[0059] This embodiment provides a cooling fan, an engine assembly, and a vehicle. The vehicle includes the engine assembly provided in this embodiment. The engine assembly includes an engine body and a cooling fan provided in this embodiment, the cooling fan being configured to dissipate heat from the engine body.

[0060] Figure 1 This diagram shows a structural schematic of the cooling fan provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 A side view of a cooling fan provided in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cooling fan provided in this embodiment includes a fan spindle 100, fan blades 200, and a clutch device 800.

[0061] Specifically, the fan spindle 100 is rotatable around its own axis, and its hollow interior forms an installation space. Multiple fan blades 200 are evenly arranged circumferentially on the fan spindle 100, with the central axis 210 of each blade passing through the spindle 100 and extending into the installation space at one end. A clutch device 800 is connected to the fan spindle 100 and can adjust the rotational speed of the spindle 100. In other words, the cooling capacity of the cooling fan can be adjusted through the clutch device 800.

[0062] Figure 3 This diagram shows a partial structural cross-sectional view of the cooling fan provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 Show Figure 3 A magnified view of the structure marked A in the middle. Figure 5 Show Figure 3 A magnified view of the structure marked B in the middle section. (Refer to...) Figures 3-5 The cooling fan also includes a piston structure 300 and a connecting structure 400.

[0063] Specifically, the piston structure 300 is coaxially disposed in the installation space and is capable of moving along the axial direction of the fan main shaft 100. The connecting structure 400 is eccentrically connected to the blade central shaft 210 and disposed on the periphery of the piston structure 300. The connecting structure 400 is relatively movably connected to the piston structure 300. The connecting structure 400 can move along the axial direction of the fan main shaft 100 together with the piston structure 300, and the blade central shaft 210 can rotate around its own axis under the movement of the connecting structure 400. The fan main shaft 100 has an axial limiting effect on the blade central shaft 210, and the blade central shaft 210 has only the degree of freedom to rotate around its own axis relative to the fan main shaft 100. Through the axial movement of the piston structure 300 along the fan main shaft 100 and the limiting effect of the fan main shaft 100 on the blade center axis 210, the rotation of the blade center axis 210 around its own axis can be realized, thereby adjusting the angle of the fan blades 200 to achieve a balance between the air pressure and air volume of the cooling fan. Based on the adjustment of the cooling capacity of the cooling fan by the clutch device 800, the range of cooling capacity adjustment of the cooling fan is further expanded, and the accuracy of cooling capacity adjustment is improved.

[0064] It should be noted that the fan's heat dissipation is related to both airflow and air pressure. Increasing the angle of the fan blades 200 increases airflow, while decreasing the angle of the fan blades 200 increases air pressure. Therefore, by adjusting the angle of the fan blades 200, the adjustment range of the fan's heat dissipation capacity can be further expanded beyond the speed adjustment by the clutch device 800, and the adjustment accuracy can be improved. For example, during engine cold starts or idling, if the cooling fan speed is too high, the engine will dissipate heat too quickly, hindering cold starts. In this case, decreasing the angle of the fan blades 200 reduces the cooling fan's heat dissipation at the same speed, facilitating engine cold starts.

[0065] Figure 6 This shows a cross-sectional view of the cooling fan provided in this embodiment of the present invention when the piston structure is at the first dead center; Figure 7 Show Figure 6 A magnified view of a section marked C in the middle; Figure 8 This shows a cross-sectional view of the cooling fan provided in this embodiment of the present invention when the piston structure is at the second dead center; Figure 9 Show Figure 8 A magnified view of the structure marked D in the middle. (Refer to...) Figures 3-9A piston control chamber 110 is formed at the central axis of the installation space, and the pressure in the piston control chamber 110 is adjustable. A control port 120 is provided at the top of the piston control chamber 110. The piston structure 300 is provided with a movable part, which is sleeved outside the piston control chamber 110, and the top of the movable part is positioned directly over the control port 120. The pressure in the piston control chamber 110 can act on the top of the movable part through the control port 120, thereby driving the piston structure 300 to move from the first dead center to the second dead center.

