ABSTRACT:
A compressed natural gas cylinder mounting assembly is disclosed for supporting and coupling a compressed natural gas cylinder to the underside of a natural gas vehicle. The compressed natural gas cylinder mounting assembly has a pair of mounting bracket assemblies with one mounting bracket assembly coupled to each end of the compressed natural gas cylinder. Each of the mounting bracket assemblies has a pair of structural beams which are coupled to the underside of the vehicle and a pair of vertical mounting plates coupled to the ends of the structural beams and then attached to the underside of the vehicle. Each of the mounting brackets includes a cylinder brace with a pair of clamping bands for engaging and encircling the compressed natural gas cylinder. In an alternate embodiment, the structural beams are extendible.
