| 20090188739 | VEHICLE ENGINE-MOUNT - An engine mounting device for a motor vehicle having a casing attached to the engine, a flexible annular cylinder disposed inside the casing with a longitudinal axis generally parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle body, a shaft attached to the vehicle body and disposed within the annulus of the flexible cylinder, whereby the casing and the flexible annular can move along the shaft in response to a frontal impact on the vehicle, and a retainer mounted on the shaft and arranged to prevent movement of the casing along the shaft below a predetermined threshold force on the casing. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090211829 | VIBRATON ISOLATION ASSEMBLY - A vibration isolation assembly is disclosed. The vibration isolation assembly comprises a first body member, a second body member, a first isolation member, a second isolation member, and a least one fastener. The first and second body members are configured to matingly engage one another and the first and second isolation members are partially retained by portions of the first and second body members, respectively. The fastener serves to securing the first and second body members together. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090236166 | FRAME STRUCTURE OF AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE - A centroid of bend portions of a front side frame (frame member) is offset to a specified direction of a vehicle width direction (a bending direction of the front side frame) from a centroid of a different portion from the bend portions. Accordingly, a frame structure which can properly provide the bend portion without causing any improper increase of the number of members can be provided. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20100101885 | ELECTRIC VEHICLE - An electric vehicle has a first bracket ( | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100108424 | VEHICLE SAFETY DEVICE - A safety device for a vehicle, capable of relaxing a collision load acting on a colliding body. The safety device ( | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100243362 | IMPACT MEMBER FOR A SADDLE-TYPE VEHICLE, AND VEHICLE INCORPORATING SAME - A saddle-type vehicle is provided with an impact member for deflecting a front wheel sideways in the event of a collision. The saddle-type vehicle includes a body frame having a head pipe for rotatably supporting a steering shaft for the front wheel, main frames extending rearwards from the head pipe, and an engine operatively mounted to the main frames. The impact member is disposed in front of a lower portion of the engine. The impact member includes a support part, which extends forwardly from the engine, and a load-receiving deflector plate mounted to the support part and which is inclined away from a vehicle width direction. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20140216839 | FRONT-END STRUCTURE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A front-end structure of a motor vehicle includes a transverse member and two crash boxes. In addition a transverse reinforcement member is arranged according to the invention, wherein the transverse reinforcement member is supported via coupling beams on a subframe. | 08-07-2014 |
| 20140238765 | ELECTRIC CAR - In an electric car, a power control unit includes: a heat sink that has an electric device fixed thereto and performs a heat exchange with the electric device; and a case that is attached to a surface of the heat sink to which the electric device is fixed and that covers the electric device. A reserve tank that stores a circulation liquid is attached to a front end surface of the heat sink via a bracket, a bulkhead frame that retains a radiator is provided in a vehicle width direction ahead of the reserve tank, the reserve tank is arranged at a position that overlaps the bulkhead frame in a front view, and a front surface of the power control unit has a protruding portion that protrudes forward, at a position that overlaps the reserve tank and the bulkhead frame in a front view. | 08-28-2014 |
| 20140339009 | ELECTRIC VEHICLE - The electric motor control unit of this electric vehicle is disposed at a first primary surface and/or a facing second primary surface of a plate-shaped member disposed along the anterior-posterior direction of the electric vehicle and having a higher rigidity than peripheral components or vehicle-configuring elements. An electricity storage device is connected to the electric motor control unit by means of wiring and is disposed on the vehicle cabin side of the plate-shaped member in the anterior-posterior direction. Furthermore, the electric motor control unit is provided with a low-voltage circuit unit and a high-voltage circuit unit. The high-voltage circuit unit is disposed on the vehicle cabin side in the anterior-posterior direction with respect to the low-voltage circuit unit. | 11-20-2014 |
| 20140360798 | MOTOR VEHICLE PROVIDED WITH A RELEASE SYSTEM TO UNCOUPLE A CROSS MEMBER IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IN THE EVENT OF A FRONT CRASH - A motor vehicle has two upper struts, which project forward from a passenger compartment and are arranged above two lower struts, which extend along respective substantially rectilinear axes inclined from the bottom upwards, going forward; the lower struts have respective intermediate portions with such a variation in cross section to define a preferential bending zone; the rear ends of the lower struts are fixed to a cross member connected to the upper struts by means of two connection members, which are substantially vertical and have respective breakable zones designed so as to break when a given load threshold is exceeded; the motor vehicle also has a powertrain connected to the cross member and to the upper struts by means of supports which are distinct from the connection members and are breakable in the event of a front crash. | 12-11-2014 |
| 20150060179 | VEHICLE FRONT STRUCTURE - A vehicle front structure includes: a power unit provided on a front part of a vehicle; a front side member which is arranged outside the power unit in a vehicle width direction and which extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction; and a load receiving portion which is provided on a side portion on a front side member side of the power unit and which is located inside the front side member in a vehicle width direction while stiffness thereof in the vehicle width direction is higher than other location of the side portion. | 03-05-2015 |
| 20150075890 | ELEMENTS FOR REINFORCEMENT AGAINST EXTERNAL STRESSES FOR A POWER SUPPLY BATTERY - An arrangement for a motor vehicle having an electric or hybrid engine includes a power supply battery and reinforcing elements to protect the battery from external stresses applied to the vehicle in a longitudinal and/or transverse direction of the vehicle, in particular in the event of an impact. The reinforcing elements are separate from the battery and separate from an enclosure of the battery in particular. The battery is attached to the reinforcing elements. First structural elements of the chassis of the vehicle are sandwiched and clamped between the battery and the reinforcing elements. | 03-19-2015 |
