Embodiment Construction

[0021] This section describes a fixing structure of an inverter of an electrically driven vehicle as a typical example of the fixing structure described in the present invention. Important devices such as an inverter, an engine (motor), and a gearbox are fixed to a frame for supporting the body. Specifically, in many vehicles, two frames extending in the front-rear direction are provided under a compartment (an engine compartment at the front of the vehicle), and an inverter and a motor are fixed to the frames. The two frames extending in the front-to-back direction are called stringers. Where some devices are secured to longitudinal beams extending in the fore-and-aft direction, the devices are aligned in the fore-and-aft direction. In a typical example, the engine (motor) is fixed between two side beams, and the inverter is fixed to one of the side beams in the front of the engine. Specifically, the engine (motor) is large, and further, becomes a vibration source. Therefo...

Abstract

Provided is a fixing structure of an electric apparatus in an engine compartment provided in a front portion of a vehicle. The fixing structure includes a tray, a removal mechanism, and a protecting plate. The tray is fixed in the engine compartment and configured such that the electric apparatus is placed thereon. The removal mechanism is configured to remove the electric apparatus from the tray when the electric apparatus receives a predetermined impact force or more from a front side of the vehicle. The protecting plate is attached to the electric apparatus, and is configured to abut with a structural object placed at a rear side of the vehicle relative to the electric apparatus when the electric apparatus is removed from the tray due to the impact force so as to move rearward.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fixing structure for fixing electrical equipment to a vehicle. Specifically, the present invention relates to a fixing structure of electrical equipment provided in an engine compartment in the front of a vehicle. It should be appreciated that the techniques described in this disclosure can be applied to electrically driven vehicles that do not include an engine. Even in the case of an electrically driven vehicle that does not include an engine, the space in the front of the vehicle where a drive motor (drive source) is provided is called an "engine compartment" according to practice in the automotive field. In addition, in this specification, the "engine compartment in the front of the vehicle" may be simply referred to as the "compartment" in order to simplify the description. Background technique [0002] In recent years, vehicles are equipped with various electric devices. The casings of these electrical equipment are ...
