Abstract
In an engine generator, a pair of wall plate members are opposed to each other at a distance. Accommodated between the wall plate members are an engine having a crankshaft perpendicular to the wall plate members; an outer-rotor type generator also serving as a flywheel and connected directly to the crankshaft; an intake system device disposed on one side of the engine in a plane perpendicular to an axis of the crankshaft; and an exhaust system device disposed on the other side of the engine in the plane. Thus, the engine generator can be accommodated in a limited space.
