Description

本発明は、複数の高圧ガス容器を固定する高圧ガス容器の固定構造、および、水素が充填された複数の高圧ガス容器を搭載して移送等する水素トレーラに関するものである。 The present invention relates to a high-pressure gas container fixing structure for fixing a plurality of high-pressure gas containers, and a hydrogen trailer for mounting and transferring a plurality of hydrogen-filled high-pressure gas containers.

水素自動車(燃料電池自動車を含む)が普及すると、それらに水素を供給するための水素ステーションを各地に設ける必要が生じる。各地の水素ステーションに水素を出荷するためには、水素を陸上輸送するに適した水素トレーラが必要になる。なお、水素トレーラは、水素ステーションまで水素を運ぶために使用されるだけでなく、水素ステーションに留置され、水素自動車への供給源としても使用され得るものである。 As hydrogen vehicles (including fuel cell vehicles) become widespread, it will be necessary to provide hydrogen stations for supplying hydrogen to them. In order to ship hydrogen to hydrogen stations in various places, a hydrogen trailer suitable for land transportation of hydrogen is required. It should be noted that the hydrogen trailer is not only used for transporting hydrogen to the hydrogen station, but can also be stored at the hydrogen station and used as a supply source for the hydrogen vehicle.

水素トレーラ等として使用できる車両の例は、下記の特許文献1に記載されている。同文献1に記載された車両は、荷台の上に立体的な架台が載せられ、その架台上に複数本の高圧ガス容器が搭載されている。高圧ガス容器のそれぞれは、円筒状の胴部(容器本体)の両端(ガスの供給口となる元弁側とその反対側)にあるネック部を、上記架台の前後各位置に設けられた拘束部材により固定されている。その拘束部材は、高圧ガス容器を水平に複数本並べて固定し、各容器の真上に他の容器を配置する形態で上下方向に複数段積み上げている。 An example of a vehicle that can be used as a hydrogen trailer or the like is described in Patent Document 1 below. The vehicle described in the document 1 has a three-dimensional pedestal mounted on a loading platform and a plurality of high-pressure gas containers mounted on the pedestal. In each of the high-pressure gas containers, the neck parts at both ends (the main valve side serving as a gas supply port and the opposite side) of the cylindrical body part (container body) are restrained at the front and rear positions of the gantry. It is fixed by a member. A plurality of high-pressure gas containers are horizontally arranged and fixed to the restraining member, and a plurality of high-pressure gas containers are vertically stacked in a form in which another container is arranged right above each container.

高圧ガス容器の両端のネック部を固定する拘束部材の例は、特許文献2にも記載されている。同文献2に示された拘束部材の使用状況を図10に示す。高圧ガス容器の円筒状の胴部の端にある小径のネック部を拘束部材で拘束することにより固定している。拘束部材は、十分な厚みを有する四角形の板と、その板の厚みの内側に取り付けられたU字形のボルト等からなる。そのボルトを、ネック部の外周にある溝に掛けた状態で、上記四角形の板に取り付けている。板は、縦・横の各寸法が高圧ガス容器の胴部の直径よりも大きいため、その板を左右に並べて固定することにより、複数の高圧ガス容器を互いに接触させることなく固定配置できるわけである。 An example of the restraint member that fixes the neck portions at both ends of the high-pressure gas container is also described in Patent Document 2. FIG. 10 shows a usage state of the restraint member shown in Document 2. The small diameter neck portion at the end of the cylindrical body portion of the high-pressure gas container is fixed by restraining it with a restraining member. The restraint member is composed of a square plate having a sufficient thickness and a U-shaped bolt attached inside the thickness of the plate. The bolt is attached to the square plate while being hooked in the groove on the outer circumference of the neck portion. Since the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the plate are larger than the diameter of the body of the high-pressure gas container, the plates can be fixed side by side so that multiple high-pressure gas containers can be fixed without contacting each other. is there.

特許文献1に記載のようなトレーラに高圧ガス容器を搭載する場合等には、複数の容器をコンパクトに配置でき、かつ安定的に固定できることが望ましい。コンパクトに配置できるなら、限られたスペース内に多めの高圧ガス容器を設置でき、トレーラにおいては台車を小型化または低重心化できることになる。また、安定的に固定することが容易であるなら、容器を支持するための構造を簡素化することができる。 When a high-pressure gas container is mounted on a trailer as described in Patent Document 1, it is desirable that a plurality of containers can be compactly arranged and stably fixed. If it can be arranged compactly, a large number of high-pressure gas containers can be installed in a limited space, and in the trailer, the truck can be downsized or the center of gravity can be lowered. Further, if stable fixing is easy, the structure for supporting the container can be simplified.

こうした点に関し、特許文献1・2に記載された高圧ガス容器の固定構造には、なおも改善の余地がある。同文献1の例では、高圧ガス容器の真上に他の高圧ガス容器を配置する構造であるため、上下方向に複数段の容器を配置するとき、1段あたりに、各容器の直径と容器同士の接触を避けるための隙間との合計の高さ寸法が必要不可欠となり、搭載高さが増加しがちである。同文献2の例も、拘束部材である板の上に他の板(拘束部材)を載せることによって上下に複数段の高圧ガス容器を配置することになるため、搭載高さが増すことについて同文献1の場合と同じである。 In this regard, there is still room for improvement in the fixing structure of the high-pressure gas container described in Patent Documents 1 and 2. In the example of the document 1, since another high-pressure gas container is arranged directly above the high-pressure gas container, when arranging a plurality of containers in the vertical direction, the diameter of each container and the container The total height dimension of the clearance to avoid mutual contact becomes indispensable, and the mounting height tends to increase. Also in the example of the document 2, since another plate (constraint member) is placed on the plate which is the restraint member to arrange the high-pressure gas containers in a plurality of stages vertically, the mounting height is increased. This is the same as the case of Document 1.

