A search for axioelectric absorption of solar axions produced in the $ p + d rightarrow {^3rm{He}}+gamma~(5.5~ rm{MeV})$ reactions has been performed with a BGO detector placed in a low-background setup. A model-independent limit on an axion-nucleon and axion-electron coupling constant has been obtained: $| g_{Ae}times g_{AN}^3|< 1.9times 10^{-10}$ for 90% confidence level. The constrains of the axion-electron coupling have been obtained for hadronic axion with masses in (0.1 - 1) MeV range: $|g_{Ae}| leq (0.96 - 8.2)times 10^{-8}$.
