Abstract: In a battery pack structure for electric vehicles that a battery module, a junction box, and a battery controller for battery management are mounted in a battery-pack-case internal space, clearances, ensured when the battery module is mounted in the case internal space, are configured as temperature-adjustment air passages through which temperature-adjusting air flows. The junction box and the battery controller are arranged at positions spaced apart from each other and facing one straight passage part of the temperature-adjustment air passages. Furthermore, a weak-electric harness, via which the junction box and the battery controller are connected to each other, is wired along the straight passage part, thus ensuring smooth flow of temperature-adjusting air, while improving both the harness-wiring workability and the harness durability.

Abstract: A battery pack temperature control structure is provided for an electric vehicle, and basically includes first and second battery modules, a temperature control unit and an air duct. The first and second battery modules are disposed inside a battery pack case. The second battery module has a lower height than the first battery module. The temperature control unit has an air blowing port for blowing a temperature control air to the first and second battery modules. The air duct is connected to the air blowing port of the temperature control unit, and has an air blowout opening arranged to blow out the temperature control air to a front of the first battery module at a location above the top of the second battery module. The air blowout opening-extends in a vehicle width direction and blows out the temperature control air toward the first battery module.

Abstract: A battery pack temperature control structure is provided for an electric vehicle, and basically includes a battery module, a heavy-current disconnecting switch and a temperature control unit. The battery module is mounted in an inner space of the battery pack case. The heavy-current disconnecting switch disconnects, by a manual operation, a battery high-power circuit in the battery module. The temperature control unit is mounted in the inner space of the battery pack case for producing a temperature-controlled air to be blown to the battery module. The heavy-current disconnecting switch is disposed in an upper space position within the inner space of the battery pack case. The temperature control unit is disposed in a space position that is lower than the heavy-current disconnecting switch and that overlaps with the heavy-current disconnecting switch in the vehicle vertical direction.

Abstract: A wiring structure includes brake cable, a shift selection device, and a support bracket. The brake cable links a foot-operated operation pedal disposed in front of a seat and brake units provided to rear wheels rearward of the seat and is directed toward a top surface of a floor tunnel in front of the seat in the vehicle. The shift selection device outputs a signal for switching a driving range position and is supported by the support bracket in a position to the side of the seat, so as to allow a cable insertion space to be disposed between the shift selection device and the top surface of the floor tunnel. The brake cable is wired so as to pass through the cable insertion space.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to secure both of vehicle body floor upper space and battery mounting space, in setting of a mounting position of a high-power cut-off switch to a battery pack case. Battery pack case 1 having battery modules 2 and SD switch 4 that cuts off battery high-power circuit by manual operation is arranged in a lower position of vehicle body floor 100. In this battery pack structure for electric vehicle, an inside space of the battery pack case 1 is divided into two areas in a vehicle front-and-rear direction, and one of the two areas is defined as a battery module mounting area 7. SD switch 4 is provided in an upper surface position of the case that covers an electrical component mounting area 8, which is the other area, located on a vehicle front side with respect to battery module mounting area 7.

Abstract: A high-voltage harness connection structure for an electrically driven vehicle, having a battery pack disposed in an underfloor position of the vehicle and having a battery-side high-voltage connector terminal disposed on a front end thereof, a power unit arranged in a vehicle forward position with respect to the battery pack and having a unit-side high-voltage connector terminal disposed thereon, and a high-voltage harness that connects the battery-side high-voltage connector terminal and the unit-side high-voltage connector terminal. The harness connection surface of the battery-side high-voltage connector terminal forms a harness connection inclined surface so that the high-voltage harness is connected to be inclined outwardly in a vehicle width direction with respect to a vehicle longitudinal direction, and routed in an outwardly bent state in the vehicle width direction with respect to the vehicle longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A harness routing structure for an electric vehicle is provided with a floor panel, a below-floor component, an above-floor component and a harness. The floor panel partitions a cabin space and a below-floor space. The floor panel has a harness through-hole. The below-floor component is disposed below the floor panel. The above-floor component is disposed above the floor panel and further toward a front of the vehicle than the below-floor component. The harness electrically connects the below-floor component and the above-floor component. The harness runs through the through-hole. The harness through-hole is located, with respect to a vehicle-lengthwise direction of the floor panel, in an intermediate position between a below-floor harness connection position of the below-floor component to a first end of the harness and an above-floor harness connection position of the above-floor component to a second end of the harness.
