ABSTRACT:
A balancer device installed to an in-line engine comprises a balance shaft which includes first and second journals at which the balance shaft is supported through first and second bearings. The first bearing is disposed near the front side of the engine and set in a retainer for rotatably fixing the balance shaft. The second bearing is disposed near a generally center portion in the axial direction of the crankshaft and secured to a cylinder block. A pair of unbalance portions are disposed near the second journal. The diameter of the first journal is formed smaller than that of the second journal to suppress the friction loss of the first journal.
