As shown in Fig. 1, in order to promptly supply the oil to the second pump 2, it is preferable that the second oil reservoir 4 provided separately from the first oil reservoir 3 is arranged in the vicinity of the second pump 2. However, the first oil reservoir 3 and the second oil reservoir 4 may be provided unitarily.

  • the cooling system portion 11 exposed to thermally severe environment is cooled (corresponding to D in Table 1). Because the viscosity of oil is low, in this case, the ECU 21 supplies oil to the cooling system portion 11 by the second pump 2 which can control operation of the oil supply device and discharged oil volume, and sets the fourth valve 15 at a predetermined opening degree.
