[0025] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0026] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a high-strength automotive engine connecting rod, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0027] This connecting rod offers improved wear resistance. In the automotive engine, the crankshaft is mounted on the inner ring of the connecting ring. The connecting ring, instead of the connecting big end, contacts the crankshaft surface. During crankshaft movement, the connecting ring rotates, contacting the outer wear-resistant shaft. This causes the wear-resistant shaft to rotate within a groove, further increasing the lifespan of the connecting big end. This design solves the problem of existing engine connecting rods where the inner wall of the big end easily wears down when in contact with the crankshaft, thus reducing the connecting rod's lifespan.

[0037] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0038] Example 1
[0039] See Figure 1-5 A high-strength automotive engine connecting rod includes a main body assembly 1, comprising: a large connecting end 11, to which a connecting member 12 is fixedly connected; and a small connecting end 13, fixedly connected to the end of the connecting member 12 away from the large connecting end 11. Wear-resistant components 2 are provided on the large connecting end 11 and the connecting member 12. The wear-resistant component 2 includes: a rotating groove 21 symmetrically arranged around the large connecting end 11; a wear-resistant shaft 22 symmetrically and rotatably connected within the rotating groove 21; a connecting ring 23 rotatably connected to the middle of the wear-resistant shaft 22; a top cover 24 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the large connecting end 11, with the wear-resistant shaft 22 located between the top covers 24; and a movable cavity 25 formed between the large connecting end 11 and the connecting ring 23, with the wear-resistant shaft 22 located within the movable cavity 25. A keel 26 is provided on the connecting member 12. A wear-resistant layer 27 is provided on the inner sidewall of the connecting ring 23.
[0040] In use, the crankshaft of the car engine is mounted on the inner ring of the connecting ring 23. The connecting ring 23 replaces the connecting head 11 in contact with the crankshaft surface. When the crankshaft moves, the connecting ring 23 rotates, contacting the outer wear-resistant shaft 22. This causes the wear-resistant shaft 22 to rotate within the rotating groove 21, increasing the service life of the connecting head 11. The rib 26 on the connecting part 12 increases the strength of the connecting part 12, thereby reducing the probability of breakage of the connecting head 11, connecting part 12, and connecting small head 13 during use. The wear-resistant layer 27 on the inner wall of the connecting ring 23 increases the wear resistance of the connecting ring 23, thus increasing its service life.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] An auxiliary function has been added based on Embodiment 1.
[0043] See Figure 1-5 Bolts 241 are symmetrically arranged on the top cover 24, and sealing gaskets 242 are arranged on the opposing surfaces of the top cover 24, with the bolts 241 penetrating the sealing gaskets 242. An oil injection assembly 3 is provided on the connecting head 11 and the connecting member 12. The oil injection assembly 3 includes: an oil injection port 31 located at the top of the connecting member 12; an oil storage chamber 32 located inside the connecting head 11 and the connecting member 12, with the top of the oil storage chamber 32 communicating with the oil injection port 31; a plug 33 located inside the oil injection port 31; and an oil outlet 34 communicating between the oil storage chamber 32 and the movable chamber 25. Multiple sets of oil outlets 34 are symmetrically arranged, located at the top and the middle of both sides of the connecting ring 23.
[0044] The bolts 241 on the top cover 24 allow the top cover 24 to be removed from the connecting head 11, making it easier for workers to replace the wear-resistant shaft 22 and the connecting ring 23. Loosen the bolts 241, remove the two top covers 24 from the connecting head 11, and then place the new top covers 24 on the top and bottom of the connecting head 11 respectively. Tighten the bolts 241 to complete the replacement of the top cover 24. There is no need to replace the entire main component 1, thereby increasing the service life of the connecting head 11. During the rotation of the connecting ring 23, the lubrication assembly 3 injects lubricating oil into the movable cavity 25 to reduce the friction between the connecting ring 23 and the wear-resistant shaft 22. The operator removes the plug 33 and periodically injects lubricating oil into the lubrication port 31. The lubricating oil enters the oil storage cavity 32 through the lubrication port 31. The oil storage cavity 32 delivers the lubricating oil to the oil outlet 34, from which lubricating oil is injected into the movable cavity 25. As the wear-resistant shaft 22 and the connecting ring 23 move, the lubricating oil is gradually filled into the movable cavity 25. The multiple oil outlets 34 increase the number of lubrication points, thereby improving the uniformity of lubricating oil addition.
[0045] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
