TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present subject matter relates to a multi-wheeled vehicle. More particularly, but not exclusively to a storage structure for the multi-wheeled vehicle.
BACKGROUND
[0002] In many of the developing and under developed countries, a motor vehicle particularly a three-wheeled automotive vehicle is a significant mode of public transportation. It is vastly used as a point to point mode of transport in rural and urban areas for private or commercial use. In general, a multi-track three-wheeled vehicle includes a driver compartment in a front side having a seat assembly for a driver and a passenger compartment at a rear side with another seat assembly for the passengers, and is also provided with a storage portion behind the passenger seat assembly for accommodating luggage. In another known passenger carrying vehicle, an additional seat assembly may be added to increase the passenger capacity of the vehicle. The three wheeled vehicle with a huge carrier at the rear side instead of passenger seat assembly may also be present for storing heavy goods. The three wheeled automotive vehicle has a rear compartment at a lower posterior portion of the vehicle to accommodate' a powertrain, for example, an internal combustion engine or an electric motor or bom to power the vehicle disposed substantially below the seat. The rear compartment includes enough space to accommodate several other vehicular components like a muffler, an air filter device etc.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[00010] In general, the multi-track three-wheeled vehicle includes a body frame assembly comprising a head tube and a main tube disposed in the driver's compartment. The main tube is extended by a pair of longitudinal members disposed in the driver's compartment and extending to the passenger compartment along the length of the three wheeled vehicle. The pair of longitudinal members extend along the length of the three wheeled vehicle in parallel to each other. Plurality of cross-members are disposed across the pair of longitudinal members. The body frame assembly is configured to support a cabin assembly to accommodate the rider and the passengers in the three wheeled vehicle. The body frame assembly could be of monocoque type or semi monocoque type for the passenger type three wheeled vehicle and for the goods carrier type three wheeled vehicle respectively. The body frame assembly for both the monocoque type and semi-monocoque type remains same. For both the type of body frame assemblies, the engine assembly is mounted at the rear compartment of the vehicle for effective torque transfer to the wheels of the vehicle.
[00011] Generally, the rear compartment is disposed behind the passenger seat
assembly in the three-wheeled vehicle. A portion of the rear compartment is used
to store luggage and other articles by the user of the vehicle. A low floorboard
height, high ground clearance and good seating space necessitates packaging of
major power train and storage components of the vehicle towards the rear portion
of the vehicle thereby leading to offset of the center of gravity (CG) of the vehicle
towards the rear portion. Additionally, for the users, ergonomics and ease of
ingress and egress restricts the height of the floorboard. Raise in Level of the
r,PPTPF THFNMAT 21/01/2019 12= UU

seating of the passengers can lead to undesirable rise in the overall roof height of the vehicle, which further increases the vehicle overall size which is again detrimental for vehicle stability. Increase in vehicle height also increases the aerodynamic drag resistance for the vehicle giving rise to poor mileage for the vehicle. Further, in addition to the luggage and other - articles, the rear compartment has to accommodate several other vehicular components in the limited space available. Such vehicular components include internal combustion engine, battery, air filter, radiator, fuel tank, an energy storage device like battery, fuel filter, etc. The weight of the power train along with the weight of other vehicular components disposed on the rear portion causes sub-optimal location of the CG as well as imbalance in the vehicle leading to poor vehicle handling conditions. Further, the hoses of the fuel system, the wiring harness of the energy storage device associated with the storage structure are prone to damage in vehicle moving condition. The components of the fuel system are difficult to service in the limited space available. It is therefore a challenge to design a rigidly mounted storing structure accommodated within the space available' in the rear compartment of the three wheeled vehicle without compromising die storing volume as well as serviceability.
[00012] Further, the storage structure, typically used to store the fuel or energy source to power the motor or engine is disposed in the rear compartment and at a close proximity to the engine and substantially closer to the rear wheels. As a result, the level of fuel stored in the unit as indicated by the display unit to the rider often tends to be varying over a large range owing to the dynamic sloshing of the contents of the storage unit. Such disposition of the storage unit closer to the rear wheels tends to negate the effect of any stabilizers and deflectors inside the storage unit leading to inconsistent information about the exact quantity of the fuel available. In the case of the energy storage device, it can lead to potential damage or breakage of the energy storage device owing to dynamic excitation / excess vibration inputs in addition to poor durability of the storage device. Any fluid medium in the battery will also experience heavy disturbance which is undesirable. Generally, the storage 0 fStfucJufeEis disposS.d'lbeniflS the pow.ei^alnlin't^e-rear^cornpartrnehtr'The cabin

