Abstract
A driving force distribution apparatus for a four-wheel drive vehicle includes a hydraulic clutch, a spool, and a working-oil filling member. The spool is in an electromagnetic solenoid valve disposed in a hydraulic supply mechanism. The spool is slidably held in a sleeve and has one end biased by a plunger and the other end biased by a spring disposed in a damper chamber. A working oil is filled into the damper chamber through the working-oil filling member. The working-oil filling member is provided in the sleeve of the electromagnetic solenoid valve at an upper position in a direction of gravitational force above an oil surface of the working oil stored in the hydraulic supply mechanism.
