Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engines, and in particular to an engine filter. Background Technology
[0002] In engine technology, the fuel filter is an indispensable component during engine operation. Its main function is to filter the fuel delivered from the fuel tank to the injection pump, ensuring clean fuel passes through. Due to fuel quality or environmental factors, after a period of use, the fuel filter element will accumulate more impurities after filtering the fuel, affecting the fuel supply rate and cleanliness. Therefore, the fuel filter element must be replaced. Since the fuel filter is connected to the fuel tank via the fuel outlet pipe, fuel leakage is unavoidable during fuel filter removal, wasting fuel, polluting the environment, and potentially soiling the operator.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an engine filter to overcome the defects mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an engine filter that solves the problem of fuel continuing to flow out of the fuel passage of the fuel filter when the filter screen is replaced, thereby preventing fuel leakage and solving the problems of environmental pollution caused by fuel leakage and the operator being easily soiled by fuel.
[0005] According to one aspect of this utility model, an engine filter is provided, including a cover, an oil leak prevention assembly, a housing, and a filter element. The cover includes an oil inlet chamber and an oil outlet chamber. The oil leak prevention assembly is placed inside the cover and communicates with the oil inlet chamber. The housing is placed below the oil leak prevention assembly and connected to the cover. The filter element is placed inside the housing and communicates with the oil leak prevention assembly. The oil leak prevention assembly includes an oil leak prevention bracket, a spring, and an oil leak prevention plug. The oil leak prevention bracket is placed in the oil inlet chamber and includes a spring bracket, a sealing plate, and an oil inlet bracket arranged sequentially. The spring is sleeved on the spring bracket, and the oil leak prevention plug is sleeved on the oil inlet bracket. When the engine filter is working normally, fuel flows through the oil inlet chamber, through the spring bracket, the sealing plate, and the oil inlet bracket, and further flows through the space between the oil inlet bracket and the oil leak prevention plug to the filter element for fuel filtration. When replacing the filter element, the filter element is removed, and the oil leak prevention bracket moves downward under the action of the spring until the sealing plate abuts against the oil leak prevention plug, blocking the fuel from the oil inlet bracket and preventing the fuel from continuing to flow from the oil inlet bracket. The above solution solves the problem of fuel continuing to flow out of the engine filter fuel passage when the filter screen is replaced, thus preventing fuel leakage. At the same time, the solution is simple and practical, which can improve the comfort of engine operators.

It should be noted that, in the following description, the direction indicated by the straight line is designated as "up" of the filter (see reference). Figure 2 Set the direction indicated by the straight line to "down" for the filter (see reference). Figure 2 ).
[0032] See Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment provides an engine filter, including a cover 1, an oil leak prevention assembly 2, a housing 6, a filter element 5, a nut 4, and a housing sealing gasket 3. The cover 1 includes an oil inlet chamber 11, an oil outlet chamber 13, and an exhaust chamber 12 connected to the oil outlet chamber 13. The oil leak prevention assembly 2 is placed inside the cover 1 and communicates with the oil inlet chamber 11. The housing 6 is placed below the oil leak prevention assembly 2 and connected to the cover 1. The filter element 5 is placed inside the housing 6 and communicates with the oil leak prevention assembly 2. The filter element 5 includes a cover plate 51 that abuts against the oil leak prevention bracket 22 and a filter portion 52 placed below the cover plate 51. The cover plate 51 has a through portion (not shown) that extends in the vertical direction. The nut 4 is sleeved on the housing 6 and the cover 1 to fasten the housing 6 and the cover 1, thereby achieving fastening and sealing of the filter. The housing sealing gasket 3 is placed between the cover 1 and the housing 6, which helps to improve the sealing effect of the filter.
