Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of motorcycle engines, and particularly relates to a piston oil cooling and lubricating structure of a horizontal twin-cylinder motorcycle engine. Background Technique
[0002] The twin-cylinder engine of a motorcycle means that the engine has two cylinders, and these two cylinders work together to provide power for the motorcycle. Compared with a single-cylinder engine, the twin-cylinder engine has two pistons doing work alternately, the power output is more uniform, the vibration is reduced, and the riding experience is more comfortable; at the same time, compared with a single-cylinder engine, the working load of each cylinder is relatively small, so the heat dissipation effect is better and the engine life is longer.
[0003] Chinese Patent with application number 2015208753767 discloses a piston cooling device for a motorcycle twin-cylinder engine, which includes a cylinder block, a piston, a crankcase and a crankshaft connecting rod assembly. The crankshaft connecting rod assembly is arranged in the crankcase. There are two cylinder blocks, and pistons are respectively arranged in the two cylinder blocks. The pistons are connected with the crankshaft connecting rod assembly. Annular oil pipes are respectively arranged above the two pistons in the crankcase, and a plurality of piston injection nozzles are arranged on the annular oil pipes; the annular oil pipe is connected with an injection control valve. The injection control valve includes a valve body with a cavity. An oil inlet channel and an oil outlet are arranged on the valve body. The oil outlet is communicated with the annular oil pipe. An annular plug is arranged in the oil inlet channel. A ball valve is arranged at the port of the annular plug. A spring is arranged between the ball valve and the oil outlet. When the engine speed is relatively small, the oil pressure is relatively small, the spring naturally extends, the ball valve contacts the annular plug to block the oil inlet channel; when the engine speed is large enough, the oil pressure increases and presses the ball valve, compresses the spring, and a gap is generated between the ball valve and the annular plug, so that the oil can enter the cavity through the oil inlet channel, enter the annular oil pipe from the oil outlet, and be sprayed onto the piston through a plurality of piston injection nozzles to cool the piston comprehensively. This piston cooling structure is relatively complex, and the oil passage is external, which will increase the volume of the engine and the structure is not compact enough. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Aiming at the above deficiencies existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a piston oil cooling and lubricating structure of a horizontal twin-cylinder motorcycle engine, so as to solve the problems that the piston cooling structure of the existing twin-cylinder engine is complex and not compact enough.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
[0006] A piston oil-cooling lubrication structure for a horizontal twin-cylinder motorcycle engine, comprising a crankcase body and a cylinder block mounted on one side of the crankcase body. The crankcase body is formed by connecting a left crankcase and a right crankcase. Inside the crankcase body, there are two piston oil nozzles arranged towards the back of the piston. On the cylinder block docking surface of the crankcase body, there are a left lubricating oil passage and a right lubricating oil passage. The left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage are respectively arranged on the left crankcase and the right crankcase. One end of the right lubricating oil passage is connected to an oil outlet passage inside the right crankcase. On both the left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage, there is a piston lubricating oil passage connected to the oil inlet of the corresponding side piston oil nozzle. On the cylinder block's body docking surface, there is a mating oil passage for connecting the left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage. The left and right sides of the mating oil passage respectively cooperate with the left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage. In the middle of the mating oil passage, there is an oil passage leading towards the cylinder head. In this way, when the oil pump pumps lubricating oil from the crankcase body towards the cylinder block, the lubricating oil first enters the right lubricating oil passage, the mating oil passage, and the left lubricating oil passage through the oil outlet passage of the crankcase, and then is guided to the corresponding side piston oil nozzle through the left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage. In the above oil circuit, the lubricating oil in the right lubricating oil passage is guided to the left lubricating oil passage through the mating oil passage. The structure is compactly arranged, which can avoid leakage from the docking gap after the oil passage passes through the docking part of the left crankcase and the right crankcase. The piston oil nozzle is arranged facing the back of the piston, and the sprayed lubricating oil can directly reach the back of the piston. Since the temperature at the back of the piston is the highest, this setting can effectively ensure the piston lubrication and cooling effect.
[0007] Further, the cross-sections of the mating oil passage, the left lubricating oil passage, and the right lubricating oil passage are all semi-circular. The left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage are arranged along the outer edge of the cylinder hole of the crankcase body, and are located on the left and right sides of the docking part of the left crankcase and the right crankcase, and there is a spacing between the left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage. In this way, the left lubricating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage are arranged along the outer edge of the cylinder hole, and will not interfere with the bolt connection holes arranged at the docking end, and the structure is compact. After the right lubricating oil passage, the left lubricating oil passage, and the mating oil passage are all semi-circular, after the cylinder block and the crankcase body are fixed together, a circular oil passage can be formed at the mating section of the mating oil passage and the right lubricating oil passage, and the mating section of the mating oil passage and the left lubricating oil passage, and the lubricating oil is guided more smoothly and quickly.
