Publication number: 20140311543Abstract: To produce a temperature difference in the thermoelectric conversion module, a tabular member of the cooling side arranged side of the thermoelectric conversion module is fitted in a uniform pressed condition on the thermoelectric conversion module. In the airtight container in which the flow tube penetrates the housing and the thermoelectric conversion module is arranged in the reduced pressure space between the housing and the flow tube, a tabular member of the cooling side of the housing corresponding to the thermoelectric conversion module is formed by the thin plate that is flexible, and the thermoelectric conversion module is sandwiched between the thin plate and the flow tube. The thin plate contacts the thermoelectric conversion module in a pressed condition by reducing pressure in the reduced pressure space, and the thin plate deforms by following the shape of the thermoelectric conversion module and fits due to its flexibility.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2014Publication date: October 23, 2014Applicants: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD., HITACHI CHEMICAL COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Takahiro JINUSHI, Masanao TOMINAGA, Zenzo ISHIJIMA, Masayoshi MORI, Takeshi YAMAGAMI, Hiroshi MATSUDA, Shiyouhei YAMASHITA