請求項に係る発明は、複数の高圧ガス容器を、限られたスペース内にコンパクトに配置し安定的に固定するうえで有利な高圧ガス容器の固定構造、およびそのような固定構造を有する好ましい水素トレーラを提供するものである。 The invention according to the claims has a structure for fixing a high-pressure gas container, which is advantageous in compactly arranging a plurality of high-pressure gas containers compactly in a limited space and stably fixing it, and a preferable hydrogen having such a fixing structure It provides a trailer.

発明による高圧ガス容器の固定構造は、筒状の胴部を有する複数の高圧ガス容器を固定する構造であって、対向する平行な2辺間の距離が上記胴部の直径以上である正六角形状の外形を有する拘束部材が各高圧ガス容器に嵌め付けられ、その拘束部材が、他の同様の拘束部材または固定用フレームと結合されていることを特徴とする。
外形が正六角形状(正六角形または略正六角形)である上記の拘束部材は、たとえば図1・図2に示す拘束部材10のようなもので、筒状の胴部を有する高圧ガス容器1に嵌め付けて、図3のように他の拘束部材10と結合したり図4に示す固定用フレーム30に結合したりして使用される。
上記のような拘束部材を各高圧ガス容器(のいずれかの部分。たとえば円筒状の胴部またはその両端部にある小径のネック部)の外側に嵌め付けると、図3のように複数の高圧ガス容器を互いに接触しないように配置するとき、容器中心線の高さ方向の間隔(1段あたりの高さ方向寸法)を各容器の直径未満に抑えることができる。すなわち図9(a)に示すとおり、発明に基づく拘束部材10を使用するとき、容器1の中心線間の高さ方向の間隔Dを容器1(の胴部1a)の直径以下にすることができる。従来(図9(b))のように1つの容器1の真上に他の容器1を配置するなら、容器1の高さ方向の間隔D’は必ず容器1の直径以上になるため、拘束部材10の使用によって容器1のコンパクトな配置が可能になる。なお、六角形の向きを図9(a)や図3等の例から90°変更して拘束部材10を使用する場合には、左右に隣り合う列の容器中心線の間隔を各容器の直径未満に抑えることができる。
上下方向または左右方向の間隔を上記のように狭めることができると、限られたスペース内に多数の高圧ガス容器を効果的に設置することができる。水素トレーラのような走行車両に多数の高圧ガス容器を搭載する場合は、車両を小型化することや、容器を含む全体を低重心化して走行安全性を増すことにもつながる。水素トレーラ上でなく他の物または区域に高圧ガス容器を設置する場合においても、発明の固定構造によって多数の容器のコンパクトな配置が可能になる。
The fixing structure for a high-pressure gas container according to the invention is a structure for fixing a plurality of high-pressure gas containers having a tubular body, and a regular hexagon in which the distance between two parallel parallel sides is equal to or larger than the diameter of the body. It is characterized in that a restraint member having a contoured outer shape is fitted to each high-pressure gas container, and the restraint member is connected to another similar restraint member or a fixing frame.
The constraining member whose outer shape is a regular hexagon (regular hexagon or substantially regular hexagon) is, for example, the constraining member 10 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and is used in the high-pressure gas container 1 having a tubular body. It is used by being fitted and connected to another restraint member 10 as shown in FIG. 3 or a fixing frame 30 shown in FIG.
When the above-mentioned restraint member is fitted to the outside of each high-pressure gas container (any one of them, for example, the cylindrical body or the small-diameter necks at both ends thereof), a plurality of high-pressure gas is supplied as shown in FIG. When arranging the gas containers so that they do not contact each other, it is possible to keep the distance between the center lines of the containers in the height direction (dimension in the height direction per step) below the diameter of each container. That is, as shown in FIG. 9( a ), when the restraint member 10 according to the invention is used, the distance D in the height direction between the center lines of the container 1 can be set to be equal to or smaller than the diameter of (the body portion 1 a of) the container 1. it can. If another container 1 is arranged directly above one container 1 as in the conventional case (FIG. 9(b)), the distance D′ in the height direction of the container 1 is always equal to or larger than the diameter of the container 1, so that the restraint is performed. The use of the member 10 allows a compact arrangement of the container 1. When the constraining member 10 is used by changing the orientation of the hexagons by 90° from the example of FIG. 9(a), FIG. 3 or the like, the distance between the center lines of the adjacent containers on the left and right is the diameter of each container. Can be kept below.
If the space in the up-down direction or the left-right direction can be narrowed as described above, a large number of high-pressure gas containers can be effectively installed in a limited space. When a large number of high-pressure gas containers are mounted on a traveling vehicle such as a hydrogen trailer, this leads to downsizing of the vehicle and lowering the center of gravity of the whole of the container to increase traveling safety. Even when the high-pressure gas container is installed on another object or area instead of on the hydrogen trailer, the fixing structure of the invention enables a compact arrangement of a large number of containers.

