Patent number: 11548366Abstract: A vehicle drive apparatus includes: a first bearing disposed between a rotor support member and a case in a radial direction so as to restrict movement of the rotor support member to a first axial side relative to the case; and a second bearing disposed between a connecting shaft and the case in an axial direction so as to restrict movement of the connecting shaft to a second axial side relative to the case. A fluid transmission device is disposed on the first axial side relative to the connecting shaft. The rotor support member includes a tubular portion having a tubular shape extending in the axial direction and fitted to an outer peripheral surface of the connecting shaft. Movement of the connecting shaft to the first axial side relative to the tubular portion is restricted.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2020Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignees: AISIN CORPORATION, TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Shigeki Ideue, Takeru Morita, Keita Inda, Kenji Dozono, Tatsuya Okishima, Toshihiko Kamiya, Masashi Ikemura

Publication number: 20220123630Abstract: A rotary electric machine rotor includes a rotor core and a core support member that supports the rotor core. The core support member includes a tubular portion formed in a tubular shape and a support portion supported so as to be rotatable with respect to a non-rotary member to support the tubular portion from the inner side in a radial direction. The core support member is formed such that a diameter of a fitting surface portion in a specific region, which includes an overlapping region which overlaps a connection region as viewed in the radial direction, is smaller than a diameter of the fitting surface portion in a general region which is a region other than the specific region.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2020Publication date: April 21, 2022Applicants: AISIN CORPORATION, TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Takeru MORITA, Shigeki IDEUE, Yuta WATANABE, Kenji DOZONO, Masashi IKEMURA, Toshihiko KAMIYA