assembly, including the rear compartment is covered by plurality of body panels. Such body panels are usually made up of resin or metal. Further, the rear of the cabin assembly is protected by a rear guard assembly. However, the body panels covering the sides of the cabin assembly are exposed and is not protected by the rear guard assembly. In case of external impacts due to collision with other vehicles, particularly in collision with the two-wheelers, the cabin assembly and the rear compartment are subject to damages. The damages being, deformation of the body panels, if made of metal material and bending of the body panels made of metals. In both the cases, the impact eventually is reaching the storage structure disposed in the rear compartment. Such an impact, always leads to leakage of fuel from the storage structure or potentially hazardous damage to the energy storage device.
[00013] As a result of the above explained external impacts, the storage structure calls for a need for replacement of the entire structure. The accessibility and servicing of such a conventional storage structure is a cumbersome activity, as it involves accessing of the storage structure disposed amidst tightly packed vehicular components disposed in the compact space of the rear compartment. In order to " access or replace the conventional storage structure, other vehicular components disposed around the storage compartment have to be dismantled/disturbed. This calls for a costlier process of servicing and time consuming servicing too.
[00014] Furthermore, the storage structure containing fuel is always subject to heat
from the powertrain assembly. The heat from the powertrain assembly is generated
during normal functioning. The fresh atmospheric air entering the bottom portion
of the vehicle, firstly encounters the powertrain assembly and the same flowing air
is now heated up by the engine assembly and then reaches the storage structure
disposed just behind and at a close proximity to the powertrain assembly. Further,
the constant encounter of the heated atmospheric air by the storage compartment
makes the storage compartment experience evaporation of the fuel in case of
petroleum storage or thermal runaway in case of other energy storage devices like
battery. Further, the faster evaporation of the fuel results in circulation of the fuel
vapors all over the rear compartment or a thermal runaway, paving a way for risk of FFICE CHEMNAI 21/01-0619 12*00

fire incidents. Furthermore, the passengers in the passenger compartment may also be subject to discomfort due to constant presence of smell of fuel vapors.
[00015] Furthermore, due to compact packaging of plurality of vehicular components along with the storage structure, a bigger storage structure cannot be accommodated in the available space. The conventional storage structure with smaller storage capacity cannot tend to higher requirements of the user of the vehicle.
[00016] Typical solutions to solve the above said problems, as already existing in the known art includes incorporation of deflectors, made of resin material, attached to the powertrain assembly, which functions as deflector by deflecting the heated air from the powertrain assembly and away from the storage structure. However, the powertrain assembly of the three-wheeled vehicle is bigger compared to other smaller vehicles. The deflector attached to such a bigger powertrain assembly of the three-wheeled vehicle should be huge enough to obstruct the flow of heated air towards the storage structure. Again, the packaging of such a bigger deflector in the compact space of the rear compartment of the powertrain assembly is not desirable. Further, the addition of deflector to solve the above said problem leads to an additional part and increase in cost to the user of the vehicle. Moreover, the problem of imbalance in the vehicle due to differential weight balance in the vehicle is still not resolved in the known art but is rather aggravated further. Therefore, the solution of using deflector as known in the art is not preferred.
[000i7] Therefore, it is not desirable to have the energy storage structure in the rear compartment of the three-wheeled vehicle.
[00018] According to an embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure is disposed at a close proximity to the center of gravity of the vehicle and away from the powertrain assembly and preferably away from the rear compartment and substantially upstream of the powertrain assembly.
[00019] According to an embodiment of the present subject matter, the rear compartment in the three-wheeled vehicle is disposed below and rearwardly to the

