[0002] As the engine of a vehicle, the internal combustion engine has the characteristics of stable performance and a large number of users. The engine occupies an important part in the vehicle. Improving the performance of the engine, improving its structure, and optimizing the peripheral transmission structure are all important directions for continuous research and development in this field. In the existing engine, the crankshaft and the speed signal disk (signal ring gear) are installed separately, and the speed signal disk is generally installed at the front or rear end of the body. Both of these methods require the addition of a speed sensor fixing bracket on certain parts at the front or rear end of the body. At the same time, the existing connecting rod that drives the compressor is usually arranged on the crankshaft. The piston that drives the compressor will generate an eccentric force on the crankshaft, causing the crankshaft to be unevenly stressed. There is no balancing structure on the crankshaft, resulting in poor stability of the crankshaft. In addition, such an arrangement increases the complexity of the engine structure, occupies a certain space, affects the arrangement of other accessories, increases the difficulty of arrangement, and weakens the versatility of components, and cannot be eliminated. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to address the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art and to provide a crank arm mechanism with an integrated signal disk, which has a high degree of integration, effectively shortens the overall structure, and is convenient for installation in a narrow space. At the same time, it has the ability to balance the reciprocating inertia force of the piston, thereby improving the stability of the crankshaft operation, and is easy to use and highly practical.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a crank arm mechanism with an integrated signal disk, comprising a front end shaft, a signal disk for determining the position and rotation angle of the crankshaft is provided on one side of the front end shaft, a plurality of signal teeth are provided on the outer extension of the signal disk, a crank pin is provided on the side of the signal disk away from the front end shaft, a connecting rod is rotatably connected to the crank pin, the upper end of the connecting rod is connected to the compressor piston, a plurality of weight-reducing grooves are provided on both sides of the upper end of the signal disk, a counterweight block is provided on the lower semicircle of the signal disk, and the other side of the front end shaft is connected to the crank arm of the crankshaft.
[0005] As a further improvement, the crank pin is eccentrically arranged on the signal disk.
[0006] Furthermore, the connecting rod is rotatably mounted on the crank pin via a needle bearing, and the outer end of the crank pin is provided with a washer and a locking screw for preventing the needle bearing from axially moving.
[0007] Furthermore, the signal disk has a structure that is thin at the top and thick at the bottom, and the thickness of the signal disk gradually increases from top to bottom.
[0008] Furthermore, the weight-reducing groove is an arc-shaped long slot hole, the number of the weight-reducing grooves is two, and the two weight-reducing grooves are symmetrically arranged.
[0009] Furthermore, the connecting rod and the crank arm of the crankshaft are arranged perpendicular to each other.
[0010] Furthermore, the counterweight, signal disc and signal tooth are an integrated structure.
[0011] Beneficial effects
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0013] The utility model provides a crank arm mechanism with an integrated signal disk. When the engine crankshaft rotates, the signal disk is driven to rotate. The signal disk has a weight-reducing groove on its upper side and a counterweight block on its lower end, so that the signal disk has a light upper part and a heavy lower part structure. After movement, an eccentric force is generated. The eccentric force generated by the signal disk and the eccentric force generated by the movement of the compressor piston are on the same line, which just balances the centrifugal force of the crankpin movement. At the same time, it can balance the reciprocating inertia force of the connecting rod and the piston, thereby improving the stability of the crankshaft operation. While acting as a signal disk, it also acts as a crank arm, which is equivalent to integrating the crank arm and the signal disk together. While ensuring the stable operation of the crankshaft, the installation requirement of one crank arm is reduced, thereby shortening the structure, making the structures more compact, reducing the arrangement of components around the engine, optimizing the installation space of the engine, and also reducing the use of components, and effectively reducing production costs, realizing lightweight manufacturing, and having the characteristics of easy use and wide application range.

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the specific embodiments in the accompanying drawings.
