Abstract
Provided is a drive apparatus of a hybrid vehicle, configured in such a manner that the occurrence of a resonance phenomenon is minimized and that the efficiency of utilization of the space occupied by a torque limiter mechanism is improved. A drive apparatus for a hybrid vehicle is configured in such a manner that a torque limiter is provided in the path of power transmission between an inner shaft and a generator at a position between the generator and a motor. The torque limiter axially overlaps with at least a part of the stator of the generator and/or at least a part of the stator of the motor.