上記の固定構造において、とくに、上記各高圧ガス容器が、筒状の胴部の端部に当該胴部よりも小径のネック部を有するものであり、上記拘束部材が当該ネック部に嵌め付けられるものであると好ましい。
胴部よりも小径であるネック部の方が、上記拘束部材を嵌め付けて当該高圧ガス容器を拘束することが容易である。特許文献2(図10)に例示されたようにU字形のボルト等を拘束用に使用するとしても、胴部を拘束する場合よりもボルトのサイズを小さくすることができ、取扱いが容易になる。また、ネック部には、拘束されるとき傷が付くことを避けるための補強構造も付設しやすい
In the above fixing structure, in particular, each of the high pressure gas containers has a neck portion having a diameter smaller than that of the body portion at the end of the tubular body portion, and the restraint member is fitted to the neck portion. It is preferable that it is one.
It is easier for the neck portion, which has a smaller diameter than the body portion, to fit the restraining member and restrain the high pressure gas container. Even if a U-shaped bolt or the like is used for restraint as exemplified in Patent Document 2 (FIG. 10), the size of the bolt can be made smaller than in the case of restraining the body portion, and the handling becomes easy. .. In addition, it is easy to attach a reinforcement structure to the neck to prevent it from being scratched when restrained.

また、上記拘束部材の外形(正六角形状)をなす6辺の各周縁部に、上記他の拘束部材または上記固定用フレームとの結合を可能にする結合部品または結合孔が設けられていると好ましい。たとえば、図1(a)に示すように、六角形の各辺にボルト用の結合孔11aを設けておくとよい。
拘束部材の六角形の各辺に、上記のように結合部品や結合孔が設けられていると、その拘束部材を、他の拘束部材や固定用フレームと結合することが容易になる。たとえば、図1(a)の結合孔11aを利用し、図3のように隣接する拘束部材10との間にボルト11bを通すなどすると、複数本の高圧ガス容器を左右・上下に配置して連結することができる。また、他の拘束部材10と隣接していない部分の結合孔11aを利用して、図6のように高圧ガス容器を固定用フレーム30に連結することもできる。
In addition, a connecting component or a connecting hole that enables connection with the other restraint member or the fixing frame is provided on each of the peripheral portions of the six sides forming the outer shape (regular hexagonal shape) of the restraint member. preferable. For example, as shown in FIG. 1A, it is preferable to provide a bolt coupling hole 11a on each side of the hexagon.
When the connecting parts and the connecting holes are provided on each side of the hexagonal shape of the restraint member as described above, the restraint member can be easily joined to another restraint member or the fixing frame. For example, by using the coupling hole 11a of FIG. 1(a) and inserting a bolt 11b between the adjacent restraining members 10 as shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of high-pressure gas containers are arranged vertically and horizontally. Can be connected. Further, the high pressure gas container can be connected to the fixing frame 30 as shown in FIG. 6 by utilizing the coupling hole 11a at a portion which is not adjacent to the other restraint member 10.

上記各高圧ガス容器が、筒状の胴部の端部に当該胴部よりも小径のネック部を有するものであるとき、上記拘束部材が、六角形断面を有する短筒状の外周枠と、その外周枠の内側に固定されたパネルと、上記パネルに取り付けられるとともに各高圧ガス容器の上記ネック部に装着されるブラケットとを有するものであると好ましい。
図1等に示す拘束部材10はその一例であり、六角形断面を有する短筒状の外周枠11と、その内側に固定されたパネル12と、パネル12に取り付けられるとともに各高圧ガス容器1のネック部1bに装着されるブラケット13とを有している。
そのような拘束部材は、鋼板など市販の金属材を利用した軽量な部材として安価に構成することができる。また、パネルに対し溶接や締結具によって取り付けられたブラケットに、特許文献2にも記載されたU字形ボルト等を通し、または他の締め付け用具を取り付ければ、たとえば図2の状態で高圧ガス容器のネック部を適切に拘束することができる。
When each high-pressure gas container has a neck portion having a smaller diameter than the body portion at the end of the tubular body portion, the restraint member, a short cylindrical outer peripheral frame having a hexagonal cross section, It is preferable to have a panel fixed to the inside of the outer peripheral frame and a bracket attached to the panel and attached to the neck portion of each high-pressure gas container.
The restraint member 10 shown in FIG. 1 and the like is an example thereof, and is a short cylindrical outer peripheral frame 11 having a hexagonal cross section, a panel 12 fixed to the inner side thereof, a panel 12 fixed to the panel 12, and a high pressure gas container 1 of each. It has a bracket 13 attached to the neck portion 1b.
Such a restraint member can be inexpensively configured as a lightweight member using a commercially available metal material such as a steel plate. Further, if the U-shaped bolt described in Patent Document 2 or the like is attached to the bracket attached to the panel by welding or a fastener, or another fastening tool is attached, for example, in the state of FIG. The neck can be restrained appropriately.

