Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power output, and in particular to a cylinder head and engine of an engine. Background Technology
[0002] For small air-cooled engines, features such as high RPM, strong combustion pressure, and forced air cooling meet various usage requirements. The cylinder head, in particular, has multiple functional requirements and a complex structure. The design of cylinder head cooling and its cooling ducts has always been a key challenge in the development of air-cooled engines. Furthermore, the main manufacturing process for the cylinder head is die-cast aluminum, so the structural design must consider the requirements of this process on the cylinder head's structure. Inadequate structural design can affect its processing and molding, increase cooling air loss, leading to uneven cooling, low cooling efficiency, and ultimately affecting the cylinder head's strength.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an engine cylinder head and an engine to overcome the defects mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an engine cylinder head and engine that reduces cooling air loss, efficiently and evenly guides cooling air to the cooling duct, and enhances cooling efficiency and cylinder head strength.
[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, an engine cylinder head is provided, with the side of the engine where the fan is installed as the rear, including a cylinder head, an intake manifold, an exhaust manifold, a cooling air inlet, a cooling air duct, a guide vane, and a cooling air outlet.
[0006] The cylinder head includes a rear end face facing the fan and a front end face away from the fan; the intake manifold extends from the rear end face into the cylinder head and is connected to the engine cylinder to draw air into the cylinder for compression ignition; the exhaust manifold extends from the front end face into the cylinder head and is connected to the muffler to exhaust exhaust gases after engine combustion; the cooling air inlet is located on the right side of the cylinder head and near the rear end face to deliver air to the cylinder head to cool the high-temperature area of the exhaust manifold; the cooling air duct is located inside the cylinder head and is connected to the cooling air inlet.
[0007] The cooling air duct includes a first air duct and a second air duct. The first air duct extends along the cooling air inlet toward the front end face, and the second air duct is connected to the first air duct and extends along the right side of the cylinder head to the left.
[0008] The guide vane includes a first guide vane placed in the first air duct and extending in the vertical direction, the first guide vane being used to divide the first air duct into a first main air duct and a first auxiliary air duct; the cooling air outlet is connected to the second air duct and is used to exhaust the air from the cooling air duct.
[0009] The above scheme allows the airflow entering the cooling duct to be directly guided to the cooling duct without loss, reducing the loss of cooling air and increasing heat dissipation efficiency. At the same time, the increase in the number of guide plates increases the strength of the cylinder head and reduces the stress deformation of the cylinder head.
[0010] Preferably, the first guide vane includes a first end near the cooling air inlet and a second end away from the cooling air inlet, with the second end forming a first air outlet between it and the cylinder head, and the air from the first auxiliary air duct reaching the second air duct through the first air outlet.
[0011] Preferably, the guide plate further includes a second guide plate placed in the second air duct and near the second end. The second guide plate separates the second air duct into a second air outlet on the side near the first guide plate. The air from the first air outlet and the air from the first main air duct converge at the second air outlet and continue to flow into the second air duct.
[0012] Preferably, the deflector also includes a third deflector and a fourth deflector arranged sequentially alongside the second deflector in the front-rear direction. A third air vent is formed between the third deflector and the second deflector, a fourth air vent is formed between the third deflector and the fourth deflector, and a fifth air vent is formed between the fourth deflector and the outer wall of the intake duct. The air from the first main air duct also flows to the second air duct through the third, fourth, and fifth air vents. The above scheme helps to guide the cooling air, optimize the distribution of airflow, improve heat dissipation efficiency, and enhance the strength of the cylinder head.
[0013] Preferably, the cooling air duct further includes a third air duct connecting the second air duct and the cooling air outlet.
[0014] Preferably, the cylinder head further includes a fifth guide vane and a sixth guide vane disposed in the third air duct, the fifth and sixth guide vanes being arranged in a V-shape. This design helps to improve heat dissipation efficiency and enhance the strength of the cylinder head.
[0015] Preferably, the cooling air outlet is located on the left side of the cylinder head, and the cooling air outlet includes a first cooling air outlet near the front end face and a second cooling air outlet near the rear end face. The fifth guide plate is disposed towards the first cooling air outlet, and the sixth guide plate is disposed towards the second cooling air outlet.
[0016] Preferably, the cylinder head further includes bolt holes penetrating the cylinder head, including a first bolt hole and a second bolt hole located on both sides of the intake manifold and near the rear end face, and a third bolt hole and a fourth bolt hole located on both sides of the exhaust manifold and near the front end face, with the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole located on the right side of the cylinder head relative to the second bolt hole and the fourth bolt hole.
[0017] Preferably, the second end is close to the third bolt hole. This design improves the strength of the cylinder head and helps to prevent deformation at the location of the third bolt hole.
[0018] Preferably, the second guide plate is positioned between the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole.
[0019] Preferably, the cylinder head further includes an injector mounting hole through the cooling air duct for mounting an injector; preferably, the cylinder head further includes a pushrod chamber located on the left side of the cylinder head.
[0020] Preferably, an engine includes a cylinder block, a crankcase, a muffler, a fan, and a cylinder head as described above, wherein the cylinder head is fixed above the cylinder block, the crankcase is located below the cylinder block, and the muffler is connected to the cylinder head.
[0021] Preferably, an air-cooled single-cylinder engine includes a cylinder block, a crankcase, a muffler, and a cylinder head as described above. The cylinder head is fixed above the cylinder block, the crankcase is placed below the cylinder block, and the muffler is connected to the cylinder head.
[0022] This utility model provides a cylinder head machine and an engine. By designing the engine cylinder head, the cooling air entering the cylinder head can be guided directly to the cooling air duct with minimal loss, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency. Furthermore, gaps are left at both ends of the guide vanes, so that a small amount of cooling air can still be dissipated at the original air loss points of the air duct. At the same time, the addition of guide vanes to the upper and lower body cavities increases the overall strength, reduces the stress deformation of the cylinder head, and improves the strength of the cylinder head.
