DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4 An impact-resistant split crank for a chainsaw comprises a main journal 1, the bottom end of the main journal 1 is provided with a connecting rod journal 2, the connecting rod journal 2 is provided with a crank 3 at both ends, the end of the crank 3 away from the connecting rod journal 2 is provided with a front end shaft 4, a buffer assembly is arranged between the connecting rod journal 2 and the crank 3, and impact-resistant assemblies are arranged on the main journal 1 and the front end shaft 4. When the chainsaw engine is working, the reciprocating motion of the piston is transmitted to the connecting rod journal 2 through the connecting rod, so that the crank starts to rotate. The main journal 1 serves as a support component to ensure the stable rotation of the crank, and the power is output from the front end shaft 4 to drive the saw chain and other components of the chainsaw to work.
[0023] The buffer assembly comprises a spring 7, a rubber pad 6 and a collar 61, the collar 61 is rotatably sleeved at both ends of the connecting rod journal 2, the rubber pad 6 is fixedly connected between the collar 61 and the inner wall of the crank 3, and the spring 7 is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the crank 3 and the outer wall of the collar 61. When the crank is impacted, the collars 61 sleeved at both ends of the connecting rod journal 2 can rotate relatively, and the buffer assembly composed of the rubber pad 6 and the spring 7 plays a role. The rubber pad 6 is elastic and can preliminarily buffer the impact, and the spring 7 further absorbs and disperses the impact force to reduce the influence of the impact on the connecting part of the crank 3 and the connecting rod journal 2.
[0024] The impact-resistant assembly includes an outer layer 11, an intermediate layer 12, and an inner layer 13. The outer layer 11 is arranged at the outermost part of the main shaft neck 1 and the front end shaft 4. The intermediate layer 12 is arranged on the side wall of the outer layer 11. The inner layer 13 is arranged on the side wall of the intermediate layer 12 away from the outer layer 11. The outer layer 11 is made of an alloy coating. The intermediate layer 12 is made of copper alloy. The inner layer 13 is made of high-strength alloy steel. The impact-resistant assembly on the main shaft neck 1 and the front end shaft 4 plays a protective role. The alloy coating of the outer layer 11 has high hardness and good wear resistance, and can resist external friction and slight impact. The copper alloy of the intermediate layer 12 has good toughness and heat conductivity, which can further buffer the impact and dissipate heat. The high-strength alloy steel of the inner layer 13 provides strong support and carrying capacity, ensuring that the main shaft neck 1 and the front end shaft 4 will not easily deform or break under impact.
[0025] The front end shaft 4 is fixedly installed with a shock absorber 14 on the outer wall, and the crank 3 is fixedly installed with a reinforcing rib 5 on the side wall. The shock absorber 14 on the outer wall of the front end shaft 4 can reduce the vibration generated during the rotation of the crankshaft, improving the stability and operation comfort of the chainsaw. The reinforcing rib 5 on the side wall of the crank 3 enhances the strength of the crank 3, enabling it to better withstand impact and torque.
[0026] The connecting rod journal 2 is provided with an oil inlet 8. The connecting rod journal 2, the crank 3, and the front end shaft 4 are provided with internal through holes 9. The internal through holes 9 are in communication with the oil inlet 8. Oil outlets 10 are arranged on both sides of the internal through holes 9. Lubricating oil enters the connecting rod journal 2 from the oil inlet 8, flows through the internal through holes 9 to various parts of the crankshaft, and finally flows out from the oil outlets 10. Lubricating oil not only reduces friction between parts, but also carries away part of the heat and impurities, ensuring that the crankshaft works in good lubrication and heat dissipation conditions.
[0027] Structure description: Main shaft neck 1: As the core support part of the impact-resistant split crankshaft for chainsaws, it is installed in the main bearing seat of the engine. Its main function is to provide stable support for the entire crankshaft, ensuring that the crankshaft can rotate smoothly. During engine operation, the main shaft neck bears the combined force of gas pressure transmitted by the piston through the connecting rod, inertial force, etc., and is a key component to ensure normal operation of the crankshaft.
[0028] Connecting rod journal 2: Also known as crankpin, it is connected to the large end of the connecting rod. Its function is to convert the reciprocating linear motion of the piston into the circular rotary motion of the crankshaft. In the working cycle of the engine, the piston moves up and down in the cylinder, and the force is transmitted to the connecting rod journal through the connecting rod, thereby driving the crankshaft to rotate, and then driving other components of the chainsaw to work.
[0029] Crank 3: Connects the main journal 1 and the connecting rod journal 2, plays a role in force transmission and conversion. It transmits the force exerted by the piston on the connecting rod journal through the connecting rod to the main journal, enabling the crankshaft to continuously perform circumferential motion. The shape and size of the crank design have a significant impact on the balance performance and power transmission efficiency of the crankshaft.
[0030] Front end shaft 4: Located at the front end of the crankshaft, usually used to install some driving accessories such as starting device, chain wheel, etc. It outputs the power of the crankshaft to other parts of the chainsaw, and is the key link of engine power transmission to external working parts. The front end shaft needs to have certain strength and rigidity to ensure reliable power transmission.
