  • Patent number: 11316440
    Abstract: A power conversion apparatus has: a heat-generating component; and a first capacitor module and a second capacitor module that are arranged to face each other with the heat-generating component therebetween. The first capacitor module has a first capacitor element, a first case that accommodates the first capacitor element, and a first bus bar with one end connected to the first capacitor element. The second capacitor module has a second capacitor element, a second case that accommodates the second capacitor element, and a second bus bar with one end connected to the second capacitor element. The second bus bar has an intervening part that intervenes between the second capacitor element and the heat-generating component, in a state of being separated from the two.

  • Patent number: 10119836
    Abstract: A detecting unit detects a first output signal and a second output signal, which are output by a first sensor and a second sensor disposed on an actuator, and outputs a first detection signal and a second detection signal to a measurement unit. Based on the first detection signal and the second detection signal, the measurement unit measures a tact time taken for a piston to move from one end to another end of a movement range.

  • Patent number: 9085215
    Abstract: An estimated temperature range is calculated by adding a plus-side temperature width to the temperature detected by a temperature sensor within the cabin of a vehicle and subtracting a minus-side temperature width therefrom, and is displayed on the display of a mobile terminal as a temperature state of the cabin. When cooling is performed, the plus-side temperature width is made greater than the minus-side temperature width. Also, the plus-side temperature width is narrowed with elapse of time from the start of pre-air-conditioning. With this operation, the temperature state of the vehicle cabin from the start of the pre-air-conditioning can be properly communicated to a vehicle user.

  • Publication number: 20130168458
    Abstract: An air conditioner is applied to a vehicle having a first operation mode in which an internal combustion engine-side driving force is more than a motor-side driving force, and a second operation mode in which the motor-side driving force is more than the internal combustion engine-side driving force, as an operation mode for the vehicle. The air conditioner includes a heater for heating air using a coolant of an internal combustion engine as a heat source, and a request signal output portion for outputting a request signal for increasing the number of revolutions of the internal combustion engine to a driving force controller during a heating operation of the vehicle interior. The request signal output portion outputs as the request signal, a signal that makes the number of revolutions increased in the second operation mode higher than that increased in the first operation mode.
