Patent ID: 6883628

Claim:
A structure in which a plurality of electrical equipments are arranged in a motor vehicle, comprising: an engine control computer, a relay block, a junction box, a meter unit, and an ABS actuator; a brake booster which is located at one of a right half region and a left half region of the vehicle; and a vehicle body with a longitudinal centerline that defines a space including a generally centralized region as viewed in a direction of the width of the vehicle, said region extending symmetrically from both sides of the centerline for a distance which is no more than one-half the distance, measured in a direction normal to the centerline, between the centerline and a longitudinal axis of the brake booster disposed within the vehicle body; wherein the engine control computer, relay block, junction box, and ABS actuator are concentrated in said generally central region of the space defined by the vehicle body, and the locations of the engine control computer, the relay block, the junction box and the ABS actuator are the same when the vehicle is a right-hand drive vehicle as when the vehicle is a left-hand drive vehicle; wherein said vehicle body includes a partition wall that separates an engine room and a cabin from each other, the engine control computer, the relay block and the ABS actuator are located on an engine-room side of the partition wall, the meter unit and the junction box are located in a generally central region of the cabin as viewed in a vehicle width direction, the vehicle body includes a dash cross member that substantially extends in the vehicle width direction, the ABS actuator is located on a generally central portion of the dash cross member as viewed in the vehicle width direction, each of the engine control computer, the relay block, the junction box, the meter unit and the ABS actuator are connected via one of a plurality of harnesses, some of the harnesses pass through holes formed in a generally central portion of the partition wall, the engine control computer, the relay block, the junction box, and the meter unit are located at a substantially same height in a vehicle height direction, and the engine control computer, the relay block, the junction box, and the meter unit are sequentially aligned substantially along the longitudinal centerline.
