    Abstract: A frame for a plastic tank for a motor vehicle, containing at least one means for attaching an internal reinforcing element of the plastic tank which is intended to connect two opposite walls of said plastic tank. The at least one means for attaching the internal reinforcing element includes at least one first structure configured to snap-fit at least a portion of the internal reinforcing element. The at least one first structure contains at least two bodies that are movable relative to each other. The at least two bodies are provided with a holding means configured to hold the internal reinforcing element in a direction opposite to a snap-fitting direction, and at least one stop element, separate from the at least two bodies, protruding in a direction opposite to the snap-fitting direction in order to provide a stop for the internal reinforcing element when said element is snap-fit into place.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a vehicle system (80) configured for injecting an aqueous solution in an air intake line (12) upstream of a combustion chamber (14) of an internal combustion engine, or in the combustion chamber (14) of the internal combustion engine, said vehicle system (80) comprising the following constituents: ⋅a tank (16) to store an aqueous solution; ⋅a pump (18); ⋅an air intake line (12) upstream of a combustion chamber (14) of an internal combustion engine; ⋅one or more injectors (20) configured for injecting aqueous solution in the air intake line (12), in the combustion chamber (14) or both; ⋅a feed line (22) configured in for feeding said injector (20) with aqueous solution pumped by the pump (18). In the vehicle system, at least a portion of at least one of the vehicle system constituents (16, 18, 12, 20, 22) or of a tank (16) component (24) is made of a polymer material. The polymer material—comprises an effective amount of at least one antimicrobial agent, or—has on its surface a surface coating containing at least one antimicrobial agent, the surface coating comprising between 0.001% by weight and 0.25% by weight of the at least one antimicrobial agent.

    Abstract: A vehicle system includes a tank for storing an aqueous solution; and a UV light decontamination module configured for decontaminating aqueous solution stored in the tank. The UV light decontamination module is arranged in a wall of the tank. The UV light decontamination module includes a light source compartment which is accessible from an external area outside of the tank; and a light transmission member configured to transmit UV light from the light source compartment to a liquid space in fluid communication with aqueous solution stored in the tank. The light source compartment includes a light source to emit UV light through the light transmission member to the liquid space.
