Provided is a mounting structure including an electronic control unit, a plurality of support brackets, a transaxle case, an intermediate bracket protruding from the transaxle case toward a rear side of the vehicle, and an engaging projection. The engaging projection is a projection that is provided to at least one of an upper surface of the intermediate bracket or a bottom surface of the electronic control unit in a region where the intermediate bracket is in surface contact with a mounting surface of the transaxle case, the engaging projection protruding in a direction toward the upper surface of the intermediate bracket and the bottom surface of the electronic control unit. The engaging projection presses the intermediate bracket against the mounting surface of the transaxle case responding to displacement of the electronic control unit at the time of vehicle collision.

Provided is a device control apparatus including a first instrument push apparatus and a touch sensing portion operated by an operation of a user and a controller which controls an operation of a user device based on operations by the first instrument push apparatus and the touch sensing portion. The controller outputs sensing commands with respect to the operations with respect to the first instrument push apparatus and the touch sensing portion. Here, a first sensing command is output by sensing the operation with respect to the first instrument push apparatus, and a second sensing command is output by sensing the operation with respect to the touch sensing portion.

A cradle for a commercial electric vehicle chassis. The cradle for the commercial electric vehicle chassis includes a housing and a bottom access panel. The housing and the bottom access panel are flexibly coupled together at a shared longitudinal edge by a hinge. The housing is formed by a trellis of members and the trellis of members form one or more housing apertures in the structure of the housing.

A vehicle corner module (VCM) is provided for regulating motion of a host vehicle which comprises a vehicle-onboard vehicle-controller. The VCM comprises a sub-frame mountable to a reference frame of the host vehicle; a wheel-hub assembly comprising a wheel-hub; VCM-sub-systems mediating between the sub-frame and the wheel-hub assembly, e.g., a drive subsystem, a steering subsystem, a suspension subsystem and/or a braking subsystem; and an VCM-onboard VCM-controller, comprising one or more processors and a computer-readable medium storing program instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to establish a communication link with a vehicle-controller, including electronically transferring information about the VCM from the VCM-controller to the vehicle-controller, and to perform, in response to an installation of the VCM on a vehicle, a post-installation validation-process that includes validating the VCM-subsystems and communicating a result of the validating to the vehicle-controller.

The case of the drive device is fastened to an engine and includes a first electric motor, a motive power distribution mechanism, a second electric motor, a driven gear mechanism, a first case that houses a differential gear, and a second case (rear cover) that is fastened so as to close an opening opposite to the engine of the first case, and an in-vehicle unit that also serves as a vibration restraining member is disposed at a position overlapping with a line segment that connects the first axis line and the third axis line on the second case (rear cover). As a result, the vibration of the rear cover is reduced by the mass of the in-vehicle unit, so that the generation of noise can be suppressed without increasing the number of components.
