Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of motorcycle engines and relates to a rotational speed detection mechanism for a motorcycle engine. Background Art
[0002] An engine is a power device that converts other forms of energy into kinetic energy and is a component device of vehicles such as automobiles and motorcycles.
[0003] For existing engines, for example, a Chinese patent document discloses an engine and its motorcycle [Patent No.: 202210160191.2; Application Publication No.: CN116677723A], which includes: a main shaft, an oil passage penetrating the main shaft is arranged inside the main shaft; a first gear of different gears is installed on the main shaft; a countershaft, a second gear of different gears is installed on the countershaft; the first gear meshes with the second gear; a clutch is installed at one end of the main shaft; a crankshaft drives the main shaft through the clutch; a throttle valve is installed in the oil passage; the throttle valve is arranged at one end of the oil passage close to the clutch.
[0004] For the engine of this structure, the shifting mechanism includes a first rotational speed sensor and a second rotational speed sensor. The first rotational speed sensor is electrically connected to an electronic control unit and is used to monitor the rotational speed of the main shaft. The second rotational speed sensor is electrically connected to the electronic control unit and is used to monitor the rotational speed of the output shaft, and the output shaft is the countershaft. However, for the engine of this structure, the main shaft, the output shaft, and the crankshaft are all located in the box body. The main shaft is arranged between the crankshaft and the output shaft, that is, the position of the main shaft is relatively at the center of the box body. After installing the engine into the motorcycle, the outer wall of the box body corresponding to the main shaft is located at a relatively inner position of the motorcycle. The first rotational speed sensor is installed on the box body and directly detects the main shaft. The first rotational speed sensor is relatively installed at a relatively inner position of the motorcycle. When the first rotational speed sensor fails and needs to be repaired, the box body needs to be removed, and then the first rotational speed sensor can be repaired or replaced. The repair of the first rotational speed sensor is troublesome. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to address the above problems existing in the prior art and propose a rotational speed detection mechanism for a motorcycle engine, and the technical problem to be solved is how to reasonably utilize space to make the arrangement of the rotational speed sensor reasonable and the repair of the rotational speed sensor convenient.
[0006] The object of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions: A rotational speed detection mechanism for a motorcycle engine. The engine includes a box body, and a main shaft and a countershaft are arranged in the box body. It is characterized in that the rotational speed detection mechanism includes a driving wheel fixedly connected to the main shaft, a driven wheel sleeved on the countershaft axially positioned and circumferentially rotatable, and a first rotational speed sensor fixedly connected to the box body. The driving wheel and the driven wheel are meshed with each other. The rotation of the main shaft drives the driven wheel to rotate through the driving wheel. The first rotational speed sensor is used to detect the rotational speed of the driven wheel.
[0007] The rotation of the main shaft drives the driving wheel to rotate together. The driven wheel is sleeved on the countershaft axially positioned and circumferentially rotatable. The driving wheel drives the driven wheel to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel will not affect the rotation of the countershaft. By detecting the rotational speed of the driven wheel with the first rotational speed sensor, the rotational speeds of the driving wheel and the main shaft can be judged, whether the rotational speed of the main shaft is reasonable can be judged, and whether the engine is working normally can be judged. The main shaft is located between the countershaft and the crankshaft. The position of the main shaft in the box body is relatively centered, and the position of the countershaft in the box body is relatively close to the side of the box body. Through the arrangement of the driving wheel and the driven wheel in this rotational speed detection mechanism, the rotational speed state of the main shaft is transferred from the center of the box body to the side of the box body. After the engine is installed in the motorcycle, the position of the first rotational speed sensor is located outside the motorcycle, enabling the operator to directly disassemble and assemble the first rotational speed sensor, making rational use of space, arranging the sensor reasonably, and facilitating the maintenance of the sensor. Both the driving wheel and the driven wheel are gears. Gear transmission is not easily damaged and does not require maintenance.
[0008] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism for a motorcycle engine, the main shaft and the driving wheel are of an integral structure, and the outer diameter of the driven wheel is much larger than the outer diameter of the driving wheel. The driving wheel and the driven wheel are additional components for detecting the rotational speed of the main shaft. The small outer diameter of the driving wheel makes the setting of the driving wheel hardly affect the rotation of the main shaft. At the same time, since the driven wheel is sleeved on the countershaft circumferentially rotatable, the rotation of the driven wheel will not affect the countershaft, and the friction between the driven wheel and the countershaft is small enough, so the setting of the driven wheel hardly affects the rotation of the main shaft either, making the structure and arrangement of this rotational speed detection mechanism reasonable. The outer diameter of the driven wheel can be 5 - 10 times the outer diameter of the driving wheel.
