A genset module coupling assembly includes a cross-bar of a module chassis oriented orthogonal to an engine neutral axis of vibration defined by an engine mounted on an engine chassis, a first bracket coupled to the cross-bar on a first side of the engine neutral axis of vibration, and a second bracket coupled to the cross-bar on a second side of the engine neutral axis of vibration. The first bracket and the second bracket are positioned to minimize communication of vibrations from the engine chassis to the module chassis.

A genset enclosure includes a frame system, a plurality of side panels, a plurality of roof panels, a first connector, and a second connector. The frame system includes a plurality of interconnected frame members. The plurality of side panels are coupled to opposing sides of the frame system. The plurality of roof panels are coupled to a roof of the frame system and extend between the opposing sides of the frame system. The plurality of roof panels are oriented perpendicular to the plurality of side panels. The frame system, the plurality of side panels, and the plurality of roof panels together define an enclosure portion having a first open end and a second open end. The first connector and second connector are engageable with one another and are coupled to the frame system along a perimeter of the first open end and the second open end, respectively.

A standby generator includes an internal combustion engine, an alternator, and a controller. The internal combustion engine includes an engine housing, an engine block, and a crankshaft. The engine housing at least partially covers the engine block. The engine block includes a cylinder. The crankshaft is configured to rotate about a vertical crankshaft axis in response to movement by the cylinder. The alternator includes a stator, as well as a rotor that is configured to rotate with the rotation of the crankshaft to produce electrical power. The controller includes an inverter that is configured to receive electrical power from the alternator and output alternating current electrical power. The controller extends at least partially above the engine housing.

A control system for a standby generator includes a control box mounted in a standby generator enclosure with a control panel coupled to the control box that is selectively openable to provide access into the control box. One or more fasteners may be mounted to the control panel to selectively hold the control panel closed, and one or more generator control components may be mounted in the control box and operated by the control panel.

In a generator including an engine, a rotating electric machine, and a cooling fan that rotates integrally with a rotor of the rotating electric machine, the cooling fan includes a plurality of fans disposed at an interval in an axial direction of the fan, and a cylindrical body that extends in the axial direction of the cooling fan with a cylindrical cross section in an inner peripheral space of an upstream fan and is disposed more on the upstream side than a downstream fan.

A shroud includes a first shroud that covers a first side face to which a muffler is adjacent among four side faces that an engine has, a second shroud that covers a second side face adjacent to the first side face and a third side face, and a third shroud that sections a muffler space for housing the muffler with the first shroud, the first shroud and the second shroud form an upstream side air guide path that makes cooling air flow around the engine, and the muffler space is connected to a downstream side of the upstream side air guide path.

An outer casing includes an under panel disposed on a bottom surface, and the under panel integrally includes a reinforcing part that supports an engine. By the reinforcing part, strength and rigidity can be secured without using other parts, a height dimension of the reinforcing part can be suppressed to be low compared to the case of separately providing a support member as in the conventional art, and a generator can be made light in weight and miniaturized. In addition, since a structure is such that the engine is supported by one under panel, need of fastening the other parts is eliminated, there is no risk of generating a gap between the parts, and noise can be reduced.

An example fluid container configured to receive a fluid, with a filler neck configured to channel the fluid from an inlet into the fluid container. In some examples, a flexible hose connects the fluid container to the filler neck.

Ruggedized generators can operate using both medium and heavy fuels and output at least 5 kWe of power, yet are quiet, compact in size, and reliable.

A gas engine power generating system includes an electricity generating component including a gas engine, an alternating-current electricity generator, a cooling system portion, an exhaust system portion, an engine control unit, a battery, and an alternating current/direct current inverter, and a housing. A plurality of the electricity generating components are provided as electricity generating units, and are accommodated in the housing. Each electricity generating unit is configured to be capable of generating electricity independently, the plurality of electricity generating units are electrically connected together in parallel, operation, shut-down, and the amount of generated electric power for all the electricity generating units are managed by a total control unit, and direct-current power from each electricity generating unit is aggregated and converted to alternating-current power, and is supplied to the load side.
