Patent ID: 7500512

Claim:
A high tension electrical equipment cooling device for a vehicle which cools a battery providing electricity to a driving motor via an inverter, and the inverter using cooling air, comprising: an equipment box having a cooling air intake port and a cooling air exhaust port, which houses the battery and the inverter therein; a fan adapted to introduce the cooling air through the cooling air intake port; a heat sink case provided behind a rear seat of the vehicle and in the equipment box; a heat sink provided in the heat sink case and adapted to cool the inverter; and a cooling air path provided behind the rear seat and in the equipment box, and adapted to introduce cooling air after cooling the battery to the heat sink case, wherein the high tension electrical equipment cooling device is adapted so that the cooling air which enters through the cooling air intake port passes through the battery, passes through the heat sink case via the cooling air path, and is exhausted from the cooling air exhaust port.