[0066] More specifically, the cooling fan also includes a second elastic element 500, which is coaxially arranged with and connected to the piston structure 300. The piston structure 300 can move from the second dead point to the first dead point under the action of the second elastic element 500. In this embodiment, the second elastic element 500 is specifically sleeved on the outside of the moving part. That is, the force exerted on the piston structure 300 by the pressure in the piston control chamber 110 and the force exerted on the piston structure 300 by the second elastic element 500 are in opposite directions. When the pressure in the piston control chamber 110 is greater than the elastic force of the second elastic element 500, the piston structure 300 moves from the first dead point to the second dead point, and the blade center shaft 210 rotates under the transmission action of the connecting structure 400, increasing the angle of the fan blade 200. When the pressure in the piston control chamber 110 is less than the elastic force of the second elastic element 500, the piston structure 300 moves from the second dead point to the first dead point, and the blade center shaft 210 rotates under the transmission action of the connecting structure 400, reducing the angle of the fan blade 200.

[0067] It should be noted that the cooling fan also includes an oil return structure 730, which connects the piston control chamber 110 and the control valve 600. Hydraulic oil in the piston control chamber 110 can flow back to the control valve 600 through the oil return structure 730. The oil return structure 730 includes an oil return connector 731 and an oil return channel 732. The oil return connector 731 is fixed to the fan main shaft 100, and the oil return channel 732 is opened in the oil return connector 731 and connects to the piston control chamber 110. When it is necessary to reduce the angle of the fan blades 200, the hydraulic oil in the piston control chamber 110 can be discharged through the oil return channel 732 under the control of the control valve 600, so that the piston structure 300 can move towards the first stop point under the elastic force of the second elastic element 500. In this embodiment, the control valve 600 can specifically be a solenoid valve.

[0068] More specifically, the piston structure 300 is provided with a first mounting groove 320, and one end of the second elastic element 500 is mounted in the first mounting groove 320. A second mounting groove 130 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting space, and the other end of the second elastic element 500 is mounted in the second mounting groove 130. In this embodiment, the first mounting groove 320 is formed circumferentially on the periphery of the moving part. The second mounting groove 130 is specifically formed at the second stop position of the piston structure 300 corresponding to the mounting space. Through the aforementioned first mounting groove 320 and second mounting groove 130, a reliable connection between the second elastic element 500 and the piston structure 300 can be achieved.

[0069] Continue to refer to Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 The connection structure 400 includes a connecting shaft 410 and a moving block 420. The connecting shaft 410 is fixedly connected to one side of the moving block 420 and to the end of the blade central shaft 210, with the connecting shaft 410 and the blade central shaft 210 arranged eccentrically. The piston structure 300 forms a circumferential abutment 310, which is formed on the outer side of the second mounting groove 130. The bottom and the side of the moving block 420 facing away from the connecting shaft 410 abut against the abutment 310, which limits the movement of the moving block 420 in the axial direction of the blade central shaft 210. A top limiting member (not shown) is provided on the abutment 310, which abuts against the top of the moving block 420, thereby positioning the moving block 420 in the axial direction of the fan main shaft 100. The movable block 420 can move along the circumference of the piston structure 300 or in a direction that is angled to the generatrix of the piston structure 300 and parallel to the upper end face of the abutment ring 310 on the abutment ring 310. In this embodiment, the movable block 420 can move along the circumference of the piston structure 300.

[0070] When the piston structure 300 moves axially along the fan main shaft 100 and drives the blade center shaft 210 to rotate through the eccentrically connected connecting shaft 410, the moving block 420 will undergo a displacement along the circumference of the piston structure 300 on the abutment ring 310 under the reaction action of the blade center shaft 210 and the limiting action of the abutment ring 310. When the piston structure 300 moves from the first dead center to the second dead center, the blade center shaft 210 rotates in the positive direction, increasing the angle of the fan blades 200. When the piston structure 300 moves from the second dead center to the first dead center, the blade center shaft 210 rotates in the opposite direction, decreasing the angle of the fan blades 200.

