Abstract: An additive manufacturing device includes: an inner light beam radiation device of radiating an inner light beam; an outer light beam radiation device of radiating an outer light beam; and a control device. when a molten pool is irradiated with the outer light beam, the control device controls a power density of the outer light beam representing an output per unit area such that a cooling rate of the molten pool representing a temperature drop per unit time is 540° C./s or less at a freezing point of a carbide binder included in the molten pool, the molten pool being formed by irradiating a material including a hard material and a carbide binder with the inner light beam to melt the material. According to the present disclosure, the additive manufacturing device can prevent cracking and additively manufacture a high-quality shaped object with a simple configuration.

Abstract: A charge control apparatus for an electric vehicle that includes: a traction motor; a traction battery to which charging current is supplied from an external power source and that supplies current to the traction motor; and an electric device actuated by part of the charging current during charging of the traction battery is provided. The charge control apparatus includes: an instruction unit to instruct decrease of load of the electric device in case that the electric device is actuated during charging of the traction battery; a restriction unit to restrict the charging current after instruction of the decrease of load; and a load decreasing unit for decreasing load of the electric device after restricting the charging current.

Abstract: A charge amount display apparatus of an electric vehicle, which enables a driver to be easily aware that a charge amount has been set at a value less than a full charge, is provided. The charge amount display apparatus comprises a control unit 11 for setting a charge limit value which serves as the upper limit of the charge amount of a battery 2; and a display unit 13 for displaying a maximum charge amount, to which the battery 2 can be charged, and the charge limit value. The maximum charge amount is displayed by a segment group 30 composed of a plurality of segments 31 arranged side by side in one direction for representing the charge amount of the battery 2. The segments 31a for a value equal to or lower than the charge limit value, and the segments 31b for a value higher than the charge limit value are displayed in different colors. The segments for a charge amount equal to or lower than the charge limit value are displayed in a first region 21a of a first display region 21 of the display unit 13.

Abstract: There is provide a control unit for an electrically driven vehicle that is charged by an exterior power supply being inserted into a charging inlet that can be closed by an opening and closing device, including a vehicle state determination module that determines whether or not the electrically driven vehicle is in a charging prohibited state, and a warning control module that controls a warning device for issuing a warning to activate the warning device when the electrically driven vehicle satisfies a warning condition, wherein the warning condition is such that the vehicle state determination module determines that the electrically driven vehicle is in the charging prohibited state and that the opening and closing device is switched to an opened state.