高圧ガス容器に嵌め付けられた上記拘束部材が、他の高圧ガス容器に嵌め付けられた他の拘束部材に対し、外形をなす上記6辺の周縁部のうちいずれかの辺同士を重ねた状態で結合されているとともに、1つまたは複数の固定用フレームに対し、他の拘束部材とは結合されていないいずれかの辺を重ねた状態で結合されているとよい。つまり、拘束部材同士が、また拘束部材といずれかの固定用フレームとが、たとえば図5・図6のように結合されるのが好ましい。
そのような状態に拘束部材が結合されると、複数の高圧ガス容器が、互いに強く連結されて安定的に固定される。拘束部材同士が結合された状態では、各高圧ガス容器に取り付けられた六角形の周縁部が、ハニカム状に、向きの異なる複数の斜面を介して互いに接触しているため、たとえば同じ高さに並んだ各段の高圧ガス容器が水平方向にずれ動いてしまう事態が発生しがたいからである。
A state in which the restraint member fitted to the high-pressure gas container is overlapped with another restraint member fitted to another high-pressure gas container such that any one of the six peripheral edges of the outer shape is overlapped. It is preferable that one side or a plurality of fixing frames is connected to the one or more fixing frames in a state in which any side that is not connected is overlapped. That is, it is preferable that the restraint members, and the restraint member and any one of the fixing frames are coupled to each other as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, for example.
When the restraint member is coupled in such a state, the plurality of high pressure gas containers are strongly connected to each other and stably fixed. In the state where the restraint members are coupled to each other, the hexagonal peripheral portions attached to each high-pressure gas container are in a honeycomb shape and are in contact with each other through a plurality of inclined surfaces having different directions, so that, for example, at the same height. This is because it is unlikely that the high-pressure gas containers in each of the arranged stages will shift horizontally.

高圧ガス容器に嵌め付けられた上記各拘束部材が、軸心を水平にして他の拘束部材および固定用フレームと結合されていて、最上部の拘束部材の上部に結合されている上部固定用フレームが吊上げ用部材を兼ねる、という構造とするのも好ましい。つまり、図5の例のように、拘束部材10(および高圧ガス容器1)の軸心を水平にして拘束部材10同士および拘束部材10と固定用フレーム30とを結合するとともに、最上部の拘束部材10の上部に、吊上げ用部材を兼ねる上部固定用フレーム40を結合するのである。
上記のようにすると、水平方向に並べて結合した各段の高圧ガス容器(図5の例では4本または5本の組)、または水平方向および上下方向に結合した全体の高圧ガス容器(図5の例では23本の組)を、上部に結合する上部固定用フレームを用いて吊り上げることが容易に行える。そのようにして高圧ガス容器を容易に吊り上げられるなら、複数の容器を連結して固定したり、その連結状態を解いたりすること作業を短時間に容易に行えることとなる。なお、吊り上げ用部材を兼ねる上部の固定用フレームには、各拘束部材の上部の各斜辺と結合される下向きの斜辺を有する結合片(図5中の符号44)を一体に設けておくのがよい。
Each of the restraint members fitted in the high-pressure gas container is joined to another restraint member and a fixing frame with the axis centered horizontally, and is joined to an upper part of the uppermost restraint member. It is also preferable that the structure also serves as a lifting member. That is, as in the example of FIG. 5, the restraint members 10 (and the high-pressure gas container 1) are made to have a horizontal axis and the restraint members 10 and the restraint members 10 and the fixing frame 30 are coupled to each other, and the uppermost restraint is performed. The upper fixing frame 40 also serving as a lifting member is coupled to the upper portion of the member 10.
With the above configuration, the high-pressure gas containers at each stage are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction (a group of four or five in the example of FIG. 5), or the entire high-pressure gas container connected in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction (FIG. 5). In this example, a set of 23) can be easily lifted by using an upper fixing frame that is connected to the upper part. If the high-pressure gas container can be easily lifted in such a manner, the work of connecting and fixing a plurality of containers and releasing the connected state can be easily performed in a short time. It should be noted that the upper fixing frame, which also serves as the lifting member, is integrally provided with a connecting piece (reference numeral 44 in FIG. 5) having downward oblique sides that are combined with the upper oblique sides of the respective restraining members. Good.

水素が充填された高圧ガス容器を複数搭載して移送する水素トレーラとしては、当該容器が、上記いずれかの固定構造を用いて複数本結合されて台車上に搭載されているものが好ましい。
そのような水素トレーラでは、複数の高圧ガス容器が、コンパクトなスペースに収められるとともに互いに強く安定的に連結されるからである。高圧ガス容器の搭載高さを抑制できるため、低重心にしてトレーラの走行を安定化させるという利点もある。
As a hydrogen trailer for loading and transferring a plurality of high-pressure gas containers filled with hydrogen, it is preferable that a plurality of the containers are connected by using any one of the fixing structures described above and are mounted on a trolley.
In such a hydrogen trailer, a plurality of high-pressure gas containers are housed in a compact space and strongly and stably connected to each other. Since the mounting height of the high-pressure gas container can be suppressed, there is also an advantage that the traveling of the trailer is stabilized by setting a low center of gravity.

発明による高圧ガス容器の固定構造によれば、複数の高圧ガス容器を配置するとき、上下方向または左右方向の間隔を狭くできて、限られたスペース内に多数の高圧ガス容器を効果的に設置することができる。拘束部材同士または拘束部材と固定用フレームとが、向きの異なる複数の斜面を介して接触する状態で結合することから、複数の高圧ガス容器が強く連結されて安定的に固定される。
発明の水素トレーラによれば、複数の高圧ガス容器が、コンパクトなスペースに収められ、互いに強く安定的に連結されて搭載される。車両を小型化しまたは低重心化する上でも有利である。
According to the fixing structure of a high pressure gas container according to the invention, when arranging a plurality of high pressure gas containers, it is possible to narrow a vertical or horizontal interval and effectively install a large number of high pressure gas containers in a limited space. can do. Since the restraint members or the restraint member and the fixing frame are coupled in a state of contacting each other through the plurality of slopes having different directions, the plurality of high-pressure gas containers are strongly connected and stably fixed.
According to the hydrogen trailer of the present invention, a plurality of high-pressure gas containers are housed in a compact space, strongly and stably connected to each other, and mounted. It is also advantageous in downsizing or lowering the center of gravity of the vehicle.

