In addition, the terms "first", "second", and the like are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, features defined as "first", "second", and the like may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0027] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.

[0028] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0029] The joint between the cylinder head injection hole or airway and the water cavity side of the base plate (fire surface) is a common location for fatigue cracking of the cylinder head. The stress-strain cloud diagram of the cylinder head under the bolt preload is shown in the figure below. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the strain and stress at the connection between the airway wall or the injector hole and the base plate (hereinafter referred to as the dangerous point) are not large. When there is a thermal load, the cylinder head fire surface is obviously "protruding" outward. At this time, the dangerous part is mainly tensile stress. The stress-strain cloud diagram under preload and temperature load is as follows Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the stress-strain cloud diagram of the cylinder head under the explosion pressure is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, at this time, the deformation of the base plate is "recovered", and the displacement within the "engine cylinder diameter" range is the largest. At this time, the stress at the dangerous point becomes a compressive stress state again; through the analysis of the stress-strain results of the cylinder head, it can be seen that the tensile stress generated by the cylinder head under the action of the thermal load is the main load for cracking in the dangerous part. If the loading is not considered during the component test, it will be difficult to simulate the actual stress state of the cylinder head.

[0030] Therefore, a method for simulating engine cylinder head load is proposed, comprising the following steps:

[0031] S1. Install the fastening device to the surface of the cylinder head;

[0032] S2. Extend the loading rod into the oil injection hole or air passage through the fastening device;

[0033] S3, simulating the uneven state of thermal load on the intake and exhaust sides by loading the rod;

[0034] S4. Determine the load on the loading rod; use the finite element analysis method of linear increase of multiple load parts to find the linear relationship between the loading load and the stress and safety factor of the dangerous parts, and determine the appropriate loading load.

[0035] S5. Convert the loading load into installation preload.

[0036] Preferably, Figure 1 As shown, the fastening device is in the shape of a rectangular block, and the fastening device includes a fastening block and a loading rod body. The fastening block is provided with a No. 1 screw hole, a No. 2 screw hole and a matching hole. Bolts respectively pass through the No. 1 screw hole and the No. 2 screw hole to fix the fastening block to the surface of the cylinder head. The fastening block also has a matching hole, and the matching hole corresponds to the injection hole or the air duct. The loading rod body passes through the matching hole and is placed in the injection hole or the air duct.

[0037] Preferably, an internal thread is provided at the opening of the matching hole, and an external thread is provided on the surface of the loading rod body, so as to realize a threaded connection between the loading rod body and the matching hole.

[0038] Preferably, the loading rod includes a straight rod and a carrier, wherein one side of the bottom of the straight rod is an inclined structure, the ratio of the inclined length to the diameter of the straight rod is 1:3-1:4; the angle of inclination of the inclined surface and the horizontal plane is 30°-45°; the carrier is installed on the inclined surface of the straight rod.

[0039] Preferably, the force on the intake and exhaust sides can be distributed by the length and angle of the inclined surface to simulate the uneven state of the thermal load on the intake and exhaust sides; when determining the load of the loading rod, such as Figure 2 As shown, the linear relationship between the loading load, stress at dangerous parts and safety factor is found by using the finite element analysis method of linear increase of loads at multiple load parts, and the appropriate loading load is determined, and then the loading load is converted into the installation preload.

[0040] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
