  • Patent number: 10553330
    Abstract: Provided is an in-wheel motor power cable in which a cross-sectional area of a conductor portion can be sufficiently assured for allowing large current to pass therethrough while avoiding excessively large maximum diameter of the cable. The power cable includes a conductor portion; an insulator configured to cover an outer circumference of the conductor portion; a hollow shield wire configured to cover an outer circumference of the insulator; and a sheath configured to cover an outer circumference of the shield wire. The conductor portion comprises a composite strand obtained by stranding a plurality of wire strands each of which is a strand of a plurality of filaments with no insulating layer, each filament being a tin-plated soft copper wire. The insulator is a soft fluororesin, and the shield wire is a braided copper-foiled yarn cable.

  • Patent number: 9914349
    Abstract: Provided is an in-wheel motor drive device, including a casing configured to hold a motor part, a speed reduction part, and a wheel bearing part, the motor part including; a stator, which is fixed to the casing; a rotation shaft of a motor, which is rotatably supported on the casing through intermediation of rolling bearings; and a rotor, which is mounted to the rotation shaft of the motor. The rolling bearing has a radial internal clearance of from 8 ?m to 25 ?m before being mounted into the motor part. The rotation shaft of the motor is rotatably supported on the casing through intermediation of a plurality of rolling bearings. The rotation shaft of the motor and the rolling bearings configured to support the rotation shaft of the motor are fitted to each other by transition fit or interference fit.

  • Patent number: 9688161
    Abstract: A slip control device for an electric vehicle which accurately determines slippage occurrence with only a rotation angle sensor for motor rotation control and perform rapid control to eliminate the slippage, is provided. A threshold calculation module (21) calculates a normal angular acceleration of a motor depending on a manipulation amount of an accelerator to obtain a threshold, and an angular acceleration calculator (22) differentiates a detection value from a rotation angle sensor (3a) twice to calculate an angular acceleration. A slip determination (23) determines whether a drive wheel (7) has slipped, and a torque limitation (25) limits a torque when a slippage has occurred. The determination (23) determines the angular acceleration and a threshold. The determination (23) counts a number of consecutive times it is determined that the threshold is exceeded, and determines that a slippage has occurred, if the number of consecutive times has reached a set value.

  • Patent number: 7029123
    Abstract: A projector device adapted to project an image-forming beam using a lamp as a light source. The lamp is installed within a rectangular parallelepipedal housing, and an exhaust fan is disposed to the rear of the lamp. The top wall of the housing surrounding the lamp is given an opening pattern asymmetric about the optical axis of the lamp by forming an air inlet opening in a position deviated from the optical axis toward a direction orthogonal to the axis for producing a swirling air current within the housing by operating the exhaust fan. The lamp can be effectively cooled with reduced quantities of air.
