Abstract
A differential apparatus including a pair of left and right outputting shafts is interposed between a left shaft and a right shaft of a vehicle, and a motor is coupled to the differential apparatus. A reverse rotating mechanism which generates rotation being reverse to a first outputting shaft being one of the outputting shafts and having a same rotational speed as the first outputting shaft is provided. A changeover mechanism for controlling a power transmission state is interposed between the left shaft coupled to the first outputting shaft and the reverse rotating mechanism. The changeover mechanism has a first state where the left shaft is coupled to the first outputting shaft, a second state where the left shaft in not coupled to the differential apparatus and the reverse rotating mechanism, and a third state where the left shaft is coupled to the reverse rotating mechanism.
