Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of motorcycles, and in particular to an engine with multiple oil return channels and a motorcycle. Background Art

[0002] The camshaft and other parts installed on the engine cylinder head need to be lubricated with lubricating oil. The lubricating oil after lubrication often returns to the crankcase through the timing chain cavity that is connected to the camshaft installation chamber to meet the circulation needs of the lubricating system lubricating oil and avoid the lubricating oil circuit from sucking air and affecting the lubrication of the engine. The existing parallel twin-cylinder dual camshaft structure is often used in vertical engines. After the horizontal engine is arranged with a dual camshaft structure, in order to ensure that the oil at the lowest point of the cylinder head chain cavity returns to the crankcase along the chain cavity, the center of the engine cylinder and the horizontal plane are often designed to be at a large angle, thereby reducing the distance between the engine and the vehicle storage box. The storage box space is designed to place a single full helmet. In order to meet the need of placing two full helmets in the storage box, an oil return channel is often designed in the camshaft operating chamber of the cylinder head to allow the engine oil on the cylinder head to return to the crankcase for circulation of the lubrication system. The timing chain in the chain chamber is lubricated by oil injection through the injection pipe designed in the crankcase. However, in this structure, due to the small horizontal angle between the cylinder head and the crankcase, the position of the chain chamber under the cam is lower than the oil return port due to the dual camshaft structure. At the same time, the number of oil return channels is limited, and the lubricating oil on the engine cylinder head returns slowly. In order to meet the circulating oil consumption of the lubrication system, a large amount of lubricating oil needs to be added to the engine crankcase to avoid cavitation in the oil circuit and affect the lubrication of the engine. However, the addition of a large amount of lubricating oil will make the engine heavier, the vehicle's handling is lower, and the engine loss is increased.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the engine structure in the prior art and to improve the engine lubricating oil return oil circuit structure, so that the lubricating oil inside the engine can be quickly returned from the cylinder head to the crankcase without adding a large amount of lubricating oil into the engine crankcase.

Figure 3 is the structural diagram of the chain cavity. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the oil return circuit structure on the chain chamber side.

Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the cylinder oil return position. Fig. 9 This is a schematic diagram of the cylinder head oil return position. Fig.10 It is a schematic diagram of the cylinder head chain cavity structure, such as Figure 1-10As shown: the multi-return oil channel engine of the present embodiment, the engine is arranged with an oil return channel for returning lubricating oil from the cylinder head 12 to the crankcase through the cylinder block 11, the oil return channel includes a central oil return oil passage 8 located in the middle and a chain chamber side oil return oil passage 2 and a non-chain chamber side oil return oil passage 9 located on both sides of the middle; in the present structure, the engine is a horizontal parallel twin-cylinder dual camshaft engine, the middle is the left and right direction relative to the motorcycle, the chain chamber side oil return oil passage 2 is relatively located on the right part of the engine, the non-chain chamber side oil return oil passage 9 is relatively located on the left part of the engine, the left and right parts are the left and right directions of the motorcycle, the chain chamber side oil return oil passage 2 extends from the inside of the cylinder head 12 through the inside of the cylinder block 11 to the crankcase, the central oil return oil passage 8 extends from the inside of the cylinder head 12 through the inside of the cylinder block 11 to the crankcase, and the non-chain chamber side oil return oil passage 9 extends from the inside of the cylinder head 12 through the inside of the cylinder block 11 to the crankcase To the crankcase, by setting up three oil return circuits, when the whole vehicle is riding normally, the chain chamber side oil return circuit 2, the middle oil return circuit 8 and the non-chain chamber side oil return circuit 9 can all enable the lubricating oil on the cylinder head 12 to quickly fall back into the crankcase. When the whole vehicle is riding on an inclined left side, the middle oil return circuit 8 and the non-chain chamber side oil return circuit 9 can enable the lubricating oil on the cylinder head 12 to quickly fall back into the crankcase. When the whole vehicle is riding on an inclined right side, the chain chamber side oil return circuit 2 and the middle oil return circuit 8 can enable the lubricating oil on the cylinder head to quickly fall back into the crankcase. In this way, the lubricating oil can quickly fall back from the cylinder head 12 to the crankcase under different driving conditions, meeting the oil return demand of the lubrication system without adding a large amount of lubricating oil into the crankcase, thereby reducing the weight of the whole vehicle, improving the handling performance, and avoiding the lubricating oil remaining in the cylinder head 12 and the exhaust camshaft 3, resulting in a large thermal load on the engine and reduced performance.

[0032] In the prior art, in order to meet the need of placing two full helmets in the storage box of a motorcycle, an oil return channel is often designed in the camshaft operating chamber of the cylinder head of the engine to meet the requirement of returning the engine oil on the cylinder head to the crankcase for circulation of the lubrication system, and the timing chain 5 in the chain chamber is lubricated by oil injection through an oil injection pipe designed in the crankcase; however, in this structure, due to the small horizontal angle between the cylinder head and the crankcase, the position of the chain chamber under the cam in the dual camshaft structure is lower than the oil return port, and the number of oil return channels is limited, and the lubricating oil on the engine cylinder head returns slowly. In order to meet the circulating oil consumption of the lubrication system, a large amount of lubricating oil needs to be added to the engine crankcase to avoid cavitation in the oil circuit, which affects the lubrication of the engine. The addition of a large amount of lubricating oil will make the engine heavier, the vehicle's maneuverability will be lower, and the engine loss will be increased. The multi-return oil channel engine and motorcycle of the present invention improve the engine's lubricating oil return structure. By arranging three oil return oil channels in the engine, the lubricating oil in the cylinder head can quickly fall back to the crankcase when the motorcycle is in different driving conditions, reducing the amount of engine oil filling, avoiding the oil pump sucking empty and causing poor lubrication and damage to the engine, reducing the weight of the whole vehicle compared with the prior art, improving the maneuverability of the whole vehicle, and also avoiding the problem that the lubricating oil cannot be returned to the crankcase and is stored in the cylinder head and exhaust camshaft 3, resulting in a large heat load on the engine and reduced performance.
