By providing the side cover oil passage 1113qm, the structural space of the side cover 1113q itself can be fully utilized, the arrangement of pipelines can be avoided, the cost can be saved, and the space utilization rate of the side cover 1113q can be improved. The crank-connecting rod mechanism 114 includes a balancing shaft 1114f, which is used to balance and reduce the vibration of the crankshaft 1141, thereby improving the stability of the engine 11. A main oil circuit 1114k is provided in the crankcase 1114, and the main oil circuit 1114k is connected to the side cover oil circuit 1113qm. A balancing shaft bearing seat 1114m and a crankshaft bearing seat 1114n are provided in the crankcase 1114. Both ends of the balancing shaft 1114f are rotatably connected to the crankcase 1114 through a balancing shaft bearing provided in the balancing shaft bearing seat 1114m, and the crankshaft 1141 is rotatably connected to the crankcase 1114 through a crankshaft bearing 1114p provided in the crankshaft bearing seat 1114n.

[0031] As an implementation method, the magnetic motor 118 is arranged between the crankshaft 1141 and the side cover 1113q. The magnetic motor 118 includes a stator assembly 1182 and a rotor 1183. In the present application, the stator assembly 1182 and the side cover 1113q are fixedly connected. The rotor 1183 forms a rotor cavity 1183a around itself, and the stator assembly 1182 is arranged in the rotor cavity 1183a. A keyway 1183b is arranged between the rotor 1183 and the crankshaft 1141. The rotor 1183 and the crankshaft 1141 are key-connected through the keyway 1183b. The side cover 1113q surrounds the rotor 1183 and surrounds the rotor 1183 and the stator assembly 1182. When the engine 11 is working, the crankshaft 1141 can drive the rotor 1183 to rotate relative to the stator assembly 1182 to cut the magnetic induction line to generate electricity. It can be understood that when the crankshaft 1141 drives the rotor 1183 to rotate at a high speed, a large amount of heat will be generated when the rotor 1183 cuts the magnetic induction line relative to the stator assembly 1182. In this embodiment, the magnetic motor 118 itself has a large power because it needs to output a large amount of electricity. Specifically, the rated power of the magnetic motor 118 is set to be greater than or equal to 0.9kW and less than or equal to 1.5kW. Based on the setting of such a high-power magnetic motor 118, the magnetic motor 118 itself also needs to be provided with a cooling system to maintain the temperature of the magnetic motor 118 within a preset range when generating electricity. Specifically, in order to meet the normal operation of the magnetic motor 118, its temperature needs to be maintained within a range of less than or equal to 220°C. As an implementation method, the present application also provides a cooling oil circuit for cooling the magnetic motor 118. Specifically, the crankshaft 1141 is rotatably connected to the crankcase 1114 through a bearing disposed in a crankshaft bearing seat 1114n, and a crankshaft oil circuit 1141a is disposed in the crankshaft 1141, and the crankshaft oil circuit 1141a is connected to the main oil circuit 1114k through the crankshaft bearing seat 1114n. A rotor oil circuit 1184 is disposed in the rotor 1183, and the rotor oil circuit 1184 is connected to the crankshaft oil circuit 1141a. Among them, the crankshaft oil circuit 1141a is configured as a passage inside the crankshaft 1141. The crankshaft oil circuit 1141a includes a first passage 1141b connected to the main oil circuit 1114k and a second passage 1141c connected to the rotor oil circuit 1184. The second passage 1141c is also provided with a through hole 1141ba penetrating the crankshaft 1141, and the through hole 1141ba is connected to the rotor oil circuit 1184. Furthermore, the rotor 1183 is at least partially penetrated by the rotor oil passage 1184, and the crankshaft oil passage 1141a is connected to the rotor cavity 1183a through the rotor oil passage 1184. When the rotor 1183 rotates, the lubricating fluid passes through the rotor 1183 and can splash onto the stator assembly 1182. This arrangement can prevent the stator assembly 1182 from being ablated and damaged due to excessive temperature, thereby improving the safety, reliability and service life of the magnetic motor 118.
