An inverter is disposed adjacent to a motor. The inverter includes a plurality of power modules, a smoothing capacitor, and busbars connecting the power modules and the smoothing capacitor. The plurality of power modules are disposed to be arranged along the periphery of the smoothing capacitor. The smoothing capacitor is disposed at a central portion of the inverter and also disposed in the inner portion of the inverter such that the smoothing capacitor and each of the power modules are arranged on the same plane.

A compressor system includes: a first compressor including a first casing having a cylindrical shape, and a first bundle capable of being inserted into and pulled out from the first casing in an axial direction of the first casing; and a second compressor including a second casing having a cylindrical shape, and a second bundle capable of being inserted into and pulled out from the second casing in an axial direction of the second casing. The first and second compressors are arranged to face each other to cause pullout directions of the respective bundles to be opposite to each other. A maintenance space shareable for insertion and pullout operations of the first bundle and insertion and pullout operations of the second bundle is interposed between the first bundle and the second bundle, and is available for the bundle under the insertion and pullout operations.

A compressor includes: an upper half casing having upper half casing parting planes; upper half diaphragms configured to be disposed on an inner circumferential side of the upper half casing and having upper half diaphragm parting planes; and upper half position regulating parts that regulate positions of the upper half casing and the upper half diaphragms. The upper half position regulating parts are fixed to at least one of the upper half casing and one of the upper half diaphragms, and have upper half abutting members at which upper half abutting surfaces, each of which comes into contact with an upper half casing recessed surface of the upper half casing and an upper half diaphragm recessed surface of the upper half diaphragm, are formed.

A centrifugal compressor bundle that is provided with a bundle main body in which is formed an annular intake flow channel (FC) that is centered on an axis line (O) and that leads a process gas (G) into a flow channel (FC) of an impeller, and in which is also formed an annular discharge flow channel (FC) that is centered on the axis line (O) and that discharges the process gas (G) from the flow channel (FC) of the impeller. The bundle main body has a plurality of diaphragms that are aligned in the direction of the axis line (O) and that are bonded to each other. From among the plurality of diaphragms, an intake diaphragm in which the intake flow channel (FC) is formed is partitioned so as to have an upper-half part and a lower-half part that sandwich, from above and below, a horizontal plane that includes the axis line (O). The upper-half part and the lower-half part have the same rigidity in the direction of the axis line (O).

A centrifugal compressor casing, comprising a bundle which rotatably supports a rotating shaft, and an impeller fixed to the rotating shaft and that rotates with the rotating shaft about an axis of the rotating shaft, and in which an annular suction flow channel centered on the axis introduces fluid into the flow channel of the impeller, and an annular discharge flow channel centered on the axis that discharges the fluid from the flow channel of the impeller, are formed; a casing main body which covers the bundle from the outer circumferential side; and a volute piece which is provided on an inner surface of the casing main body in the discharge flow channel.

An assembling and disassembling device for a compressor has a substantially cylindrical bundle that is received insertably and removably on an inner circumferential surface of a substantially tubular compressor casing that is mounted horizontally and further includes: a plate-like member that is provided on an axial end portion of the bundle at an opposite side of an insertion direction so as to protrude outward in a radial direction of the bundle and a threaded-rod member that inserts and removes the bundle connected to the plate-like member into and from the compressor casing by being screwed into a threaded hole provided in the plate-like member and being rotated.

An exhaust purification system has an upstream exhaust gas sensor and a downstream exhaust gas sensor disposed downstream of a catalytic device. Each sensor detects an oxygen concentration in exhaust gases and provides an output which inverts between a lean state, representative of a lean air/fuel ratio, and a rich state, representative of a rich air/fuel ratio, according to oxygen concentrations. The upstream exhaust sensor is determined to have deteriorated when an output from the upstream exhaust sensor is kept in a predetermined correlation with an output from the downstream exhaust sensor while the output from the downstream exhaust sensor remains the same.

A vehicle equipped with four-wheel drive has a transfer case including a center-differential which delivers driving power to both front and rear axle assemblies when needed and is shiftable between a two-wheel and a four-wheel drive mode of operation and between a differential-locked and a differential-unlocked drive mode of operation. A free wheeling drive mechanism with a clutch member is incorporated in an output shaft of an axle differential in association with wheels non-driven in the two-wheel drive mode of operation and is adapted to disconnect when the vehicle is in the two-wheel drive mode of operation. A controller causes a forced drive mode shift of the center-differential from the four-wheel differential-underlined drive mode of operation either to the four-wheel differential-locked or to the two-wheel drive mode of operation when the disconnection of the free-wheeling drive mechanism is detected while the vehicle is in the four-wheel differential-unlocked drive mode of operation.
