Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of engine parts, in particular to an engine elastic flywheel. Background Art

[0002] The engine is a device that provides power for power equipment and is the heart of the power equipment. During the operation of the engine, the engine mixes air and fuel in a certain proportion, and draws the mixed gas into the cylinder during the intake stroke. The mixed gas is compressed, ignited and burned to generate heat energy. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas acts on the top of the piston to push the piston to move, thereby achieving work. The engine output mechanism is formed through the built-in connecting rod, crankshaft, and rotor mechanisms, and mechanical energy is output to the outside through the engine output mechanism. It is connected to the input mechanism of the power equipment through rotation to drive the power equipment to operate.

[0003] In the related technology, during the operation of the engine, the power equipment and the engine are directly rigidly connected, and the rotational inertia of the power equipment is directly attached to the engine's shaft system, which is inconsistent with the original torsional vibration parameters of the engine. The torsional vibration amplitude increases, resulting in an increase in the probability of crankshaft breakage, shock absorber failure due to excessive temperature, and other faults. There is also the possibility of severe impact on the engine due to sudden load changes. The possibility of engine failure is relatively high, and the engine reliability needs to be improved.

A plurality of signal teeth 37 are integrally fixedly provided on the edge of the elastic plate 3, and connecting rivets 36 are provided between the elastic plates 3. The connecting rivets 36 penetrate all the elastic plates 3 and connect all the elastic plates 3 together. The elastic plates 3 are provided between the flywheel and the connecting bolts 4. A first hole 33 is provided through the center of the elastic plate 3, and a plurality of second holes 34 are provided through the elastic plate 3. The second holes 34 are provided around the first hole 33. The first hole 33 and the second hole 34 can be penetrated by bolts or screws on the input mechanism of the power equipment, so as to connect the elastic plate 3 and the input mechanism of the power equipment. The flywheel gear ring 1 is connected to the output mechanism of the engine by meshing. The elastic plate 3 is provided with radial tie bars 31 and buffer springs 32 fixed in an integrated manner along the radial direction. The radial tie bars 31 and buffer springs 32 are alternately arranged, and the buffer springs 32 are plane spiral springs. The engine output mechanism drives the flywheel gear ring 1 to rotate and drives the power equipment input mechanism to rotate through the elastic plate 3 to drive the power equipment to operate. In this process, the radial tie bars 31 play a radial positioning role, and the buffer springs 32 play a circumferential torsional buffering role, which greatly reduces the influence of the moment of inertia on the torsional vibration of the engine. The buffering effect of the elastic plate 3 keeps the torsional vibration of the engine crankshaft within a safe range, thereby reducing the probability of engine damage and improving the reliability of the engine.

[0032] To improve the stability of the connection with the power equipment input mechanism, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3, a first cover plate 12 is adapted and inserted in the first inner hole 11, a second cover plate 22 is adapted and inserted in the second inner hole 21, and the elastic plate 3 is arranged between the first cover plate 12 and the second cover plate 22. The first cover plate 12 is provided with a first gasket 121, which is arranged between the first cover plate 12 and the elastic plate 3, and the second cover plate 22 is provided with a second gasket 221, which is arranged between the second cover plate 22 and the elastic plate 3.

The first cover plate 12, the second cover plate 22, the first gasket 121 and the second gasket 221 are all penetrated by a plurality of third holes 35 for inserting the plug rods of the power equipment input mechanism, and the third holes 35 penetrate the elastic plate 3 and are arranged around the second holes 34. The second hole 34 and the first hole 33 on the elastic plate 3 penetrate the first gasket 121, and the first cover plate 12, the second gasket 221 and the second cover plate 22 are all penetrated with a connecting hole 222 connected with the first hole 33 and the second hole 34. The side wall of the flywheel 2 away from the elastic plate 3 is provided with an annular clearance groove 23, and the bottom wall of the clearance groove 23 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 231. An annular fixed block is rotatably provided on the housing of the power device, and the fixed block is inserted into the clearance groove 23 and is limited by inserting the plug rod on the fixed block into the positioning hole 231. At the same time, the input mechanism rotatably provided on the power device passes through the first hole 33, the second hole 34 and the third hole 35 through the plug rod, thereby connecting with the elastic plate 3, the first cover plate 12 and the second cover plate 22, etc., so as to improve the stability of the connection between the power device and the elastic plate 3.

[0033] The implementation principle of an engine elastic flywheel in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the flywheel gear ring 1 is set on the engine when rotating, and meshes with the gear of the engine output mechanism through the gear block, and at the same time, the power equipment housing is connected to the flywheel disc 2 through the fixed block that is rotated and inserted into the clearance groove 23 and the plug rod on the fixed block is inserted into the positioning hole 231 to limit the horizontal position, and at the same time, the plug rod on the power equipment input mechanism is inserted into the first hole 33, the second hole 34 and the third hole 35 to connect with the elastic plate 3. When the engine is started, the flywheel gear ring 1 is driven to rotate through the output device, thereby driving the elastic plate 3 to rotate, and the elastic plate 3 drives the power equipment input mechanism to rotate, thereby driving the power equipment to operate. In this process, the radial pull bar 31 on the elastic plate 3 plays a radial positioning role, and the buffer spring 32 plays a circumferential torsion buffering role, thereby playing a buffering effect, greatly reducing the influence of the rotational inertia on the torsional vibration of the engine, so that the torsional vibration of the engine crankshaft is maintained within a safe range, thereby reducing the probability of engine damage and improving the reliability of the engine.

[0034] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