[0009] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, the rotational speed detection mechanism further includes a detection wheel fixedly connected to the auxiliary shaft and a second rotational speed sensor fixedly connected to the box body. The box body has a support wall. One end of the auxiliary shaft passes through the support wall. The driven wheel and the detection wheel are respectively located on both sides of the support wall. The rotation of the main shaft drives the detection wheel to rotate through the auxiliary shaft. The second rotational speed sensor is used to detect the rotational speed of the detection wheel. The inner ends of the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor both extend into the box body, and the inner ends of the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are respectively located on both sides of the support wall.
[0010] The main shaft drives the auxiliary shaft to rotate through different gear ratios, realizing the change of the rotational speed of the auxiliary shaft. The detection wheel is fixedly connected to the auxiliary shaft, that is, the rotation of the auxiliary shaft drives the detection wheel to rotate together. The rotational speed of the detection wheel is detected by the second rotational speed sensor to judge whether the rotational speed of the auxiliary shaft is reasonable and whether the engine is working properly. The driven wheel and the detection wheel are respectively located on both sides of the support wall, and the inner ends of the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are respectively located on both sides of the support wall. That is, the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are separated by the support wall, so that the detections of the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor will not be interfered by other rotating objects, making the sensor arrangement reasonable and improving the detection accuracy.
[0011] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, the box body and the support wall are of an integral structure. The integral structure is convenient for processing and has high firmness.
[0012] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, both the driven wheel and the detection wheel are located at the end of one end of the auxiliary shaft, and both the driven wheel and the detection wheel are arranged adjacent to the support wall. This structure makes the arrangement of the driven wheel and the detection wheel compact, occupying a small space, and the setting of this rotational speed detection mechanism does not affect the installation of other components in the box body.
[0013] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are arranged adjacent to each other, and both the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are located on the front side wall or the rear side wall of the box body.
[0014] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, a positioning portion protruding outward along the axial direction of the detection wheel is provided at the center on one side of the detection wheel. One end of the auxiliary shaft is hollow, and the positioning portion is partially embedded and positioned in one end of the auxiliary shaft, so that the detection wheel is coaxially arranged with the auxiliary shaft. This structure enables the setting of the detection wheel not to affect the installation of the gear ratios on the auxiliary shaft, and ensures the coaxiality of the detection wheel and the auxiliary shaft, improving the detection accuracy of the rotational speed detection mechanism.
[0015] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, there is a gap between the detection wheel and the support wall. The setting of the gap has two purposes. First, it avoids the interference of the support wall on the rotation of the detection wheel, improves the accuracy of the rotation of the detection wheel, and thus improves the detection accuracy of the rotational speed detection mechanism. Second, lubricating oil can enter between the support wall and the auxiliary shaft through this gap, enabling the smooth rotation of the auxiliary shaft and the detection wheel, improving the accuracy of the rotation of the detection wheel, and enhancing the detection accuracy of the rotational speed detection mechanism.
[0016] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, there is an annular retaining edge on the outer peripheral wall of the auxiliary shaft. A first gasket and a second gasket are also sleeved on the auxiliary shaft. One side of the driven wheel abuts against the annular retaining edge through the first gasket, and the other side of the driven wheel abuts against the support wall through the second gasket, axially positioning the driven wheel on the auxiliary shaft. A first bearing is provided between the driven wheel and the auxiliary shaft, enabling the driven wheel to be circumferentially rotatably sleeved on the auxiliary shaft. This structure axially positions the driven wheel and circumferentially rotatably sleeves it on the auxiliary shaft, with a simple and compact structure.
[0017] In the above-mentioned rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine, there is a second bearing between the auxiliary shaft and the support wall, and the second bearing is entirely located within the support wall. The setting of the second bearing enables the smooth rotation of the auxiliary shaft and the detection wheel.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the rotational speed detection mechanism of a motorcycle engine provided by the present invention has the following advantages:
[0019] 1. Through the arrangement of the driving wheel and the driven wheel, this rotational speed detection mechanism transfers the rotational speed state of the main shaft from the center of the engine block to the side of the engine block. After the engine is installed in the motorcycle, the position of the first rotational speed sensor is located outside the motorcycle, enabling the operator to directly disassemble and assemble the first rotational speed sensor, making rational use of space, arranging the sensors reasonably, and facilitating the maintenance of the sensors.
[0020] 2. The driven wheel and the detection wheel of this rotational speed detection mechanism are respectively located on both sides of the support wall, and the inner ends of the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are respectively located on both sides of the support wall. That is, the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor are separated by the support wall, preventing the detections of the first rotational speed sensor and the second rotational speed sensor from being interfered by other rotating objects, arranging the sensors reasonably, and improving the detection accuracy.
