摘要

A power unit mounted across the longitudinal axis of a motor vehicle comprises a torque converter casing, a main transmission mechanism and differential gear casing connected to the power unit along orthogonal assembling planes and centered to one another by means of a cylindrical fitting. A detachable casing section assembled on the one hand to the main casing of the transmission mechanism along an assembling plane perpendicular to the assembling plane of the power unit crankcase and on the other hand to the torque converter casing is provided.
