Abstract: Inside of a swing arm (30) that pivotally supports a rear wheel (WR) of an electric two-wheeled vehicle (1) and that is freely swingably attached to a vehicle body, a battery (56), an electric motor (M) for driving the rear wheel (WR), and a board (50) serving as a control device for controlling the electric motor (M) are equipped. Coupling a throttle grip (80) and a throttle position sensor (60) by physical transmission means (62, 85, 86) therebetween allows a configuration so that a turning angle of the throttle grip (80) can be detected, and the throttle position sensor (60) is attached to the board (50). The board (50) is disposed with a planar portion oriented in a vehicle width direction.

Abstract: A battery configured as a plurality of battery cells for an electric vehicle with one board for supplying electric power to an electric motor. Each battery cell is provided with positive and negative electrodes on the side of the board. The board is provided with a plurality of cell connecting parts for transmitting cell information of each battery cell corresponding to each electrode. Sensor wiring connects each electrode and each cell connecting part. Wiring is formed are arranged over the board that radiates heat via an insulating adhesive. A heating element is mounted on a first heat-conduction member formed on a top face of the uppermost wiring board. A second heat-conduction member is formed on the downside of the lowermost wiring board. The first heat-conduction member and the second heat-conduction member are touched via a third heat-conduction member arranged in a through hole bored through each wiring board.

Abstract: Provided is a swing arm device for an electric two- or three-wheeled vehicle that can be reduced in the number of components for a reduction in weight while being mounted compact in an electric vehicle for which a swing arm of an electric vehicle includes a battery and a charger. The swing arm device for an electric two- or three-wheeled vehicle to be fitted on an electric vehicle includes a swing arm (30) one end of which is coupled to a swing shaft and the other end of which supports a rear wheel (WR), an electric motor (M) placed at the other end side of the swing arm (30) and for driving the rear wheel (WR), and a battery (56) for supplying electric power to the electric motor (M), and a charger (200) for charging the battery (56) is incorporated in the swing arm (30).

Abstract: A battery module mounting structure includes a housing structure housing a battery supplying electric power to the electric motor of a motor-driven two-wheeled vehicle and a PDU controlling the electric motor. The housing case is configured to be mountable to and dismountable from the swing arm with the electric motor and a control substrate housed in the housing case. The swing arm is formed as a cantilever type in which an arm portion disposed on the vehicle-widthwise right or left of a rear wheel supports the rear wheel. The battery shaped in a rectangular parallelepiped is housed in the housing case with a longitudinal direction thereof facing in a vehicle-width direction. The housing case is mounted from a vehicle-widthwise inside on a lateral surface of a swing arm housing at a position vehicle-body-forward of the rear wheel and vehicle-body-rearward of a through-hole, the swing arm housing supporting the arm portion.

Abstract: A saddle riding type, electric vehicle includes a swing arm removably and vertically swingably supported on a vehicle body frame, and an electric motor, a battery for supplying the electric motor with electric power, and a control unit for controlling the electric motor. The electric motor, the battery, and the control unit are disposed on the swing arm. The swing arm integrally provides, forwardly of a rear wheel, a bulkhead for accommodating a battery in isolation from an electric motor and a control unit. The bulkhead has an opening portion that faces terminals disposed on the battery. A battery accommodating portion integrally provides a partition wall extending in a vehicle width direction to form a plurality of accommodating chambers with each containing one of a plurality of batteries. A stand disposed downwardly of the partition wall is supported rotatably on a bottom wall of the battery accommodating portion.

Abstract: A conductor wire is extrusion coated with a polyethylene resin containing a copolymer comprising predominantly ethylene and an unsaturated silane compound having the formula R Si R'.sub.n Y.sub.3-n, wherein: R is an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbyl group or hydrocarbyloxy group; R' is an aliphatic saturated hydrocarbyl group; Y is a hydrolyzable organic group; and n is zero, 1, or 2, thereby to fabricate a coated wire which is then caused to contact water in the presence of a silanol condensation catalyst in a crosslinking process step.
