ABSTRACT:
A regenerative braking system in a motor vehicle determines a state of deceleration on the basis of the number of revolutions of a motor and an accelerator signal and performs a regenerative braking according to the state of deceleration. The regenerative braking system includes a revolution sensor for detecting;the number of revolutions of a rotor of a vehicle driving motor and an accelerator opening sensor in a RAM stores discrimination data for discriminating between a regenerative braking mode and a drive mode on the basis of the number of revolutions of the rotor and the accelerator opening and also stores on-off duty ratio data of FETs in the regenerative braking mode and that in the drive mode. A CPU retrieves on-off duty ratio data corresponding to the number of revolutions of the rotor and the accelerator opening in the regenerative braking mode when the regenerative braking mode is determined on the basis of the rotor revolutions and the accelerator opening, and controls the FETs at an on-off duty ratio corresponding to the retrieved on-off duty ratio data. The power unit for the motor vehicle is an electric motor mounted in unit cases using at least a portion of the unit cases as a motor case. In the power unit of such construction, a heat sink is attached to the motor case. Switching elements are provided for controlling an electric current to be supplied to the electric motor. The switching elements are mounted to the heat sink.
