All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0038] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, the gas engine transmission chamber cover assembly includes a transmission chamber 10 and a chamber cover 11 assembled outside the transmission chamber 10. A camshaft 12 is assembled in the transmission chamber 10; a camshaft gear 13 is assembled at the end of the camshaft 12. The transmission chamber 10 is formed within the engine body and is used to assemble the gear shaft and corresponding gears; the chamber cover 11 is used to seal the end of the transmission chamber 10.
[0039] A flange shaft 14 is assembled between the inner side of the chamber cover 11 and the end of the camshaft 12. The inner end of the flange shaft 14 is butted against the end of the camshaft 12; the flange shaft 14 supports the end of the camshaft 12. A clamping sleeve 15 is provided at the inner end of the flange shaft 14 for the insertion of the end of the camshaft 12. After the camshaft 12 is inserted, the axis of the camshaft 12 coincides with the axis of the flange shaft 14; a positioning pin 16 is used for butt joint and positioning between the end face of the camshaft 12 and the bottom of the clamping sleeve 15 of the flange shaft 14 to ensure stable assembly and accuracy between the two. Among them, the end face of the camshaft 12 fits with the inner bottom surface of the clamping sleeve 15.
[0040] And a bearing seat 17 assembled on the chamber cover 11. A camshaft bushing 18 is assembled in the bearing seat 17. The outer end of the flange shaft 14 is assembled in the camshaft bushing 18; an assembly through hole 19 for the bearing seat 17 to be inserted is provided on the chamber cover 11. The assembly through hole 19 communicates with the outside and the inside of the chamber cover 11. The inside of the bearing seat 17 is hollow. A connecting ring 20 for connection with the chamber cover 11 is formed at the edge of the bearing seat 17 on the outside of the chamber cover 11. The connecting ring 20 and the chamber cover 11 are fixedly connected by screws, so as to assemble the bearing seat 17 and the chamber cover 11. The inner end of the bearing seat 17 extends into the assembly through hole 19 and is butted against the flange shaft 14.
[0041] And an axial wheel 21 assembled on the bearing seat 17. The outer end of the flange shaft 14 extends into the axial wheel 21; an upper cover plate 22 for sealing the axial wheel 21 and the outer end of the flange shaft 14 is also assembled on the bearing seat 17 for protection and position constraint.
[0042] There are interconnected lubrication channels inside the camshaft 12 and inside the flange shaft 14. The lubrication channels are connected between the inner peripheral surface of the camshaft bushing 18 and the outer peripheral surface of the outer end of the flange shaft 14. The lubricating fluid in the transmission chamber 10 is drained through the lubrication channels so that it is drained between the camshaft bushing 18 and the flange shaft 14 to lubricate the rotating surface between the flange shaft 14 and the camshaft bushing 18.
[0043] In some embodiments, the lubrication channels include axial channels 23 arranged axially along the center line position of the camshaft 12 and the center line position of the flange shaft 14, and radial channels 24 that are connected to the axial channels 23 along the radial direction of the camshaft 12, the radial direction of the flange shaft 14; the radial channels of the flange shaft 14 are connected to the inner peripheral surface of the camshaft bushing 18 and the outer peripheral surface of the outer end of the flange shaft 14. That is, the lubricating fluid in the transmission chamber 10 is introduced into the axial channels through the radial channels on the camshaft 12, then flows through the axial channels of the flange shaft 14 to its radial channels, and finally flows to the inner peripheral surface of the camshaft bushing 18 to achieve lubrication.
[0044] In some embodiments, a positioning post 25 extending toward the inside of the upper cover plate 22 is fixedly provided in the center of the upper cover plate 22. A positioning hole 26 adapted to the positioning post 25 is provided on the outer end surface of the flange shaft 14, and the front end of the positioning post 25 extends into the positioning hole 26. After the positioning post 25 is inserted into the positioning hole 26, the axis of the positioning post 25 is collinear with the axis of the flange, thereby ensuring the stable assembly of the flange shaft 14. There is a certain rotational clearance between the outer wall of the front end of the positioning post 25 and the inner wall of the positioning hole 26.
[0045] In some embodiments, the lubrication channels are connected to the gap formed between the inner wall of the positioning hole 26 and the outer wall of the front end of the positioning post 25, so that the lubricating fluid can enter the gap for lubrication; in actual use, that is, an oil passage 27 smaller than the diameter of the axial channel 23 is axially opened at the bottom of the positioning hole 26, so that the lubricating fluid in the lubrication channels enters the positioning hole 26 through the oil passage 27 to achieve lubrication. The design of the small diameter of the oil passage 27 is to prevent too much lubricating fluid from flowing into the gap and finally accumulating in the space between the upper cover plate 22 and the axial wheel 21.
[0046] In some embodiments, the end of the bearing seat 17 close to the upper cover plate 22 has a first radial step surface 28 and a second radial step surface 29; the periphery of the inner side of the upper cover plate 22 is attached to the first radial step surface 28, and a thrust ring 30 is provided at the second radial step surface 29.

An axial pin 31 is assembled between the thrust ring 30 and the bearing seat 17 for restraint.
[0047] In some embodiments, a third radial step surface 32 is provided in the bearing housing 17 between the first radial step surface 28 and the second radial step surface 29. An annular extension sleeve 33 extends from the middle part of the inner side of the upper cover plate 22. A first seal 34 is arranged between the inner side surface of the upper cover plate 22, the outer peripheral surface of the extension sleeve 33, and the third radial step surface 32. The first seal 34 can be an O-ring seal to seal between the upper cover plate 22 and the bearing housing 17.
[0048] In some embodiments, the front end of the extension sleeve 33 extends into the bearing housing 17 to form a mounting hole section 35 between the second radial step surface 29 and the third radial step surface 32. The front end of the extension sleeve abuts against the outer side of the axial wheel 21 to constrain the axial wheel 21.
[0049] In some embodiments, the axial wheel 21, the flange shaft 14, and the camshaft 12 are connected by axially arranged connecting members 36; the connecting members 36 can be hexagon socket head cap screws to connect the three in a detachable manner, facilitating assembly and disassembly.
[0050] In some embodiments, a second seal 37 is provided between the outer periphery of the bearing housing 17 and the chamber cover 11. The second seal 37 can also be an O-ring seal to seal the assembly position between the bearing housing 17 and the chamber cover 11.
[0051] In some embodiments, a crankshaft 38 is further assembled in the transmission chamber 10 below the camshaft 12. A crankshaft gear 39 is assembled at the end of the crankshaft 38. A middle assembly hole 40 is provided in the middle of the chamber cover 11. A retaining collar 41 is assembled in the middle assembly hole 40. The inner end of the retaining collar 41 is clamped with the end of the crankshaft 38. The axis of the retaining collar 41 coincides with the axis of the crankshaft 38. The outer end of the retaining collar 41 is rotatably assembled in the middle assembly hole 40 to facilitate the docking between the retaining collar 41 and the crankshaft 38; a middle cover plate 42 that seals the middle assembly hole 40 is assembled with screws on the outer middle part of the chamber cover 11 to facilitate the assembly protection and inspection of the retaining collar 41.
