A vehicle electric motor including: a tubular-shaped stator core constituted by electromagnetic steel sheets that are laminated on each other; a rotor disposed inside the stator core so as to be rotated about an axis; and a housing storing therein the tubular-shaped stator core and the rotor, and including a circumferential wall and axially opposite end walls that are opposed to each other in a direction parallel with the axis. The stator core is fixed at one of its axially end portions to one of the axially opposite end walls of the housing. The housing includes a stator-core-inclination restraining portion that protrudes from an inner circumferential surface of the circumferential wall of the housing toward a part of an outer circumferential surface of the stator core, wherein the part is located on a side of the other of the axially end portions of the stator core.

Vehicle electric motor

An electric pump includes a pump unit, a motor and a controller. The pump unit is configured to pump fluid by a rotating operation. The motor is a brushless direct-current motor and configured to rotationally drive the pump unit. The controller is configured to control a current to be supplied to the motor. The controller is configured to switch between voltage control for controlling the current to be supplied to the motor based on a target voltage and current control for controlling the current to be supplied to the motor based on a target current.

Electric pump

A vehicle electric motor including: a tubular-shaped stator core constituted by laminated steel sheets; a casing including an outer circumferential wall and a bottom wall, and storing therein an axial end portion of the stator core; a casing cover including an outer circumferential wall and a bottom wall, and storing therein another axial end portion of the stator core, and a rotor disposed inside the stator core. The stator core includes fastened portions protruding radially outwardly from respective portions of an outer circumferential surface of the stator core which are circumferentially spaced apart from each other. The stator core is fastened at the fastened portions to the bottom wall of one of the casing and the casing cover. The other of the casing and the casing cover includes protrusion portions protruding from its inner wall surface toward the stator core so as to restrain inclination of the stator core.

Provided is an electric vehicle includes a power control unit, a driving motor, a first cooling channel fitted with a first pump that causes a first cooling liquid cooled in a first heat exchanger to flow through the power control unit and a second heat exchanger in this order and return to the first heat exchanger, and a second cooling channel fitted with a second pump that causes a second cooling liquid cooled by the first cooling liquid in the second heat exchanger to flow through the driving motor and return to the second heat exchanger. The second pump starts or stops circulation of the second cooling liquid, or increases or reduces a circulation volume of the second cooling liquid, based on one or both of the temperature of the power control unit and the temperature of the first cooling liquid.

Electric vehicle

An electric motor storing device for a hybrid vehicle, the hybrid vehicle including an electric motor, the electric motor including a rotor shaft and an inner circumferential side rotational shaft disposed on an inner circumferential side of the rotor shaft in a manner to penetrate said rotor shaft, and a case configured to store the electric motor, the electric motor storing device includes: a support member for rotatably supporting the inner circumferential side rotational shaft and the rotor shaft; and an insulating section for insulating between the support member and the case.
