A gasket for sealing a gap between a through hole formed on a wall body and a pipe to be inserted into the through hole, the gasket being provided for the pipe and made of tubular elastic material, the gasket having an inner circumferential lip portion which elastically contacts an outer circumferential face of the pipe; and an outer circumferential lip portion which elastically contacts an inner circumferential face of the through hole; an inner seal area on an inner circumferential side where the inner circumferential lip portion is provided is located at a position so that the inner seal area does not overlap in a radial direction with an outer seal area of an outer circumferential side where the outer circumferential lip portion is provided.

Gasket

A structure of mounting an electric device in a front compartment of a vehicle is disclosed. The structure may include: a casing being divided into a first and a second casing; a first and a second through hole provided in the first casing; a first and a second fixing hole provided in the second casing; a first fastening member passing through the first through hole and fixed to the first fixing hole; and a second fastening member passing through the second through hole and fixed to the second fixing hole. The first through hole is located at a far side of the first casing with a vehicle's center line and located at a front half of the first casing. The second through hole is located at a closer side and a rear half of the first casing.

Structure of mounting electric device in front compartment of vehicle

A vehicle includes a motor housing accommodating motors for driving wheels, and a power control unit fixed on the motor housing. The power control unit includes: a stacked unit in which multiple power modules accommodating power semiconductor elements for electric power conversion and multiple coolers are stacked; and reactors. The stacked unit is disposed in the case of the power control unit such that the stacking direction of the power modules and the coolers is directed toward the vehicle-longitudinal direction. The reactors are disposed in the case so as not to overlap with the stacked unit as viewed from the stacking direction.
