<p>The present invention addresses the problem of providing a heat engine system that brings about a reduction in the necessary strength required of an internal combustion engine. A heat engine system (1) proposed as a means to solve this problem is equipped with: an internal combustion engine (11); a supercharger (12) that utilizes the energy of an exhaust gas discharged from the internal combustion engine (11) in order to increase the pressure of intake air to be sent into the internal combustion engine (11); and an air-cooling machine (18) or the like that is serving as a peripheral device thereof. A supercharging unit comprising the supercharger (12) and the peripheral device thereof is housed inside a housing (20) that is installed on different pedestal (32) from pedestal (31) on which the internal combustion engine (11) is mounted. Consequently, the weight of the supercharging unit is never imposed on the internal combustion engine (11).</p> |
