Abstract: A cooling structure for an internal combustion engine includes a spacer. The spacer is fitted inside a water jacket which is formed to surround peripheries of a plurality of cylinder bores arranged one after another on a cylinder row line of a cylinder block of the internal combustion engine. A cooling condition of the cylinder bores is controlled by regulating a flow of cooling water in the water jacket by use of the spacer. A fixing member for fixing the spacer inside the water jacket is provided on an inner wall surface of the spacer facing the cylinder bores.

Abstract: A spacer arranged inside a water jacket which is formed to surround peripheries of cylinder bores in a cylinder block of an internal combustion engine includes support legs extending in an up-and-down direction from a spacer main body part which partitions the water jacket into an upper and lower cooling water passages. The support legs are disposed in opposite end portions in a cylinder row line direction, where the temperatures of the cylinder bores tend to be lower. Accordingly, even if the flow of cooling water is more or less inhibited by the support legs and the cooling effect deteriorates, it is possible to prevent the temperatures of the respective cylinder bores from becoming different by suppressing the influence to a minimum.
