AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing vehicle technologies require additional components like boxes and ducts to cool the ECU, which is inefficient and adds complexity.

Method used

A vehicle design that utilizes a back panel and rear seat to form a wind guiding structure, guiding air through gaps between the rear seat and the back panel to cool the ECU without additional components like ducts.

Benefits of technology

Effectively cools the ECU while minimizing the addition of components, thereby reducing complexity and potential heat trapping.

Abstract

To cool the ECU while limiting the number of additional components. [Solution] The vehicle 100 includes a back panel 13, a rear seat 12, an ECU 14 positioned in the space 1A between the back panel 13 and the rear seat 12, and a heat dissipation fan 15 that discharges the air in the space 1A to the outside of the space 1A. The back panel 13 and the rear seat 12 form an air guide structure 1B that guides the air from outside the space 1A into the space 1A.
