Abstract

A cooling structure for an electric motor includes: a motor case that houses a stator and a rotor therein, a groove opened on an end surface in an axis direction of the rotor being formed in the motor case; a motor control circuit attached to the motor case; and a terminal base that closes the groove to constitute the groove as a cooling water passage through which cooling water can flow, the terminal base connecting a power line of the motor to a power line of the motor control circuit.
