BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0015] Figure 1 is a schematic view of an embodiment of the utility model of an engine;
[0016] Figure 2 is Figure 1 a front view of the flange surface of the box and the sealing gasket;
[0017] Figure 3 is Figure 2 a local enlarged view of A. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The following will be further described in detail through specific embodiments:
[0019] The reference signs in the drawings of the specification include: box 1, box flange surface 2, first sealing area 31, second sealing area 32, cylinder body 4, reinforcing rib 5.
[0020] The embodiment is basically as shown in the accompanying Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown: an engine, comprising a box 1, the box 1 is connected with a cylinder body 4. In this embodiment, the cylinder body 4 is arranged obliquely and is integrally formed with the upper part of the box 1. The box 1 is connected with a box cover (not shown) on the side of the cylinder body 4. A sealing gasket is arranged between the box flange surface 2 of the box 1 and the flange surface of the box cover. The box flange surface 2 and the flange surface of the box cover are the same in shape and size. The sealing gasket comprises a first sealing area 31 and a second sealing area 32. The relative sliding amount of the box 1 and the box cover at the first sealing area 31 is greater than that at the second sealing area 32. The inner side contour or the outer side contour of the first sealing area 31 along the projection perpendicular to the box flange surface 2 is recessed towards the middle part of the box flange surface 2 to form a recessed area. The width of the recessed area is at least 5% of the width of the corresponding box flange surface 2 of the first sealing area 31.
[0021] In this embodiment, it is preferred that the outer side contour and the inner side contour of the first sealing area 31 of the sealing gasket are both recessed towards the middle part of the box flange surface 2, so that the inner and outer edges of the sealing gasket at the first sealing area 31 are narrowed towards the middle part of the box flange surface 2, and the width of the sealing gasket at the first sealing area 31 is smaller than the width of the corresponding box flange surface 2. After the box cover is connected with the box 1, there is a certain gap between the inner and outer edges of the first sealing area 31 of the sealing gasket and the inner and outer edges of the box flange surface 2, which is beneficial to further avoid the damage of the edges of the box flange surface 2 to the edges of the sealing gasket, and can also increase the surface pressure between the box flange surface 2, the flange surface of the box cover and the sealing gasket, thereby improving the sealing effect. In this embodiment, the width L2 of the region of the first sealing area 31 of the sealing gasket close to the cylinder body 4 is reduced by a proportion of not less than 5% relative to the width L1 of the box flange surface 2, such as 6%, 7%, 8% and the like.
[0022] In this embodiment, the first sealing area 31 is located at the region of the box 1 close to the cylinder body 4. A reinforcing rib 5 is arranged on the box 1 at the side close to the flange surface 2 of the box 1, and the reinforcing rib 5 is connected with the cylinder body 4. In this embodiment, the reinforcing rib 5 is integrally formed with the box 1 and the cylinder body 4. The reinforcing rib 5 is arranged extending along the flange surface 2 of the box 1.
[0023] By using this scheme, when the box 1 and the box cover slide relative to each other, the damage of the edges of the flange surface 2 to the sealing gasket can be reduced, thereby reducing the leakage phenomenon caused by the damage of the sealing gasket and improving the sealing performance of the engine. At the same time, through the arrangement of the reinforcing rib 5, the stiffness of the side of the box 1 close to the flange surface 2 is enhanced, thereby reducing the relative sliding amount of the flange fitting surface between the box 1 and the box cover at the position close to the cylinder body 4 of the box 1, which is beneficial to further reduce the damage of the edges of the flange surface 2 to the edges of the sealing gasket, thereby further reducing the leakage phenomenon caused by the damage of the sealing gasket and improving the sealing performance of the engine.
[0024] The above is only the embodiment of the present application, and the well-known specific structure and characteristics and other common knowledge in the scheme are not described in detail. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the structure of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application, and these will not affect the effect and practicality of the present application.