[0008] Further, the mating oil passage includes an oil inlet passage and a crankcase body oil return passage. The oil inlet passage corresponds to and cooperates with the oil outlet passage of the right crankcase, and the crankcase body oil return passage corresponds to and cooperates with the left lubricating oil passage. In this way, the oil inlet passage of the mating oil passage can guide the lubricating oil in the oil outlet passage to the crankcase body oil return passage, and the crankcase body oil return passage can guide the lubricating oil to the left lubricating oil passage.

[0013] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown in the figure, the piston oil cooling and lubrication structure of the horizontal double-cylinder motorcycle engine provided in this embodiment includes a crankcase body and a cylinder block 5 installed on one side of the crankcase body. The crankcase body is formed by connecting a left crankcase 2 and a right crankcase 1. A piston oil injector 4 is provided in both the left crankcase 2 and the right crankcase 1 and is arranged facing the back of the piston. A left lubricating oil passage 32 and a right lubricating oil passage 31 are provided on the cylinder block docking surface 3 of the crankcase body. The left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31 are respectively arranged on the left crankcase 2 and the right crankcase 1. One end of the right lubricating oil passage 31 is connected to the oil outlet passage 12 in the right crankcase 1. A piston lubricating oil passage 33 communicating with the oil inlet of the corresponding side piston oil injector 4 is provided on both the left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31. A mating oil passage 52 for communicating the left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31 is provided on the cylinder block docking surface 51 (the surface corresponding and mating with the crankcase side surface) of the cylinder block 5. The left and right sides of the mating oil passage 52 are respectively in corresponding mating with the left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31. An oil passage 53 leading towards the cylinder head direction is provided in the middle of the mating oil passage 52. In this way, when the oil pump pumps the lubricating oil from the crankcase body towards the cylinder block 5, the lubricating oil enters the right lubricating oil passage 31, the mating oil passage 52, and the left lubricating oil passage 32 successively through the oil outlet passage 12 of the crankcase, and then is guided to the piston oil injector 4 on the corresponding side through the left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31. In the above oil circuit, the lubricating oil in the right lubricating oil passage 31 is guided to the left lubricating oil passage 32 through the mating oil passage 52. The structure is compactly arranged, which can avoid leakage from the docking gap after the oil passage passes through the docking part of the left crankcase 2 and the right crankcase 1. The piston oil injector 4 is arranged facing the back of the piston, and the sprayed lubricating oil can directly reach the back of the piston. Since the temperature at the back of the piston is the highest, this setting can effectively ensure the piston lubrication and cooling effect.
[0014] Furthermore, the cross-sections of the mating oil passage 52, the left lubricating oil passage 32, and the right lubricating oil passage 31 are all semi-circular. The left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31 are arranged along the outer edge of the cylinder hole of the crankcase body and are located on the left and right sides of the docking surface of the left crankcase 2 and the right crankcase 1 (and inside the connecting bolt holes on the cylinder block docking surface). There is a spacing between the left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31. In this way, the left lubricating oil passage 32 and the right lubricating oil passage 31 are arranged along the outer edge of the cylinder hole and will not interfere with the bolt connection holes provided at the docking end, and the structure is compact. After the right lubricating oil passage 31, the left lubricating oil passage 32, and the mating oil passage 52 are all semi-circular, after the cylinder block 5 and the crankcase body are fixed together, a circular oil passage can be formed at the mating section of the mating oil passage 52 and the right lubricating oil passage 31 and the mating section of the mating oil passage 52 and the left lubricating oil passage 32, and the lubricating oil is guided more smoothly and quickly.
[0015] Further, the mating oil passage 52 includes an oil inlet passage 521 and a housing oil return passage 522. The oil inlet passage 521 corresponds to and mates with the oil outlet passage 12, and the housing oil return passage 522 corresponds to and mates with the left lubricating oil passage 32. In this way, the oil inlet passage of the mating oil passage 52 can direct the lubricating oil in the oil outlet passage to the housing oil return passage, and the housing oil return passage can direct the lubricating oil to the left lubricating oil passage 32.
[0016] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit them.
