PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compact forced air-cooled engine with high quietness by effectively reducing radiation sound and blowing noise from a crankcase and a cylinder part. SOLUTION: The forced air-cooled engine has a cylinder part 3 projected from a crankcase 2 to one side, and a fuel tank T disposed above the crankcase 2. An exhaust muffler M is arranged above the cylinder part 3 side-by-side with the fuel tank T. A shroud 10 has: a scroll part 11 surrounding a cooling fan 9; a synthetic resin shroud upper part 15 extended between the crankcase 2 and the fuel tank T; and a synthetic resin air guide duct part 25 continuous to a discharge port 11b of the scroll part 11, and surrounding an entire circumference of the cylinder part 3. The shroud 10 further has an air discharge port 26 formed in an upper wall of the air guide duct part 25 and opened to the exhaust muffler M. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
