Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oil pump technology, and in particular to an oil pump with dual drive function. Background Technology

[0002] The oil pump, as a core component of the engine, plays a crucial role in engine performance. Traditional oil pumps are driven solely by the engine crankshaft. At low temperatures, the oil's fluidity decreases, leading to increased viscosity and thus increased pump resistance. This results in ineffective lubrication of parts requiring lubrication during cold starts, increasing friction, accelerating wear on components, reducing engine performance and lifespan, increasing fuel consumption, and even causing difficulty starting the engine. Therefore, current technology uses an electric motor to initially drive the oil pump. However, this switching mechanism is complex and cumbersome, requiring the disconnection of engine power when the motor drives the pump, and vice versa, increasing costs. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] See Figures 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] An oil pump with dual-drive function includes a drive gear 1, a driven gear 2, a first input shaft 3, a second input shaft 4, a pump body assembly, and a transmission separation assembly. Both the drive gear 1 and the driven gear 2 are rotatably mounted within the pump body assembly, and the drive gear 1 meshes with the driven gear 2. One end of the first input shaft 3 is located within the pump body assembly and is drively connected to one end of the drive gear 1 via the transmission separation assembly. One end of the second input shaft 4 is located within the pump body assembly and is drively connected to the other end of the drive gear 1 via the transmission separation assembly. The pump body assembly houses the drive gear 1, the driven gear 2, the first input shaft 3, the second input shaft 4, and the transmission separation assembly. The drive gear 1 and the driven gear 2 work together to convert incoming low-pressure oil into high-pressure oil for discharge. The first input shaft 3 transmits power from the engine to the drive gear 1, and the second input shaft 4 transmits power from the electric motor to the drive gear 1. When the first input shaft 3 transmits power to the driving gear 1 through the transmission separation assembly, the power between the driving gear 1 and the second input shaft 4 is cut off by the transmission separation assembly between the driven gear 1 and the second input shaft 4; when the second input shaft 4 transmits power to the driving gear 1 through the transmission separation assembly, the power between the driving gear 1 and the first input shaft 3 is cut off by the transmission separation assembly between the driving gear 1 and the first input shaft 3.

[0027] In some embodiments, the transmission separation assembly includes a connecting outer ring 5, an inner ring protrusion 6, a connecting end 7, a limiting protrusion 8, a rotating rod 9, and a one-way clamping block 10. The limiting protrusion 8 is fixedly disposed on the middle of the connecting end 7. One end of the rotating rod 9 is rotatably disposed on the connecting end 7, and the other end of the rotating rod 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the one-way clamping block 10. The one-way clamping block 10 cooperates with the limiting protrusion 8, and the other end of the limiting protrusion 8 cooperates with the inner ring protrusion 6. The inner ring protrusion 6 is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the connecting outer ring 5. The connecting outer ring 5 is coaxially fixedly disposed on both ends of the drive gear 1, and the connecting end 7 is fixedly disposed on the ends of the first input shaft 3 and the second input shaft 4. The limiting protrusion 8 restricts the rotation of the one-way clamping block 10, and the rotating rod 9 drives the one-way clamping block 10. The one-way clamping block 10 and the inner ring protrusion 6 clamp together to achieve force transmission, and the one-way clamping block 10 and the inner ring protrusion 6 relax to achieve force cutoff.

[0028] In some embodiments, two inner ring protrusions 6 are centrally symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the outer ring 5. The two inner ring protrusions 6 respectively cooperate with two one-way clamping blocks 10, which are respectively disposed on two rotating rods 9. The presence of two inner ring protrusions 6, two rotating rods 9, and two one-way clamping blocks 10 arranged centrally symmetrically ensures that the transmission separation assembly is subjected to uniform force during the high-speed rotation of the drive gear 1, preventing uneven force distribution from causing wear and damage to the transmission separation assembly.

[0029] In some embodiments, the drive gear 1, the first input shaft 3, and the second input shaft 4 are coaxially arranged. This coaxial arrangement facilitates installation, promotes force transmission, and simplifies the overall structure.

[0030] In some embodiments, the driving gear 1 is provided with external teeth, and the driven gear 2 is provided with internal teeth that mesh with the external teeth. The driving gear 1 and the driven gear 2 cooperate to form an internal meshing gear pump.

[0031] In some embodiments, the pump assembly includes a pump body 11 and a pump cover 12. The pump body 11 has a pump chamber that meshes with a driven gear 2. The pump cover 12, which is sealed to fit with the pump body 11, is provided on the pump chamber. The pump cover 12 has a low-pressure oil inlet 13 communicating with the pump chamber. The pump body 11 has a high-pressure oil outlet 14 communicating with the pump chamber. A first input shaft 3 is rotatably mounted on the pump cover 12, and a second input shaft 4 is rotatably mounted on the pump body 11. The pump body 11 and the pump cover 12 are fixedly connected by bolts 17. The pump chamber is used to install the drive gear 1 and the driven gear 2. The drive gear 1 and the driven gear 2 mesh to pressurize the low-pressure hydraulic oil entering through the low-pressure oil inlet 13 and discharge high-pressure hydraulic oil through the high-pressure oil outlet 14. The pump body 11 and the pump cover 12 are sealed to each other and fixed together by bolts 17 as used in the prior art.

[0032] In some embodiments, a first bearing 15 is provided between the first input shaft 3 and the pump cover 12, and a second bearing 16 is provided between the second input shaft 4 and the pump body 11. Both the first bearing 15 and the second bearing 16 are deep groove ball bearings in the prior art. The first input shaft 3 is fixed to the pump cover 12 by the first bearing 15, and the second input shaft 4 is fixed to the pump body 11 by the second bearing 16.
