Abstract
A driving force distribution apparatus includes a driving force connecting/disconnecting mechanism between a pinion gear shaft and an intermediate rotational member, a first driving force adjustment mechanism between the intermediate rotational member and a second output rotational member, a second driving force adjustment mechanism between the intermediate rotational member and a first output rotational member, and a hydraulic unit configured to generate pressures of hydraulic oil for operating the driving force connecting/disconnecting mechanism and the first and second driving force adjustment mechanisms. The hydraulic unit includes a single hydraulic pump and a hydraulic circuit configured to distribute a pressure of the hydraulic oil, which is discharged from the hydraulic pump, to cylinder chambers of pistons.
