An engine generator includes an engine, a generator coaxially connected to the engine, a soundproofing case, and an exhaust muffler. The soundproofing case is divided into three, that is, a chamber to be cooled, and engine-side and generator-side air intake chambers on opposite sides of the chamber to be cooled. The chamber to be cooled houses the exhaust muffler and the majority of the engine and generator. Ventilation pathways are formed between an exhaust vent, which is provided in an upper part of the soundproofing case so as to open into the chamber to be cooled, and engine-side and generator-side outside air inlets which are provided in the soundproofing case so as to open into the engine-side and generator-side air intake chambers. Air is taken into the two air intake chambers from outside the soundproofing case via the two outside air inlets flows through the chamber to be cooled, and is discharged via the exhaust vent to the outside.

An absorption refrigerator is minimized in the size and the weight. A sensible heat exchanger 14 and a cooling fan 19 for cooling the sensible heat exchanger 14 are mounted front and rear opposite to each other to form a cooling unit. At one side of the fan 19, a regenerator 3 and a rectifier 6 are aligned vertically one over the other. At the other side of the fan 19, an evaporator 1 and an absorber 2 of a rectangular configuration are provided side by side. A condenser 9 is laid above the cooling unit. The cooling unit, the evaporator 1, the absorber 2, the condenser 9, the regenerator 3, the rectifier 6, and a set of pumps P1 to P4 all are installed in a main housing 20 of substantially a rectangular parallelopiped shape having a depth reduced axially of the cooling fan 19.

A self-propelling snow removing machine includes a body frame extending rearwardly and upwardly with a steering handle attached to an upper end thereof, a snow removing mechanism operatively mounted on a front portion of the body frame, a running mechanism operatively mounted on a lower portion of the body frame, an engine mounted on the body frame and having an output shaft extending forwardly of the body frame, and a power transmitting mechansim supported on the body frame and operatively coupled to the engine, the power transmitting mechanism including a transmission for connecting the engine output shaft to the running mechanism and for connecting the engine output shaft to the snow removing mechanism. The engine has a cylinder with its axis inclined laterally of the body frame, the power transmitting mechanism is mounted on the body frame forwardly of the engine, and further includes a gear mechanism for coupling the engine output shaft to the transmission and a clutch. A self-propelled snow removing machine includes a body frame, a snow removing mechansim operatively mounted on a front portion of the body frame, a running mechanism operatively mounted on a lower portion of the body frame, an engine mounted on the body frame, and a power transmitting mechanism supported on the body frame and operatively coupled to the engine, the power transmitting mechanism including a transmission for connecting the engine to the running mechanism and for connecting the engine to the snow removing mechanism. The power transmitting mechanism has a gear mechanism for coupling the engine to the transmission and a clutch. The power transmitting mechanism includes a transmission case housing the transmission therein and a clutch housing the clutch, the snow removing mechanism including implement covers attached to a front portion of the transmission case, while the transmission case, the clutch housing, and the implement covers are successively coupled together.
