  • Patent number: 8981591
    Abstract: A safety device for a high-voltage component including a cover that covers at least a part of the high-voltage component, a low-voltage circuit that controls a conduction/shut-off state of an electric circuit for supplying power to the high-voltage component, and a selecting unit that selects the conduction/shut-off state of the low-voltage circuit by an operation accompanying an attachment/removal work of the cover.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8410365
    Abstract: A wire harness includes a cable and a clamp. The cable has an end portion at which a connection terminal is provided. The connection terminal is electrically connected to a connecting portion. The clamp is attached with the cable so as to be movable with respect to the cable in a direction in which the cable extends. The clamp is fixed to a fixing portion disposed adjacent to the connecting portion in a state that the connection terminal is electrically connected to the connecting portion.

  • Publication number: 20110068622
    Abstract: In a layout structure for a high voltage cable of an electric vehicle, the high voltage cable running from front to back is arranged to be kept towards the center of the vehicle, thereby avoiding damage to the cable even in the event of side impact. The high voltage cable (32) is arranged at a position over a rear floor panel (21) where it vertically overlaps with the fuel tank (26) running centrally in the vehicle width direction (Y) so as to lie along a front/rear center axis (1C) of the vehicle (1). The cable is arranged in such a manner that ahead of the position where the cable overlaps the fuel tank (26), the cable enters an area corresponding to the passenger compartment (4) upon leaving a standard surface of the rear floor panel (21), after which the cable runs towards the front of the vehicle in a region below the standard surface of a front floor panel (20) corresponding to the passenger compartment (4).