[0032] It can be understood that different powers of the magneto 118 emit different amounts of heat in the working state. In this embodiment, in order to meet the cooling requirements of the higher power magneto 118, the diameter of the through hole 1141ba of the crankshaft 1141 is set to be greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 1.4 mm. There are two through holes 1141ba, which are distributed circumferentially around the crankshaft 1141. Through such a setting, a better lubrication effect can be achieved, so that the magneto 118 can be better lubricated, and its temperature is maintained in a range of less than or equal to 220°C. In addition, it can also avoid excessive outflow of lubricating fluid, resulting in excessive outflow of lubricating fluid in the main oil circuit 1114k, affecting the lubrication effect of other components. As an implementation method, the ratio of the diameter of the through hole 1141ba of the crankshaft 1141 to the rated power of the magneto 118 is greater than or equal to 0.65 mm / kW and less than or equal to 1.56 mm / kW. Furthermore, the ratio of the diameter of the through hole 1141ba of the crankshaft 1141 to the rated power of the magnetic motor 118 is greater than or equal to 0.85 mm / kW and less than or equal to 1.45 mm / kW. It can be understood that the ratio of the diameter of the through hole 1141ba of the crankshaft 1141 to the rated power of the magnetic motor 118 is greater than or equal to 0.95 mm / kW and less than or equal to 1.15 mm / kW. Through the above arrangement, it is possible to ensure that the power generation demand of the high-power magnetic motor 118 of the all-terrain vehicle 200 is met while meeting the cooling requirements of the magnetic motor 118 to avoid damage due to high heat during operation. Furthermore, through the above arrangement, it is possible to reduce the use of other cooling mechanisms to cool the magnetic motor 118, thereby making the engine 11 more compact as a whole, meeting the requirements of the compact body and small body installation space of the all-terrain vehicle 200.
[0033] As an optional embodiment, the rotor oil circuit 1184 includes a first rotor oil circuit 1184a and a second rotor oil circuit 1184b, and the first rotor oil circuit 1184a, the second rotor oil circuit 1184b and the keyway 1183b are arranged around the crankshaft 1141. Specifically, on a first plane 101 perpendicular to the rotation axis of the crankshaft 1141, the projection of the axis of the first rotor oil circuit 1184a on the first plane 101 is the first projection, and the projection of the axis of the second rotor oil circuit 1184b on the first plane 101 is the second projection, the first projection basically extends along the first direction, the second projection basically extends along the second direction, the intersection line of the symmetry plane of the keyway 1183b and the first plane 101 basically extends along the third direction, and the angle between the first direction, the second direction and the third direction is set to 120°. This arrangement makes the local loads borne by the crankshaft 1141 and the rotor 1183 uniform, and ensures the structural strength of the crankshaft 1141 and the rotor 1183. The radius of the first rotor oil circuit 1184a is set to be greater than or equal to 2 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm, and the radius of the second rotor oil circuit 1184b is set to be greater than or equal to 2 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm. This setting method can not only meet the heat dissipation and lubrication requirements of the magnetic motor 118, but also ensure the structural strength of the crankshaft 1141 and the rotor 1183. As an optional embodiment, the radius of the first rotor oil circuit 1184a is set to be greater than or equal to 2.5 mm and less than or equal to 3.5 mm, and the radius of the second rotor oil circuit 1184b is set to be greater than or equal to 2.5 mm and less than or equal to 3.5 mm. Specifically, the radius of the first rotor oil circuit 1184a can be set to 2 mm, 3 mm or 4 mm, etc., and the radius of the second rotor oil circuit 1184b can be set to 2 mm, 3 mm or 4 mm, etc.
