TWO WHEELED FUEL CELL VEHICLE ASSEMBLY LAYOUT

摘要

The present invention is a two-wheeled fuel cell vehicle, where a fuel cell power box (8) employing one or more metal hydride canisters (5R1, 5L1, 5R2, 5L2) for providing enhanced fuel cell vehicle range. The fuel cell power box (8) is mounted under a seat (11) of the vehicle (1). An electric hub motor (4) hub mounted to a wheel of said vehicle (1). A fuel cell stack (3) mounted on a front portion of said vehicle (1), said fuel cell stack (3) is disposed of in a first orientation adjacently to a front portion (F) of a frame (9) with a substantial gap in a longitudinal direction between the fuel cell power box (8) and the fuel cell stack (3). Four different types of fuel cell layout are proposed based on the mounting position and placement of a fuel cell stack (3).
