Patent ID: 7975788

Claim:
A moving body with fuel cells that are mounted thereon as a power source and generate electric power with production of water as a by-product, said moving body comprising: a water reservoir that accumulates therein water produced by the fuel cells; a release module that releases the water produced by the fuel cells and the water accumulated in said water reservoir via at least one water outlet from outer surfaces of said moving body to the atmosphere; a status detection module that detects a status of said moving body; and a release control module that controls said release module to regulate release of the water to the atmosphere in response to the detected status; and wherein said status detection module detects a moving state of said moving body, and said release control module controls said release module to restrict release of the water in the moving state of said moving body detected by said status detection module, compared with release of the water in a stop state of said moving body, wherein said release control module controls said release module to release the water within a first release quantity in response to detection of a stop state of said moving body by said status detection module, while controlling said release module to release the water within a second release quantity, which is less than the first release quantity, in response to detection of a moving state of said moving body by said status detection module.
