Abstract: A vehicle outside air intake structure configured to supply an outside air to an in-vehicle battery to be stored in an underfloor space of a vehicle body of a vehicle includes: an outside air intake port at a front part of the vehicle body; a front trunk in a chamber of the vehicle body; an opening-and-closing lid configured to block an upper surface opening of the front trunk so as to be openable; a first air passage communicating with the outside air intake port, and provided between a front hood of the vehicle body and the opening-and-closing lid; and a second air passage communicating with both of the first air passage and the underfloor space, and provided rearward of the front trunk. The outside air introduced from the outside air intake port is to be blown through the first air passage and the second air passage into the underfloor space.

Abstract: A vehicle battery cooling apparatus configured to cool a battery mounted on a vehicle includes a first fluid circuit and a second fluid circuit. In the first fluid circuit, a first cooling fluid to cool the battery is to be circulated while the vehicle is traveling. In a second fluid circuit, a second cooling fluid to cool the battery is to be circulated while the battery is being charged. The first fluid circuit and the second fluid circuit are independent from each other.

Abstract: A bundling suspension wire includes: a suspension wire that includes a supporting wire and a coat coating the supporting wire; a hanger member that is suspended from the suspension wire and into which a cable is configured to be inserted; and wire threading cords that are inserted into the hanger member.

Abstract: A battery cooling structure for a vehicle includes a housing case including a housing part and a cover having an intake hole, the housing case having an internal space as a placement space in which a battery module is disposed; a first duct positioned outside the housing case and provided with a first communicating part that communicates with the intake hole; and a second duct positioned inside the housing case and provided with a second communicating part that communicates with the intake hole. The battery module is provided with battery cells and a high-voltage component that couples the battery cells. Cooling air flows from the first duct to the battery module via the intake hole and the second duct. The first duct is configured to be displaced relative to the second duct when an impact is applied to the first duct due to a collision of the vehicle.

Abstract: A cooling structure for a battery mounted on a vehicle includes a battery assembly, an air inlet, a heat exchanger, and a cooling passage. The battery assembly includes battery modules that are arranged along a front-rear direction of the vehicle. The air inlet is positioned on ahead of the battery assembly in the front-rear direction. The air inlet is configured to allow outside air to blow through the air inlet during traveling of the vehicle. The cooling passage is configured to allow a heating medium for cooling the battery modules to circulate between the battery assembly and the heat exchanger. The battery assembly is configured so that a battery module of the battery modules positioned closer to a rear of the vehicle in the front-rear direction is more cooled by the heating medium.

Abstract: A housing unit includes: a linear material; and a housing body that houses the linear material. In the housing body, winding regions in which the linear material is wound are disposed in a circumferential direction. The linear material is wound in a figure eight in a first region pair constituted by a pair of the winding regions. The linear material is wound in a figure eight in a second region pair constituted by a pair of the winding regions that are different from the winding regions constituting the first region pair.

Abstract: A bundling suspension wire includes: a suspension wire that includes a supporting wire and a coat coating the supporting wire; a hanger member that is suspended from the suspension wire and into which a cable is configured to be inserted; and wire threading cords that are inserted into the hanger member.

Abstract: A method of exposing a core of an optical fiber cable that includes: a core including an optical fiber; a wrapping tube wrapping the core; a jacket housing the core and the wrapping tube; and a tension-resisting member of a Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) embedded in the jacket, includes: making a cut in a circumferential direction in the jacket at a position closer to a first end portion of the optical fiber cable than to a second end portion of the optical fiber cable in a longitudinal direction; bending the optical fiber cable at a portion having the cut and fracturing the tension-resisting member; and removing a removal portion of the jacket that is disposed between the cut and the first end portion.
