Figure 3 A structural schematic diagram of an engine from another perspective provided for an embodiment of the present application. This embodiment discloses an engine, which includes a body 1, an oil pump and an oil filter 2. The body 1 is provided with an oil storage chamber and a main oil channel, and the oil storage chamber is used to store oil (the oil can be lubricating oil). The main oil channel is connected to the oil storage chamber. At least one interface is provided on each side of the body 1, and the interface is connected to the main oil channel. The oil pump is connected to the main oil channel, and is used to transport the oil in the oil storage chamber from the main oil channel to the component to be cooled. The oil filter 2 is detachably connected to the interface, and is used to filter the oil in the oil storage chamber to filter most of the impurities in the oil, ensure the cleanliness of the oil, and extend the service life of the engine. Among them, the components to be cooled include crankshaft journals, camshaft journals, piston rings, timing gear pairs and other components.

[0031] In this embodiment, the interface includes a first interface 110 and a second interface 120a. The first interface 110 is arranged on one side of the main body 1, and the second interface 120a is arranged on the other side of the main body 1, so that the oil filter 2 can be installed on the first interface 110 or the second interface 120a according to different vehicle models, so as to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the oil filter 2. It can be understood that in other embodiments, two or more interfaces can be respectively provided on both sides of the main body 1.

[0032] In this embodiment, at least one interface is respectively provided on both sides of the main body 1, and the oil filter 2 is detachably connected to the interface. When the engine is installed on the vehicle, the oil filter 2 can be installed on the interfaces on different sides of the main body 1 according to different vehicle models, thereby facilitating the replacement of the oil filter 2 and improving the adaptability of the engine. By sharing the same cylinder block 11, the number of parts developed and manufactured is reduced, thereby reducing costs.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the main body 1 includes an oil pan, a cylinder body 11, a cylinder head, a cylinder head cover and a timing cover 12. The oil pan is connected to the bottom of the cylinder body 11, and the oil pan is provided with an oil storage chamber. The cylinder head cover is provided on the cylinder body 11. The cylinder head cover is provided on the cylinder head, and is used to seal the cylinder head to isolate the oil from the air, avoid oil oxidation and contamination, maintain the purity of the oil, and isolate external pollutants such as dirt and moisture, thereby extending the service life of the engine and ensuring the smooth operation of the engine. The timing cover 12 is connected to the side of the cylinder body 11, and the timing cover 12 is connected to the side of the oil pan. The timing cover 12 is used to isolate other parts from the timing system in the engine transmission device to prevent the timing system from being contaminated by debris such as oil, water, and mud. By sealing the engine timing system with the front end of the cylinder body 11, it also prevents the impact of other foreign objects, which also plays a positive role in reducing the noise of the engine. The main oil passage includes a first main oil passage and a second main oil passage 120.

The oil filter 2 is connected to the oil cooler 3, and the oil filter 2 is connected to the second oil inlet.

[0037] In this embodiment, the oil cooler 3 and the oil filter 2 are integrated into one body, which saves the installation space of the engine and facilitates the layout of the engine.

[0038] The engine further includes a first valve and a second valve, wherein the first valve is connected to the first main oil passage and the oil pump, respectively, and is used to control the connection and disconnection between the first main oil passage and the oil pump. The second valve is connected to the second main oil passage 120 and the oil pump, respectively, and is used to control the connection and disconnection between the second main oil passage 120 and the oil pump.

[0039] When the oil filter 2 is connected to the first main oil channel, the first valve is opened and the second valve is closed, so that the oil pump transports the oil in the oil storage chamber from the first main oil channel to the component to be cooled; when the oil filter 2 is connected to the second main oil channel 120, the first valve is closed and the second valve is opened, so that the oil pump transports the oil in the oil storage chamber from the second main oil channel 120 to the component to be cooled.

[0040] The engine also includes a filter, which is arranged at the input end of the oil pump and is used to filter impurities in the oil in the liquid storage chamber to prevent the impurities from being sucked into the oil pump and affecting the normal operation of the oil pump.

When installing the engine, there is no need to install the oil filter 2 on different interfaces according to different vehicle models, thereby improving the efficiency of installing the engine.

[0042] In a specific application scenario, when the engine is installed on the chassis of the vehicle, the crankshaft drives the oil pump to rotate during operation, and the oil in the oil pan is transported to the oil filter 2 for filtration through the oil pump, and then cooled by the oil cooler 3, and then output from various oil channels to lubricate the main journal, connecting rod journal, cam journal, rocker arm and other components, and the lubricated oil flows back to the oil pan;

[0043] When the engine is installed on the upper part of the vehicle, during operation, the crankshaft drives the oil pump to rotate, and the oil pump transports the oil in the oil pan from the oil inlet channel of the second main oil gallery 120 to the oil filter 2 for filtration, and then after being cooled by the oil cooler 3, it is transported from the oil outlet channel of the second main oil gallery 120 to various oil channels to lubricate components such as the main journal, connecting rod journal, cam journal and rocker arm, and the lubricated oil then flows back to the oil pan.
