Abstract
A lubricating system of a vehicle transmission device includes a third oil storage part that is provided above a first oil storage part and a second oil storage part in a vehicle height direction. The third oil storage part stores lubricating oil, and includes a first outlet that allows the lubricating oil to flow out by gravity toward the first oil storage part without passing through the second oil storage part. As the lubricating oil is thus returned from the first outlet to the first oil storage part without passing through the second oil storage part, the oil level in the first oil storage part can be stably maintained with the lubricating oil supplied thereto regardless of the oil level in the second oil storage part.
