It is desired to make the power unit small in size to improve the assemblability of the power unit and improve the durability of the fuel hose. [Means for Solving the Problems] To achieve the above object, the first invention is an engine and a transmission for shifting the output of the engine to the rear wheels, and supports the rear wheels at the rear axle. The front part of the power unit is supported by the vehicle body frame in a swingable manner. The fuel tank is mounted on the vehicle body frame at a position separated from the engine in the front-rear direction of the vehicle body frame. The fuel hose guided by the fuel pumped fuel is a small vehicle that is connected to a fuel injection valve attached to the engine, and is characterized in that the fuel pump is built into the fuel tank and is used for The first clamp which is connected at one end to the middle portion of the fuel hose which is pumped by the fuel pump is fixed to the vehicle body frame, and the fuel is between the fuel injection valve and the first clamp. The hose is arranged to be bent in the left-right direction of the vehicle body frame. The structure invented by the first table, fuel Kuriura, is in the rear direction of the vehicle body frame. It is separated from the engine. In the power unit, the power unit can be miniaturized and the assemblability of the power unit can be improved. And in response to the action of the power unit swinging up and down, the first hoop in the fuel hose-6- (3) (3) 200406538 position between the positioner and the engine will be twisted 'to prevent the fuel hose from bending and deforming The strength relative to a twisted fuel hose is higher than the strength relative to a bend, so the durability of the fuel hose can be improved. A second invention is a structure of the first invention, and the second clamp for holding the part of the fuel hose close to the engine is fixed to the engine side, and the first and second clamps In the meantime, the fuel hose is configured to be bent to the left and right direction of the vehicle body frame; with this structure, it is possible to mention that the fuel hose is bent to the left and right direction of the vehicle body frame by mistake. It is accurate and prevents bending deformation at the connection portion of the fuel hose toward the fuel injection valve. The third invention is directed to the structure of the second invention. The first and second clamps are separately arranged on the left and right sides of the centerline of the vehicle body extending forward and backward. With this structure, the By setting the length between the first and second retractors of the fuel hose to be long, it is possible to reliably suppress the bending load from being applied to the fuel hose, and to further improve the durability of the fuel hose. The fourth invention is the structure according to the third invention, and the fuel hose between the first and the first retractors is arranged so that whatever the hoop comes from, it faces the vehicle body frame. The left and right directions extend on the same side. With this structure, the length between the first and second hoop of the fuel hose can be set longer, and the durability of the fuel hose can be further improved. The fifth invention is directed to the structure of the above-mentioned first, second, third, or fourth invention. The fuel hose is a multilayer high-pressure type. With this structure, it is possible to increase the fuel consumption by -7- (4) (4) 200406538. The strength of the tube helps to improve the durability of the fuel hose.
