[0021] The utility model will be further explained in detail in conjunction with specific implementation and contrast drawing.It should be emphasized that the following explanation is only exemplary, and is not for limiting the scope of the utility model and its application.

[0022] Non-limiting and non-exclusive embodiments will be described with reference to the following figures, wherein the same reference numerals denote the same parts unless otherwise specifically stated.

[0023] like Figures 1-5 The diagram illustrates a camshaft frame structure for improving NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness). It includes a frame 2 and a cylinder head 1. The frame 2 is bolted to the top surface of the cylinder head 1, and the frame 2 and the top surface of the cylinder head 1 are tightly fitted together to achieve a seal. Several camshaft bearing seats are arranged side-by-side within the frame 2. Each camshaft bearing seat has a lower camshaft bearing hole 26 at its upper part and is connected to the cylinder head 1 at its lower side. Generally, the camshaft bearing seat closest to the rear of the engine is designated as the first-stage bearing seat, and second-stage, third-stage, ..., and last-stage bearing seats are arranged along the length of the frame 2. For example, in this embodiment, seven bearing seats are provided, including a first-stage bearing seat 23, a second-stage bearing seat 24, and so on, up to the seventh-stage bearing seat 25. The lower sides of the second-stage to last-stage bearing seats are partially recessed to form openings 27, reducing the contact area between the camshaft bearing seats and the upper side of the cylinder head 1, thereby reducing noise and optimizing NVH. After the camshaft frame 2 is fixed to the cylinder head 1, a gap is formed between the camshaft bearing housing recess area and the cylinder head 1. Mounting holes 22 for mounting the camshaft are also provided at both ends of the frame 2.
