Detailed implementation manners
[0025] The following combines the accompanying drawings and embodiments to further describe in detail the specific implementation manners of the present utility model. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present utility model, but are not used to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0026] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "top", "bottom", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
[0027] As Figures 1 to 6As shown in the figure, a crankcase cover of a preferred embodiment of the present utility model includes a cover body 1. A crankshaft hole 2 is provided on the cover body 1. An installation boss 3 for connecting and fixing with a muffler 34 extends upward from the top of the cover body 1. A bolt connection hole 4 is provided on the installation boss 3. An upright wall 5 protruding outward is provided on the upper part of the outer side surface of the cover body 1. A connection groove 6 for snap-fitting with the upper part of a fan cover 37 is provided at the top of the upright wall 5. A plurality of fixing holes 12 for fixing the cover body 1 on a crankcase body 24 are provided on the outer periphery of the cover body 1. A plurality of first reinforcing ribs 13 distributed in a divergent shape are provided on the outer side surface of the cover body 1 around the crankshaft hole 2. A positioning groove 7 for snap-fitting with the lower part of the fan cover 37 is provided on a first reinforcing rib 14 extending from the crankshaft hole 2 to the fixing hole 12 at the bottom in the cover body 1. The first reinforcing ribs 13 can strengthen the structural strength of the cover body 1. Since the first reinforcing ribs 13 are convex structures themselves, it is convenient to arrange the positioning groove 7 on the first reinforcing rib 14 extending from the crankshaft hole to the fixing hole at the bottom of the cover body, optimizing the layout of the structures on the cover body 1. A plurality of first reinforcing ribs 14 distributed in a divergent shape are provided on the outer side surface of the cover body 1 around the crankshaft hole 2. One end of the first reinforcing rib 14 is connected to the crankshaft hole 2, and the other end of the first reinforcing rib 14 is connected to one of the fixing holes 12. A first reinforcing ring rib 16 arranged coaxially with the crankshaft hole 2 is provided on the outer side surface of the cover body 1. The first reinforcing ring rib 16 is respectively connected to the middle parts of the first reinforcing ribs 14.
[0028] It can be seen that by designing the connection groove 6 for cooperating with the upper part of the fan cover 37 and the positioning groove 7 for cooperating with the lower part of the fan cover 37, the fan cover 37 is snap-fitted on the connection groove 6 and the positioning groove 7. The connection groove 6 can prevent the upper part of the fan cover 37 from deforming inward, and the positioning groove 7 can prevent the lower part of the fan cover 37 from deforming inward and outward, effectively avoiding the deformation of the fan cover 37 with a cylindrical thin-wall structure when it is installed on the crankcase cover, ensuring the cooling effect of the fan 36 on the crankcase. Moreover, the organic combination of the first reinforcing ribs 14 and the first reinforcing ring rib 16 can enhance the structural strength of the crankcase cover, avoid the deformation of the crankcase cover caused by the excessive weight of the magneto 35, improve the support for the crankshaft at the same time, reduce the deflection deformation, and reduce the whistling abnormal sound of the magneto 35.
[0029] Further, a rubber sleeve installation groove 8 for clamping the wiring harness rubber sleeve of the magneto 35 is formed in the vertical wall 5. A second reinforcing rib 9 is provided between the mounting boss 3 and the vertical wall 5. The second reinforcing rib 9 extends towards the side of the rubber sleeve installation groove 8. A first mounting hole position 10 for fastening the fan cover 37 is provided on the second reinforcing rib 9. The first mounting hole position 10 is arranged at one end of the second reinforcing rib 9 close to the vertical wall 5. A second mounting hole position 11 for fastening the fan cover 37 is provided at the lower part of the cover body 1. The second reinforcing rib 9 can enhance the structural strength between the mounting boss 3 and the vertical wall 5. At the same time, the first mounting hole position 10 is arranged close to the rubber sleeve installation groove 8, so that the bolt fastening point of the fan cover 37 is as close as possible to the rubber sleeve installation groove 8, which can increase the pressing force of the fan cover 37 on the wiring harness rubber sleeve of the magneto 35, ensure good fastening effect of the wiring harness rubber sleeve of the magneto 35, and prevent the wiring harness rubber sleeve of the magneto 35 from bulging or being displaced during actual use.
[0030] Exemplarily, a reinforcing connecting rib 32 is connected between the second reinforcing rib 9 and the vertical wall 5. The reinforcing connecting rib 32 is perpendicular to the second reinforcing rib 9, which can improve the structural rigidity between the second reinforcing rib 9 and the vertical wall 5.
[0031] Further, a reinforcing arc rib 15 is provided on the outer side surface of the cover body 1. The reinforcing arc rib 15 forms the side wall of the positioning groove 7 close to the crankshaft hole 2. Further, the shape of the reinforcing arc rib 15 matches the shape of the lower inner cavity wall of the fan cover 37. The reinforcing arc rib 15 can effectively support the lower inner cavity wall of the reinforcing arc rib 15 and the fan cover 37, and effectively prevent the fan cover 37 from deforming and affecting the cooling effect of the fan 36.
[0032] To further strengthen the structural strength of the crankcase cover, a trigger mounting hole 17 is provided on the inner side surface of the cover body 1.

One end of the fifth reinforcing rib 21 is connected to the crankshaft hole 2, and the other end of the fifth reinforcing rib 21 is connected to one of the fixing holes 12. Specifically, a second reinforcing ring rib 22 coaxial with the crankshaft hole 2 is provided on the inner side surface of the cover body 1. The second reinforcing ring rib 22 penetrates through the middle parts of the third reinforcing rib 18, the fourth reinforcing rib 20 and all the fifth reinforcing ribs 21.

A connecting ear 28 for connecting and fastening the rear fender 27 is provided on the upper end surface of the seventh reinforcing rib 25 extending towards the side of the rear fender 27; arranging the seventh reinforcing rib 25, the eighth reinforcing rib 26 and the second reinforcing rib 9 in a divergent manner between the mounting boss 3 and the vertical wall 5 can effectively improve the structural strength of the mounting boss 3 in the cover body 1, greatly reduce the deformation of the crankcase cover caused by the suspension of the muffler 34 on the crankcase cover, and further improve the sealing performance of the crankcase cover on the crankcase body 24 to prevent the leakage of crankcase oil; at the same time, a connecting ear 28 for connecting and fastening the rear fender 27 is provided by extending the seventh reinforcing rib 25, so that the manufacturing process of the connecting ear 28 is simpler, and the layout of the crankcase cover is more compact, which is beneficial to the miniaturization and lightweight of the crankcase. Moreover, the connecting ear 28 is provided on the seventh reinforcing rib 25, effectively improving the structural strength between the connecting ear 28 and the main body of the crankcase cover.
[0036] To further improve the supporting effect of the mounting boss 3 on the muffler 34, the extension line of the eighth reinforcing rib 26 passes through the center point of the bolt connection hole 4, and the eighth reinforcing rib 26 is perpendicular to the vertical wall 5, which can effectively increase the tensile strength of the mounting boss 3.
