Abstract: An electrical component module is installed in a front section of a vehicle, and connected with a battery unit storing electricity for driving the vehicle. The electrical component module is supported by a vehicle body structure member (cross-member) extending in a lateral direction of the vehicle. The cross-member is closer to a passenger compartment than the electrical component module, and doesn't overlap with the electrical component module when viewed along any horizontal direction perpendicular to a vertical direction of the vehicle. Between the cross-member and the electrical component module, provided is a release mechanism for releasing the support of the electrical component module by the cross-member when receiving an impact from an opposite side to the passenger compartment.

Abstract: A honeycomb structure body has an inner side base section and an outer side base section having a cylindrical shape. Inner side cells are formed in the inner side base section at a constant cell density. Outer side cells are formed in the outer side base section. A cell density of the outer side cells varies a radius direction. The outer side cells are formed on the basis of a relational equation of y=a(x?b)n+c, where x is a distance on the outer side base section measured from a central point on a radial cross section, y indicates the number of the outer side cells per one cm2 at the distance x, a is a negative constant, b is a radius of the inner periphery of the outer side base section, c is the number of the inner side cells per one cm2, and n is a degree.

Abstract: A honeycomb structure body has a cylindrical outer peripheral wall, partition walls and cells. The cells are surrounded by the partition walls. In a radial cross section of the honeycomb structure body, the cells is divided into cell density sections having different cell densities formed from a central section to the outer peripheral wall. A boundary wall is formed between two cell density sections. Each cell density section has boundary cells and interior cells. The boundary cells are in contact with the boundary wall. The interior cells are not in contact with the boundary wall. In the radial cross section of the honeycomb structure body, an inscribed circle of each of the boundary cells has a diameter of not less than 0.5 mm. Further, an inscribed circle of an interior cell adjacent to the boundary cell also has a diameter of not less than 0.5 mm.

Abstract: An external heat exchanger and the accumulator tank are disposed in the circulation path of a heat medium. In the air conditioner for a vehicle, the external heat exchanger is disposed in a sideways position between member front ends of a pair of left and right side members, extending in the vehicle longitudinal direction, with the heat-exchanging surface facing forward in the vehicle. The accumulator tank is disposed in a front corner area that is formed in a position that is to the outside in the vehicle width direction from the member front end of one side member of the pair of left and right side members, and that is in front of a vehicle wheel house covering a front tire.
