[0069] like Figure 1-8 As shown, Figure 1 A left side view of an engine provided by an embodiment of the present invention;
[0070] This embodiment provides an engine, which includes:
[0071] A cylinder body 310, wherein the cylinder body 310 has a cooling channel;
[0072] A cylinder head 110, wherein the cylinder head 110 has a cooling channel;
[0073] Box 320;
[0074] A clutch 330, wherein the clutch 330 is installed in the housing 320;
[0075] A crankshaft 410, wherein the crankshaft 410 is installed in the housing 320;
[0076] A balancing shaft 420, wherein the balancing shaft 420 is installed in the box body 320;
[0077] A water pump driving gear 112, wherein the water pump driving gear 112 is installed in the box body 420;
[0078] A main shaft 610, wherein the main shaft 610 is installed in the box body 320;
[0079] left cover 130;
[0080] A water pump cover 131, wherein the water pump cover 131 is mounted on the left cover 130;
[0081] A water pump 110, wherein a water pump driven gear 111 is provided in the water pump 110, the water pump 110 is communicated with the cooling channel, the water pump 110 is located in front of the axis of the cylinder body 310, and the water pump 110 is located on the right side of the axis of the cylinder body 310; the water pump 110 is installed in the left cover 130;
[0082] Water inlet pipe 181;
[0083] Water outlet pipe 182;
[0084] Connecting pipe 183;
[0085] A radiator 180, the radiator 180 is located in front of the axis of the cylinder body 100, and the radiator 180 is connected to the water pump 110 through the water inlet pipe 181;
[0086] and a thermostat 190 , wherein the thermostat 190 is located at the rear side of the axis of the cylinder block 310 , the thermostat 190 is connected to the radiator 180 through the water outlet pipe 182 , and the thermostat 190 is connected to the cylinder head 110 through the connecting pipe 183 .
[0087] In the engine of this embodiment, the water pump 110 and the radiator 180 are both located in front of the axis of the cylinder block 310, so that the distance between the two major performance components, the water pump 110 and the thermostat 190, and the radiator 180 is reduced, which is extremely beneficial to shorten the total length of the external pipeline and the total length of the cooling channel, thereby reducing the time and fluid resistance for the coolant to flow from the water pump 110 to the required part of the cylinder block 310, improving the cooling efficiency of the cylinder block 310 and the cylinder head 110, and reducing mechanical losses. This effectively solves the technical problem in the related art that the total length of the water channel will increase due to the need for each channel to be connected around the periphery of the engine to cool the engine with the coolant passing through the channel, resulting in an increase in the time and fluid resistance for the coolant to flow from the water pump 110 to the required part of the cylinder block 310, affecting the reduction of cooling efficiency and the increase of mechanical losses.
[0088] In this embodiment, the motorcycle is forward in the forward direction; in the top view of the entire engine, due to the same-side distribution design of the water pump and the thermostat, the "external" waterless pipeline crosses the two sides of the engine and forms a "mouth"-shaped closed-loop water path through the connection with the water channel inside the engine.
[0089] The water pump 110 is connected to the coolant storage tank, and the power transmitted by the crankshaft drives the water pump 110 to work, so that the coolant flows out through the water pump 110 under pressure;
[0090] The cooling channel of the cylinder body 310 is built-in, which is mainly formed by the grooves opened inside the cylinder body 310. The coolant pressurized by the water pump 110 flows into the cooling channel of the cylinder body 310 directly through the built-in channel of the left cover, which makes the water pump 110 and the cylinder body 310 closer, thereby reducing the connecting pipe of the water pump 110, improving the transmission efficiency of the coolant, and avoiding the problem that the time and fluid resistance of the coolant to the required part will increase due to the connecting pipe between the water pump 200 and the cooling channel when the engine is started, and the coolant has not been delivered to the part of the engine that needs to be cooled, the cooling effect is not good, and the mechanical loss is increased. In addition, the dedicated connecting pipes directly between the water pump 200 and the cylinder body 310 are reduced, which is conducive to improving the compactness of the engine and the motorcycle. At the same time, due to the reduction in the length of the cooling channel, the total amount of coolant required by the engine is reduced, which is conducive to the lightweight of the whole machine.
