Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances. Furthermore, in the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" refers to two or more. "And / or" describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone.

[0022] This application discloses an observation window cover structure. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the observation window cover structure includes a base 1, a transparent cover 2, and a stop 3; wherein, the base 1 has a through hole 11 corresponding to the observation window; the transparent cover 2 is slidably engaged with the base 1; the stop 3 is slidably disposed on the base 1, and the stop 3 has a first preset position and a second preset position on the base 1. When the stop 3 is in the first preset position, it can block the transparent cover 2 in a position that forms a shield against the through hole 11, and when the stop 3 is in the second preset position, it can slide the transparent cover 2 off the base 1.
[0023] By using the observation window cover structure in this technical solution, the entire observation window cover structure is installed on the observation window of the flywheel housing, so that the through hole 11 of the base 1 corresponds to the observation window of the flywheel housing. During normal engine operation, the stop block 3 can be slid on the base 1 to be placed in the first preset position, so that the transparent cover 2 is stable at the through hole 11 of the base 1. When it is necessary to observe the OT mark on the flywheel, the staff can directly view it through the transparent cover 2 without disassembly and assembly, thereby greatly improving work efficiency, reducing the labor intensity of the staff, and making it easier and more convenient for the staff to observe the OT mark on the flywheel.
[0024] In addition, if the transparent cover 2 becomes dusty and obstructs the view, the staff can slide the block 3 from the first preset position to the second preset position, and then slide the transparent cover 2 off the base 1. After cleaning the transparent cover 2, the transparent cover 2 can be reinstalled on the base 1, and then the block 3 can be slid from the second preset position to the first preset position. The operation is convenient and the maintenance efficiency is high.
[0025] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 1 is a plate-shaped structure. The base 1 includes a first bottom surface and a second bottom surface facing each other, as well as a side wall connecting the first bottom surface and the second bottom surface. A through hole 11 is provided on the base 1 along the direction from the first bottom surface to the second bottom surface. A first groove 12 is provided on the side wall of the base 1 along the direction perpendicular to the side wall, which slides and engages with the transparent cover plate 2.
[0026] In this embodiment, by setting a plate-shaped base 1, a through hole 11 is opened along the thickness direction of the base 1, and a first sliding groove 12 is opened along the direction perpendicular to the side wall of the base 1, the transparent cover plate 2 can be located at the through hole 11 when it slides into the first sliding groove 12. The structure is simple, the sliding fit is stable and the operation is convenient, and the number of parts is further reduced.
[0027] It should be noted that the span of the first slide groove 12 on the base 1 should appropriately exceed the through hole 11 to ensure that the transparent cover plate 2 that cooperates with the first slide groove 12 can completely cover the through hole 11, so that the transparent cover plate 2 can effectively block the through hole 11 during normal engine operation.
[0028] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plate-shaped base 1 includes, but is not limited to, rectangular plates, circular plates, or other polygonal plates, etc., and is not limited thereto. It is preferred to use regular rectangular plates to facilitate processing.
[0029] In some embodiments of this utility model, the shape of the transparent cover plate 2 includes, but is not limited to, a rectangle, a circle, or other polygons, and is not limited here. A regular rectangle is preferred to facilitate the machining of a suitable first groove 12 on the base 1.
[0030] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first slide groove 12 on the base 1 is set with one end open and the other end closed along the sliding direction of the transparent cover plate 2, and the stop block 3 is set at the open end.
[0031] In this embodiment, the transparent cover plate 2 is installed in the first slide groove 12. One end of the cover plate abuts against the closed end of the first slide groove 12 to automatically form a limit, and the other end is blocked by the stop block 3, which further reduces the number of parts.
[0032] In other embodiments of this utility model, the first slide groove 12 on the base 1 along the sliding direction of the transparent cover plate 2 can also be set with openings at both ends, and the stop block 3 is set at the two opening ends respectively, that is, the transparent cover plate 2 is installed in the first slide groove 12, and each end of it is locked and limited by a stop block 3.
[0033] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a second slide groove 13 is provided on the base 1 on one side of the opening end of the first slide groove 12, which slides in cooperation with the stop block 3. A part of the length of the second slide groove 13 is within the range of the first slide groove 12, and another part of the length of the second slide groove 13 is offset from the first slide groove 12.
