Motor-generators are incorporated in front wheels and drive the front wheels, respectively. An ECU determines whether or not a steering apparatus including a steering actuator, a tie rod and a steering angle sensor has failed, based on an operation angle of a steering wheel from a steering wheel angle sensor and a steering angle of the front wheels from the steering angle sensor. When the ECU determines that the steering apparatus has failed, the ECU provides torque difference for a torque instruction for the motor-generators in accordance with the operation angle of the steering wheel.

A stator that includes stator windings wound around teeth. A rotor includes: a rotor core; rotor windings wound around main salient poles of the rotor; and a diode serving as a magnetic characteristic adjustment portion that causes magnetic characteristics produced on the main salient poles by electromotive forces induced in the rotor windings to differ in the circumferential direction of the rotor. The rotor has auxiliary salient poles that are each protruded from a side surface of each main salient pole in the circumferential direction. In each of rotor slots formed between the main salient poles adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, the auxiliary salient poles adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction are connected to each other within the rotor slot. In each rotor slot, at least a portion of the rotor windings is disposed radially inside the auxiliary salient poles.

An electric motor has a field pole formed by a field current passing through a field winding. A voltage booting converter converts output voltage of a battery and outputs the voltage between a power source line and a grounding line. Field winding is electrically connected onto an electric current channel between battery and power source line and formed so that voltage switched by a switching element is applied to both ends. A controller controls the field current so as to adjust density of magnetic flux between a rotor and a stator by performing switching control on switching element and a switching element connected in parallel to field winding and converts the output voltage of battery into voltage in accordance with a voltage command value.

An electrically driven wheel includes a wheel disc and a wheel hub; an in-wheel motor mounted within the wheel disc to drive the wheel disc and the wheel hub or to be driven by the wheel disc and the wheel hub; a brake rotor and a brake caliper suppressing rotation of the wheel disc and the wheel hub while a vehicle is moving; and a parking lock mechanism provided in the in-wheel motor separately from a brake mechanism formed of the brake rotor and the brake caliper. The parking lock mechanism is a band-type brake frictionally engaging a planetary carrier serving as an “output portion” of a “reduction mechanism”.

A battery is arranged outside a compartment. A service plug is arranged in the compartment. The service plug is a shutoff device that can shut off an output path of the battery by a manual operation. When a vehicle is hard hit at the front and a circuit of PCU is damaged, an excessive current may flow to the PCU, possibly generating heat or smoke from the PCU. When the vehicle goes wrong, a person on board the vehicle may pull out the service plug, whereby the power supply path from battery to PCU can be shut off.

A drive device of a hybrid vehicle includes a motor generator and a motor generator arranged at the back of the motor generator, each rotor having a rotational center axis arranged on the same axis, a power split mechanism arranged on the same axis as a rotational center axis of a crankshaft and between the crankshaft and the motor generator, and a power control unit performing control of the motor generator. The power control unit includes a reactor arranged in a gap portion formed on one side with respect to the rotational center axis of the motor generator and between a lower side surface of the power element substrate, an outer circumferential side surface of the motor generator and an inner side surface of a case, and a capacitor arranged on the other side with respect to the rotational center axis of the motor generator.

A vehicle drive device includes a motor generator (MG2), a power control unit controlling the motor generator (MG2), and a case housing the motor generator (MG2) and the power control unit. The power control unit includes a first inverter driving the motor generator (MG2) and a voltage converter boosting a power supply voltage to apply the voltage to the first inverter. A reactor L1 which is a component of the voltage converter is disposed such that at least a portion of a core comes into contact with the case for heat exchange. Consequently, the heat is dissipated to the case having a large heat capacity for integral housing, to thereby allow the heat dissipation performance of the reactor (L1) arranged in the limited space to be ensured.

An electric motor (10) has a field pole formed by a field current passing through a field winding (50). A voltage booting converter (120) converts output voltage of a battery (B) and outputs the voltage between a power source line (107) and a grounding line (105). Field winding (50) is electrically connected onto an electric current channel between battery (B) and power source line (107) and formed so that voltage switched by a switching element (Q1) is applied to both ends. A controller (100) controls the field current so as to adjust density of magnetic flux between a rotor and a stator by performing switching control on switching element (Q1) and a switching element (Q3) connected in parallel to field winding (50) and converts the output voltage of battery (B) into voltage in accordance with a voltage command value.

Right front wheel units (FL, FR) are driven independently by motor generators (MGL, MGR). A power control unit (1) is provided common to the motor generators (MGL, MGR) and integrally controls driving them. Each motor generator (MGL, MGR) and the power control unit (1) are selectively connected by switch circuits (SWL, SWR). The switch circuits (SWL, SWR) are switched by an ECU (3), as appropriate, in accordance with how the vehicle (100) is currently traveling (i.e., a driving force that the vehicle is required to output, and a direction in which the vehicle is traveling). In other words, the vehicle (100) can selectively implement traveling with the left and right front wheel units (FL, FR) both serving as driving wheel units, and traveling with only one of the left and right front wheel units (FL, FR) serving as a driving wheel unit, depending on how the vehicle is currently traveling.