[0018] See Figure 1-2As shown, the utility model is a crank arm mechanism with an integrated signal disk, including a front end shaft 1, a signal disk 2 for determining the position and rotation angle of the crankshaft is provided on one side of the front end shaft 1, a plurality of signal teeth 3 are provided on the outer extension of the signal disk 2, a crank pin 4 is provided on the side of the signal disk away from the front end shaft 1, a connecting rod 8 is rotatably connected to the crank pin 4, the upper end of the connecting rod 8 is connected to the compressor piston 9, a plurality of weight reduction grooves 5 are opened on both sides of the upper end of the signal disk 2, a counterweight block 6 is provided on the lower semicircle of the signal disk 2, and the other side of the front end shaft 1 is connected to the crank arm 7 of the crankshaft 12. When the engine crankshaft rotates, the signal disk 2 is driven to rotate. The signal disk 2 has a weight reduction groove 5 opened on its upper side and a counterweight block 6 is added at the lower end, so that the signal disk 2 has a light upper and heavy lower structure. , after movement, eccentric force is generated. The eccentric force generated by the signal disk 2 and the eccentric force generated by the movement of the compressor piston are in the same straight line, which just balances the centrifugal force of the crank pin 4 movement. At the same time, it can balance the reciprocating inertia force of the connecting rod 8 and the compressor piston 9, thereby improving the stability of the crankshaft 12 operation. While acting as the signal disk 2, it also acts as a crank arm, which is equivalent to integrating the crank arm and the signal disk together. While ensuring the stable operation of the crankshaft 12, the installation requirement of one crank arm is reduced, thereby shortening the structure, making the structures more compact, reducing the layout of components around the engine, optimizing the installation space of the engine, and also reducing the use of components, effectively reducing production costs, and realizing lightweight manufacturing.
[0019] Specifically, the crank pin 4 is eccentrically arranged on the signal disk 2, so that when the signal disk 2 rotates, the crank pin 4 can drive the connecting rod 8 to move, and the connecting rod 8 drives the compressor piston 9 to perform reciprocating motion, thereby realizing the work of the compressor. This structural connection structure is integrated on the signal disk 2. Compared with the traditional connection with the crankshaft 12, this structure is more compact, has a smaller installation space, is lighter, and saves manufacturing costs.
[0020] Preferably, the connecting rod 8 is rotatably mounted on the crank pin 4 through a needle bearing. The outer end of the crank pin 4 is provided with a gasket 10 and a locking screw 11 for preventing axial movement of the needle bearing. The needle bearing makes the rotation of the connecting rod 8 smoother. The gasket 10 and the locking screw 11 are used for locking, which facilitates the installation and later replacement of the bearing and prevents the needle bearing from falling off.
[0021] Furthermore, the signal disk 2 has a thin top and thick bottom structure, and the thickness of the signal disk 2 gradually increases from top to bottom, so that the signal disk 2 can play the role of installing a balance block 13 on the crank arm 7, so that the signal disk 2 can balance the centrifugal force of the movement of the crank pin 4, making the crankshaft 12 run more smoothly.
[0022] Furthermore, the weight-reducing groove 5 is an arc-shaped long slot hole, and there are two weight-reducing grooves 5 , which are symmetrically arranged. The symmetrically arranged weight-reducing grooves 5 make the mass point of the signal disk 2 on the center line, allowing the signal disk 2 to better play a balancing role.
[0023] Furthermore, the connecting rod 8 and the crank arm 7 of the crankshaft are arranged perpendicular to each other, ensuring that the direction of the connecting rod 8's up and down movement corresponds to the downward deviation of the signal disk 2, ensuring that the signal disk 2 can successfully balance the reciprocating inertia force of the connecting rod 8 and the compressor piston 9.
[0024] Furthermore, the counterweight 6, the signal disc 2 and the signal tooth 3 are an integrated structure, which is convenient for production and manufacturing, reduces stress concentration and avoids cracking in the later stage.
[0025] When the crank arm mechanism with an integrated signal disk of this embodiment is in use, the signal disk 2 is driven to rotate when the engine crankshaft rotates. The signal disk 2 has a weight-reducing groove 5 on its upper side and a counterweight block 6 on its lower end, so that the signal disk 2 has a light upper part and a heavy lower part structure. After movement, an eccentric force is generated. The eccentric force generated by the signal disk 2 is in the same straight line as the eccentric force generated by the movement of the compressor piston, which just balances the centrifugal force of the crank pin 4 movement. At the same time, it can balance the reciprocating inertia force of the connecting rod 8 and the compressor piston 9, thereby improving the stability of the operation of the crankshaft 12. While acting as the signal disk 2, it also acts as a crank arm, which is equivalent to integrating the crank arm and the signal disk. While ensuring the stable operation of the crankshaft 12, the installation requirement of one crank arm is reduced, thereby shortening the structure, making the structures more compact, reducing the layout of the components around the engine, optimizing the installation space of the engine, and also reducing the use of components, effectively reducing production costs, and realizing lightweight manufacturing. The utility model provides a crank arm mechanism with an integrated signal disk, which has a high degree of integration, effectively shortens the overall structure, and is easy to install in a small space. At the same time, it has the ability to balance the reciprocating inertia force of the piston, improves the stability of the crankshaft operation, and is easy to use and highly practical.
[0026] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent.
