Abstract: A motor-driven compressor, a housing structure for a motor-driven compressor, and a method of installing a soundproof cover on a motor-driven compressor are provided. A soundproof cover includes layers that include a first layer and a second layer. The first layer is placed over a housing, and the second layer is placed over the first layer. Each of the layers includes a first segment and a second segment. A second selection layer is located inward of a first selection layer. A boundary in the second selection layer is located above the boundary of the first selection layer.

Abstract: Provided is a structure for an upper part of a vehicle body, the structure being formed by a rail inner, an rail outer joined to a vehicle outer side of the rail inner to form a closed cross-section, and a rail stiffener sandwiched between the rail inner and the rail outer to partition the closed cross-section, the structure being provided with a roof side rail extended in a front-rear direction on an upper side of a side part of a vehicle body, the structure including: a fastened portion attached to a vehicle outer side of the rail stiffener; a collar interposed between the rail inner and the rail stiffener; and a fastening unit inserted through the collar from a vehicle inner side of the rail inner and fastened to the fastened portion.

Abstract: A structure for a side portion of a vehicle, the structure having a bulkhead provided within a closed cross-section of a center pillar. The bulkhead is disposed so as to be superposed on the lapping section of a lower door beam in the width direction of the vehicle and has a movement restriction section capable of supporting the lapping section. When the lower door beam is moved by a load inputted in the lower door beam from a side of the vehicle, the movement restriction section supports the lapping section of the lower door beam to restrict the movement of the lapping section in the vertical direction.
