Abstract:
An internal combustion engine includes: a crankcase that supports a crankshaft rotatably about a rotational axis; a cylinder block connected with the crankcase and including at least one pair of cylinders that sandwich a valve chamber therebetween in an axial direction of the crankshaft, the valve chamber housing therein a valve actuating mechanism that connects a camshaft to the crankshaft; a detected member disposed between crank pins corresponding to the pair of cylinders, the detected member rotating integrally with the crankshaft; and a detection sensor disposed to face a trajectory of the detected member and generating a pulse signal in accordance with movement of the detected member. Accordingly, the internal combustion engine can avoid displacement of a nearby part and enlargement of the crankcase as much as possible, while allowing the detected member to be increased in size.

Claim (Index 10):
The internal combustion engine according to  claim 2 , further comprising:\n a transmission housed in the crankcase and connected with the crankshaft, wherein the detection sensor is mounted on the crankcase around the rotational axis and between the cylinder block and the transmission.
