ABSTRACT:
The present invention involves a drive unit, specifically a drive unit for a motor vehicle having an internal combustion engine, a cooling system with fan, a crankshaft and a hydrodynamic retarder with a stator, rotor and housing. The retarder is located within a space bounded on one side by the front of the crankcase, on a second side by the fan shaft which runs parallel to the engine shaft, and on a third side by the rear edge of the fan wheel. Viewed from the front, the retarder is substantially located within the fly circle of the fan wheel. Mounted to the crankcase and located between the crankcase, fan and retarder is an intermediate body which supports the retarder housing and stator, the fan, a regulator and switch for a generator, an idler pulley for a drive belt for auxiliary units and an air conditioning compressor.
