ABSTRACT:
A lubricating structure for an engine includes a crankcase for supporting a crankshaft formed from a pair of case halves coupled to each other along a mating plane extending along a plane perpendicular to an axial line of the crankshaft. An oil reservoir in a lower portion of the crankcase extends across the mating plane. A pump chamber of an oil pump is formed between the two case halves across the mating plane. Lubricant is drawn from the oil reservoir into the oil pump using a structure which can achieve reduction of the number of parts and improve the ease of assembly. The structure includes a path groove, which forms an oil suction path for interconnecting the oil pump and the oil reservoir, formed in at least one of the two case halves.
