[0002] The prior art engine valve rocker arm structure, reference Figure 1 , mainly has the following several shortcomings.

[0003] I. The iron filings generated in the movement process cannot be removed and are prone to wear: since the valve push rod of the traditional rocker arm structure is an upper horn mouth, the iron filings generated in the wear process are all deposited in the horn mouth and cannot be removed, and the iron filings can cause the wear to intensify.

[0004] II. The valve clearance becomes large after long-time operation, the performance deteriorates, and the energy consumption is poor: since the iron filings cannot be quickly removed during the wear process, the rocker arm wear will inevitably intensify. After long-time operation, the valve clearance will become large, the valve opening and closing cannot meet the design requirements, the performance emission deteriorates, and the fuel energy consumption is high.

[0005] III. The oil film is uneven, the heat dissipation capacity is poor, and the oil consumption is large: since the oil is all deposited in the upper horn mouth of the push rod, the valve adjusting screw is also all soaked in the oil, and during the operation process, the oil will inevitably splash everywhere, the oil consumption is large, the oil film thickness is thick, the oil circulation capacity is poor, and the heat dissipation effect is poor.

[0006] In summary, in the prior art, the valve push rod of the engine valve rocker arm structure is an upper horn mouth, the iron filings generated in the wear process are deposited in the horn mouth, and then the wear intensifies, the valve clearance becomes large, and problems such as performance emission deterioration, high oil consumption, and poor heat dissipation effect are caused.

[0009] Further, the top of the valve push rod is a spherical ball shape that matches the horn mouth of the lower end of the valve clearance adjusting screw.

[0010] In the above technical solution, the novel engine rocker arm structure has the beneficial effects that:

[0011] The valve push rod's trumpet mouth is optimized to the valve clearance adjusting screw, the structure can quickly flush away the iron filings generated in the movement process of the valve clearance adjusting screw and the valve push rod, can quickly take away the heat generated in the movement process, makes the lubricating oil film uniform, the wear uniform, the energy loss small, the heat dissipation effect good, the structure simple, the reliability good and the like.
