  • Patent number: 11142261
    Abstract: The support stiffness of a suspension supporting portion can be improved to reduce floor vibration. Arm front-end supporting portions, each supporting a front end portion of a trailing of a rear suspension, are formed on lower portions of rear frames extending in a vehicle longitudinal direction, and each include a squared U-shape portion including outer, inner and front wall portions, with a rear side being open when viewed from the bottom, and an extending outer wall portion extending from the outer wall portion to in front of the front wall portion. The outer wall portion and extending outer wall portion are formed by a side sill inner portion joined to each rear side frame. Also, each arm front-end supporting portion includes an extending inner wall portion extending from the inner wall portion to in front of the front wall portion and joined to each of the rear side frames.

  • Patent number: 10778131
    Abstract: A control device of a power conversion device for driving a motor includes a current detector and an angle detector. The control devices also includes a motor controller that acquires an electric current and an angle from the respective detectors in a first cycle and drives the motor via the power conversion device, and a toque monitor that acquires the electric current and the angle from the respective detectors in a second cycle and estimates an output torque for determining abnormalities in the motor control. The control device prioritizes acquisition requests for the current and angle from the motor controller and the torque monitor. The torque monitor acquires the current and angle at least twice in the second cycle to acquire a current and angle that are detected at the same time by the detectors.
