る。<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, in the former case, with the conventional mounting structure, it is necessary to provide a support, and since it is installed on the outside of the side rail, the fuel tank may be damaged by stones, etc. Since the fuel tank is made of steel plate to prevent damage to the fuel tank, it has been difficult to reduce costs and weight. In addition, in the latter case, there is no need for pillars and costs can be reduced to some extent, but there are still many exposed parts from the side of the vehicle, so
The fuel tank had to be made of steel, making it difficult to reduce weight and requiring a lot of work to fix. In addition, in order to reduce the weight of the fuel tank, for example,
A fuel tank made of resin has been proposed in publications such as the above.
本考案は上記の実情に鑑みてなされたもので、
断面コ字状のサイドレールとクロスメンバの各上
下フランジ部の空間を利用してこれらで囲まれる

The fuel tank is provided such that both sides of the fuel tank are sandwiched and supported by the support members between the upper and lower flanges of the both side rails, and the end of the fuel tank on the rear side of the vehicle is supported by an elastic member. The fuel tank is fixed by a fixing means that presses the vehicle front end of the fuel tank into the inside of a cross member having a U-shaped cross section provided between the side rails.

Furthermore, the fuel tank fixing portion can be received over a wide range and the fixing method is easy. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the weight and cost of the vehicle.
In addition, the fuel tank is fitted from below, so
It is possible to attach and detach the upper part of the frame even when it is mounted.
〈実施例〉 以下本考案の実施例を説明する。<Example> Examples of the present invention will be described below.
第１図〜第４図は本考案の一実施例を示す図で
ある。 1 to 4 are diagrams showing an embodiment of the present invention.

ジ部１Ｂに係合させるようになつている。尚、燃
料タンク３取り付けは嵌め込みになる。 A fuel tank 3 made of, for example, resin is placed in a predetermined space partitioned by the side rails 1, 1 and the cross member 2 of the vehicle frame. The fuel tank 3 has, in its vertical direction, a lower flange portion 1B of the side rails 1, 1 and a support stand 5 as a support member having an inclined surface provided inside the side rails 1, 1.
It is mounted in such a way that it is supported by being pinched. In addition, at a predetermined position on the bottom side of the fuel tank 3 (indicated by a broken line in FIG.
is integrally formed on the bottom surface of the tank, and is adapted to be engaged with the lower flange portion 1B of the side rails 1, 1 when the fuel tank 3 is attached. Note that the fuel tank 3 is attached by fitting.

ツパとしてのナツト１２とで構成されている。 For example, two fixing devices 9 are arranged in parallel on the rear cross member 2 as fixing means for fixing the fuel tank 3 after it is attached. This fixing device 9 consists of a holding member 10 which has a threaded groove and is provided with a flange member at the tip of a rod that passes through a hole in the cross member 2.
, a coil spring 11 as an elastic member interposed between the flange member and the cross member 2, and a nut 12 as a stopper.

押え部材１０の当たる部分を凹ませてある。 In such a configuration, when installing the fuel tank 3, the holding member 10 of the fixing device 9 is placed on the cross member 2 side as shown in FIG. 4, and a jig 6 as shown in FIG. Then, the fuel tank 3 is fitted between the lower flange portion 1B of the side rail 1 and the support base 5 and pressed toward the front cross member 2, so that the cross member 2 also supports the lower surface of the fuel tank 3. Then, remove the jig 6 and press the holding member 10 of the fixing device 9 onto the coil spring 1.
By pressing the fuel tank 3 against the rear part of the fuel tank 3 with a spring force of 1, the vehicle front end of the fuel tank 3 is pushed inside the front cross member 2.
to be fixed. After fixing the fuel tank 3, the oil filling pipe 7 is attached to the fuel tank 3. The fuel tank 3 is recessed at the portion where the presser member 10 touches.
このように、燃料タンク３を一対のサイドレー

Ａ，２Ｂを利用するので、燃料タンク３を車両に
固定支持するためのブラケツト或いは支柱等が不
用となる。このようなことから、車両の軽量化及
び低コスト化に極めて有効である。 In this way, the fuel tank 3 is placed inside the vehicle frame by being fitted between the lower flange portion 1B of the pair of side rails 1, 1 and the support base 5, so that the fuel tank 3 can be seen from the side of the vehicle. 3 is almost completely removed, and the vehicle will not be hit by flying stones or the like while the vehicle is running. Therefore, the fuel tank 3, which has conventionally been made of a steel plate, can be made of resin. In addition, the lower flange portion 1B of the side rail 1
and the support stand 5 and the flange portion 2 of the cross member 2
Since A and 2B are used, there is no need for a bracket or support for fixedly supporting the fuel tank 3 on the vehicle. For this reason, it is extremely effective in reducing the weight and cost of vehicles.
尚、燃料タンクを固定支持するためのガイド、
爪及び固定装置等の個数及び構成等は、本実施例
のものに限定するものではないことは言うまでも
ない。 In addition, a guide for fixedly supporting the fuel tank,
It goes without saying that the number and configuration of the claws, fixing devices, etc. are not limited to those of this embodiment.

で、支持部の応力も低減させることができる。<Effects of the invention> As described above, according to the invention, both sides of the tank are supported via support members between the upper and lower flanges of the pair of side rails having a U-shaped cross section, and one end of the fuel tank is supported by a cross. Since the structure is such that the fuel tank is pushed inside the member and fixedly supported, there is almost no risk of the fuel tank being hit by flying stones, etc., and the fuel tank can be made of resin. Furthermore, there is no need for a bracket or support for attaching the fuel tank, which is extremely effective in reducing the weight and cost of the vehicle as well as using resin for the fuel tank. Furthermore, since the supporting area of the fuel tank is wide, stress on the supporting portion can also be reduced.
