In the embodiment according to Figure 1In the embodiment of the application, the movable valve support 4 comprises a valve support rod 41, a spring 42 and a valve clamp 43. The valve support rod 41 is configured as a cylindrical rod with a flange at one end, the spring 42 can be sleeved on the valve support rod 41 and stopped by the flange. The other end of the valve support rod 41 is inserted into the groove of the slide rod 2 and can slide along the groove of the slide rod 2. The valve clamp 43 is configured as a U-shaped plate, which is clamped on the slide rod 2 and can slide on the slide rod 2 along the slide rod 2. A hole through which the valve support rod 41 can pass is configured on the U-shaped plate. The valve support rod 41 is inserted into the groove of the slide rod 2 through the hole, and the valve support rod 41 is in interference fit with the hole. Threaded holes are opened respectively at the two ends of the U-shaped plate, and bolts are installed in the threaded holes, so that the valve clamp 43 can be fixed on the slide rod 2 by tightening the bolts, so that the positions of the valve support rod 41 and the spring 42 are also fixed. The number of movable valve supports 4 corresponds to the number of valves, and there are usually four movable valve supports 4 for each cylinder, that is, two movable valve supports 4 corresponding to the intake valves and two movable valve supports 4 corresponding to the exhaust valves.
[0029] When the cylinder head assembly is assembled using the cylinder head assembly assembling mechanism according to the application, the assembly steps are as follows:
[0030] First, the distance between each pair of valves on the same side of the cylinder head is measured, and the distance between the movable valve supports 4 on the same slide rod is adjusted by the valve clamp 43 according to the distance, and then the position of the movable valve support 4 is fixed by fixing the valve clamp 43 by the bolts. The positions of the slide rod clamp and the slide rod support column in the groove on the base plate 1 are adjusted to adjust the distance between the opposite movable valve supports 4 installed on different slide rods 2.
[0031] Subsequently, the included angle of the central axis of the movable valve support 4 is adjusted to be consistent with the included angle of the central axes of the two valves by rotating the slide rod 2, then the cylinder head is placed on the cylinder head assembly assembling mechanism, and then the bolts of the valve clamp are tightened to fix the position of the movable valve support 4. At this time, the positions of the slide rod clamp and the slide rod support column can be adjusted again to make the positions of the movable valve supports 4 in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the slide rod correspond to the positions of the valves. At this time, it is also necessary to ensure that the intersection of the central axes of the two groups of movable valve supports 4 of the cylinder head assembly assembling mechanism falls on the rotation axis of the valve lock press.
[0032] If the height of the positioning pin 6 used is not suitable for realizing that the intersection of the central axes of the two groups of movable valve supports 4 of the cylinder head assembly assembling mechanism falls on the rotation axis of the valve lock press, shims can be added to the bottom of the slide rod clamp to adjust the height of the slide rod 2 to realize that the intersection of the central axes of the two groups of movable valve supports 4 of the cylinder head assembly assembling mechanism falls on the rotation axis of the valve lock press.
[0033] Finally, the position of the support column 8 in the long hole of the second pad 7 is adjusted to adjust the height of the support column 8, thereby fitting the height of the cylinder head.
[0034] It should be understood that all the above preferred embodiments are exemplary but not restrictive, and various modifications or variations of the above described specific embodiments made by those skilled in the art under the concept of the present application shall be within the legal protection scope of the present application.
