Abstract:
A hybrid vehicle propulsion apparatus on a hybrid vehicle having a drive axle coupled thereto, comprising:an internal combustion engine for generating propulsive forces, said internal combustion engine having an output shaft; a motor generator for generating propulsive forces, said motor generator having a stator and a rotor directly coupled to said output shaft of the internal combustion engine; a transmission for transmitting the propulsive forces from said internal combustion engine and said motor generator to said drive axle; a shield member disposed between said internal combustion engine and said stator of said motor generator, for blocking at least one of currents and magnetic fluxes leaking from said motor generator; said shield member being mounted on said stator; and spaces being provided between said shield member and said engine, and between said shield member and said motor generator, respectively, wherein said stator comprises a circular array of coil units electrically connected to connection rings, said shield member having a ridge by which said coil units are fixed to said stator through said connection rings and functioning as an attaching member for fixing said stator to said motor generator.
