEM
An apparatus and a method are provided for an alternative fuel system, comprising a plurality of fuel tank assemblies interconnected with fuel lines; the plurality of fuel tank assemblies comprising a CNG fuel tank and a fuel tank shield; wherein a first and second fuel tank assembly is disposed immediately in front of a rear wheel assembly, and a third fuel tank assembly is disposed immediately behind the rear wheel assembly.