First, FIG. 1 shows a high-pressure gas container 1 and a restraint member 10 attached thereto.
The high-pressure gas container 1 is a container having a cylindrical (substantially cylindrical) body portion 1a as shown in FIG. 1B, and a neck portion 1b having a diameter smaller than that of the body portion 1a provided at both ends thereof. Therefore, the high-pressure gas is filled in the body portion 1a. The high-pressure gas container 1 is a composite container in which a fiber layer such as carbon fiber is laminated on the outside of a container made of a lightweight metal such as aluminum alloy, and hydrogen or the like can be filled inside at a pressure of 350 atm or more. A main valve (not shown) for supplying gas is provided on one of the neck portions 1b at both ends.

高圧ガス容器1のネック部1bに装着する拘束部材10は、図1(b)に示すとおり、正六角形状の横断面を有する短筒状の外周枠11と、その内側に溶接で固定されたパネル12と、パネル12の片面に溶接またはボルト等(図示省略)で取り付けられたブラケット13等で構成したものである。外周枠11とパネル12、ブラケット13は、いずれも鋼板等で形成する。たとえば外周枠11は、帯状の鋼板(帯鋼)を曲げ加工するとともに端部同士を溶接して正六角形状(角部には曲面部がある)の短筒にするとよい。外周枠11の対向する平行な2面間(外側表面間)の間隔は、容器1の胴部1aの直径よりも大きくする。また、外周枠11の各辺(六角形をなす6辺のそれぞれ)をなす周縁部には、図1(a)のとおり、結合用の通し孔11aが2個ずつ設けてある。 The restraint member 10 mounted on the neck portion 1b of the high-pressure gas container 1 is, as shown in FIG. 1(b), fixed to the inside of the outer peripheral frame 11 of a short cylinder having a regular hexagonal cross section by welding. The panel 12 and the bracket 13 or the like attached to one surface of the panel 12 by welding, bolts or the like (not shown). The outer peripheral frame 11, the panel 12, and the bracket 13 are all made of steel plate or the like. For example, the outer peripheral frame 11 may be formed by bending a strip-shaped steel plate (strip steel) and welding the ends to each other to form a regular hexagonal (a curved portion at each corner) short tube. The distance between the two parallel surfaces (outer surface) of the outer peripheral frame 11 which face each other is made larger than the diameter of the body portion 1 a of the container 1. Further, as shown in FIG. 1A, two peripheral through-holes 11a for coupling are provided in the peripheral edge portion of each side of the outer peripheral frame 11 (each of the six sides forming the hexagon).

パネル12とブラケット13とには、拘束部材10と一体にされた状態で外周枠11の中央となる箇所に、容器1のネック部1bを通すことのできる孔12aを開けている。パネル12には、容器1の胴部1a等を外側(端部側)から見ることができるように観察孔12bをも設けている。また、ブラケット13としては、十分な厚さの鋼板を使用し、その厚さ方向にU字形のボルト14を通したうえナット15でそれをブラケット13に締結できるようにしている。 The panel 12 and the bracket 13 are provided with a hole 12a through which the neck portion 1b of the container 1 can be inserted, at a central position of the outer peripheral frame 11 in a state of being integrated with the restraining member 10. The panel 12 is also provided with an observation hole 12b so that the body portion 1a and the like of the container 1 can be seen from the outside (end side). Further, as the bracket 13, a steel plate having a sufficient thickness is used, and a U-shaped bolt 14 is passed in the thickness direction thereof, and the nut 15 can be fastened to the bracket 13.

パネル12とブラケット13の中央の孔に高圧ガス容器1のネック部1bを通し、そのネック部1bにボルト14を掛けてブラケット13に通したうえ、ボルト14をナット15で固定すれば(図1(b)参照)、拘束部材10をネック部1bに嵌め付けた状態となる。図2は、そのようにして高圧ガス容器1の両端部に拘束部材10を嵌め付けた状態を示している。1本の高圧ガス容器1に嵌め付けた一対の拘束部材10については、外周枠11に角度差がなく六角形をなす各辺が同一の平面内にあるようにする。 If the neck portion 1b of the high-pressure gas container 1 is passed through the central hole of the panel 12 and the bracket 13 and the bolt 14 is hung on the neck portion 1b and passed through the bracket 13, the bolt 14 is fixed with the nut 15 (see FIG. (Refer to (b)), and the restraint member 10 will be in the state fitted in the neck part 1b. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the restraint members 10 are fitted to both ends of the high-pressure gas container 1 in this way. Regarding the pair of restraint members 10 fitted in one high-pressure gas container 1, the outer peripheral frame 11 has no angle difference and each side of the hexagon is in the same plane.

