Control device for electric motor

摘要

A power module for supplying driving current to coils wound on a stator of an electric motor and a heat sink for absorbing heat generated at the power module are provided at an axial outside of a motor casing. An intermediate member is provided between the motor casing and the heat sink. The intermediate member has a bottom plate portion fixed to an axial end plate of the motor casing and a cylindrical side wall axially extending from the bottom plate portion. An outer peripheral surface of the heat sink is in contact with an inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical side wall, so that the power module fixed to the heat sink is arranged in a space, which is within a range smaller than an outer diameter of the motor casing.
