A motor device includes a motor case, an inverter case, a motor, an inverter, and a terminal block. The inverter case is attached to the motor case. The motor is disposed in the motor case. The inverter is disposed in the inverter case. The terminal block is disposed in the inverter case and has a terminal block channel. The terminal block is coupled to an energizing member that extends from the motor. The terminal block channel is configured to guide a coolant.

Motor device

A supercharging system to be mounted in a vehicle including an engine, a driving operator, and an electric power storage unit includes an exhaust turbine, an intake compressor, an electric power converter, and a controller. The exhaust turbine generates electric power. The intake compressor feeds compressed intake air to the engine. The electric power converter supplies electric power from the electric power storage unit and recovers electric power to the electric power storage unit via an electric power path between the exhaust turbine and the intake compressor. The controller acquires a target value of compression power of the intake compressor, based on an operation of the driving operator and an operating state of the engine, and controls the electric power converter such that electric power corresponding to a difference between the acquired target value and the generated electric power is supplied from or recovered to the electric power storage unit.
