Examples

An engine oil pump system as shown in fig. 1 is installed on an existing engine, and mainly comprises an oil pan 1, an oil pump 2, a cooler 3 and an oil filling channel (an outlet of the oil filling channel is a friction pair of parts needing lubrication) for communicating all parts, wherein the oil pan 1 is installed at the bottom of an engine frame and is connected with the engine frame, a cavity formed between the oil pan 1 and the engine frame is a crankcase, the oil pan 1 adopts a sandwich type design as shown in fig. 1, a sandwich layer 1a is provided with a partition plate 1b, the sandwich layer is divided into two independent oil storage cavities (a left oil storage cavity 1c and a right oil storage cavity 1d) by the partition plate 1b, and a top plate at the top of the sandwich layer is provided with an oil leakage hole 1e which can enable oil dripping from lubricating parts such as an engine crankshaft, a piston and the like to pass through in a single direction; an oil suction pipe 4 is arranged in the oil storage cavity 1d on the right side, the oil suction pipe 4 is communicated with an oil pump 2, and an outlet of the oil pump 5 is communicated with oil filling channels of various lubricating parts of the engine. The oil leakage holes are designed to pass in a single direction, and mainly mean that oil can enter the two oil storage cavities through the oil leakage holes after dropping to a top plate of the interlayer from parts lubricated by an engine and can not overflow into a crankcase from the oil storage cavities, and when the vehicle runs in bumpiness on a rough road, the oil can be stored in the oil storage cavities to avoid liquid level fluctuation and influence on pumping and pumping.

In order to ensure that the engine is cooled and lubricated reasonably and excessive cooling does not occur, the volumes of the left oil storage chamber 1c and the right oil storage chamber 1d in the interlayer are approximately equal to the lubricating oil liquid needed by the engine for lubricating and cooling.

Because the temperature of oil liquid at the initial stage of starting the engine is low, an organic oil cooler 5 is arranged on a pipeline communicated with an oil injection channel at the outlet of the oil pump 2, a bypass pipe 6 is also arranged beside the oil cooler 5, and a temperature control valve 6a is arranged on the bypass pipe.

Adopt the engine oil pump system of above-mentioned design, its theory of operation is: when the engine is in cold start, the cylinder needs to be warmed so as to reasonably lubricate each lubricating part of the vehicle, and simultaneously, the body of the engine is at a higher temperature, which is beneficial to reducing the emission at the initial start stage.

Furthermore, in some extremely cold areas, the low-temperature cold start is very difficult, the heat loss of the engine of the vehicle is fast, in order to ensure smooth ignition, a heat insulation material layer can be further arranged in the right oil storage cavity, so that the heat loss is reduced, meanwhile, an oil liquid heating device is also arranged, the low-temperature fluidity is increased by heating lubricating oil, the friction force of parts at the initial stage of the engine start is reduced, and the low-temperature start performance is improved.

In order to save energy consumption of an engine oil pump under high power, the engine oil pump system is also provided with a set of air compression system for improving oil suction pressure of the engine oil pump, the air compression system is communicated with a fresh air pipeline after being compressed by a supercharger 10, the air compression system is composed of a compressed air pipeline 7 communicated with an engine crankcase, an electromagnetic valve 7a arranged on the pipeline, a pressure sensor arranged in the crankcase and a rotating speed sensor on a crankshaft, and an ECU of a vehicle controls the opening and closing of the electromagnetic valve according to signals of the pressure sensor. The basic principle is that after the supercharger of the engine is started, the pressure sensor in the crankcase measures the air pressure in the crankcase, the rotating speed sensor senses the rotating speed so as to judge the load of the engine, after the signals of the pressure sensor and the rotating speed are transmitted to the ECU, the ECU controls the opening and closing of the electromagnetic valve according to a preset program, and the pressure in the crankcase is controlled by controlling the air inflow of the pressurized fresh air. In the high load state, the pressure of the lubricating oil of the engine needs to be correspondingly increased, the method in the prior art adjusts the oil supply pressure by increasing the rotating speed of the oil pump of the engine, and the method adopts a mode of opening a compressed air pipeline to realize the pressurization of the oil entering the oil pump in advance, so that the pressure difference of the boosting of the oil pump is reduced, and the operation energy consumption of the oil pump is reduced. In addition, the crankcase pressurization can also reduce the phenomenon of gas leakage of the engine cylinder (gas leakage is that fuel gas in the engine cylinder enters the crankcase through a piston ring, so that the concentration of oil mist in the crankcase is increased, and the explosion risk is caused.

After the engine enters a normal load state, the oil in the two oil storage cavities should participate in lubrication, and a person skilled in the art knows that in order to keep the energy loss of the engine low, the consumption of the lubricating oil and the cooling water should be kept at a level just meeting the heat dissipation and lubrication requirements of the best power state, so once the engine enters a normal operation, all the lubricating oil in the oil storage cavities should be circulated, therefore, the invention further arranges a float valve 8 on the partition board of the two oil storage cavities, and in a high load state, the oil in the right oil storage cavity is not enough to supply the high load lubrication requirement of the engine, so when the liquid level in the right oil storage cavity is lower than a set liquid level (in a state that the engine enters a medium-high load operation from an idle speed), the float valve opens the valve due to the fact that the liquid level is reduced and loses enough buoyancy.

In order to reduce unnecessary heat brought away by oil liquid in the idling cylinder warming stage, the oil liquid needs to preferentially fall into an oil storage cavity on the right side, so that a low-level area 1f is formed in the inner concave portion on the right side of a top plate of an interlayer of an oil pan, and a plurality of oil leakage holes which pass in a single direction are formed in the low-level area.

As shown in fig. 2, in order to increase the heat dissipation performance of the engine in a high load state, a heat dissipation fin is further arranged outside the oil storage cavity on the left side of the engine, and meanwhile, the top plate at the top of the interlayer is adaptively designed into a movable structure which is consistent with the size of the oil cavity and comprises a left oil cavity top plate and a right oil cavity top plate, the middle part of the right oil cavity top plate is recessed to form a recessed oil storage area, and the left oil cavity top plate is planar; the left oil cavity top plate and the right oil cavity top plate can move in a mutual transposition mode while the top of the whole interlayer is kept closed. It should be noted that, in order to achieve the above functions, especially the positions of the left oil chamber top plate and the right oil chamber top plate are interchanged, a linkage chain drive or a slide rail mechanism may be adopted, but these can be achieved by those skilled in the art.

The above embodiments are preferred implementations of the present invention, and the present invention can be implemented in other ways without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

Some of the drawings and descriptions of the present invention have been simplified to facilitate the understanding of the improvements over the prior art by those skilled in the art, and some other elements have been omitted from this document for the sake of clarity, and it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that such omitted elements may also constitute the subject matter of the present invention.