passenger compartment. The passenger compartment is a part of the cabin assembly supported on the pair of longitudinal members of the vehicle body frame. A portion of the passenger compartment is also supported on the pair of longitudinal members. The passengers being seated on the passenger seat assembly rest their feet on the passenger floorboard disposed lower to the passenger seat assembly in die passenger compartment. The passenger floorboard is supported on the pair of longitudinal members and the space below the passenger floorboard includes rear suspension assembly and other vehicular components.
[00020] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the storage structure is disposed below the passenger floorboard space in the passenger compartment of the cabin assembly. The storage structure is attached to at least a portion of the vehicle frame assembly through at least one holding member. In a preferred embodiment, the storage structure is disposed in between the pair of longitudinal members, below the passenger floorboard space when viewed from a top view. The space available between the pair of longitudinal members is sufficient enough to accommodate a storage structure of bigger capacity. Further, the storage structure may be subject to various external impacts like pot holes, large speed breakers, hitting of stones etc. occurring from below during traversing of the vehicle on the road. According to the present subject matter, the storage structure is protected by die frame assembly of the three-wheeled vehicle from those external impacts.
[00021] Further, in the preferred embodiment, the storage structure is disposed upstream of the engine assembly. During traversing condition of the vehicle, fresh atmospheric air enters the portion below the vehicle and also the space below the passenger floorboard. This fresh atmospheric air first encounters the. storage structure and then hits-the powertrain assembly, then leaves the bottom portion of the vehicle after cooling die powertrain assembly. The storage structure is made available with abundant atmospheric air and is also protected from the heat dissipated due to the operation of the powertrain assembly. The evaporation of the fuel from the storage structure is prevented and the user is not taken by surprise due to evaporation of the fuel, which would otherwise occur in conventional cases. The

proposed invention results in reduced evaporative emissions that may occur due to gradual escape of fuel vapors from the storage structure. As a result of efficient cooling'of the energy storage device, the heat dissipation and the fuel vaporization rate is significantly reduced enabling achieving lower emission and optimal layout packaging..
[00022] Further, according to another embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure with bigger capacity can be easily accommodated in the proposed location of below the passenger floorboard space. The storage structure as in the proposed subject matter does not have to undergo complicated shape changes as the space below the passenger floorboard does not include cluttering of plurality of vehicular components in the given space. Instead, a simpler storage structure of the bigger capacity and of desired, shape can be easily disposed in the proposed location below the passenger floorboard.
[00023] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure disposed in between the pair of longitudinal members and below the passenger floorboard enables easy assembly onto the portion of the vehicle frame assembly due to absence of other vehicular components. The servicing of the storage structure is also easier due to absence of cluttered vehicular components surrounding the storage structure. Furthermore, the servicing of the other vehicular components in the rear compartment also is comparatively easier due to absence of the storage structure in the locality. The servicing of the other vehicular components in the rear compartment can be carried out without being worried about damaging the storage structure.
[00024] According to another embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure is disposed within the pair of longitudinal members of the vehicle frame assembly. The longitudinal members protect the storage structure from external impacts due to collision with other vehicles on the road. Therefore, the proposed invention provides a safe location for the storage structure carrying fuel or the like.

[00025] According to another embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure is placed within the pair of longitudinal members of the vehicle frame assembly for a goods carrier type of multi-track three-wheeled vehicle. Thereby additional space now available below the carrier disposed rearwardly to the rider's compartment can be utilized for storage purposes.
[00026] According to yet another embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure is disposed at a proximity to one of the longitudinal members of the pair of longitudinal members and at an offset to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
[00027] According to another embodiment of the present subject matter, the fuel filling direction for the storage structure can be on any one of a right hand side and a left hand side of the vehicle. At least one provision is provided to enable fuel filling on any one of a right hand side and a left hand side of the vehicle.
[00028] According to another embodiment of the present subject matter, the storage structure is disposed below the passenger floorboard at a predetermined distance from the passenger floorbaord. The predetermined distance prevents the damage to the storage structure that may occur due to damage to the passenger floorboard and during overloading of the passenger floorboard with heavier articles/heavier goods.
[00029] In one preferred embodiment, the storage structure is a fuel tank configured to store fuel there within and includes a fuel inlet, a fuel cap, and a fuel filling component.
[00030] Exemplary embodiments detailing features of the three-wheeled vehicle, in accordance with the present subject matter- will be described hereunder. However, the present invention is not restricted in its application and is also applicable to vehicles employing an internal combustion engine or either by an internal combustion engine or the drive motor selectively.
[00031] It is to be noted that "front" and "rear", and "left" and "right" wherever referred to in the ensuing description, refer to front and rear.^and Jeft and right

