Abstract: A vehicular drive system includes an engine having a first oil, a transmission having a second oil, and a heat exchanger 4 that exchanges heat between the first oil and the second oil. The magnitude of the amount of reduction of loss torque in the transmission per unit amount of reduction of the kinetic viscosity of the second oil is larger than the magnitude of the amount of increase of loss torque in the engine per unit amount increase of the kinetic viscosity of the first oil.

Abstract: This rotor for a rotating electric motor includes a hollow cylindrical rotor core with a plurality of laminated electromagnetic steel plates. The inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the rotor core each face a magnetic gap. The rotor core is interposed between a first rotating support member and a second rotating support member. A flange is formed on a first end of a tubular pin protruding from a first hole of the first rotating support member. A tubular expansion part of the tubular pin plastically deforms due to fluid pressure so as to come into close contact with a through hole of the rotor core, the first hole of the first rotating support member, and a second hole of the second rotating support member.

Abstract: When a drive shaft (37) is driven while the operation of an engine (36) is stopped, the rotation of an input-side rotor (28) is restricted by the engagement of a brake. Further, on the basis of the temperature Temp_SR of a brush (96) acquired by a temperature sensor (97), the distribution of torque Tcoup acting between the input-side rotor (28) and the first output-side rotor (18) and torque Tmg acting between the stator (16) and the second output-side rotor (19) is controlled. Consequently, drive performance when the drive shaft (37) is driven while the operation of the engine (36) is stopped is improved while local overheating of a slip ring (95) is prevented.
