A standing-up assist device including: a base portion; a shaft portion, having one end connected to the base portion, capable of moving at least up and down; a support portion provided at another end of the shaft portion; a control unit for controlling movement of the shaft portion; and a user information input unit to which information of a user is input, wherein, when a speed at which the support portion moves when the user is standing up is defined as a first moving speed, the control unit changes the first moving speed according to at least any of physical information and health information of the user, which have been input from the user information input unit.

Standing-up assist device

A customer service system for providing customer service using a robot for customer service is provided. A first acquisition unit acquires first information regarding a topic provided by a person in charge of response in a negotiation between a visitor and the person in charge of response. A second acquisition unit acquires a detection result regarding speech and behavior of the visitor by the robot. An estimation unit estimates a reaction of the visitor on a basis of the detection result acquired by the second acquisition unit. An output unit outputs second information regarding the reaction estimated by the estimation unit.

Customer service system, server, control method, and storage medium

A vehicle including a first member rotatably supporting a rear wheel, a second member disposed in front of the first member, and a coupling member disposed between the first member and the second member and fixed to the first member and the second member to support the first member and the second member swingably in a left-right direction about an axial line in a front-rear direction. The coupling member is provided so that a position of the post-swing ground contact point is closer to the axial line than a position of the post-swing ground contact point in the left-right direction before the first member swings, the ground contact point being a center in an area on a surface of the rear wheel in contact with a road surface, the post-swing ground contact point being the ground contact point after the first member swings about the axial line.

Vehicle

Provided is a swing arm device for an electric two- or three-wheeled vehicle that can be reduced in the number of components for a reduction in weight while being mounted compact in an electric vehicle for which a swing arm of an electric vehicle includes a battery and a charger. The swing arm device for an electric two- or three-wheeled vehicle to be fitted on an electric vehicle includes a swing arm () one end of which is coupled to a swing shaft and the other end of which supports a rear wheel (WR), an electric motor (M) placed at the other end side of the swing arm () and for driving the rear wheel (WR), and a battery () for supplying electric power to the electric motor (M), and a charger () for charging the battery () is incorporated in the swing arm ().

Swing arm device for electric two- or three-wheeled vehicle

A battery module mounting structure includes a housing structure housing a battery supplying electric power to the electric motor of a motor-driven two-wheeled vehicle and a PDU controlling the electric motor. The housing case is configured to be mountable to and dismountable from the swing arm with the electric motor and a control substrate housed in the housing case. The swing arm is formed as a cantilever type in which an arm portion disposed on the vehicle-widthwise right or left of a rear wheel supports the rear wheel. The battery shaped in a rectangular parallelepiped is housed in the housing case with a longitudinal direction thereof facing in a vehicle-width direction. The housing case is mounted from a vehicle-widthwise inside on a lateral surface of a swing arm housing at a position vehicle-body-forward of the rear wheel and vehicle-body-rearward of a through-hole, the swing arm housing supporting the arm portion.

A saddle riding type, electric vehicle includes a swing arm removably and vertically swingably supported on a vehicle body frame, and an electric motor, a battery for supplying the electric motor with electric power, and a control unit for controlling the electric motor. The electric motor, the battery, and the control unit are disposed on the swing arm. The swing arm integrally provides, forwardly of a rear wheel, a bulkhead for accommodating a battery in isolation from an electric motor and a control unit. The bulkhead has an opening portion that faces terminals disposed on the battery. A battery accommodating portion integrally provides a partition wall extending in a vehicle width direction to form a plurality of accommodating chambers with each containing one of a plurality of batteries. A stand disposed downwardly of the partition wall is supported rotatably on a bottom wall of the battery accommodating portion.

Saddle riding type, electric vehicle

A battery is disposed close to a through-hole of a swing shaft that pivotally supports a swing arm on a vehicle body frame so as to be freely swingable at a position closer to the front of the vehicle body in the swing arm. An electric motor is disposed close to an axle of a rear wheel at a position closer to the rear of the vehicle body in the swing arm. The control board is disposed at a position outside of the battery in the vehicle width direction, and the heating element board is disposed at a position rearward of the vehicle body with respect to the control board and forward of the vehicle body with respect to the motor.

Control device of electric motorcycle

Inside of a swing arm () that pivotally supports a rear wheel (WR) of an electric two-wheeled vehicle () and that is freely swingably attached to a vehicle body, a battery (), an electric motor (M) for driving the rear wheel (WR), and a board () serving as a control device for controlling the electric motor (M) are equipped. Coupling a throttle grip () and a throttle position sensor () by physical transmission means () therebetween allows a configuration so that a turning angle of the throttle grip () can be detected, and the throttle position sensor () is attached to the board (). The board () is disposed with a planar portion oriented in a vehicle width direction.

Throttle position detector for two-wheeled electric vehicle

A battery configured as a plurality of battery cells for an electric vehicle with one board for supplying electric power to an electric motor. Each battery cell is provided with positive and negative electrodes on the side of the board. The board is provided with a plurality of cell connecting parts for transmitting cell information of each battery cell corresponding to each electrode. Sensor wiring connects each electrode and each cell connecting part. Wiring is formed are arranged over the board that radiates heat via an insulating adhesive. A heating element is mounted on a first heat-conduction member formed on a top face of the uppermost wiring board. A second heat-conduction member is formed on the downside of the lowermost wiring board. The first heat-conduction member and the second heat-conduction member are touched via a third heat-conduction member arranged in a through hole bored through each wiring board.

Battery for electric vehicle

A generator has a rotor boss engaged with a crankshaft with a rotor core engaged with the outer circumference of the rotor boss. A stator core is provided around the outer circumference of the rotor core with a bus ring opposed to one end surface of the rotor core. The outer circumference of the bus ring is engaged with a plurality of insulating components surrounding the teeth.
