[0002] In the assembly structure of a motorcycle engine, the cylinder head needs to be equipped with camshafts, rocker shafts, rocker arms, intake valves, exhaust valves and other parts. Among them, the valve clearance between the rocker arm and the intake valve and exhaust valve needs to be adjusted with valve adjusting gaskets. That is, by selecting valve adjusting gaskets of appropriate thickness, the rocker arm and the intake valve or exhaust valve maintain an effective valve clearance, ensuring that the intake valve and exhaust valve can accurately and stably perform opening and closing actions when the engine is operating normally.
[0003] However, when selecting valve adjustment gaskets, the adjustment gaskets are first installed on the intake and exhaust valves, and then the rocker arms and rocker arm shafts are assembled, and finally the valve clearance is measured. If the valve clearance is not appropriate, the assembled rocker arms and rocker arm shafts need to be removed, and the valve adjustment gaskets need to be re-selected, which is inefficient. Summary of the invention:
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an adjustment structure for the valve clearance of an engine, which adopts a structure in which a rocker arm slides axially on a rocker arm shaft, so that the rocker arm can be misaligned left and right with the corresponding intake and exhaust valves, so as to facilitate the replacement and measurement of the valve adjustment gasket, and after the valve adjustment gasket is selected and matched, the rocker arm is axially fixed with the help of a limit block, thereby effectively improving the assembly efficiency of the cylinder head.

[0006] The adjustment structure of the engine valve clearance includes a cylinder head and an intake and exhaust valve arranged on the cylinder head. The cylinder head is equipped with a rocker shaft. A rocker arm whose outer end cooperates with the intake and exhaust valves is rotatably connected to the rocker shaft. The rocker shaft is provided with an axial sliding stroke along its axial direction. The rocker arm slides on the axial sliding stroke, and the rocker arm slides along the axial sliding stroke and can be misaligned with the corresponding intake and exhaust valves to the left and right. A detachable limit block is provided on the axial sliding stroke, and a limit space for axially fixing the rocker arm is formed between the limit block and the axial sliding stroke.
[0007] In the above-mentioned engine valve clearance adjustment structure, an assembly through hole is provided on the limit block, and an assembly screw hole corresponding to the position of the assembly through hole is provided on the rocker arm shaft located on the axial sliding stroke, and the tail end of the fastening screw passes through the assembly through hole and is screwed on the assembly screw hole to realize a detachable connection between the limit block and the rocker arm shaft.
[0008] In the above-mentioned engine valve clearance adjustment structure, the corresponding end surface of the limit block is provided with an arc-shaped opening groove that fits on the outer wall surface of the rocker arm shaft, and the arc surface angle of the arc-shaped opening groove is less than or equal to 90°.
[0009] In the above-mentioned engine valve clearance adjustment structure, two bearing seats are arranged at intervals on the left and right sides of the cylinder head, the two ends of the rocker arm shaft are respectively connected to the two bearing seats, and the rocker arm shaft located between the two bearing seats forms the axial sliding stroke, and the limit space is formed between the limit block and one of the bearing seats.
