The prior art forms a seal in the axial direction between the clutch flywheel and the crankshaft and between the clutch flywheel and the crankcase body respectively, so as to isolate the lubricating oil in the crankcase body, which is beneficial to avoid the axial leakage of the lubricating oil in the crankcase body, and the clutch flywheel, which is sleeved on the crankshaft, passes through the crankcase body and performs axial limiting to realize the axial movement assembly of the dry clutch toward the axle seat side, which is beneficial to shorten the axial length of the crankshaft, and shorten the axial size of the engine, so as to make the structure of the engine more compact to avoid space waste.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned prior art solution realizes a compact engine structure, in actual operation, the dry clutch is prone to ablation or rapid wear, resulting in a high frequency of engine maintenance and high maintenance costs. In addition, its engine layout is different from the existing three-wheeled motorcycle power layout, so the three-wheeled motorcycle frame needs to be redesigned, affecting the adaptability of the engine.
