The hydrodynamic retarder can play a good auxiliary role in long-distance braking of the commercial truck. The existing hydrodynamic retarder on the market at present generally consists of a stator, a rotor, an oil pump, an oil storage tank and a heat exchanger. The stator is a retarder shell and is connected with the rear end of the speed changer or a frame, the rotor is connected with a transmission shaft of a vehicle through a hollow shaft, and blades are cast on the rotor and the stator. When the rotor is in operation, pressure is applied to the oil storage tank through the operation of the control valve, so that the working fluid is filled in the working cavity between the rotor and the stator. When the rotor rotates, a torque is applied to the stator by the working fluid, and the reaction torque of the stator becomes the braking torque of the rotor. The kinetic energy of the automobile is consumed by the friction of the working fluid and the impact on the stator and converted into heat energy, so that the temperature of the working fluid is increased. The working fluid is introduced into the heat exchanger to circulate, transfers heat to the cooling water, and is then discharged through the engine cooling system.

At present, the hydraulic retarder which is marketed and reported publicly in China has common defects that: 1. and the normal use of commercial vehicles with the loading capacity of more than 50 tons cannot be completely met. 2. The normal running of the freight commercial vehicle on the slope with the running speed of over 80Km/H and the downhill gradient of over 6 percent can not be met. 3. The oil consumption of the commercial vehicle with the hydraulic retarder is increased by nearly 2-5%. 4. The heat exchange is slow, and when the temperature is too high, the high-temperature protection withdrawing time is too long, so that the downhill slow speed is influenced.

The invention discloses an enhanced hydraulic retarder which transmits external power to a gear spline main shaft 21 of a power transmission mechanism 2 through a gear transmission mechanism outside a vehicle, so that the gear spline main shaft 21 drives an intermediate turbine 22 matched with the gear spline main shaft through a spline to rotate together. When a retarder starting working instruction is entered, firstly, the air cylinder 421 of the oil supply mechanism 4 of the retarder works to push the valve core 422 to displace, the oil circuit entering the high-pressure oil cavity is opened, the gear oil pump 41 starts to run under the drive of the gear spline main shaft 21, the oil in the normal-pressure oil cavity is pumped into the high-pressure oil cavity, and the cooled low-temperature oil also enters the high-pressure oil cavity together. The oil entering the high-pressure oil chamber rapidly enters the turbine chamber 34 from the middle parts of the rear fixed turbine 32 and the middle turbine 22 in sequence under the action of pressure difference, so that the inner space of the turbine chamber 34 is filled with the oil in a short time; the amount of oil entering the turbine chamber 34 is controlled by the amount of displacement of the valve element 422, and the amount of displacement of the valve element 422 is controlled by the amount of charging pressure in the cylinder 421 and the amount of spring force of the valve element return spring 423. As long as the pressure of the compressed gas introduced into the cylinder 421 is changed, the braking force applied to the outside generated by the braking force generating mechanism of the retarder can be changed. Because the turbine cavity 34 is filled with oil, the intermediate turbine 22 and the blades of the front fixed turbine 31 and the rear fixed turbine 32 on two sides of the intermediate turbine agitate the oil to move, a reverse resistance force is generated under the action of centrifugal force, the reverse resistance force acts on the intermediate turbine 22 to stop the rotation of the intermediate turbine 22, the resistance force is transmitted to the gear spline spindle 21 matched with the intermediate turbine 22 through the gear transmission of the gear spline spindle 21, acts on the external gear transmission mechanism to provide a reverse acting force for the external mechanism, when the acting force is equal to the rotating torsion of the external mechanism, the external mechanism performs constant speed movement, and when the acting force is larger than the rotating torsion of the external mechanism, the external mechanism performs deceleration movement until finally stopping.

The reverse torque force generated by the oil blending of the middle turbine 22 and the front and rear fixed turbines consumes part of the work done by the external transmission mechanism, and the consumed part of the work is converted into heat energy which is transmitted to the oil and then transmitted to the whole mechanism by the oil. In order to prevent the temperature of the oil and the entire mechanism from being continuously raised, the oil is introduced into the heat exchange mechanism 5, and the heat of the oil is exchanged with the cooling medium by the heat exchanger 51, so that the temperature of the oil and the entire mechanism is raised to a certain degree and then reaches equilibrium. The heat generated during operation is exchanged and dissipated through the heat exchange mechanism 5. High-temperature high-pressure oil in the turbine working cavity flows into a heat dissipation through cavity in the main body of the heat exchanger 51 through a high-temperature oil inlet and a high-temperature oil inlet pipe 52 under the action of pressure difference, and the heat dissipation through cavity is a small cavity formed by overlapping multiple layers of heat conduction sheets and multiple layers of heat conduction spacers, and a part of the small cavities are communicated with each other to form a uniform cavity in which only high-temperature media (oil is used herein) flow, and the uniform cavity is called as a heat dissipation through cavity; the other small cavities are communicated with each other to form another unified chamber, and only low-temperature medium (water is used herein) flows in the chamber, so that the chamber is called a heat absorption through cavity; the two cavities are separated by a spacer and are not communicated with each other. The inlet and outlet of the two-way cavity are respectively a high-temperature oil inlet, a low-temperature oil outlet, a high-temperature cooling medium outlet and a low-temperature cooling medium inlet. The high-temperature oil flowing in the heat dissipation through cavity is fully contacted with the surfaces of the heat conduction sheet and the heat conduction spacer, and the heat of the high-temperature oil is transferred to the heat conduction sheet and the heat conduction spacer in a conduction and radiation mode; meanwhile, after the low-temperature cooling medium (usually water) entering from the low-temperature cooling medium inlet enters the heat absorption through cavity in the main body of the heat exchanger 51, the heat on the surfaces of the heat conduction sheet and the heat conduction partition sheet which are fully contacted with the low-temperature cooling medium is transferred to the cooling medium in a conduction and radiation mode, and the cooling medium flows out of the main body of the heat exchanger and then flows into an external air-cooled radiator through an external guide pipe to dissipate the heat to the external atmosphere, so that the whole process of heat exchange is completed. The cooled oil flows back to the normal pressure oil cavity of the oil supply mechanism through the low temperature oil outlet pipe 53 and continuously participates in the generation of the reverse braking power.

When a retarder closing work instruction is entered, firstly, the air cylinder 421 exhausts air to reset, the valve core 422 resets through the pushing of the valve core reset spring 423, the oil path entering the high-pressure oil chamber is closed, the oil path entering the normal-pressure oil chamber is opened, after the normal-pressure oil chamber is filled with oil, redundant oil enters the oil tank cylinder 61 of the auxiliary oil tank 6, 80% -90% of the oil in the turbine chamber is discharged, the generated reverse torsion force borne by the middle turbine 22 disappears, the external gear transmission mechanism does not bear the reaction force any more, and the work of the external gear transmission mechanism does not lose any more.
