Abstract: Provided is an air conditioner configured such that the inside of an indoor unit is dried while an increase in a humidity in a room is suppressed. The air conditioner of the present invention includes an outdoor unit and an indoor unit having an indoor heat exchanger and a decompression device. The indoor heat exchanger has a first heat exchange portion and a second heat exchange portion. The decompression device is connected to the first heat exchange portion and the second heat exchange portion. This air conditioner performs cooling operation or dehumidifying operation in which the first heat exchange portion and the second heat exchange portion function as evaporators and reheat dehumidifying operation in which the first heat exchange portion functions as a condenser and the second heat exchange portion functions as the evaporator.

Abstract: A battery casing for receiving a battery for driving an electric vehicle, including: a tray member made from a resin and supporting the battery; a support member provided under a lower face of the tray member and supporting the tray member from a bottom thereof; a standing wall provided so as to stand in the tray member; and a sheet metal tray member made from a sheet metal and placed on the tray member. The sheet metal tray member includes a plurality of sheet metal recesses that receive the battery and a sheet metal flange placed on an upper face of the standing wall. The standing wall includes a through hole formed through the standing wall in a standing direction of the standing wall. The support member and the sheet metal flange are fastened to the tray member by a sheet metal fastening member provided through the through hole.

Abstract: A battery case comprises a tray member (20), a cover member (22), a first holding member (24) of a metal arranged to contact a tray flange (32) with its outer circumferential edge portion projecting outward from the tray flange by a predetermined length, a second holding member (26) of a metal arranged to contact a cover flange (36) with its outer circumferential edge portion projecting outward from the cover flange by a predetermined length, and a fastening means (28, 29) fastening the first and second holding members together at a predetermined location outwardly away from the tray and cover flanges.

Abstract: A battery case for a vehicle includes a tray member (22) made of resin and configured to hold a battery (38), one or more beam members (30) arranged so as to extend in at least one of width and longitudinal directions of the tray member, the one or more beam members supporting the tray member and having a recess (50) formed therein, and a bottom wall (58) interposed between the tray member and the one or more beam members and closing an aperture plane of the recess of the one or more beam members to form a closed cross-section, the bottom wall being constituted by a continuous metal plate underlying a bottom plate of the tray member.

Abstract: A battery case for a vehicle includes a tray member of resin, configured to hold batteries and having a plurality of projections formed on a bottom thereof, and a tray reinforcing member arranged so as to face the outer surface of the tray member and having at least one reinforcing member constituted by a metal plate, the reinforcing member being arranged on one side of the tray reinforcing member facing the tray member and raised from the one side of the tray reinforcing member. A recess is formed at least in the outer surface of one of the projections so as to correspond in position to the reinforcing member, and the reinforcing member is received in the recess.

Abstract: Coupling members include a first coupling portion (X) that couples rear quarter inner members to upper surfaces of rear suspension base members, a second coupling portion (Y) that couples upper surfaces of the rear suspension base members together, which are located on the right and the left in pairs, and a third coupling portion (Z) that joins the second coupling portion to couple the rear quarter inner members together, which are located on the right and the left in pairs, the coupling member being integrally formed, and there is formed a bulkhead structure in a portion surrounded by the first, second and third coupling portions.

Abstract: A vehicle has a shoulder anchor mounting structure. In the shoulder anchor mounting structure, a side roof rail extending in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle at a roof side of the vehicle is constructed such that an inner member and an outer member thereof form a closed section. A first reinforcement that partitions the closed section is interposed between the inner member and the outer member, and a second reinforcement that has a peripheral edge thereof joined to the first reinforcement is interposed between the first reinforcement and the inner member. The second reinforcement has a bottom wall joined to an inner surface wall of the inner member, and a shoulder anchor member of a seat belt is mounted on an abutment part where the bottom wall and the inner member abut on each other.

Abstract: There is provided a vehicle body side structure that is capable of effectively reinforcing door hinge mounting parts of a pillar. In a vehicle skeleton member forming a closed section by an outer side structure and an inner side structure, a side sill reinforcement is disposed inside the closed section. The side sill reinforcement is provided to extend from a front pillar up to a side sill. The door hinge mounting parts are provided on an external surface of the front pillar. The side sill reinforcement is constructed such that a part disposed along the front pillar has a greater plate thickness than a part extending along the side sill. A support part intended for supporting the reverse side of the door hinge mounting part from the inner side of the outer side structure is provided in the part of the side sill reinforcement, which is disposed along the front pillar.
