[0002] Generally, the lubrication method for gears and splines in the engine flywheel housing adopts splash lubrication. This lubrication method is an automatic lubrication formed by using the rotation of rotating parts in a closed space at a relatively high speed to splash and atomize lubricating oil into small droplets and bring them to the friction pair. This method has a simple structure, but the lubrication effect is poor. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] Aiming at the above deficiencies, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is: to provide a diesel engine and a spline lubrication device with good lubrication effect for the spline connecting the pump shaft of the hydraulic pump and the air compressor gear.

The oil outlet of the oil injection device faces the end face of the internal spline sleeve. The oil inlet of the oil injection device is connected to a lubricating oil pipe.

[0006] Preferably, the oil injection device is an atomizing oil injection device.

[0016] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:

[0024] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model more clear and understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0025] Embodiment 1

[0026] As Figures 1-4 collectively shown, a spline lubrication device includes: a flywheel housing 1, a hydraulic pump 2 and an air compressor 3. The pump shaft of the hydraulic pump 2 extends into the flywheel housing 1. An external spline 21 is provided at the end of the pump shaft. An air compressor gear 31 of the air compressor 3 is arranged in the flywheel housing 1. The air compressor gear 31 is connected with an internal spline sleeve 61. The internal spline sleeve 61 and the external spline 21 are connected. An oil injection device 4 is provided on the flywheel housing 1. The oil outlet 43 of the oil injection device 4 faces the end face of the internal spline sleeve 61. The oil inlet 42 of the oil injection device 4 is connected with a lubricating oil pipe 5.

[0027] Since the oil injection device 4 faces the end face of the internal spline sleeve 61, the oil injection device 4 sprays lubricating oil near the spline engagement, and forcibly lubricates the splines. Compared with splash lubrication, this forced lubrication method can better make the lubricating oil adhere to the splines, so that the splines are well lubricated.

[0028] To further improve the lubrication effect, in this embodiment, the oil injection device 4 is preferably an atomizing oil injection device.

[0029] As Figure 4 shown, the atomizing oil injection device includes a spray body 41 fixed on the flywheel housing 1. The oil inlet 42 and the oil outlet 43 are both arranged on the spray body 41. The spray body 41 is also provided with atomizing holes 44 communicating between the oil inlet 42 and the oil outlet 43. The high-speed lubricating oil in the lubricating oil pipe 5 flows into the atomizing holes 44 after passing through the oil inlet 42. Since the atomizing holes 44 are fine holes with a very small diameter, the lubricating oil is converted into a mist. The mist-like lubricating oil is sprayed out through the oil outlet 43 towards the end face of the internal spline sleeve 61.

[0030] A plurality of oil inlets 42 are arranged along the circumferential direction. One end of the lubricating oil pipe 5 connected to the spray body 41 is provided with a quick connector 51. The quick connector 51 is provided with an annular groove 52. The annular groove 52 is respectively communicated with the lubricating oil pipe 5 and the oil inlet 42. The lubricating oil in the lubricating oil pipe 5 first fills into the annular groove 52, and then the lubricating oil in the annular groove 52 enters the spray body 41 through the plurality of oil inlets 42.

[0031] To facilitate the installation of the spray body 41, in this embodiment, the spray body 41 is preferably a hollow bolt. The hollow bolt is threadedly connected to the flywheel housing 1. The oil inlet 42 is arranged along the radial direction of the hollow bolt. The oil outlet 43 and the atomizing holes 44 are arranged along the axial direction of the hollow bolt. In other embodiments, the spray body 41 can be installed on the flywheel housing 1 by welding or bolt connection.

[0032] The quick connector 51 is sleeved on the rod part of the hollow bolt and fixed on the flywheel housing 1 through the head of the hollow bolt. After the hollow bolt is tightened, the head of the hollow bolt tightly presses on the quick connector 51. The hollow bolt not only plays a role in fixing the quick connector 51, but also plays a role in atomizing fuel injection, organically combining two different functions together.

[0033] To prevent oil leakage, sealing gaskets 45 are respectively provided between the quick connector 51 and the flywheel housing 1 and the head of the hollow bolt.

[0034] Preferably, the lubricating oil pipe 5 is connected to the air compressor 3 to draw oil from the air compressor 3.

[0035] As Figure 5 shown, the internal spline sleeve 61 is sleeved on the spline flange 6, and the spline flange 6 is fixed on the air compressor gear 31.