directions as seen in a state of being seated on a seat of the vehicle and looking forward. Furthermore, a longitudinal axis refers to a front to rear axis relative to the vehicle, while, a lateral axis refers generally to a side to side, or left to right axis relative to the vehicle. Various other features of the three-wheeled vehicle according to the present subject matter here will be discernible from the following further description thereof, set out hereunder.
[00032] Figure 1 illustrates a schematic side perspective view of an exemplary three-wheeled vehicle. The vehicle can be used as a passenger carrier vehicle or a load carrier vehicle. It has a front cowl 114 supporting a windscreen 112. The lower portion of the front cowl 114 is connected to a front wheel 116 with a wheel cover 115 disposed in between. A handle bar assembly (not shown) is present behind the front cowl 114 which is used to operate the three-wheeled vehicle 100. The vehicle 100 is divided into two compartments comprising a front compartment D and a rear compartment P along a lateral central plane PQ passing approximately through the centre of the vehicle. The front compartment is a driver's compartment having a driver's seat assembly 117 and a rear compartment is a passenger compartment having at least one passenger seat assembly 120. A rear compartment 123 along with the passenger compartment P of the vehicle 100 is supported on a pair of rear wheels 121 located on either side of the longitudinal axis of the vehicle 100. The driver's compartment and the passenger compartment both are supported on the vehicle frame assembly (not shown). The driver's compartment and the passenger compartment are disposed in the cabin assembly 111. The vehicle frame assembly includes a head tube (head tube) configured to support the handle bar assembly (not shown). A main tube (not shown) extends obliquely rearwardly from the head tube. A pair of longitudinal members (not shown) extend rearwardly throughout the length of the vehicle and along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
[00033] Figure 2 illustrates a top view of an exemplary multi-wheeled vehicle. The exemplary multi wheeled vehicle as illustrated in the figure is a three-wheeled vehicle. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the multi-wheeled, vehicle. .lQOr includes ^ storage -structure 2pi) connected to an

internal combustion engine 205 disposed in a rear portion of the vehicle 100. The storage structure 201 is configured to supply fuel to the internal combustion engine 205 and propel the internal combustion engine 205. The storage structure 201 is disposed along a centre axis RS passing centrally through the storage structure 201. The centre axis RS of the storage structure 201 is disposed at a close proximity to the centre of gravity axis CG. In the multi-wheeled vehicle as illustrated, the imbalance in the vehicle due to differences in various weights of the plurality of vehicular components is overcome by placing the storage structure 201 at a close proximity to the centre of gravity axis CG. The centre of gravity axis CG is an optimum location in the vehicle wherein the weight of the internal combustion engine 205 at the rear portion of the vehicle and the weight of the storage structure 201 disposed upstream of the internal combustion engine 205 is balanced at a right location to maintain the balance and stability of the vehicle and prevent toppling or skidding towards sideways during vehicle running condition. [00034] According to another embodiment of the present invention, at least a portion of the storage structure 201 is disposed along the lateral central plane PQ. The lateral central plane PQ in the vehicle 100 is disposed at a close proximity to the centre of gravity axis CG and forward to the centre axis RS. The storage structure 201 disposed along the lateral central plane PQ prevents sloshing of the contents inside the storage structure 201, for example, fuel or battery fluids and prevents contents inside the storage structure 201 from spilling out of a fuel filling component 204. Furthermore, the erratic reading of the fuel level indicator that may occur due to fuel sloshing is also prevented by disposing the storage structure 201 as described above.
[00035] Figure 3 illustrates a left side perspective view of a goods carrier type three wheeled vehicle. The goods carrier type three wheeled vehicle includes a carrier for carrying different kinds of load. The goods carrier type three-wheeled vehicle includes a similar vehicle frame assembly as explained above. The vehicle frame assembly 200 includes the pair of longitudinal members 202 extending rearwardly throughout the length of the vehicle. The pair of longitudinal members

202 in the present embodiment are capable of supporting a huge carrier structure (not shown) above them.
[00036] Further, a well-defined space, an under space 124a is formed below the carrier structure and in between the pair of longitudinal members 202. The storage structure 201 is disposed in the under space 124a and in between the pair of longitudinal members 202. The under space 124a includes substantial amount of space to accommodate a storage structure 201 of higher capacity as per the requirement of the usage of the vehicle. Further, the under space 124a is well guarded by the pair of longitudinal frame members 202 of the vehicle frame assembly 200 of the vehicle. The storage structure 201 disposed in between the pair of longitudinal members 202 is well protected from external impacts that may occur on the road due to collision with other vehicles as well as when executing large speed breakers. As a result, frequent servicing and replacement of the entire storage structure may be reduced to a maximum extent. Further, in case of regular servicing, the access to various portions of the storage structure 201 is comparatively easier due to absence of other vehicular components surrounding the storage structure 201.
[00037] Figure 4 illustrates a top perspective view of the three-wheeled vehicle. The storage structure 201 is securely mounted in between the pair of longitudinal members 202 and is mounted by the at least one holding member 301. In particular, the at least one holding member 301 is fixedly attached to a cross-member 203 disposed across the pair of longitudinal members 202. The at least one holding member 301 in the present embodiment includes at least one holding means 301a to fasten the storage structure 201 onto the at least one holding member 301. For example, the at least one holding means may include pair of straps to secure the storage structure 201 onto the at least one holding member 301. The at least one holding member 301 is configured to extend along the bottom surface of the storage structure 201, such that the at least one holding member 301 provides stable support to the storage structure 201 even while the vehicle is traversing on rough roads. The at least one holding member 301 FioeludTngtheCaiHelsHQrie/bolding fne^ns 3j01a forms an^ccojnmQdating portion to

