Abstract
In a generator assembly, outside air, taken from a suction hole into a fixed soundproof housing, is sucked into a portable engine generator covered by a soundproof case to operate an engine and cool the interior of the fixed soundproof housing. The exhaust gas of the engine and the cooling air of the soundproof case are exhausted outside through the exhaust air hole of the soundproof case and the external exhaust hole of the fixed soundproof housing without leaking into the fixed soundproof housing. Therefore, the portable engine generator can be operated while it remains housed within the fixed soundproof housing. The exhaust air duct of the portable engine generator and the communicating duct of the fixed soundproof housing are communicated in a state of close contact, at the time that the portable engine generator has been positioned by a positioning member provided in the fixed soundproof housing. The portable engine generator can be put into or out from the fixed soundproof housing and is guided and housed by wheel guide rails provided within the fixed soundproof housing.
