Engine
A marine engine includes a first turbocharger, a first intercooler, a second turbocharger, a second intercooler, an oil filter, and a top cover. The first turbocharger and the second turbocharger supply air by using an exhaust gas. The first intercooler and the second intercooler cool gases having passed through the turbochargers, respectively. The top cover is a cover arranged in an upper region of the marine engine. These devices are arranged so as not to overlap one another when seen in the thickness direction of the top cover.
SEALING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A FILTRATION SYSTEM
A filter assembly includes a filter head and a filter cartridge. The filter head includes a filter head coupling surface, a filter head outlet, a filter head inner wall, and a filter head outer wall. The filter head coupling surface defines a filter head opening. The filter head outlet is configured to provide a fluid. The filter head inner wall extends around the filter head outlet. The filter head outer wall extends around the filter head inner wall. The filter head inner wall and the filter head outer wall collectively define a filter head channel. The filter cartridge includes a filter cartridge shell and a filter element. The filter cartridge shell has a filter cartridge coupling surface that is configured to be coupled to the filter head coupling surface. The filter cartridge shell defines a filter cartridge opening.
POWER UNIT FOR VEHICLE
A power unit including an internal combustion engine has an electric power generator mounted on an end of a crankshaft, a power transmitting member mounted on the other end of the crankshaft, and a lubricant oil filter. The oil filter partly overlaps the electric power generator as viewed in the direction of a crankshaft axis, and is positioned between the electric power generator and a crank weight on the crankshaft with respect to the direction of the crankshaft axis. The oil filter has a filter mount axis forming an acute angle to the crankshaft axis. The engine crankcase is thus prevented from bulging outwardly, and the power unit is reduced in size in its entirety.

Filter Element for a Filter Device of an Internal Combustion Engine and a Filter Device for an Internal Combustion Engine
A filter element for a filter device of an internal combustion engine, in particular a motor vehicle, is disclosed. The filter element for filtering a fluid of the internal combustion engine can be inserted in the direction of an insertion axis along a lateral wall of a filter housing. The filter element has at least one sealing element for fluidically blocking at least one throughflow opening formed in the lateral wall.

Filter unit, filter system, and motor vehicle with filter system
The invention relates to a filter unit, a filter system (44b) with at least two filter units, and to a motor vehicle with a filter system (44b). A filter bowl (12d-e) of the filter unit is formed by a base and a cover. Embodied in a side wall of the base are at least two access openings to an antechamber or collection chamber (34a-b) in the filter bowl (12d-e). Embodied integrally with the cover is a collection line segment or supply segment (26d-e) that leads from a clean chamber or an unfiltered side antechamber in the filter bowl (12d-e) to at least two open ends (28l). The inventive filter system (44b) has at least two inventive filter units, and fluid may flow through their filter elements (30, 30a-d), which are switched in parallel. The invention facilitates the space-saving arrangement of filter units and filter systems (44b) in constricted and/or complexly shaped installation spaces, especially in motor vehicles.
