Abstract
There is provided an internal combustion engine in which oil can be kept in an oil passageway when oil is supplied, so that the time required to supply oil can be reduced. In an internal combustion engine in which an oil supply inlet for replenishing, with oil, an oil pan reservoir chamber disposed in a lower portion of a crankcase extends obliquely downwardly from an oil supply port at an upper end thereof, the oil pan reservoir chamber has an oil pan inlet port disposed in a position offset from a vertical plane, including the oblique oil supply inlet, and a horizontal oil supply passageway bent and extending substantially horizontally from a lower end of the oil supply inlet is connected to the oil pan inlet port.