[0091] The thermostat 190 is in communication with the cooling channel, and the liquid in the cooling channel is measured at a corresponding temperature by the thermostat 190 before entering the radiator 180;
[0092] The radiator 180 is used to dissipate heat from the coolant and is connected to the thermostat 190 . The coolant enters the radiator 180 to dissipate heat and cool down, and then returns to the water pump 110 for recycling.
[0093] The water pump 110 is located on the left side of the cylinder block 310, and the thermostat 190 is located on the rear side of the cylinder block 310. By arranging the water pump 110 and the thermostat 190 on the same side of the cylinder block 100, the compactness of the engine is improved on the one hand, and the heat dissipation performance of the engine is improved on the other hand.

[0095] The piston is disposed in the cylinder body 310 , and the water pump 110 is located at the left front part of the axis of the piston.
[0096] The piston is movably mounted in the cylinder body 310, and the water pump 110 is located in front of the axis of the piston, which can further reduce the distance between the two major performance components, the water pump 110 and the thermostat 190, and the radiator 180, which greatly shortens the total length of the external pipeline and greatly shortens the total length of the cooling channel.
[0097] In some embodiments of the present application, the engine further comprises:
[0098] A circulation pipeline 184 , one end of which is connected to the radiator 300 , and the other end of which is connected to the thermostat 190 . The circulation pipeline 184 is located on the left side of the axis of the cylinder block 100 .
[0099] The circulation line 184 is located on the left side of the axis of the cylinder body 310, which makes the engine more compact, improves the convenience of assembly and maintenance, and can effectively improve the compactness and lightness of the engine.
[0100] In some embodiments of the present application, on a vertical projection plane, the circulation pipeline 184 crosses the left side of the cylinder body 310 to form a closed-loop water circuit.
[0101] Among them, the closed-loop water circuit is in a shape similar to a "mouth"; the circulation pipeline 184 crosses the front and rear sides of the engine, which reduces the hidden dangers of pipeline interference and wear of the engine while further highlighting the mechanical beauty of the side of the engine.
[0102] In some embodiments of the present application, the engine further comprises:
[0103] A water inlet pipe 181 , wherein a first end of the water inlet pipe 181 is connected to the radiator 180 , and a second end of the water inlet pipe 181 is connected to the water pump cover 131 , wherein the water inlet pipe 181 is located at the front of the cylinder body 310 .
[0104] The water inlet pipe 181 is used to connect the water pump cover 131 and the radiator 180, and transport the coolant cooled in the radiator 180 to the water pump. The water inlet pipe 181 is arranged at the front part of the cylinder body 310, which can facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the water inlet pipe 181, thereby improving the convenience of assembly and maintenance, and at the same time can reasonably utilize the space of the engine, thereby improving the compactness of the engine.
[0105] In some embodiments of the present application, the engine further comprises:
[0106] A water outlet pipe 182 is connected to the radiator 180 and the thermostat 190 , wherein the water outlet pipe 182 is located at the right part of the cylinder body 310 .

At the same time, the water outlet pipe 182 is located at the rear right part of the cylinder body 310, which is convenient for replacing or repairing the water outlet pipe 182, and also convenient for repairing the radiator 180 or the water pump 110. It is convenient and quick, and at the same time, it can make reasonable use of the space of the engine, thereby improving the compactness of the engine.
[0108] In some embodiments of the present application, the engine further comprises:
[0109] A box body 320, wherein the box body 320 is connected to the cylinder body 310, and the water pump 110 is located on the left side of the box body 900;
[0110] A clutch, the clutch is installed in the box 320;
[0111] A crankshaft, the crankshaft is installed in the box 320;
[0112] and a water pump 110, wherein the water pump 110 and the clutch 330 are disposed on both sides of the engine, and the water pump 110 is located on the left side of the box 320;
[0113] The line connecting the center of the water pump 110 and the center of the clutch 330 is located above the central axis of the crankshaft.
