  • Publication number: 20210006123
    Abstract: An electric rotary machine case, which has a cylindrical shape and accommodates an electric rotary machine, includes a passage extending along a rotation axis direction of the electric rotary machine on an outer periphery of the electric rotary machine, and a protrusion portion protruding radially outward from an outer peripheral surface of the electric rotary machine case, the protrusion portion having the passage formed inside the protrusion portion. The protrusion portion has a flat surface in a cross-section orthogonal to a rotation axis of the electric rotary machine.