accommodate the storage structure 201 and provides stable support to the storage structure 201.
[00038] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the storage structure 201 is not surrounded by any of the cluttering of other vehicular components in the given space. As a result, the storage structure 201 of higher capacity and any desired shape, contour and profile, being an uncomplicated shape can be easily accommodated in between the pair of longitudinal members 202. The storage structure 201 of bigger capacity can be accommodated in the under space 124a of the passenger floorboard. Furthermore, the cluttering or tangling of the fuel hoses, wiring harness and the fuel filling component does not occur as per the proposed invention. A free flow of fuel hoses and wiring harness and the fuel filling component can be achieved without having concern for routing across the other vehicular components. Furthermore, the tangling/cluttering of the fuel hoses and wiring harness substantially saves the unwanted lengthier fuel hoses and instead an economical length of fuel hoses and wiring harness can be achieved.
[00039] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the fuel filling component 204 is disposed on the left side of the vehicle substantially above the rear wheel and forward to the wheel axis. However, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the fuel filling component 204 can be disposed on the right side of the vehicle.
[00040] Furthermore, the storage structure 201 is disposed upstream of the powertrain assembly 205. During the vehicle traversing condition, the fresh atmospheric air flowing at the bottom portion of the vehicle is subject to come in contact with the storage structure 201. The components of the storage structure 201 can make use of the fresh atmospheric air and further, the atmospheric air is subject to come in contact with the powertrain assembly 205 disposed downstream to the storage structure 201. The heated air from the powertrain assembly 205 escapes from the bottom of the vehicle without affecting any of the surrounding vehicular components.

[00041] According to another embodiment of the present invention, the storage structure 201 is disposed on the upstream side of a radiator 207 wherein the radiator is disposed substantially rearward of the powertrain and in the rear compartment. Hence the storage structure 201 will be subjected to lower temperatures.
[00042] Figure 5 illustrates a left side view of the three-wheeled vehicle. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the storage structure 201 is disposed at a predetermined distance pd from the passenger floorboard 124. The predetermined distance pd ensures that the sagging of the passenger floorboard 124 does not affect the top surface of the storage structure 201. Further, the predetermined distance pd prevents the damage to the storage structure that may occur due to damage to the passenger floorboard and during overloading of the passenger floorboard with heavier articles/heavier goods. Furthermore, the storage structure 201 is disposed in between the pair of longitudinal members 202 in such a manner, that the lower most portion exposed to the road or any irregularities on the road is first encountered by the portion of the pair of longitudinal members 202. In other words, the lowermost portion of the storage structure 201 is disposed above the lower most portion of the pair of longitudinal members 202. Therefore, the storage structure 201 is protected from any external impacts from bumps, speed breakers on the road and irregularity in the roads by the pair of longitudinal
-members 202 of the frame assembly in the vehicle 100.
[00043] Furthermore, the storage structure 201 is disposed substantially away from the at least one body panel 205. The at least one body panel 208 being vulnerable to damages does not in any way affect the storage structure 201 according to the present subject matter.
[00044] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a lower most portion 201b of the storage structure 201 is disposed above at least a portion of the pair of longitudinal members 202.
[00045] Figure 6 illustrates a rear view of the exemplary three-wheeled vehicle. As viewed from the rear view, the storage structure 201 is disposed above the

holding means 301a of the at least one holding member 301 extend substantially to the rear portion of the storage structure 201. Such that, the at least one holding means 301a of the at least one holding member 301 securely holds the storage structure 201. Further, the storage structure 201 is protected from rear side by another component 206 of the vehicle frame assembly. As viewed from the rear view, the bottom most portion 201b of the storage structure 201 is disposed above the cross member 203. The storage structure 201 is protected from the external impacts on the road by the various members of the vehicle frame assembly. [00046] The present subject matter is thus described. The description is not intended to be exhaustive nor is it intended to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the disclosed embodiments may be modified in light of the above description. The forgoing description is to be considered exemplary, rather than limiting, and the true scope of the invention is that described in the appended claims.