拘束部材10には、容器1のたわみ等によってネック部1bの角度が変化することに追随できるよう、球面部材を含む軸受構造を含めると好ましい。また、温度や圧力に応じて容器1の長さが変化し得ることに対応すべく、1本の容器1に使用する一対の拘束部材10のうち一方は、ネック部1bをスライド可能に支持するものとするとよい。 The restraint member 10 preferably includes a bearing structure including a spherical member so that the restraint member 10 can follow the change in the angle of the neck portion 1b due to the deflection of the container 1 or the like. Further, in order to deal with the possibility that the length of the container 1 may change depending on the temperature or the pressure, one of the pair of restraint members 10 used for one container 1 slidably supports the neck portion 1b. Good thing.

図2のように両端部に拘束部材10を嵌め付けた高圧ガス容器1は、同様にされた他の容器1との間で拘束部材10同士を結合させることにより、複数本の容器1をコンパクトに連結配置することができる。図3は、そのようにして、横並びに複数本・上下に複数段の高圧ガス容器1を、拘束部材10とともに軸心を水平にして、互いに接触しないよう平行に結合した連結体20を示している。各容器1について元弁の側が同じ向きになるように結合させるのがよい。
なお、この例では、各拘束部材10(外周枠11)の2辺が鉛直となるように配置し、左右および斜め上・斜め下に、隣接する高圧ガス容器1の拘束部材10同士を結合させている。すなわち、隣接していて互いに接しあう外周枠11の1辺同士を、各辺に設けた通し孔11aにボルト・ナット11bを装着することにより接合している。
As shown in FIG. 2, the high-pressure gas container 1 in which the restraint members 10 are fitted at both ends is made compact by connecting the restraint members 10 to each other with another similar container 1. Can be connected and arranged. FIG. 3 shows a connecting body 20 in which a plurality of high-pressure gas containers 1 are arranged side by side and in a plurality of stages above and below in parallel with each other so that the axis of the restraint member 10 is horizontal and the two are not in contact with each other. There is. It is preferable that the original valves of the respective containers 1 are connected in the same direction.
In this example, the restraint members 10 (peripheral frames 11) are arranged so that two sides are vertical, and the restraint members 10 of the adjacent high-pressure gas containers 1 are joined to the left and right and diagonally above and diagonally below. ing. That is, one side of the outer peripheral frame 11 that is adjacent to and in contact with each other is joined by mounting the bolts and nuts 11b in the through holes 11a provided in each side.

上下に複数段の容器1を積むときは、図示のように1段おきに左右の各端部に拘束部材10の半個分のスペースが空くが、そこには、正六角形を半分に割った台形状の外形を有する代替枠18を結合するとよい。代替枠18にも各辺に通し孔18aを設けておき、それを利用して隣接の外周枠11と結合する。空いたスペースにこのような代替枠18を必ず取り付けるには及ばないが、取り付ける方が連結体20の結合の強さは向上する。 When stacking a plurality of stages of containers 1 vertically, as shown in the figure, spaces for half of the restraint members 10 are left at each end on every other stage, and a regular hexagon is divided into halves. An alternative frame 18 having a trapezoidal outline may be combined. The substitute frame 18 is also provided with through holes 18a on each side and is used to connect with the adjacent outer peripheral frame 11. Although it is not always necessary to attach such a substitute frame 18 to the empty space, the attachment strength of the connecting body 20 is improved by the attachment.

図3のような連結体20は、図4のような固定用フレーム30内に入れてそれと結合させると、さらに結合の強さが高くなる。固定用フレーム30は、鋼板製のベースプレート31の上面に、上方へ延びた形鋼製の2つの端部枠32・33を取り付けたものである。端部枠32・33の各左右位置には側部支持柱が一体に設けてあり、それら支持柱に、通し孔32a・33aがそれぞれ形成してある。ベースプレート31の上面には、上部に120°の頂角をはさむ対称な2辺を有する支持枠34を、各端部枠32・33の真下の位置に間隔をおいて複数個設け、これらの上部各辺にも通し孔34aを形成している。通し孔32a・33a・34aは、図3の連結体20における左右端部および最下段に位置する拘束部材10(外周枠11)の通し孔11aまたは代替枠18の通し孔18aと通じる位置にあり、ボルト(図示省略)を通して連結体20と固定用フレーム30とを結合させるためのものである。 When the connecting body 20 as shown in FIG. 3 is put in the fixing frame 30 as shown in FIG. 4 and connected to it, the strength of the connection is further increased. The fixing frame 30 is formed by attaching two end frames 32 and 33 made of shaped steel and extending upward to the upper surface of a base plate 31 made of a steel plate. Side support columns are integrally provided at left and right positions of the end frames 32 and 33, and through holes 32a and 33a are formed in the support columns, respectively. On the upper surface of the base plate 31, there are provided a plurality of support frames 34 having two symmetrical sides with an apex angle of 120° at a position directly below each of the end frames 32 and 33 at intervals. Through holes 34a are also formed on each side. The through holes 32a, 33a, 34a are located at positions communicating with the through holes 11a of the restraining member 10 (outer peripheral frame 11) located at the left and right ends and the lowermost stage of the coupling body 20 of FIG. 3 or the through holes 18a of the substitute frame 18. , For connecting the connecting body 20 and the fixing frame 30 through bolts (not shown).