[0034] It should be understood that in this embodiment, the first preset position is located on the length of the second slide 13 within the range of the first slide 12, and the second preset position is located on the length of the second slide 13 offset from the first slide 12. By moving the position of the stop block 3 within the second slide 13, the transparent cover plate 2 can be disassembled and assembled. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient. There is no need to remove the stop block 3 from the base 1, which effectively avoids the loss of parts.
[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, the shape of the second slide groove 13 along its length direction includes, but is not limited to, straight line, arc, etc. It can be reasonably designed according to the shape of the transparent cover plate 2. It is preferred to adopt a straight line shape to facilitate the sliding of the stop block 3 within it.
[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second slide groove 13 is connected to the first bottom surface or the second bottom surface, and the base 1 is provided with an operating handle 4 that is connected to the stop block 3.
[0037] It should be noted that when the observation window cover structure is installed on the flywheel housing, one of the first and second bottom surfaces of the base 1 will contact the flywheel housing, and the other bottom surface will be away from the surface of the flywheel housing. That is, the operating handle 4 is set on the side of the base 1 away from the flywheel housing, and the operating handle 4 is fixedly connected to the stop block 3 through the part of the second slide groove 13 that communicates with the outside of the base 1.
[0038] In this embodiment, the stop block 3 can be slid within the second slide groove 13 by operating the handle 4, thereby improving the ease of operation of the stop block 3 and increasing the efficiency of disassembling and assembling the transparent cover plate 2.
[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, the operating handle 4 can be connected to the stop block 3 by welding, screw fixing or other means, which is not limited here.
[0040] Furthermore, the shape of the operating handle 4 may include, but is not limited to, circular block shape, rectangular block shape, etc., and the operating handle 4 may also be provided with anti-slip stripes and other structures to facilitate manual operation by the staff.
[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the second slide groove 13 is provided with a stabilizing member 5 for stabilizing the stop block 3 in the first preset position and the second preset position respectively.
[0042] In this embodiment, the stop block 3 is stabilized in the first preset position or the second preset position in the second slide groove 13 by the stabilizing member 5. In particular, the first preset position can reduce the possibility of the stop block 3 shifting from a specific position during normal engine operation and ensure that the stop block 3 effectively limits the transparent cover plate 2.
[0043] In some embodiments of this utility model, the stabilizing member 5 and the stop block 3 can be made of materials that can magnetically attract each other. Under the condition that the stop block 3 can slide without obstruction in the second slide groove 13, a stabilizing member 5 is installed in the second slide groove 13 at a first preset position and a second preset position respectively. Through the magnetic attraction between the stop block 3 and the stabilizing member 5, the stop block 3 is stabilized at the first preset position or the second preset position, and the stop block 3 is moved away from the first preset position or the second preset position by overcoming the magnetic force of the stop block 3 and the stabilizing member 5.
[0044] In other embodiments of this utility model, the stop block 3 can also be stabilized at the first preset position and the second preset position by elastic snap-fit, such as by interference fit with a certain elastic deformation, elastic buckle and other structures.
[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base is provided with a scribing line 14, which is located at the through hole.
[0046] In this embodiment, by observing the alignment of the flywheel OT marking with the marking 14 on the base 1 through the transparent cover plate 5, it is easier to adjust valve clearance and other operations.
[0047] In some embodiments of this utility model, the base 1 can be directly fixed to the flywheel housing by welding to further reduce the number of parts. The base 1 is preferably made of metal, such as steel or aluminum alloy.
[0048] In some embodiments of this utility model, the transparent cover plate 2 includes, but is not limited to, transparent PVC plates or other transparent plastic plates or glass plates.
[0049] This application also discloses a flywheel housing, which includes a flywheel housing body and the aforementioned observation window cover structure. An observation window is provided on the flywheel housing body, and the observation window cover structure is installed at the observation window.
[0050] This application also discloses an engine, which includes an engine body, a flywheel, and the aforementioned flywheel housing, with the flywheel housing covering the outside of the flywheel.
[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