[0033] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the oil leak prevention assembly 2 includes an oil leak prevention bracket 22, a spring 21, an oil leak prevention plug 24, and a plug sealing gasket 23. The oil leak prevention bracket 22 is placed in the oil inlet chamber 11. The oil leak prevention bracket 22 includes a spring bracket 221, a sealing plate 222, and an oil inlet bracket 223 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The spring 21 is sleeved on the spring bracket 221, the oil leak prevention plug 24 is sleeved on the oil inlet bracket 223, and the plug sealing gasket 23 is sleeved on the upper part of the oil leak prevention plug 24. When the engine filter is working normally, fuel flows through the oil inlet chamber 11, passing through the spring bracket 221, the sealing plate 222, and the oil inlet bracket 223. The fuel flows further through the space between the inlet bracket 223 and the anti-leakage block 24 to the filter element 5 for fuel filtration. After passing through the filter element 5, the fuel is discharged from the outlet chamber 13. When replacing the filter element 5, the filter element 5 is removed, and the anti-leakage bracket 22 moves downward under the force of the spring 21 until the sealing plate 222 abuts against the anti-leakage block 24. The sealing gasket 23 of the block abuts against the sealing plate 222, blocking the fuel from the inlet bracket 223 and preventing the fuel from continuing to flow from the inlet bracket 223. This solves the problem that fuel will continue to flow out of the fuel passage of the engine filter when the filter screen is replaced, and avoids fuel leakage.
[0034] See Figure 4As shown, the oil inlet chamber 11 includes a first chamber 112, a second chamber 113, and a third chamber 114 whose diameters gradually increase from top to bottom. The spring 21 is placed in the second chamber 113. The oil inlet chamber 11 also includes a connecting chamber 111 placed above the first chamber 112 and connected to the oil inlet pipe 7. The anti-leakage bracket 22 is placed in the third chamber 114, and the anti-leakage block 24 is placed in the third chamber 114 and is interference-fitted with the third chamber 114, thereby limiting the anti-leakage block 24. When the filter element 5 is replaced, the filter element 5 is removed, and the anti-leakage bracket 22 moves downward under the force of the spring 21 until the sealing plate 222 abuts against the anti-leakage block 24. The sealing gasket 23 of the block abuts against the sealing plate 222, blocking the fuel from the oil inlet bracket 223. At this time, a sealed space is formed in the third chamber 114, thereby preventing the fuel from continuing to flow from the oil inlet bracket 223, and also preventing the fuel from leaking out from non-oil inlet positions.
[0035] See Figure 5 As shown, the anti-leakage block 24 includes a first column 214, a second column 242, and a third column 243 whose outer diameters gradually increase from top to bottom. The second column 242 is interference-fitted with the third cavity 114. The anti-leakage block 24 has a block cavity 244 that runs vertically through the middle. The connecting part is connected to the block cavity 244. Fuel flows to the filter part 52 through the connecting part, so that fuel can enter the filter element 5.
[0036] The diameter of the sealing plate 222 is smaller than the diameter of the third cavity 114, and the diameter of the sealing plate 222 is larger than the diameter of the first column 214. This design helps to better seal the oil inlet when replacing the filter element 5, preventing fuel leakage.
[0037] See Figure 6 As shown, the fuel inlet bracket 223 includes a through portion 2231 located on the side of the fuel inlet bracket 223. The through portion 2231 is placed inside the plug cavity 244, and fuel flows to the filter element 5 through the space between the through portion 2231 and the plug cavity 244. This structure enables smooth fuel intake.
[0038] This embodiment provides an engine filter, including a cover 1, an oil leak prevention component 2, a housing 6, and a filter element 5. The cover 1 includes an oil inlet chamber 11 and an oil outlet chamber 13. The oil leak prevention component 2 is connected to the oil inlet chamber 11. When replacing the filter element 5, the oil leak prevention bracket 22 moves downward under the force of the spring 21, so that the sealing plate 222 abuts against the oil leak prevention block 23, preventing fuel from continuing to flow downward from the oil inlet bracket 223 and avoiding fuel leakage.
[0039] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, it is intended that the present invention cover modifications and variations falling within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
