Publication number: 20230034353Abstract: A power distribution device has a resin part covering a portion of a power line and a portion of a signal line and having a switch adjacent to one surface of the resin part, and a cooling part disposed adjacent to a back surface of the resin part opposite to the one surface. The power line and the signal line each have, inside the resin part, a laid-out portion extending in a planar direction orthogonal to an arrangement direction in which the one surface and the back surface are arranged, and a led-out portion extending from the laid-out portion toward the one surface. The laid-out portion of the power line and the laid-out portion of the signal line are located in a projection area of the cooling unit projected in the arrangement direction, and are separated from each other and arranged in the arrangement direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Applicant: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Tatsuki NISHIMATA, Takashi KAWASHIMA, Hajime OYANAGI

Patent number: 7913787Abstract: A power source pack is arranged on a floor in such a manner that the vehicle front side is positioned higher than the vehicle rear side. Specifically, the front side of the power source pack is placed on a cross member qualified as a structural member that is fixed to traverse the vehicle on the floor. By such a configuration, it is possible to provide a structure for mounting a power source pack that is configured to be less vulnerable to the heat penetrating from a lower surface of the floor to the interior of a cabin even if the power source pack is arranged on the floor.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2007Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Ko Watanabe, Hajime Oyanagi

Publication number: 20080318119Abstract: In a battery pack, battery pack flange portions are provided at opposing sides of a battery assembly along a stacking direction of battery modules, so as to project laterally. The battery module flange portions are interposed between an upper case flange portion and a lower case flange portion when the upper case flange portion and the lower case flange portion are overlaid, and fastened and fixed concurrently by bolts. The bolts are also used in fixing the battery pack to a vehicle. With this configuration, a battery pack that can reduce assembly steps with the bolts and the like to improve efficiency in the fastening work can be provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2006Publication date: December 25, 2008Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Ko Watanabe, Hajime Oyanagi
