A fuel cell vehicle includes tanks configured to store a fuel gas to be supplied to the fuel cell, the tanks being respectively disposed in front of and behind the motor drive unit such that a longitudinal direction of each of the tanks corresponds to a width direction of the fuel cell vehicle. The tanks are disposed such that respective end portions of the tanks on a side on which the high-voltage wiring portion is positioned are outside the high-voltage wiring portion in the width direction of the fuel cell vehicle and the respective end portions of tanks overlap a tire-wheel assembly in a front-rear direction of the fuel cell vehicle.

A fuel cell vehicle includes a fuel cell stack, a tank, a discharge flow path discharging a fluid discharged from the fuel cell stack, a muffler attached to the discharge flow paths, and a vehicle member defining a first chamber and a second chamber, the first chamber accommodating the fuel cell stack and the second chamber being disposed behind the first chamber and accommodating the tank and the muffler. The second chamber is also provided with a front portion and a rear portion continuous with the front portion, the rear portion being shorter than the front portion in average length in a vehicle width direction. The muffler is disposed between the tank and one of a pair of side wall portions defining side walls of the front portion in the vehicle width direction.

There is provided a fuel cell mounting structure including: a pair of left and right vibration-proofing members that are provided due to front side joining portions and rear side joining portions being mounted to suspension members; and a fuel cell that is supported at least by the pair of left and right vibration-proofing members, and is disposed at vehicle body upper sides of the suspension members, wherein one of the front side joining portions and the rear side joining portions are supported so as to be rotatable with a vehicle transverse direction being an axis of rotation, and another of the front side joining portions and the rear side joining portions are structured so as to break away from the suspension members, due to weak portions breaking at a time when load is inputted to the fuel cell from a vehicle body longitudinal direction.

A fuel cell vehicle comprises a fuel cell module, a vehicle body frame, a plurality of mounting portions and a tank. A front portion of the vehicle body frame that a front side mounting portion is attached to is configured to be movable upward in a vehicle height direction when a load is applied in the vehicle longitudinal direction. A rear side mounting portion configured to mount a rear side of the fuel cell module in the vehicle longitudinal direction to the vehicle body frame is configured to be more easily breakable, compared with the front side mounting portion, when the load is applied in the vehicle longitudinal direction.

A mobile energy storage apparatus comprised of: a. at least one variable energy control device which converts DC to DC, AC to DC and DC to AC and b. at least one energy storage device (such as a battery) and c. a means to adjust said at least one variable energy control device to various electrical output powers and d. a means to connect said mobile energy storage apparatus to an EV (electric vehicle) or other device electrically and mechanically to enable transferring energy even when in motion and e. optionally a means for attaching various covers to said mobile energy storage apparatus to suit various applications. The mobile energy storage apparatus allows the transfer of energy to or from: an EV, a building or any other electrical facility or device and can be configured with built-in or attached to various power sources.

An apparatus for reducing hydrogen concentration in exhaust gas of an exhaust system of a fuel cell vehicle includes a bumper cover disposed at a rear portion of the fuel cell vehicle, the bumper cover forming a streamlined exterior surface, and an exhaust gas guiding unit interconnecting the exhaust system and the bumper cover, the exhaust gas guiding unit guiding the exhaust gas to the streamlined exterior surface of the bumper cover.

The disclosure provides a fuel cell system for a vehicle. The fuel cell system includes a fuel cell stack disposed in a front room of a vehicle; and a converter assembly. The converter assembly disposed above or below the fuel cell stack includes: a converter; a first connector section; and a second connector section. The second connector section connects the converter assembly and a second electrical instrument which uses a high voltage. The second connector section is disposed behind the first connector section in a front-rear direction of the vehicle, and when the first connector section and the second connector section are seen from the front-rear direction of the vehicle, the first connector section and at least a portion of the second connector section are overlapped each other.

A fuel cell system includes: a first temperature sensor that measures the temperature of cooling water on the side of a cooling water outlet of a fuel cell; a second temperature sensor that measures the temperature of the cooling water on the side of a cooling water inlet of a water heater for heating the cooling water; a third temperature sensor that measures the temperature of the cooling water on the side of a cooling water outlet of the water heater; a cooling water pump that circulates the cooling water; and a control device. The control device is configured to determine that there is a cooling water leakage when the condition: measurement temperature T1 measured by the first temperature sensormeasurement temperature T2 measured by the second temperature sensor or the condition no temperature difference T between measurement temperature T2 and measurement temperature T3 measured by the third temperature sensor is met.

Provided is a fuel cell system which includes a fuel cell that generates electric power by electrochemical reaction between hydrogen gas and oxidizing gas, and a fuel cell case that houses the fuel cell. A more fragile portion compared to the rest of the fuel cell case in terms of strength is provided in the fuel cell case along an outline of a given shape so that a depressurizing opening having the given shape is formed when internal pressure of the fuel cell case becomes higher than given pressure.

A high-pressure gas tank includes: a tank body section; a base attached to an opening of the tank body section; a valve attached to an opening of the base so as to open and close a gas supply-discharge port of the tank body section, a part of the valve being inserted in the base, and the valve having a contact surface that contacts a seat surface as a surface of an end of the base, the surface of the end of the base forming the opening of the base; and a seal member arranged between an outer peripheral surface of a portion of the valve that is inserted in the opening of the base and an inner peripheral surface of the base. A slit for forming a communication hole communicating between outside of the high-pressure gas tank and a space between the base and valve is provided.
