Publication number: 20250239907Abstract: A motor unit includes a channel. The channel includes: a supply channel through which a cooling medium is supplied; a discharge channel through which the cooling medium is discharged; a first cooling medium system provided in a first range from the supply channel toward one side in a circumferential direction to the discharge channel; and a second cooling medium system provided in a second range from the supply channel toward the other side in the circumferential direction to the discharge channel. The first cooling medium system includes a first cooling medium channel that connects the supply channel and the discharge channel, and a second cooling medium channel that is independent of the first cooling medium channel and that connects the supply channel and the discharge channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2024Publication date: July 24, 2025Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yoshihiro TAKAHARA, Takashi IMAKAWA, Takanori ASAI, Hideya AWATA, Daichi OURA, Hiroyasu HARADA, Yasuhiro MAKIDO

Publication number: 20250226721Abstract: A motor unit includes a motor, a housing, and a coolant channel that is configured such that a coolant flows through. The coolant channel includes an inlet passage for receiving the coolant from outside, a branching passage into which the coolant flows from the inlet passage, a first channel into which the coolant flows from the branching passage, and a second channel which a path length is shorter than that of the first channel. An inlet port, a first outlet port, and a second outlet port, are defined on an inner face of the branching passage, and a distance between a center of the inlet port and a center of the first outlet port is smaller than a distance between the center of the inlet port and a center of the second outlet port.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2024Publication date: July 10, 2025Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Takanori ASAI, Takashi IMAKAWA, Hideya AWATA, Yoshihiro TAKAHARA, Yasuhiro MAKIDO, Daichi OURA, Hiroyasu HARADA
