An electromagnetic clutch is provided which produces sufficiently large clutch force by increasing the clutch capacity without increasing the number of inner and outer clutch plates. The electromagnetic clutch includes an intermediate member (8) that is connected to inner clutch plates (7a) so as not to be rotatable relative thereto and moves toward a clutch mechanism (7) under rotational force of a rotational member (5). The intermediate member (8) has: a pressing portion (23a) for pressing an armature (21) in the direction to frictionally couple the inner and outer clutch plates (7a, 7b) as the intermediate member (8) moves toward the clutch mechanism (7); and a movement force conversion section (24) for converting rotational force of a rotational member (6) into movement force toward the clutch mechanism (7). The movement force conversion section (24) is arranged between the intermediate member (8) and the rotational member (5).

In a vehicle differential unit according to an embodiment of the invention, a planetary carrier that is a rotatable member that rotatably supports planetary gears is formed of cylindrical members that are unable to rotate relative to each other on the rotational axis of a pair of output shafts. The vehicle differential unit has a thrust force generation portion that receives a driving force from a drive source of a vehicle and generates a thrust force along the direction of the rotational axis of the pair of output shafts, and a relative movement limiting portion that limits a relative movement between the cylindrical members along the axial direction due to the thrust force when the vehicle is in the drive mode.

A differential gear mechanism includes a housing, first and second sun gears each including an external gear portion, and first and second planetary gears. The first and second sun gears include axial end surfaces pressed against contact surfaces provided at the housing by the first and second sun gears by means of thrust forces generated at engagement surfaces between the external gear portions and the planetary gears.

A direction of the thrust force generated at the first portion by the thrust force generating mechanism is specified to be equal to a direction of the thrust force generated at the first portion by means of the engagement between the external gear portion and the planetary gear.