[0034] like Figures 8 to 9As shown, the engine 11 also includes a cooling system 11a, in which a heat exchange medium is provided. The cooling system 11a128 allows the heat exchange medium to circulate in the engine 11 to take away the heat generated when the engine 11 is working. The cooling system 11a includes a water pump assembly 11aa, a cooling pipeline 11ab, a heat dissipation pipeline 11ac and a radiator 11ad. The cooling pipeline 11ab connects the water pump assembly 11aa and the parts of the engine 11. The water pump assembly 11aa drives the heat exchange medium to circulate in the parts of the engine 11 to take away the heat generated when the engine 11 is working, and brings the heat exchange medium to the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac through the cooling pipeline 11ab. The heat dissipation pipeline 11ac is connected to the radiator 11ad, so that the heat absorbed by the heat exchange medium is transferred to the external space through the radiator 11ad. It can be understood that when the engine 11 is in different working states, the heat emitted by the heat generating unit in the engine 11 is different, and its cooling requirements are also inconsistent. Specifically, the cooling system 11a includes a large circulation loop and a small circulation loop. Among them, the large circulation loop refers to the water pump assembly 11aa driving the heat exchange medium to flow through the cooling pipeline 11ab, the heating unit of the engine 11, and the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac, and then enter the radiator 11ad to dissipate heat, and then flow out from the radiator 11ad, and continue to flow through the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac and the water pump assembly 11aa to form a loop. Since the radiator 11ad is required to assist in heat dissipation, this loop is suitable for when the engine 11 generates a lot of heat. The small circulation loop refers to the water pump assembly 11aa driving the heat exchange medium to flow through the cooling pipeline 11ab, the heating unit of the engine 11, and then flow back to the cooling pipeline 11ab and enter the loop formed by the water pump assembly 11aa. As an implementation method, the cooling system 11a also includes a thermostat 11ae and a temperature sensor 11af. The temperature sensor 11af is electrically connected to the thermostat 11ae, and is used to monitor the temperature of the heat exchange medium to provide an electrical signal to the thermostat 11ae. The thermostat 11ae is arranged at the connection of the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac and the cooling pipeline 11ab to control the cooling circulation path of the cooling system 11a. Specifically, when the temperature of the heat exchange medium is lower than the preset temperature, the thermostat 11ae is closed, and at this time the cooling system 11a only conducts the small circulation loop. When the temperature of the heat exchange medium is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the thermostat 11ae is turned on, and at this time the large circulation loop and the small circulation loop of the cooling system 11a are connected to achieve sufficient cooling of the engine 11. As an implementation method, the preset temperature is set to 82°C. Below this temperature value, the engine 11 can maintain good operation. When it is higher than the temperature value, the current cooling mode cannot meet the normal operation of the engine 11, and a stronger cooling mode needs to be turned on. In some optional embodiments, the preset temperature can also be set to other temperature values, which will not be repeated here.
[0035] It can be understood that the engine 11 includes a plurality of heat generating units, each of which needs to be sufficiently cooled when in operation to achieve continuous operation of the engine 11. The cooling system 11a includes a first cooling path, which is used to cool the cylinder block 1113. Specifically, the cooling system 11a is provided with a cylinder water jacket 1113y in the cylinder block 1113, and the cylinder water jacket 1113y is arranged around the combustion chamber, and a cylinder head water jacket 1112h is provided in the cylinder head 1112, and the cylinder head water jacket 1112h is arranged around the intake assembly 1122 and the combustion chamber and is connected to the cylinder water jacket 1113y. One end of the cylinder water jacket 1113y is connected to the water pump assembly 11aa, and one end of the cylinder head water jacket 1112h is connected to the thermostat 11ae, and the thermostat 11ae is connected to the water pump assembly 11aa through the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac. It can be understood that the first cooling path is configured as a loop connecting the water pump assembly 11aa, the cylinder water jacket 1113y, the cylinder head water jacket 1112h, the thermostat 11ae and the water pump assembly 11aa.