高圧ガス容器1の連結体20(図3)と固定用フレーム30(図4)とは、たとえば図5のように結合させることができる。すなわち、図3のように複数本の高圧ガス容器1を結合させてできた連結体20を、図4の固定用フレーム30の端部枠32・33の内側へ組み入れ、上記のように通し孔を利用して連結体20を固定用フレーム30に結合させ、さらに、上端部に上部固定用フレーム40を結合させる。上部固定用フレーム40は、左右に延びた平行なアーム41・42を連結梁43に取り付けたもので、各アーム41・42の下面には、下部に120°の頂角をはさむ対称な2辺を有する下向きの支持枠44を複数個、間隔をおいて設けている。これら支持枠44の下部各辺にも通し孔44aを形成しており、これら通し孔44aを、連結体20における最上段の拘束部材10(外周枠11)の通し孔11aと通じさせて、ボルト(図示省略)により連結することができる。また、各アーム41・42の両端部は、固定用フレーム30の端部枠32・33に対してボルトにより連結することができる。上記の各ボルトを利用してそれぞれ連結を行うと、高圧ガス容器1の連結体20は、左右および上下のいずれの側でも固定用フレーム30・40と一体化され、安定的に固定された状態となる。図6は、連結体20等がそのように固定された構造体50を示している。 The connecting body 20 (FIG. 3) of the high-pressure gas container 1 and the fixing frame 30 (FIG. 4) can be connected as shown in FIG. 5, for example. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the connecting body 20 formed by combining a plurality of high-pressure gas containers 1 is incorporated into the end frames 32 and 33 of the fixing frame 30 of FIG. 4 and the through holes are formed as described above. The connecting body 20 is connected to the fixing frame 30 by using the above, and the upper fixing frame 40 is further connected to the upper end portion. The upper fixing frame 40 has parallel arms 41 and 42 extending left and right attached to a connecting beam 43. The lower surface of each arm 41 and 42 has two symmetrical sides with a vertical angle of 120° at the bottom. A plurality of downwardly facing support frames 44 having the above are provided at intervals. Through holes 44a are also formed in each of the lower sides of the support frames 44. The through holes 44a are communicated with the through holes 11a of the uppermost restraining member 10 (outer peripheral frame 11) in the coupling body 20 to form bolts. (Not shown) can be connected. Further, both ends of each arm 41, 42 can be connected to the end frames 32, 33 of the fixing frame 30 by bolts. When the respective bolts are connected to each other, the connected body 20 of the high-pressure gas container 1 is integrated with the fixing frames 30 and 40 on both the left and right sides and the upper and lower sides, and is stably fixed. Becomes FIG. 6 shows a structure 50 to which the connecting body 20 and the like are fixed as described above.

図5には、水平に複数本・上下に複数段の高圧ガス容器1を結合した状態の連結体20を、まとめて固定用フレーム30の枠内に収める態様を例示している。上部固定用フレーム40に吊り上げに適した部分を設け、同フレーム40の機械的強度を十分に高くしておく(また他の補強手段を併用する)なら、連結体20となった状態の複数本の高圧ガス容器1をまとめて一度に吊り上げて固定用フレーム30の枠内に収めることができる。
ただし、高圧ガス容器1は、複数段ではなくたとえば1段ごとに上部固定用フレーム40の下部に結合させ、それを吊り上げたうえ固定用フレーム30の枠内に収容する(そのつど上下の拘束部材10間の結合を行う)、との手順を繰り返すことによっても、図6の状態に結合させることが可能である。いずれにしても、上部固定用フレーム40に吊上げ用部材を兼ねさせることができると、高圧ガス容器1を吊り上げて固定用フレーム30の枠内に収容する作業を行いやすい。
FIG. 5 exemplifies a mode in which a plurality of high pressure gas containers 1 that are horizontally connected and a plurality of high pressure gas containers 1 that are vertically connected are collectively housed in a frame of a fixing frame 30. If the upper fixing frame 40 is provided with a portion suitable for lifting and the mechanical strength of the frame 40 is sufficiently high (and other reinforcing means is also used), a plurality of connected bodies 20 are formed. The high-pressure gas containers 1 can be collectively lifted and housed in the frame of the fixing frame 30 at one time.
However, the high-pressure gas container 1 is not a plurality of stages, but is joined to the lower portion of the upper fixing frame 40 in stages, for example, and is lifted and then housed in the frame of the fixing frame 30 (the upper and lower restraining members in each case). It is also possible to perform the coupling in the state of FIG. 6 by repeating the procedure of performing coupling between 10). In any case, if the upper fixing frame 40 can also serve as a hoisting member, the work of hoisting the high-pressure gas container 1 and accommodating it in the frame of the fixing frame 30 can be easily performed.

発明の一態様である水素トレーラAを図7に示す。図示の水素トレーラAは、水素を燃料とする水素自動車(燃料電池自動車を含む)に水素を供給等するための手段であり、水素を充填した高圧ガス容器1を搭載して水素ステーションまで輸送し、また水素ステーションに留置されて水素自動車への水素の供給を行う。輸送の際は、図のようにトラクターに牽引されることによって走行する。 FIG. 7 shows a hydrogen trailer A which is one embodiment of the invention. The hydrogen trailer A shown in the figure is a means for supplying hydrogen to a hydrogen vehicle (including a fuel cell vehicle) that uses hydrogen as a fuel, and is equipped with a high-pressure gas container 1 filled with hydrogen and transported to a hydrogen station. Also, it is placed in a hydrogen station to supply hydrogen to hydrogen vehicles. During transportation, it is driven by being pulled by a tractor as shown in the figure.

