[0002] A manual transmission is a speed-changing device that is used to change the speed and torque transmitted from the engine to the drive wheels, allowing the vehicle to obtain different traction and speeds under various operating conditions such as starting from a standstill, climbing a hill, turning, and accelerating, while allowing the engine to operate within a more favorable operating range.
[0003] Off-road wide-body dump trucks equipped with manual transmissions mostly operate under heavy-load uphill conditions. When the heavy-load uphill conditions continue, especially when the ambient temperature is high in summer, the gear oil temperature inside the transmission will be too high.
[0004] Currently, most off-road wide-body dump trucks have manual transmissions and are not equipped with a transmission cooling system. Excessively high oil temperatures can cause the oil viscosity to decrease, exacerbating the friction and wear of internal gears. Excessively high oil temperatures can also cause aging of rubber seals and premature oil leakage.

[0008] Preferably, the heat exchanger and the filter are fixed to the manual transmission body via a heat exchanger bracket, and two water pipe clamps are installed on the top of the manual transmission.
[0009] Preferably, the water inlet pipe and the water return pipe both adopt a rubber hose plus a steel pipe structure, the heat exchanger water inlet and outlet interfaces use clamps to fix the L-shaped rubber hose, and the other end of the L-shaped rubber hose is connected to the water inlet pipe and the water return pipe using a clamp.

[0011] The utility model provides a manual transmission external cooling system structure. In order to prevent the oil temperature from being too high during the uphill loading process of a dump truck equipped with a manual transmission, a built-in oil pump is first installed inside the manual transmission, and the gear oil inside the manual transmission is sent to the filter through an oil inlet pipe and a connecting pipe. The hot oil filtered by the filter enters the interior of the heat exchanger. In this process, the engine water pump sends the coolant from the warm air return port through the water inlet pipe into the interior of the heat exchanger, and reduces the gear oil temperature by heat exchange. The gear oil then returns to the engine warm air inlet through the water return pipe, and circulates back and forth. The gear oil cooled by the heat exchanger returns to the interior of the manual transmission through the oil return pipe, and circulates back and forth. By adding an external cooling system, the gear oil temperature of the transmission is reduced by water cooling, and the manual transmission oil temperature can be kept below 100°C even when the ambient temperature is high, thereby improving the reliability of the manual transmission.

A built-in oil pump is installed inside the manual transmission 1 to deliver the internal gear oil of the manual transmission 1 to the inside of the filter 6 through the oil inlet pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 4.
[0023] The heat exchanger 11 and the filter 6 are fixed to the manual transmission 1 body through the heat exchanger 11 bracket, and two water pipe clamps 9 are installed on the top of the manual transmission 1;
[0024] The advantage of the external cooling system structure is that it does not use other space structures and can be arranged only on the gearbox.

[0027] The working principle of the manual transmission external cooling system structure provided by the utility model is as follows:
[0028] First, a built-in oil pump is installed inside the manual transmission 1, and the gear oil inside the manual transmission 1 is sent to the filter 6 through the oil inlet pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 4. The hot oil filtered by the filter 6 enters the heat exchanger 11.

Then, the gear oil returns to the engine warm air inlet through the return pipe 8, and the cycle is repeated. The gear oil cooled by the heat exchanger 11 returns to the manual transmission 1 through the return oil pipe 3, and the cycle is repeated.
[0029] Compared with the related art, the manual transmission external cooling system structure provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0030] In order to prevent the dump truck equipped with a manual transmission from having an oil temperature that is too high during the uphill load-carrying process, a built-in oil pump is first installed inside the manual transmission 1 to send the gear oil inside the manual transmission 1 to the filter 6 through the oil inlet pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 4. The hot oil filtered by the filter 6 enters the heat exchanger 11. During this process, the engine water pump sends the coolant from the warm air return port through the water inlet pipe 7 into the heat exchanger 11, and reduces the gear oil temperature by heat exchange. The coolant then returns to the engine warm air inlet through the water return pipe 8, and circulates back and forth. The gear oil cooled by the heat exchanger 11 returns to the manual transmission 1 through the oil return pipe 3, and circulates back and forth. This structure increases an external cooling system and uses water cooling to reduce the gear oil temperature of the transmission. Even when the ambient temperature is high, the oil temperature of the manual transmission 1 can be kept below 100°C, thereby improving the reliability of the manual transmission 1.

Based on the manual transmission external cooling system structure provided by the first embodiment of the present application, the second embodiment of the present application proposes another manual transmission external cooling system structure. The second embodiment is only a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the independent implementation of the first embodiment.
[0033] Specifically, the structure of the manual transmission external cooling system provided in the second embodiment of the present application is different in that the other end of the water inlet pipe 7 is installed with a second fixing pipe 15 through a flange 17 and a mounting bolt 16, and the other end of the second fixing pipe 15 is fixedly connected with a filter box 13;
[0034] One end of the second fixed pipe 15 also has a flange 17. The connection method of the water inlet pipe 7 and the second fixed pipe 15 is as shown in FIG. Figure 3 .
