Abstract

The invention provides an electric vehicle which can suppress increase of volume*weight of a beam and IPU (intelligent power unit). The vehicle (V) provided by the invention comprises a first beam (11) extending along a vehicle width direction of the vehicle (V), a second beam (12) arranged behind the first beam (11) and the IPU (20) arranged below a seat (1) of the vehicle (V) and between the first beam (11) and the second beam (12). The vehicle also comprises a third beam (13) disposed above the IPU (20) and used for fixing the seat (1). At least a part of the IPU (20) is arranged in a manner of being contained in an area surrounding the first beam (11), the second beam (12) and the third beam (13).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electric vehicle equipped with a high-voltage electrical component (also referred to as an Intelligent Power Unit (Intelligent Power Unit). Hereinafter, it may be referred to as "IPU.") under the floor. Background technique [0002] In vehicles, in order to protect occupants from side collisions, there are cases where a plurality of beams are provided under seats on which occupants are seated. [0003] In addition, according to the following Patent Document 1, there is disclosed a structure in which the IPU is arranged between the beams under the seat in order to effectively utilize the useless space. [0004] The IPU is a component in which electrical auxiliary components such as a battery module, a blower, and a DC-DC converter for supplying electric power to a motor are housed in a case and integrated.