図7の水素トレーラAは、その台車上に、複数本の上記高圧ガス容器1を、図6の状態(構造体50)に固定して搭載している。すなわち、図1に示す拘束部材10を図2のように両端部のネック部1bに嵌め付けた高圧ガス容器1を、拘束部材10同士を結合して図3の連結体20にし、図4の固定用フレーム30の枠内に収めてそれと結合するとともに、図5のように上部固定用フレーム40を上端部に結合して図6の状態にし、その構造体50を1組、高圧ガス容器1の軸心が前後を向くよう台車上に取り付けている。こうした水素トレーラAは、複数の高圧ガス容器1がコンパクトに(とくに全高を抑制して)、しかもしっかり固定された状態で搭載されている点で好ましい。 The hydrogen trailer A of FIG. 7 has a plurality of high-pressure gas containers 1 fixed and mounted on the carriage in the state of FIG. 6 (structure 50). That is, the high-pressure gas container 1 in which the restraint members 10 shown in FIG. 1 are fitted to the neck portions 1b at both ends as shown in FIG. 2 is joined to the restraint members 10 to form the connected body 20 shown in FIG. While being housed in the frame of the fixing frame 30 and connected thereto, the upper fixing frame 40 is connected to the upper end portion as shown in FIG. 5 to obtain the state of FIG. 6, and one set of the structure 50 thereof, the high pressure gas container 1 It is mounted on the dolly so that the axis of the is oriented front and back. Such a hydrogen trailer A is preferable in that a plurality of high-pressure gas containers 1 are mounted compactly (in particular, suppressing the total height) and firmly fixed.

図8に、やはり発明の一態様である別の水素トレーラBを示す。図7の水素トレーラAと同じ目的で使用するものだが、図8の水素トレーラBには、複数本の高圧ガス容器1を図6のように結合した構造体50を2組、台車上に前後に間隔をおいて搭載している。なお、図示の例では、台車の前方位置に取り付けた構造体50は、後方のもの(図6の構造体50)に比べて高圧ガス容器1の上下積載段数が少ない。 FIG. 8 shows another hydrogen trailer B which is also an aspect of the invention. Although it is used for the same purpose as the hydrogen trailer A in FIG. 7, the hydrogen trailer B in FIG. 8 has two sets of structures 50 in which a plurality of high pressure gas containers 1 are connected as shown in FIG. It is mounted at intervals. In the illustrated example, the structure 50 attached to the front position of the trolley has a smaller number of upper and lower stacking stages of the high-pressure gas container 1 as compared with the rear structure (the structure 50 of FIG. 6).

搭載した2組の構造体50のそれぞれにおいて高圧ガス容器1は向きを揃えて固定しているが、前方の構造体50と後方の構造体50とでは、高圧ガス容器1の向きを違えている。すなわち、台車の前方に置いた構造体50においては、いずれの容器1も元弁の側を後ろ向きにし、後方に置いた構造体50においてはいずれの容器1も元弁の側を前向きにしている。つまり、前方の構造体50内のすべての容器1と、後方の構造体50内のすべての容器1とを、元弁側同士が向かい合わせになるように配置している。そして、前後各組の容器1の間に、作業員が入れるだけの操作用スペース55ができるように前後の各構造体50間に間隔をとっている。 The high-pressure gas container 1 is fixed in each of the mounted two sets of structures 50 in the same direction, but the front structure 50 and the rear structure 50 have different directions of the high-pressure gas container 1. .. That is, in the structure 50 placed in front of the trolley, all the containers 1 face the original valve side backward, and in the structure 50 placed in the rear, all the containers 1 face the original valve side forward. .. That is, all the containers 1 in the front structure 50 and all the containers 1 in the rear structure 50 are arranged such that the original valve sides face each other. A space is provided between the front and rear structural bodies 50 so that an operating space 55 for an operator to insert can be provided between the front and rear sets of containers 1.

各高圧ガス容器1の元弁の側では、水素の供給・停止に関するバルブ操作を行う必要があるが、上のようにしたことにより、前後両組の全容器1についてのバルブ操作を、上記1箇所の操作用スペース55において能率的に行うことができる。とくに大型の水素トレーラでは構造体50を3組以上搭載する場合があり得るが、そのような場合も、前後に隣接するいずれか2組について容器1の元弁側同士が操作用スペースをはさんで向かい合うように配置するとよい。
なお、図7・図8のいずれの例においても、高圧ガス容器1の元弁に配管類を介して接続されている各種の計器や操作バルブ等は、台車上の後端部に近い位置にまとめて設置するとよい。
On the side of the main valve of each high-pressure gas container 1, it is necessary to perform the valve operation related to the supply/stop of hydrogen, but by doing the above, the valve operation for all the containers 1 of both the front and rear groups is performed as described above. The operation can be performed efficiently in the operation space 55 at a certain place. Particularly in a large hydrogen trailer, there may be a case where three or more sets of the structure 50 are mounted, and in such a case, the main valve side of the container 1 sandwiches the operating space between any two sets adjacent to the front and rear. It is good to arrange so as to face each other.
In each of the examples of FIGS. 7 and 8, various instruments and operation valves connected to the main valve of the high-pressure gas container 1 via piping are located near the rear end of the carriage. It is good to install them all together.
