Abstract
An internal combustion engine-side mounting bracket (6) is made of metal, and has a plurality of mounting portions (10). Each mounting portion (10) is formed by a bulging portion having a semi-cylindrical cross section that protrudes forward with respect to an end surface, located at one end side, of an internal combustion engine (1). Since the internal combustion engine-side mounting bracket (6) has the plurality of mounting portions (10), it is possible to form the internal combustion engine-side mounting bracket (6) to be highly rigid and compact without having to form cross-sectional shapes of the plurality of mounting portions (10) to be large. Mountability into a vehicle can therefore be improved.
