摘要

A motor/generator unit applicable to an automotive vehicle is disclosed. The motor/generator unit includes: a torque converter (102a) to perform a transmission of a driving force between an output axle of a vehicular engine and an input axle of a transmission, the transmission being enabled to switch between a neutral state and a forward-and-rearward state and being enabled to vary a gear ratio; a housing (5) enclosing a periphery of the torque converter; a hydraulic clutch; an electromagnetic clutch, both (102c) of the hydraulic clutch and electromagnetic clutch being juxtaposed to be enabled to form a lock-up state of the torque converter; and amotor/generator (102b) including a stator (1) fixed to the housing and a rotor (8) attached to a rotary element of the torque converter so as to be opposed to the stator, the motor/generator being disposed to be enabled to give and receive a torque to and from the rotary element of the torque converter.
