[0044] In this embodiment, when the engine is operating normally, the one-way valve assembly 8 maintains an open state of the passage between the one-way valve chamber 202 and the brake chamber 201; the engine oil in the cylinder enters the rocker shaft 3 through the first shaft oil passage 301, the first communication oil passage 206, the one-way valve chamber 202, and the fifth communication oil passage 210 and enters the one-way valve chamber 202. Part of the engine oil enters the second shaft oil passage 302 and the second communication oil passage 207 and then enters the reset chamber 203, and then enters the second sub-chamber 205 through the third communication oil passage 208, and the oil plays a lubricating role. The brake assembly 7 is always in contact with the exhaust valve pin 20, and the reset assembly 9 is in contact with the top of the reset chamber 203. When the cam rotates until the braking protrusion contacts the roller 4, since there is a first set clearance reserved between the exhaust assembly 6 and the stopper 213, and the lift generated by the braking protrusion is not sufficient to eliminate the first set clearance, the exhaust assembly 6 does not push the exhaust valve bridge 10 to move, and the exhaust valve cannot be opened to achieve the exhaust function. The one-way valve assembly 8 is in the open state. Therefore, when the brake assembly 7 is subjected to the acting force of the exhaust valve pin 20, the oil in the one-way valve flows back along the fourth communication oil passage 209, the first communication oil passage 206, and the first shaft oil passage 301. The brake chamber 201 cannot form a sealed chamber, and the brake assembly 7 cannot push the exhaust valve pin 20 to open the exhaust valve. At the same time, due to the acting force of the exhaust valve pin 20, the returned engine oil has a relatively high oil pressure. After the engine oil with a relatively high pressure flows back into the lubricating groove 212 between the rocker shaft 3 and the rocker 2, the lubricating effect can be improved and the wear between the rocker shaft 3 and the shaft hole can be reduced.
[0045] When the cam rotates until the exhaust protrusion contacts the roller 4, at this time the valve lift is relatively large. After the exhaust assembly 6 makes up for the reserved first set clearance, there is still enough valve lift to cause the exhaust valve to act, so as to open the exhaust valve to achieve the normal exhaust action. The exhaust valve pin 20 moves along with the exhaust valve bridge 10, so that the brake assembly 7 is disengaged from the exhaust valve pin 20.
[0046] When the braking is activated, braking fluid (fluid meeting certain pressure requirements) is supplied to the second shaft oil passage 302. The braking fluid enters the reset cavity 203 through the second communication oil passage 207. The fluid can enter the check valve cavity 202 through the reset cavity 203, and then enter the braking cavity 201 through the fifth communication oil passage 210. The fluid enters the second sub-cavity 205 after entering the third communication oil passage 208 from the reset cavity 203. At this time, the check valve assembly 8 closes the passage between the check valve cavity 202 and the braking cavity 201. The braking cavity 201 forms a sealed cavity. When the cam rotates to the braking protrusion, since the oil in the braking cavity 201 cannot be discharged, a hydraulic tappet structure is formed with the braking assembly 7 to open the exhaust valve to achieve braking. In each braking cycle, when the rocker arm 2 rotates through a certain angle, the exhaust valve assembly 5 opens, so that a sealed cavity cannot be formed in the braking cavity 201 and the braking fails to achieve the reset function. During the reset process, due to the acting force of the exhaust valve pin 20 on the braking assembly 7, the oil pressure of the braking fluid in the braking cavity 201 increases. The braking fluid flows through the braking cavity 201, the fourth communication oil passage 209, the second sub-cavity 205, the third communication oil passage 208, and the reset cavity 203 in sequence. At this time, the reset assembly 9 exposes the oil drain hole, and the braking fluid drains to the outside from the oil drain hole. After the reset process is completed, the exhaust and oil inlet processes are carried out. During the oil inlet stage, the exhaust valve pin resets, the braking piston no longer moves, and the rocker arm swings upward continuously as the cam swings, increasing the volume of the volume cavity. At this time, the volume in the check valve cavity 202 increases and the oil pressure decreases, and the braking fluid enters the check valve cavity 202 again.
[0047] In this embodiment, during the oil inlet process, the braking assembly 7 moves downward to increase the volume of the braking cavity 201, so that the oil pressure in the sealed cavity is lower than the oil pressure in the oil passage, accelerating the oil inlet rate. Thus, the braking performance of the engine can be stable at high speeds, avoiding excessive cylinder pressure and extending the service life of the braking device.
[0048] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the blocking member 213 is an adjusting screw. The top of the adjusting screw is provided with an upper groove, and the bottom of the adjusting screw is provided with a lower groove.

[0049] The structure of the blocking member 213 in this embodiment is convenient for installation and fixation in the exhaust cavity, and it is also convenient for the plug to block the top of the first sub-cavity 204.

[0061] An electromagnetic valve can be provided on the rocker arm shaft 3 support, the rocker arm shaft 3 support is fixed to the cylinder block, and the electromagnetic valve controls the oil pressure entering the second shaft oil passage 302.
