<p>PURPOSE:To facilitate a work of replacing an LPG cylinder, by a method wherein the LPG cylinder is attached to a containing box to make it slidable in the direction of the width of a vehicle, and it is rotatable in a pull-out position. CONSTITUTION:In pull out of a cylinder 2, a lock mechanism 13 is first unlocked, and a side cover 41 is rotated to lower it onto a ground. Secondly, a lock mechanism is unlocked to slide moving rails 32 along guide rails to pull out the cylinder 2. A support bracket 38 is rotated around a hinge pin, the tip parts of the moving rails 32 are inclined downward, and thirdly a fastening lever 21 is unfastened to support the cylinder 2 to remove it from a block 30. Since, as noted above, after the cylinder 2 is pulled out, it is rotated for pull out, a low rotation control force will suffice for pull out of the cylinder, and even if a worker is weak in a force, he can performs replacement of the cylinder.</p> |
