Abstract

The invention provides a power unit with the following characteristic features. The power unit includes: an engine that includes a cylinder block, a crankcase, and a balancer; a transmission casing that extends rearwards from the crankcase of the engine; a V-belt type continuously variable transmission installed in the transmission casing and transmitting the drive power from the engine to a drive wheel; and an electric motor for drive-pulley control that controls the width of the groove of a drive pulley in the V-belt type continuously variable transmission by means of a reduction gear mechanism for drive-pulley control unit. In the power unit, the engine has to be compact in size while the placement of the components of the power unit has to be well-balanced. In the provided power unit, when viewed from a side, the electric motor for drive-pulley control, the reduction gear mechanism for the drive-pulley control unit, and the center of the balancer are placed between a joint plane where the cylinder block is coupled to the crankcase and a plane which passes on the center of the crankshaft and which is parallel to the joint plane.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the arrangement of heavy objects in a power unit, and the power unit is composed of an engine and a transmission. Background technique [0002] In a conventional power unit, a drive pulley control motor, a drive pulley control portion reduction gear mechanism, and a balancer are arranged behind the crankshaft (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). In the arrangement of such heavy objects, on the one hand, the engine must be compactly formed, and on the other hand, it is necessary to consider a good arrangement of the weight balance. That is, in the usual swing mode of the device, the movement stroke of the rear of the crankshaft is larger than that of the front of the crankshaft, which has a great influence on cushioning and operational stability. For this reason, it is desirable that each weight of the constituent members of the power unit be arranged as far forward as possible of the crankshaft. [0003] Patent Document...
