Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a vehicle having a storage assembly for storing and dispensing a pressurized gas. The storage assembly includes a first storage cylinder section and a second storage cylinder section that each have multiple storage cylinders arranged longitudinally parallel to one another in a first layer and at least in a second layer. The storage cylinders are fluidically connected to one another in a meandering manner by a plurality storage cylinder loops. Each of the storage cylinder loops is connected to an axial end of a storage cylinder disposed in the first layer and an axial end of a storage cylinder disposed in the second layer. The storage assembly includes a cross member frictionally connected to the body of the vehicle and arranged in an interstice defined between the first and second storage cylinder sections.
