Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to fuel injection system oil pump technical field especially relates to a gear oil pump. BACKGROUND

[0002] In modern fuel injection systems, the high-pressure pump is a key component that is responsible for converting low-pressure diesel fuel into high-pressure fuel for injection. To ensure the proper functioning of the high-pressure pump, diesel fuel from the tank must first be drawn into the high-pressure pump by a low-pressure oil pump. Therefore, the oil pump, as a front-end functional module of the high-pressure pump, plays a crucial role in the entire fuel injection system.

[0003] Currently, based on existing product technology, there are multiple types of oil pumps, including vane-type oil pumps, external gear pumps, internal gear pumps, and gerotor pumps. Although these pumps have their advantages in their respective applications, they also have their limitations.

[0004] Traditional vane-type oil pumps have been widely used due to their simple structure and low manufacturing cost. However, the self-bleeding capability of vane pumps is relatively poor, especially at low speeds, which limits their application range and performance. With the changing market demands and the increasing performance requirements of customers, vane pumps have not been able to fully meet the needs of modern high-pressure pump systems.

[0005] At the same time, gear pumps exhibit higher superiority in performance and stability. However, in most cases where the high-pressure pump has already been finalized and the original installation method and oil path design have been fixed, it is difficult to replace the original vane pump with a gear pump in terms of structural design. This is mainly due to the differences in structure and size between gear pumps and vane pumps, and simple replacement may result in incompatibility or performance degradation.

[0006] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems and meet the market demand for high-performance and high-stability oil pumps, the utility model provides a new type of gear oil pump design scheme. This scheme aims to use a unified oil pump body blank, which can be flexibly matched with different types of high-pressure pumps through different structural designs. At the same time, through the switching design of the oil path, the selection of left and right rotation modes is realized, thereby greatly improving the applicability and flexibility of the oil pump. This innovative design aims to overcome the shortcomings of existing technology and provide a more efficient and stable fuel supply solution for high-pressure pump systems. SUMMARY
