ROTARY ELECTRIC MACHINE UNIT

Abstract:

A rotary electric machine unit includes a rotary electric machine, where a protruding portion extending in an axial direction from a one end side cover portion toward the rotary electric machine is formed at a position below a rotation axis of the rotary electric machine and overlapping with the rotary electric machine. A refrigerant flow lower surface formed on a tip end side of the protruding portion and extending in the axial direction, and a recessed surface adjacent to a base side end portion of the refrigerant flow lower surface and extending in the axial direction at a position recessed upward than the refrigerant flow lower surface are formed below a center of the protruding portion in the upper-lower direction. The refrigerant flow lower surface of the protruding portion is arranged such that an axial central portion overlaps the rotary electric machine in the axial direction.
