[0002] The single pump is still one of the mainstream technical routes of the current diesel fuel injection system, especially for marine or high-power diesel engines, each cylinder is matched with a single pump to supply fuel. The single pump itself does not contain a camshaft or a cam, and relies on the camshaft on the diesel engine to drive the plunger to complete the fuel pumping. During the factory test of the single pump, in order to simulate its working state on the diesel engine, a special cam box is generally used for testing. The cam box is usually installed on the test platform and connected and fastened by bolts. In order to facilitate hole processing, the connecting bolts are usually arranged on the bottom of both sides of the cam box along the axial direction of the camshaft.

[0062] S7, based on the finite element calculation result, the static strength reliability evaluation and the fatigue strength evaluation of the connecting bolt are carried out respectively.
[0063] In the present embodiment, the connecting bolt strength calculation method is applicable to the cam box 2 of a single pump 1. In marine diesel engines or high-power diesel engines, a single pump 1 is usually used for fuel supply due to the large amount of fuel required per cycle and the large cylinder center distance of the engine. The single pump 1 is usually not integrated with a cam 26 or a cam shaft 25, so the out-of-factory test of the single pump 1 needs to be carried out on a customized cam box 25. In order to input power to the cam box 25 to drive the single pump 1 to run, the above process is usually carried out on a test bench, at this time, the cam box 25 needs to be fixed on the test bench by connecting bolts.
[0064] In order to better understand the method, please refer to Figure 2 As shown in Figure 3 , the single pump 1 is installed on the cam box 2, and the single pump 1 mainly includes a plunger sleeve 11, a plunger 12, a plunger spring 13, a guide piston assembly 14 and other components, wherein the guide piston assembly 14 includes a roller pin 141 and a roller 142, the roller 142 is sleeved on the roller pin 141, the plunger 12 is installed in the middle hole of the plunger sleeve 11, and the two form a plunger cavity 101. The upper body 21 of the cam box and the lower body 22 of the cam box are connected by bolts, the top of the upper body 21 of the cam box is provided with an opening, and the mounting seat 30 is nested by the end and locked on the upper body 21 of the cam box by screws; in other possible embodiments, the upper body 21 of the cam box and the mounting seat 30 can be an integrated structure. The middle of the mounting seat 30 is provided with an opening for installing the single pump 1, and the single pump 1 and the mounting seat 30 are also pre-tightened by screws. The cam shaft 25 is installed in the cam box 2 through the bearings 23 arranged at the left and right ends of the cam box 2, the cam 26 is installed on the cam shaft 25, and there is no relative movement between the two, and in other embodiments, the two can be an integral whole. The end cover 24 is installed at the end of the cam box 2, which usually plays a role in dustproof and leakage prevention.
[0065] When the single pump 1 carries out the out-of-factory test, the cam box 2 is placed on the test bench, the motor drives the cam shaft 25 to rotate by using a clutch (not shown in the figure), and then drives the cam 26 to rotate, drives the roller 142 to drive the guide piston assembly 14 and the plunger 12 to move up and down, at this time, with the opening and closing of the oil outlet valve assembly and other valve components in the single pump 1, the fuel in the plunger cavity 101 is periodically compressed and pumped out, therefore, the pressure in the plunger cavity 101 presents a periodic change. During the test, the cam box 2 is filled with lubricating oil 27 for lubrication and heat dissipation of the cam 26 and the roller 142. During the whole test process, the cam box 2 body is fixed in the connecting bolt mounting hole 201 by connecting bolts. In order to facilitate processing and installation, the connecting bolt mounting hole 201 is generally arranged on the left and right sides of the cam box 2 and distributed in the front and back directions. Therefore, the safety of the connecting bolt is very important to ensure the smooth progress of the test, and then the specific description is as follows:
[0066] S1, according to the structure of the pump assembled in the cam box 2, at least a one-dimensional simulation model including the cam 26 and the unit pump 1 is built;
[0067] For the mechanical fuel injection system, the unit pump 1 is connected with the high-pressure oil pipe and the injector to realize the complete function, therefore, the one-dimensional simulation model needs to be built together with the structural parameters of the high-pressure oil pipe, the injector and the like. For the common rail type fuel injection system, the function of the unit pump 1 is only to supply fuel to the high-pressure accumulator chamber, therefore, the one-dimensional simulation model can be built only by using the structural parameters of the unit pump 1 itself. Since the unit pump 1 usually does not contain the cam 26, regardless of the fuel injection system, the structural parameters of the cam 26 in the cam box 2, mainly including the cam angle-lift data of the cam 26, need to be combined when the one-dimensional simulation modeling is performed.
[0068] The pump in the embodiment is a mechanical unit pump 1, and the one-dimensional simulation model is built by using the structural parameters of the plunger 12, the plunger sleeve 11, the plunger spring 13, the cam 26 and the like in combination with the structural parameters of the associated parts such as the high-pressure oil pipe and the injector.
[0069] S2, based on the one-dimensional simulation model, the plunger cavity 101 hydraulic pressure, the spring force of the plunger spring 13 and the inertial force of the moving part are respectively extracted and calculated, and the resultant force of the plunger cavity 101 hydraulic pressure, the spring force of the plunger spring 13 and the inertial force of the moving part is calculated;
[0070] Referring to Figure 4 , the resultant force and the plunger cavity 101 hydraulic pressure and the like are calculated by formula (1):
[0071]
[0072] Wherein, F h is the resultant force, N; F p is the plunger cavity 101 hydraulic pressure, N; F s is the spring force of the plunger spring 13, N; F g is the inertial force of the moving part, N; d is the diameter of the plunger 12, mm; P is the plunger cavity 101 pressure, MPa; F i is the spring force of the plunger spring 13 at the first load, N, which is usually directly given in the plunger spring 13 design drawing; k is the spring stiffness, N / mm, which can also be obtained based on the plunger spring 13 design drawing; H is the plunger lift, mm; m v is the mass of the moving part, kg, including the mass of the guide piston assembly 14, the plunger 12 and 1 / 3 of the mass of the plunger spring 13, which can be obtained based on the part drawing; a is the acceleration of the moving part, N / m 2Based on the one-dimensional simulation model calculation, the plunger cavity 101 pressure P corresponding to the cam 26 rotation angle and the plunger 12 lift H can be directly extracted; a can be obtained by differentiating the velocity of the moving part.
[0073] S3, based on the cam 26 rotation angle-lift data and the cam 26 geometric structure parameters, the pressure angle size is calculated;
[0074] Generally, when the cam 26 structure design is determined, the corresponding follower lift data of different cam 26 rotation angles can be directly obtained on the product design drawing of the cam 26, and the pressure angle size and variation law of the cam 26 driving roller 142 in the movement process are calculated by combining the geometric structure parameters of the cam 26.
[0075] Referring to Figure 4 , the pressure angle is calculated according to formula (2):
[0076]
[0077] In the above formula, a represents the pressure angle, °; s represents the lift of the roller, mm, which is a function of the cam 26 rotation angle θ; R b represents the base circle radius of the cam 26, mm; e represents the eccentricity between the rotation center of the cam 26 and the roller motion track, mm. s'(θ) represents the motion speed of the roller, mm / s.
[0078] Preferably, s'(θ) is calculated by using two-point central difference formula (formula (3)) or four-point central difference formula (formula (4)). The accuracy of formula (4) is higher than that of formula (3).
[0079]
[0080] Wherein, s(θ i ) is the roller lift under the current i-degree cam 26 rotation angle, and h is the step length between the i-degree and i-1-degree cam 26 rotation angles.
[0081] S4, based on the pressure angle and the resultant force, the contact force size and its component in the coordinate system are calculated;
[0082] Based on the existing pressure angle and resultant force data, the size and direction of the contact force F T between the cam 26 and the roller 142 can be calculated. The contact force F

