ENGINE UNIT SUPPORT STRUCTURE AND ENGINE UNIT MOUNTING METHOD

To provide an engine unit support structure with excellent vibration damping performance and durability, the engine unit support structure (1) is provided with an engine unit (2) having an engine (22), a mounting base (3) for mounting the engine unit (2) thereon, and a plurality of elastic support bodies coupled to the engine unit (2) and the mounting base (3) to thereby support the engine unit (2), in which the plurality of elastic support bodies include a first elastic support body (4A) disposed under the lower surface (20) of the engine unit (2) in a position closest, than any other of the plurality of the elastic support bodies, to the rotation center of the output shaft of the engine (22) and three or more of second elastic support bodies (4B, 4B, . . . ), and the first elastic support body (4A) is disposed within a closed space X in plan view formed by interconnecting the centers of the neighboring second elastic support bodies (4B, 4B, . . . ).

Off-road vehicle engine mounting

The present disclosure relates to an off-road vehicle having different features such as an engine assembly, a frame having a frame structure, and a rear mount assembly facilitating easy installation of the engine assembly, and a method of installing the engine assembly. Embodiments of the present disclosure also describe a removable frame member facilitating the installation of the engine assembly from a seating area into a rearward portion of the vehicle. The removable frame member is positioned at least partially forward of the installed engine assembly and in a lateral direction of the vehicle. The frame structure and the rear mount assembly provide more efficient assembly of the engine and transmission assembly into a tight space envelope.

Vehicle drive apparatus

A vehicle drive apparatus includes: a case accommodating a rotating electric machine; a mount supporting the case to a vehicle body; and a power control unit controlling the rotary electric machine. Further, the mount includes a bracket which is fixed to the vehicle body, a mount member which is fixed to the case, and an elastic member provided between the bracket and the mount member, the power control unit is fixed to the mount member, the mount member has a horizontal surface on a top thereof as a mounting surface on which the power control unit is attached, and the power control unit and the case are integrated via the mount member.

Unit mounting in a vehicle

A unit mounting in a vehicle, in which a drive unit is attached via a unit bearing to a body-side bearing bracket, which unit bearing is a rubber-metal bearing having a sleeve-shaped bearing core, which is screwed together with the body-side bearing bracket by a bearing bolt guided through the sleeve-shaped bearing core. The drive unit has a unit housing, in which a bearing receptacle is formed for the unit bearing. The housing-side bearing receptacle is formed as a bearing cup open on one side having a hollow cylindrical receptacle space, specifically in particular having a closed bearing base, from which a cylindrical circumferential peripheral wall is raised.
