ELECTRIC VEHICLE DRIVE SYSTEM

摘要

An electric vehicle drive system in which an electric motor is accommodated within a motor chamber that is formed so as to be separated from a gear chamber by a partition within a case, and a transmission device that transmits power from the electric motor to an axle is accommodated within the gear chamber includes a rotation member that is disposed apart from the partition with a predetermined clearance within the gear chamber, and connected to an output shaft of the electric motor. The partition has a first communication hole that is formed at a position radially inward of a most outward point of the rotation member in a radial direction, and that provides communication between the gear chamber and the motor chamber.
