Electric truck frame
An electric truck frame of an electric truck driven by electric power supplied from a battery includes a pair of side rails supporting a cab that are coupled by a plurality of cross members. The battery is disposed between the pair of side rails at a rear side of the cab. The pair of side rails include a plurality of elastic support sections that elastically support both ends of the battery in an electric truck width direction in a battery region in which the battery is disposed between the pair of side rails. The plurality of cross members are prohibited from being placed in the battery region.
1. An electric truck frame of an electric truck driven by electric power supplied from a battery, comprising:
a pair of side rails supporting a cab are coupled by a plurality of cross members;
wherein the battery is disposed between the pair of side rails at a rear side of the cab;
wherein the pair of side rails include a plurality of elastic support sections that elastically support both ends of a housing of the battery in an electric truck width direction in a battery region in which the battery is disposed between the pair of side rails;
wherein the plurality of cross members are prohibited from being placed in the battery region, and
wherein the pair of side rails are elastically connected to each other via the housing of the battery and the elastic support sections.
2. The electric truck frame according to claim 1 , wherein a cross member of the plurality of cross members placed at an electric truck front side of the battery region has a flat shape having a smaller width in an electric truck height direction than that of the pair of side rails and is placed at an upper side in the electric truck height direction between the pair of side rails.
3. The electric truck frame according to claim 1 , wherein the elastic support sections are provided on an outside of the side rails in the vehicle width direction.
4. The electric truck frame according to claim 1 , wherein each of the pair of side rails includes respective elastic support sections at a plurality of positions spaced in an electric truck longitudinal direction.
5. The electric truck frame according claim 1 , wherein the battery region extends to a cross member of the plurality of cross members disposed in a rear wheel drive region.
