What is claimed is: 1. A sub-frame structure, which mounts a fuel cell thereon and is supported by a vehicle body, the sub-frame structure comprising: front and rear cross members which support front and rear ends of the fuel cell on upper surfaces thereof and extend in a vehicle width direction; an intermediate cross member that is provided between the front and rear cross members and extends in the vehicle width direction; and a pair of side members that connects the front and rear cross members and the intermediate cross member, and extends along side surfaces of the fuel cell, wherein a space having a predetermined size is formed between (a) a portion of the intermediate cross member, which is provided between the pair of side members, and (b) a lower surface of the fuel cell. 2. The sub-frame structure according to claim 1, wherein the portion of the intermediate cross member bends downward when receiving a side collision load. 3. The sub-frame structure according to claim 1, wherein the front cross member extends outward in the vehicle width direction, and is connected to a vehicle body frame provided in the vehicle body. 4. The sub-frame structure according to claim 1, wherein the intermediate cross member includes an intermediate beam that has a horizontal plate member extending between the pair of side members. 5. The sub-frame structure according to claim 4, wherein the intermediate cross member further includes an outer beam that has a closed cross-sectional shape at an outside of the intermediate beam in the vehicle width direction. 6. The sub-frame structure according to claim 5, wherein the outer beam is connected to the vehicle body frame. 7. The sub-frame structure according to claim 5, wherein the outer beam is connected to a side surface of the side member, and the intermediate beam is connected to a lower surface of the side member. 8. The sub-frame structure according to claim 4, wherein the intermediate beam includes a bead that protrudes downward and extends in the vehicle width direction. 9. The sub-frame structure according to claim 4, wherein the intermediate beam protrudes downward along the vehicle width direction. 10. The sub-frame structure according to claim 4, wherein the intermediate beam includes a notch at the upper surface thereof. 11. The sub-frame structure according to claim 1, wherein the fuel cell is unconnected with the intermediate cross member.
