A hollow valve head 3 is welded and connected to the bottom of the tappet 2. A head hollow groove 8 is provided in the valve head 3, and liquid sodium is stored in the hollow groove 8. A hollow groove 9 at the connection is located above the head hollow groove 8. A larger cavity volume can store more liquid sodium, thereby reducing the weight of the valve.

[0024] In this embodiment, a wavy micro-texture 5 is formed on the surface of the tappet 2 near the valve lock groove 4, and the wavy micro-texture 5 has a reasonable density.

[0025] In this embodiment, by adopting the above technical solution, the wear debris generated by the friction between the tappet 2 and the valve guide is stored together with the lubricant in the wavy micro-texture 5.

[0026] In this embodiment, the hollow groove 9 at the connection is located above the hollow groove 8 at the head, and this portion is equivalent to a portion of the hollow groove of the tappet 2 .

[0027] In this embodiment, by adopting the above technical solution, the hollow groove 9 at the connection expands the volume of the hollow groove 8, which reduces the weight and increases the fluidity and contact area, which is beneficial to heat dissipation.

[0028] In this embodiment, the surface of the valve head 3 is built-up with alloy.

[0029] In this embodiment, by adopting the above technical solution, the valve head 3 is built-up with alloy to improve the overall structural strength of the valve.

[0030] In summary, the lightweight and wear-resistant engine valve disclosed in the utility model comprises: a tappet head, a tappet and a valve head; the tappet has a valve lock groove at the upper end, and a wavy micro-texture is distributed on the surface of the tappet; the wavy micro-texture surrounds the tappet and is distributed longitudinally along the tappet part, the tappet is welded to the valve head with a hollow groove at the lower end at the tappet valve connection, the hollow part includes a hollow groove in the valve head and a hollow groove at the connection, and liquid sodium is contained in the valve head with the hollow groove;

[0031] The volume of the hollow groove is expanded by the hollow groove at the connection, which reduces the weight of the valve while increasing the fluidity and contact area, which is beneficial to heat dissipation; at the same time, the surface texturing reduces friction and wear and extends the service life; and solves the problem of the valve being not resistant to wear in the prior art and easily affecting the power and fuel consumption of the car.
