AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The external piping system of the existing rocker arm housing of internal combustion engines is prone to damage, has leakage points, and may interfere with other components, resulting in high assembly complexity.

Method used

A rocker arm housing is designed, comprising side walls and a top wall, an internal passage and a fuel return channel, reducing the need for an external piping system. The side walls and top wall are made of cast metal, and the internal passage is integrally formed between the side walls and the top wall, providing fluid communication between the fuel injector and the fuel return channel, and is sealed using an overflow pipe and a plug.

Benefits of technology

It reduces fuel leak paths, lowers component count and assembly complexity, improves accessibility to engine components, adapts to changes in fuel injector location, and reduces the number of fluid connections to be removed and installed.

Abstract

一种摇臂壳体被配置成封闭摇臂轴和连接到从内燃机的气缸盖突出的推杆的摇臂。摇臂壳体包括被配置成封闭摇臂轴的侧壁和从侧壁的上部分横向延伸以便在摇臂上延伸的顶壁。摇臂壳体还包括壳口,该壳口被配置成容纳燃料喷射器或用于将燃料供应到内燃机的燃料喷射器的燃料供应管。摇臂壳体还包括在侧壁的至少一部分内延伸的燃料回流通道。该燃料回流通道包括:在侧壁的内部表面处的入口,该入口被配置成接收来自喷射器的过量燃料;在侧壁的外部表面处的出口,该出口被配置成输出过量燃料,其中出口从入口横向偏移;以及在入口和出口之间延伸的内部通路。内部通路在摇臂壳体的侧壁中在侧壁的内部表面和侧壁的外部表面之间一体地形成。内部通路在侧壁的内部表面和外部表面之间的方向上具有次分量,并且在入口和出口之间的横向偏移的方向上具有主分量。
