ABSTRACT:
A generator set housing has a skeletal frame with corners which conform to ISO standards. The frame members are welded together and are held in position during welding by tanging and wedging. This allows the frame to be self-squaring which eliminates the need for the use of jigs to hold the frame the together during welding. The skeletal frame is covered by panels which provide access to the generator set for service and repair. The panels are held in place by self drill and tap screws which are inserted from within the housing and would also be released from within the housing in order to enable removal of the panels. Folded sections are used throughout the housing. The dimensional accuracy is much greater due to the use of laser cutting to form the blanks from which the folded sections, including the tongues, which are integral, and the mating slots, were produced.
