Abstract
A chassis cab vehicle includes a lower frame, which constitutes a lower structure of the vehicle and is equipped with a pair of side members extending in a lengthwise direction of the vehicle. A battery is coupled between the side members. An upper body is coupled to a front portion of the lower frame and forms a cabin interior. A side sill is formed at a lower end at each side of the upper body and extends to a rear side of the cabin interior. The side sills overlap the respective side members in a lateral direction of the vehicle when coupled to the lower frame.
Claims14
A chassis cab vehicle comprising:
- a lower frame, which constitutes a lower structure of the chassis cab vehicle and is equipped with a pair of side members extending in a lengthwise direction of the chassis cab vehicle;
- a battery coupled between the side members;
- and
- an upper body, which is coupled to a front portion of the lower frame to form a cabin interior,
- wherein a side sill is formed at a lower end at each side of the upper body and extends to a rear of the cabin interior,
- wherein the side sills overlap the respective side members in a lateral direction of the chassis cab vehicle when coupled to the lower frame,
- wherein the upper body includes a plurality of upper cross members configured to connect both of the side sills extending to the rear of the cabin interior,
- wherein a plurality of middle cross members is configured to connect both of the side members to each other and formed in the central portion of the lower frame, and
- wherein the plurality of middle cross members overlaps at least one of the plurality of upper cross members.
A chassis cab vehicle comprising:
- a lower frame, which constitutes a lower structure of the chassis cab vehicle and is equipped with a pair of side members extending in a lengthwise direction of the chassis cab vehicle;
- a battery coupled between the side members;
- and
- an upper body, which is coupled to a front portion of the lower frame to form a cabin interior, wherein a side sill is formed at a lower end at each side of the upper body and extends to a rear of the cabin interior, and wherein the side sills overlap the respective side members in a lateral direction of the chassis cab vehicle when coupled to the lower frame,
- wherein the side sills overlap the respective side members in the lateral direction of the chassis cab vehicle and the upper body is fixed by a plurality of fixing parts,
- wherein
- i) the plurality of fixing parts is provided on the lower frame and includes a first mounting part, a second mounting part, and a third mounting part, and
- ii) the first mounting part, the second mounting part, and the third mounting part are disposed spaced apart from each other in the lengthwise direction of the vehicle, and
- wherein
- i) the side sills are spaced apart from the respective side members in the lateral direction of the vehicle so that a gap space is formed between each side sill and the respective side member, and
- ii) the second mounting parts and the third mounting parts are disposed in the gap spaces connecting the upper body to the respective side members.