[0031] Reinforcing rib 5: Fixedly installed on the side wall of the crank 3, its main function is to enhance the strength and rigidity of the crank 3. During the operation of the crankshaft, the crank will bear a large torque and impact force, and the reinforcing rib can effectively disperse these forces, reduce the risk of deformation or fracture of the crank, and improve the overall reliability of the crankshaft.
[0032] Rubber pad 6: Fixedly connected between the collar 61 and the inner wall of the crank 3. The rubber pad has good elasticity and buffering performance, and can absorb part of the impact energy when the crankshaft is impacted, reducing the impact on the connecting part of the crank 3 and the connecting rod journal 2, playing a buffering and protection role.
[0033] Spring 7: Fixedly connected between the inner wall of the crank 3 and the outer wall of the collar 61. Cooperating with the rubber pad 6, the spring further enhances the buffering effect. When impacted, the spring will elastically deform, absorb and store impact energy, and then release energy after the impact disappears, enabling the crankshaft to run more smoothly.
[0034] Collar 61: Rotatably sleeved on both ends of the connecting rod journal 2, it provides a basis for the installation and support of the rubber pad 6 and the spring 7. The collar can rotate relative to the connecting rod journal, enabling the buffering assembly to better play its role and effectively cope with impacts of different directions and sizes.
[0035] Oil inlet 8: Provided on the connecting rod journal 2, it is the inlet for lubricating oil to enter the crankshaft. After entering the crankshaft from the oil inlet, the lubricating oil is transported to various parts of the crankshaft that need lubrication through the internal through hole 9, ensuring good lubrication between the parts of the crankshaft and reducing friction and wear.
[0036] Internal through hole 9: Penetrates the connecting rod journal 2, the crank 3 and the front end shaft 4, and is connected with the oil inlet 8. Its function is to provide a flow channel for lubricating oil, enabling it to reach all key parts of the crankshaft for comprehensive lubrication.
[0037] Oil outlet 10: Opened on both sides of the internal through hole 9, the lubricating oil flows out through the oil outlet after completing the lubrication of each part of the crankshaft, forming a complete lubrication cycle system. The setting of the oil outlet helps to maintain the flowability of the lubricating oil, carry away the heat and impurities generated by friction, and ensure the lubrication effect.
[0038] Outer layer 11: Set at the outermost part of the main journal 1 and the front end shaft 4, the material is alloy coating. Alloy coating has the characteristics of high hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, etc., which can effectively resist external friction, wear and corrosion, protect the internal structure of the main journal and the front end shaft from damage, and improve its impact resistance.
[0039] Intermediate layer 12: Located on the side wall of the outer layer 11, the material is copper alloy. Copper alloy has good toughness and thermal conductivity, which can further buffer impact energy and quickly dissipate heat generated by friction, reducing the impact of temperature rise on the performance of the crankshaft.
[0040] Inner layer 13: Set on the side wall of the intermediate layer 12 away from the outer layer 11, the material is high-strength alloy steel. High-strength alloy steel has excellent strength and toughness, which can provide strong support and carrying capacity for the main journal and the front end shaft, ensuring that it will not deform or break when subjected to a larger impact.
[0041] Shock absorber 14: Fixedly installed on the outer wall of the front end shaft 4, its function is to reduce the vibration generated by the crankshaft during rotation. The shock absorber can absorb and consume vibration energy, making the chainsaw work more smoothly, reducing noise, and improving the comfort and stability of operation
[0042] When the chainsaw engine is working, the reciprocating motion of the piston is transmitted to the connecting rod journal 2 through the connecting rod, causing the crankshaft to start rotating. The main journal 1 acts as a support component, ensuring the smooth rotation of the crankshaft, and the power is output from the front shaft 4 to drive the saw chain and other components of the chainsaw. When the crankshaft is impacted, the collar 61 fitted at both ends of the connecting rod journal 2 can rotate relative to each other, and the buffer assembly composed of the rubber pad 6 and the spring 7 plays a role. The rubber pad 6 has elasticity and can preliminarily buffer the impact, and the spring 7 further absorbs and disperses the impact force, reducing the impact on the connecting part of the crank 3 and the connecting rod journal 2, and the impact-resistant components on the main journal 1 and the front shaft 4 play a protective role. The alloy coating of the outer layer 11 has high hardness and good wear resistance, and can resist external friction and slight impact; the copper alloy of the middle layer 12 has good toughness and thermal conductivity, which can further buffer the impact and dissipate heat; the high-strength alloy steel of the inner layer 13 provides strong support and carrying capacity, ensuring that the main journal 1 and the front shaft 4 will not easily deform or break under impact, and the shock absorber 14 on the outer wall of the front shaft 4 can reduce the vibration generated during the rotation of the crankshaft, improving the stability and operation comfort of the chainsaw. The reinforcing ribs 5 on the side wall of the crank 3 enhance the strength of the crank 3, making it better able to withstand impact and torque, and the lubricating oil enters the connecting rod journal 2 from the oil inlet 8, flows to various parts of the crankshaft through the internal through hole 9, and finally flows out from the oil outlet 10. The lubricating oil not only reduces the friction between the components, but also carries away part of the heat and impurities, ensuring that the crankshaft works in good lubrication and heat dissipation conditions.
