Abstract: An electrical component module is installed in a front section of a vehicle, and connected with a battery unit storing electricity for driving the vehicle. The electrical component module is supported by a vehicle body structure member (cross-member) extending in a lateral direction of the vehicle. The cross-member is closer to a passenger compartment than the electrical component module, and doesn't overlap with the electrical component module when viewed along any horizontal direction perpendicular to a vertical direction of the vehicle. Between the cross-member and the electrical component module, provided is a release mechanism for releasing the support of the electrical component module by the cross-member when receiving an impact from an opposite side to the passenger compartment.

Abstract: Core slots are provided in an outer circumferential side of a rotor core and extend in an axial direction of a rotor shaft. A rotor conductor is a rod-shaped conductor inserted in each of the slots, and after insertion of the rotor conductor in each slot, a flared portion is formed flaring in a slot-transverse direction, and a propping-apart force occurring between the flared portion and both side wall surfaces of the slot fixes the rotor conductor to the slot. In an inner wall of an outer circumferential side of each slot abutting the flared portion, an unevenness is arranged along the axial direction of the rotor shaft.

Abstract: A vehicular cooling device includes an opening, a discharge port, an air channel, and a fan. The opening is formed in a surface parallel to a travelling direction of a vehicle. The discharge port is formed in a surface of the housing and connected to the opening via the air channel. The fan is provided inside the air channel. First blockers are spaced apart in the travelling direction in the opening. Each first blocker extends in a direction perpendicular to both the travelling direction and an inflow direction of the outside air, and includes first and second members. The first member is a plate-like member having a main surface intersecting the travelling direction. The first member and the second member are symmetric with respect to a plane perpendicular to the travelling direction, and have a travelling-direction spacing therebetween that increases along the inflow direction of the outside air.
