Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of engine water tanks, in particular to a water tank cover capable of adjusting pressure. Background Art
[0002] There are bubbles in the coolant in the engine water tank. Bubbles are the primary condition for cavitation. In order to separate bubbles from the coolant, the internal pressure of the system will be increased when designing the cooling system. At present, the water tank pressure cap is generally at a fixed pressure value of 0.7 / 0.9 / 1.02 / / 1.1bar. Generally, a 0.5bar pressure cap can meet the requirements in low altitude areas such as plains. However, when matching the pressure cap, a pressure cap with a slightly higher pressure will be used, such as a 0.7bar pressure cap. Some will use 0.9bar, which can meet the use requirements of most domestic roads. When the driver drives from a low altitude area to a high altitude area, in order to avoid cavitation and high temperature problems inside the engine due to too low internal pressure in the cooling system, the water tank cap with a higher opening pressure will be replaced before entering the high altitude area, according to the pressure correspondence. Then when the car travels from the plain area to the plateau area, the 0.7bar pressure cap cannot be required, and a higher pressure such as a 1.1bar pressure cap needs to be replaced. If a cap with a higher pressure is used from the beginning, it will affect the pressure inside the entire cooling system, resulting in reduced system reliability, bursting of water pipes during vehicle operation, difficulty in discharging gas in the cooling pipeline, water spraying under severe working conditions, etc., resulting in reduced vehicle reliability and increased operating costs. Therefore, it is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inconvenient for drivers to constantly replace the radiator cap as the regional environment changes.

[0019] The utility model is further described in detail below through the drawings and embodiments.
[0020] like Figure 1-3As shown: a water tank cover with adjustable pressure, including a cover body 1, a bracket 2, and a pressure valve 5, characterized in that: one end of a spring 4 is fixedly connected to the pressure valve 5, and the other end of the spring 4 is fixed to the lower side of the bracket 2, and a control displacement structure is provided on the bracket 2, and the control displacement structure includes a displacement block 7, a limit column 9, a rotating part 10, and a displacement column 15, and the displacement column 15 is fixedly connected to the bracket 2. When the external air pressure changes, the atmospheric sensor installed on the engine detects the change in the external air pressure, and then the data is transmitted to the automobile electronic control unit (ECU), and then the stepper motor 13 is controlled to drive according to the change in air pressure, driving the connecting column 11 to rotate, driving the rotating part 10 to rotate, and the limit column 9 rotates with the rotation of the rotating part 10, thereby driving the displacement block 7 to move up and down in the groove, and then driving the displacement column 15 to press the bracket 2 downward or lift the bracket 2 upward, so that the pressure on the spring 4 changes accordingly, thereby changing the opening pressure of the pressure valve 5.
[0021] Two support rods 14 are provided on the bracket 2, and grooves are opened relatively on the two support rods 14. The displacement block 7 is slidably connected with the groove, and the lower end of the displacement block 7 is fixedly connected with the shift column 15. When the displacement block 7 moves, it drives the shift column 15 to pressurize the bracket 2 to move the bracket 2 downward or drive the bracket 2 to be lifted and moved upward.
[0022] An empty slot 8 is provided on the rear side of the displacement block 7, a limit column 9 is fixedly connected in the empty slot 8, the limit column 9 is fixedly connected to the rotating member 10, the two springs 4 are located on both sides of the pressure valve 5, and the two springs 4 have the same size and mass, ensuring that the pressure valve 5 is subjected to uniform force.
[0023] A connecting column 11 is fixedly connected to the other side of the rotating member 10 opposite to the limiting column 9 . The connecting column 11 passes through the supporting plate 12 and is connected to the output end of the stepping motor 13 .
