FUEL CHARGING OR ELECTRICITY CHARGING PORT LID LOCK AND FUEL CHARGING OR ELECTRICITY CHARGING PORT LID ASSEMBLY
20190047428 · 2019-02-14 · ·

Fuel charging or electricity charging port lid lock includes an elevating shaft provided with an elevating thread on an exterior wall thereof. The port lid lock also includes a worm gear configured to drive the elevating shaft. The worm gear is sleeved outside of the elevating shaft. The port lid lock also includes a worm configured to drive the worm gear. The elevating shaft is configured to be capable of moving up and moving down along an axial direction of the elevating shaft and rotating about the axial direction of the elevating shaft when driven by the worm. A head portion of the elevating shaft is used to drive a fuel charging or electricity charging port lid so as to control the opening and closing of the fuel charging or electricity charging port lid.

Reaction force output device

Oil cooler

An oil cooler for cooling an oil with a cooling water, the oil being for lubricating a transaxle in a state of being attached to the case for accommodating the transaxle, includes: an oil inlet opening on a mounting surface attached to the case; an oil outlet opening on the mounting surface; a first opening, which is an opening on the mounting surface, for cooling water; and a second opening, which is an opening on a portion other than the mounting surface, for cooling water. Further, a heat exchange is performed between the oil flowing through an oil passage connecting the oil inlet and the oil outlet and the cooling water flowing through a water passage connecting the first opening and the second opening.

Lid lock for refueling or charging port
12539780 · 2026-02-03 · ·

The present disclosure provides a lid lock for a refueling or charging port having: a lifting shaft; a worm wheel; and a worm shaft. The worm wheel and the worm shaft are configured such that the worm shaft rotates in a first direction to drive the worm wheel to rotate, thereby driving the lifting shaft to perform a descending movement in an axial direction of the lifting shaft and then perform a rotational movement to expose a refueling or charging port for supplying fuel or electricity. In some examples, the worm shaft rotates in a second direction to drive the worm wheel to rotate, thereby driving the lifting shaft to perform a rotational movement and then perform an ascending movement in the axial direction of the lifting shaft to close the refueling or charging port. The present disclosure provides an internally retractable lid lock for a refueling or charging port. An internal space between an outer sheet metal of a vehicle and a refueling and charging port is fully utilized, so that a lid can be opened in the internal space, which not only is not limited by an external environment, but also reduces the possibility of damaging parts.
