<p>A drive force transmitting apparatus comprises a dry clutch, a hydraulic cylinder, a piston arm, an elastic partitioning member, a first seal member and a leakage lubricating fluid recovery path. The elastic partitioning member prevents lubricating fluid that has leaked from a sliding portion of a piston of the hydraulic cylinder from flowing into the dry clutch. The first seal member is disposed between opposing surfaces of a cylinder housing and a clutch cover at a position downstream from the elastic partitioning member in a leakage flow direction of lubricating fluid that has leaked. The leakage lubricating fluid recovery path is at least partially formed by a gap between the cylinder housing and the clutch cover, such that lubricating fluid leaking past the piston is conveyed to an inside of the transmission while maintaining a sealed state established by the elastic partitioning member and the first seal member.</p> |
