Inventors include Sakurai, Katsuhiro; and Matsueda, Koji -.
The application for the patent was published on June 19, 2026, under issue no. 25/2026.
Abstract: The draft angle in a mount portion provided on the inner surface of a vertical wall of a cast body is smaller than the draft angle of a general portion. The outer surface of the vertical wall is formed substantially parallel to the inner surface of the vertical wall. This allows a fastening tool used to fasten a bolt to be applied at a smaller approach angle with respect to a reference line along a vehicle width direction. As a result, the possibility of interference between the fastening tool and ribs can be reduced. Specifically, the possibility of such interference can be reduced without partially cutting away the ribs. Accordingly, rigidity desired for a front portion of a vehicle can be ensured, and bolts can be fastened to a mount portion of a motor unit. [Selected Drawing] FIG. 6
