AI Technical Summary
During the sudden braking process, the oil in the engine oil pan runs forward due to inertia, causing the oil suction plate of the oil pump to expose the liquid surface and suck it empty, causing the oil pressure to be low.
An engine oil pan structure is designed. By setting two baffles on the inner wall of the oil pan, the baffle faces the oil pan, and the baffle uses the baffle to gather and flow to the middle to prevent the oil pan from sucking empty; when the lubricating oil returns, most of the lubricating oil is gathered to gather to the middle by setting a stop to prevent the oil pump from sucking empty.
It effectively prevents the oil pump from sucking in the brake process, maintains the stability of the oil pressure, and avoids low-pressure alarms.

[0037] See also Figure 1-6 The present application provides an engine oil pan structure, including an oil pan 10 , two mounting blocks 20 and a baffle assembly 30 .
[0038] The two mounting blocks 20 are fixedly mounted on the inner walls at both ends of the oil pan 10. The baffle assembly 30 includes a baffle 310, a baffle 320, a connecting plate 330, a connecting assembly 340 and a limiting assembly 350. The baffle 320 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the baffle 310. The baffle 310 and the side wall of the connecting plate 330 are fixedly connected. The connecting plate 330 is fixedly sleeved on the connecting assembly 340. The connecting assembly 340 and the two mounting blocks 20 are slidably connected. The limiting assembly 350 is fixedly mounted on the connecting assembly 340.
[0039] In the specific setting, during the braking process of the automobile, two baffles 310 are set on the inner wall of the oil pan 10, and the two baffles 310 are set toward the oil pan. When the lubricating oil in the oil pan 10 flows rapidly toward one side of the oil pan, the lubricating oil on the right side of the two baffles 310 is gathered and flowed toward the middle through the two baffles 310, so that the oil pan will not be in an empty state. When the lubricating oil flows back, two blocks 320 are set to make most of the lubricating oil gather toward the middle, so as to prevent the oil pump from being empty. The baffle 310 and the block 320 have a certain distance from the bottom of the oil pan 10, so that the lubricating oil at the bottom of the oil pan 10 flows at the bottom.
[0040] See also Figure 3 and 5 The facing surfaces of the two mounting blocks 20 are provided with connecting grooves 40, and the two ends of the connecting component 340 are respectively slidably connected to the two connecting grooves 40. The connecting component 340 includes a connecting rod 3410, a conical seat 3420 and two plug blocks 3430. The two conical seats 3420 are respectively fixedly installed on the two plug blocks 3430.
[0041] The two ends of the connecting rod 3410 are fixedly connected to the two conical seats 3420 respectively, the two plug blocks 3430 are slidably set in the two connecting grooves 40 respectively, the limit assembly 350 is fixedly installed on the connecting rod 3410, the connecting assembly 340 also includes two connecting blocks 3440, the two connecting blocks 3440 are fixedly sleeved on the connecting rod 3410, the two connecting plates 330 are fixedly sleeved on the two connecting blocks 3440 respectively, the mounting block 20, the connecting groove 40 and the plug block 3430 are all conically set, the top of the connecting groove 40 is open, and the two ends of the connecting block 3440 are conically set.
[0042] In the specific setting, since the lubricating oil in the oil pan 10 is used for a long time, oil and dirt will accumulate in the oil pan 10, which needs to be cleaned regularly. After the oil pan 10 is separated from the engine, the connecting rod 3410 can be lifted up to remove the connecting rod 3410 from the oil pan 10, thereby removing the baffle 310 and the block 320. At the same time, since the mounting block 20 and the connecting groove 40 thereon are both conically arranged, the angle between the two adjacent surfaces is greater than ninety degrees, thereby facilitating the cleaning of oil and dirt at the corners.
[0043] See also Figure 6 The limit assembly 350 includes a mounting seat 3510 and a limit rod 3520. The limit rod 3520 is fixedly mounted on the top of the connecting rod 3410 through the mounting seat 3510. The mounting seat 3510 is arranged in a conical shape. The limit assembly 350 also includes a rotating plate 3530. The rotating plate 3530 is rotatably connected to the top of the limit rod 3520. A rubber pad is fixedly installed on the top of the rotating plate 3530.
[0044] In a specific configuration, the rubber pad on the top of the rotating plate 3530 is configured to contact the crankcase above, thereby preventing the connecting rod 3410 from sliding upward due to inertia when the car vibrates.
[0045] The working principle of the engine oil pan structure is as follows: when the lubricating oil in the oil pan 10 flows rapidly toward one side of the oil pan, the lubricating oil on the right side of the two baffles 310 is gathered and flows toward the middle through the two baffles 310, so that the oil pan will not be in an empty state. When the lubricating oil flows back, two baffles 320 are set to make most of the lubricating oil gather toward the middle, so as to prevent the oil pump from being empty. The connecting rod 3410 can be lifted upward to achieve the purpose of removing the connecting rod 3410 from the oil pan 10, and the two plug blocks 3430 can be respectively inserted into the two connecting grooves 40 from top to bottom to achieve the installation purpose.
[0046] The above description is only an embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various changes and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in the subsequent drawings.
[0047] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
