Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of motorcycle engines. Background Art
[0002] At present, with the increasing development of motorcycles, motorcycles have developed into a kind of use involving entertainment and multi-functions in addition to commuting. Such vehicles have complex operating conditions. The complex driving conditions will cause the crankshaft speed to change sharply from high to low, which will cause additional inertia force of the valve mechanism. At this time, the valve spring needs to bear the inertia force of the normal operation of the valve mechanism and the additional sharply changing inertia force of the valve mechanism. In order to improve the safety of the valve mechanism, the valve needs to adopt a double spring mechanism, with a small spring inside and a large spring outside. Even if one spring breaks, the other can ensure the return of the valve, so as not to damage more engine parts or even cause the engine to jam. However, due to the small cylinder diameter of some engines, the combustion space should be used as much as possible for the intake valve to increase the diameter of the intake valve so as to increase the intake volume and increase the power. Therefore, the intake valve must be as close to the center of the combustion chamber as possible, so that the exhaust valve has to be farther away from the center of the combustion chamber, so the center distance between the two exhaust valves is smaller. If a sliding tappet mechanism is used, the double valve spring structure cannot be arranged due to insufficient space. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the problem of insufficient space, the exhaust valve adopts a small rocker arm mechanism. Since the small rocker arm does not require a sliding tappet, it can save space for the arrangement of the inner and outer double valve springs. On the other hand, the small rocker arm reduces the contact surface of the exhaust high-temperature cam, reduces the risk of wear, and extends the life of the cam.

[0080] An exhaust camshaft 310, wherein the exhaust camshaft 310 is disposed on an upper side of an exhaust camshaft hole of the cylinder head 200;
[0081] A box body 400, wherein the box body 400 is used to install the crankshaft 410 and the cylinder head 200;
[0082] A crankshaft 410, wherein a timing driving sprocket 411 is provided on the crankshaft 410;
[0083] Timing chain 510;
[0084] Timing chain guide bar 520;
[0085] Timing chain tensioner 530;
[0086] Timing chain tensioner 540;
[0087] In the engine of this embodiment, the crankshaft 410 is installed in the housing 400. When the crankshaft 410 rotates, the timing driving sprocket 411 provided thereon causes the timing chain 510 hung thereon to move, and the other end of the timing chain 510 links the intake camshaft 300 and the exhaust camshaft 310, so that the intake camshaft 300 and the exhaust camshaft 310 perform rotational motion in the camshaft hole of the cylinder head 200.
[0088] In the engine of this embodiment, the intake camshaft 300 is provided with a cam. When the intake camshaft 300 rotates, the valve tappet 290 is driven to move along the axial direction, thereby driving the valve clearance adjustment gasket 280 to move along the axial direction of the intake valve; the valve clearance adjustment gasket 280 pushes the intake valve 210 to move along the axial direction; as the intake camshaft 300 rotates, the intake valve 210 is reset by the valve inner spring 240, the valve outer spring 250, the valve spring upper seat 260 and the valve lock clamp 270. The intake valve 210 performs a reciprocating high-frequency motion during the rotation of the intake camshaft 300;
[0089] In the engine of this embodiment, the exhaust camshaft 310 is provided with a cam. When the exhaust camshaft 310 rotates, the finger-type small rocker arm 320 is driven to rotate with the finger-type rocker arm shaft 330, thereby driving the valve clearance adjustment gasket 280 to move along the axial direction of the exhaust valve; the valve clearance adjustment gasket 280 pushes the exhaust valve 220 to move along the axial direction; as the exhaust cam rotates, the exhaust valve 220 is reset by the valve inner spring 240, the valve outer spring 250, the valve spring upper seat 260 and the valve lock clamp 270.

[0090] In the engine of this embodiment, the timing chain 510 moves in a shape in which the timing chain guide bar 520, the timing chain tensioning bar 530, and the timing chain tensioner 540 are fixed.
[0091] In the engine of this embodiment, the valve tappet 290 structure is used on the intake side, and the finger-type small rocker arm 320 structure is used on the exhaust side. Because the engine of this embodiment requires the use of a dual valve spring structure on both the intake and exhaust sides, the intake side requires the performance of the engine, and the size space occupied by the intake valve 210 is sufficient to design a dual valve spring, and there is no situation where the size N is too small, so the valve tappet 290 structure can be used; and on the exhaust side, because the distance M between the two exhaust valves 220 is small, if the The valve tappet 290 structure will cause the dimension N to be too small, that is, it cannot withstand the supporting force of the exhaust camshaft and cannot form an oil film to protect the camshaft. Therefore, in order to ensure that the dimension N meets the design requirements, the finger-type small rocker arm 320 mechanism is adopted. This ensures that the dual valve spring structure continues to be used, thereby improving the reliability of the valve mechanism and ensuring the engine performance and design size requirements; similarly, on the intake valve side, the space occupied by the intake valve size is large enough, and there is no problem of the dimension N being too small, so the valve tappet 290 structure is used.
