Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a lightweight engine having high strength and rigidity by forming a power unit of an engine from carbon fiber, glass fiber or the three-dimensional fabric made of these fibers and pouring the liquid resin into the power unit and reaction-hardening said liquid resin. CONSTITUTION:The power unit of an engine, e.g. a cylinder block-shaped body 1 is formed from carbon fiber, glass fiber, and other organic and inorganic fibers or the three-dimensional fabric 2 having a hybrid structure of the above- described materials. The cylinder block-shaped body 1 is charged inside a molding frame 3 made of Al, etc., and the liquid resin of epoxy, nylon monomers, etc., is poured from an injection port 4, and reaction-hardened. Then, the molded article is taken out from the molding frame 3, and a cylinder block finished article which is made of synthetic resin and has the three-dimensional fabric 2 as core member can be obtained. Therefore, the lightweight engine having high strength and high rigidity can be obtained.
