  • Patent number: 10632830
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a motor, a high-voltage device, and a power converter. The motor moves the vehicle. The high-voltage device is disposed inside a vehicle cabin of the vehicle. The power converter is disposed outside the vehicle cabin. The power converter is connected to the motor and the high-voltage device to convert electric power output from the high-voltage device and to supply the converted electric power to the motor. The high-voltage device is arranged to be juxtaposed to the power converter along a front-rear direction of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10033324
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a first and second motors, a high-voltage device, and a power converter. The power converter is disposed between the first and second motors. The power converter is configured to convert the electric power and to supply the converted electric power to the first and second motors. The power converter has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape that has a first side wall, a second side wall opposite to the first side wall, a third side wall, and a fourth side wall opposite to the third side wall. The first connector is provided on the first side wall and is connected to a first three-phase line via which the first motor is electrically connected to the power converter. The second connector is provided on the third side wall and is connected to a second three-phase line via which the second motor is electrically connected to the power converter.

  • Patent number: 5979536
    Abstract: A dynamic variation of a cavity pressure (P, Vac) in a die cavity (17) defined between a stationary die (3) and a movable die (7) is supervised during an injection of molten metal (M) by a pressure supervisory system (27, 29, 43, 45, 53, 75, 83, 95) that includes a pressure detection path (27,37) communicating with the die cavity, a pressure sensor (73) for detecting the cavity pressure through the pressure detection path and a processor (75) for processing detection data of the cavity pressure, and the stationary die (3) is formed with a pressure detection port (27) that constitutes part of the pressure detection path.

  • Patent number: 5957192
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling an injection of a die-casting machine, the apparatus having an open-shut valve for opening and shutting a hydraulic channel through which hydraulic fluid is discharged from a boost cylinder device and a boost cylinder flow-control valve for regulating a flow of the hydraulic fluid discharged from the boost cylinder device. When a highly viscous molten material is injected toward a casting mold and the molten material reaches a gate of the casting mold, an injection resistance is increased. At this time, by regulating the hydraulic channel with the control valves to discharge the hydraulic fluid in accordance with a predetermined program, the boost cylinder device applies further pressure to the injecting piston to assist injection process, thereby preventing inappropriate change in injection speed. Consequently, the open-shut valve is opened to conduct ordinary pressure boosting pressure process.
