Patent ID: 10998796

Abstract:
A structure for cooling a rotating electrical machine includes: an oil pump, a supply oil passage connected to a discharge port of the oil pump, and a first oil passage that is an oil passage located above a stator of the rotating electrical machine in a vertical direction and that has a supplied portion, a discharge hole, and a discharge portion. The supplied portion is connected to the supply oil passage. The discharge hole is formed on a first side in an axial direction, which is one side in the axial direction of the rotating electrical machine with respect to the supplied portion and is configured to discharge oil toward the stator. The discharge portion is formed on the first side with respect to the discharge hole. A second oil passage is formed inside a rotor shaft to which a rotor of the rotating electrical machine is fixed, and a third oil passage connects the discharge portion of the first oil passage and the second oil passage. The third oil passage is formed along a first wall of the case which is located on the first side with respect to the rotating electrical machine.
