Abstract
The structural platform () of the vehicle comprises two tanks (T) and (T) for the storage on a vehicle of fluids under pressure. Each tank comprises at least one network of cells () connected to one another via orifices (), the orifices being conformed so that the flow of fluid caused by the consumption of fluid necessary for the use of the vehicle exhibits only pressure drops which do not affect the use, and being conformed so that, in the event of rupture of one or more cells (), the leakage flow causes sufficiently large pressure drops to limit the flow thereof.
