DRIVE SYSTEM LUBRICATION CONSTRUCTION

摘要

A drive system lubrication construction includes: an electric motor; a change-speed mechanism that is connected to the electric motor and which lies adj acent to the electric motor in an axial direction; and a lubrication supply member which supplies lubrication oil to the electric motor and the change-speed mechanism; wherein: the electric motor is disposed on one axial side of the lubrication supply member; the change-speed mechanism is disposed on the other axial side of the lubrication supply member; the lubrication supply member is formed to be substantially U-shaped along with the electric motor; a first flow path and a second flow path that are connected to each other and through which lubrication oil flows are formed in the lubrication supply member; at least one first lubrication hole that communicates with the first flow path and which supplies the lubrication oil in the first flow path to the change-speed mechanism which is disposed on the other axial side of the lubrication supply member is provided in the other axial side surface of the lubrication supply member; and at least one second lubrication hole that communicates with the second flow path and which supplies the lubrication oil in the second flow path to the electric motor which is disposed on the one axial side of the lubrication supply member is provided in one axial side surface of the lubrication supply member.
