Vehicle fuel cell stack frame and protruding portions
There is provided a fuel cell vehicle, including a high voltage system disposed in a front compartment of the vehicle, and a first protruding portion that protrudes in a left-right direction of the vehicle toward a vehicle body of the vehicle further than a portion of the high voltage system that is closest to the vehicle body, and is fixed to the high voltage system, in which, when the vehicle is placed on a horizontal plane, the first protruding portion is arranged such that a position of a first most-protruded portion of the first protruding portion that protrudes most toward the vehicle body in a height direction is located at the same position or higher than a center of gravity of the high voltage system.

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.

OPEN CABIN VEHICLE
An open cabin vehicle is equipped with a fuel cell unit having a hydrogen tank for storing hydrogen to be used as fuel and has a simple structure. An upper end of each of a hydrogen tank, a fuel cell stack, and a hydrogen supply pipe is located farther upward than a floor in a state in which the hydrogen tank, the fuel cell stack, and the hydrogen supply pipe are disposed in a fuel-cell-unit arrangement space which is provided below a space being present farther backward than at least a part of the floor in a vehicle-body inner space, and which borders the vehicle-body inner space, thereby being connected to a vehicle-body outer space which is a space around the open cabin vehicle, via the vehicle-body inner space.

HIGH PRESSURE CONTAINER SYSTEM AND FUEL CELL VEHICLE
A high pressure container system is equipped with an upstream side pressure sensor that measures an internal pressure of high pressure containers upstream of a pressure regulating valve, a plurality of downstream side pressure sensors that measure the pressure of the fluid downstream of the pressure regulating valve, and a control device. At a normal time of the downstream side pressure sensors, a control device monitors the internal pressure of the high pressure containers on the basis of the measured values of the downstream side pressure sensors, and at an abnormal time when any one of the downstream side pressure sensors is abnormal, the control device monitors the internal pressure of the high pressure containers on the basis of the measured values of the downstream side pressure sensors, and the measured value of the upstream side pressure sensor.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE
