Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fuel filtration technology for internal combustion locomotives, and specifically relates to a fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives. Background Technology

[0002] The fuel filtration system of an internal combustion engine locomotive is a crucial system for ensuring fuel cleanliness and protecting core engine components. It mainly consists of a two-stage filtration system comprised of a coarse fuel filter and a fine fuel filter. The fuel filter is one type of fuel filtration system in an internal combustion engine locomotive.

[0003] Fuel filters are key components in the fuel systems of internal combustion engines (such as cars, trucks, ships, and construction machinery). Their core function is to filter impurities and moisture from the fuel, ensuring the cleanliness of the fuel entering the engine, thereby protecting the engine's precision components, improving combustion efficiency, and extending its service life.

[0004] In actual operation, existing internal combustion engine fuel filtration systems require pressure regulation via a built-in safety valve to ensure system safety when the internal fuel pressure abnormally rises above the design threshold due to various reasons. However, during this pressure regulation process, fuel bypasses the filter media and flows directly through the safety valve's pressure relief channel, resulting in the fuel failing to filter any impurities during this period. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives, which aims to solve the problem in the prior art where, when the internal fuel pressure rises abnormally to exceed the design threshold, the built-in safety valve is needed to regulate the pressure to ensure system safety. During this pressure regulation process, the fuel bypasses the filter medium and flows directly through the pressure relief channel of the safety valve, resulting in the fuel being unable to achieve any impurity filtration effect during this period.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives, comprising: an outer shell for bearing and protection, an outer shell cover fitted over the opening of the outer shell, oil inlets arranged in a ring array on the surface of the outer shell cover, an outer sealing ring connected to the end of the outer shell cover for fixing the outer shell cover, a filter cartridge disposed inside the outer shell, a filter paper core connected to the outer surface of the filter cartridge, a check valve connected to the inner wall of the outer shell cover and sealingly abutting against the filter cartridge, an alloy spring connected to the inner wall of the outer shell and abutting against the filter cartridge, and a safety valve assembly connected to the inner wall of the filter cartridge and connected to the inner wall of the outer shell; the inner wall of the outer shell is connected to a cleaning component for cleaning the inner wall.

[0007] The safety valve assembly includes a plugging part connected to the inner wall of the filter cartridge, a guide part connected between the plugging part and the filter cartridge, and a sealing part connected between the plugging part and the outer shell.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives according to this utility model, the sealing part includes a spring strip connected to the inner wall of the filter cartridge, a cap connected to the end of the spring strip and inserted into the opening of the filter cartridge, and a first sealing ring connected to the side surface of the cap and abutting against the inner wall of the filter cartridge.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives according to this utility model, the end surface of the cover is further provided with filter holes.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives according to this utility model, the guide portion includes a guide hole formed on the surface of the cover and a guide rod that passes through the guide hole and is connected to the inner wall of the filter cartridge.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives according to this utility model, the sealing part includes a cylinder connected to the inner wall of the outer shell and a second sealing ring connected to the inner wall of the cylinder and abutting against the cover.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the fuel filtration mechanism for internal combustion locomotives according to this utility model, the cleaning component includes an annular plate disposed on the inner wall of the outer shell, two sets of scrapers connected to the side wall of the annular plate and arranged in a spiral shape, a limiting part disposed between the two sets of scrapers and the outer shell, and a connecting plate connected to the other side of the annular plate and arranged in a ring array.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] In this invention, the cap can compress the spring strip when it is squeezed. When the cap moves to the outside of the second sealing ring, fuel can enter the interior of the filter cartridge through the filter holes on the surface of the cap, thereby accelerating the flow of fuel and filtering out large particulate impurities when the oil pressure exceeds the threshold and oil is released.

[0016] In this invention, fuel is injected into the interior of the outer casing through the inlet and impacts the connecting plate.

[0026] The safety valve assembly 2 includes a plugging part 21 connected to the inner wall of the filter cartridge 14, a guide part 22 connected between the plugging part 21 and the filter cartridge 14, and a sealing part 23 connected between the plugging part 21 and the outer casing 11.

[0027] Fuel enters the interior of filter cartridge 14 through inlet 18, then enters the inner wall through filter paper core 15 and through the round hole of filter cartridge 14, and then the filtered fuel is discharged through the outlet in the middle of outer cover 12.

[0029] In practical use, when the oil pressure inside the filter cartridge 14 exceeds the threshold, the cover 212 can be squeezed, and when the cover 212 is squeezed, the spring strip 211 can be compressed.

[0030] Preferably, the end surface of the cap 212 is also provided with filter holes 214.

When the cover 212 moves to the outside of the second sealing ring 232, the fuel can enter the interior of the filter cartridge 14 through the filter holes 214 on the surface of the cover 212, thereby accelerating the flow of fuel and filtering large particulate impurities when the oil pressure exceeds the threshold and oil is released.
