<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pod type propeller and a vessel provided with it requiring no huge blower and gas cooling device, capable of efficiently cooling an electric motor and enhancing propulsion efficiency by reducing a size of the electric motor. <P>SOLUTION: In the pod type propeller 1, the electric motor 4 is built-in in the pod 3 mounted from a ship's bottom through a strut 2 and a propulsion propeller 5 is connected to an output shaft 40 of the electric motor 4. A recessed part 20 is formed on the strut 2 such that a larger part of a contour surface 30 of the pod 3 at a connection part with the pod 3 is exposed to the outside. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
