Abstract
A cylinder body (2) is so formed as to project from a crank chamber (3) in an inclined manner, and a governor gear (50) for driving a centrifugal governor is arranged above a location where a crankshaft (20) is horizontally bridged within the crank chamber (3). An upper wall (71) of the crank chamber (3) is projected upwardly for accommodating the governor gear (50) within the crank chamber (3). An idle gear (45) is arranged at a location above the crankshaft (20) and below the cylinder (46) within the crank chamber (3), and the idle gear (45) is engaged with the crankshaft gear (42) and the governor gear (50) to transmit rotation of the crankshaft gear (42) to the governor gear (50).
