Abstract

A cover hood is secured at the cylinder head by means of detachable retaining elements whereby a sealing member is provided between sections of the cylinder head and of the cover hood which are placed at one another. The retaining elements are formed by spring clamps which with mutually facing nose-shaped support areas engage in adjacent mounting recesses provided in vertical boundary walls of the cover hood and of the cylinder head in such a manner that the direction of action of the support areas of the spring clamps lies approximately on a vertical line that includes a center line of the sections and of the sealing member.