[0114] In the engine of this embodiment, the water pump 110 is located at the left front part of the box body 320, so that the water pump 110 is high from the ground, reducing the probability of sand and stone impact, and can effectively avoid the problem that the water pump 110 is located on the windward side of riding and is at a low height from the ground, and is easily hit by sand and stones during riding, thereby damaging the water pump 110; at the same time, the water pump 110 is directly connected to the cooling water jacket of the cylinder body 310 through the internal water channel of the left cover, which greatly reduces the length of the water channel, is conducive to the compactness and lightweight of the engine, thereby avoiding the low position of the water pump 110 and the air The distance between the cylinder cooling water jacket is far, the cooling water inlet and outlet channels are short, the cooling efficiency is low and it is not conducive to the compact optimization of the whole machine; the position of the water pump 110 can be directly connected to the cylinder through the internal channel, and its position is high, so that the cooling passage connected to the water pump 110 is short, and the coolant can directly enter the periphery of the engine for cooling under the pressure of the water pump 110, effectively reducing the time required for the coolant to circulate in the cooling passage to each cooling area, and reducing the fluid resistance of the coolant and the mechanical loss of the engine. Wherein, the box body is a crankcase.
[0115] In the engine of this embodiment, the water pump 110 is located on the left side of the engine, the clutch 330 and the water pump 110 are located on the other side of the engine, and the line connecting the center of the water pump 110 and the center of the clutch 330 is located above the central axis of the crankshaft 410, so that the water pump 110 is high from the ground, reducing the probability of sand and stone impact, and can effectively avoid the problem that the water pump 200 is on the windward side of riding and is at a low height from the ground, and is easily hit by sand and stones during riding, thereby damaging the water pump 110; at the same time, the position of the water pump 110 can be directly connected to the cylinder body through an internal channel, reducing the length of the water channel, which is conducive to the compactness and lightweight of the engine, thereby avoiding the problem that the water pump 110 is located at a low position, far away from the cylinder cooling water jacket, short cooling water inlet and outlet channels, low cooling efficiency and is not conducive to compact optimization of the whole machine; The water pump 110 is located so that it can be directly connected to the cylinder block 310. Its position is relatively high, so that the cooling passage connected to the water pump 110 is relatively short. The coolant can directly enter the periphery of the engine for cooling under the pressure of the water pump 110, effectively reducing the time required for the coolant to circulate in the cooling passage to each cooling area, and reducing the fluid resistance of the coolant and the mechanical loss of the engine, thereby effectively solving the technical problem that the water pump 110 is arranged at the left rear lower part of the engine, the oil pump is driven by the main shaft 610, and the water pump 110 is coaxially arranged with the oil pump 110, resulting in a lower position of the water pump 110. The cooling pipeline connected to the water pump 110 needs to be connected along the entire periphery of the engine, resulting in an increase in the length of the cooling passage, an increase in the time and fluid resistance for the coolant to reach the required position, and an increase in mechanical loss.
[0116] In addition, the height of the water pump 110 is relatively high, so that the length of the cooling passage is relatively short, which is beneficial to improving the compactness of the engine and the motorcycle. At the same time, due to the reduction in the length of the cooling passage, the total amount of coolant required by the engine is reduced, which is beneficial to the lightweight of the entire machine.
[0117] In some embodiments of the present application, the difference between the distance between the center of the water pump 110 and the center of the crankshaft 410 and the distance between the center of the clutch 330 and the center of the crankshaft 410 is within a preset range, and the preset range is: Figure 5 As shown in , the distance between the center of the clutch 330 and the center of the crankshaft 410 is L, and the distance between the center of the water pump 200 and the center of the crankshaft 201 is M.
[0118] The distance between the center of the water pump 110 and the center of the crankshaft 410 is equivalent to the distance between the center of the clutch 330 and the center of the crankshaft 410, that is, the two distances are very close. The preset range is usually, and the threshold range represents the allowable error and the phase difference range that can be controlled to a certain extent, which is beneficial to the balance of the center of gravity of the whole machine and reduces the vibration of the engine.
