ABSTRACT:
An engine housing for a vertical crankshaft engine may be directly mounted to a standard generator, pump, or other device without modifying the device housing. The engine housing has a plurality of raised mounting bosses that are used to attach the device housing to the engine housing. If the engine housing has an oil slinger well, the raised mounting bosses extend from the engine housing surface a sufficient distance to provide clearance for the oil slinger well. The engine housing also has a pilot that either receives an adapter ring or a portion of a device pilot to maintain the concentricity between the engine crankshaft and the device shaft, as well as the proper alignment between the engine housing and the device housing.
