[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which is a schematic structural diagram of the first seal provided by the embodiment of the present application. A power system includes an engine, a generator, and a first seal 10 disposed between the engine and the generator;
[0023] The engine has a first cavity for placing engine oil, and the generator has a second cavity for placing lubricating oil;
[0024] The first seal 10 includes a connecting plate 11, a first sealing layer, and a second sealing layer. One side of the first sealing layer is connected to the first side surface of the connecting plate 11, the other side of the first sealing layer is connected to the engine, one side of the second sealing layer is connected to the second side surface of the connecting plate 11, and the other side of the second sealing layer is connected to the generator. The first side surface and the second side surface are two opposite side surfaces.
[0025] It should be understood that the first sealing layer and the second sealing layer may be oily substances coated on the two opposite side surfaces of the connecting plate 11. In a specific implementation, there is an oil film controlled by the oil seal edge between the oil seal lip and the engine crankshaft. Under the action of the liquid surface tension, the stiffness of the oil film just forms a crescent surface at the end where the oil film contacts the air, preventing the leakage of the generator lubricating oil into the closed cavity, thereby achieving the sealing effect.
[0026] It should be noted that the engine crankshaft itself also has an oil seal, which is located at the connection position between the engine and the generator and is used to prevent the leakage of engine oil.
[0027] In the embodiment of the present application, the power system includes an engine, a generator, and a first seal 10 disposed between the engine and the generator; the engine has a first cavity for placing engine oil, and the generator has a second cavity for placing lubricating oil; the first seal 10 includes a connecting plate 11, a first sealing layer, and a second sealing layer. One side of the first sealing layer is connected to the first side of the connecting plate 11, the other side of the first sealing layer is connected to the engine, one side of the second sealing layer is connected to the second side of the connecting plate 11, and the other side of the second sealing layer is connected to the generator. The first side and the second side are two opposite sides. In this way, by providing the first seal 10 between the engine and the generator, the risk of engine oil leakage into the generator and mixing with the lubricating oil in the generator is reduced. Further, the service life of the power system can be extended.
[0028] Optionally, a first through hole 111 is provided on the connecting plate 11, and the crankshaft of the engine passes through the first through hole 111 and is connected to the generator.
[0029] Optionally, the power system further includes a clamping member 20 disposed on the connecting plate 11. The generator has a first groove with an opening facing the connecting plate 11, and the connecting plate 11 is disposed in the first groove through the clamping member 20.
[0030] In this embodiment, the connecting plate 11 can be connected to the generator through the clamping member 20, thereby improving the connection stability between the connecting plate 11 and the generator.
[0031] Optionally, the first groove is an annular groove, and the clamping member 20 is an annular structure provided on the connecting plate 11 from the second side towards the annular groove.
[0032] It should be understood that the annular structure surrounds the first through hole 111 and faces the annular groove on the generator. When the annular structure is located in the annular groove, the connecting plate 11 is connected to the generator.
[0033] Optionally, the power system further includes a second seal disposed between the second sealing layer and the generator, and the vertical projection area of the second seal on the connecting plate 11 is located outside the vertical projection area of the annular structure on the connecting plate 11.
[0034] It should be understood that by additionally providing a second seal, the sealing strength between the engine and the generator can be further improved.
[0035] Optionally, the second seal is made of a metal material.
[0036] In a specific implementation, since a second seal is additionally provided on the surface of the generator, the risk of leakage of the lubricating oil in the generator can be further reduced.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, the second seal can be a metal gasket.
[0038] Optionally, the generator has a first mounting hole, and the power system further includes a positioning post provided on the connecting plate 11, and the positioning post is adapted to the first mounting hole.
[0039] Optionally, the first mounting hole is a spiral hole, and a second through hole 112 is further provided on the connecting plate 11. The positioning post is formed by a bolt passing through the second through hole 112, and the bolt is adapted to the second through hole 112.
[0040] In this embodiment, by tightening the bolt, the connecting plate 11 is fixed to the generator.
[0041] An embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, and the vehicle includes the power system as described above. Since the technical solution of this embodiment includes all the technical solutions of the above embodiment, at least all the technical effects of the above embodiment can be achieved, and details are not described herein one by one.
