AI Technical Summary
The cooling method of the existing diesel engine rear oil seal is non-force cooling, which causes the engine oil glue and lip aging during high-speed rotation, affecting the sealing effect and oil quality, and cannot effectively reduce friction temperature rise, resulting in a decrease in engine power.
A temperature-controlled diesel engine forced cooling structure is designed. By setting a lubricating oil cooling channel and cooling ring groove on the engine cylinder block and flywheel shell, the oil is pumped into the engine oil and forced cooling through the cooling nozzle and cooling ring groove. Combined with the temperature sensor, the pump oil volume is automatically adjusted to ensure that the rear oil seal temperature does not exceed 120℃.
Forced cooling of the rear oil seal is achieved, avoiding the aging of the engine oil glue and lip, ensuring the quality of the engine oil and sealing effect, extending the service life of the rear oil seal, and improving the power output of the engine.

[0002] The rear oil seal of a diesel engine is used for rotating seal of the crankshaft, and is press-fitted on the flywheel housing and the crankshaft. When the crankshaft rotates at high speed, the temperature of the lip of the rear oil seal in contact with the crankshaft is very high. The rear oil seal of a diesel engine in the prior art relies on the atomized oil or oil droplets in the crankcase to cool it.
