WIPO Patent Application WO/1998/044253

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

An engine capable of being applied to an engine including a cylinder block and an oil pan connected to each other and directed to improving sealability, assembling performance and ease of production. An oil pan (14) is supported on the side of a cylinder block (1) in a vibration-isolation arrangement through a connecting member (cylinder cover (12)), and a convex member (44) is disposed on one of the opposed portions of the cylinder block and the oil pan while a concave member (46) is disposed on the other. Seal is established when these members (44 and 46) are fitted to each other and moreover, because they are slidable, a dimensional error can be tolerated and the assembly performance can be improved. An object of the present invention can be accomplished similarly by bonding a flexible member (144) and a fitting member (142) in succession to the oil pan (114) and fixing this fitting member to the cylinder block by a fastening member (bolt (146)).
