  • Publication number: 20130108404
    Abstract: An electric work vehicle is provided in which the length of a high-tension cable connecting an electric motor included in a slewing motor with an inverter for controlling the electric motor can be set to be comparatively short. A region on a main frame is divided into three regions consisting of a center region, a first side region, and a second side region, via a first vertical rib and a second vertical rib. A slewing hydraulic motor and a slew assist electric motor, which constitute the slewing motor, are disposed in the center region, and an inverter for controlling the slew assist electric motor is disposed in a position near the second vertical rib in a second tool chamber provided in the second side region.

  • Patent number: 5509192
    Abstract: The present connector press-fitting apparatus comprises a press-fitting head, a press-fitting block, a cylinder, a positional detector, a pin detector, and a controller. The press-fitting head comes into contact with the connector, and attaches to and detaches from this connector. The press-fitting block supports the press-fitting head elastically. The cylinder is capable of moving the press-fitting block freely in a vertical direction, lowers the press-fitting block, and press-fits pins of the connector into a printed board which is arranged at a press-fitting position. The positional detector detects the displacement of the press-fitting head. The pin detector detects at least one pin lead end part projecting below the printed board in accordance with the press-fitting operation of the connector by means of the cylinder.
