A high-pressure container unit, comprising:
- a box-shaped case mounted on a vehicle, and including a bottom portion, a ceiling portion, and a peripheral wall portion;
- a plurality of container main bodies arranged in an interior of the box-shaped case, and each of the plurality of container main bodies having a cylindrical body portion;
- and
- a reinforcing member extending along an axial direction of the plurality of container main bodies, wherein the reinforcing member is provided in at least one of
- a first space surrounded by adjacent container main bodies among the plurality of container main bodies and the bottom portion, or
- a second space surrounded by the adjacent container main bodies among the plurality of container main bodies and the ceiling portion, and
- a cross-section shape of the reinforcing member along a direction crossing the axial direction is a quadrilateral or triangular shape which has a lower surface portion fixed to the box-shaped case.
