Abstract: A hydraulic unit is switched among a first region A where a flow rate is adjusted by controlling a rotational speed of an electric motor while maintaining a displacement of a variable displacement pump at a maximum value, a second region B where the flow rate is adjusted by changing the displacement of the variable displacement pump while maintaining the rotational speed of the electric motor at a minimum value lower than the rotational speed in the first region A, and a third region C where, in a range where a discharge pressure of the variable displacement pump is larger than that in the first region A, the flow rate is adjusted by changing the rotational speed of the electric motor in a range larger than the minimum rotational speed, while maintaining the displacement of the variable displacement pump at an allowable maximum value that is derived from the discharge pressure and a maximum shaft torque of the electric motor.
