  • the flange portion 10B has four bolt fastening portions 10C. Two of the bolt fastening portions 10C are arranged at the left and right ends of the flat surface portion 10A, respectively. Note that in FIG. 8, the bolt 13 for fastening the mounting flange portion 63c and the inverter flange portion 60f is not shown.
  • the inverter case 10 of the modified example has a plurality of ribs 11A extending downward from the upper end portion of the second case portion 10b and connected to the upper surface of the flange portion 10B on the flat surface portion 10A, and the lower end of the first case portion 10a. It has a plurality of ribs 11B and a plurality of ribs 11C extending upward from the portion and connected to the lower portion of the flange portion 10B, and a plurality of ribs 11D extending in a direction intersecting the plurality of ribs 11B and the plurality of ribs 11C.
  • the plurality of ribs 11A connect the upper surface of the mounting flange portion 63c to the surface of the main body accommodating portion 63a facing the vehicle rear side.
  • the plurality of ribs 11A extend in the vertical direction.
  • the inverter case 10 has seven ribs 11A. Six of the ribs 11A extend upward from a position adjacent to the bolt fastening portion 10C. According to this configuration, the rib 11A is connected to the bolt fastening portion 10C, which is a highly rigid portion of the flange portion 10B, so that the rigidity of the surface of the main body accommodating portion 63a facing the vehicle rear side is increased and vibration is effective. Can be suppressed.
  • One of the seven ribs 11A extends upward from the central portion of the mounting flange portion 63c in the vehicle width direction (left-right direction).
  • the present embodiment since there is a relatively wide flat surface portion in the left-right direction central portion on the surface of the main body accommodating portion 63a facing the vehicle rear side, one of the ribs 11A is arranged in the left-right direction central portion. Vibration can be suppressed more effectively.
  • the plurality of ribs 11B connect the inverter flange portion 60f and the surface of the first connecting plate portion 60d facing the vehicle rear side.
  • the lower ends of the plurality of ribs 11B reach the lower ends of the surface of the first connecting plate portion 60d facing the vehicle rear side.
  • the inverter case 10 has eight ribs 11B. Two ribs 11B are arranged for each bolt fastening portion 10C. That is, at each of the four bolt fastening portions 10C, the upper ends of the ribs 11B are connected to both ends of the bolt fastening portion 10C in the left-right direction.
  • the rigidity of the first connecting plate portion 60d can be increased by connecting the rib 11B to the bolt fastening portion 10C which is a highly rigid portion of the flange portion 10B. Further, since the two ribs 11B extend from one bolt fastening portion 10C, the arrangement density of the ribs 11B on the surface of the first connecting plate portion 60d becomes high. Therefore, vibration can be suppressed in a wide range of the first connection plate portion 60d.
  • the plurality of ribs 11C connect the inverter flange portion 60f and the surface of the first connecting plate portion 60d facing the vehicle rear side.
  • the inverter case 10 has three ribs 11C.
  • the rib 11C is arranged between two bolt fastening portions 10C adjacent to each other in the left-right direction.
  • the rib 11C has a width larger than that of the rib 11B. According to this configuration, the rigidity of the region located between the ribs 11B extending from the bolt fastening portion 10C can be increased.
  • the rib 11C is a rib that is not connected to the bolt fastening portion 10C, but since it is a rib having a width larger than that of the rib 11B, the rigidity of the first connecting plate portion 60d can be sufficiently increased.
  • the plurality of ribs 11D are arranged at the central portion and the lower end portion in the vertical direction of the first connecting plate portion 60d. That is, the inverter case 10 has two ribs 11D. One rib 11D intersects the vertical central portion of the rib 11B and the rib 11C. The other rib 11D intersects the lower ends of the rib 11B and the rib 11C.