[0062] In some alternative solutions, the working process of the reset rocker arm braking device is as follows:
[0063] When the engine is operating normally, the one-way valve assembly 8 maintains an open state for the passage between the one-way valve chamber 202 and the brake chamber 201; the engine oil in the cylinder enters the rocker shaft 3 through the first shaft oil passage 301, the first communication oil passage 206, the one-way valve chamber 202, and the fifth communication oil passage 210 and enters the one-way valve chamber 202. Part of the engine oil will enter the second shaft oil passage 302 and the second communication oil passage 207 to enter the reset chamber 203, and then enter the second sub-chamber 205 through the third communication oil passage 208, and the oil plays a lubricating role. The brake piston 701 is always in contact with the exhaust valve pin 20 under the action of the brake spring 702, and the reset piston 901 is always in contact with the top of the reset chamber 203 under the action of the reset spring 902. At the same time, the rod portion of the reset piston 901 pushes open the one-way valve stopper 801, and the one-way valve assembly 8 is in an open state, that is, the passage between the one-way valve chamber 202 and the brake chamber 201 is opened. When the cam rotates until the brake projection contacts the roller 4, since there is a first set clearance reserved between the sliding pin 601 and the stopper 213 and the lift generated by the brake projection is not sufficient to eliminate the first set clearance, the sliding pin 601 cannot push the exhaust valve bridge 10 to open the exhaust valve to achieve the exhaust function. Since the one-way valve assembly 8 is in an open state, when the brake piston 701 is subjected to the force of the exhaust valve pin 20, the oil in the brake chamber 201 will flow back along the fifth communication oil passage 210, the one-way valve chamber 202, the communication chamber 211, the first communication oil passage 206, and the first shaft oil passage 301, and a sealed chamber cannot be formed. At this time, the exhaust valve will not open. At the same time, due to the force of the exhaust valve pin 20, the returned engine oil has a relatively high oil pressure. After the engine oil with a relatively high pressure flows back into the lubrication groove 212 between the rocker shaft 3 and the rocker 2, the lubrication effect can be improved and the wear between the rocker shaft 3 and the shaft hole can be reduced. When the cam rotates until the exhaust projection contacts the roller 4, at this time the valve lift is relatively large. After the sliding pin 601 makes up for the reserved first set clearance, there is still enough valve lift to make the exhaust valve act, so as to open the exhaust valve to achieve the normal exhaust action, and the brake piston 701 will be limited by the brake snap ring 703 and separated from the exhaust valve pin 20.
[0064] When the braking is activated, under the action of the solenoid valve, the braking oil enters the second shaft oil passage 302, the second communication oil passage 207, the reset chamber 203, the third communication oil passage 208 and the second sub-chamber 205; the braking oil can enter the one-way valve chamber 202 from the reset chamber 203 and then enter the braking chamber 201 through the fifth communication oil passage; under the action of the braking oil, the reset piston 901 will displace downward by a certain distance, but due to the action of the reset spring 902, the reset piston 901 still blocks the oil drain port 215. At the same time, due to the downward movement of the reset piston 901 and under the action of the one-way valve spring 802, the one-way valve plug 801 closes the fifth communication oil passage 210. At this time, the braking chamber 201 forms a sealed chamber. When the cam rotates to the braking protrusion, since the oil in the braking chamber 201 cannot be discharged, a hydraulic tappet structure is formed with the braking piston 701 to open the exhaust valve to achieve braking. In each braking cycle, when the rocker arm 2 rotates through a certain angle (when the roller is at the highest point near the braking protrusion), the exhaust plug 501 will contact the push rod 504, and under the action of the valve spring force and the cylinder pressure, the exhaust plug 501 moves upward, so that a sealed chamber cannot be formed in the braking chamber 201 and the braking fails to achieve the reset function (during the oil inlet process, the exhaust plug 501 is in the state of closing the communication channel; during the exhaust process, the exhaust plug 501 opens the communication channel, but in the non-braking state, the one-way valve plug 801 is in the normally open state, so whether the exhaust plug 501 is open or not does not affect the overall function). During the reset process, due to the force of the exhaust valve on the braking piston 701, the oil pressure of the braking oil in the braking valve increases, and the braking oil flows through the braking chamber 201, the fourth communication oil passage 209, the first sub-chamber 204, the second sub-chamber 205, the third communication oil passage 208, and the reset chamber 203 in sequence. Since the oil pressure in the reset chamber 203 is relatively high at this time, the reset piston 901 moves downward again to expose the oil drain hole, and the braking oil drains to the outside from the oil drain hole. After the reset process ends, it enters the braking oil inlet stage. In the oil inlet stage, the braking piston 701 moves downward under the action of the braking spring 702. At this time, the volume in the braking chamber 201 increases and the oil pressure decreases, and the braking oil enters the braking chamber 201 again. After the solenoid valve is closed, the oil pressure in the reset chamber 203 decreases, and the reset piston 901 resets under the action of the reset spring 902. At this time, the engine resumes normal operation.
[0065] The reset rocker arm braking device provided by the embodiment of the present invention can improve the oil inlet rate, make the braking performance more stable, reduce the in-cylinder pressure during braking and improve the overall reliability. The slip pin spring 602 is integrated in the slip pin 601, which can reduce the wear of the roller 4; the first shaft oil passage 301 is connected to the lubricating oil groove at the bottom of the shaft hole. When the oil in the sealed chamber is compressed, the oil pressure in the oil inlet passage will increase, improving the lubrication effect.
