  • Publication number: 20250112290
    Abstract: A vehicle battery cooling system cools a battery in a vehicle, by supplying air in a vehicle compartment of the vehicle to a battery compartment containing the battery, using a battery cooling fan. The vehicle battery cooling system includes first and second temperature sensors and a control apparatus. The first temperature sensor detects a temperature of the battery. The second temperature sensor detects a temperature in the vehicle compartment. The control apparatus controls driving of the battery cooling fan. The control apparatus: estimates an outside air temperature outside the vehicle; estimates an output of a blower fan of an air conditioner in the vehicle, based on a difference between the temperature in the vehicle compartment and the estimated outside air temperature; and controls an output of the battery cooling fan, based on the estimated output of the blower fan of the air conditioner and the temperature of the battery.

  • Publication number: 20250042197
    Abstract: A wheel includes a boss, a rim, and a web. A rim-width center is positioned on a flange side of the rim with respect to a boss-width center. A plate-thickness center line of the web has a linear shape when the wheel is viewed in a longitudinal section. The plate-thickness center line is inclined with respect to a radial direction of the wheel in such a way as to be farther from the flange as the plate-thickness center line extends outward in the radial direction. When a distance in an axial direction of the wheel from a side face of the rim to an outer end of the plate-thickness center line is taken as “Pw” and a length of the rim in the axial direction is taken as “Wr”, Pw/Wr is less than 0.40.

  • Publication number: 20220368231
    Abstract: To provide a controller for power conversion circuit which can maintain the detection value of second voltage at the target value of second voltage without depending on feedback control, when the first voltage is varied. A controller for power conversion circuit changes a control value by feedback control so that the detection value of second voltage approaches a target value of second voltage; calculates a control value for control, by correcting the control value based on the detection value of first voltage so as to correct, in feedforward manner, a change of the control value due to a change of the first voltage if correction of the control value is not performed; and controls on/off the switching device based on the control value for control.