[0085] In this embodiment, the camshaft 25 rotates clockwise when viewed from left to right during operation, see Figure 2 As shown, the axis direction of the camshaft 25 is the horizontal direction, which is the Z direction, and the vertical direction is the Y direction. At this time, the components of the X, Y, and Z axes are calculated by formula (6), where the subscript x(y, z) represents the component along the coordinate axis X(Y, Z). It should be noted that the orientation of the coordinate system will change the sign and direction of formula (6) to some extent.
[0086]
[0087] Preferably, at least two data points, the intersection of the resultant force growth segment and the pressure angle curve, and the maximum value point of the resultant force, are included in the calculation. The two data points need to be calculated separately and evaluated for strength reliability according to the subsequent steps.

[0091] S52: based on the ratio of the two and the contact force component calculation result in S4, the force component on the cam box bearing 23 is calculated.
[0092] Specifically, for the left end bearing, the force component is the contact force component in S4 multiplied by the coefficient k / 1+k; for the right end bearing, the force component is the contact force component in S4 multiplied by the coefficient 1 / 1+k. The direction is the same as that of the contact force component in S4.
[0093] S53: according to the contact force component calculation result in S4, the force size and direction on the hole in the mounting seat 30 are obtained.
[0094] S52 is performed after S51, and the steps of S53 have no sequence relationship with S51 and S52.
[0095] The force on the hole in the mounting seat 30 is equal in size to the contact force component calculated in S4, and opposite in direction.

[0099] Preferably, a beam element model is used to simulate the connecting bolt, and the cross-sectional size of the beam element is defined by the small diameter of the connecting bolt.
[0100] Preferably, a tie contact is used between the cam box upper body 21 and the cam box lower body 22, and between the mounting seat 30 and the cam box upper body 21.
[0101] Preferably, a mass point is set at the center of the top end of the mounting seat 30 and is given a mass equal to that of the single-body pump 11, and a mass point is set at the center of gravity of the cam box lower body 22 and is given a mass equal to the sum of the mass of the lubricating oil 27 and the masses of the cam shaft 25 and the cam 26.

