Patent number: 10361543Abstract: A water blocking structure of a wire harness and a method for manufacturing the wire harness is provided. The water blocking structure includes a set of wires including a plurality of wires arranged in at least one row and side by side in a direction of a diameter of the wire, and an integrally molded stopper made of a hard resin that is injection-molded at a low-pressure so as to surround a portion of the set of wires in an extending direction of the wires and to have an outer circumferential shape defining portion that conforms to an inner circumferential shape of a wire passage portion into which the set of wires is to be inserted.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2016Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Kimitoshi Makino, Tetsuro Saimoto, Akihito Shibuya, Masataka Yamamoto, Kenji Kinezuka, Shinnya Matsuura, Yasuhiro Suzuki, Takafumi Mori

Patent number: 8597843Abstract: A cooling system for a battery pack which can reduce the number of components, manufacturing cost and an installation space, is provided. The battery pack includes high-voltage electrically conductive paths connected to a positive electrode and a negative electrode thereof, respectively. The high-voltage electrically conductive path connected to the positive electrode serves as a cooling member. The high-voltage electrically conductive path connected to the positive electrode is arranged along the battery pack to absorb heat generated at the battery pack and dissipate the absorbed heat at a location distant from the battery pack. The invention takes an advantage of the superior heat conductivity of the high-voltage electrically conductive path to cool down the battery pack.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2010Date of Patent: December 3, 2013Assignee: Yazaki CorporationInventors: Kouichi Yamamoto, Akihito Shibuya, Hiroki Maegawa