[0036] In the present application, the valve mechanism 112 includes a supercharger assembly 1121, and the supercharger assembly 1121 is used to increase the intake air volume of the engine 11. The cooling system 11a includes a second cooling path, and the second cooling path is used to cool the supercharger assembly 1121. Specifically, the supercharger assembly 1121 includes an air inlet end 1121e and an air outlet end 1121f. Among them, the air inlet end 1121e is connected to the cylinder water jacket 1113y through the cooling pipeline 11ab, and the air outlet end 1121f is connected to the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac through the cooling pipeline 11ab. Specifically, the water pump assembly 11aa includes a first state that can drive the heat exchange medium to flow in the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac and the cooling pipeline 11ab, and a second state that stops driving the heat exchange medium to flow. When the water pump assembly 11aa is in the first state, the water pump assembly 11aa drives the heat exchange medium to flow in the cylinder water jacket 1113y, the cylinder head water jacket 1112h and the supercharging assembly 1121. At this time, the cooling pipeline 11ab has a first pressure value, and the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac has a second pressure value, and the first pressure value is substantially the same as the second pressure value. When the water pump assembly 11aa is in the second state, the water pump assembly 11aa stops driving the heat exchange medium to flow. At this time, since the supercharging assembly 1121 still has residual heat, it can continue to heat the heat exchange medium in the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac. After the heat exchange medium is vaporized, the pressure in the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac increases, and at the same time, a pressure difference is formed at the air outlet 1121f to produce a "siphon effect". That is, when the water pump assembly 11aa is in the second state, the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac has a third pressure value, and the cooling pipeline 11ab has a fourth pressure value, and the third pressure value is greater than the fourth pressure value. Thus, after the supercharging component 1121 stops working, the heat exchange medium still keeps circulating and absorbing the heat of the supercharging component 1121 under the drive of the pressure difference, thereby avoiding the waste heat of the heating unit from damaging the engine 11. It should be explained here that the power of the water pump assembly 11aa of the cooling system 11a comes from the engine 11 itself. When the engine 11 stops, the water pump assembly 11aa immediately loses its power source. Since the various components of the engine 11 will generate a lot of heat during operation, and its heat is basically discharged through the cooling system 11a, and after the engine 11 stops, there is still a part of heat in the various components of the engine 11; in addition, since the present application also provides a supercharging component 1121, the working principle of the supercharging component 1121 is to use the higher temperature exhaust as the driving force, so that the temperature of the supercharging component 1121 itself is higher. Even after the engine 11 stops, the supercharging component 1121 is kept in a higher temperature range, so it is necessary to continuously cool the supercharging component 1121 after the shutdown.By utilizing the waste heat of the supercharging component 1121 itself to drive the flow of the heat exchange medium, it is avoided to set up other driving components 1211 independent of the engine 11 itself to continue to drive the cooling system 11a to operate after the engine 11 is shut down. On the one hand, it ensures the continuous cooling of the engine 11 after shutdown, and on the other hand, it reduces the heat dissipation cost, so that the overall structure of the engine 11 is more streamlined while meeting the heat dissipation requirements.
[0037] In the present application, the lubrication mechanism further includes an oil cooler 11b, and the cooling system 11a includes a third cooling path, which is used to cool the oil cooler 11b. One end of the oil cooler 11b is connected to one end of the water pump assembly 11aa, and the other end of the oil cooler 11b is connected to one end of the heat dissipation pipeline 11ac close to the water pump assembly 11aa, that is, the third cooling path connects the water pump assembly 11aa, the cooling pipeline 11ab and the oil cooler 11b. The heat exchange medium circulates in the water pump assembly 11aa and the oil cooler 11b1273 and absorbs the heat of the lubricating fluid to improve the lubrication and cooling performance of the lubricating fluid.

The connecting structure 1121k includes a connector 1121m and a connector 1121q, and the connector 1121m is provided with a first channel 1121n, and the first channel 1121n is at least partially connected to the cooling pipeline 11ab. The connector 1121m is provided with a connecting through hole 1121p, and the connector 1121q is penetrated in the connecting through hole 1121p, and a gasket 1121r is provided between the connecting through hole 1121p and the connector 1121q to prevent leakage of the heat exchange medium. The connector 1121q is provided with a second channel 1121x, and the second channel 1121x is connected to the air inlet end 1121e or the air outlet end 1121f. The connecting member 1121q is provided with a connecting through hole 1121p, through which the first channel 1121n and the second channel 1121x are connected. By controlling the radius of the connecting through hole 1121p, the flow rate of the heat exchange medium between the first channel 1121n and the second channel 1121x can be controlled, thereby further improving the cooling efficiency and cooling performance of the cooling system 11a128. Among them, the gasket 1121r can be set as a copper gasket 1121r to improve the reliability of the gasket 1121r.
