[0002] As a core sealing component of the engine's valve train, the valve stem seal's function is to prevent engine oil from seeping into the combustion chamber through the valve guide gap, while also preventing high-temperature exhaust gases from backflowing into the engine. The quality of the seal's installation directly affects the engine's oil consumption, emissions, and the lifespan of the valve assembly. Misalignment, lip damage, or incorrect insertion depth during installation can easily lead to seal failure, causing serious malfunctions such as oil burning, increased carbon buildup, and even valve sticking.

[0003] The existing method for installing valve stem seals involves creating a round bar of suitable size based on the dimensions of the valve stem seal mounting holes. During assembly, the valve stem seal is carefully placed into the mounting hole by hand, one end of the round bar is used to hold the valve stem seal in place, and then the other end of the round bar is gently tapped with a rubber mallet to carefully hammer the valve stem seal into place. This installation method is time-consuming, has low assembly efficiency, and cannot guarantee the alignment of the valve stem seal, making it difficult to guarantee the assembly accuracy of the valve stem seal. This also poses a safety hazard to the engine. Furthermore, different diameter round bars are required to be made for different valve stem seal mounting hole dimensions in the engine cylinder head, which increases the assembly cost.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See Figure 1-3 A valve stem seal press-fitting fixture includes a press-fitting body 1. The press-fitting body 1 has a first stepped hole 2, and the inner wall of the first stepped hole 2 has an internal thread. A threaded connecting sleeve 4 is connected to the internal thread of the first stepped hole 2. During press-fitting, the valve stem seal is installed in the threaded connecting sleeve 4. The threaded connecting sleeve 4 and the press-fitting body 1 are detachably connected by a threaded connection. The threaded connecting sleeve 4 can be replaced with one that is suitable for the size of the valve stem seal, thus expanding the application range of the fixture. A second stepped hole 3 is provided at the top of the first stepped hole 2. The diameter of the second stepped hole 3 is smaller than the diameter of the first stepped hole 2, and the diameter of the second stepped hole 3 is larger than the diameter of the valve stem. During the press-fitting of the valve stem seal, it makes way for the valve stem. The first stepped hole 2 and the second stepped hole 3 are connected by a threaded connecting sleeve 4. A stepped surface 14 is formed between the two stepped holes 3. The end face of the threaded connecting sleeve 4 fits against the stepped surface 14. The inner diameter of the second stepped hole 3 is smaller than the inner diameter of the threaded connecting sleeve 4. A rubber pad 5 is provided on the stepped surface inside the threaded connecting sleeve 4. During press fitting, the valve oil seal will be subjected to downward pressure from the press fitting body 1. The rubber pad 5 on the stepped surface 14 can play a buffering role to prevent the valve oil seal from deforming and being damaged during the press fitting process. A stamping device is provided at the top of the press fitting body 1. The stamping device includes a sleeve 6 and a movable rod 7. The movable rod 7 is movably inserted into the sleeve 6, and the movable rod 7 and the sleeve 6 are clearance fit. A pressure head 8 adapted to the sleeve 6 is provided at the bottom of the movable rod 7. The pressure head 8 is movably inserted into the sleeve 6.

[0022] During press-fitting, the valve stem seal is first installed inside the threaded connecting sleeve 4, with the end face of the valve stem seal in contact with the stepped surface 14. Then, it is aligned with the valve stem to be installed. At this time, the operator holds the press shaft body 1 with one hand and the handle 10 with the other. Then, the movable rod 7 is moved downward through the handle 10, and the press head 8 impacts the bottom of the sleeve 6, so that the press body 1 is subjected to downward pressure, thereby moving the valve stem seal downward, thus achieving the purpose of installing the valve stem seal onto the valve stem. The downward force generated by the impact of the press head 8 and the bottom of the sleeve 6 achieves the purpose of quickly installing the valve stem seal, effectively improving assembly efficiency. This tooling can be adapted to valve stem seals of various sizes by changing the threaded connecting sleeve 4 of different sizes, effectively improving its applicability.

[0023] In this embodiment, the pressure head 8 is provided with at least one vent hole 9 that axially penetrates the pressure head 8. When the pressure head 8 is pressed down, the space between the pressure head 8 and the bottom of the sleeve 6 is reduced. The air volume inside remains unchanged, which will cause a certain resistance to the stamping. Therefore, when the pressure head 8 is pressed down, the air can be discharged from the vent hole 9.

[0024] In this embodiment, the top of the movable rod 7 is provided with a "T"-shaped handle 10, which makes it easy for the operator to grip the movable rod 7.

[0025] In this embodiment, a protective pad 11 is provided on the outer wall of the handle 10. The protective pad 11 can be a flexible material with cushioning properties, such as rubber. When the operator installs the valve stem seal, he / she needs to hold the handle 10. When he / she exerts force downward, the pressure head 8 impacts the spherical surface 12 at the bottom of the sleeve 6. The shock generated during the impact will be fed back to the operator's hand. When installing multiple valve stem seals, the long-term shock will cause the operator's hand to become numb. The protective pad 11 can play a certain shock absorption role and provide a certain degree of protection for the operator.

[0026] In this embodiment, the bottom of the sleeve 6 is provided with a spherical surface 12, and the bottom of the pressure head 8 is provided with an arc groove 13 adapted to the spherical surface 12, so that the pressure body 1 is subjected to uniform force, the impact force is evenly distributed, and some stress concentration is reduced, effectively extending the service life of the device; and when impacted, the spherical structure formed by the spherical surface 12 and the arc groove 13 can reduce the rebound caused by the impact.

[0027] In this embodiment, the central axes of the first stepped hole 2, the second stepped hole 3, the spherical surface 12, and the arc groove 13 are all on the same straight line, ensuring that the valve stem seal is subjected to uniform force during press-fitting and avoiding displacement during the press-fitting process, which could lead to damage to the valve stem seal or valve rod.

[0028] In this embodiment, the anti-slip texture on the circumferential surface of the upper part of the pressing body 1 prevents the operator's hand from slipping during the pressing process when the valve oil seal is pressed.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present utility model. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effectiveness of the present utility model or the practicality of the patent.
