Abstract: The present invention provides a vehicle driving apparatus capable of being mounted easily even in a narrow space such as under-floor of the vehicle. The vehicle driving apparatus comprises a first and a second generators driven by an engine for driving front wheels, and a motor driven by receiving a power supply from the second generator to drive rear wheels, the first and second generators being installed in the vicinity of an engine within an engine room, the motor being arranged in the vicinity of a differential gear with which a reduction mechanism is integrated and is positioned substantially in a central part of the rear wheels.

Abstract: An electric generating system for automobiles comprising a primary generator which is driven by an internal combustion engine of an automobile and supplies power to an electric load of the automobile and an electric motor for driving wheels of said automobile which are not driven by said internal combustion engine, further comprising a secondary generator which is driven by said internal combustion engine and drives said motor and a control unit which controls said secondary generator and said electric motor; wherein said control circuit controls the output of said generator according to a driving force requested by said automobile and the driving force of said electric motor is controlled by the output of said secondary generator.

Abstract: To provide a vehicle driving apparatus capable of providing a sufficient driving force. A driving high-power generator is driven by an engine. A DC motor is driven directly by energy from the generator. A driving generator output voltage control circuit controls output voltage of the generator in accordance with the demanded driving force from the vehicle to control the motor.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an electric motor for an electric vehicle with an improved cooling capacity by causing coils wound around a stator to serve as a tubular heat pipe type heat transfer device. An electric motor for an electric vehicle includes a stator 11, coils 12 wound around at least the stator, and a rotor 13 being rotated by an induction field developed around the coils 12. In one embodiment of the invention the coils 12 are formed of a tubular container 121 which is filled with a working fluid which vibrates in an axial direction of a tube by nuclear boiling generated at a high temperature portion of the coils 12. The coils themselves are arranged as a non-looped tubular heat pipe type heat transfer device.