[0103] S7, based on the finite element calculation result, static strength reliability evaluation and fatigue strength evaluation of the connecting bolt are respectively carried out.

[0113] It can be known from the embodiment that the connecting bolt strength is calculated and evaluated mainly by combining the one-dimensional simulation model and the finite element method, the one-dimensional simulation model is used to provide accurate load as input, the finite element method is used to more accurately consider the relative stiffness of the bolt and the box, the calculation and extraction of different types of stresses of the bolt set under the complex assembly structure are realized, the stress calculation accuracy of the connecting bolt is greatly improved, and the difficulty in calculation caused by unknown input parameters and complex structure or the large result error caused by oversimplification in the traditional calculation based on simplified formula is overcome.
[0114] In another embodiment, specific data are substituted for illustration, that is, the contact force size and its components in the coordinate system are calculated based on the pressure angle and the resultant force from S4:
[0115] Referring to Figure 4 , firstly, the resultant force and the pressure angle curve intersect at point A in the process of the resultant force increasing from small to large, the cam 26 angle at this time is θ1 and the pressure angle is α1; when the cam 26 angle is θ2, the pressure angle is α2, and the resultant force is the maximum value F hmax . This point is recorded as point B. Taking point B as an example, according to the maximum resultant force F hmax =251788N and the pressure angle α2=27.2° obtained after S1-S3 steps, the F T =283095N at point B is obtained, and further F Tx , F Ty , and FTz These are -129401N, -251788N, and 0, respectively. The negative sign indicates the negative direction along the current coordinate axis.
[0116] The same method was used to calculate the magnitude of the contact force at point A and its components in the coordinate system.
[0117] Secondly, S5, based on the magnitude of the contact force and the mounting position of the cam 26 in the cam box 2, solve for the force on the bearing and the force on the hole in the mounting seat 30:
[0118] Cam 26 is located in the center of bearing 23 (two bearings), meaning the distance from half the width of cam 26 to half the width of the left and right bearings is 1:1. Therefore, the force components on the left and right bearings are equal and half the contact force component in S4, which are -64700.5N, -125894N, and 0 (according to...). Figure 2 The X, Y, and Z directions in the coordinate system, where the negative sign indicates the negative direction of the coordinate axis (the same applies below);

[0121] Coordinate system orientation in finite element model Figure 2 With the coordinate system aligned, finite element modeling was performed using ANSYS software, focusing on the upper cam box 21, lower cam box 22, and mounting base 30. In this model, beam elements were used to simulate the connection between the connecting bolts and the countersunk portion of the bolt mounting hole 201 to the test bench. The test bench was modeled using a simplified approach. The beam element cross-sectional dimensions were set according to the designed bolt minor diameter of 14.37 mm. The upper body 21 and lower body 22 of the cam box are in bonded contact, as are the mounting base 30 and the upper body of the cam box 2. The force components applied at the bearing mounting hole of the lower body 22 of the cam box are -64700.5N, -125894N, and 0, respectively. The force components applied at the hole of the mounting base 3 are 129401N, 251788N, and 0, respectively. A mass point is set at the top center of the mounting base 30 and given a mass equal to that of the unit pump 1. A mass point is set at the center of gravity of the lower body 22 of the cam box and given a mass equal to the sum of the masses of the lubricating oil 27, camshaft 25, and cam 26. The sum of the masses of the upper body 21, lower body 22, mounting base 30, and the two mass points is 1200kg.
[0122] Finally, S7, based on the finite element calculation results, respectively, to carry out the static strength of the connecting bolt reliability assessment and fatigue strength assessment.
[0123] Step S71 can be extracted from Figure 7 With Figure 8 σ t2max = 236.99 MPa, σ b2max = 77.286 MPa, the equivalent stress σ eq = 389.273 MPa. According to the material of the connecting bolt, it is known that its yield strength R eL = 900 MPa, take the safety factor S s = 1.5, so the allowable stress [σ] is 600 MPa. Since σ eq = 389.273 MPa < [σ] = 600 MPa, so the static strength of the connecting bolt at this data point (see Figure 4 B point in the figure) is qualified.
[0124] Step S72 can be extracted from Figures 5 to 8 σ t1max = 207.39 MPa, σ b1max = 59.603 MPa, and the nominal diameter d of the connecting bolt is 16 mm, so σ a = 28.08 MPa < [σ a ] = 46 MPa, so the fatigue strength of the connecting bolt at this data point is qualified.
[0125] From the above specific examples, it can be seen that the strength of the connecting bolt of all data points in S4 is qualified, and it is considered that the strength of the connecting bolt meets the design requirements. The foregoing has calculated B point, and in this embodiment, the strength of the connecting bolt of A point is also calculated according to the steps of S4-S7 (the specific process is omitted), and the results show that the static strength and fatigue strength of the connecting bolt at A point are also qualified, so the strength of the connecting bolt used in the cam box 2 of the single pump 1 in this embodiment meets the requirements.