[0071] It can be seen that when the piston structure 300 is at the first dead center, the central axis of the connecting shaft 410 is located below the central axis of the blade central shaft 210, as shown below. Figure 7 As shown. When the piston structure 300 is at the second dead center, the central axis of the connecting shaft 410 is located above the central axis of the blade central shaft 210, as shown. Figure 9 As shown.

[0072] In another embodiment, no top limiting member is provided on the abutment ring 310. In this case, the bottom of the moving block 420 and the side facing away from the connecting shaft 410 abut against the abutment ring 310. That is, the piston structure 300 can be positioned axially with the connecting structure 400 on the blade center shaft 210. The blade center shaft 210 can rotate in the positive direction around its own axis as the piston structure 300 moves from the first dead point to the second dead point, increasing the angle of the fan blade 200. Between the blade center shaft 210 and the fan main shaft 100, corresponding to the position where the blade center shaft 210 passes through the fan main shaft 100, a first elastic element (not shown) is provided, and the blade center shaft 210 can rotate in the opposite direction around its own axis under the elastic action of the first elastic element. In other words, when the piston structure 300 moves from the second dead center to the first dead center under the action of the second elastic element 500, the moving block 420 loses the pushing action of the piston structure 300. At this time, the blade center shaft 210 can rotate under the elastic action of the first elastic element, that is, reduce the angle of the fan blade 200. The first elastic element can specifically be a torsion spring in the prior art.

[0073] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 In this embodiment, the cooling fan also includes a control valve 600 and a hydraulic oil source. The hydraulic oil source and the control valve 600 are connected through a hydraulic oil source connecting pipe 640, and the control valve 600 is connected to the piston control chamber 110 through a fan oil supply pipe 610. The control valve 600 can control the amount of hydraulic oil entering the piston control chamber 110.

[0074] To be more specific, continue to refer to Figure 5The cooling fan also includes an oil inlet pipe 710, which passes through the top of the moving part of the piston structure 300 and extends into the piston control chamber 110. The control valve 600 is connected to the piston control chamber 110 through the oil inlet pipe 710. A sealing structure 720 is provided between the oil inlet pipe 710 and the piston structure 300. The diameter of the control port 120 is larger than the outer diameter of the oil inlet pipe 710, and the oil inlet pipe 710 and the control port 120 are coaxially arranged. The sealing structure 720 can specifically be a sealing ring. A sealing groove is formed on the inner peripheral wall of the through hole through which the oil inlet pipe 710 passes at the top of the moving part of the piston structure 300, and the sealing ring is installed in the sealing groove. Through the above-mentioned sealing structure 720, the piston control chamber 110 can be sealed to prevent hydraulic oil leakage.

[0075] More specifically, the fan spindle 100 is also provided with a receiving groove 140, which is independent of the installation space and connects the oil inlet pipe 710 and the fan oil supply pipe 610. The cross-sectional area of ​​the receiving groove 140 is larger than the diameter of the oil inlet pipe 710, and the receiving groove 140 is configured to receive hydraulic oil. Through the receiving groove 140, the hydraulic oil can be temporarily stored, avoiding the problem of oil spraying at the inlet of the oil inlet pipe 710 due to the small diameter of the oil inlet pipe under air pressure.

[0076] In this embodiment, the clutch device 800 is also controlled by hydraulic oil. This clutch device 800 is existing technology, and its principle is roughly as follows: The clutch device 800 and the control valve 600 are connected via a clutch oil supply pipe 620 and a clutch oil return pipe 630. The pulley on the clutch device 800 transmits power from the engine crankshaft to the friction plate assembly of the clutch device 800. This friction plate assembly is specifically a multi-layer composite friction plate. The control valve 600 transmits hydraulic oil to the friction plate assembly through the clutch oil supply pipe 620 to adjust the engagement degree of the multi-layer composite friction plate, thereby controlling the speed of the fan main shaft 100. Simultaneously, the control valve 600 also controls the return of oil from the multi-layer composite friction plate through the clutch oil return pipe 630.

[0077] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model.
