Abstract: When a first drive shaft and a second drive shaft rotate at equal rotational speeds, a first rotor and a second rotor rotate at equal rotational speeds. On the other hand, a rotational difference is generated between the first drive shaft and the second shaft by generating a torque between the first rotor and the second rotor and consequently, a rotational difference between the first rotor and the second rotor, so that a torque distribution between the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft is adjusted according to the torque generated between the first rotor and the second rotor. With this process, the torque distribution between the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft is adjusted without complicating the structure, and a loss when the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft rotate at equal rotational speeds is reduced.
